Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;


Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear,
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,



And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I marked the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way
I doubted if I should ever come back.



I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Dia de Madres

Today was Mothers' Day. I hope everyone took the time out of their day to tell their moms how much they mean to them. 

My mom and I :)

Finals. Suck. 
Although I haven't had any yet the thought of having to take one Tuesday is painful. I really don't understand the whole concept of exams anyways. Everyone right now is taking extra trips to the library pretending as though they have been there many times this semester. 
'
Only a few days left in Madison. I'm not ready to go back yet. I feel as though I really don't have much for me in Lakeville. Can someone please tell me why I decided to go back for the summer? Whatever, I'm going to make the most of it. Gotta find a way to have fun somehow, right?

My family finally got the new puppy though! So cute :) I am excited to go home to that. 

Ella is on the left. Tootsie on the right. haha. 


A loving relationship is one in which the loved one is free to be himself to laugh with me, 
but never at me; 
to cry with me, but never because of me; 
to love life, to love himself, to love being loved. 
Such a relationship is based upon freedom and can never grow in a jealous heart.

Yesterday marks history

Every day that passes is new history, but yesterday was monumental. Osama bin Laden has been found and killed. As happy as I was to hear this (just like every American) it is sad to know that someone could have lived their life with so much evil. I feel bad for him. He achieved happiness and satisfaction by murder and seeing sadness in others. One thing I find disturbing is having his picture all over the internet. No matter who he is, how many bad things he did, or how many people he murdered, no ones shot head should be all over the internet. 


Now on to lighter things. Mifflin was this weekend, or was it??? Hmm at least I have pictures to tell me what happened. Great seeing people from my hometown. Mifflin has to be the best day out of the year (other than my birthday and Christmas of course!). I love seeing people :)



last week of classes. WOOHOO! Not quite ready to go back home yet though. 

Comment and let me know what you think :)

Live righteously.

I'm in a very motivation mood today. Maybe in part I finished my Independent Project for my psychology class that have been working on since the second week of semester. (AND I TURNED IT IN!)
I chose this song not only because I love it, but I love the message portrays. I feel like there is so much today that make people feel bad about themselves, but why? Everyone should know that no matter what anyone says they are amazing. Never let anyone tell you differently.

What do you all think of my SAF hat? It even has a Fanny Pack on it. Yeah. Ragin' hardcore.



I'm gonna watch Glee. Haven't seen this episode yet and I heard it was good. Love Glee. Especially Cory Monteith. This is our engagement picture ;)



MM tall, and can sing, yeah.

You dont need to touch them. Not even talk.

Inevitable Fates

Many believe, including me, that everything happens for a reason. Not necessarily the way you want them to go, but in the end things usually work out for the best. Yes, the journey there is usually very painful, and no one likes to get hurt, but everyone goes through it. I often wonder why things don't always go my way, while this may sound selfish everyone wonders. 
My answer is this; we're really not all that smart. If things went the way we wanted them to it would finalize into an even bigger mess. The couple months of suffering or pain will turn out to be worth it in the end. I'm not really sure if that makes sense but whenever something goes wrong I would like to think it is all for the better. People deserve to be happy and surrounded by those who make them that way. If someone doesn't treat you the way you believe you should be treated there is no reason to have them in your life. There are many people that would love to be your friend and treat you the right way so there is no reason to hang on to someone that doesn't. Enough of my rant.

How cute is this outfit?! I really want it. I miss shopping. At least summer is soon!

I got a care package in the mail today. Two weekends ago was my sororities Mom's weekend and of course I left my Ipod with my mom so I finally got it back. I also got about 3 pounds of Easter candy. YAY?


Comment if you think I should talk about something or what you think of my blog :)

Happy Easter

Happy Easter everyone :)  I hope you had a wonderful day. This morning I woke up early went to breakfast then mass with Bridget. The only bad part of this day was walking all the way to Randall and Mickey's Dairy Barn being closed. It turned out okay though because we still got great breakfast :)

I finally got to make my eggs too! And I have many of them in my room so if anyone is hungry come on down and I will give a tye dyed glittery gift :)


Today has been odd though. Not spending time with family on Easter is hard. At least I get to see them in a few weeks. 

I saw The Kings Speech as well. It is about King George IV and his coming to reign while having a terrible stutter. The passion and hardships of someone so powerful is motivational. Everyone, please check it out.

Sea of Red

Today was lovely outside. Perfect day for Spring football! Can't wait for the new season!


My friend Bridget and me with Bucky. Playa playa. 

As I am alone in my room right now I can't help but to think about what I would be doing at home. I would like to think I would be making cute little Easter eggs with my family just like this 



One thing that always bothers me is the near summer reconnections. Not like good friends that you haven't talked to reconnecting, but the "I've probably talked to you 5 times and now that you will be home for a summer I want to talk to you" reconnecting. I just don't get it. If you can't hold a longer conversation than "how are you" and "when you coming home" it's obvious you only want to hook up. Especially when I say I won't be back until the middle of may and don't get a response. Sorry I'm not sorry I'm not interested. Creepers.

Being back in Camp Randall was amazing. I love the atmosphere. Although the stadium was only about 1/6th filled being surrounded by Badger fans is always the best.
