these is my words

Everyone read this book. Please. I don't think a book has made me cry this hard. Ever. It has become one of my favorites. I can't stop thinking about it. The love story between Jack and Sarah seriously has gone on the list as one my favorite love stories, which coming from me, is a high place of honor. I loved how strong Sarah was. She's so independent yet needed him and missed him so much when he would leave. Jack was such a MAN and so good and brave and loved her so much. This story will stay with me forever. I dont know how to describe why this touched me so much but it just spoke to my heart and soul and I can't stop crying. Can't wait to read it again. It also doesn't help that "My Heart Will Go On" by Celine just came on either. Too many emotions. Time for bed.

“I’d rather be with him in a bad mood
than most other men when
they’re trying to pay me a compliment”
-Sarah A. Elliot (These Is My Words)

“Now he is back, and I feel like my arm
or something has been missing
and now is returned to me”
-Sarah A. Elliot (These Is My Words)

I have named the star Jack’s Star. It is beautiful and bright and gives me joy when it is here and pain when it is not, and every year as the summer approaches, I have seen it coming over the hills. I used to think that maybe someday I will learn what educated people have called it and why it is only here sometimes, but now I think it wouldn’t matter. It is Jack’s Star, and they have only to ask me and I will tell them its name. They will have to ask the star itself where it goes and why it is not content to stay.

am i the only one?

do you ever just feel like you suck? haha. dramatic i know, but i am just feeling bad about all the things i say that i really shouldnt say. i dont think i am an awful person. it's just that i have a lot to work on. especially when it comes to the things i say. i am a little outspoken and have learned many hard lessons about watching the things that come out of my mouth. sometimes i just say too much. it is something that i have really seen about myself this summer. that i just need to be kinder and not so sarcastic. i need to stop with the bad language. i need to not get so worked up over things and just run my mouth off about a situation that is hurting or bugging me. i know sometimes you just need to vent things but i feel like i do it to much. and i express my opinions a little too freely. soooo here is my goal. i know that im not going to change the fact that i like to express my opinions, i just want to be kinder about it. and be a better example to those around me. and not let things bug or get to me so much. and be someone that i am proud of. so i am going to really keep this in mind this coming school year. i just want to be a better person. sometimes i feel like i am never going to get better. but that is just not a good attitude to have. im going to be a better friend, sister, student, and daughter. so if you ever hear me complaining remind me to change my attitude! alright well that is my rant for the day.

on a lighter note.... I MOVE BACK TO LOGAN ON THE 25th!!! i am really excited! i have missed everyone so much. and i am just ready for school to start. it will be a busy year but i am ready. bring.it.on!! i cant wait to see what it going to happen. the change i can feel in the air is almost tangible! i can lick it up. eww i am sorry that was incredibly disgusting. too late..

oh and it is my half birthday today!! presents welcome! ahhh i will be 20 in six months. that truly freaks me out.

anyways... i just really love everyone and i feel so much better. so thank you blog for letting me get some things out. and as always let me add some pics so this is funner to look at (more fun? i am supposed to be an english major. oh well)
