so i just finished my freshman year of college journal. i love to go back through it and read about different times in my life. after reading it, i can't help but look back and laugh and just think: "i am so me." which might be dumb to say because you're probably thinking: DUH, you iddy.
it's crazy to me that just one year ago, i had been at college for a month. and after reading allison's tumblr post about her boy life right now (she's just starting her freshman year), i can't help but laugh and think of how similar our lives are. it's funny to me now, but in the moment i was STRESSED! i say this now only because i have had close to zero interactions with any boy that i care about, but dang is it dumb to stress out about boys. life is so much easier when i can just relax and not have to worry about anything. summertime is prime. think about it, you get your tan on, spend countless hours in water: whether it be a swimming pool, a lake, or the ocean, the sun shines almost everyday. and who doesn't love a good summer storm every once in a while? i just love how relaxed and kind of mindless everything is.
i know i have continually kept thinking about how ready i am to go back to school and be back in provo with my friends, and call me cheesy, but i was listening to some good old tayswift last night and the song "never grow up" came on and that was it for me. i thought about how fast my time at home has gone by and how easy everything used to be. i didn't have to worry about paying rent, or paying for gas, or budgeting. i love my parents and my siblings so much! who would ever want to leave home! haha. i'm sure i'll change my mind about all of this once i get up to utah, but for now those are my thoughts.
i am more than excited for sophomore year and can't wait to see what will happen.
here are just a few things that i have learned after reading through my freshman year journal:
1. Preston Kutney is too indie to date me.
2. I need to learn how to budget. Or i will sink into a black hole called debt.
3. I need a new boy type. As great as bad boys are, they are not good for the soul.
4. Summer is the best time of year.
5. Choose my friends wisely. They effect me.
6. It's way okay if I don't get married anytime soon. My husband will come.
7. Always be myself.
8. Be honest and open with people. But choose what I say very carefully.
9. Be a lady. No one likes trashy.
10. Don't let boys run my life or my emotions.
11. Always take time to think.
12. Be brave!
13. Laugh and breathe. Everything will be okay.
and last but not least,

14. Marry someone that will allow me to have children that look like this:
she's a babe.
she's a natural.
she already poses for cameras.
model status.
Excuse me for being just a tad bit obsessed with my niece.
