Today marked the first leg of my adventure. Today we flew out of Utah to California, where we hung out for the day before we go to Hawaii tomorrow. It has been a really exhausting day and I am ready to be done with it (its almost time to be done).
This morning started really early, for good reason. I was waiting fro Brendan to come over before he had to go to church, and I had to be packed because we were supposed to leave our house at 9:15. Let me tell you, being with Brendan for that short time made my day. I got to be around him and have his arms around me - I was perfectly content. We said goodbye again and the second I left his side, I broke down and cried for a good 10 minutes.
We flew out at like 11:30 ish and got here about 12:30 local time. My grandpa picked us up from the airport and we went to explore Los Angeles. We went to a place called Norms for lunch and it was pretty cheap and a ton of food. We went around some of Hollywood and then to a place, I don't remember the name, but you ordered cookies and they made cookie and ice cream sandwiches. It was really delicious :).
We went to the Griffith Observatory and it was quite interesting. It had a pendulum and was all about the planets and stuff like that. People were parking like a mile away, and the walk there was all uphill just to look at the LA Basin. We got a good spot and the view was pretty cool, but not worth walking that far.
We were going to go to the beach after, but it was too late, so we came back to the hotel. Its kind of in a creepy part of town, but its a bed, so its okay.
Well, tomorrow we fly to Hawaii. I am really nervous, and it is going to set in for reals that I am going to live 3000 miles away from everyone I know. It makes me sad, but I really want to go to school there and I know that that is what is right for me at this time. It may change, but for now, I know that is where I am supposed to be.
Wish me luck. I love you all and already miss you!
