7 days


A week from today we will be on our way to the beach! I cant believe how fast this week flew by! I am so excited but i have so much to do till then. On top of working, i have 2 tests, my sisters 18th birthday, going to the gym, packing, pain party (DONT ASK.. hahaha Holly), and multiple shopping trips for beach stuff! Its a lot but it will be fun. Minus the test part. LOL. I have developed a cold yesterday but with some heavy duty meds i have managed to control it and i am almost over it. Thank goodness! Heres my weekend so far!
Yesterday i got up and drove to Knoxville! Im here visiting DW. I finally got to meet Jacob! LOL. He is a kool kat! We three went to eat at this awesome restaurant and took a spring break shopping trip to Walmart. Afterward DW and I attempted to watch LOST so he could get caught up but the internet was messed up. We watched The Office instead! haha. I love that show! For dinner we watched ZombieLand and ate pizza with all his residents. It was fun. We were all gonna go to his friend Cody's house to chill out but ended up not going. DW took me on a date instead =). He took me to the cutest frozen yogurt place! It was nom nom-tastical! Afterward we saw Shutter Island. It was a great movie! It totally throws you for a loop in the end that you wont see coming! I def. recommend going to see it.
At the moment i am laying around thinking back to the FHU dorm days. Oh how i do not miss those! The people yes. The dorm no. haha. Anyways, not a lot going on till tonight. I am gonna "study" (attempt to anyways) till DW gets done with his work stuff then we are going to some dinner thing and the melting pot for dessert. Good weekend i would like to think! =)

dats whats up


welp only 10 more days till sb010 (as Dw would say)! I am so excited i can hardly stand it! yesterday was great day! I seriously was in the best mood! Nothing could bring me down! My child psych class was cancelled and i skipped math! haha (ok maybe that wasnt the smartest idea but what the heck!) Though you gotta give me some credit. I walked halfway to the building then decided that i wasnt in the mood to attend that class 2 hour class from hell. I try. My Mom sure is gonna lover reading that. haha sorry Mommy!
Me and my bff HH spent the day watching sex and the city and we ate at Camino... surprise surprise! Eeeeekkkk *claps hands. hahaha. Then i went to the gym with Sparta! Hooray for weight loss progress! LOL.
Today was uneventful. I just got back from work and i am about to work out at the rec with HH and Sparta.... Yeah i got nothin today that interesting or epic to say. haha.

Ga-Ga-Ooh-La-La

Its been a good weekend! The weather was absolutely gorgeous! The sun was out and it was in 60's! Too bad it didnt last. It is now back to the 30's and its raining. Thats TN weather for you. Friday i worked all day then spent the rest of the night watching Sex&The City with my BFF. We bought cookie dough with the intent on baking them but we ended up just eating it straight from the wrapper. LOL. The best way to eat it in my opinion! Saturday my car finally got detailed and i babysat all night. Sunday i babysat Porter and then got to witness my cousin Jordan getting baptized! I am so proud of him and his decision! Love you Jordan! Christ Church was amazing! I love coming away from there feeling on fire for God and so uplifted! We all went to Chillis afterward! I love spending time with all of them! They are all great christian people!
Now its another week. Im sitting in nutrition class "learning" about alcohol. Yippee. Only 12 days till i am laying out on the beach! I am ready for a break! No, I take that back. I am ready to be done! I want to be graduated and done with school. I have seriously hit a wall with school and i cant get around it. I have no drive or desire to be in school anymore. I know, i know, I need to finish. yada yada yada! I will finish dont worry. But i dont know what to do after i graduate. I really dont think being a child life specialist is what i want to do. Im not sure i can handle seeing all those sick children, knowing that any minute they could die. I am praying that God will help me be able to choose a career i will enjoy doing. But to be honest i would at this point love being a nanny for awhile. I love my job! Its tiring at times but i enjoy being with the twins! I love that i am going to be able to watch them grow and develop. Ok, im done complaining.
Yesterday i got home from work to find a letter for me! I love getting letters! Especially ones from my best friend Drew! It made my day! Thanks DW! Your the best! =)
Keep my Nanny in your prayers. She is in the hospital because she may have had a stroke.
Welp..thats all for now. Gotta go take an anatomy test in Human Sexuality. haha.
Much love.

Closer...

2 weeks! 14 days and counting till Spring Break 2010! A group of 5 boys (Drew,Jacob, Zach, Andy, and Lane) and 2 girls (Me and Holly) have rented a house in Gulf Shores for the week! Its gonna be marvelous! I am so ready for it! I am ready to relax! I am ready to have fun and most importantly i am ready to be TAN! haha.
Well the weekend is upon us! Thank you God! It was a good week for the most part! The sun came out yesterday and today! It would be nice if it could stay out. Have i mentioned how i am ready for the summer yet? I think i say that at least once a day now.
Tonight was super fun! Had dinner (at Camino of course) with Sparta, Robbie, Holly, and Sarah! It was fun! Then me and Holly had some quality BFF time watching Sex and the City and eating cookie dough! It was great! Now im sitting in bed WIDE AWAKE and considering watching the most recent episode of LOST. Tomorrow my car is FINALLY getting detailed and i get to have lunch with my sister and mom! HOORAY!
I really wanted to write something epic and thought provoking but nothing is coming to my mind at the moment.... Maybe tomorrow i will come up with something. But until then, have a safe and fun weekend!
Much love, LT

Prayers Please

What a day. Its been good but quite exhausting. I am not looking forward to going to school tomorrow. Uhh! Nothing beats an 8 am with the most boring nutrition teacher ever. Not to mention my 2 hour math class! LOL I mean i know you are all super jealous of me. Oh well. Its my life and Im almost done with school for good anyways.... sorta.
Spring break is around the corner! A group of us are gonna hit up Gulf Shores AL. Its gonna be crazy fun! The only issue is that there is 1 bathroom for 7 people. haha. Me and HH are the only girls! That should be interesting! haha. Less drama i guess. I plan on spending most of, if not all the time i can at the beach! I am whiter than a ghost! LOL. The only downer is that Sparta cant come anymore because he is going to Vegas. LOL. He will be greatly missed. DW is coming and so is his friend Jacob! HOORAY! We will be gone for a whole week! GOOD TIMES! CANT WAIT!
It would be super awesome if you all could say a prayer for my Nanny. She isnt doing well at all. She was rushed to the ER last night and had to have a brain scan. We will find out the results tomorrow. Also pray for my Daddy. He is having to live with her for the past three weeks and i am sure that is super stressful. Thanks!
Wish i could write more but i am sleepy! Gotta be rested for my crazy school day tomorrow!
Much love from LT.

Math is from the Devil

What a day! My first 3 classes were cancelled today! HOORAY! To bad math didn't. I seriously hate that class. I should have passed the first time. haha. Oh well.
Got to spend the afternoon with the three best friends that anyone could have =) that was fun. Holly and i made the silliest videos. We are retarded together but i love it! I dont know what i would do without her. We are the same person! Seriously. Its scary sometimes. LOL.
Math class was math class... ughhh frustrating. Its gonna be harder than i thought it would. =(
I am at a loss of words right now. Actually i have a lot to say but nothing that should be typed out on the internet for the world to see.
I need God right now. I need to focus on HIM. I need to stay positive. Please pray for me. Pray that i get the strength that i really need at this very moment.

Weekend 2

Im sitting here typing my first blog on my new MacBook! I love it! What a great investment. Here is a recap of my weekend: Saturday- i spent relaxing and not doing anything. Then i babysat sweet Porter Pie! Sunday was Valentines Day. I went to church and got to eat at my favorite restaurant Panchos with my family! DW took me to Maggie Moo's! It was delicious! I was sad when he had to go back to school.
HOORAY! Christ Church was amazing as always! We all went to Las Palmas afterward then Sarah, Evan, and i chilled out at La'Sarah's casa! It was fun! Overall the weekend was fabulous and just what i needed! Today i woke up 6 am to a text from MTSU about school being cancelled because of snow! UGHH im tired of the snow! Im ready for the warm weather! I didnt get to go to work but i did get to go purchase my MacBook so that was good! My day was quite productive and i got to spend it with my best friend twin Sparta! =)
I am reading this book "Dateable" and its blowing my mind. Thanks Sarah for letting me borrow it!
No classes till 11:00 for me tomorrow! Im gonna get caught up on LOST and read my book.
God is good.

Weekend 1

The weekend is here!! YAY!! This whole week has been so mentally draining. I needed a weekend to recover and have fun and so far it has been exactly what i needed! I got to come home to my lovely family and Charley! That was nice! Then i met up with Drew for jim nachos, milkshakes, and LOST. We had the best time! I really dont think i have laughed that hard in like...FOREVER! We seriously are the goofiest best friends ever. I am sooooooooo excited that he is transferring here to MTSU! Its gonna be a blast!... My internal alarm clock went off, as it does every morning at 635. Luckily i was able to hit the snooze button and go right back to sleep till 11! YAY! I feel so refreshed! Now if only i had my coffee... haha. I babysit all night long tonight. I would rather sit at home and do nothing but the money is going towards my new MacBook that i am currently in the process of ordering, so i think i can manage! Tomorrow is Valentines Day... and i am single... enough said... haha. No, I am totally ok with that. I know that i have years and years (Lord Willing) of Valentine Days with my future husband so i am gonna be content and happy right now! I did receive a nice box of yummy cookies from our church that i am currently enjoying!
Thank you God for the first part of my weekend being wonderful!

just another day

It was just another day for LT. Nothing really exciting. Im tired so ill keep it short.

I'm waiting for the kind of love
That is strong enough
To walk through anything
So don't waste my time
So don't waste my time
I only wanna play for keeps
Wanna fall in deep
If you don't just say goodbye
Don't waste my time
The words you say
Are what I want to hear
Promises you make
Are music to my ears
Is it the heat of the moment talking
Promises come easily
Give me something to believe
- "Dont waste my time"- Little Big Town

Elephants

Im sitting here with my best friends about to watch the Alpha Sigma Sigma boys on Tosh.O. I should be studying for my Child Psychology test but i have way too much going on in my head to concentrate. Holly is the only one participating in the study party. Sparta and i have jumped onto the procrastination train! I am the biggest procrastinator when it comes to school. haha.
I am trying so hard to stay positive. I have been doing good all day. But i tend to over-think things which in turn, makes me anxious and in a bad mood. Its a work in progress.
I DO NOT want this blog to be a sad and depressing one. So ill keep this short.
Elephant 1: I am really sick and tired of hearing about the petty and immature comments that i am hearing some of my friends say about me. Saying that i am not a good/ real friend and complaining about how little i am around anymore. They may be joking but to me its not funny. It hurts my feelings actually and maybe i shouldnt let it bother me so much but it does. I just wish they could live a day in my shoes. I work an 8-5 job, go to school full time, and am trying to balance hanging out with friends and family at the same time. It is very stressful but i wouldnt have it any other way! I have been praying about it.
Elephant 2: Sometimes my insecurities get the best of me. Especially when it comes to relationships. I have my wall up and i am trying as hard as i can to tear it down. Brick by brick. But i need help. I am praying for courage to be able to say all the words i am too afraid to say.
OK ENOUGH.
Tomorrow my best friend Drew is coming home for the weekend! Yay! Jim Nachos and LOST marathon! I am excited :) FAP
The sun came out today! Oh how i cant wait for warmer weather and sunshine!
Is it weird that when i find a song i like i listen to it over and over again till i memorize the lyrics? Oh well. I am such geek and proud of it =)

First Blog Ever

Ok so i have never been a "blogger" before. Ill just write how i feel and whats on my mind. If you have a problem with that...well i dont really care.STOP READING IMMEDIATELY. haha. Im totally skipping my math class to do this. I hate math anyways. I guess i can start with stuff about me.
Im quiet till you get to know me. Sometimes im too quiet but that usually means im too afraid to tell you what im really thinking. Give me time and i wont be afraid to tell you whatever is on my mind. Im the easiest person to read. I wear my heart on my sleeve and when i like someone i like them with all that i have. I trust you till you prove me otherwise. I am the best listener you will ever meet. Running and reading are some of my favorite hobbies. They are a good escape from reality. Pink is my favorite color. Hot pink roses and Gerber Daisy's are my favorite flowers. My black chucks and cowboy boots are my favorite shoes. I am a true southern girl. I have a farm in Viola TN. Yeah you heard right Viola TN. Look it up. Hockey is the only sport i follow. The Nashville Predators are my boys since season 1! RED WINGS SUCK. I love to dance. Be around me long enough and you will see that. I love music, and i feel naked without my ipod. My goal in life (besides getting to Heaven, which is my number 1 goal) is to have a family! I cant wait to have children of my own and I cant wait to fall in love! I am, like most girls a hopeless romantic. I love traveling and want to travel the world one day.My best friends mean everything to me (so a shout out goes to Holly, Sparta, Drew, and Tiffany). If you have something to say, say it to my face. Dont be a coward. I also think that when people mess with others emotions and lead them on is just as low as cheating. I loathe red trucks. If you dont know why then dont ask. I could eat Mexican food everyday. I have a 3 lb tiny toy yorkie named Charley. Named after my favorite character off my favorite show LOST. Taylor Swift's music is a guilty pleasure. My Grandmothers are my heros! I am a Daddy's girl. Probably the only 21 (almost 22) year old that still keeps a journal. I find that writing helps me de-stress. I throughly enjoy just hanging out and watching movies. God is a huge part of my life. I cant live without Him. My heart has been broken a few times but with God on my side He has healed the bruises. Ask me sometime about those stories it may explain me better.
