| "Growing up has been very hard. I’ve left a path of mistakes and regrets and failed relationships in my wake, and for that reason, I’m determined to live up to the promises I’ve made to the people (and animals) with whom I share my life today. I don’t know of any other way to honor my mistakes than to prove that I have learned my lessons. I will be a wonderful wife, will love and provide for my family, will get past petty disagreements and selfishness with friends… but it’s very sad that the people benefiting from this grown up me aren’t the ones that got me here." | | |

"Mmmmmmmmmm Yeah
You are the world within the world that I exist You are the touch that just won't fade You are the end and beginning of each and every day You are the reason I stay sane
It's hard to see beautiful Oh, it's hard to see beautiful In your own eyes But you make me beautiful For the very first time
Does anybody know what it's like To feel larger than life To look deep in your soul And know you're not alone Does anybody know how it feels To find something that's real And make it your own That's when you know that you found home Home You found home Home
And when the strings inside me Unravel to the ground You are the hand that gathers me up And when I'm laughing so hard That I can hardly breathe How do you know just when enough's enough
Oh, it's hard to feel beautiful Oh, it's hard to feel beautiful in your own skin
But you make me You make me beautiful Over and over again
Does anybody know what it's like To feel larger than life To look deep in your soul And know you're not alone Does anybody know how it feels To find something that's real And make it your own That's when you know that you found home Home You found home Home
Don't let me down 'Cause I've waited all my life To find, yeah
Does anybody know what it's like To feel larger than life To look deep in your soul And know you're not alone Does anybody know how it feels To find something that's real And make it your own That's when you know that you found home Home You found home That's when you know that you found home Home You found home Home "
Happy Valentine's Day, love.

| I'm learning a lot... a lot about a lot of things.
It seems we have unfortunately discovered that our friends are not the people we always thought they were. It's been a pretty rough and emotional month or so. I find it so funny how some people stay the same and some change. It's also unfortunate that people think you must not want to be friends with them once you're married. Funny how that isn't true at all. People who don't return phone calls, don't seem to care when they do, and do completely inappropriate things. It hurts, and it pretty much sucks; but I'm trying to just remember the good stuff and move on. I'm learning a lot about loyalty, a lot about amazing new friends, and still loving the friends that have never left our lives.
I've discovered that although elementary ed is quite possibly the
easiest major ever, they find ways to make it hard. Like making me
redo my portfolio because I met too MANY competencies. Yeah... stupid overachiever. I'm learning that jumping hoops to become certified in something I love is a total headache but will be worth it someday.
I'm also in the process of applying to a masters program in Library Science which I'm pretty excited about, sort of. It's been a little bit of a pain and a lot of writing, but I'm almost done with it. Good thing, since I have to be admitted by February. (Don't worry, I'm actually a little ahead.) I'm learning that even when you don't change schools, you still get bombarded by mail from other colleges wanting you to apply and that applying to anything is expensive and a pain (so is getting certified).
I'm learning that I can't sleep if my apartment doesn't fix the stupid thing on the roof, but that our fave maintenance man came back today so it should finally get fixed. I'm learning that blue kool-aid does a lot for a sore throat. I'm learning that life is smoother if he cooks and I do the dishes, not because I can't cook but because he's better at it and I like to clean. I'm learning that it doesn't all have to be my way all the time. I'm learning that although I hate college, it's kind of weird to think about being done with the majority of it. I'm learning that kids are still the greatest. I'm learning that movie time is the best therapy. I'm learning that my forehead is improved by bangs.
Being married is amazing. I still love it. I love laughing everyday and sometimes even crying, but it's totally worth it. I haven't had to deal with life alone and I'm very thankful. I'm learning that it's about knowing when to talk and when to stay quiet because in the end it isn't all that important.

| I know I haven't written in a long time... I promise to try and get back into it...
"...I get up and battle the day
Things don't always go my way
It might rain but that's okay
I get to come home to you
Sometimes life may get me down
And I get tired of getting kicked around
I feel lost in this maddening crowd
But I get to come home to you
You are my best friend
And you are where my heart is
And I know at the day's end
I get to come home to you
Hanging out in our old sweatshirts
You let me complain about a hard day's work
I don't know what I did to deserve
To get to come home to you
You are my best friend
And you are where my heart is
And I know at the day's end
I get to come home to you
You are my best friend
And you are where my heart is
And I know at the day's end
I get to come home to you
Yes I get to come home to you
Oh I love coming home to you..." | | |
| Heal Over- KT Tunstall
It isn't very difficult to see why
You are the way you are
Doesn't take a genius to realize
That sometimes life is hard
It's gonna take time
But you'll just have to wait
You're gonna be fine
But in the meantime
Come over here, lady
Let me wipe your tears away
Come a little nearer, baby
Cause you'll heal over
Heal over
Heal over someday
And I don't wanna hear you tell yourself
That these feelings are in the past
You know it doesn't mean they're off the shelf
Because pain's built to last
Everybody sails alone
But we can travel side by side
Even if you fail
You know that no one really minds
Come over here, lady
Let me wipe your tears away
Come a little nearer, baby Cause you'll heal over
Heal over
Heal over someday
Don't hold on, but don't let go
I know it's so hard
You've got to try to trust yourself
I know it's so hard, so hard
Come over here, lady
Let me wipe your tears away
Come a little nearer, baby
Cause you'll heal over
Heal over
Heal over someday
Yeah, you're gonna heal over
