                <description><![CDATA[ I actually really like this one, except for the first few questions that all begin "Honestly,....". Hope Tumn doesn't mind. <br /><br />Oh and thanks for the shout-out bout my phone! pfft...lol...I know it's true though...but I am getting better! :-/<br /><br /><br /><br />Honestly, what's on your mind?<br /> The Day of Service was today and I missed it....I feel bad about that...I'm also thinking bout starting work on Monday, and about getting back into my fitness routine. Then I'm also thinking about Bobby. yup...pretty much sums it up.<br /><br />Honestly, did you watch Shot of Love with Tila Tequila?<br />Nope. Proud to say I don't even know what it's about.<br /><br />Honestly, what makes you happy?<br />Going to the beach and being in the sun. Driving around in a car jamming to music. Writing, Reading, and Singing. Definantly DANCING. And being with people that I love.<br /><br />Honestly, what are you sick of?<br />The unkown...it's can scare the crap out of me. And roller coaster rides...lol.<br /><br />Honestly, have you ever made anyone cry?<br />Yes...my Mother, my Bestie, and probably some other's too.... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /><br /><br />Honestly, are people annoying?<br />Is the pope Catholic?<br />But I mean, of course, it depends on the people.<br /><br />If you could go back 3 months and change something would you?<br />Probably not...ever decision I've made I have learned from and wouldn't want to loose that knowledge so...<br /><br />Is there anyone who doesn't like you?<br />Plenty.<br /><br />Do you miss anyone?<br />All the time....<br />Tumn, Christine and Jonathon, Tracey, Faye, Chrystal....the list can continue.<br /><br />Do you believe in love at first sight?<br />I actually do.<br /><br />Do you know what you want in life?<br />True love and joy. A life that I feel is fullfilling. I want to be with the man that I love, and who loves me. I want to be surrounded by family and friends. And I want to be able to wake up every morning thanking God for the amazing life I've been given.<br /><br />Can you honestly say that things are running smoothly for you?<br />Well, actually yea. For the most part anyway. A small hic-up here and there, but still things are moving along. I've got a good job, found an apartment with Bobby yesterday, school's going to be starting in a couple of weeks...life is good.<br /><br />Where was your default picture taken?<br />My Apartment in Layton.<br /><br />Have you ever dated a soccer player?<br />No.<br /><br />Are you listening to music right now?<br />No...which is surprising. Just the breeze through the trees.<br /><br />Do you think anyone is thinking of you?<br />Yes I Do.<br /><br />What are some things that you have to have every where you go?<br />My Cell. Like Tumn so sweetly put, I am one of those people. Lol. I also have my ipod, and lip-gloss...<br /><br />If the year consisted of only one season, which would you choose?<br />Spring. Beautiful, sunny, breezy, spring.<br /><br />Who was the last baby you held?<br />Sister Rhoads ADORABLE little boy! He's only a few months old and sooo cute!<br /><br />What were you doing at 8 am this morning?<br />Laying in bed thinking about my day, wondering what I'm going to do...<br /><br />Do you like pancakes?<br />Love em.<br /><br />Who do you trust with everything?<br />Christ<br /><br />Do you crack your knuckles?<br />Yes...a lot actually. <br /><br />Where will you be in an hour?<br />Hmm....backyard in the sun maybe?<br /><br />Do you think you will make a good wife?<br />I do. I know how I am in just relationships, so I think being married will be a beefed up version of that. When I'm in love, well nothing comes before that person to me so, yea.<br /><br />Do you feel like an idiot every time you step into Hot Topic?<br />Just uncomfortable.<br /><br />Does your favorite mall have more than one floor?<br />Don't have a favorite mall<br /><br />Do you have a crazy aunt?<br />No. All of my Aunts are relatively sane.<br /><br />What were you doing at 12AM?<br />Watching The Fast and The Furious.<br /><br />Do you have any tattoos or piercings?<br />Ear piercing.<br /><br />How is your hair?<br />Curly and messy. The way it looked after being thrown into a pool last night. <br /><br />Have you ever met someone who is incredible?<br />I've met quite a few incredible people.<br /><br />Have you ever kissed someone whose name started with a K?<br />No<br /><br />Who was the last person you talked to on the phone?<br />Um....Christine I think.<br /><br />Are you currently looking for a significant other?<br />Not looking anymore, just waiting and working to figure everything out...<br /><br />Is there someone on your mind that shouldn't be?<br />No.<br /><br />Where did you last sleep other than your house?<br />Tumn's Dorm.<br /><br />Do you think things will change in the next few months?<br />I know they will.

With my Trevor, Erin, and David.<br /><br /><br />Is it hard for you to ask for help?<br />Yea, it can definantly be...especially if I know the person gets bugged when I do or whatever...<br /><br /><br />Are you in a good mood?<br />I'm in a fairly good mood. Just relaxed and content.<br /><br /><br />Are you shy?<br />Not at all. I sometimes choose to be more researved though and watch versus participate.<br /><br /><br />Does anyone have feelings for you?<br />Yes. Definantly one man does...<br /><br /><br />Who do you argue with the most?<br />Logan hands down. lol. But it's typically friendly arguements. <br /><br /><br />Who was the last person you had a deep conversation with?<br />Bobby.<br /><br /><br />How many cigarettes have you smoked today?<br />None.

One older, one younger.<br /><br /><br />Called anyone a bitch today?<br />No<br /><br /><br />Do certain songs remind you of certain people?<br />Oh heck yes. <br /><br /><br />Do you straighten your hair often?<br />With a straightener...maybe a couple times a year. I blow it dry all the time though which makes it straight.<br /><br /><br />What sport do you watch the most?<br />Football. Basketball's a close second. Wrestling's cool to watch too.<br /><br /><br />Do you like Quiznos?<br />Nope.

                <description><![CDATA[ So, my life has become THE DEFINITION of IRONY! lol<br />Seriously, I don't think I could have imagined more ironic situations then I seem to continuously be put in lately. Name it, it's probably happened.<br /><br />Man...at least I can laugh about it. It's like my little brother said today when I told him one thing that happened, "I'm not really surprised because...these things just seem to happen to you."<br /><br />He said the same thing about three weeks ago when the irony began to build.<br /><br />He's so right.<br /><br />Oh, I wonder what God has in store for me. <br /><br />I've given up trying to guess.<br /><br />Here's to Irony!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I'm really sick of seeing my old Journal entry, so this is to update.<br /><br />So I finished planning my trip to Europe! I'll be going to Switzerland, Venice, Rome, Toulouse, Paris, Berlin, and then a two week bike tour through Austria ending in Vienna. I'll be there for a little over 4 weeks! I'm so exited.<br /><br />I'm also going to Utah and Idaho for a few weeks! I'll see all of my friends and family that I haven't seen for 2 years.<br />Then I'm going with Autumn to Hawaii for 7-8 days! <br /><br />This is going to be the Summer of my life!<br /><br />After all of this traveling, I'll come home for about a week and then move into my apartment in Gainesville to finish my AA within the next year.<br /><br />I'm so humbled that I'm being able to do all of this. How many people really get to see the world? It's a dream coming true. The only thing I'm sad about is that in about a month I'll be leaving my YSA group. I'm going to miss all of them soooo much. They've become the best part of these past 7 months. I love them. They're my bro's and sisters. Two of them are on missions, and about 4 of them are going out to BYU Idaho for school. We're all going through changes and our lives are moving us in different directions. I hope we can all come back during winter break and see each other.<br /><br />Well, that's the update. Love life, it's too short to do anything else.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Alright this is another slightly sappy entry. I don't know why, but I just enjoy captivating these moments in a more poetic light. Tuesday night was wonderful. Out of a dream. Infact every night has been a dream. Tumn and Ko, if you want to hear more call me (I don't know though, the journal might be enought to satisfy your interest).<br />
<br />
We went to the ocean the other night and walked along the shore.<br />
We sat and talked about many things <br />
Fears and dreams<br />
Life and the abscence of life<br />
Then he took me to a castle in the sand<br />
And we sat upon the highest tower<br />
And talked somemore<br />
And he kissed me<br />
And I him<br />
And then he took me home in his carriage<br />
While playing tender songs of Music<br /><br /> ]]></description>

<br />
Last night I went to a bench by a lake. <br />
The moment was from a dream, <br />
only it was so much better, <br />
because it was real.<br />
And he held me.<br />
And I him.<br />
And we spoke as couple's do<br />
And the night ended with much more than tender words.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

<br />
But I'm so happy right now...<br />

I want all my friends to be happy like this and I can't wait to start hearing their own experiences!<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ I got sick and tired of seeing that overly depressing journal entry, so I decided to update.<br />
I'm a little stressed right now. Mom started talking to me about college and the future and stuff and I always get panicy when I think about that too much. I feel ready, but I still am a little frightend of the unknown, and then when she starts saying things like "It's ok to be scared. It's ok to make mistakes, they're unavoidable.....things might not happen the way you expect them too..." yada yada yada...I get just a twincy bit wigged out ya know? Ah well. I have things to look forward to, and I am exited about the future.<br />
<br />
I think I didn't do so hot on a Music Apprec. test this morning. There were things on that test that were NO WHERE in my notes. (Believe me, I checked). Oh well I've been doing really well so one bad test wont hurt too much. (Especially when I can get extra credit).<br />
<br />
Well I chould probably go. I need to finish my costume for my Halloween party on  Friday.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Dad got a message this morning. It was the chief of Police down at Ephraim, Ut. He told dad to call him back as soon as possible.<br />
Dad thought only of Trevor.<br />
I couldn't let my thoughts go there.<br />
Isn't weird that relief washed through me when Trevor called minutes later from the hospital.<br />
My relief turned to crushing dissapointment. I cried all the way home.<br />
Now I'm just upset. Upset and hurt.<br />
How could he do this?<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Alright yes I know this subject has probably been picked to nothing by now, but I just have to say my share.<br />
I finished re-reading it today (I've been sick), and I couldn't help how much good and joy there is in it. I know it is a sad book (It was the final battle what else could we expect) but amidst the fighting and dieing, there are so many scenes of love and friendship. I believe that reading it for a second time let me see that, because I was no longer focused on the pain.<br />
It must simply be a sign of our human nature to dwell on the sorrowful and painful events. I've been browsing for some time on Deviant art and I have so far found only few pictures displaying the heroic and loving events that take place in this book. Instead I see countless interpretations of Snape's grief, of Ron's grief, of the Weasley's grief, of Harry's pain, of Fred's death, of Snape's death, and so on. It is saddening that there are no depictions of Nevile's bravery (pulling the sword of the hat for instance), or of Luna's support to Harry, or Grawps battle's with the giant (I know that's pushing it, but you get my meaning right?).<br />
Please don't get me wrong, I think the artwork and the memorials to the tragic and painful events are beautiful, but I think we also need to honor our heroes in this book, in the way they'd like to be honored. I feel we need to focus on the good and realize J.K. Rowling didn't wish to leave us without hope.<br />
My applause to that incredible woman! She has long been an inspiration to me. Not only is she a genius in the written word, but she understands human nature, and in her own way, she has silently stated a thousands things. Her bravery, her tenacity, and her love for her family and for the world, is inspiring. I honor her as a writer and as one who showed this judgmental world that from the depths of poverty can greatness be born.<br />
I hope I can learn from her in many ways.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So I have been very busy adding to my favorites and I found a new artist whose work I love. (You can see a lot of it in my Fav.) I just finished bathing my dog and now I'm waiting for 9:30 to role around so I can have breakfast. I just came back from a bike ride and I passed some of the most beautiful homes. They were huge (not surprising considering where I was riding) and their grounds were, for lack of a better term, extensive, very extensive. To top it all off, many of these yards held beautiful pure bread horses. <br />
Needless to say I enjoyed the ride.<br />
I have no idea what I'm going to do today. Reading and maybe laying out in the sun come to mind, but besides that I'm at a loss. Oh well, I'll figure something out. I'm looking forward to Thursday (A.B.E. will be down to visit!). I'm also looking forward to the next couple of weeks; HP month, EFY, and much more. Wow I can't believe it's July already.<br />
Well I've ranted enough, ciao. ]]></description>

I'm sure it'll pass and by morning I'll feel better, but still, I really don't like it. I'm missing Daff and others and I feel like life is changing and I don't know what'll happen. I'm slightly frightend and I'm a bit overwhelmed.<br />

Thanks A.B.E. for the cute quiz to do, hope you don't mind me filling it out too. This year was great, (not my best but still cool). I met some incredible people, and stayed close to my old chicas. I can't wait for next year. (BYE BYE High School, Hello College and work!)<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Even though I am still young, I feel I have learned a great deal about time. Continuously changing, unfeeling and abrupt, it rushes on every moment of everyday, taking with it memories, dreams, hopes, fears, and in a moment, we are different, changed by its relentless buffetings.<br />
Time has been sweetly cruel to me. <br />
I have relished in the sweet tender moments of love and peace with those whom I love more than anything in this world, and I have clung through the darkest of days where seemingly no hope is found. Time brings both swiftly and takes away just as readily; however, it does seem to let those darker days linger on just a moment longer.<br />
As I reflect on the time I have loved, used, and wasted, I feel a bittersweet pain surge through my heart. How I wish I had more tenderly clung to those precious moments of serenity and felicity, and how I smile as I look back on what then felt like horrific trials and now emerge as mere trifles.<br />
Time is an entirely mortal law. Now as we dwell on Earth we must subject ourselves to its whim, but I know that once all Earth passes away, and as we escape these chains of humanity, time will altogether erase and have no meaning to us.<br />
Remembering this truth is difficult, especially when the night comes casting hurtful sorrows upon our souls. If we hold fast to the idea that everything is but a moment, soon to be swept away with another gust of wind, we will gain strength more valuable than any mortal arm.<br />
Time has changed me; as different as the land is to the sea, so too is my past self, and my present. I am wiser, older, and more humble because of it. I have come to a deep understanding of my own nothingness, and I realize I really know hardly anything. But these things I do know; that love is greater than any power in all existence and that by it wounds that could never be treated by medical means, are healed; friendships built upon trust, caring, selflessness and forgiveness will be worth more than all treasure combined and last longer than any grave; family is the most powerful force on the earth (besides the Lord's) and in the strongholds of a home will humanity be built and saved; and this truth, above all, that God the Almighty and his son Jesus Christ live and love all of us. They are my hope, my light in the darkest of days and coldest of nights. They hold me when all other arms fail, and my existence is in every sense indebted to them.<br />
Time teaches one these truths, and through its tests, reaffirms them deep in our hearts.<br />
My time on Earth had been richer than any dream. I have loved and been loved, not yet by any man, but by friends and by my family. I have known the best of all people, and my soul rejoices in these gifts.<br />
Time is an interesting subject and brings about the most curious emotions.<br />
Time has let me live these years of my life; time has brought me all my joy and pain. Time led me to the most wonderful of friends, and no matter how fast and furious it moves, time will never take them away from my heart.<br />
To those loved ones of whom I have alluded to, know this; that no matter where are lives take us, I will forever love you, and remember you in all my days.<br />
Time cannot whisk that away.<br />
