I'm in love alright! With my crazy beautiful life! :D

Ke$ha's song "Crazy Beautiful Life" slightly redone to match me :)


I'm in love alright, with my crazy beautiful life. 
With the parties, the disasters, with my friends all pretty [not] plastered. 
Every night we are down to go out, 
Waking up on a different couch. 
Til the next night, o[r] the next flight. 
Yeah, I guess we're doing alright. 



Sooooo today has been kind of amazing. I woke up early again to start my day at the bakery making RICE CRISPY TREATS! and had my one amazing D&C class that I have on T/TH and then worked AGAIN for a few hours :P I love how we are crazy open there at the bakery, like we get to talk about ANYTHING for reals, from how I'm in love w/ my Psych of Gender class, and our opinions of how sex ed should be taught in schools, to making up sweet lyrics for the songs that are overplayed on the radio. :P


The most beautiful part of the day though, was the 2nd tournament game that the Bakery Ballers got to participate in at 9PM. I was sooooo jazzed about it I couldn't sit still! And honestly it was amazing, we played a team that CREAMED us in the opening game of our season, and totally held our own! We didn't win, but they were super nice and fun to joke around with, and didn't like get all cocky and stuff. For reals it was so fun! And basketball, oh man, while not my favorite sport to watch, it is MOST DEFINITELY my favorite sport to play, and I just love having fun with it and the huge joy-bringing potential it has! :) 


Intramurals have SOOOO made my LIFE this semester, and for realsiez tonight I just got the best opportunity to count my blessings, and really appreciate the people in my life. In my Doctrine and Covenants class today, Bro Garr (who is wayyyyy awesome!) was talking about how we need to leave a good legacy in our lives. He mentioned specifically for us (being college kids and all) to make sure that we ARE social, and active in our wards and communities, no matter how SHORT the time spend in any geographical area. He talked about how the littlest things can change lives, just being YOURSELF can change someone's life. And I TOTALLY got to relate to that, because for me, like my conversion to the church was all about people consistently being good examples, nurturing, caring, and loving no matter what I did, how crazy I got or how uninterested I seemed at times. Like i guess what I mentioned yesterday, you've just gotta be you. But Bro. Garr told us, we have to be proactive, and actually BE us, and DO GOOD THINGS! Especially in being an example for others. 


I'm like soooo totally blessed to have so many awesome people surrounding me that are fully invested in doing good, staying true to themselves, staying true to those around them, showing SO MUCH LOVE, GIVING so much service and just demonstrating perpetual AWESOMENESS! As I was driving to Sonic w/ Beccs (one of those great examples I'm blessed to have in my life, also on my basketball team, and a full-time ROCKSTAR!) I was kind of in this euphoric mood just because of the game, and a few great hugs I got attack people with and, well everyday stuff too :P but we were talking about people, and like there really IS sooooo much good in EVERYONE. Among all the sadness and negativity in the world. Inside all the bad traits and stony facades that are overt in our analysis of those around us... there really is so much good and so much love to find in people, and I really really love to find that love, and in the crazy happy times like tonight, that I truly, purely, unadulterated-ly get to reflect on that, like WOW, DAWG, it's overwhelming.


Anyways yeah, I'm blessed and I'm glad that the Lord has given me opportunities to appreciate my blessings in really small, yet super-profound ways.


God is great, life is good and people are crazy!
Peace, Love, Happiness :D
