One Tuesday Morning


So I read this book, One Tuesday Morning, it was amazing. I cried my eyes out by the end of it..I never really understood how big the 9/11 attacks were, and how many people died. It really made me proud to live in America, and really appreciate the fire fighters. The only thing that could have made it better is if I didnt have to do a Book Report on it.


Also, Ive been really involved in this whole Breast Cancer Awarness Month thing. Its been fun. Me and my friend Macie made bracelets, and those alone have raised 300$ in three days..so that is cool. The pic is of our human chain of people from SHS to KaHS!!

But other than that life is normal. School..leadership..xc....HW...naps....and districts tomorrow!!
Hopefully I will be able to tell you how great that went later! =]

Better

I like this song...when I was like 12 I hated it because I thought it meant we were supposed to dance instead of working or something, I dont know. But now that Ive actually figured it out (Im really not blond, i swear) I really like it.


I hope you never lose your sense of wonder
You get your fill to eat
But always keep that hunger
May you never take one single breath for granted
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed
I hope you still feel small
When you stand by the ocean
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance

I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Living might mean taking chances
But they're worth taking
Lovin' might be a mistake
But it's worth making
Don't let some hell bent heart
Leave you bitter
When you come close to selling out
Reconsider
Give the heavens above
More than just a passing glance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
(Time is a real and constant motion always)
I hope you dance
(Rolling us along)
I hope you dance
(Tell me who)
I hope you dance
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
(Where those years have gone)

I hope you still feel small
When you stand by the ocean
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance

Just....Rambling


I have been having so much fun lately, and getting a lot done...but I still feel like there is something missing. I dont know what really, maybe I just had too much fun during the summer, or maybe its the fact that I miss Ken more than ever. Honestly, it has been 8 months since I have talked to him...for real. It really makes me feel bad for anyone who has ever had someone really close to them die, like a brother, or husband or something, becuase I honestly dont know how they do it! 2 years is such a long time..a lifetime would kill me! Thank goodness for emails though..although I use a lot of snail mail with him. Anyways...running has been going good..practices are fun. I kinda miss my weekends, but General Conference is this Sunday, And Im super excited, for the first time in my life. Anywhoo...Just thought I would get that out. goodnight.
