Sunshine, lollipops, and rainbows.

Summer of 2012 has been treating me quite well. It's going a lot quicker than I would have hoped... But I guess things have to end one way or another. I'm ashamed at my lack of posting on this blog. I will try to do my best to keep up.

On the 7th of June me and two of my best friends went to Las Vegas to see the one and only One Direction. I didn't quite know what to expect! Vegas is massive. It was a really fun experience for the three of us and my parents! We had such a wonderful time. On the night of the 8th I could not sleep for the life of me. It was like Christmas all over again. I was so excited to see my boys at Planet Hollywood that next night at 7:00pm. I couldn't contain my excitement. In the afternoon Courtney Hill told me she got to Vegas and was outside lined up by a bunch of buses. We had to go. We just had to. If there were any of the slightest chances to catch an eye of either Harry, Liam, Louis, Niall, and Zayn I would do just about anything. When we got there I got to see Indy Severe (check out her blog. She is adorable!) Courtney, and her two sisters Lexi and Heather. It was a nice greeting! I guess just before me, Savannah, and Kailin got there THEY GOT TO SEE ZAYN. I saw pictures of him at the top of the stairs. I about died. We stayed there for a couple of hours without any luck. Finally it was about 6:30 when we decided to go in! The arena was really small so even our "bad seats" weren't even bad at all. The first opening act was a woman I have never seen before and hope to never see again. Her name was Camryn and in the words of Courtney was a "Hannah Montana wannabe". Spot on. She was terrible. That's all I want to explain about her. The second opening act was a man named Olly Murs. I instantly fell in love with him. He was so so incredible. Even though I didn't know his songs I was still dancing along. I was said when he got off stage but that just meant One Direction were coming on next. When the moment finally happened (it seemed like ages) I will admit, I started bawling. Couldn't stop. I looked over to Kailin on my right and tears were streaming down her face. It was actually a bit embarressing, I never would have thought that I would cry?! But I could not contain myself. That was the happiest I've ever felt. The concert went on to be a success. Loved ever second of it. When it was time for them to leave I was so upset. But so so grateful that I even got to have the opportunity to go to one of their concerts, be in their presence, and be in the same room as them, IN VEGAS. I have my wonderful daddy to thank for that one.

Speaking of my father, he recently got diagnosed with Thyroid Cancer and goes into surgery this friday. If you could please keep him in your prayers I will be so grateful. I know he'll be just fine. He has wonderful doctors and got a blessing today by my uncle Eric. My testimony for Priestood Prayers is so so strong. I don't know what I'd do without them. Even though it was for my dad, it gave me so much peace and knowlege that he will be alright. Thank you Eric.

Pictures will be up tomorrow of my trip. I love you!

April 19

I'm fed up with April. I don't like school .

Quote of the day : So far from where I once was, but not yet what I am to be.
Song of the day : Mistletoe, Justin Bieber.
Yes I said it. Christmas music (preferably by Justin) is the only thing that keeps me sane.

Monday

It already has been a long week... And it's only Monday. 33 more school days left until summer. I get so excited just thinking about it! But that's actually a really long time if you think about it. Not sure if I'm going to make it.

Quote of the day: "The saddest kind of sad is the sad that tries not to be sad. You know, when Sad tries to bite its lip and not cry and smile and go, 'No, I'm happy for you.'? That's when it's really sad." - John Mayer
Song of the day: More than this - One Direction

But as for me and my house, we will serve the lord.

Since I entered junior high my testimony has never been stronger. I always thought that I would have a tough time keeping faith in the lord especially at my school where there's bad influences everywhere you step. One particular time I was in Spanish class and this one girl was talking to some of my friends who were LDS about her bible and why we were wrong. She was so persistent about telling us that our church was corrupt and telling us things I've never heard about the church that were obviously not true things. And then she got to this question " What builds your faith?" and she went on to answer "because what builds mine is I have to know things. I can't keep going if I don't absolutely know everything." all I said was but having faith is not a perfect knowledge of things. It's believing in something not seen. But what truly builds my faith is times like those when people try to test it. I don't know why but I know my church is true when people try to tell me otherwise. I feel so good that I know the truth. But then you get that horrible feeling because they do not. And it's upsetting that you are trying everything to tell them but they never listen. I think that's how God feels sometimes. He tries to tell us repetitively that he's here. But sometimes we just don't listen. I'm planning on giving that girl a Book of Mormon. Hopefully and prayfully she'll give it a shot.


Quote of the day: Everything is beautiful. But some people just can't see it.
Song of the day : Somebody I used to know, by - walk off the earth. (please go and look them up on YouTube! They are so so talented.)

It should be a good day today.

Old feelings. New adventures.

Motivating myself to blog more often. How an I doing this? Well, precisely by picking a song of the day and my quote of the day and also by deciding how I'm feeling about this day. I had this nice idea and it will help me get back on track. So my song of the day is: Forever and Always (piano version recommended) By the one and only: Taylor Swift
Quote: "Live life for the moment, because everything else is uncertain." -Louis Tomlinson
Today is a boring and tired day.

'cause when you're 15 and someone tells you they love you, you gotta believe them.

I haven't been posting and I'm ashamed of myself. I'm so sorry. 3rd term changed me. I had not an ounce of a social life let alone Internet life. But yes, I am now 15. Yes, in also in love. With a little band called One Direction. I got tickets to go see them down in Las Vegas on June 9th with my two best friends Savannah Stika and Kailin Cudney. I couldn't be more excited! Best birthday present by far. But I also need to earn a hunch of money, so if anyone needs a babysitter or something for me to do, I'm your girl.(; spring break has been good to me. Sleeping all day long and partying all night. It's been wonderful. Tomorrow my dad is coming home early to take me to take the permit test. I'm a bit nervous, but I think I'll do alright! (cross your fingers I won't fail...) 15 is a horrible age. You aren't really 'mature' but you aren't a 'kid'. There's so many places I want to be and I can't take myself. I wish I could skip the age all together. Oh well. One more year.

I'm sorry.

I haven't been posting. I don't think I have all this year. I am so sorry. I slack. I used to e very good at this! I just haven't had the time or the inspiration. But I have one today. It's call one direction. And these pictures will barley explain my love for them. If you haven't already go listen to their songs, watch their music videos, and love them. That's all I ask.
