First Day of School

It wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be…it was actually quite good. Seminary was really fun and I like my class and my teacher, MultiMedia will be a breeze, Art History is fun and fascinating, and English has some of my best friends and it’s one of my favorite subjects. It’s going to be a fantastic year. After school we went to Orange Leaf and had a “I survived the first day of school,” party. It was grand.

Summer Nights

Last night was the last night of summer. It was so sad. I would say this has been the best summer so far. I didn’t do anything super exotic or crazy, but it was absolutely perfect. It’s so hard that it’s over. This was the summer before everything changes. Things have already started changing, that much was obvious last night. It’s like there’s a wall forming and no matter what anybody tries to do, it’s going to be there. Ashley, Emi and I talked about it today during church, and this year is going to be different for a million reasons. But that doesn’t mean it can’t be great.

On a lighter note…..star gazing is one of my favorite activities. That, and playing on play grounds. Everything this summer was amazing and school is not going to ruin that!!!!

Oh, and today we discussed what we are going to wear on the first day of school and how we are going to get judged by it.

On another note…sorry I’m late on posting. Time is crazy.

Work in Progress

This week has been psycho. A lot of things happened…including a massive issue which could potentially change all of our friendships. But change is good. Life was meant to be ever changing. So no matter where we go on this road it’s all going to be ok. Things happen for a reason.

Emily moved in just up the street from Dallin and she used to live in his ward in Cali. She’s really nice, and she made me realize how lucky I am to live where I do. She couldn’t ever go to prom because it was so dirty. She didn’t have any friends at school except for the few people in her ward. I am so lucky to have so many great friends. I am so lucky I can go to prom without worrying about what filthy things are going to happen there. I am so lucky to have most of my friends be members of the church, and all of my friends have similar standards to my own.

On a more fun note….some awesome things happened this week 🙂 Not that meeting Emily wasn’t awesome, cuz it was, but some awesome things happened with a certain someone 🙂 And it’s great…..if you know what I’m talking about lucky you 🙂 Anywho I’m still freaking out about it a little…it’s really different than anybody else. But I’m sure I’ll figure it out.

Audrey Hepburn has the most brilliant quote and I know that Ash has quoted it…but seeing as her favorite color is purple and mine is pink…I have more of a right to it 🙂

“I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles.”

Basically sums up my life…and life is good, even though its a work in progress.

Crazy crazy life

So I have been crazy busy for the past week. Here’s a rundown of what’s going on:
-Went to Girl’s Camp and absolutely loved it, but was absolutely exhausted by it.
-Discovered while at girl’s camp that it’s nearly impossible to sleep when you know there’s a mouse in the lodge. Also discovered that while before mentioned mouse is in lodge, you don’t want to get out of your sleeping bag…no matter how hot it is.
-Fell in love with all the younger girls in my ward and discovered they were dying to read my not yet written book about things every girl should know.
-Fell out of love with someone who I thought was perfect, and after not speaking for nearly two weeks, I realized that I was in love with the idea of it all.
-Discovered that people miss you when you’re gone.
-Discovered that the church is the absolute most important thing in my life, and if I want anybody to remember anything about me, it’s that I have a testimony.
-Realized that getting home from girl’s camp at 12:00 AM and then going to sophomore registration at 8:00 AM isn’t a good combination.
-Discoverd that sophomores don’t want to spin the cool wheel even if it means getting candy.
-Realized that I missed my friends WAY too much and I was only gone for four days.
-Wouldn’t it be hysterical if we went bowling???
-Borrowed socks are lucky when you bowl.
-Found out that dressing as a classy PTA president when going to a classy party might be a mistake.
-Discovered that Bountiful guys are cute and fun 🙂
-Approval of one of my best friends crushes= YES
-Freaked out about how I’m feeling….he’s my best friend for pete’s sake!
-Ballet at 8:00 AM stinks. Really.
-Photoshoot was an epic success. I love my friends more than anything. It’s our last summer together before the four of us go seperate ways. And I’m terrified. Absolutely terrified.
-Working on Show Tune Saturday Night is super fun 🙂
-Melissa Tingey is an angel to work with 🙂
-True darting is fantastic……:)
-Even more fantastic…the possibility that there might be more where that came from 🙂
-Guys may act stupid, but sometimes they’re there for you and say the sweetest, most important things to you and you know you’re in good hands because they’re your best friend.
-This time, it’s different…more than ever before I don’t want to mess this up.
-Easy by Rascall Flatts and Natasha Bedingfield….yeah I’ve listened to it a lot.
-Family is super fun…especially when they are making fun of you for reading the scriptures when it’s four people away from your turn!
-Sundays are the best days 🙂
-School starting…no bueno.
-I love my friends SO SO SO much.
That’s what I learned this week, and who knows if any of it will come in handy. I just know that every time I learn something or feel something or know something, it’s good. Learning is good…

Ginger jokes and friends

So last night my girls (Emi, Ash, and Morg) and I had some heart to heart chat time. Which was glorious. They also used this opportunity to tell me some ginger jokes that should be included on this blog. Here are a few….

-I got a new freckle today.
-I got sunburned today after I turned on the lights.
-I went looking for my soul today…I didn’t find it.
-I got made fun of today.
-People made South Park references at me today.
-People tried to warm themselves by my hair today.
-I burned someone today.

Aren’t my friends super funny 🙂

On a seperate note, we had some actual deep conversations on how next year is going to be so weird and different. We are already seeing the changes and how we could potentially lose friends. It’s scary. But the good thing is that we’re together and that we can do it…probably! Change isn’t ever easy but hopefully senior year is going to be the best one yet!!

Welcome to this blog….

Yeah….I started another blog. Chances that I’ll post often are one in a million…but that’s pretty good odds considering how much a billion is, right? I have a lot to say, but not many people are interested in listening, that’s just how the world works. So if I can have this little blog and pretend that people are reading it and being enlightened, that’s great. Maybe it’ll make me feel like I’m making a difference, yay for change! This is probably going to be filled with whatever is in my head when I happen to get on….I’m sure that will be enjoyable… 🙂 It’ll probably be filled with realizations and funny Youtube videos that I discovered and things about school and being a senior (ICK) and all of that good stuff. SO….enjoy!
