Worth writing down.

Suffering through high school was definitely worth it to get to college. Lots of people told me college was their favorite time of life when I was getting ready to move, but I heard that about high school too so I wasn't completely convinced.
I'm convinced.
Guys I'm so happy and I'm just loving life. I've realized so much about myself and what I want to accomplish in my life since I moved it's crazy. Here are a few examples worth writing down:
-I want to be a Mom. I'm not one of those girls who has dreamed about that her whole life and is baby hungry, but I know that I want to be a Mom. A really really good one who is crafty like nienie. Just not for a few years.
-I want to live outside of Utah. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love Utah, northern and southern. I'm a Utah girl through and through. Up until this point in my life, I never ever wanted to leave. However, I realized there is a lot more to this world than Utah and I want to experience it for myself even if it terrifies me.
-I'm going to be a news anchor. Hopefully I'll replace Shauna Lake someday.
-I love learning. Okay, I already knew that, but this whole higher education thing really reinforced it for me. I never want to stop learning and I love the fact that I can learn my whole life and never run out of new things to discover.
-I want to start recording things. Like Sara's video in LSH.
-One week in Environmental Humanities really changed my perspective on the environment. I'm not an environmentalist by any means but it really opened my eyes. For some reason we try to separate ourselves from nature, but we,as humans, are part of nature. Here's something interesting to think about.. Solitude doesn't consist of how much space is between a man and his neighbors. No exertion of legs can bring two minds nearer to each other. It really got me thinking anyway.

Here are a few pictures.




Let us be as simple and well as nature.
