Positives

Dear Blog,
     I'm not going to apologize for not writing in a while because frankly, I don't think you care. SO, I need to post this to remind myself of the positives of this summer because right about now I'm feeling rather down. Camera taken away from me until exam is over and working at a job I don't get paid for... and many many more things weighing me down. So I need to cheer myself up a little bit.

-Positives-

1) I am going to school in the fall (if GED goes well) to do what I love and be trained by the best in the business! Also I am already making friends with my co-workers who are all super nice.

2) Even though I am working really hard and giving up my summer, I get to watch my friend rise up above all the others who tore her down. Nancy rocks my socks and she deserves all kindness she gets!

3) I have a wonderful POOL! This heat everyones complaining about I am enjoying with my awesome pool.

4) I have such wonderful friends who never stop making me laugh. Both at youth group and at rehearsals. I love seeing your faces every day/week.

5) I've had the pleasure of watching my friend Leah's dreams come true. (seeing Taylor Swift in concert) As jealous as I am, lol I know she deserves it more then anyone else.

6) I have discovered how much I love small towns like Petrolia. Everyone is just so kind. They all greet you with a smile. They never turn you away if you have posters/flyers for them to hang up or display. Then when your little sister loses her purse at the Tim Horton they still have it when you come back after 2 hrs.

7) My friend Kyle is such a gentlemen that he always opens my doors, along with every other girl in the cast. And today he agreed to be my first male model ever. He will be making his appearence in the "Vintage" shoot. SO EXCITED!

8) My mom got me 2 cds. The new Owl City and Seventh Day Slumber. Now I have new godly tunes for my car to listen to. Such a blessing!

9) Our garage/bake sale and car wash last weekend was a smash hit! Make tons of money and it was such a success. I also got to hang out with my Taylor Swift buddy John! We listened to Tswift while waiting for people to come by the bake sale table.

10) My friend Sara is finally recovered from her surgery and is back to her normal self! I have missed her so much. Now her, her sister, Holly, and I are planning ourselves a trip to the movies to see "winnie the pooh" and all dress as our fav characters. Ya, you won't meet many people this awesome in your lifetime.

11) Health, for me and my loves ones

12) God gave me a fantastic family! He also was kind enough to give me an awesome sister that makes me laugh at even the worst of times. Even though she's still so young, she's mature beyond her years. Holly is my bestie of all time and I wuv her. I am so grateful that she's in my life to keep me sane, to listen to me rant, to make me laugh when I'm about to cry, and to just be someone who's always there for me. I can't thank God enough for my little sister.


My whole world is filled with so many blessings. Some days I just get so overwhelmed with all the negatives in life that I forget about the positives. Then I start acting like a retarded depressed teenager and nobody (especially me) wants that. I really needed to write some down to remind myself of how good I have it. And considering its 1 in the morning that old saying really comes to mind....

"When you can't sleep at night, count your blessings"

Try it... it works! ;)
