Lovely Lexus...we call her Lewts.

I have become accustomed to having a large group of friends when I am in Utah, but this semester has started out quite differently. Due to different circumstances, almost every member of my "family" has kind-of SCATTERED. Six of them are now missionaries across the globe, ranging from Germany to Washington. Ellen has gone back to Canada for the year, Natalie has moved to Arizona with her finacee, and Julia and Lester are nicely settled in Idaho. So who's left? The most unlikely crew. Lexus Calder and Hillary Hanaike.Lexus and I openly admit to each other that last semester we weren't super close. We've always been friend-of-a-friend kind of friends, never hung out one on one.....never really had anything to do with each other unless Natalie was around. So when we both realized we were the only ones left...well I don't know about her, but I was prepared for living together to be sufficiently awkward. And, honestly, at first it kind of was. But slowly and surely we've gotten used to each other...to the point where now one of us is not often seen without the other! She is terribly sweet. And although we fight, as all roommates do, I can't even tell you how glad I am to have her here with me.
