See here.

Well thats a year of my life I will never forget. Even tho im still 19, and its technically still this year, I think I can safely say in advance that when I turn 20, I wont forget 19. Btw, 20 sounds really old. I am dumbstruck just imagining all the sweet things I will be able to do once I am 20. Ok not really. but 20 does sound old.

Well, I am in La Fontaine, Indiana. Thats new. I officially live in the boondocks.
I am a Hoosier. Even tho, at heart I always have been.
I am a Sophomore in college. Finished my first year at FC less than a week ago. Lot of things to say. Basically Tremendous. Best year of my life.
I am up way too late. So lets blog about it. Yay. That will waste more time.
I miss my friends from Minnesota.
I miss my friends from Florida College.
This is an open invite to any of my friends. Fort Wiley will be open all summer. Schedule appts. now to come see me.
I shot at some geese today in my yard. But I think its illegal.
I rode the grizzly sunday night, and climbed a tree.
I did a massive cannonball into our lake monday morning. Best way to get up ever. Beats coffee any day.
I am going to start working for my parents tomorrow. First order of business is fully detail all of the cars.
My summer is starting and I hope it doesn't go by too fast.
I feel like it will. I hope I am disciplined. Lazyness is not acceptable. This summer is the summer of lists.
This is the most random post I have ever made in my life.
If you read it, you deserve a nickel and a pat on the back, maybe even a high five. If you post and tell me how obnoxious I am...then you get a pound. oh yeah.

This one is a freebie--5 favorite bands right now: Weezer, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Guster, Coldplay, Creed...haha jk. tossup btw Maroon 5 & David Gray.

Top 5 memories of FC--(fyi, list is imcomplete)
-Pirate Princess Party @ Disney
-Phi Sig & Psi Beta Gamma Lock In
-Midnight Madness
-Spring Banquet
-2nd Semester, bcuz lets be honest, I didn't have friends 1st semester....friends: thanks for making life tremendous and legendary.
-Honorary mention: Suite nights/frisbee

Next fall is exciting, but I think I can wait. Im gonna have some fun this summer at home. I think my parents are excited to see me. They have already totally analyzed and digested my yearbook completely. If you want any updates or juicy first year details from me...you can go to them as a source. They probably know more than I do.

Honestly, I cant complain about anything in life right now. My motto this summer, however cheezy it is: Don't be bored, Serve the Lord.

I could right so much more. One Love.

Action.

It is Tuesday, December 11, approx. 11:42:57 p.m. central time in Eden Prairie, MN. I am listening to Christmas music in my room of 15 years for one of the last times tonight. I am looking around at bare walls, no furniture, and the awesome air mattress I am about to sleep on. This day came a lot faster than I imagined.

Florida College Fall Semester 2007 just ended and I just got back to Minneapolis tonight. The school year so far has been awesome. I love it down in Florida. I had so much fun, it almost went by too fast. Tomorrow I will catch up on must needed sleep, get ready to move, spend time with some friends, and go to church at night. Thursday, mi madre y padre y I will head out most likely at 4:00 am sharp (just like always), to journey to our new home in Indiana.

The past 6 months of my life have been the best and craziest ever. I graduated high school, Luke and Megan got married, Nate came home from Iraq, I went to Israel, I went to FC this fall, My parents sold their home in Eden Prairie, MN, and now we are moving to LaFountaine, Indiana, just to name a few.

I am excited and anxious about celebrating the holidays in a new home. We have a lot of good memories here. But the part I like the most about the holidays is being with family. And we will still be able to do that, as well as celebrate with extended family in Indiana. Some family traditions will discontinue, some will change, and some will stay the same.

All in all, change is good, we are blessed, and I thank my God our creator for everything. I am going to have a splendid winter break and I wish a holly jolly Christmas for everyone out there. Tis the season.

In the next few days I will be getting organized and packing up my belongings as I leave the Land of 10,000 Lakes, AKA Minnesoooota, for the hot and humid Florida. It is starting to dawn on me that I will be a college student soon, and how much more awesome I am than everyone still in high school. Jk. I have already had to say goodbye to a lot of friends that I will miss over the next few months. Especially, Cody he is like my main man. I always thot we were the same age and together for everything but its weird to say goodbye to him while he still has a year left of high school.

I still have a lot to do before I leave for FL on Monday with my big bro Nate. I know we are going to have a lot of fun on the way down. Everyone beware. In about a week, the whole Wiley Clan will be in the Sunshine State. So ya'll know its gonna be craazy. I am excited.

So I am gonna be in college. By the way, FC has a sweet Cross Country team. Just to let you know. And everyone should go to all their meets and superfan it. like crazy. I better see you cheering... Side Note: If anyone has a couch, tv or mini fridge that they dont want anymore and wants to be really nice to me. Let me know, as of now my dorm room is lacking in that department. So thats whatsup yall. I am looking forward to seeing a lot of old friends and meeting new ones.

Goodbye Minnesoooota. *tear*

5. My 'rents are moving to Indiana sometime this fall. Its crazy up in herre'.

So thats whatsup. I wanted to thank everyone for Nates safe return to the USA and all of your prayers.
