My favorite was the Polish and French food and not because I have a bias.
Oh and we rode Soarin' twice!
The Epcot food festival is AMAZING. Just bring 70 bucks for two people to split as much stuff and Tim and I did for the whole day. That's a lot I know, but it's worth it!
We went there during Fall Break! We tried a lot the same stuff. I was quite surprised at how good the Escargot tasted. Caleb really liked the Irish cheese.
We are going to be at Epcot next week! I can't wait to eat! Last time, we had noodle bowls in Japan, fish and chips in Great Britain (maybe the best I've ever had), crepes in France, and I have a coffee in Morocco that was strong enough to keep me awake for several days. :)
I just have to say I am SO thankful that I can talk to my mom pretty much whenever I want to. I'm so thankful for cell phones and google chat!
Everyones getting pregnant, it's so great! Not to long before my nephew is born!!!
I am 21 years old, and I am still such a child! Do you know what I mean? I am so far from being an adult. There are people my age and younger who, I think, could pass for an adult...but not me! I wonder when I'll finally feel like an adult.
I'm thankful for the fact that I am so easy to be emotionally effected (or would it be affected?) by things...While it is tiresoem to cry 3-5 days out of every week for the past 21 years, it is so wonderful to be able to feel love, and hope, and JOY so strongly that you actually vomit! Well not really vomit...
But, really. I feel bad for less emotive people, because while they don't have to deal with crying in class in front of EVERYONE like ALL THE TIME, they also probably don't know what it feels like to have your heart practically EXPLODE just because the breeze is so wonderfully brisk at times!
...really...sometimes I can't stand the fact that I'm alive because my joy almost kills me! I hope someone can understand how I feel. I'm sure mothers experience it after giving birth. they are put through this painful, agonizing, new experience and the pain and the trauma stretches the threshold of pain, but in doing so, it makes them able to feel joy more fiercly; more truly.
I'm not going to take the time to make this post eloquent, I just hope some of you know what i'm talking about.
I understand how you feel! I've always described that as being passionate.... because that's how I am. And I don't mean that in any weird way just that passionate people usually feel very strongly about everything. I'm like that. I'm never just sad. When I'm sad, I'm really sad. But when I'm happy, I'm really happy.
I am so blessed to know you and your tender heart! And I do understand what having a tender heart means. And while I do not have such a tender heart as you, I have parents who can cry at the drop of a hat... and often do. I love you so much!! Thanks for being you!
By the way- not being an adult is fine. I am 33 and still feel like a child most days- maybe becasue I play with kids all day- but whatever I like being a kid.
I am assuming you know about Heath and Kerry and Adam and Lynn then? I can't wait to see you. We should watch movies and be emotional when you come up. =)
you and me both. we should start a stupid club. I read your bost below and I'm realizing that we should start a stupid crying club becuase we're really good at these things. by the way this is my way of saying I love you and thanks for being stupid with me. I was feeling a little alone...
I've just cried so much today! I cired during chapel because Mr. Caldwell announced it's his last year as president. I cried at lunch because Tim was talking about Jesus and his relationship with his mother and it just made me cry. I cried reading about the loss of a family I don't even know.
I have those days. Haha! Quite a few recently. Just think of the tiny endorphins junping around in your bloodstream (I always think of mini chemical dolphins) Paradoxically crying gives you those and those make you feel better....makes no sense at all.
