Silence is the most terrible sound in the world.
And the most beautiful is your voice.

Minimum Day = Maximum Fun
When I wrap my arms around you
Every mistake we made crumbles
When I wrap my arms around you
Everything echoes a new song
Ahaha today has been fun. Minimum days = Awesomeness. I went to Starbucks with Kevin, Nicole, Kaitlyn and Shanley. I got this strawberries and cream thing that was super good. Then we went to dollar tree, radio shack etc. We went to TJ Max and played hide-and-seek haha. I was the best hider. Tten Kevin and I went to S&S and the Asian manager guy was yelling at this kid. I don't know what he really said but it sounded like "You no booty-bump table or you outta here!" haha. Then the kid asked this plumber guy if he could paint his toenails with the glue stuff. He should have said yes lol. Now homework. Ew.

The Scientist
Come up to meet you,
Tell you I'm sorry,
You don't know how lovely you are.
I had to find you,
Tell you I need you,
Tell you I set you apart.
Tell me your secrets,
And ask me your questions,
Oh let's go back to the start.
Runnin' in circles,
Comin' up tails,
Heads on the science apart.
Nobody said it was easy,
It's such a shame for us to part.
Nobody said it was easy,
No one ever said it would be this hard.
Oh take me back to the start.
I was just guessin',
At numbers and figures,
Pullin' the puzzles apart.
Questions of science,
Science and progress,
Do not speak as loud as my heart.
Tell me you love me,
Come back and haunt me,
Oh on I rush to the start.
Runnin' in circles,
Chasin' our tails,
Comin' back as we are.
It hit me last night. I cried. But now I know that you are making a smart decision and I just want you to be happy. It's going to be a tough start, but when you pull through, it will be worth it. Trust me.
The start of the day was rough for me. I still had those words engraved in my brain. My head was full of song lyrics that made me angry because they tormented me. The Scientist was my relief. I don't know why but it made me forget. I left for the day with my heart still heavy. It lightened with the presence of others that make my life so enjoyable. That is why it's hard for you, isn't it? Well, I am telling you, you are not alone. And soon it will seem silly that you thought that.

Wow...
It's been a while. There is so much on my mind at this point. There is no way I can type it all out. The past few weeks have been absolutely crazy. Crazy fun, crazy stressful, crazy sad, and crazy crazy.
My brother left for school while I was still at church. I don't really feel sad, I just know and acknowledge that you are gone. Maybe I'm just not worried about you. Maybe it just hasn't hit me yet.
At first I wasn't afraid of how I would feel. I wasn't worrying about my emotions and I thought I would be fine. Not until that expanse of what felt like seconds when I know it was much longer. Never in my life had I ever held someone so close and for so long. I crumbled when you told me you could hear my heartbeat. I wasn't standing on the ground anymore. And when you turned around on your way to leave, those crumbled pieces melted. I felt like time was standing still. I wish I could have made time stand still. The next night I wrote down my thoughts. I hope you read them at the right moment. Night seems to be our best time of day, but this morning was great and I'm so glad it happened. Thank you for everything.
Goodbye and good luck to both of you. I know you will be great.

Dream Big
When you cry be sure to dry your eyes, cause better days are sure to come.
And when you smile be sure to smile wide, and don't let them know that they have won.
And when you walk, walk with pride, and don't show the hurt inside, because the pain will soon be gone.
And when you dream, dream big, as big as the ocean blue.
Cause when you dream it might come true.
When you dream, dream big.
And when you laugh be sure to laugh out loud, cause it will carry all your cares away.
And when you see, see the beauty all around and in yourself, and it will help you feel okay.
And when you pray, pray for strength to help to carry on when the troubles come your way.
I decided to use song lyrics intead of a picture. It's a very corny song but I find truth in its corniness. Today was a good day overall. However, I didn't get any work done so I will have to make up for it tomorrow. I went to Cameron's this morning with my brother and stayed way longer than I thought I would. We planned on going to see The Society since they only perform once a month so I invited Katie and Amanda. We met up with them at the ER Playhouse and The Society was awesome, despite missing Kirby Heybourne. It was a really fun night and everyone had a good time. I can't wait for September 13th when they perform again. Tomorrow will have to consist wlot of work since I didn't get any done today. I can only imagine how much fun it will be to read a hundred pages of mythology. (SparkNotes, anyone?) So yeah an early morning and alot of work is not much to look forward to, but there are a few things I really am looking forward to.
Oh and Michael Phelps won a gold. And broke the world record. Big surprise. Haha.

I need to let go.
Seriously, it's getting way too hard. Not completely, that is just preposterous. I will never let go completely, trust me. I'm going to loosen my grip. It will not be easy.

Nostalgia
Today was another one of those relatively uneventful days. A good day, nonetheless. We has a giant day of duck-duck-goose and I got picked and sprinted until my boot nearly fell off. I "goosed" Katie Winter because she has a knee brace and it was really funny. Mrs. Palmer made us run a second lap so that a parent could take pictures. Katie is a cool kid, one of my favorite freshmen. Now for some thoughts...
nos·tal·gia
[no-stal-juh]
–noun
1.
a wistful desire to return in thought or in fact to a former time in one's life, to one's home or homeland, or to one's family and friends; a sentimental yearning for the happiness of a former place or time.

I realized that this is one of my favorite words. I reason this because it happens to me all of the time. I wish I could go back and relive those amazing days and make them even better. I want to learn to live in a way that makes these amazing memories for everyone. I want people to think of me and feel nostalgic. I strive to create memories that induce a wistful desire to return to a former time in one's life. I want to do this because of so many people that have done it for me. One person in particular who is leaving soon is going to be occupying my mind alot, and flooding it with nostalgia. I hope she feels the same way but at the same time I hope that she doesn't feel the desire as strong as I know I will because it is so hard to say goodbye. You have changed my life forever and I hope you know that and that you continue to do so. we hit it off right. ;P

Been A While...
I haven't posted in a while. It's probably because this week has been very uneventful. Band Camp was same as usual. My life was very boring altogether, actually. There really isn't much to say. Yesterday I had an SMR practice which went very well, if you can't tell by the video haha. We have a new drummer which is kinda like the new super glue that holds us together. Today I went to church and had the missionaries over for dinner afterwards. They are both pretty cool and I look forward to getting to know them better.
Almost twice in one day almost doesn't seem like a coincidence. A smile and a wave as you passed by made my day.
