Many of you know that I have a big heart and really care for anyone and everyone. My heart always goes out towards the families who are struggling while going though a trial in life. Whither it be a death in the family to someone having a disease to missing someone this holiday season I care for them all no matter what. They all have a spot in my heart, each and everyone of them.
One thing to be thankful for this holiday season is for all the doctors and people out there who care for all the children who have cancer and make it possible for them to live as long as possible and to have the best life that they can no matter what they are battling.
(Please watch this video of a song Matthew West wrote about the story of a little boy named Dax who's parents were told he wouldn't make it to Christmas 2009)
Dax will forever be in our memories along with all the other children who have left before their time. Without them so many others wouldn't have the strength that they have today. Love these kids each and everyone of them. They have left such a big impact on this world and will continue to. Their story will carry on.

You are also a great photographer.

Hannah S: There is so much I could say about you. You are a great friend. I'm so glade that we have gotten to know each other better the past couple of months. I love how fast you can fold a three headed dragon. It takes real talent to be able to do it how fast you can also on getting them as small as you can. I love how smart you are in math. You can be given any math problem and you will figure it out no matter how hard it is. You are always there for friends when they need you.

College
Wow. It's hard to believe...I'm not in High School anymore.
I'm graduated and not going back.
The newest chapter in my life is starting up.
College.
Never thought I would make it this far. Yet I'm here. I already know my major is.
Yet I'm having doubts about the school I've chosen to go to. I'm not quite sure this is the school I want to get my degree at. Everything I was told that they offer their for photography is not what I was told. They got rid of the film photography. One of the main things I was looking forward to college was getting to work on film photography. Learn how to take good quality film pictures, develop them myself, not going to happen at UVU. I've started to look at other university's to see if they still offer film photography. From what I've found so far it looks like BYU still offers film photography along with digital, but I don't want to fully switch over there in till I have found out for sure that they DO offer film photography along with digital. If they do then I will finish up with my associate's degree at UVU. Getting all my generals out of the way that way once I transfer to BYU all I have to worry about is working toward my major.
In other news....Here's a run down of what college has been like so far.
Peace out for now

Thank You
So many things have happened since I've last blogged.
As many of you know, I found out at the beginning of 4th term that I was messing some credits and that I might have to pull out of Lehi and go to East Shore and do packets to make up all the credits. (found this out before spring break) Then after spring break we found a way were I could still go to Lehi part time and go to East shore part time to make up the credits. It wasn't very easy and it was very hard to do. I had to do 18 packets at East Shore and honestly there were many times when I wanted to give up but I didn't. I kept on pushing on and I got them done.
If it wasn't for my friends pushing me to get them done so I can graduate on time with my class and walk at graduation I probably would have just gave up. Ya'll probably don't realize how much it means to me that you all were so supportive of me having to get these packets done and just being there for me means to me but it means the world to me. I couldn't have done it without you guys. Thanks soooooooooooooo much for being such great supporting friends and just being there for me. Just the little things like being there or when I was having a hard time and you sat down and talked to me and cheered me up means so much. Thank you. I love each one of ya'll and I honestly don't know where I would be if it wasn't for all of you. Thank you Thank you Thank you.
I really want to thank the one's who were there the most for me(some of you I may have already thanked but I don't think I can thank you enough for how much help you truly have been to me)...
I still can't believe that this Friday. June 3rd. That I graduate from high school. I can't believe that I made it. Time has just flown by. So unbelievable. So exciting. I'm gonna miss all my friends I've made in high school.
Thank you all.
Lots of Love

Yes it is true. I'm crazy and all that jazz. So what? It's who I am!!!
So Film Festival is coming up pretty excited to go to that. Lots going on and I really don't feel like talking about all of it. haha.
So I've decided that I have a problem and that I should go to rehab for it...yes yes....I'm addicted to gum. I have about 500 pieces or more of it. I'm pretty sure that if I wanted to I could break a world record on most chewed pieces of gum at one time. I'm still thinking about that. You never know I just might do it one day :)
Well guys it's great blogging to ya. Idk who you are probably some creep or someone who knows me. whatever. Thanks for liking my randomness!!!

Fancy and Dancy
Kinda wanted to blog...what about? I don't quit know yet, but I'll figure it out as I write I guess.
Well I guess a lot has been going on in my life regrading graduation and other stuff.
But I don't really feel like writting a blog about that at least yet. Maybe in the future...Maybe once I graduate. You'll just have to stay tuned and not touch that dial.
I got two words that need to be said and well I don't know how I'm gonna say it...I mean it's kinda hard to say...you know? Well I'm just gonna come out and say it....

Peace!
