Look on the Bright Side Sunshine!!!


Trying something new sometimes can be really scary... Don't ya think? Asking someone to Sadies, donating blood, or getting your first job... The list goes on and on! I went to Lagoon this summer with my friend Jacob and his sister wanted to go on the skycoaster! (It is a frefalling to your death ride as tall as cannibal which is 208ft. If you need to see a video.. Ask me or YouTube.)  I volunteered to go with her!  we were about to go but she lost the $20!!! I still had mine and being the daredevil thatI am... I went on that deathly ride alone. (They could make a frightmare dummy out of my carcus if I had died.) So I walked up to 3 grown men getting off the ride and here's my cute little 15 year old self, scared out of her wits but is trying to be braver than ever. As they propelled me up so I could see the people inside of their airplanes, I cannot describe all the emotions going through my head! As they said to let go I felt like death was near. But then... I flew! So freaking high. And it was the best feeling ever!
Another story was asking my long time crush out to Sadies. To me.. He's like the coolest guy in school because he's Mormon, friendly, and super cute. I was debating back and forth for a long time whether or not to ask him because we don't interact with each other as much as we could.. Then my cute friend grace helped me look on the brighter side and wow she just overfilled my cup of bitterness and doubt with happiness, hope, and joy. I asked him, but still no reply yet.. So I will hopefully update that sometime soon.

The moral of this blog today was: always look on the bright side when trying something new. Joy will come in your life that will just overpower you!!! Success is only found through trying!!! :)

I'm almost there! (Or so I think)

Wow I'm such good blogger! I love reading what I have said in the past. Anyways lets get down to business! Graduation for me is coming up in a short 18 days! I can believe it because it feels like the time is so slow but its actually almost here. Can't wait for what life brings me after I graduate HS.  While being in High School I've learned this lesson: It is okay to not be okay all the time. I've cried way too much in High School and it's been an emotionally journey for me. Hormones are real. And so are girls attitudes.  I guess why I say this is because these past few months have been harder than when I lost my boyfriend, but they have been a lot easier to heal from. My favorite guard director left our team unexpectedly because they were dealing with a ton of crap in their life. I understood why they had to leave, but I was angry that they left without saying goodbye. I miss them so much. But I was able to move on from that trial only because I had faith th...

That's the last time you are telling me something I'm not.

Thanks to Facebook memories today I was able to reflect on my first band camp 6 years ago. Wow what a ride colorguard was. I guess why I start off by talking about my marching band experience is because it is really the only thing I kept up with throughout my high school career. I learned a lot, I got a lot of bruises, swollen bumps, and even a black eye! Crazy to think that people think it's easier to do marching band than football sometimes.  Anyways, as much as I loved competing and being a part of something breathtakingly beautiful... I was bullied in colorguard. Not by the students, but by my first colorguard director. I don't really remember what I did to deserve the disrespect of said director. Maybe I was being rude, sassy, selfish? I was a pretty annoying teenager. Going into my second year with the marching band, there were leadership opportunities for those people who marched at least one season the previous year. My best friend at the time was going to try out for...
