wishing on wishes.

Ya, life throws you curves.

But you learn to swerve...

Me, I swung and I missed and the next thing you know...

I'm reminiscing..

dreaming on dreams

wishing on wishes..

Notebook moment wanted.

It's Saturday.

I'm spending my evening watching TV and lounging in front of the computer.

After a crazy couple of weeks, it's actually much needed.

It's Graduation weekend here in town.

As I see them preparing for the big day I can't help but think that I graduated high school 5 years ago.

5 years ago I was 17 and fearless.

5 years ago today I lived for moments of laughter with friends.

5 years ago I was giddy in love with a high school boy.

5 years ago I had my whole life to dream and to plan.

High school was tough.

I had ups and downs, just like the rest of you.

I had best friends, that sadly I haven't seen in years.

I had wonderful teachers watching out for me, and I was carefree.

Then I went to college and met my best friends.

I learned and grew, as a dental hygienist and as a person.

I stayed true to who I was and fell in love.

Today I am a dental hygienist.

I love the person I am, although I learn more about the person I want to be each day.

I realized people I never expected to make me happy, make me the happiest.

I yearn to remain best friends with my college friends, and to be the best sister around.

I strive to surround myself with what makes me happy, and to never settle for anything less than everything.

So I guess whether you are 17, 20, or 23--we will always be growing into that person we want to become.

That person we say we are going to be at 30 will probably be facing the same issues we did in high school.

We will long for a life filled with moments that bring happiness..

and we will always live for love.

Always.

With that..here are few things that have been on my mind lately...

Your Body is a Wonderland-Sexiest lyrics ever. John Mayer-you get me everytime. You win.

Very few things beat driving around on dirt roads with friends. Especially if everyone is singing loudly to wonderful music.

Summer, thank you for FINALLY showing up. I was waiting.

Brade, I am still SOOOO excited for you.

I'm slowly falling in love with this cowboy town. Yes, even the smell.

I saw Chuck Wicks in a bar while downtown with my cousin. He said I had a kick-ass camera.

He was pretty kick-ass himself.

I cannot wait for my mom and brother to come here this week. Pretty much counting down.

Everyone should have a friend who sings to them loudly through the phone when they are having a bad day.

Problems solved.

I want a Notebook moment.

Noah-I'll be waiting in the upstairs on my crappy apartment.

You can show up in your canoe anytime.

I like the mess you make.

Aren't we all after someone who makes us smile?

Even if we don't know why.....

All I really ever wanted...

I know this blog should be full of Mexico pictures....

but at THIS moment, I am way too excited to see this

good looking thing tonight!!

Mr. Chuck Wicks is coming to my town tonight!

My cousin is also coming to see his show, and then will be staying with me for a

day or two!

I love getting company!

Ps.

This song below is pretty much my summer anthem.

Love it.

Back.

Hi.

I'm back from another wonderful trip to Mexico.

I love the heat.

I adore the ocean..

....and I realize I'm still figuring out who I want to be in life, and what really makes me happy .

And that's ok.

Really..?

Remember that day I...

-drove two hours to Billings

-waited two hours and spent $ 500 to get a roof rack placed on my vehicle

-went to Scheel's to get my two brand new Kayak's placed on top of my brand new kayak carrier

-hit the interstate back towards Mile City

-saw something fly off the back off the top of my vehicle, only to find out that brand new roof rack and kayak carrier had just decided to split in half

-had some nice guy come take those pretty little kayaks back into Billings because I had no way of getting them back home.

-left Billings $1000 dollars poorer with a dent and some scratches on the roof on my vehicle from that brand new roof rack.

that was yesterday.

FML.
