had a barbeque stain on my white t-shirt

A couple things...

Tim Mcgraw hobbled around on a cane during this entire concert
I hate monday, especially this one
I can't wait for this season of the bachelorette to be O-V-E-R
I'm ready for Thursday to be here
I'm broke and practically homeless but my God is bigger
If I could relive last Friday night 48392 times, I would

here's to tomorrow being better than today, homies

peace

And when they prevailed over them, the Hagrites and all who were with them were given into their hands, for they cried out to God in the battle, and he granted their urgent plea because they TRUSTED in him.
—1 Chronicles 5:20

oh yah... and I think TRUST and PATIENCE are two of the biggest lessons I will have to learn in this life.

I have brown hair

...and I'm off to see Time Mcgraw tonight! pictures to come soon:)

Not to mention the fact that I have an exam in the morning and a therapy session tomorrow afternoon. Real life can suck sometimes but I would not trade it for anything. We don't always get these moments back, ya know?

oh, and HAPPY WEEK UNTIL YOUR WEDDING, CHELSEA HEATH! You are going to make such a BEAUTIFUL bride and I cannot wait to celebrate with you next weekend. I pray for a LIFETIME of love, happiness, and blessings for you and Chris!

a little of this, a lot of that

:)

it's funny how things change. it's also funny how they don't

22 years have gone by in my life! That's a little strange to think about. I always imagined 22 to be so stinkin' old. Now that I am here, I'm almost afraid to go forward. I've realized lately that me gaining a year is not really a huge deal at this point in my life. I don't really realize its significance. However, someday there will come a time when I long for these years back like I long for some of my earlier ones back.

What a scary thing time is...

I hope this weekend you are able to bask in the time that you do have. Wherever you may be, I hope you are able to embrace the 4th of July and remember what exactly it took for us, as a country, to get to this place in time. Don't ever forget that we are still fighting to stay here.

Thanks to all of those who have fought past, present, and future for us to be able to celebrate such a beautiful day!

so far away from where you are

This weekend was so wonderful. I cannot even put into words what it meant to me.

Friday night we saw kenny chesney play a show. He is one of the greatest performers I have ever seen. He completely captures his audience on every level possible. What an incredible gift to not only be able to perform well, but to also relate and connect to your fans in such a powerful way.

I met with a friend today who is going through one of life's trials. She was so incredibly strong talking about something that I couldn't even begin to think about. I know that she will come out on top of this. Looking at my life, I can't help but to think back on some of my trials and realize that there is absolutely no way I would take any of those struggles back. I appreciate the good things so much more because I know what it is like to walk through the fire.

I also learned how much people can surprise you this weekend. Thankfully, this weekend, it was for the good.

have a good monday:)

I'm doin' cartwheels

I haven't posted in awhile on account of the fact that I'm lazy. But when it comes down to it, it's only been a weekend since my last rant. This is good right?

This weekend was the BRAD PAISLEY concert. Country concerts always give me such butterflies. What a life that must be to live.

Here's a few snapshots from the weekend. It included swimming, brad, and father's day. What was your favorite part of the weekend??

sing me somethin' sweet

I've completely gone into some sort of "hiding"ever since yesterday, cancelled plans and sulked. I'm not one that takes pride in feeling sorry for herself, but there comes a time when there is nothing left to do but pull yourself away for a little awhile and just be alone with yourself. I think that is one of the most fearless relationships that you can have. It's important to be able to give yourself a check, do some journaling, and deal with the junk that you can't sweep under the rug anymore.

So, tonight, I've taken pride in sweatpants, pizza from Bravos, grey's anatomy season two, some light reading, and my guitar. Oh! and some Adele to go along with it. I'm pretty sure she writes a song for every mood.

I went out last night with some friends to just celebrate a typical thursday night. I was actually, surprisingly, not much in the mood to let loose and go wherever the wind takes me. I had to work this morning so I was much more like a parent I felt like, trying to make sure everyone else wasn't whoring themselves out to whoever would take it. To be perfectly honest, I'm a little upset at how easily girls "give it up". I'm not talking about sex here (although it can apply), but the simple attention and affection from ANY guy is enough to make a girl fall to her knees (not literally I hope) and somewhat imagine a life that goes further beyond the next game of pool. Have we lost our dignity and respect as females? Are we becoming THAT desperate for something more that we are willing to compromise out personal morals and beliefs for the sake of a cheap booty call?

I'm not excluding myself from this, because who doesn't enjoy the occasional dreamy look or arm around the shoulder to make them feel like they "belong". But what is it going to take to realize that our dignity and worth does not come from a man who can't even stay faithful to the one he is with?

One of my fave pictures from the night.... love you dre!
