Just some random thoughts...

This might end up being a really random post that is just everywhere so i figured I better let you know before you started reading it and got all confused and wonder what I'm talking about. It's only fair, right?

Time. I guess that's what's been on my mind a lot lately. You hear people talking all the time and they are always saying how there isn't enough time to get everything done that you want to do in a day or just how fast time is going and how they wish it would just slow down. I know that lately all I've done is wish life away. At work I seem to always have someone ask me what grade I'm in and then says something about graduation. Of course my response seems to always be the same. "I'm a senior in high school and I honestly can't wait to graduate and be able to live on my own and go to college." They always without fail "Pretty soon you will be my age and you will wish you were young again. Don't go wishing your life away." Of course I haven't ever really stopped to think about that. I am wishing my life away. I just don't want to be in high school anymore. I'm ready to move on with my life and meet new people, make new friends, and kind of have a fresh start somewhere that nobody really knows me and just start over. I'm ready to kinda grow up a little bit. Which I guess brings me to school....

I'm so ready for college. High school lately just really hasn't been all that great. I don't have a life, I don't really get out and do anything because there isn't really anyone to hang out with. I maybe have a few friends that hang out once in a while but we haven't done anything for a while. There is just so much drama and all the fights and everything just doesn't seem worth it. There are people hating other people for no reason. This year I have been trying really hard on trying to be nice to everyone or at least just not have any bad feelins toward anyone. When I do that it just makes everything easier and I'm happier. I just wish everyone would try to have that mentality. School would just be that much better. Its just overrated. I graduate in 5 months and I honestly can't wait at all.

"So, Kelsie. What are you planning on doing after you graduate?" I get that question alot. If you would have asked me that question about a month or so ago I would have been able to give you a positive answer, but now I'm not so sure anymore. I do still kinda want to be a Dental Hygienist but lately it doesn't appeal to me as much as it did. I want to take a photography class and maybe a film class also. I just want to take a bunch of different classes to see what I would enjoy doing. I've been accepted to SUU but I'm probaby going to go to Dixie. I just feel like I need to go there and I have family down there that I want to be able to spend time with and Cedar is also just way too cold. There are just various different reasons.

On a happier note I can't wait until our California Trip this year for X-Press. At first we were going to go to Knotts Berry Farm and Six Flags and Disneyland for only a day but we revoted yesterday and now we get to go to Disneyland for two days then Six Flags. I'm super excited! We also get to go to Lion King in Las Vegas. It's gonna be sweet!

I decided that I really wish I could just travel all over. There are so many places I want to go. I just wish I could take a summer or longer to just travel the world. I'm hoping to go to New York this summer with my mom, grandma, and aunts. It's just always been something I want to do really bad and I hope I get to do it. I also want to go to Boston sometime in my life to see a Red Sox game just to day that I've been to one. I want to go to Nauvoo and on a church history tour or just go back and visit just to see all the church sites and learn more about Joseph Smith and the early pioneers. This summer I'm also hoping to go on a temple road trip. I want to visit all the temples in Utah and either do baptisms or just see it in person.

Anyways, those are just some random thoughts from my head. Might have helped you to get to know me better but if not that's cool too. :D

Oh Kels, you want to be closer to me ;)! It is way too cold up in Cedar, and it's ALWAYS windy. Dixie is a good school, that's where we all went!
