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...

“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...
