Once upon a blog...

Facebook has become a little too boring for me, so I decided to start a blog! I promise I'll try to get on here as much as I can! Now that finals are done I *seem* to have more time on my hands!

Just a little bit about me:

*I'm almost 21 years old, but I don't feel like I'm "that old". I've grown up a lot just in these past few years, but every person needs a little bit of fantasy and childishness in them!

*I love....No, let me say that again.... LOVE Coca Cola! Coke is my drink. I'm not addicted to this beautiful drink (really. I can go loooong periods of time without drinking any soda) but when I'm having a hard day, a good day, or just about any day, I like to "celebrate" with a drink of coke! Even days where I have no real reason to celebrate I find something to celebrate about! Drinks up!

*I'm a princess. Seriously. I'll dedicate another post to just that later on, but for now just know that I am indeed a princess, and with that comes great responsibility. You (whoever you are) are also royalty! We're all children of a King, and I take that knowledge with gratitude and joy! Our Heavenly Father loves us! He loves me! And I love Him!

*I'm working on my mission papers (another post for the future), and though it hasn't been the easiest thing I've ever done it has been so fulfilling! As I prepare to get out there and preach the Gospel, I can already feel the Savior's blessings raining down upon my family and I. I'M SO EXCITED TO GO!!!

*MUSIC.......Without a healthy dose of good music everyday, I turn into a vegetable. (A carrot, to be exact). I can't live without music. I LOVE to sing, and I can't help but harmonize to any and every song I hear. It's a habit that I can't seem to break. But I love it all the same. :)

*I'm the oldest child. I have a crazy-fun younger sister. I like to call her Madds. She's a sweetheart (when she's not teasing me ;) ) and she always puts other first. I truly admire that about her. We're in a rock band together. We hold performances in my kitchen every few weeks, so if you get the chance to make it to one of our "concerts" you better deem yourself PRIVELEGED. She's lead vocals, and I'm her backup. I'm also the back-up dancer. We love the power of Rock and Roll. "Be excellent to each other" .... rock on, little sis, rock on.

And then there's The Dude. The Dude is so super smart and really funny. He's 13 years old and already has a score of 22 on the ACT. Dude.... that's siiiiick. He and I love watching funny videos together. Somehow, they're only really funny when I watch them with him. When he's laughing at something stupid somehow my brain says "Huh. This crap is HILARIOUS!", and from there, it's history. Laugh away, little bro, laugh away.

*My parents are the best. EVER. I couldn't have asked for more understanding, loving, supportive, FUN, funny, and crazy people to have been my parents! These two are my strength, and I look up to them. We're an eternal family, and for that I feel the greatest joy in knowing!

*....Um, I don't know what else to say at the moment...
and to be honest this post is getting long, and I don't want my first "followers" to get too bored...

...Plus I'm getting bored of typing....

 So I'll see ya around! Till next time...
