Dances! Easter! College! Oh my!

To start out:
I answered Steven back for the dance.
He came over to Krissa's house and we watched Zoolander. He didn't know at the time, but we were secretly looking for ways to answer him since he asked me with a movie quote.

So I wrote "Since you're soo ridiculously good-looking, of course I'll go to the dance with you!" And hung it over his rearview mirror.
Simple... But I liked it :]

NEXT... e a s t e r.

Easter was awesome as always. We had tons of food. Tons of candy. And the ever-famous Easter egg hunt at grandmas house.
See.. What's unique about this Easter egg hunt is that Grandma fills it with money.
We like money.

Anyways, the brilliant Kenz ended up getting the whopping prize of $20.

WOOT! :D


And now... College.....

BLAHHHH!!!

My mom and I went to visit my college today.
Oh, what a joyous occasion.
We spent a lot of time on campus.
Went to the bookstore.
Asked people questions.
Got confused.
Asked MORE questions.
Got unconfused.
And most importantly... I picked out an apartment.
Like, it's mine.
I already know exactly which one is mine, too. And I know what it looks like. Because the landlord took me through it. And showed me.

May I just say??
I'm getting real scared.
But also kind of not?
I guess there's a lot of mixed feeling going around in my brain.
But mostly fear. Meeehhh!

PS...

These are my glitter toes. :)

Anyways. My whole frustrated post...
Nothing HUGE was wrong so don't think I'm in this extremely terrible situation..
It's just some dumb fight a friend and I got in and although it sounds dumb to be that stressed over... Well... Okay it WAS dumb to be that stressed over it.

But what can I say, I can be a drama queen sometimes :D
Easter pictures laaaaaterrrrr.

Whooooo!

This is Ally and I eating slurpees because I burnt my throat on a burrito.

And I got asked to commencement!
Life has a funny way of flip flopping. :]

And this is me.

Frustrated, and mad.
And when I get frustrated and/or angry, I usually cry.

I'm just sick of having to deal with this.
I can't make a single wrong move without having all hell break loose...
And I'm sick of it.

Anyways. Crying ultimately makes me tired. So that with the combination of my normal lack of sleep, exercising every day (and trying to do my absolute best with it), dealing with the stress of my situation I'm in now plus the stress of school, commencement, college, money, work, family, and graduation...

I'm 100% exhausted.

Ugh...

I really need to think happy thoughts right now.
Ally, who is an extremely great friend and I will forever be grateful to her for that.

My family, who keep me [in]sane, give me advice, and are still there for me when every one of my other friends aren't.

Photography, Piano, and Snowboarding, because I can say that I am blessed with SOME talents.

The sun.. For.. Obvious reasons.

Seminary, because without it I would probably be selling drugs. Well.. I don't know about that but i definitely wouldn't be where I am today.

My Heavenly Father. This, I'd like to expound on a bit... I was at the park the other day with my client from work, and she got stuck on top of a portion of the park that's made out of cement. It's basically like a huge artificial cave for little kids to play inside of and on top of. Anyways, she got stuck on top of it so I went up to help her down. I told her to take a step, but she basically tried jumping into my arms as I'm precariously balanced on top of this rock structure which is about ten feet off the ground. I ALMOST lost my balance, but I didn't. I honestly don't have any physical explanation for how we didn't fall, but I do know that my Heavenly Father was watching out for me and, more importantly, one of his EXTREMELY special, righteous, and strong children (and I'm definitely not talking about myself).

Jesus Christ. He is my hope in this world, and without Him I'd REALLY be lost. I've been reading the New Testament lately and the things He did are so incredible... Not to mention the atonement he performed at the end of His life. And how incredible it is to think that He did that for ME!


Wow.

Conference. :]

Well, for conference we went to Utah. Friday night we went to a jazz gamee...

We had awesome seatss.. Lol :]

And then we went to conference.

The lady walking through our picture is the only factor that makes me want to post this picture online :] You have to click on it and enlarge it to get the full effect...

Conference was awesome. There were so many good things that I needed to hear! I'm facing many changes.. Changes that are going to be extremely hard for me. But the things that they said in conference really gave my heart peace.
Another cool experience I had at conference (I really wish I had a picture!) was the opportunity I had to get to know a guy from Finland. It was cool to see the cultural differences.. We talked for a good portion of time before conference started. It was hard for me to understand what his name was, but I just call him Fin. Anyways. So I didn't get any way to contact him or anything, but it's going to be a very fun memory!


Speaking of changes...
41 days until the biggest change of my life.

I don't know why...

So I just really wanted to post something tonight. Don't ask why. I just did.

So I'd like to say this..
I have the best life. My family loves me. They are my best fr
iends. I have the best non-family friends.. ever. Seriously, without the kindness shown to me by them in the eighth grade (and throughout my whole life, or most of it for some), I'd.. well. Idk what would've happened. But I don't think high school would have been as enjoyable as it has been without them.

I have a freaking awesome job. Still working at the same DDA.. which cannot be named according to HPPA (?) regulations. Still with the same client. We have a lot of fun :]

I'm going to college in the fall.
I'm going to be successful.
The thought excites me, yet scares me at the same time.
I never knew one word could produce so many emotions...

I'm growing up. I'm finding things out for myself. Learning to be independent. Learning to make better choices. Learning to lean on the gospel and on Christ for every single ounce of support, because honestly He is all the support I need. With Him, I'm invincible.. and with Him I can be good again.

Life is so beautiful!
