likes // dislikes

>> ten likes and dislikes.
not sure if i'm supposed to do ten of each or just 5 and 5. i'll see how many i can think of.

let's start with the dislikes.

1. banana's. i only like them in my cheerios or smoothies, i just don't like the way they taste or smell or the texture..yuck.
2. indie music. i can appreciate it, but i don't like listening to it at all. there are very few songs that i like.
3. gen eds. i just want to take the classes that pertain to my major...not all these other random classes i'll never need.
4. not living in the same town as my family. i go home pretty often, but i wish we just lived in the same town again.
5. artificial strawberry. need i say more? yuck.

my likes.

1. chocolate. just about anything.
2. pizza. it's always a good idea.
3. my boyfrandd. it's pretty important that i like him haha.
4. tropical smoothie. i'm pretty obsessed with them. i could go there every.single.day and it would never get old.
5. acoustic music. i love it, i like the acoustic covers so much more than the actual songs a lot of the time.

i couldn't think of enough dislikes to make 10 of each haha, i guess that's good thing though!

basic

this whole challenge thing starts now, i guess.

a few basic things about myself :

> i've lived in florida my whole life.
> i have 5 older brothers.
> i went to high school in key west sophomore-senior year.
> i grew up catholic, but i'm mormon now - part of the story.
> my number one goal right now is to swim with some dang whale sharks.
> my family means everything to me and i would do anything for any of them.
> the ocean is my drug, i can't go very long without being near/in it.
> i'm pretty much obsessed with disney. 
> i'm also pretty super obsessed with tropical smoothie..their acai berry boost or the pomegranate/cranberry ones are my go to. 

> music is what gets me through the day most of the time. 
> i hate going to school, but i love learning..it's a give a take.
> i don't want to go to school, i just want to be a momma haha. but i know i need some sort of degree, so i'm working on getting that done.
> my major changes like every other week, but i always seem to go back to psych and eng. so i figure that i should stick with something i'm always interested in.
> if i could pick any career right now, i would either be an author/editor, or a counselor for high school aged students who are having a difficult time and/or are going through hard times.
> i'm not a big fan of indie/hipster things...i know, i know..get with the times. i just can't though haha.
> if i had to choose a famous lady to look up to, it would be Jacqueline Kennedy. she was so dang classy, and somehow stayed sane through the many losses in her family. 
          fun fact - i went to chicago and they had a museum type thing with all of her clothes..so classy.

i think that's about it.

normality?

i think it's about time to get back into the normal swing of things..we'll see how it goes. 

these past two months have been the longest months of my life..like ever. but it's okay. i'm working on things and trying to get myself back to a healthy and normal place. 
classes start in a week, and you could say i'm dreading it..a lot. but that's okay, it'll definitely keep me busy! and i'm going to key west not this weekend, but next. and i'm pretty dang excited. i definitely need to go and be on the water and just be a mermaid for a long weekend.

i have no idea what i'm writing about right now..i'm kind of just rambling until i get stuck on a topic..
it isn't really working the way it usually does haha. 
maybe i should just upload some photos..that sounds like a pretty good idea..

chelly left on her mission Aug. 5th..i miss my best friend..like a freakin lot...

 and this kid..he's pretty cool, you could say i like him a little more than a little :)

 bestie for the restie? i think so.

 i miss west coast florida sunsets

 and i miss my nieces.

 bout dang time you move to orlando. 

i love this gospel so much. i am beyond grateful for the truth and knowledge that i have.

i'm trying to live a more grateful and worthy of the spirit life. i lost it for a little bit after my dad died, but i'm trying to get back on track. despite everything that has been going on, i'm trying to find little things to be grateful for everyday. whether it's being thankful for a cloudy day, so it isn't so hot, or just being thankful for having the strength to get through another day. there really is so much to be grateful for, it's just a matter of opening your eyes and seeing them. 
happiness is a choice and i'm trying hard to make that choice everyday. some days it's easy, and some it's really hard. and sometimes i get a little consumed in it all, it's hard not to.

anyways, i guess that's all for today..my creative juices just aren't flowin' too well.
