I come from a land down under ;)

Watch out for all the photos and blogs post about my semester abroad in Australia!
This wont last forever, so let me make this count

You know we only have so much time here to do as much as we can, and the older I get the lazier I feel about just letting time pass me by. I want to do and see as many things as I can but it’s almost like the more you plan the more you see that you don’t have all the time you really need.

My sister is graduating high school this year and I just can’t believe how time has just flown by. It seems like yesterday I was graduating and she was just stepping into high school. I am so proud of all that she has done and what an amazing person she has become. My grandpa always says that the older you get the faster time goes and I think he is right.

So to all of you out there who are reading this I hope you are doing everything you want to be doing and enjoying every minute of it. Too often we lose focus on what really matters in life because we become so swept away by everything we have to do in a day.  I hope you take time to laugh and hang out with your friends.  I hope you do well in school and become all that you want to be. I hope you remember that your family, whether the ones you are born with or the ones you make for yourself love you and are so proud of you even if they don’t say it as often as they should.  

Often times I have to remind myself of the last piece of wisdom I am giving out, that in life even if things don’t go the way you planned them to, everything ends up the way it’s supposed to. And even if right now seems to be a dark time in your life there is a reason for what it is happening even if you can’t see it now, one day everything will be as it should.

That is all for me

Cheers

Quote of the day:
there have been lots of ups and downs, but ultimately, at the end of the day, that's what makes you who you are. we all know how to laugh, we all know how to cry, and we all know how to love back. we all know heartbreak, but the world keeps moving, and we keep moving along with it. and everything we experience helps us realize how beautiful life really is
