Oh, the future is near!

Let's start off with a little picture of sorts, yeah? 

And I'm SCARED TO DEATH. I don't want one of my best friends to move away to Logan. In a MONTH, basically. I don't want to NOT see all my friends. As much as I say I don't want to see all the people at school after we graduate, I'm still going to miss them. I feel like I'm barely getting to know them, and I doubt I'll see... any of them again, really. I used to say I wanted to grow up, I thought it would be easy. Well, it's not. I'm barely even growing up and I don't like it. Which brings me to...

Once upon a time, as I was falling asleep last night, this idea came into my head and it seemed like a really, kinda great idea. Here it is... "Don't go to college right away. Why should I? What is my motive for doing it right away?" Then I proceeded to weigh the pro's and con's of going in the fall and deferring for a semester or two. Pro's of deferring: MONEY (which gets like, five or six points towards pro's alone), I don't have to leave Minnesota early (which is kinda lame, but I really want to go to the Minnesota State Fair! And be with my sister on her birthday!), And I guess it's mostly the money thing. Cons: I was really only going because that's what society does after high school, I just don't have any money right now, and even working all summer, it won't be enough for even one semester. 

All in all, I think I made the right decision. 

My parents support my decision, so I think it's not too shabby of an idea. 

It's not like I'm never going to go to college. 

I WILL go to college. 

Why go into debt right out of high school when I don't really have to? 

I feel good about it. It's an EXTREME weight lifted off my shoulders. 

Once I get through my AP test next week, I think I'll be virtually stress free. Mostly. 

Now, I just have to decide if I want to stay in my home ward, and if I do, stay in Young Women's or go to Relief Society. OR go to Single's ward. A decision I have to make because I'm now 18. Which is probably what spurred me into my above decision. The fact that I am LEGALLY AN ADULT. Which is scary. 

I should go study for my AP test. Even though I don't really want to. But I HAVE to. 

So.

Goodnight!

I really just kind of love this picture. There is a whole story about Alot somewhere on the big old web, but I don't really want to go find it right now and I need to go study. But enjoy! He's so cute! 

Who needs a title?

So, remember when I was going to go to Utah State and I was so excited? Well, it's not happening anymore. 


I realized that I wasn't going there for the right reasons, not to mention that I'm dirt poor and I don't especially want to put myself into debt right out of high. Not that much debt, at least. 


I'm going to Utah Valley University instead. Right here in little ole' O Town. And I'm staying at home. Which, really isn't so bad, since I'm the youngest. I have the entire downstairs to myself. I have my own bathroom. And my parents are pretty chill to begin with. 


Less money spent is a good thing. I can still get to the same place in life while staying down here. 


Also, Pinterest? Will be the death of me. I spend way to much time on there. And then I get ideas for projects I want to do that I prolly won't ever do. Except! For the pillows and canvas ideas. I'm TOTES redecorating my room this summer, and I'm so excited! I can ACTUALLY enjoy my new room (another upside of staying home for college).


Anyway, I'll brainstorm and write another blog post later. I'm no good at this business of blogging. 


Lates! :)
