I've missed so many days on here that i just wanna catch up with everything!

Being back in school these past couple weeks have shown me how much my outlook on life has changed. I don't get stressed over the little things anymore, I don't go along with people, I don't sit in the corner and think of things to do and feed people ideas. I'm working on changing others through changing me. I've invested more time in my family and with my relationship with God and I couldn't be happier right now. I've been so blessed with my family situations and with the people God has surrounded me with. Hearing other peoples stories and circumstances make me realize how great I have my life and the things I could do with it.

Happy is the man who finds wisdom, and the man who gets understanding, for the gain from it is better than gain from silver, and its profit better than gold, She is more precious than jewels, and nothing you desire can compare with her.

Proverbs 3: 13-20

Up part of the past couple days: Improved on rile. Been having a lot of fun. Talked to people I usually wouldn't.

Down part of the past few days: I miss my friends and my brother and sister.

------>

My mom and I stayed at the peabody this weekend on the way home from texas this weekend. I finally got to see the ducks up close. It was fantastic. I felt like a princess. We ordered room service for dinner and breakfast in bed and had valet parking. It was great. It feels good to be home in the normal routine again. But i've been home for about 5 days now. It's time to travel again. :)

<----- Best friends!

(Lexi and sam)I miss you both so so much. I love you too and I hope you guys are doing well. I pray for you guys constantly for strength and perseverance. I hope they're taking good care of you guys down there and that you're making lots of good, life-long friends. Stay strong and keep up your strength for not only you but for others. You're making an impact on everyone whether you know it or not.

(Gabe and lance) I miss you guys too! So blessed to have you both in my life. I can't wait to see you guys again and hopefully that is before february. Good luck on tour. Get as much sleep as you can and stay strong and put on the best show you can. You're helping change lives more than you know.

I Miss and love you all! Stay strong.

POST NINE.

Since i've been a slacker the past two days and not kept a record of anything i'm going to make one post for tuesday and wednesday.

TUESDAY: Lexi, samuel, and I went to saint louis and visited the city museum. It was flippin' hot but we did a lot of art and I got a lot of photo opportunities. This was taken from the roof of the city museum. It has to be one of my favorites. It was so pretty up there and you could see absolutely everything.

WEDNESDAY: Lexi, trystan, and I cleaned up the house to get ready for the party on saturday. Later that night I went to dinner with rebecca, emily, and emily at los amigos then we went to church and everyone headed to the sports plex. We had a community youth group worship session. It was fun but I was disappointed at the number of people that did not even bother to pay attention and how fast it went. It seemed very rushed. Then emily followell drove me home. It was a lot of fun. Today was the first day of school. I'm looking for many opportunities and the day is almost up but at the end of today i'll update for the whole day!

Day Nine Post EIGHT.

I wasn't able to update saturday or sunday as I was out of town and didn't have internet. Saturday we went to louisville science center and on a dinner boat cruise down the river for my grandparents 50th anniversary. It was fantastic. Sunday we went to 'mega cavern'. It was an old bomb shelter back in the day of pearl harbor and nazis. It was very interesting and entertaining to go through. Then we went to the zoo. The gorillas totally fascinated me. I know, it sounds nerdy. Butttt, they were amazing. If gorillas have more than 90% of human dna then that has got to mean that they know they are being held for show in front of all these humans and they know they're stuck in there. It was just sad to see in their eyes and they looked sad.

MONDAY:

Today me, my mom, and lexi went to clarksville to find school supplies and clothes for lexi and I.

I got a shirt and romper at walmart, jeggings and a shirt at belk, a tank top and cardigan at pac sun, and sandals at old navy. Nice finds for one days work! :)
This picture was taken on the ride back home today. It was really beautiful outside. I wish I had my canon already so I could capture more moments more efficiently. Sunsets are just so gorgeous. You sit there and look at them and think about your day and how it's almost over and you recap everything you accomplished that day. While looking at the sunset today I thought of not only my past but my future. What came into my mind was the old columbia theater downtown. I want to buy it and make it into my showcase studio for young upcoming artists and also a concert venue place for local artists and occasional big artists. And maybe once in awhile show old movies. I don't know, i'd have to check the place out. I'm just praying for direction when I start looking into colleges and debating close or far colleges. I feel a lot is going to change in the next few years. I'm super excited and can't wait to see!
PRO: Hanging out with my mother and sister.

CON: nothing.
LOOKING FORWARD TO: texas.
