Gracie.

Lets just say I met someone. A new best friend.
Don't get to excited. She's of age four.
Background: every thanksgiving my uncle brings random people of all kinds.
He brings those who don't have family, or don't have anywhere to be on thanksgiving.
This time it was different. A mother shows up, running behind i see a little girl.
The mother has been in and out of jail. She is a drug addict.
Her four year old daughter Gracie has been through multiple foster homes.
 I fell in love with this little girl.
We spent the whole day together. We played Polly pockets. We jumped on the tramp. We played hide&seek. We took Sasha for a walk.
She reminded me of when i was a little girl. She was stubborn, so was I. She had a mind of her own.

The end of the day was near, i knew she would have to leave. I couldn't bare the thought of sending her away. I wanted her more then i have ever wanted anything. Her mother could never be there for her.
She ran to me and gave me one last hug. I didn't want to let go. ever. She whispered to me "lets play tomorrow". I wanted that so much. I told her I'd miss her. I hope to see her again, perhaps adopt?
When i grow up my daughter will be named Gracie.
I hope the best for little Gracie.

just because its true.

here we go.

:::[write seven random things about yourself, then have everyone else follow the trend]:::

this appeared on Cammie's blog awhile back, as we all know i forget things and this blog seems to be one of them. so now i have something to write about.

Here she is:

1.  i've always dreamed of living in a old cottage home and dressing it up.

2.  i enjoy driving and taking my dog Sasha with me. she is always up for an adventure. 

 

3.  i'm excited for college, ecstatic. yet i haven't applied or put any effort forth in actually going, its creeping up on me faster then i thought.

 

4.  i like  love fireworks. So much. July is a great month.

 

5.  i am terrified of bears. I dream of them often. weird i know.

 

6.  oh my bieber? yes, i had bieber fever so bad in fact i saw the movie 24 times or so.

 

7< my lucky number, never seems to fail me.

 

you go now.

letters

receiving a envelope with your name on it leaves me a bit giddy inside.
Ive made a new friend, well more than one that is, the mail box&them.
And when i say "them" meaning those who come in pairs, wear tags and dedicate 2 years to The Church Of Jesus Christ and Latter Day Saints. aka: missionaries, Yes I love them.
They have a very soft spot in my heart.
This is the transformation where the boy becomes a man.
I have become Pan pals with a few. Its been the highlight to my distorted life.
Take a minute, write a missionary.

week one

Senoritas started early on Junior year. Now i have senior-senoritas. Its bad i know. I have a tardy problem.
Some times i walk around PGHS and wonder what im even doing there. Where do i fit in?
I have no tolerance for those who throw people down in the pit, those who use negative judgement.
Im done with the whole bit, i could walk out of PGHS for good&I wouldnt look back.
considering Im saying this the FIRST week of school is a bit foolish.
Well folks, looks like another year that PGHS will be seriously avoided.
just think happy thoughts:
I love highschool.
I love highschool.
I love highschool.
Just remember to surround your self with nice people who have common courtesy.
it will make it easier for you, guaranteed.

these days happen.

waking up today with 5 cold sores surrounding my mouth&three canker sours isn't the most pleasant way to start off a day. I could have blamed it on a day without chap stick, but quite frankly it was all that stress compacted. Prior to that, my brother wakes me up at 10. I had completely forgot my "soon to be" sister in law was dress shopping. My fever broke out and i wasn't able to make it. 

All i wanted was a hot bubble bath. Later finding out our water is shut off till monday night.(something wrong with a pipe) You have got to be kidding me. I needed to get out of my house! So I begin to drive my sister to walmart. A bug is crawling on the ceiling by my head and i freak out, loose the steering wheel and end up on the side walk on the left side of the curb. a foot away from a fence and inches away from a ditch. plus i didn't end up in a head on collision."someone was looking out for me today". Both tires on the left side blown. This was my first "sort of" car accident. I turned to my sister and cried&cried&cried. It wasn't the best day of my life.

Don't let a bad day feel like you have a bad life. it will get better.

good o'l PG

good news, i learned something today.

After dragging on about how much i want to get out of this place(Pleasant Grove)

I realized something. Its called Pleasant Grove for a reason.

it is quite a pleasant place. choose to enjoy, you can deary.

I'm stuck here for another year! high school only lasts so long.

hey look friend, we even have our own mountain with a G. 

old town center, its cute.

and a temple right up the road.

find joy in the place you live, you can, its possible. 

i found it.

here i am,

Three words discribing my summer:

1. change
2. fear
3. confusion

those three words are scary, but im happy.
without change i wouldn't be the person i am now.
without fear i wouldn't know how to hope.
without confusion, well its a part of high school.
 be prepared for change and adjust.
God has a plan for us.

I now will continue to write and update.
I enjoy the satisfaction of reading other blogs, i want to join again. :)

day one

 went to pizza pie cafe. what a delight.

blurry but it'll do.

went on a hunt to find places to take pictures.

found this.

took the most awkward picture known to man.

were cute when we want to be.

got stuck behind bikers going 5 mph

tried to take a picture through the sun roof. Fail.

haven't laughed this hard in a long time.

A cow tried to kiss me!!! that's not weird

went on a walk, ended up at good old Manilla Elementary.

Miss those days.

My vote of best picture of the day.

Great way to start off my spring break.

I could do this everyday.

Rest in peace unkle Marv. you will be missed. We love you.

"I will see you when I see you."

Catch me?

My title "catch me if you can" still didn't suit me.
I wanted to change it, but then i realized something.
My title matches me.

The one thing i seem to be good at is running away.
I have run away from so many things
relationships
times when things seemed to be great.
times when things seemed to be hard.
Even simple things like plans with someone.
i still don't fully understand
its a first instinct


 i want to stop
i have run away from so many things.
its something i've done for so long and it just hurts later
advice to the wise, don't run.
face life how it is

Catch me.
If you can..

so called "high school"

high school is the devil.
How can i bare another year?
 cant stand the clicks,gossip,some people..
I mean its still way better than junior high
im just really ready for a new start.
im ready for college.
do i need another year of this
I already stay clear of the place.
If there’s a chance to leave i take it.
Self esteem: gone down since "high school"
friends changed.
heartbreaks, fights.
Its led me to this
ESCAPE !

I want to go off somewhere warm,
somewhere away from Pleasant Grove
New friends, new atmosphere, new adventures,
new memories, new boys, new start

Lets get real i do have to bare another year
but its fun to fantasize.

truth

My heart really goes out to these people, i cant imagine what their going through. Cities destroyed. Families and Friends missing. This is a nightmare that came true. Sometimes we catch ourselves in a bubble and not knowing whats going on in the world around us. Keep them in your prayers.
Be thankful for what you have now.

am I blog worthy?

things I particularly came across blog stalking,

first off  photography, heaven forbid can I take a picture before shaking the camera.

English class proved to me writing, not my talent. Yes still writing a blog.

Cooking/baking any sort of thing with food, sure good at eating, but the other part “preparing” the food, not my cup of tea. Some day.

Crafting, I enjoy very much, finding the time to do it is the problem.

 Sarcasm. love reading it. what would we do without it?

sewing, two words: danger zone. needles.

Creativity. Comes and goes, mostly taken by the chance I think of it.

Random. absolutely love this, it will happen on my blog frequently.

 i am not capable of these skills, therefore blogging perhaps may benefit me.

giving this a chance.

hi im a newby.

unaware of the blog world, my friend introduced me to what we call blog stalking.

as much as i despise reading books, blogs are another story; they seem to keep me satisfied. 

 in a million years I would never have thought i would be at this point writing my own,

somehow i managed. 

 hello welcome to my world.

catch me if you can: this name came about by a movie i have never seen, 

found in zoe's movie cabinet. inspiration? yeah it might change. soon.

as you might have noticed i'm not a fan of capital letters, only in English class. its required.

i will say what i want how i want, i mean that's what blogs are for. am i right?

i'm a blonde in hair and at heart. it definitely has a purpose
i enjoy the car window rolled down the radio blasting
i absolutely love blonde jokes, they get me every time
i have an obsession with hair&food of course
i'm attention deficit, but always manage to find a way to entertain myself
i people watch on a regular basis. creeper? i think yes
i'm late for almost everything
im shy in certain things, most things
&i'm a klutz

that about sums it up
