Title?

Memories. The good, the bad, and the ugly. Hopefully most will be playing on the good side... or even that of greatness. As the countdown to Ireland nears 0 days or more like single digit days to go... my heart flutters with excitement of adventure and newness. I love meeting people, putting a smile on their face, or just flat out making them laugh. I look at what I have had here in the States, and I know that I have been more than blessed with an amazing time here... but I think it's time for me to get away for a couple of months in order to appreciate what I have here even more than I should already. Sometimes there are days that drag you down, you just have to be tough. Being tough is not always easy because everyone is vunerable at times, and these times can tear us so easily... like a napkin from that fast-food joint you swore you would never return to but find yourself lingering every weekend. But this is not talk about napkins this is talk about people. I love people, but (there's always a but), some moments aren't always as grand as you hope those moments to be... but I must always remember, everything will be okay and that the big man will keep me safe. I want my heart to smile. I want everyone's heart to smile. Therefore, go forward today, be tough, but let your heart soffen and be gental to those around you... you never know exactly what someone is going through, so remember to take time to step into their shoes as they should try yours on as well.

Cheers and be merry for it is almost "happy Christmas" time :)

True lasting friendships are pretty rare in life... except for the friendship and bond of God...but I feel as though lately some of my friends have made lasting impressions on me... I'm sad to be leaving Meredith, but I'm not sad that I went for two years. Those three semesters were great, and I learned a lot about who I am. I'm so happy to have made so many wonderful friends, and I hope I can keep in touch with many of you all... keep those angel wings working! :)

also... I had a wonderful time tonight hanging out with a wonderful friend of mine... if you are reading this you know who you are! We talked about everything, basically... to feel so comfortable talking to someone about your relationship with God and then any other random thought is pretty cool... we even set free some crickets that were doomed to be eaten by lizards during blizzards! I'm stoked to have this friendship which is so beautiful... keep well in Africa! :)

Ireland here I come... t-minus 16 days. WHOA. crazy. yeah. totally agreed.

this should be interesting :)

Hello ;)


When I leave for Ireland, I probably won't be able to keep in contact constantly... thus this blog has been created in order for my friends to keep updated on what I'm doing... I mean that's even if you care haha! This is also a way for me to journal what's been happening for my keepsake... keep smiling friends! :)

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
