i wrote a novel.

it's titled: sophomore.  it has 365 pages. a page an entry. an entry a day.
one full year documented.

i'm in the process of writing it's sequel: junior.  it's past half way completed now. 
the pages are flipping by fast, but the words they contain are some of the my favorites.

now, i can only dream of what will fill the pages of my book titled: senior
some of the most memorable of my life, i hope.


this habit of mine began far before the tenth grade. 
it formed rather amidst the grade of sixth and grew to solid form by ninth. 
it was in tenth that i started my series of volumes by year. 

after graduation i'll start one short publication
titled: the insecure stage between graduation and the "real life".
then proceed with the next best sellers, 2014, 2015, etc.

this series will be a continuation through out my life. 
i can't even begin to imagine what
twists, turns, and fairytale magic
that will unfold in my story.

gems.

here's my favorite list of scripture gems:

Wherefore, ye must press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope, and a love of God and of all men. Wherefore, if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the word of Christ, and endure to the end, behold, thus saith the Father: Ye shall have eternal life.
~2 Nephi 31:20

…My soul delighted in the scriptures…My soul delighted in the things of the Lord…
~2 Nephi 4:15-16

…But the righteous fear them not, for they love the truth and are not shaken.
~2 Nephi 9:40

Lift up your heads and be of good comfort…and I will also ease the burdens which are upon your shoulders, that even you cannot feel them upon your backs...and this will I do that ye may stand as witnesses for me hereafter, and that ye may know of a surety that I, the Lord God, do visit my people in their afflictions.
~Mosiah 24:13-14

…ye look to God and live…

that awesome moment when
you like a guy
and he likes you back
and then that guy has a best friend
who likes your best friend
and your best friend likes that guy back
and then the four of you go on double dates
and have the best of times.


(a remote control for my camera=the best toy ever.)

a first.

byu basketball game.


taken by a date,
that was introduced to grandpa, british step-grandma, and cousin.

13 dollars later, we had two large dippin' dots.
that makes for a second first.
i've never had dippin' dots before.

after about a 40 point lead, we won.

the games are a bigger deal than i realized, it was an awesome first.
and a super fun date!

work hard.

hard work is worth it.
keep trying and improving, it'll come.
never give up,
set your mind to it, be determined.
the higher difficulty the better the reward.
so don't let anything stand in your way.

and the success will build you up;
it feels good to accomplish.

we gonna party like, like it's two thousand and twelve.


it's been the best year so far.
let's just say a new years resolution has already been checked off,
and i can no longer say that i've never been kissed.
don't worry, it wasn't too lame.
there was a pretty view of the sparkeling valley
and fireworks were going off across the street.
only a couple minutes into the new year
and it was already the best one yet.

may happiness last through out the rest.
