One year older and Wiser too!

Life is a funny thing, and everyday I find reasons and things that prove this fact. Often enough I find joy and reasons to smile, and then those days come when you find that life really has a sense of humor but you don't get it haha... and it feels like it's slapping you in the face. Yeah....life is good :) this past year I have come to realize that there is more to life and I am just beginning to brush the surface of what that means....."there's more to life"....such a phrase as this is enough to make me wonder if there's more to life then am I doing what I'm suppose to so that I can get there and qualify for whatever more is out there. College does funny things to you and since you are paying through the teeth to get there you might as well get out of it what you can and have a little fun while you attempt :) I don't think I have had more fun and been happier in my life, and also been through the hardest and most trying ordeals that I have ever faced, and I don't believe that they will ever stop, but I learned that you take the good with the bad and lean on the ones that love you when you can't support yourself. That's what love really is. Being independent was great, but still allowing people into my life to be there for me and to help me provided for some of my most cherished memories and life long friends I will ever make. But in a nutshell, I fell in love, made lasting friendships, danced my heart out, cooked, cleaned, froze, sang, picnics in the park, nerf gun wars, baking cookies everyday it seemed, the endless homework, projects, the testing center, working out, buying my own groceries, working, car problems, breakups, disappointments, church, doing nails, girls nights, forts made from the couches, swimming, trips to the tetons, jackson hole, movie nights, traveling to utah, in a nutshell this past year at college was where I found "there's more to life", and this is just the beginning............P.S. I made it through my first year without getting married ;)
