Not One Of My Brightest Ideas...


Once upon a time I had like 150ish homework problems due in my math class. So I went to the library and worked on it and then I had to go to work. After work I started doing homework back at my house about 11:00pm...and worked all through the night...I didn't go to sleep at all, just went to class this morning and then somehow made it through the day until I had my math test this afternoon! I haven't seen my bed since I woke up yesterday and let me just say, I am exhausted. This was definitely not one of my better ideas. I didn't even get all of my homework done before it was due today, and I have been struggling all day long. I bought some "no sleep" pills from the Quickstop on campus (basically a caffeine pill and while I would not usually just go straight to that, I had no other choice today.) I took one about 45 min before my test and I am so grateful because I was awake and alert and there is no way I could have been without it. But I have yet to sleep because now I am feeling a bit awake and it's too late for a nap if I want to have any chance at sleeping tonight. I know the crash is coming. I also know that this is not probably not even making any sense! So having said that I have now been up for 34hours and counting...

Also I just have to tell you this adorable story! I was at work last night at the USU Basketball game and this cute little special needs grandpa comes up and starts talking to me! He was precious! I am pretty sure he thought I was someone else but it doesn't even matter because I just went a long with things. First he asked me how I was and what I had been up too and then he grabbed my hand and asked how my day was. I told him it was pretty good and he asked what "my boyfriend" had done for me. Haha this old man was appalled when I told him I didn't have a boyfriend, gave my hand a kiss, and then left to watch the game. Well, not even 10 min later he appeared at my register and gave me this Hershey's Kiss. Not only was it darling anyways but it made me feel so loved. Every time he walk past the store he waved at me and her was seriously just the cutest little thing! I was so touched at the love he had and his desire to share it! For reasons other than the holiday, I had a long and hard day/week and my night was totally made by this stranger who was genuinely happy, and who genuinely wanted to see me happy as well. It was precious, and something I will remember for quite some time. 



The sweetest little special needs grandpa brought me this at work for Valentines Day when he found out I didn't have a boyfriend!

Life-Blood of My Soul

I love music. It is everything good and happy and right with the world and at the same time can say even the saddest words with such elegance and grace. It can express my thoughts and emotions in way that I know I never could. It is the life-blood of my soul. It makes me happy. And it goes beyond anything I can explain in plain words...which is kinda the point. For me, country music (among a few other things) makes me feel like I am home, no matter what is going on in my life. It is simply fantastic, in fact two of my favorite quotes come from the movie August Rush. They are... "You know what music is? God's little reminder that there's something else besides us in this universe, a harmonic connection between all living beings, every where, even the stars."  AND  "I believe in music the way some people believe in fairy tales..." And if those two don't say it all then I don't know what will. They are simply perfect in my opinion, and are completel...

“People haven’t always been there for me, but music always has.”

Seems like there’s always someone who disapproves, they’ll judge it like they know about me and you. I was lucky like a four leaf clover.  All you need is love, love, Love is all you need.  Don't you draw the Queen of Diamonds, boy, she'll beat you if she's able, you know, the Queen of Hearts is always your best bet. Fathers be good to your daughters, daughters will love like you do. Girls become lovers, who turn into mothers, so mothers be good to your daughters, too. Freedom, well, that's just some people talking. Your prison is walking through this world all alone.   I said, “leave,” but all I really want is you. Back then I swore I was gonna marry him someday, b ut I realized some bigger dreams of mine. On my knees and out of luck,  I look up.   The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls.  Don't test the ones you love, it will only tear us down, if you want to feel alive then learn to love your ground. You call me up again...

I Know I Have Dreams

It's been a while since I have written anything on here. And I know it's been a while. I know that the last few weeks have been crazy, and that that is part of it. But I also know that I have sat down to write here more times than I would care to admit. I know that I have a million thoughts running around in my head. I know that I want to figure out how to let the words out and have them make sense. I know I have all these ideas about what I want to do with my life, what I want to accomplish, and who I want to become, and yet I lack the knowledge of how to get there. I know I have dreams. I know I want to be somebody that people can look up too someday. I know what I love. I know I have to make choices. I know that I ramble. A lot. I know a lot of things. Maybe I will talk about everything. Maybe I will save a post or two for another day. I know that this post is going to be long.  I know that this post may be very varied when it comes to topics. I know that n...
