Busy...

I'm on a two week break from school, so...

I've started a 1,000 piece puzzle.

It's very addicting and time consuming.

I've spent around 6 hours on it already, and have so much to do yet.

Wish me luck.

Spring Cleaning..

Spring is here!

Finally!

It's my favorite season, after fall. I don't like the 100 degree temperatures of summer. I love the 70 degree weather of spring. I love seeing the grass turn green, and being able to spend a whole day outside without applying sunscreen and worry about dehydration. Spring is perfect.

Spring cleaning is also something that comes with this time of year. I guess when I was younger we did this because we always had a garage sale in the summer. Well for years, I haven't really done that - and I need to! Just with my clothes. Nothing really fits anymore. Since my senior year (3 years ago) I have lost 20lbs. Don't ask me what I did or how I did it - cause I have no idea. I think it's because money was so tight that I only bought food that that I considered necessary. So snack food and junk food were foods I rarely bought!

So I am gonna start cleaning!

Wish me luck!

P.S. Spring - I'm so happy you're here.

Slow Dance

I received this forward today in my email. I usually don't read long forwards, but for some reason I did today, and I'm glad I did. This is a poem that was written by teenage girl with cancer who was given 6 months to live.

Have you ever watched kids
On a merry-go-round?

Or listened to the rain
Slapping on the ground?

Ever followed a
butterfly's erratic flight?

Or gazed at the sun
into the fading night?

You better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.

Time is short.
The music won't last..

Do you run through each day
On the fly?

When you ask How are you?
Do you hear the reply?

When the day is done
Do you lie in your bed

With the next hundred chores
Running through your head?

You'd better slow down
Don't dance so fast.

Time is short.
The music won't last.

Ever told your child,
We'll do it tomorrow?

And in your haste,
Not see his sorrow?

Ever lost touch,
Let a good friendship die

Cause you never had time
To call and say,'Hi'

You'd better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.

Time is short.
The music won't last.

When you run so fast
to get somewhere

You miss half the fun
of getting there.

When you worry and hurry
through your day,

It is like an unopened gift....
Thrown away.

Life is not a race.
Do take it slower

Hear the music
Before the song is over.

I'm Back.

I'm back. Hopefully.

School is stressing me out and it's only gonna get worse.

I usually calm down with a pint of ice cream, but with lent going on right now, I decided to give up ice cream. Dumbest idea I've ever had. I miss it soo much!!

But I have a few good things coming up that I'm very excited for!!

1. - John Mayer
(and a night with some good friends.)

2. - Moving
(if we ever find a place)

3. - My Best friends wedding :)

4. - Hettinger County Fair
it may sound lame to most, but 32 below will be there
(a very popular ND band, and I'm finally 21!)

5. - WeFest!!!!

I promise to try to post more often. Sorry I've been slacking.

P.s. Hi Heather :)
