what a ride.

Wow. It's been so long since posting in this blog. It's now 2011! Summer 2010 was a fun one, the start of UCF was a GREAT first semester. Good grades and rowing for ucf now! I love it! I'm really happy with everything now. I miss UF friends ): and kasper and family, but i guess its just a new experience. This past winter break was a really fun one! haha lots of adventures ;)

Now we start 2o11. Here's to an amazing year, good grades, awesome rowing, healthy, wealthy, good relationship, and lots of fun :)

So I have about 5 weeks of school left at Lake mary high. FINALLY! I'm SO excited for UCF!!! its almost there. with ucf comes apartment, new people, new friends, new guys, rowing, new experiences, adventures, parties, and fun times. I am truely more than excited to set out on this new adventure. IM DONE WITH LAKE MARY. Rowing should be pretty neat. Ive been working out alot to prepare!

wow.

it's been such a long time since i came back to this blog. *sigh* so much has happened, theres no where to start! perhaps i should keep up with this blog..or leave and let live? not sure. well maybe i'll just give a short overview...

senior year, classes doing alright, homecoming queen, band sucks, no vball, passed out after giving blood, now im here. just me. thinking as i always do. college is just so close! looking at ucf.

so i just read some old convos, old blogs, pictures...such memories. make me teary eyed ): happy times, sad times...makes me look forward to the future more, but miss the past =/ i cant say im not happy right now, im great, livin life. somethings missing though ):

i have a big heart, lots of love to share...wondering when he will come around. guh.

maybe i shouldnt think so much about it...perhaps when we run into eachother we'll know...maybe not. haha so confused ):

but with colllege coming up maybe...but then again grades come first. well, now that im ranting on my thoughts perhaps its best to leave it. haha gotta go to work now. oy. i'll try to keep up with the blog. i wonder if anyone reads them anyways...but i guess it doesnt matter...puts my thoughts down. ha

:)

The end of school is nearing. Summer is approaching. Yipppeeee!!! I thought the school year would never end....wait it hasnt yet. haha. hopefully i can make the best of my junior year in the next week or so...bringing some grades up possibly. =/ So this summer... im SO EXCITED! Sun, beach, kayak, swim, online school =/, job hopefully, besties, girles, matt, parties, food, movies....i cant wait!

As highschool progresses, it seems it just keeps getting better and better (grades being the exception =/) this year has been fun with the girlies! and this summer will be even better! Matt makes me sooo happy! Im so glad to have him in my life. Next year i will be a senior! woop woop! much fun!

So hopefully i get a job this summer! i need to get a laptop! and save for college! :)

I think i just realized today how much i truly hate being home for hours at a time with nothing to do. just sitting here makes me so ansty. MUST GO OUT. :p

I also realized something else...people change. for the good and bad. why must kids our age turn to drinking and smoking? a drink here or there i deal with. but excessivly drinking and smoking is an absolute no no... really? why? i'll answer that question...they drink and smoke because they are possibly insecure about themselves or their current lives. Maybe they are mad or sad and looking for a way out and relieving themselves in such ways. maybe they are a little too happy and get carried away. maybe they are pressured into it. or maybe doing it willingly just for the hell of it. Of course ive had a drink or two, but never smoked. i dont see why. if ur hurt in any way, or any of the reasons or others that i listed, why not turn to something else. i dont really understand why someone would hurt themselves in such ways even though they know exactly what they are getting themselves into. One doesnt need to booze and smokeing to be happy. Why not be happy with the ones you love w/o being intoxicated or high.

Im actually really happy where im at now. i have my family, besties, girlies, matt, kasper and just living life. School is school. grades do matter, however, i dont know if this is a bad thing or not...but i am seemingly starting to ...idk the word for it...maybe care less? drift away from sucha drive? idk. of course i am still trying and such, dont get me wrong about that, but right now, everything just seems to be going well.

that prob made no sense to anyone. lol. my own thoughts though. haha

Congrats to those graduates of 09! Neil, Matt, Amber, Shelby, Kim...other seniors as well! You've worked are and now venture off to college! best of luck to you!
I cant wait to graduate! haha ;)

As i look back, i wish prom would come again. haha. it was an amazing night. but then again, i know there will be more amazing nights ahead of me. :)

Now i leave you with this quote...as we all take our own paths, good or bad, as Gandalf said, we must keep our feet, or there is no telling where we might get swept off to. I <3 LOTR.

"He used often to say there was only one Road; that it was like a great river: it's springs were at every doorstep and every path was it's tributary. "It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out of your door," he used to say. "You step into the Road, and if you don't keep your feet, there is no telling where you might be swept off to.""

soooo....

I havent blogged in awhile, upsetting I know. =( but..lets see where to startttt... Today, this is really random, but my mom was just talking to me and she said, "Lauren, when you get a bit older and have little babies i want to tell you, make sure you send them to swim lessons at a young age, there are too many deaths related to young ones drowning" it was interesting to hear he say, I've always been very alert to such cases. Reading the newspaper every morning has swormed me with news. I hate and feel such anger when i read a story such as the caylee anthony story, trenton ducket, or ramsey. They are such horror stories. How and why could a mother or father do such a thing to such a beautiful child with such a life ahead of them. Anyone would have taken them in if the parents didnt want them. It disgusts me. okay. enough said before I get upset.

The other day i got to thinking...Life. Its about the joy and happiness that occur during the moments you live. Laughing and smiling my way through life. Liveing and Loveing ever step, every breathe I take. Why be gloomy and sorrow when you can be happy and joyful. I love to laugh and smile as many know. I love seeing the same. A smile is worth a thousand words. I believe that statement to be incorrect. A smile is not worth a thousand words, a smile is more than words can describe. People in my life make me amazingly happy, its crazy. Why worry so much, stress, get mad, angry...when one can embrace life, live it to the fullest. Living life, Loving Life, Smiling, Happiness, and Laughing, its the way of life, and Im loving it.

I am a very happy person, I do have my times however when I'm upset, but that NEVER lasts long and it takes alot to upset me. I do get worried and nervous alot. Not good. or is it? School frustrates me up the ying yang. Grades havent been going the way i have planned...I kinda dug myself a deep hole and im scurrying trying to climb out but cant find a ledge of the hole to grab onto. what am i doing? i feel lost at times. But somehow, something good always comes out of it. I'm SO optimistic. I know i will succeed in the end. Whatever happens, i will succeed.

As a junior, I love what im doing and where im at. Im having fun and happy! I laugh all the time, cry alot from laughs. Through some tears, things pull together. I think i will look back on highschool knowing i had a blast with all my buddies...okay i guess i'll name most everyone...since i never do...Kstinas, Lauren, Brittany, Neil, Matt Robin <3! Matt tavera, Omar, ms glum, simon, talia, kirsti, carol, caroline, camille, jenn, katie, abby, amber, chessy, alexis..the list goes on... the girlies, besties, buddies, b/f!, friends, w/e be their title, I LOVE! You guys truely make me ohhh sooo happy! The laughs, tears, smiles, amazinggg times have, so far, been unforgettable. with a little over a year left of highschool, it will be even better, more amazingly fun happy times. I cant wait.

As i look into the future, graduation, college, carerr, marriage, kids...I cant wait. I cant wait to see what in store for me! college is a scary thing to think about. Will i get in? where? will i be good enough? rejected? scholorships? sat? ahhhhhhh!

Prom is coming up and I cantttttt wait!!! I <333 Matt sooo much! makes my life sparkle soooo much!! He, being such a happy person, with an amazing smile is incredible! We have had alot of amazing times soo far and many more! <333 (:

Soooo...BEACH time!! i need a tan! haha The girlies and I are going for a night or two to ormond together! woot!!!

Well, i best get on my hw, American idol is on tonight!

With much love and laughter, LBB
