In just five more days, I will get to talk to Cody on the phone. This is really exciting, and I can't wait for the 20th. It is really tough to have your communication reduced to only letter writing. I am so blessed that Cody takes the time to write me every day, but even that just isn't enough sometimes.
I have been planning my trip out to Colorado for the Birthday Ball in September, and I am incredibly excited for that. It will be the first time that I see Cody since he left for the Academy, and it'll be my first military ball. I have heard that the Birthday Ball at the Academy is very boring because the whole purpose of it is to teach 4th class cadets proper ball etiquette, but I still think that it'll be interesting. I am a little bit nervous about it, though, because I've never been to anything like it, and I don't know what to expect at all. My biggest fear is that I'll do something extremely impolite on accident and embarrass Cody, but I think that I'll be able to tell from watching other people what is and isn't acceptable.
This is also a big time for me because I've been getting all of my financial stuff ready for SLU. It's hard to believe that I'm signing loans for college already. It seems like I'm not old enough for this yet. I know it'll seem so unreal when I go to SLU in the fall, and I can't wait. This will be a great adventure. Saint Louis is an amazing city, and I am very excited to live there.
