College Semester Dropout


I am very stubborn. I do not like to admit that I am hurt, having a bad day, or anything that would make me appear weak. After my car accident in August I have tried to pretend like I am okay even though I am constantly in pain. I cannot study for more than twenty minutes. I cannot sit in the testing center for more than thirty minutes without wanting to cry. I am constantly hurting and not getting any better. After much deliberation I have decided to go home and get better. I am differing for the rest of the semester and coming home to heal. I am going to come back to sunny california to spend time with the doctor, physical therapy, and whatever other treatments I can do to allow my back to heal. It is the best thing for me to do right now. I am excited to see my family and to get better!

Tolerance and Standing For Something


If you know me you would know that I am very open minded and the last to judge anyone for anything. I do not care what you did in you past. I do not care what you are doing right now. I do not care what you are planning on doing in the future. I will live my life and you can live yours. I have no place to judge. I have friends of all different backgrounds, and lifestyle choices. I love each and every one of them.
It does make me extremely mad however when people use the word tolerance as a word to describe how you do not believe what I believe. Tolerance to me is being excepting of someones choices and ideas but not necessarily making the same ones. For example I have several homosexual friends. I love them. I hang out with them. As much as I love them and respect them and am here whenever they need me I do not applaud all of their lifestyle choices. I have my own believes as well. I stand true to my believes. Just because I may be voting yes on prop 8 does not make me any less tolerant. If any thing it means I stand for something I believe in. My friends know me well enough to know that I hold true to what I believe instead of swaying with the easiest breeze.
So in simple terms I am tolerant but I stand for something. Do you stand for something? or Do you sway with the easiest breeze?

Yes on 8!!

Vote Yes on 8!

Go to whatisprop8.com

If you are still questioning think about families and children!

If you are still wondering think about separation of Church and State! Marriage is something ordained of God. Prop 8 would change this God given ordinances!

Homesick!

My sister went home this weekend! I am a little envious! I miss home, which is strange because I do not miss things. I am missing my cousins wedding. I miss Trader Joes. I miss Golden Spoon! I miss my family! I miss my best friend! I miss my brother and Disneyland. I just need a little home boost! I guess I will just have to wait till Thanksgiving. See you all then!

Utah's Version of Sprinkles!


I love cupcakes! I love sprinkles! I think dipidees might even be better! The environment is warm and inviting. You walk through the door and smell the fabulous aroma of the cakes, cookies, and cupcakes. There are large cakes spaced around the bakery that appear to be perfect. The cupcakes are big and inviting as they sit under their large glass frame. Your mouth begins to drool as you look at the large selection. The cupcakes are rich, delicious, and creme filled. Your taste buds explode with each bite! Next time you are in Utah you should check it out! It is worth the calories I promise!!
