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.

What Are You Scared of Today?

FACT: The smartest people that I know are the people who read. FACT: I am nowhere near being 'the smartest person' anyone knows. FACT: I am a work in progress. FACT: I can become so much more than I currently am. FACT: I am on a quest to read as much as I can for a whole year. FACT: This is exponentially harder than it sounds. _________________________________________________________________________________ I was scrolling through Facebook last week and I came across an article that caught my attention. Being on a "quest to read more" I clicked on the article and started to read a column written by a young lady regarding mental health, her experience, and what she longs to say to those 'dear friends' around her who are also struggling. It was a great read and I am glad that I took the time to read it, however there is one question that has stuck in the back of my mind: "What are you scared of today?" As I have continu...

UPDATE

UPDATE: saying yes is hard, sometimes (a lot of times) I choose sleep over clean hair, and these people make my heart oh so happy! As I continue to give fully to my job and to the people in my life, I continue to learn more and more that these humans give me more than I could ever give them.  And that is completely worth it.

Why I Drove to Washington By Myself

Okay first things first....I went to WA to see my friend Liz. Look how cute she is! She got a grown up job and moved to the *cutest* little town in WA and I miss her, so I took a few days for myself and went on a trip to see her. Secondly, I want it to be known that I DID invite a friend to come with me. I have a good friend who I would have loved to have join me on the trip, but when he couldn't come I was sad but didn't bat an eye. Here are the reasons that I invited him: He is excellent company. He has a great taste in music. He is friends with Liz as well. I thought it would be fun if he came. The end that is all. I didn't invite him to make the trip cheaper, to help drive, or to make me feel safer. It would have been fun if he could have come, but either way I was going to go. I drove to Washington by myself because I could. Because I am saying YES. Because I am done waiting for "someday".  Someday when I have more money, or...
