"Some people wound to hurt each other. God wounds to heal"

A friend of mine tweeted that... (i know how lame, twitter...)
I thought that was an interesting quote. I think I like it.
If nothing else, it made the friend feel better when he heard it.

200

Woohoo! This is my 200th post! Crazy talk. Well... this will just be a random post.

So my friends and I decided to do an underwater photoshoot... is that weird?
Well this is how it turned out!
It was absolutely exhausting, not to mention how strange it felt to be swimming in long dresses...
But it was really just fun!
So here ya go, enjoy!

(this is Delaney)


(This is me and Amy)



(the bubbles were amazing.)


(we decided to give the book a try! Delaney kept floating up in these)


Sure, it may have been silly, but it'll be cool to look back on.


It has been an absolutely crazy month. With wrapping up senior year with a million things, graduation prep, graduating (ah! i'm graduated now!), and then I leave Tuesday morning and I'll be gone for about 3 weeks.
I'm going to the lake, then Thursday and Friday is orientation (aaaah!), then I leave the next week for a roadtrip to Charleston!
And then I have a weekend to recover, then head straight on to Singing School!
Ah. crazy.
So I have to pack and prepare for all of that tomorrow..... kill me.
I know it will be fun, but it's just crazy.


Did I mention I found out who my roommate/suitemates are?
Yeah, that's pretty exciting!!
And I found out when I move in, which is earlier than I like, but obviously that'll have to be okay.


Have I ever mentioned how I wish I was a brilliant writer?
Just to put my thoughts down in a way that becomes beautiful poetry.. to pour out your soul, and one person may see what you really meant, and another may just see a beautiful set of words. Some people... Some people just have a way with words.
You know? they just portray their emotions through those words, and it gets better.
It's such a gift.


But anyways. I really hope y'all's summer is going well!
It's going to be different, but I feel it's going to be a good summer.

At last...

I didn't think it would come so soon... but here it is...
My last day of high school (Lord willing, I don't have to take any of my exams) is tomorrow.
Some people aren't going tomorrow, because well, they just don't have to.
I guess I technically don't have to either, but I can't imagine not coming on my last day.
It's the last time I will ever be in high school again.
School itself will never be the same.
It's so bittersweet.
Bitter, because this means I have to move on with my life, grow up a little more, take more responsibility, move away from home, and also part ways from the people I've grown up with.
Sweet, because no more high school, no more ridiculous rules, and it's opening a new "chapter"
I still don't feel old enough to be graduating, much less a high school student.
Anyways, I'll stop before I go overboard with the sentimental junk.
But. I can't believe it. Summer is almost here.


p.s. what is up with this COLD weather??

This is a test to see if my friend Natalie really does read my blog as often as she says she does. :D So for now, would you like to see a picture?
okay.

Fun fact, did you know one of my favorite flowers are sunflowers??
And guess what.
When school is finished (which is another bittersweet story, because it's almost over)
I'm going to plant an entire sunflower garden.
It's going to be great.
Have a wonderful day!
busy busy busy!

Can we say... PROM!

So this weekend was PROM!
I went with one of my friends, Peter. He asked me to prom on an orange (i can't find the picture). simple, but cute :)
Actual prom itself is pretty overrated, but the getting ready and pictures and "afterparty" parts are very very fun :)
so. I've come to share some photos with you.

I was going to wear my hair like this, but I thought maybe it was a little much, yeah? ;)

Ha, our friend Kari insisted that Peter and I hug again... and.. it was just.. terribly awkward and funny.

The beautiful girls in the group!!
They were all stunning

Alright now... I don't think we got a single one of these photos to turn out... those three boys to the right (no suprise) were messing it all up (and also the fact the girls didn't know what to do with our hands/arms)... but it turned out to give some very entertaining photos!

One of my best friends, Amy.
Isn't she beautiful?

Inside the limo.. woohoo!

(that's us! in the middle) Walking to the limo...

My wonderful, beautiful parents :)

And.. my date, Peter and I.

It was all very very very enjoyable!!
