Today I got my permit and bought my first car… it was a milestone of a day. I was pretty nervous about going in to take the test. I studied about a month ago but haven’t touched or reviewed the manual since then. On the drive there my boyfriend gave me some helpful hints and calmed me down because I was freaking out, more so because I didn’t want to fail the test in front of him and look like an idiot. After an hour and a half I walked out of the station with my permit and lots of pride. I am pretty stoked and the best part about it is that in two days I can take the road test and get my driver’s license. I am turning 18 baby!! I met up with my dad at the car dealership to look at some cars following that. The dealer showed me some small girly cars but it just didn’t create a spark for me. Instead I ended up with the biggest truck in the lot, a Chevy Silverado in a sexy dark blue, haha. I absolutely love it and am so excited! Everybody watch out because here I come!

After almost a month of traveling I am home. I was so anxious to be back that I was pacing back and forth and sweating bullets waiting for my dad to pick me up from the airport. I was so relieved and estatic when I finally saw him pull up. It was one of the best feelings in the world to wrap my arms around him again. We talked the whole way home, giggling about all the craziness that had gone on. I got to see my little sister’s beautiful face again when I picked her up from school and she filled me in with all her gossip. She is playing volleyball, running for President and eating lots of yummy chocolate;) Very exciting isn’t it? We went surfing together this morning before school and were blessed with this beautiful rainbow. I just got this cool new app on my iPhone that takes really neat looking pictures so here are a few. Enjoy!
