"Remember"

Tonight. 

I feel better.

I wrote a song.

It's called "Remember."

I don't necessarily think it is the best song I have written, but it has a lot of potential. I have been feeling so frustrated when I sit down to write because nothing is emerging from ideas that I have had. But tonight I felt like I successfully did that. This song is more for me than for others to listen to.  

It's about remembering everything you did with a person and lately the effect that this person has had on you has been less than positive. You are afraid that they have forgotten or are forgetting you. 

I really like the concept of it.

I don't know if I'll play it for anyone because I've realized that my songs can't change minds or make people realize what you want to say to them or want them to feel. Even though that is what a song is for me. 

But overall I'm just glad I wrote.

Maybe comment or tell me if you want me to do a blog post of the lyrics and explain them.

Peace out.

Bye Bye Braces....

Here they are!

Aren't they pretty??

Tomorrow.

Will be the first time in almost 3 1/2 years that I will be without you. 

You have not been consistent. 

I think it is by far time that I part ways with you.

But I really appreciate the ways you have made me better,

and so many other people's lives better too.  

You have caused me so much pain that I really have started to hate you.

I can't lie I'm going to miss the people you have brought,

like the lady at the front desk. 

She is nice.

And I think that I should thank you for helping me,

as hard as it is to admit that.

I bet you are wondering who I am talking about...

Not who but what.

My braces.

:) Did I getcha?

Haha. I get my braces off tomorrow and I couldn't be more excited! :) 

These were the only before pictures I have. Haha. 

They weren't that bad but I had major complications. 

I'll post pictures tomorrow!

Good & Bad News....

I promise most of it is good. 

Shall we start with good or bad?

Get the bad over with?

Okay.

So the bad. Just personal stuff. I'm missing some people in my life right now. One of them being one of my best friends ever. It's left me feeling a little more fragile than usual. I don't know... maybe I'm just sensitive. Oh and our picnik 12 month membership is up so therefore I cannot edit my pictures all cool-ish. 

GOOD NEWS NOW!!!

There is a lot.

1. Tonight I am going to give my blog a much needed make over! YAY! WOOHOO!

2. I have had a great time this summer with my family coming down. We had a reunion. Fun fun.

3. Gabriel is cuter than ever.

Check out the proof below.

4. AND THE BEST NEWS EVER!!!
I GET MY BRACES OFF ON THURSDAY!!!!

Magic!

Haha. Anyway, there is one last thing I want to say....

Devin, Thank you so much for being here for me when ever I have needed you. You are the best person in the world. You have helped me more then you could ever imagine, just by listening to me complain, cry, and everything else. I love you. :)

Life these daysssss.....

Is goooooood.

I like life.

 No, actually I really rather enjoy life fully.

I got my licence this week. WEEEEHAA!

 It's pretty exciting and I'm feeling a little independent.

Anywaysssss, the point of this post is not to annoy you with my excitement. It's to tell you about how I feel about this 4th of July. Hmmm. Usually the 4th isn't something I feel all warm hearted about. I mean, don't get me wrong I really enjoy loud burst of colors shooting up into the air and ruining you ear drums as much as any other person, but..... I recently watched this TV show called surprise homecoming. It's about soilders that have been sent over seas coming home without their loved one's knowing.

Wow.

I kid you not there was not 10 minutes of that show that I did not have tears in my eyes.

I guess what I am trying to say is that I am so thankful that I can live safe. I am so blessed and I have an absolutely amazing life and so many opprotunities.
