We speed through life. Why? To make it to the next “thing”? The next promotion? The next school dance? The next date? Why can’t we live in the moment?
We spend our life thinking of the future. How our actions today will affect our life in the future. What will happen if I choose this? When will he realize he shouldn’t have walked away? When will I finally make it ‘big’?
Why do we do this to ourselves? Why do we constantly badger ourselves, telling ourselves that THIS moment isn’t important, and that THIS moment isn’t the right moment.
Why not? Why isn’t THIS moment the right moment? Readers (the one or two of you that might have happened upon reading this), I challenge you. I challenge to two things:
1. I challenge you to take a chance. Don’t think about what will happen if you do it. Don’t think about what people will think of you when you do it. Wear something crazy. Ask someone out. Tell your loved one just how much you love them, how much they mean to you. Make them feel special. Make THIS moment the right moment for them.
2. I also challenge you to stop. Just stop. Take a breath. Look around you. Look at all the people rushing through their lives. Then I challenge you to take a moment, stop thinking about the future. And live. Don’t work. Don’t study. Don’t worry. Live your life.
Have a nice life!

My Dream For This Blog
My dream would be for this blog to have readers that know me. People who have never seen me, and never talked to me, but truly know me.
But at that moment, no one reads this blog, so that can't really happen. I haven't told anyone about my blog because i honestly don't want them seeing it. Not because I'm going to be saying awful things about them (which I won't), but because I need a place where I can express my feelings. A place that i can write anything that I want to. I need to be abel to spread my guts out on paper so that someone (you, yes you!) can read them.
But to be truthful, I will tell some of my friends and then they will read this (Hello!!). And then they will become my only readers. My only way to create my own world will be ruined by the people that love me the most (no offense!).
Love you guys! Thanks for reading!

It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Spring!
I woke up today and I looked out the window. Did I see the piles of snow that have been here since November? No. Did I see the puddles of slush that make it hard to walk to the garage? No. I didn't, because today it looked like Spring!
I know that in fact it is not officially Spring by anyone's calendar but I believe it is Spring. Why?
Because:
-The grass is green (even though it might have snow on it, there is green grass)
- I can hear the birds chirping
- It SMELLS like Spring
- I can go outside without a winter coat, or any coat for that matter
To me it is spring and I don't care what anyone else says. To me it is spring which means that the school year will be ending and then it will be summer. To me it is spring so that I can finally go outside and take pictures of this lovely world that is around us. I cannot wait for the rest of the world to believe that it is spring so that we can celebrate it together.
Happy Pi(e) Day!!

Life is Good
So I was thinking about what to write for my first blog, and i was trying to find something that I would be able to vent about... but there really isn't anything. At the moment (this is sure to change) my life is quite good!
-I have amazing friends that I can always depend on.
-I have a family that sticks together no matter what.
-I spend my day laughing and smiling.
-I'm getting an amazing educations (even if my chemistry teacher would like to kill me).
So no matter what I say in this blog from now on, just to set the record straight, my life is really good! It's just like my favorite saying "There are no bad days, some are just better than others".
So on a less positive note, this is what I'm going to try to change in order to make my life even better:
1. Finally get up the courage to ask the guy I like out (wish me luck!!!)
2. Stop procrastinating (though i might not get around to this one)
3. Make it through this school year with relatively good grades
4. Get a good summer job
5. Eat healthy and exercise! I feel so much happier when I do
6. Pursue a career that I actually enjoy no matter what anyone else says about it!!
Wish me luck on my very late New Years resolution!!

Hello There!
Hello bloggers and readers of blogs!
This is my first time creating and/or blogging though I have thought about it for a while. I love the idea that I can sit at home and type something on my Mac, and someone who doesn't even know me will read it! I'm sorry if I seem like I don't know what I'm doing (because I don't) but I will hopefully get the hang of this!
I will be posting:
-Pictures
-Poems
-Songs
-And just random thought that have popped into my head
Be prepared for randomness through and through! And also lots of Doctor Who references!
I'll be writing an actual blog quite soon!
