"..loves like a hurricane, I am a tree.."

okay so in case you live under a rock and have no idea what is going on..here's a hint: it starts with an e and ends with arthquake..got it? haha oh and we can't forget the Cat. 3 hurricane that is supposed to come this way. looks like we are going to need to brace ourselves. well maybe. i've learned that predicting the weather is more like predicting God. which in case you live under a big rock, you should know is impossible. however, it's my dream. well actually let me re-phrase that. my dream isn't to predict weather...it's to chase it. i might be one of the only teenagers in America that gets stoked on a day like today because there is nothing i love more than severe weather. it's crazy to think that people genuinely believe we have control of everything. take a look around my friend and you will see that we don't. i love storms for one reason. and that reason is because they are so much bigger and so much more powerful than any person here on earth. being unpredictable is a quality i absolutely love. which is why i have no doubt in my mind what my dreams are when it comes to weather. yeah yeah i know right about now i'm sounding like a nerd. but hey i am one. i dance in the rain, i watch storms from my front porch, and before i die i want to chase a tornado. i know i'm kinda weird. but i like to think of it as adventurous. one day when/if i grow up, the only thing i want to do is travel. and not like planned travel, the kind like "oh hey i'm gonna go to Florida for a month see ya. bye" maybe the A in my name stands for adventure. because there is nothing i love more than a good chase. contrary to what most people my age think though, we don't have our whole life ahead of us for one great adventure. last i checked, we aren't promised the next minute. so why put off for tomorrow what you could do today?...i'm not going to.

short & sweet

..now-a-days i am completely out of things to write about. like absolutely nothing comes to mind when i sit down to write. nothing pops into my head. no raw emotions in a notebook. zip. zero. nada. so here is my question.. do i wish for things to be tougher in life so that i have plenty to write about, so that i have more inspiration for everything i do? or do i wish for happy and memorable situations that give me absolutely nothing to write about, but give me memories that will last a lifetime? hmmm i have no idea. i've never been in this situation before. and honestly. it's a little bit scary.

take it easy, take it easyy

woah..so i got my schedule for senior year this morning and i have one thing to say about it. i.feel.old. like summer is almost over, i've taken two college tours and in 5 months i turn 18? i guess the saying is true. time really does fly when you're having a good time. well i guess if working outside in 100 degree weather is fun..

ya know i started this whole thing just to see if i could do it. if i could write something every month for the whole summer, kind document a day in the life of..well..me (:  i think i did a pretty okay job don't you?
