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 and ended the night covered in raw egg but I won the goblet of fire so that's all that matters, right?) .
7. Learned to long board (I use the term "learned" loosely but it still happened).
6. JAZZ GAME! (holla!)
5. Played lots of volleyball/racquetball (quality time spent with quality people).
4. Backpacking in Zions.
3. Emily’s baptism.
2. Conference weekend with the sis.
1. JOINED THE A-TEAM.

The great thing about making these lists is that it reminds me that there are so many MORE things that I could include! It reminds me what a great semester it has been, even if at times it felt like it was pretty crummy and that it would never be over! I am one lucky duck!

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...
