Amazing Grace

So Brittany and I made up this harmony for Amazing Grace about 4 years ago...for some reason we just cant sing it without laughing...and no, its not funny!! We know, but we cant help it.

Here is the real version and Below is one of the million versions where we couldn't stop laughing

Yes, we are 22 years old, and still act like we did when we met when we were 7

This picture just happened

Life. is. hard.

Life. is. wonderful.

Life. is. short.

Life. is. little. in. comparison. to. eternity.

Things have been rough lately, I'm not gonna lie. Things have also been great lately, I'm not gonna lie there either.

I dont understand why things happen the way they do sometimes. I have been done so wrong. and there is NOTHING I can do about it. The only thing I am trying to do at this points is

Let. it. go.

The only problem is I. don't. know. how.

Im heading up to NYC for job fair event for post MTV Interns. I am hoping to come home with a job. I know the likelihood of that is small, but I am going to do everything possible to make that happen.

Sometimes, when I am in my car by myself, I kind of do an interview with myself. That sounds weird...but its kind of like an evaluation of what is going on in my life. I ask the questions in my head and answer them out loud like I am in an interview. It helps me get a grasp on things.

I answered something that was totally inspired from above because Lord knows I didn't think of it...

I began talking about eternity. I said (to myself)...

"its so easy to get so micro focused on the situation that is going on in our lives at this present moment. It's easy to say that this experience is going to hinder my future even though its so unfair, but in 2 years, this won't stop me. Hell, in six months, this might not even matter. When we think of our lives in terms of eternity, they are microscopic. They are a little fleeting moments in time. I have to stop looking at what happened, and decide what should happen. By not deciding, but looking up to my father in heaven, I know things will be right. Things will be in place. and maybe when I get to where I'm going, I will figure out why this had to happen."

Lemme take yo Pichaa

My Super Uber Update!

I haven't been on here in years, but I have lots to talk about!

First I will start with Alex's 23rd birthday! How crazy! He is an old man. He should be married by now and at least have one kid hehe..juuust kidding!

Well the weekend was less than fantastic, but ended up being wonderful anyways. I had this whole master plan to make everything happy and exciting for his birthday, and pretty much every plan fell through...BUT we did get to enjoy several days together, so I won't chalk it up to a loss, at all!

So first for his birthday, I wanted to take him hiking up this pretty trail in North Georgia. I spent the day organizing and cleaning his room while he was at practice.. oh wait

ANNOUNCEMENT: ALEX HAS OFFICIALLY MADE THE GEORGIA FOOTBALL TEAM! HE'S NUMBER 23

...Ok continuing.. As I was picking him up, water in tow, his mom called and said she was on her way with his scooter for his birthday. This in turn made us come back home, get in a fight because i was so bummed, and then his mom called and said the scooter wasn't coming because it was broken and they had to send it back. Major failure there..

I was really contemplating how to give alex his present from me, and when my mountain idea was no longer part of the plan, i came up with a new one! I bought alex a shirt he wanted for his bday a while ago and couldnt keep the secret so i gave it to him. Because of that, he didnt expect another gift, especially a really unfortunately expensive gift...SO...I have a video as to how I surprised him with his new Jordan Shoes!

After the shoes, we decided to go out to dinner with some of Alex's favorite friends Justin and John. We had a delicious dinner at LOGANS and a good time was had by all.

That night was followed by a visit to the lake and some yummy pancakes in the morning, but there was one more surprise that even I didnt know about. My aunt KT had recieved a car from her father in law when he passed away and decided to give it to alex. I wish I had a video of the whole thing to show you when he found out, but needless to say, when a 23 year old gets his first car, he is more than excited!

We then decided to drive up to HELEN, GA to spend the day there when Alex got unfortunately sick. He got strep or a cough or something crazy and ended up sitting/sleeping in the car while i walked around for about an hour by myself.. Struggle.

We then went home and spent some time together. OVERALL, it was a success even though it seemed very struggling!

I cant figure out how to put pictures on here now, but when i DO, i WILL. more to come
