then & now...

THEN:

two years ago, this very day, i was here. here being the louvre and the eiffel tower. it was amazing and i am quite shocked that it has already been 2 years! where has the time gone?

.

i love art. a lot. going to the louvre was a dream {even though i would never-NEVER-advise anyone to go on the first sunday of the month} here was all the art i'd studied and learnt about. it was love.

{waiting in line to get inside}

{outside by the glass pyramid with a face that says, i can't believe i'm here!}

{the raft of the medusa--magnificent--and huge!}

{eiffel tower!}

{a video for your viewing pleasure :)}

.

.

NOW:

i am in utah. wait...what? i know right? it's still a little strange to me but it's been...9 months. whoa. and it seems as though i am not leaving in the foreseeable future. given the fact that i am seriously considering the grad program at BYU, which would mean i'll be here for at least 3 more years.

but it has been pretty good so far, so i can't complain.

{yes that is a giant Y on the hill--that means you're in provo}

{quite literally next door to campus. this is what i see when i'm on my porch}
