Miss Potts

Along our journey, and throughout our adventure, there are others placed along our path who lift us up, strengthen our spirits, and lighten our load. Cinderella had her mice friends, Gus-gus and Jack. Snow White has seven little dwarfs running around, saving her from spoiled apples. Tony Stark has Pepper Potts, and Rob has Big!

There is no denying that I have had many friends help me along my adventures. One of my greatest influences has been with me through primary, middle school, high school, and now soon to be college. I have learned so much from her and she has inspired me in many ways. Her name is Ember. Ember and I have had many adventures of our own!



There was middle schoool and summer league swim team, special swimming shampoo, changing in the locker room after trying to fight for a shower, and
Coach Mike's gut wrenchers, *queso/k so* jokes, and dying the pool water blue.

There was sleepovers on Friday nights, pulling any blankets and pillows onto her floor upstairs and watching Rob and Big and playing with Kristy, and playing Sims, and making muffins in the morning.

There was long over-due visits, efy's, and bringing my blanket on the roof and talking out there for hours, phone calls and constant texting, talking about everything imaginable; boys, the future, school, food, clothes, and everything under the sun.

We've seen ducks, plan to go to GRECE!, and are going to have many more great adventures to come! (check the bucket-list) This girl is awesome and I love her. I can't imagine my life without her. She has been a light to me when it was dark (and i'm not just talking a fifty-cent candle, i'm talking East-Coast lighthouse!) and made me laugh countless times. She is driven, a friend to everyone, strong, down right gorgeous, and i'm proud/honored to call her my friend!

Everyday Adventures

All stories begin with a 'Once Upon A Time,' and can always end with a 'Happily Ever After' - the middle part is up to us.
I believe that everyday is an adventure. Whether it be using the faculty bathroom in the career center when all the teachers are at lunch, a family fun surprise day, talking to a friend you haven't seen in a long time, beating your record on tetris, a road trip with friends to the beach, or a full day of seminary - school - work - homework. Everyday is different and exciting and full of possibilities.

Everyday has something special to offer. Everyday is unique. Everyday is an adventure!
