The day I was afraid would never come...

This picture is to help explain what I am feeling inside :)

This is my official announcement that I have been accepted to Nursing school!!!
Ahhhhhhhhh.... All my hard work so far paid off with much more even harder work to come :) But here is the catch, I don't even care! I'm not even scared, only excitement from this girl. I don't think I have ever wanted something so much Ever in my life (And I have wanted alot:) as to be a nurse. So I will go back to what my Dad has programmed in my brain since I was 4 years old..... W.I.T. Whatever It Takes.
So, I will be moving to Orem in January and attending a Tech. College there for a year and then I transfer to s different University to finish my last year. I am soooooo relieved. 3years of pre-req's weight off my shoulders :) Thanks for everybody's support!

Whatever gets you through....



Whatever gets you through the day...
the week,
the semester,
the year........right?
Thats what I have been clinging onto these days when life is so rushed and busy and full of plans.

PLANS.... planing/planned/the plans falling through etc. etc. etc.
Lets also add in the stress that encompasses the plans. In a nut shell these stuations are called LIFE.
We all have our own lives and they are all busy and filled with our own stresses and situations blah blah blah...... I'm not sitting on a soap box today.

So... after my 21 years of trying to change these unwanted things that creep into our life I have realized... that guess what?! We can't change them.
My dad told me a quote that has stuck in my mind and is an awesome motto in everyone's life.

"If you don't like something change it.
If you can't change it, change the way you feel about it"

So I decide to change the little things.... Starting by being in a crappy situation that I can get out of... I just stick a Diet Coke in my hand and all is well.... For a moment at least :)

Its all about the little things... Thats what keeps me going.

....Dancing......Greys....Drives..... Work.....Diet Coke....Laughing.....Ice Cream...Friends/Family.....Chai Tea.....Progress




























Oh the little things.
I recently fell in love with a song titled
"Keep Breathing".
Makes me think that even though Ihave a thousand other things I have to do at any given moment, all I really HAVE to do is keep breathing....
I think I can do that.
And it feels so much better breath through a smile.
