simplenoteasyy: I don’t know how the other girlfriends do it, but i don’t think i’m quite as strong as them yet. sometimes i find myself being ungrateful for what and who i have in my life. :( I’m constantly reminding others not to take things for granted, i guess i should try looking in the mirror and…

Australia Blog no.1 (better late than never)
Well well well, it would appear that the ocean and sunshine have been more of a deference to my blogging than a facilitator. I thought that I would blog everything about Australia on an almost daily basis but, well, you see that I was clearly wrong. I really don’t even know where to start. I left home August 30th at about noon. My mom, Emma, me, and my bags all squeezed into my moms pick-up and...

You dont care a bit
I often sit by myself and listen to my itunes on DJ mode. This night being one such moment, Imogen Heap, Hide and Seek came on. Now, I know that this song is probably their most commercialized song and one that most people have heard before, regardless of their musical knowledge or lack thereof. Regardless, it cannot be denied that it is a beautiful song. Have you ever really listened to it...

Why am I so quick to forgive everyone but myself?
It is as if I won’t allow myself to fail, as if I won’t accept my very human nature of imperfection. Rigid, that is the word that comes to mind. I have worked so incredibly hard to maintain this “reputation”, if you will, of a person who has it all together, a person who knows what she is doing, so much that when I decide to let it be and live by the moment for just that, a moment, I sit second...

who am I
Do you ever wonder if the person you are fooling is really yourself? We all put on a face, a socially accepted, societal pleasing face. We can say that we are real, that we know who we are, that we are true to ourselves, but are we really? Are you? I have always prided myself on my independence, on my belief and trust in the idea of love, and my willingness to drop my structured, rigid, and...

slow down
I have realized that I spend so much more time looking forward to and anticipating things that are to come than I do appreciating where I am today. I am going to work on that, I love my life, I need to breathe it all in, every last second.

California
My best friend and I are moving to California when I complete my undergrad work at Bethel. I will be attending Grad school somewhere there for psychology. Its funny to look at the chapters of your life, the paths taken and not taken, and where you end up. I think it is so funny that my plan all along was to go to grad school in California, but that plan was abandoned when I abandoned undergrad...

you are going to be okay, i promise
Last night I read a friends tumblr and saw the pain that this person was experiencing from a heartbreak from a first love. I felt compelled to respond to it from my experiences. I dont think this person knows that I even have a blog, but, should they come across this, I hope it is of some help…or that it helps you. P.s. if you ever need to talk to anyone, i’m here. im a good listener...

This is me
Well hello bloggers. I’m not sure how many people will actually end up reading my blogs, but, I figured, why not? I will probably have a lot of very random posts, get used to it. I think ALOT about very abstract ideas and therefore my blog will not demonstrate linear thinking. i’m all over the place. Anywho, here we go. I’ll try and make this regular, but, the key word there is...
