i always find myself blogging when I'm supposed to be doing homework. But what the heck, i want to blog. I have found a new love in Joshua Radin..and his musical talents and Andrew Lipkye..and Tracy Chapman..and and and..I could go on and on. Thank heavens for Pandora. I find so much of the music I love through Pandora. Sometimes i don't know where the heck i'm going or what I'm going to do or how the heck i'm even going to do it! But some how some way it always works out. And things that seemed impossible became possible. Ain't it crazy how life works? The time part is especially crazy. One day you're in High school the next you're in your third semester of college. You've loved and lost and your best friend gets married and two other dear friends are engaged...plus a cousin. Love is in the air? A dear missionary is going to be home in T-minus 61 days (i counted today).. :) Where does the time go? I wish i had more time, or that i didn't get tired or have to sleep...such a waste of time. Unless I have a lovely dream then it becomes quite fun. It's winter here..ouch i hate the cold i just want to hibernate every winter. I get sooo sleepy I looked up the weather for Mobile today 80 degrees..I wish i were back there. I miss it so much. Bikinis and beaches and ocean and palm trees...I miss that so much. Last night i dreamed about the beach..Can you tell I miss it? I do..

I miss this.

A tiny glimpse of New Orleans

I loved it and plan to go back

Oh bourbon Street..you smelt of vomit and gross...

I never got to try the Gumbo...but i will when i go back

New Orleans was so so cool!

Street performers everywhere, cool people, jazz music. 

it was lovely.

And if any one is up for a road trip....i am SO down. 

I miss the south like crazy

sometimes..faith is just enough.
sometimes faith is all we have.
but all the time faith lets us believe
in the impossible,
the improbable
and then faith makes it all come true.

I miss this kid.
sir william hill
he's pretty cool i guess.
I mean if i miss him...he must be cool.
way to be an awesome missionary willo :)

I Can't Wait by Runner Runner

I love this song. to death. It gives me the warm fuzzies..hard core :)

nostalgia

you know, i thought that by now id have caught up my blog on this past year

...but as you can tell that hasn't happened yet..

you know what has happened though?

my dearest kindred friend is now a Mrs. 

and roaming the streets of New York with her forever love. 

and i have a puppy named Mika 

who is the sweetest funniest pain in the bum you could get. 

i adore her.

and the 4 best friends have now become the 5 best friends Mrs Tiana is just sensational

and i applied to go do international service in Africa..i hope it will work out.

then there is this sweet gentleman who is back in Utah..which is wonderful

I'm going to school at UVU and loving it (although i still have trouble with homework)

I wish i could just put every memory on this blog in an instant but then again 

that would take away the reminiscing  aspect of writing down a memory..which i love

so eventually pictures will come and i will capture my memories here on this little blog of mine.

I'm super sick. but getting better.. :)

stupid dang flabberghastly awful stomach flu. 

but now that im somewhat functional..

blogging seemed like a good idea.

I loved first semester. 

catching up on my blogging...oh snapple berry and apples. part one :)

Its 9:57 and I have my History homework due In 2 hours and 2 minutes.

But...I had this itching to blog, and its been so long...so I simply couldn't resist.

I miss writing my thoughts, I miss capturing my thoughts by typing them into a new post.

Needles to say I really couldn't resist..and homework will just have to wait. 

yay to being a procrastinator ;)

This past year has been the craziest most trying and eventful year I think of my life. 

It has for sure been the most hard and difficult yet the most sweet and tender and rewarding year. 

Today makes exactly one year since I drove up to BYU-I to start my first year of college. 

I never really blogged about it. I looked like this:

Not my most attractive photo..but it perfectly describes how leaving for my first semester felt.

I'm wearing my dear friend Williams jacket because I missed him already.

He and I have have a pretty wonderful friendship and have been dear friends for quite a while 

and I  wasn't to sure what I would do with out him a minute away.

The car is packed to the brim with the things I swore I needed.

 Including: DI plates, pans, silverware ect.

roller blades

ALL my clothes

 the random knick knacks I couldn't leave behind

 and of course my rabbie. yes, I took my rabbie with me 

My stuffed rabbit I've had since I can remember. 

I remember getting to my apartment and being very unsure.

I didn't feel i was quite ready for school. and I still don't think I was. 

But I am so glad I went when I did. 

I ended up having the most amazing roommates and we were like a family.

We were all so close and I love those girls to death.

Anna, Masey, Bryndi, Chelsea and Cassi

We had fun.. :) yes that is whip cream.

having awesome roommates helped a lot my first semester. I would have had a lot
harder of a time than i did if i didn't have these awesome girls as my roommates.
There was also Mr. David, who I started dating in October.. Who helped me more than anyone else.

First semester i grew..a lot and learned a ton. I met wonderful people. and had a wonderful time..even when it was hard..it was worth it.
