I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I intended to beThe truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers.

It's been A LONG time

Well i'm feeling a tad need to write. Who knows why? But I do. It will probably be like the usual ramble of this and that and no sense. Firstly lets just get it started. I graduated college a month ago and still no job. Most likely because i am very apathetic. I don't have enough will power to look. It's kind of a bummer honestly because I am really sick of being a manager at walmart. I mean I love what i do mostly. And the only thing that keeps me going the people. I love my cashiers. Most of them are amazing, some annoying but you know what in the end they make it the reason to suffer the wide world of nagging, rude and impatient customers. I'm also engaged to Nick. I'm so excited, scared, and nervous all at once. Getting married is a HUGE step. Commiting that you are going to spend the rest of you life with the ONE person.. EEK... Scary. I'm really excited for the rest of our lives together. Theres just so many new experiences to come. :) By the way we don't have a date yet. I just can't make up my mind. I was thinking in October to be different. But then I got to thinking. Alot of people I know are still in College and they probably wouldn't make it.. Not that anyone wants to come to my wedding anyway. But still.

Besides all that fun stuff have you ever sat back and watched someone from a distance screw up their life? I mean you dont know how to go about it. I mean what if your wrong and they are not screwing up. But then what if in the end they come to you heartbroken and sad because they got hurt again. Life is hard but no matter what you get through it. I just remembered the real reason why I wanted to blog. Because no matter what LIFE GOES ON. no matter what happens. LIFE GOES ON. I know some things aren't easy to get over but it does go on. Little by little things get easier and easier to bare. And little by little your heart is repaired. However there may be wholes where things have left you can find one thing that can fill it. You just have to know where to look.

It's Totally Update time...

Nothing to exciting has happened in my life. I gradute in June.. As long as i can pass my last 2 classes. LOL Other than I got to thinking just like now. And Alot of stuff has changed in the past couple years. It's so crazy how fast things change. In like 2 weeks Nick and I have been going out for One Year and six months. It's just crazy. I never would have thought I could have a relationship this long. But it's been an amazingly incredible time. Even though its been tough. Because of school and work. But we manage. I love him so very much. This summer we plan on going to Colorado. Or at least somewhere new and exciting. I can't wait. I start my externship on April 7th. I'm really nervous. Because I'm scared I have forgotten how to do everything. So I'm hoping they are going to re-show me. I'm going to be working at Avera's Women's Specialty Clinic. Its going to intresting im sure. I'll have to keep you posted.

Random note. KIDS now adays are nothing like WE were when we were younger. Most of the dress scandoulsly. Sleep around. Just act provocitvly. I mean when I was there age I know there were kids like that but not as many as now. Its just like they dont care anymore. I have never ever heard of so many kids dying either. Its NUTS... From suicide and car accidents. Or from just being stupid. It's ridiculous. Why Can't they just think. Who cares what your parents have to say. Wait you should. WHY because they love you and even though You dont think what they usually have to say is fair. Well you know what It's NOT but it keeps you from getting in trouble. I'm suprised I'm not more troubled. I had a curfew when I was in like 9th grade. And then It was gone. I just had to call them and tell them where I would be and when I would home. And then It got to the point where I would just go and not have to tell them where I was. But I was never really out doing anything bad anyways. When I was at my sport practices I was hanging out at church or with my friends just driving around or watching movies. Maybe I would be different if I dated a ton or something. But I found it pointless. Because everytime you date someone you give them a piece of your heart. And the more you date the more and more pieces you lose. So by the time you get to "the One" you are going to marry you will barely have any pieces to give. So be careful who your giving your pieces to. I really don't think anyone is going to read this anyways But I felt like ranting.

Remember your never ALONE. There is someone always there to love you. AND when your not looking. You will find love. It's when you think there is no one out there, and you just give up and start enjoying your single time you will fine a great person. Anyways. I'm gonna go now because I think I have lost it..

Life.... 2008

Welcome 2008. I swear the years go faster and faster as I get older. When I was in elementary school I recall the time taking forever. But now... its gone in a blink of an eye. Its rather sad but what can I do. I'm just looking back on 2007 and wondering what could have been. What could have been different. What would I want to change what would I want to stay the same. I mean honestly I wouldn't want to change anything. Because everything has made me... well Me. I just have say I never ever would have imagined me being where I am a year from now. or even two years from now. This have changed tremendously. From schools,to friends... and even a boyfriend.

I realized that thoughout high school that I was living a tiny sheltered bubble. Yeah that had it's up and downs. But I just don't know if that was the best thing . There's just so much out there. However I do not want to change anything because I really do Like how my life has turned out. Yes people may frown upon the fact that I'm living  with my Boyfriend. But you know what if it's a mistake than I am willing to take it because I love him with all my heart and if we are meant to be it will be and if not. I at least tried. and if your actually reading this you should know me. I don't just jump on a whim. I spend my time thinking about the pro's and cons before I do anything too drastic. I'm a boring thinker... Thats what I do. But thats me. But I have had a lot of changes in thoughts in the past couple of months... TO much free time thinking.. Thats usually bad for me. Ha anyways I just can't imagine not living with Nick. Because i well I just can't explain it. You get to see their flaws and learn to  deal with them... I am not and will never be Perfect and I am ok with that.

Now it's time to talk.. :)

Rebecca (Pokey)- Yeah in the past couple years.. our friendship has diminished. But we are still Friends. The other day our 2 and half hour conversation was amazing. However sad because I see now that we were each others rocks. We were there to hold each other in the storms. We helped each other guild to the right choices and now I look  at us and wish we would have stuck togther. Because things would have been so different. But you know what I love you no matter what because you are like my sister even though your hundreds of miles away. You will always be my sister from another mister.... lol Thank you so much for everything you have ever done for me. And I will always be there for you. I know you haven't made the best choices this year and neither have I but you know what. EVERYTHING happens for a reason. You know what God has a plan for you and everyone he brings into your life. So be strong. and know that God is always with you and I am always there if you need someone to talk to. :)

Julie- For one I miss you dearly. I'm totally sad that our friendship has also faded away. I mean we use to see each other every single day. And when we weren't in each others presence we would be on the phone with one another. We have had our ups and downs and I just want to thank you for always being there. I mean you don't always like my decisions but thanks for letting me make my own mistakes and still being there to confort me when things go wrong. I don't think that came out the way I had wanted but Hopefully you get the jist. It sounded alot better in my head however I am not going to try to fix it I'll just mess it up. But thanks for being my best friend and my twin... :) I miss just hanging out doing nothing... Anyways Julie I love you and thanks for ALWAYS being there...

Brent- Wow so I doubt you will even read this but I miss you... TONS. I'm glad I get to talk to you occationally It's not the same though. I really don't have alot to say. I need a porch hang or... A good swing at the playground.  I hope college was everything you ever thought it would be. And I hope That God has brought amazing people into your life. Which I wouldn't doubt because you are always surrounded with amazing people.

April- I just really feel the need to tell you that no matter what your going through your never alone. If you ever need anyone to talk to you know how to get ahold of me. Everything happens for reason and everything you do changes you and makes you a new person. Just be careful. Have fun and enjoy your last year of high school because it's not the same after you graduate. Spend as much time as possible with your best friends. Have tons of happy moments and don't let the sad ones get you down. Because your a senior and you have so much of your life to go and look forward to. So Good luck, Be Brave, and know your surrounded by tons of people that love you.

Ashley, Serena and Cassidy- Nothings the same anymore. I miss you all tons. I wish that we could just all hang out whenever we want to but you know life changes and we all had to go our separte ways. I mean we couldn't be who we are today if we didn't go through everything we have been through in our friendship. I love you girls so much and miss you all. We need to go drunk bowling sometime soon... LOL or play Sorry or anything  :) I'm so proud of you all though. Ashley you graduated, Serena your about to graduate. and Dilla, my dilla you are going tos school in MN. away from all of us and are going to your classes and making new friends. :) You all are amazing and have so much more to accomplish in your lives... Good luck

I just need to write. I feel as though I have nothing to write. But I do.. I really do. I feel like I have no one to talk to. Lack of friends maybe. I know I did it to myself.

I recently found out that one of the people from my past. Has passed away. At the ripe age of 18. What could have helped her what could have saved her. You know that is why it is so important to care. I mean I don't know the details on how or why she died. I just know she didn't have it easy. As most teenagers these days. Theres no easy way out. And now enough people to go the extra mile to really listen to understand what is really wrong. Theres nothing I can do now. Just know that I did try. See the thing I'm starting to learn is many people are too judgemental or to sterotypical about people. If they are the slightest bit different they shun them, avoid them, are mean to them. I mean not saying I am perfect and never sterotype because I do , not meaning to but I think it has become part of our culture or something. I just have to say you should treat people the way you want to be treated no matter what. Even if you don't like them. It's sad when I watch people so hurtfully picking on another, when he or she is just like you or me. I guess the reason I am the way I am is because when I was younger I always got made fun of...It happens its a part of growing up. But still it is very uncalled for, and is very hurtful. Wow talk about ranting.

Life is complicated. But I have learned to cope. So much for being young forever. I knew it was bound to come. It will only get worse. School is stressful and overwhelming. I am totally burnt out with everything. I work 39+ hours a week and go to school full time. And do homework full time. I just have to make it through the next three weeks and then i get a short break of no school. But then will be back at it in January. I should be graduating in June... If accounting doesnt kill my goals... lol it's getting easier though.. Phew. but after that what am I going to do. Besides find a job... I wont have school. I have been in school since the age of 5... thats 16 years of my life.. Thats a really long time. I can't believe its been that long. and its nearing the end... (thank goodness) I'm just ready to move on I guess but yet timid about how life will be with out having to do my homework in my free time, or until ungodly hours of the night. It just wont be the same. I feel torn.

I'm totally home sick... Or maybe its friend sick. When I went to school in Brookings my first year I met friends that have stuck through and right now we are all split up and its hard. But im coping. I feel like I need to adjust better but its hard to have friends when you dont have free time anyways. maybe thats what I will do after i graduate... Make friends and keep them...

Christmas.... So yeah I worked Thanksgiving... That pretty much sucked not gonna lie. Christmas I have a bad feeling I'm not going to be able to go home for either. I don't know what I would do without two family holidays... that would just make one royally sucky year. I mean I know its bound to happen as you grow older and are away from home but still.. I miss my family. And they all really want me home for christmas So we will just have to wait and see what happens I guess. I think worse comes to worse Ill take off a couple days after christmas and just go home then.... cause we have christmas off so maybe ill spend my christmas driving home.

Nick is doing pretty good he works 7 days a week. I don't know what it is about this whole thing but us not being able to see each other often sucks. we will cope. or learn to deal. or something like that. Anyways i better go to bed its past my bed time and i work tomorrow.. YAY me NOT... anyways there ya go... Random thoughts of ME...
