BuCkLe Up && EnJoY tHe RiDe..*

i've really been slacking with this whole blogging thing
lately. so here's catching up.
i got my graduation date at school. brace yourselves....
FEBRUARY 23!!! so soon.
i'm freakin' out a little but super excited too.
i'm ready to take the
next step in this crazy life i live. i THINK i'm
ready to grow up...but we'll see:]

so i have this best friend.
her name is Brittney. Can i just tell you how amazing she is?
her and i have the same
brain i think. haha we're always thinkin' the same things.
it's just great! she
and i are kind of at the same point in life. A point
where if people knew,
they might look down on us or judge us.. but honestly
i'm ok with that.
i'm just keepin' my chin up and takin' it one day
at a time. not letting the
little things get to me. and it helps to have someone
stickin' it out with me.
Whoever we both end up marrying has to realize that
its sort of a package deal.
he can't have one without the other:] And one
day we're gonna own a pretty
legit salon together.... hopefully!:]

On friday, my friend tara's little girl had her 8th birthday! she's so cute. i LOVE her! Britt and i went to her birthday party and we sat around the campfire and sang Taylor Swift songs! it was so much fun!

well... this past week our assignment at school was makeup.. my FAVORITE. so here's some fun stuff i did!

"if you don't create change, change will create you"

so... i've been thinkin a lot these past few weeks. There's a lot of things in my life that i'm not very happy with right now. that needs to change. I've got to be happy with myself and my life before i can expect to move on to the next phase of life. Life seems to have a way of changing so much so fast..that i kind of got lost in all the confusion. And as hard as it has been to adjust from the last change... its finally starting to get better. I need to learn not to fall so hard sometimes..i'm just a silly girl sometimes. I had a long talk with my dad last time i was home and he told me to, "be my best self". thats my goal this next year. i'm going to be my best self. and show a side of me that people don't get to see very often. i'm going to try not to take things personally.. thats going to be so hard. I'm going to go out of my comfort zone and meet new people. A change is much needed in this crazy life i'm living. Things need to be re-evaluated. BIG time.

Can i just tell you that my little brother is a stud?! oh my. He just started 7th grade and is in middle school now! They are having a dance on Friday and he got asked by FIVE girls if he would go with them! haha he's so funny. i asked him if any of them were hot, and he said oh yes. like "oh baby oh baby hot" haha he's so funny. i love my family so much. just let me tell you.

OHHHH. and my best friend is gettin married... so crazy. i still feel like we are in grade school! ah i miss her like crazy but i'm so happy for her and everything she is doing in her life. ah. she's the bomb!

I'M AN AUNT! still not used to it, but i love it. Shes the most precious little girl! ahh i'm sooo happy she's finally here!!

meet Maylee Rae! isn't she the best?!
