Rambling reflections

Hello world! I have been in the BYU bubble for several months. I like to think of college, though, as a cocoon rather than a bubble. A cocoon in a girl-meets-real-world, learns-to-cook and live-with-people-not-from-orem kind of way. But I'm emerging for a week, so I'd like to share some things I've learned. First of all, onions and garlic are not the same thing. And onions do go bad. So do potatoes. Second of all, your body does acclimate to all-nighters and late-night-bingeing. This is not a good thing. Third, research papers are painful, but not fatal, and are a class in and of themselves. Fourth, breakdowns are normal, wrenching, and temporary. Fifth, I could make this list extend to Kolob. Sixth, I love college. Seventh, I am incredibly excited to go home!
