You may say i'm a dreamer but i'm not the only one.

As I sit here and think about my future, I cannot hardly believe that I will be a college graduate in December. I feel like it was just yesterday I was moving into the dorms with Sarah, eating junk food, late nights at the Whitehouse, making so many new friends, new memories..and 4 years, gone by..like poof! Here I am, almost 23 years old. You don't realize how fast college goes by, but ohmygoodness, it's fast.


I can't say that I would take anything back, but I would give anything to go back to those years and do all of it all over again. Through all of the tears, heartbreaks, gossip, rush, fights, make-ups, break ups, gained weight, lost weight, trying to meet new people, studying my butt off and still failing, I grew into myself, & I realized who I am. I have finally figured out who my real friends are and how to be a good friend. After all of the relationships i've experienced, & the rude, terribly rude, "baptist" families that I wasn't good enough for..I found myself, and a bonus: I found my man. About a year and a half ago, I found the most amazing, humble, hilarious, Godly, handsome guy, who stands up for me, whose family loves me & I love, & who would never betray me, forsake me, or intentionally hurt me.. & there is not a better feeling in the world than knowing that.

Everyday, this life takes new turns that we may not expect. They may be little or not exactly noticeable road signs, but every single day, God is directing you towards the amazing person you are suppose to be, who you are suppose to be with, & His purpose for you. It is so refreshing to finally realize that, to feel the comfort of resting in His arms and knowing He will guide the way.



So here's a toast. To the good days, the best of friends. The ones that
you just can't live without. The people that have taught you how to party.
How to live. How to have a good time just sitting around. Here are to the
that no matter how bad things seem, are going to be there for you.
To lean back on and catch you if you fall.

We should all start to live before we get too
old. Fear is stupid, so are regrets.
– Marilyn Monroe



Draw the line. Live above it.



Life's too short to be sitting around miserable. People are going to talk, whether you do bad or good.




The greatest relationships are the ones you never expected to be in.
The ones that swept you off your feet
and challenged every view you've ever had.






"I want to do so many things and maybe someday a lot of it will be impossible, but right now I don't see the impossible." -Leighton Meester


"No matter what happens in life, be good to people. Being
good to people is a wonderful legacy to leave behind."
— Taylor Swift
I am made of hundred percent flaws, and I can promise there isn't one ounce of perfection in me.
But good intentions hold me together, and I hope that counts for something.





Sometimes it takes a really good fall to figure out where you stand.



"Most of the time it’s a lot easier to say you don’t care than to explain why you do."- Sex and the City

Confidence is a stain they can't wipe off.

To my close friends/boyfriend who are graduating..CONGRATULATIONS! I am proud of each and every one of you. You have made my college experience amazing, & I love you all so much! For some of you, I'm sure we'll drift apart, and for others, we'll remain close forever, but just know that each of you have helped me grow into the person I am today, and I will miss you dearly! Good luck with everything, and we will be returning for Dia 2012.











Keep talking down girl, sounds like you're jealous.












Carry yourself like a queen, and you will attract a king.
The minute I heard my first love story I started looking for you,
not knowing how blind that was.
Lovers don't finally meet somewhere.
They're in each other all along




If you're going to be two faced, at least make one of them pretty. -Marilyn Monroe






Maybe our mistakes are what make our fate.
When we first met, I had no idea you would be so important to me.
Because that's what people do.
They leap, and hope to God they can fly,
because otherwise you just drop like a rock,
wondering the whole way down, why in the hell did I jump?
But here I am, falling,
& the only one that makes me feel like I can fly, is you.


My nightmares are usually about losing you. I'm okay once I realize you're here.
-Peeta Mellark



You talk alot of crap for someone who never says anything.

If you're handed it, you can handle it.

Our days would be happier if we gave everybody

a piece of our heart instead of our mind.

The minute you settle for less than you deserve,

you get even less than what you settled for.

Don't be afraid to believe that you can have

what you want and have what you deserve.

"I think the best part is reaching that point of your relationship where everyday feels the same and that you don’t have to worry about anything changing.
You’ll still wake up to the same sleepy face and still be encapsulated by the warmth of the same awkward limbs, and still be able to share the same silly comments and thoughts and faces that only you two understand.
I know it sounds repetitive and boring and is just a pattern that some can’t break, but I think it’s the most comforting in the world because some people can never reach that point and I think it means a lot when you do. It’s letting someone see and be with you in a way that no one else could.
That’s what makes it so special."
