Well right now I?m on a plane heading towards St. Louis, and then on to Washington Dulles Airport. This has been a really interesting week. And probably the longest week I?ve really ever experienced. I think I saw both Scott and Kayla every single day this week. It?s really been a lot of fun, and very insightful. It?s nice to feel waned. I know I shouldn?t have read a lot of Kayla?s emails, but it?s really helped me to get to know Scott better and know that it?s okay to like him. Oh man, he looked really good when I saw him right before I left. It was such an awkward goodbye?Kimberly and Kayla wouldn?t stop pressuring me. I?m a very closed person, and that really didn?t help. I just wish his grades were better? There?s something about him. Lord, I know you?ll bring someone absolutely amazing into my life and I will know when that guy comes along. But please bring me someone like Scott. Someone who?s culturally aware. Scott and I would have so much fun together doing the random stuff that both of us like. I hope the whole dancing thing works out. It would have been a lot of fun to do the ballroom dancing thing, but we can do swing, salsa, and many others. And my house would work really well.
Lord, take this Georgetown experience and make it absolutely amazing. I want to give it to you. And help me to be patient with everyone there. It?s my first time in Washington DC! I hope it?s like ?Mr. Smith Goes to Washington?. That would be amazing. I want to grow in you. I hope I get lots of letters! Wouldn?t it be amazing to meet people and then still keep in contact with them. And I cannot lose Moen! That pen really is special to Scott.
