Tweet This has been the story of my life since summer started. I seriously go from laughing to crying in a matter of moments. I have never been a super emotional person, but as soon as I graduated I turned into one and I don’t like it. Everything in life has an upside and a downside..and I am for the first time in life struggling with looking at the downside. Instead of enjoying time with friends, I am thinking of how soon I will be leaving. Instead of being thankful for my parents, I complain..and the list goes on and on. But I must say I have two of the…

Tweet The Keys to Your Heart You are attracted to obedience and warmth. In love, you feel the most alive when things are straight-forward, and you’re told that you’re loved. You’d like to your lover to think you are stylish and alluring. You would be forced to break up with someone who was emotional, moody, and difficult to please. Your ideal relationship is lasting. You want a relationship that looks to the future… one you can grow with. Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment. You think of marriage as something precious. You’ll treasure marriage and treat it as…

Tweet Summer vacation is finally here!! And I don’t have highschool to look forward to at the end of it! However, all I have been doing is working all the time–I worked 9 hours the other day..crazy!! But it’s been fun..I will write more when I feel inspired..right now I just miss my friends.. just a thought..amanda

Tweet “Finish Strong” Those two words have been uttered more in the past month then I care to count. But what does finishing strong or well look like and mean? Does it mean just doing what you are doing? or stepping it up? And honestly, it’s hard to finish strong when you are in one sense finished. I am admitted to college, basically done with my classes, and 12 days out from graduating-so why are these last few days so important? Because that’s how people will remember me. Yes, I wish it weren’t true..but I have the ability by my actions in the next few days to leave either a…

Tweet Mr. Harmless tagged me and so now I am joining in. It’s a meme-no clue what that is, but anyways..the idea is there are 18 different occupations below and you are supposed to choose three and write a sentence finishing the beginning thought. then you are supposed to tag 3 other people and they are supposed to do the same thing. So since Mr. Harmless tagged me and he is quite possibly the coolest blogger ever I thought I would join in. you can find his post here. If I could be a scientist…If I could be a farmer…If I could be a musician…If I could be a doctor…If…

Tweet God has been teaching me alot about the importance of being faithful and the importance of never becoming comfortable..I have learned over the past few months that there are those few people in your life you can always count on..the very few who call you to hang out..the very few who offer a kind word of encouragement…the very few who offer to help you out..the very few who you can call at 11:00 at night to chat about your fight with your boyfriend, or your stupid idea…the very few who are willing to step out of what is comfortable into what is awkward, but right..and then there are the…

Tweet I am all signed up for classes in the fall!! I am taking 17 credit hours..a big load for a first semester freshman, but my only option if I actually want to graduate in four years. It’s getting harder and harder to do that. I went down to orientation Thursday..I know, odd time to go..but I was on spring break so I figured I might as well get it out of the way. My schedule is da bomb!! There are only two days I have to get up early and even those days my first class isn’t until 9!! Whoo hoo! I love it down there too. I really…
