Once

Once there was a girl who was tired of school. She was tired of feeling frustrated, especially with classes and especially with people. And she had zero motivation to do anything besides be an adventurer.

She had thoughts in her head that she wanted to say to people, that she probably never would, and it's fine because some of them should definitely stay in her head.. And places that she wanted to see with her very own eyes, that she might not ever see. But her backyard is pretty beautiful and she could appreciate that too!
Regardless of all of that. Regardless of the fact that sometimes she was lonely and sometimes she was filled with pure joy. Regardless of the fact that she was tired of being on the team, or not knowing some of the answers, or stressing over things that don't matter. Regardless of all of that, and so much more, she couldn't help but hope that some day she would make a difference. Someday she will change lives. Someday she will create something beautiful and someday she will bring peace and love and happiness to those around her.
Once there was a girl who, despite the world around her, held on to faith, held on to hope.
And her heart was full, and her mind was constantly running circles around everything.
And no matter how hard she tried, that mind could not slow down enough to allow her to do any else besides lay in her  bed and ponder on everything around her.

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.

I Sort Of Hate Making Decisions About Life.

Sometimes I have to make decisions about my life. And those decisions are hard and they scare me and I don't know what to do. Sometimes I think I have an answer and then a few days later I am doubting and second guessing everything that I think I  have figured out. It's so not cool. And above all I can't handle that fact that I don't know what I am supposed to do! How do I figure this out? How do I know if I am making the right decision? How? How do I know what it is that I am supposed to do? My life is a tad jumbled and messy right now.

The Top TEN!

Okay so it's actually two different top ten lists but that's fine. Here we go. The top TEN…. Things I have learned this semester… 10. Even when school is hard it can be enjoyable. 9. Drives up the canyon can do a lot of good. 8. Sometimes I struggle with people. 7. People are more understanding if you just go talk to them about what is going on. 6. My brain is capable of more than I ever will understand. 5. Some days you just need to buy a cheesecake. And that's okay. 4. Taking chances=worth the risk. 3. Even though trials may be hard, in the end you will learn something. Keep going. 2. People can be major blessings in your life. 1. I will do absolutely anything for the ones that I love. Even if they don’t realize it. Things I did this semester…..(in no particular order) 10. Went snowboarding TWICE (this probably doesn't seem like a big deal but it actually is). 9. Sparklers up the canyon. 8. Tri-wizard tournament (scrapped my shoulder up pretty bad...
