Reflection

over the past few weeks i have had many new and fun experiences. school is out for the summer and i am just being a bum and working. life is still good in st george. i can't believe i've been on my own for two years already.
quick update:
i am officially 20 now and it's not much different from 19 but oh well!
i moved apartments and i'm still working at jc penney.

i learn something everyday that i apply to my life so i'm just going to list a few life lessons i have learned living on my own!

to start i have learned that rent is a pain in the butt to pay and for some reason i am able to pay it without my dads help. college life is different than high school but people don't change much. i've realized the friends come and go. your closest ones will hurt you if they want. boys are stupid! i've realized that life is not like the movies....there is no music playing in the background as you dance in the street at 2 in the morning. not everyone likes me, in fact some people can't stand me. going to del taco on a tuesday for taco tuesday is wonderful because it can lead to random trips go-karting. being in first place in go-karts is an awesome feeling especially when i started in third! i've realized that you get hurt but you get over it. if it's meant to be it will always find it's way. smiles are very contagious. life is only as hard as we choose to make it. this too shall pass. family can drive you nuts but in the end they're always there for you. i love vegas! bowling used to be better in mesquite until they decided to not let us bowl. i've learned that if you haven't bought your games of bowling before 11 on a weekday then they won't let you bowl. i've realized that LOL actually does apply to me but i never say it because i think it's retarded. i've learned that i'm not perfect and that i need to accept that. eventually my hair will be to a point where i like it, it just takes a few weeks. i love showering! i've realized that having roommates is nice when i want someone to talk to but frustrating when i want to be alone. i've learned that it's not always sunny in st george and when it rains it only last for about 3 minutes. i've learned that kicking a volleyball doesn't work half the time but when it does everyone is in amazement until they find out that you can't hit it with your hands. if i could be anything in life, it would be a profesional cheese taster. i've learned that music can make any situation a little easier to deal with. i've realized that i suck at keeping my journal, updating my blog, and writing to the missionaries that i once wrote to. i've learned that everything that you thought would be there forever can be taken away from you with the blacking out of a screen which also taught me never let hp take your computer without having everything saved because they will erase it and then take pictures of themselves and leave it on the computer! i've realized that life is complex but only to me, nobody else thinks my life is complicated. i've realized that i am a spoiled little girl! eventually i do want to get married. i've learned that it's true what they say about pringles: "once you pop the fun don't stop" and same with lays: "bet you can't eat just one" i never can stop eating chips. gaining weight isn't a bad thing. texting bugs. i've learned that i am whiney and i feel bad for people that have to listen to me. everyone just needs a friend with a set of ears, they don't have to be listening, it just feels better talking to someone. i've realized that i can't keep track of my keys to save my life. i keep finding them not only in the car but in the ignition of the car. i've learned that my dad is an amzing man and he just wants me to be happy. i've realized that being 20 isn't really anything exciting. just means that guys want to date people a little younger. i've learned that not everyone that i want wants me back, sucks but it's life. it does go on! i've learned that a broken heart is not as bad as they say....it's worse, but you move on. i've learned that my motto in life best fit the one that says "live and learn and then get loves." if i'm not sleeping then i'm most likely looking for something that i had just ten minutes before. i've learned that ice cream can make me smile no matter what mood i'm in. candy makes you fat. i've finally realized that i am of great worth! i've got a family that loves me and that i love. someone always has it worse than you. i've learned babies are cute, toddlers annoy, and anyone after that is my friend. i've learned the lake isn't fun unless you have toys! swimmers itch sucks. and finally i've realized and learned that it doesn't matter who likes me as long as i like myself!
