The Daffodils

I was reading The Daffodils by William Wordsworth, and since girl's camp is coming up, I thought of the mountains. I saw the grassy hills, the expanses of water, the trees, the universe laid before me, the canyon the mountains the sky, everything so grand and huge, but so many tiny details. I saw the beauty and the memories and I missed it. You cannot believe how beautiful it is. Sometimes you feel like you're in a novel. Sometimes it makes you want to write a novel or a poem (especially me because I like to do that).
Sometimes the "simple" things in life are the most amazing. Some days you're satisfied with sitting in the grass or floating in the pool, and maybe it's summer fever (seriously, it's 100+ where I live), maybe it's life getting complicated, but it is so...wonderful.

Political Rant

I can see the why and benefits of the government logging calls, but they're pushing it. Why just Verizon? Terrorists don't like T-Mobile? The government more and more pushes what they can and cannot control. There is such a thing as too much government. It often seems we cannot make a real and true change; it often seems it is not a government for or by the people. And why all the hate on republicans? Democrats aren't politicians? The real reasons Romney lost? People believed commercials, thought obama was our bestie because he's black, hated romney because he was LDS, white, we've had white republican older guys in office before. News flash? Obama is not poor, is a politician, and causes just as many issues as white people. He won partially because of prejudice. I'm so sick of all this drama, you'd think it was high school. Sometimes I just want to declare anarchy! (JK, don't come
swarm my house government!) I'm done with it. Go guns. Go freedom of speech and religion. Go rights. Go gov. BY and FOR the people.

P.S. Excuse the rant
P.P.S. May throw in some fun crafts cooking etc.

Life is Starting

This photo is my childhood. Being now officially a senior in high school, everything is escalating. Along with the excitement comes terror. I'm excited to be whoever I wish and to do senior things. I'm excited to be rid of drama, to design my senior crown, to travel the world. However, I see the reality that surrounds me, that impacts my life, and I cannot ignore. I must hope for the best, but sometimes must prepare for and expect the worst. I still need to learn to drive. I will have to pay for everything. I don't know how I'll pay for college, because there is a possibility I won't receive aid or scholarships. Some people may think I don't have to and shouldn't worry about this yet, but I have no choice. I am going to get everything out of being seventeen that I can, and, hopefully, I'll be able to make life work for me. This summer (this year) I'm going to work hard and have fun.

Now that I can blog on the go, I'll have more regular posts. We'll see how this goes, and I hope I'm not just writing this message to myself. Ttys
