One Silly Little Month

In one silly  little month I will take my very last final and be finished with my sophomore year of college...YIKES!
How can it be just one month away? Part of me cant wait until it is one month from today. I can be carefree, enjoying the sunshine and summertime! I can't wait for warm weather and no school and adventures all the time. Baseball games and cookouts and swimming and basketball in the driveway with the little brothers. It's going to be grand!

Another part of me though wishes time would stand still.
And not move at all...let's just stay right here for forever and a day.

I have been blessed with some pretty incredible people in my life, it's overwhelming sometimes. I look around me sometimes and wonder how I got lucky enough to have such wonderful people in my life!  In one silly little month comes a lot of very hard goodbyes.
One silly little month brings hard final exams, projects, presentations, and packing packing and more packing.
It brings moving away from the people and the town that I have grown to love more fully this year. It means saying goodbye...and we all know how I feel about saying goodbye.

In one silly little month so much can happen. 
Camping trips, concerts, family visits, General Conference, tests galore, graduations, road trips, many late nights at the LIB, endless laughter, and memories made that I wouldn't trade for anything in the world.

One silly little month separates me from the way things are now and the way things will be when everything changes.

One silly little month.

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...

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...

To Those Who Serve, Thank You!

First I just want to take the time to thank those men and women who serve (or have served) our great country. Anyone in any branch of the Military, know how grateful I am for you! The sacrifice of you and your loved ones is beyond anything I have ever been asked to do, and I will forever be grateful for your service! On this day, and everyday, know that you are appreciated, know that you are loved, and know that you are in my prayers. Thank you! Second. Being a grown up is SO over rated! I have so many things I want to do this summer and instead I feel like I am working my life away. NOT.COOL. Okay so it is good to have the money that I need to pay for things like rent and food and gas and school. But right now it is just a bummer. Also I am missing Logan so much! I miss people, the mountain air, the outdoorsy things, and just the atmosphere that only seems to be found in Logan. There are some people I miss so bad it hurts. That's the worst part. But I am here just working and wor...
