Friends (and other worldly creatures),

I guess it's been quite some time since I last detailed the going-ons of my life. I do however have a pretty good excuse. (DRUMROLL) I spent this weekend doing absolutely nothing. Squat. And I have to admit, I was actually not guilt ridden about not getting anything done; instead, it was actually some much needed meditation time. As YOU know, I have been spending too much time worrying about my post-grad plans, so I thought I should do the next sane thing and actually chill.

Anyhoot, on a whole different note, I think this is by far the most gorgeous fall Pullman has ever had. First people were complaining about the heat, then they were upset about the rain and the wind. Truth be told, I LOVE windstorms! Or just storms in general. There's just something about all that chaos, and then the scary yet calm quiet right after. I stepped outside the other day, and it honestly looked like the kind of fall weather that we hear about in fairy tales, or just far off wondrous places haha. The leaves were a perfectly burnt red-orange, and they covered every single tree. I kid you not! Just breathtaking! This is just another reason why I LOVE going to school here.

On an entirely different note, we are nowhere near my birthday and I am obviously neck deep in possible plans and gift ideas haha. I mean two months away is not enough time to start planning. Actually, its more of me contemplating my gift wish list. Every year, since before the dawn of my time, my dad would have me write a wish list of all the things I want for my birthday, in order of gift attractiveness. Granted I will be turning twenty-two, so I may no longer want the usual Barbie accessory, but I guarantee you I will still be writing that list. Just as I do every year. Why break from tradition? Peace. W'Salaam.
