I started baking this cake tonight because I was afraid the mix would go bad on me.

Its delicious strawberry goodness turned out slightly ... lopsided somehow, but maybe because it was predicting something..

I'm thinkin' that my cake knew the Spurs would beat the Utah Jazz in lopsided Game 5 of the series (109-84!!!)to win the series 4-1 and move on to the NBA Finals!!!!!

GO SPURS, GO!

Well, it's been a long while since I last posted. Almost a month! I can't say that I've been overly busy, just normally busy.

Since I last wrote, friends have graduated and moved away, they've gone off to start summer internships or summer camp-ships, or just have gotten married. It's funny how in college, May, August and December are times of change for every student. New class loads, new jobs, new lives. And when you graduate, you just kind of assume that will end for a while and you'll become part of the working world where nothing really has a definite end. There are no mid-semester breaks, holiday breaks, or summer breaks - it's all just a plain calendar with every work day reserved as .. a work day. Of course, unless you join back into the school system and that stays part of your life. (I swear, I'm not complaining about my summer break!)

I guess I just assumed that things would stay the same for a while. Wrong!!

I attended a wedding this last weekend with a bunch of people I knew from highschool. Now, I won't pretend that I have ever really been "friends" with these people, but I did hang out with them in the large group setting and at church and what not, but they didn't really know me and still don't (which I'm okay with). But, while at the wedding, when I looked out at the dance floor or around the room, I became jealous a little. Certainly not because my friend got married, I'm only miniscule-ly (?) jealous of that. But more so because they were with their friends and they were having a great time. I couldn't help but think about what the day will look like when one of my really good friends gets married and we all get to meet up and celebrate and have an awesome time together reminiscing and just hanging out again.

Basically, this weekend made me .. yearn for my summer.

I can't wait to hang out with all of my friends, even though we'll never all be together at once. Ginger and Wendy are coming to visit and I'm sure I'll get a chance to see Menges and Kat this summer and probably even go see Patrice!!

All of this makes it sound like I have no friends around here, which is not true. I get to see Karen and Thomas and Cheryl and probably even Lauren on a pretty regular basis.

Anywho, sorry if that was sallow or sad, but it was on my mind this weekend, and that is what a blog is for. :)

I'm already blessed to have the friends that I do.

Off to soccer camp!!

Happy 19th Birthday, Lauren B-Dev!! :o)
