- i’m back in madison
- my mom is the best
- before she left the states, she bought me a ton of food for school
- like a whole rubbermaid container full of food
- that’s a lot of food, guys
- also, i’m done packing for school like 2 days early
- i might be a bit eager to get back
- therefore, i’ll just be watching a lot of project runway to pass the next few days
- maybe i’ll go thrifting too
- i’m kind of sick of free time though
- that was basically my whole summer
- i know that’ll come back to bite me in the butt come next week
- but whatever, i’m just so excited for school to start!
- i can’t wait to see my friends
- and start new classes
- which means new supplies too :)
- hooray for school starting

departurer asked: meredith i forgot to tell you - all my friends tell me i dress 80s and 90s ish!!! whatttttttttttt. forget docs or any kind of chunky boot on me though haha. meredith you should come to scad. youre way better than tons of the photo majors there! and if you came we would totally start a blog. maybe 2. a hipster one and a actually good fashion/photography blog. oh and wed be BFFS 4 LYF. i mmiss you lots <3
hope, this makes me laugh a lot, you always made fun of me for liking 80s&90s fashion!ahaha but you should seriously learn to embrace the docs, it’s like the staple item of the 90s, and they can basically be worn with anything! oooh transferring..you’re tempting me, hope..but i can’t. i can barely afford judson, how on earth would i afford scad. hahahha what ever happened to our hipster blog?? didn’t we technically start it at one point and just never kept up with it? and i think we should still start a blog together! we could totally do it even though we’re not together!! i miss you too! i think YOU should transfer to some school in chicago, so i can see you all the time :) scad is too far away :(

"The very scary thing about religion, to me, is that people actually believe God is who they think He is. By that I mean they have Him all figured out, mapped out, and as my pastor, Rick, says, ‘dissected and put into jars on a shelf.’ You’ve got a bunch of Catholics in Rome who think one way about God, and a bunch of Baptists in Texas who think another, and that isn’t even the beginning. It goes on and on and on like this, and it makes me wonder if God created us in His image or if we created Him in ours."

- gilmore girls will forever be the show that i can watch over and over and over and over ect.. without getting sick of
- also, dean is a babe
- the fact that the internet is still dying about every 20 minutes after like 2 weeks is seriously getting old
- at&t needs to get it together
- i’m finally buying a macbook, but i hate itunes(i know, i know..), so i still want to use my zune cause i like the software
- but microsoft doesn’t make zune software for mac
- figures.
- i’m so sick of people giving me weird looks when i go grocery shopping, or the checkout people asking “why doesn’t your mom do the grocery shopping?”
- like i’m too young to be there among all the moms with screaming kids or dads picking up dinner
- last time i checked, there’s no age limit to grocery shopping and cooking dinner
- i also hate when old people at church judgmentally stare too long at the tattoo on my foot but won’t say anything about it
- yes, it’s real, and no, i’m not actually going to hell because of it, please move on with your life
- i really need to get out of small town america
- and get to big city america
- or just out of america really

- remember last spring when i was freaking out over gpas and scholarships??
- well, i certainly do
- and guess what?
- thanks to my summer class, it’s now at 3.012
- basically as close as i can be to 3.0 without losing my scholarship
- and God just keeps on providing
- despite not being able to get a job this summer, i now have enough money for a much needed macbook
- i just can’t even
- i am so thankful
- i guess God always has a plan
- and His timing is perfect
- and i don’t know why i keep forgetting this
- but i can’t say i don’t like being reminded
- and now i am going to eat a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for lunch
- and watch project runway all day
- because life is good
- and i won’t be able to do that in 2 and half weeks when i’m finally back at school
- God is so good

singapore truly was the greatest
- i love college and all
- but sometimes i really miss high school
- the freedom of college is far better and i truly do love it
- but sometimes it just hits me how good i had it back then
- i think i knew it at the time too
- but i did take some things for granted
- like getting bubble tea and waffles after school with friends
- and how much we laughed in mandarin class
- and friday nights at west coast park
- and photoshoots with hope
- and jenna singing to me before school in the canteen
- and listening to the guys in my class talk nonsense about video games
- and sleepovers at cantrell’s house
- and watching guys soccer practice with rachel way back in 10th grade
- and week w/o walls
- and study hall with becca, michaela, and ryan
- and listening to ryan and kelly play music at lunch
- and getting kicked out of the teacher’s lounge by dr. beeson
- and all of our fun in ap psych class
- and long bus rides
- and CRASH
- and window shopping on orchard
- and listening to bob marley in art class. every. single. day.
- and acting out plays in english class
- and tea parties in Bible class with mr. padgett
- and pe class with mr. goode
- and dressing up for dodgeball tournaments that i sucked at
- and just so much more
- i don’t think i’ll ever be able to properly express just how thankful i am that my family moved overseas and i was able to finish high school at ICS instead of my old school in the states
- i am so blessed
