College

Well yesterday I started my first college class for Western Piedmont Community College. I have to say this is going to be the start of my future and who I wanna be in life. I hope to go all the way in the Nursing Program and hopefully my last year in college to get my BSN in Nursing so I can work in a hospital. I've prayed many times about it and thought I would do what God wants me to do and for some reason Nursing always makes its way back around and since then I've been thinking that its a sign...its what God wants. So I got all the classes I'm going to take and it may get difficult but in the long run I'll be thankful I did what I did. Hopefully , this will be the thing for me I need to do.

Lazy Days/Bipolar Weather

This weather has been crazy. One minute it rains, another the sun is out clear skies and absolutely beautiful, then it's back raining again. The weather has been like mood swings. One minute there's good weather the next is bad. Just like us. We get into mood swings sometimes. We don't always stay in one certain mood all the time. We have feelings like the weather does. I just hope it doesn't continue to do this for the rest of the summer. So anyways, today has been a LAZY day. Didn't get up till a little after 10 this morning and hung out at the house. Played corn hole with the brother, but the ground was too soggy to really do anything. I hate it when that happens. So that's what my day has consisted of......for the time being.

Summer Nights/New Semester Comin'

Well I have to say its been a while..I've been so busy with graduation, grandparents coming up here, and getting ready for fall semester its unreal. I've missed my friends a whole lot since I graduated and they will continue to live in my heart. We always say "this is not goodbye, just an I'll see you soon." Most people just leave and never come back. I hope that the friends I've made through the years don't leave and continue to make memories. I'm sure there'll be plenty more in the years to come. My friends that are continuing through high school I wish you the best because like they always say, Time flies when you're having fun. These are the best years of your life so make the most of them. Now it hasn't fully hit me yet, but once August gets here it's gonna hit me. Anyways, since graduation, I've been spending time with my family and enjoying this summer air. I love wasting Friday nights with people that mean the most to me and sitting by a bonfire playing corn hole and ladderball. Been skyping with some of my friends and I'll keep in touch with them. I've made so many friends through the years and its hard to believe that grade school is over. Its officially the time to grow up.

Spring Break 2013

Well, Spring Break time. Really haven't done much just been hanging out with family and getting our house ready for my grandparents next month. They're coming down for my graduation and to see my cousin Travis get married. I haven't seen them in a while. Anyways, well as i said in my last post i'm getting my cap and gown and other senior stuff next week. I know its already here i cant believe it. Not too long down the road is Prom and then the big day "GRADUATION". i have my capping ceremony next month, too. Thats just around the corner. So much in one month. I have my last concert next month, capping ceremony, Prom, and then Graduation. After that everything is gonna be all gone....then here I say it...........COLLEGE TIME....... Time has just flown by. I cant still remember my first day into Kindergarten. As many people have told me "Time Flies When You're Having Fun" and yes it surely has. I will let you know in the next post about my senior stuff and hopefully I'll post a picture of me in my cap and gown along with some friends.

Oh Wow....

Ok so now I just realized that I have 2 more months left in high school. I can't believe it... like at all. I was just finding out that I get my Cap & Gown plus Graduation supplies next month and I also have Cap & Gown pictures next month. I can't even imagine what the next two months are going to be like....especially in May. In Ensemble we were just talking about what we were going to do for our last concert and I just couldn't help but almost start to cry. I shed a couple tears as I was picking my top 5 songs that I enjoyed doing through the years. We're doing a "Reprise" concert. It's the senior theme. As I was thinking about what songs I liked, I looked at my friend Kari and started shedding a tear. She was too, but we don't need to be upset about it. It's going to be the start of a new chapter in our lives. Yes we can shed tears but really its only the beginning. Anyways, more to come in the next little bit maybe.....

Big 1-8

Well i just recently turned 18 last month. I've been blessed beyond measure by getting to enjoy another year of life on this Earth. God has truly blessed me throughout my life and I know He will keep continuing to through the years. When I got home from my grandparents house, I come home to find that my stepdad made me the coolest pancakes. They were in the shape of an "18". They had a cookie cake and my mom made me a paper mache flower hanging over the chandelier along with the cutest flowers in a Mason Jar.. Yes my Mom sure does know how to "Southern Decorate" LOL! :) My parents and grandparents gave me the greatest birthday parties and I even got my ears pierced for the first time ever. I know many of you are shocked to see that I have never got them pierced before, but this time i finally gave in. We went out to eat on the day of my birthday and went back to my parents' friend's house and her friend got me the cutest "Life is Good" messenger bag and got me a set of owl earrings and then said she forgot that I didn't have my ears pierced. She convinced me along with my parents and her husband that it wouldn't hurt that all it was was a little prick and you're done. So reluctantly I gave in. So we went to Walmart and I ended up getting them pierced. I was worrying myself half to death over absolutely nothing. I have to wear these diamonds I chose for 6 weeks and then I can start wearing different ones. Honestly, I couldn't tell you how GREAT of a birthday I had. I got a new phone, money, stuff from Bath & Body Works, and I know its not over yet because soon I'll be getting my first car.. that means I'm going to have to get out of the "Driving Miss Daisy" stage soon. I appreciate so much what all my family has done for me and I couldn't thank them enough. I know I may not show it, but deep down I do thank you <3

Papa

Yesterday, Heaven gained an amazing angel when my great-granddaddy Edward "Pete" Taylor entered those gates. Papa you taught us to work for what we want and you were always working to support our family. You've left behind a legacy for all of us to remember and we will remember our times we had with you. You were a great husband to my Grandma Taylor, a great grandpa to your grandkids and a friend to everyone. One day I will see you again, Papa. I love you very much <3

Great Day......New Semester.....Almost Finished

Well to sum up so far of how the semesters going....its going to be a fun filled one. I have English 4 this semester which means its Graduation Project Time. It also means that graduation is just around the corner. 4 more months.....it's gonna go by like that. Anyways, we're learning new songs in chorus, I'm taking Pre-Calculus and well it's gonna be a challenge even though I practically don't need the class. I have all my maths done with including sciences, histories, and almost done with English. I got scholarships to sign up for and grants and decide what I want to do in the future. Im leaning towards Nursing. Thats where I feel like I should be at. I'm really good with people and I like to help them out. I'm making new and more friends each and every day. It's just hard to believe it's about over. It's hard to swallow. I've made so many great memories being in elementary, middle, and high school and just in 4 short months it'll be done and over and here comes college. I've gotta grow up at least some point in time. I can't be a kid forever.
