New update! <3

Keep your head up, the colors are beautiful
When they say give up, turn up your radio

I want to believe in it all again - in art, fate, and love. And I want to believe that I’ve made the right choice and that I’m on the right path and there’s still time to fix the mistakes I’ve made. And I guess I want hope.

"The grand finale came as constant color, thunder shapes dancing and painting the sky. And it struck me that we were all there by choice and by chance. We were there to watch the wonder, no one telling us what to do or how to respond. In the final minute, as the skies exploded, we did the same, all of us clapping and cheering. We had become one thing. It was a significant moment for me in this my new home, not forever but for now. This city never stops. People call it a monster and talk about feeling swallowed and alone. People constantly give up and go home with broken dreams, feeling invisible, feeling forgotten. But last night I saw it pause. I saw thousands of people walk west with hope to catch a glimpse and then I saw them see it. I can't say why each person went or what their story was before the moment. I can only tell you that I went to feel alive. I went because it's too easy to forget, to believe the black night sky is only always black. I went to stand next to my friends in hopes that we could share this, remember this. Last night, I hope you felt the fireworks. I hope you saw the wonder when skies filled up with color. And in the moment, I hope you were reminded that it's possible, that beauty still happens. We don't only live in books awake and dreams asleep. We are living our stories you and I, with dreams inside us undeniable, love to give and people to walk with. I hope for you what I hope for myself. I hope for you the hope to know it."

Growing up is never easy.
You hold on to things that were.
You wonder what’s to come.
But that night,
I think we knew it was time to let go of what had been,
and look ahead of what would be.
Other days.
New days.
Days to come.
The thing is, we didn’t have to hate each other for getting older.
We just had to forgive ourselves for growing up.

I've spent a lifetime, waiting for the right time.
There is no better time than here right now.

There is much in the world to make us afraid.
There is much more in our faith to make us unafraid.

God did not make us to be eaten up by anxiety, but to walk, unafraid in a world where there is work to do, and love to give and win.

We can spend our lives letting this world tell us who we are. Sane or Insane. Saints or sex addicts. Heroes or victims. Letting history tell us how bad or good we are. Let our past decide our future.Or we can decide for ourselves.
And maybe it’s our job to invent something better.

You could say that I was given a wake up call today about things going on in my life. My college life is going to be starting in three weeks. It's so crazy to think that time has gone by this fast. I remember starting high school an thinking of how much of a blast it's going to be. Now, I'm completly done and ready to start the next chapter of my life. I know that it will completly different but, I know that I'm ready. Friends, enough said. I guess you could say that I don't talk to many of my high school friends anymore. It makes me sad because some of those people I had the time of my life with. I know a lot of them will be going to the community college that I'm going to so, I know I will be seeing some of them. Plus, I'm excited to meet new people in my different classes. My boyfriend and I are pretty amazing right now. He makes me so happy. I truly know the definition of love now that I have someone like him in my life. I couldn't imagine myself with anyone else. We balance eachother out very well. Another thing is, I got a job interview. I applied at aeropostale a couple days ago. I talked to the manager for a couple minutes only to have her say she wants to do a interview with me on tuesday. I'm so excited!
My life has its rough spots and may seem chaotic at moments but, I wouldn't want it any other way.
