sweet memories

There's something about being home, that really makes me remenis on old times, and the fun i had growing up. I love living life day-to-day, and for the most part do not long for things of the past, but every so often I grow longing of days gone by, and i'd just for a moment, like to remember some of the things that make my heart swell, and occasionally ache.

• closet monster with dad-it was a fun game where he would go into the closet and come out a monster
• girls nights with kylie, tanya, jaclyn, haley, and sometimes all 4!
• Trampolene games like crack the egg, "turnsie", and sometimes just ones we made up
• my hott pink room with my bed in the air
• making up dances to backstreet boys and N'sync
• Mickey Mouse pancakes at grandmas house after a sleep over
• Chalk roads in the cul-d-sac
• Playing at the Delaney's House, they always had the most amazing barbie collection
• making movies with Ashley Weaver
• Writing down my life plan with tanya, we would include who we were going to marry, our kids names, etc. etc...thankfully they did not come true..
• stake dances, and getting ready for them
• american girl dolls
• facebook chatting w/ garrett for hours on end
• movie nights at the Milburn's
• myspace and photobucket
• driving around in shawn's yellow blazer
• sleeping on the floor of my apartment in florida with 3 of the funnest girls ever
• Mountain View basketball

Okay so that was a fun trip down memory lane, it's interesting when I start thinking back, certian things just have left my mind, and most of them are things that at the time i though were so great and amzing, but looking back, and knowing what I know now, they are things that I wish I had never done or experienced. I wish I could write a letter to me back then, and tell myself what I know now, that there are very few people in high school that will make it into your future, that your bad choices WILL follow you, and that if you just cling to the good in the world, you will be much happier for it. I could go into specifics, but that would be a little too personal for my blog :)
I'm sure someday I will look back at my life now, and wish I had not stressed so much over certian things, or spent more time with this person, or that person, or been a little bit more worried about school than I am...we will surely see:)
