"every one was beaming, every one, every where...."

hahahahahahahaa.......ha!

Guess who definitely did not go home today?
Mhmm.
Best thing ever.

So we get to the train station.
A half hour early.
I get my ticket.
I go to the luggage check in place.
My bag is big, my bag is heavy.
Not going to carry it on with me and try to find somewhere to store it.
I get up to the counter and see a sign with something like this:
"We're unloading the train, be back in 10 minutes".
Okay....
We wait....
And wait some more...there was like, 10 other people waiting with me.
Finally this lady comes out and is like,"You need to run out to the train NOW. It's leaving in 5 minutes."
We explained to her that we'd been waiting for quite some time to check our bags in and that they're too heavy to take on the train.
Mine might have been do-able, but this other girls bag was overly massive.
She's like, "No, you need to run out to the train."
So we run.....
And this big security guard guy closes the sliding door in front of us and shakes his head.
Hmm.
It wasn't even time for the train to leave.
But they said for "homeland security" purposes, they had to shut the gate 5 minutes before the departure time.
The girl with the big bag was like, "I understand that, but we've been waiting here for 30 minutes just to check our bags in. You have to let us on the train."
All the lady said was, "No you weren't."
......haha are you kidding me?
That was probably the most humerus part.
Anyways, the next train to Seattle was at 6 something, and my sister didn't want to drive home and come back again, and I didn't want to wait that long, so we rescheduled it for tomorrow.
The only part that I dislike about all this is that I had to pay $7 to get my train for today, and then another $8 to get the one for tomorrow.
Oh well.

I'm so thankful for this extra day though.
All we did was go to church, but it was amazing.
Like, so many things......
And then we went out to Red Robin and it was such a happy, joyous time.
All my new friends were there.

Ahh, so many things.
Can't even describe.
Like, big, mental things.
Big life, directional things.
All day God was showing me things.

The weird thing is, I knew I wasn't coming home today.
I mean, I hadn't officially formed the thought in my head, but yeah....
That happens to me sometimes.
Sometimes I just have a feeling about something and they end up being right.
But whenever I make assumptions, I'm always wrong.


FRENCH

Est-ce que tu as une pomme pour moi, mon amie? Merci beaucoup, ma chirie.

That's the sentance I constructed today.
Friends, I will learn french.
Even if its just on my own, like this.

Do you have an apple for me, my friend? Thanks so much, love.

SONG FOR TODAY

(this was the only video I could find of it....)




Wow. I might actually try and sleep tonight.
I'm leaving the house at like, 6:45am to go to starbucks.
The train leaves at 8:30.

Night, friends.
