My ode to Taco Bell

So tonight I got to enjoy one if the simple pleasures in life known only as taco bell. You see the Taco Bell on my side of town got “closed” for remodeling and then never opened back up. It got bought out bu somebody who then named it “The Crazy Dutchman” which is nothing at all like Taco Bell. This was the day my life was changed drastically. Because, well you see, the nearest Taco Bell is thirty minutes away. And I am a poor kid who doesn’t have enough money to drive thirty minutes every time my heart so desires Taco Bell. So when my friend Alison suggested that we grab some taco bell I was down. Sold. It didn’t take much convincing. So a good time was to be had by all. I went to Taco Bell and thoroughly enjoyed my chicken quesadilla. I was delighted. I also had an awesome time catching up with Alison. She just gets me. Things that are never intended to be funny around her suddenly become hilarious. So all in all I’d say between the Taco Bell and my amazing friend it was a successful night.

So I’m sitting here in my den watching my absolute favorite show , Brothers and Sisters although gLee comes a very close second. I’ve watched about ten episodes of glee in the past 24 hours. My mom got season one for Christmas and I’ve been sick all day so I watched glee. I’ll let you in on a secret: glee is my real life dream. If I was just walking down the street and everybody just busted out in song I would be thrilled. I would join in and sing along. Anyway I’m watching brothers and sisters now just sitting in the den with my family. I’m very hungry but I’m scared to eat anything because like I said I’ve been sick all day. My mom absolutely hates this show but she sits down and watches it every week. It’s funny really. Well I’m gonna finish watching my show and then probably go to sleep or maybe watch some more glee. Who knows we shall see we shall see

Today

So it’s new years eve and thats exciting. I guess this will be mostly for me to read later on but here goes. What am I doing at this very moment I’m helping my friend clean some furniture and get it moved upstairs. Later on I’ll be going to a bonfire ad sitting down with a few friends for new years. I’m just gonna take this moment in and enjoy it. That’s my goal for 2011, to live in the moment more. To appreciate the little things that make me happy and not worry about what I’m doing that night or the next day or the next week. This year idk what will come but whatever it is im sure it will be great. This year I want to find myself again because it seems I’ve kind if lost who I am. Ive always been sure of what I want and who I am. I want to reroot myself in what I know to be truth. Ive let myself get to a place I never thought I’d be. And that’s gotta change.

It’s been a while

So it’s been a long while since I’ve last posted a blog so I guess I’ll update you on my life. Earlier this year I started school at FDTC (Florence Darlington Technical College) and after about a month of doing that I realized that it just wasn’t for me…I really have no idea what I want to do for the rest of my life but as for now I’m taking a break from school. I’m working at a daycare and I love my job. It’s been getting me thinking about being a teacher but we’ll see about that. In the past couple of months my life has kind of changed a bit. In the last couple of months I’ve graduated high school, started a new job, lost some relationships, and built some as well. It’s been kind of different from everything I’ve known my whole life but change is good. The relationships I’ve lost I miss but I’ve learned about growing up and growing apart. On the flip side the new relationships I’ve been blessed with I wouldn’t trade for the world. I’ve become a little more independent since you’ve last heard from me which may or may not be a good thing. I’ve learned what it’s like to be an “adult” a little bit more (not to say that I’m an adult because there is no way I could make it on my own right now) and real responsibility. I love my life right now and honestly wouldn’t change anything about it. I wish I knew what direction I’m supposed to be going in right now but if I’m honest I have no clue. So I guess this is my little update for now that’s all.

Amazing grace

….that saved a wretch like me.

I once was lost

but now I’m found.

For you…

Well, my summer is quickly coming to a close, unfortunately and this summer has been one crazy ride.

I’ve grown many friendships this summer that i have to say, i’m sad haven’t grown before this point. I’m coming up to a new point in my life and i can’t think of any better way than to share it with the people who have been and are there for me. So this blog my friends, is for you.

Thank you. Thank you for the laughs, the fights, the ups, the downs, for sitting with me when i couldn’t even talk, for making me mashed potatoes, and bringing me soup, the late night trips to wal mart, for listening to me complain about nothing that mattered, for understanding who I am and what I stand for, for letting me do me, for being more like a sister and less like a friend .Thank you for letting me into your lives and into your hearts, thank you for opening up your homes and families to me, thank you for loving me and Thank you for just being a friend.

Your friendship to me means more than you will ever know. and if i haven’t said it enough, thank you. I love you.

well then

So its Easter morning at 1:01 and I’m still awake. This means that my senior spring break is coming to an end This spring break was really awesome, spring break usually is but this one was pretty stinkin awesome. This past monday was a milestone in my life…i turned 18…doesn’t really mean much except i can now clean up throw up at work…so i’m really excited about that…NOT. I got to celebrate my birthday with my CRASH which is probably the best way to spend it. All of the chaperones and youth went out of their way all day to make me feel special which was really sweet.  We got to play paintball later on during the day which was soooo much fun. It had rained the day prior to so the field was muddy which made it all that much more exciting.  I’m listening to Celine Dion right now in my headphones which makes me think about how i will be going to see her next summer!!!!! I CANNOT DESCRIBE MY EXCITEMENT FOR THAT TRIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Chelsea Clay and I will be taking a trip out to Vegas in summer of  ’11 to see her perform live!!! well then, i guess thats all for now. HAPPY EASTER. Jesus loves you!

Its been a while..

So its been a while since i blogged last and i was feeling a little inspired to do so, thus here i am. I’m not exactly sure what i want to write about so i’m just gonna write whats going on in my life right now. My life is absolutely wonderful…it really always is but sometimes i feel like im at malfunction junction. Not neccessarily like my life is falling apart, but like everyone elses around me is. Now, don’t get me wrong I’m not asking for problems I’m just a little heartbroken for some of my friends and family right now. Galations 6:2 Carry each others burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ. and sometimes i look at the world around me and my heart literally breaks for how lost this world is. But then on days like today i walk out of my house and the sun is shining and i feel so at peace because of the beauty of God’s workmanship and its hard to stay “down”.  And then i think of all the wonderfull things that God is doing in my life I’m filled with such JOY! you know its funny He is always doing awesome things but i bypass all the wonderfulness so many times because I’m too caught up with myself. So today i challenge you to just look around you even if you are at “malfunction junction”. Look at all the wonderful things you have going on around you and be Glad.
