rumor has it

Time to muster up a bit of courage and a inch of faith. 

Never ready to hear the truth. 

Wishing. Waiting. Hoping. 

Isn't it time for goodbye? 

someday sweetie. 

i'll make it without you

staring at the mess i made

 

"Ice Cream Agony"

never planned on you changing your mind

Hope is found in complications. 

As humans we overcomplicate things because we can't take "no" or "never" for an answer. 

If it doesn't exist anymore, there is no more pretending. 

We want it to be complicated because the thought of it being gone forever breaks our heart. 

And no one wants to be broken. 

stuck inside a world you hate

Why does everyone on this planet have to suck? 

(live unbruised, we are friends)

living a teenage dream

Clear skies to California were not looking so great.

My trip was going to get rescheduled to who knows when. 

Then....

I tried out for A Capella, got permission to go on tour and there I will be, with tons of fun people, in California. Disneyland, a play, other fun adventures.

Hip-hip-hooray!

(or should I say Zip-a-dee-do-dah?!)

safety for the soul

Are my choices leading me toward lasting happiness? 

"Wherefore, men are free according to the flesh; and all things given them which are expedient unto man. And they are free to choose liberty and eternal life through the great Mediator of all men or to choose captivity and death, according to the captivity and power of the devil; for he seeketh that all men might be miserable like unto himself."

 2 Nephi 2:27

give faith the fighting chance

"Day by day, minute by minute, second by second we went from where we were to where we are now. The lives of all of us, of course, go through similar alterations and changes. . . Time never stands still; it must steadily march on, and with the marching come the changes." 

-President Thomas S. Monson

true as it can be

Isabella Knell.

She keeps me sane.

throw some glitter, make it rain

When she runs in the hall screaming to you and  you get it because you both stayed up all night doing homework. Then you scare just about every single person you were with because you're both crazy. So you go to lunch, take a break, and prepare for the next night of thrilling adventures of doing homework.

I love Macally. 

dang it's ridiculous, you got me so delirious

He's stuck by my side through everything. We've laughed all night. We have yelled and screamed at each other. He is my best friend. He understands me so well and I can tell him everything. And it just so happens to be his birthday.

Happy Birthday Christian! Thanks for being the best friend ever. It's been a great 5 years together.

For some reason this is the picture I have. Super.

let's set the world on fire

I just decided that I want to do a little tribute the next week or so to people who have changed my life. Each day, I will pick a few people who have influenced my life in one way or another. Technically I did Sarah yesterday. Sar-bear is honestly such a great person. I love her dearly.

Today's shout out goes to Carl-Joe and Katie Huish. 

"A bomb is in the house! What will you do?!"

CJ is my "older brother". He works at the MTC. He is the most solid guy I know. CJ is probably one of my bestest friends in all of ever. He's always there for me, he's got my back and I love him dearly. We watch movies and tv shows together late at night, we talk about life... okay, and occasionally he gives me some dating advice. :) He's too good to be true.

Katie, well Katie is amazing. She's a great listener and I love being with her. She makes fun of me, and it bugs me most of the time, but as we've grown up, I'm glad she's around. She convinces me every time I am with her that I should go into debt and go to BYU over going to UVU for free. Dang her. :)

Oh and I want them to get married. Super bad. :) 

only me when i'm with you

She's a keeper.

i've been afraid of changing

And suddenly, the soul is yelling to the body, but it won't listen. The soul longs to be free from the person it's pretending to be.

 And in that instance, 

the person staring back at you in the mirror

is a stranger.

scrub away all these thoughts

So quick to forgive, but I always remember. 

(dang my memory) 

you make my dreams come true

Winter Break. Mayson and Sarah Style.
