Life's Little Lessons

This is a fairytale that should gave been read to us when we were little:
Once upon a time in a land far away,
A beautiful, independent, self-assured princess happened upon a frog as she sat contemplating ecological issues on the shores of an unpolluted pond in a verdant meadow near her castle.
The frog hopped into the princess' lap and said: "Elegant Lady, I was once a handsome prince, until an evil witch cast a spell upon me. One kiss from you, however, and I well turn back into the dapper, young prince I am and then, my sweet, we can marry and set up housekeeping in your castle with my mother, where you can prepare my meals, clean my clothes, bear my children, and forever feel grateful and happy doing so."
That night, as the princess dined sumptuously on a lightly sauteed frog legs seasoned in a white wine and onion cream sauce, she chuckled and thought to herself: "I don't frickin' think so."

So remember a guy may seem great on the outside but ends up being the frog. I have met guys like this so always proceed with caution, I know I am. I'm also told that when you meet the right guy everything in your past is well worth it.

New Beginnings

I have officially been accepted to Kansas State University!! Now all I have to do is get acccepted into the College of Eduaction. That shouldn't be to difficult but I do still have to take a test. I'm ready to get out of this town. I'm not saying that I'm going to leave and never come back, I'm just saying that I need a change of senery and I may eventually find myself back here some day. I love Winfield and I will miss the town but I HAVE TO GET OUT!!! LOL!!! I love the people here and I always will. I'm just excited to know where I'm going in my life.

If Everyone was so Lucky.

In the past few months, my life has gone through some changes. I got promoted at work, ended a year long relationship, and found some amazing friends. I'm very thankful for one in peticular, Melissa Barr. We both work together at Quail Ridge Golf Course and we both were having similar relationship problems at the same time, but lets not forget that our personalities are compatible enough to allow us the be the BEST OF FRIENDS. I don't know what I would do without this girl. We would both be bored if we didn't have each other to entertain the other. We also hang out with the "Boys". What would we do without them? Jared, Kenneth, and Ryan (enought said). I'm just so lucky to have such wonderful friends.

Good-Bye 18.

I want to thank everyone for the birthday wishes that I have gotten through out the day. I am thankful for my family everyone of them. I love each and everyone of you. Let's not forget.....TWO MORE YEARS TILL I'M 21!!!!

Kansas City Trip

This weekend was so exciting. I got to see my brother and sister-in-law and don't forget my adorable niece Celine. She is such a cutie. I'm just saddened that the next time that I get to see her is at Thanksgiving.

Here are a cute pictures of her:

I hope that you enjoyed these pictures and videos as much as enjoyed seeing her.

New found FREEDOM

Well life is going swell. Since the break-up I have been so much happier. I have 4 really close friends right now and I would never have these friends if I was in a relationship. I may also be moving out of my parent's house. My best friend Melissa is wanting to move to Winfield, she currently lives in Ark City, since she spends most of her time here. We are looking at properties. I just hope that everything works out well. I will have to move out in a year anyway only 3hours from home. This move will hopefully get me ready to live on my own a little further from M&D.

Separation and Confusion

It happened. Jared and I have broken up. I think everything will be ok. We have decided to remain friends. I just need sometime to think and to be by myself. I just need sometime to be single. Who knows, maybe there may be a future for us other than friendship, I'm not sure. Well I must get to bed.
