a new thing

Hey folks. this weekend was great. my friday night started off with my sister calling me! that made my day. her and i talked for at least a half an hour. that really encouraged me. i was glad that we can still talk. for some reason i have a crazy idea in my head that her and i arent that tight anymore which scares me. i love her so much. she means a lot to me. anyways our conversation was good. i was glad to hear where her life has been taking her.
i had to say goodbye to erin because jon was calling me from the parking lot here at BHSU. he had driven from billings to see me. I had been counting down the hours until he got there. i was so excited to see him.
i didnt show him much friday night because it was already dark out so we hung out in my dorm. not exactly the most exciting thing in the world to do with my boyfriend after i hadnt seen him in a few weeks. anyways rachel got back from the concert she had gone to so then the three of us hung out. erin was away for the night because she had gone to a football game with skye and john.
around 10 or 11 jon and i left for the camp sight. we went to timon which is a campsight about 30-40 minutes from the college in the canion. we drove a bit slower because of the deer that could come bouncing out at you around the next corner. after we got to timon we set up the tent with the full moon shining down on us and with a small flashlight that i had brought for just the occasion. we then got in the tent and snuggled together to keep warm. that night we only slept for a few hours. him and i talked about a lot of diff. things. nothing really crazy or extremely important; but we just talked. camp was one thing that we talked about. how we had met and people that we knew from there. people that he had gone to church with. we talked about the first time we had ever talked to eachother, our first impressions of oneanother, and how he thought that when he gave me my number i wouldnt actually call him. i did. how or why i called him i dont know. i'm not even the most gutsy person ever either. he said that he wanted to talk to me because i didnt seem like everyone else (he better worded that).
yeah, we talked about a lot. but also just sat there together in silence which is also a good thing. the night went well but we didnt get much sleep. when you arent near your boyfriend or girlfriend then time spent together is a big thing.
on saturday morning we got back to the dorm and skye called john and john let us in to his dorm so jon could take a shower. we got all cleaned up and went to breakfast/lunch with john, skye, t-love, tod-the-bod, and erin. we all went to perkins. that was actually really good. when we got back we fooled around with the long-boards. i thought that was totally awesome. i stole john's board the other night and just road around campus. jon said he is going to get a new one and give me his old one which i think is totally cool cause then i dont have to pay for one. i'm down with that.
i showed jon around campus on saturday too and we went hiking up in the canion and ran into some cows. we then turned around to go back, then decided to take a pic of them and then turned around and went our way back. there was a small stream near the path so i walked across a log onto the other side and we made a path there finding our way back to the entrance by following the stream it was so beautiful. we walked in the woods a bit which i loved. it was fun.
on another path that my friends had told us about we went up and it was prety steep. it brought us up to some caves in the rocks. the caves and the view was awesome. i loved it almost as much as i love jon. :) him and i stayed up there for a little while until it got too cold to stay up there. if he had had a hoodie we would have watched the sunset. awesome, for sure. alright i will stop explaining everything. i just want to be able to remember in days to come: you should understand that.
we didnt camp in timon the second night because it was full so we went back up the road a bit and camped there. we played a few card games and then layed there in eachothers arms. it was still early but i was tired. we fell asleep off and on but in the midst of that on one of the occasions where we were both awake we talked about college and what i want in it and what i am going to major in. he had a lot to say. jon means so much to me. his opinion matters. something he told me actually made sence. he asked me why i dont just do a double major in nursing and photography. i guess i never thought of that.
we also talked about the big "m". oh wow you say. yes i agree. the conversation was on if or when we want to get married. i would love to marry him and i told him that. he had told me a while ago about how he thought that he shouldnt get married until after he graduated. it would just be too hard to during college. i dont know for sure what i want. it makes sence both ways. i wont go into much detail about that conversation. i just want to be able to read this and remember it.
so today we had to say goodbye. we didnt do anything really exciting or enthusing. we just sat together. talked and sat in silence.
certain things just turn out diff. than you think they would.

yes, most things turn out differently than you think they will.
