Let's just take one step at a time.

I'm writing another post because I'm sitting at home bored. I've been asked the question:
What is your 2010 theme song?????
So here I am, looking through iTunes at my 1,238 songs and about halfway through I found it!!

One Step at a Time by Jordin Sparks

Hurry up and wait
So close, but so far away
Everything that you've always dreamed of
Close enough for you to taste
But you just can't touch

You wanna show the world, but no one knows your name yet
Wonder when and where and how you're gonna make it
You know you can if you get the chance
In your face as the door keeps slamming
Now you're feeling more and more frustrated
And you're getting all kind of impatient waiting

[Chorus:]
We live and we learn to take
One step at a time
There's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly
Or falling in love
It's gonna happen and it's
Supposed to happen that we
Find the reasons why
On step at a time

You believe and you doubt
You're confused, you got it all figured out
Everything that you wished for
Could be yours, should be yours, would be yours
If they only knew

You wanna show the world, but no one knows your name yet
Wonder when and where and how you're gonna make it
You know you can if you get the chance
In your face as the door keeps slamming
Now you're feeling more and more frustrated
And you're getting all kind of impatient waiting

[Chorus:]
We live and we learn to take
One step at a time
There's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly
Or falling in love
It's gonna happen and it's
Supposed to happen that we
Find the reasons why
On step at a time

When you can't wait any longer
But there's no end in sight
It's the faith that makes you stronger
The only way you get there
Is one step at a time

[Chorus:]
Take one step at a time
There's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly
Or falling in love
It's gonna happen and it's
Supposed to happen that we
Find the reasons why
On step at a time

[Chorus:]
One step at a time
There's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly
Or falling in love
It's gonna happen and it's
Supposed to happen that we
Find the reasons why
On step at a time

This song describes my life completely. I have been attending Westminster College for about a year and a half and I still have absolutely no idea what I want to do with my life. The tragedy. I started out with nursing classes but I came to the realization that I am not nursing material. It is insane how much work nursing classes take. Now I'm not saying that other majors aren't as hard but nursing was slightly ridiculous. Anyways, back to the song. I am now transferring to Utah State to see what my life leads to next. I still have no clue what to major in but as the song states: there's no need to rush. What exactly am i rushing towards anyways? Life after college doesn't seem quite as thrilling as the college life. Working constantly and being in the "real world" is not something i'm looking forward to. I want to live in this stage of my life as long as possible. 

Jordin Sparks smartly sings about how it's the faith that makes us stronger when the end isn't in sight. Words of advice ladies and gentlemen. I have struggled with this. I came to the conclusion that my life is going nowhere fast and I have no end in sight at all. I barely know what I will be wearing the next day, let alone 5 years down the path. All i know is that in 5 years, i wanna be married, have a job that i truly enjoy, surrounded by friends and family, and just be lovin my life. That's what most people want (unless you truly hate society and everyone in it; if that's so, i tip my hat to you). 

I have a lot of kinks to work out, but who doesn't? I procrastinate, I judge occasionally, I'm basically the standard teenager. But I've learned a lot since graduating from high school and I feel like i've matured and grown a lot. I know i'll figure out what to do with my life; all i need to do is take one step at a time. :)

Just some pictures displaying me enjoying my teenage years :)

this is what i want.

Hello people. So today I've been listening to the LDS Hymns of Worship Pandora station while I've been at work. I've decided I'm going to listen to this everywhere I go. I feel so calm and at peace when I listen to it. I want to be better. Better at life. Better at this gospel. Better at school. Better at making friends. Just.... better. I haven't been completely happy lately. I've just kinda.... been here. ha All I do is go to school and work. So these are the things I'm going to do. 1. I'm going to read a General Conference talk once a week. 2. I'm going to pray every morning and night on my knees away from my bed. 3. I'm going to read Emily Freeman's book Becoming His and apply it to my life. 4. I'm going to read the scriptures once a day. 5. I'm going to attend the temple once a week. Alone. 6. I'm going to do one act of service a day. At least. 7. I'm going to put myself out there more. Talk to anyone. ...

Adventures is Out There: England Style Part I.

May 26-27, 2014  Up at 7:30am. Packed and ready to go :) my mom was having a minor heart attack about me leaving. We met Kinsey at some gas station so that we could all drive to the airport together! Once we were at the airport I realized that my mom was being VERY chill compared to Kinsey's mom. Her mom had printed out about a million sheets of information on scams travelers should avoid and everything. Also she told us that the number one rule we HAD to follow was "don't talk to strangers and don't make eye contact when you're walking on the streets." She said it was our homework for the flight to memorize all of the scams as well . We said of course Lisa. Did we actually study it? For about a minute. But then we were distracted by some guy that wouldn't stop talking to us. He said he was good pals with Uchtdorf. So we broke the number one rule and we were still in Salt Lake.  Finally we boarded. Our first flight was from Salt Lake to Seattle. Wasn't...

It has been one whole year since finding out about something that changed my life and my family forever. I can't believe it's been a year. What a long, rough year. But it was full of so many blessings. When I found out about my dad, I thought my life was over. I couldn't even believe what was happening. For the first four months, I was in a state of depression that I never thought I would get out of. My poor roommates had to deal with my dead self and I'll be forever grateful for them because they did. I felt like I was carrying the weight of the world on my shoulders. I felt responsible for my family. After about four months, I started to feel happy again about little things and I started seeing some of the blessings in my life. Once summer hit, I thought I was back to my old self because I had such a blast this past summer. That, in and of itself, was a MAJOR blessing. It made me realize that I do have friends that care about me and that there are things in life tha...
