"Being crazy isn't enough" - Dr. Seuss

So, I realized I haven't blogged in a while. My life has been crazy. I finished off Summer Term. I am now officially a Junior in college. CRAZY, huh? But I am going to keep pushing through and I guess we'll see how young I am when I graduate. Sounds like a fun plan haha. Life is sweet though.


This week I get to go HOME for a whole week! Yes, that is my summer break, only a week. But I will take what I can get. I can't wait to just spend time with family, not worry about school work and just enjoy the time I have been given with them. I love my family so much. They are my everything. I honestly would put them above others in that I would rather be on the phone with my mom or dad than my best friend. I think that is because the people in my family really are my best friends. They are forced to be in a way, since we are stuck together for eternity. Needless to say, I am stoked for this upcoming week. My life is GREAT! :) The church is true.

"You don't choose your family.  They are God's gift to you, as you are to them." -Desmond Tutu

If you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot in it and hang on!

You know when you just feel like giving up? I am so thankful I have great people all around me in order to keep me hanging on. I have such great friends that are always watching out for me. Whenever I am not feeling my best or happiest, I am surrounded by great people hugging me, texting me, saying just what I need to hear and just being amazing. I also have a great family. I honestly don’t know what I would do without them. My family is close. I mean REALLY close. When we are going through something hard we just need to be with each other. So it has been nice being able to be with my family. They are my everything. My life really is great. Though I am having some days that I feel really stink and I can’t go on (something I am REALLY not used to but I know that some people deal with this their whole lives), I also have times where I am happy. My friends can make me laugh, my family makes me feel loved. Life IS good. I just need to count my blessings and be thankful for the trials that are thrown my way. Life is good. The Gospel is true. People are always there if we need it, and one person is always there for us. Thank goodness for my crazy, beautiful life!
