<br />
1. Doctor Who GIFs<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
2. That's a guilty pleasure because I've never seen Doctor Who.<br />
<br />
3. 80's love ballads. Which I don't think is to anything be guilty of, but apparently to kids my age it is.<br />
<br />
4. Processed cheese <span style="font-family: Arial;">#</span>nojudging <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">#</span>hatersgonnahate<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />

5. Using hash tags on places besides Twitter. <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">#</span>that'sright<br />

Last night we had a girl's night at G's house, and I am quite convinced I have the best flippin friends in the whole flipping world. I mean come on, only my friends and me get together for slumber parties and <span style="font-size: large;">watch Phantom of the Opera</span> and<span style="font-size: large;"> try on each other's clothes</span> and <span style="font-size: large;">listen to 40's music</span> and <span style="font-size: large;">sleep with puppies</span> and<span style="font-size: large;"> fit three people on Graci's tiny bed</span> and two on the floor and go to sleep singing <span style="font-size: large;">Jar of Hearts karaoke </span><span style="font-size: small;">(we harmonized very well for midnight, thank you). <span style="font-size: large;">Only us.</span> </span></div>

I got home and since of course when one is with such admirable company as I was at sleepovers, one does not get to sleep until approximately 2:30, I got some beach towels and laid them out on the front lawn and had a nice long nap. </div>

<br />
The first 2 episodes I watched today were great. They were wonderful and I was really starting to love Rumpelstiltskin again like I used to. And then I watched the Miller's Daughter episode.<br />
<br />
<div align="center">
And Rumpelstiltskin had to have a backstory where he got together with young version of Regina's mom.<br />
<br />
And then the fangirls got their torches and pitchforks and marched on the ABC Studios.<br />
</div>
<div align="center">
Seriously? REGINA'S FREAKING <strong><em>MOTHER?!</em></strong> AND she had to go and steal Belle's hairstyle.</div>

I haven't seen this movie in like, over five years. This song...it just gave me the best kinda nostalgia, ya know? Almost started crying. Hit me right in the childhood.<br />
<br />
<br />
This doesn't have anything to do with reliving your childhood, but check out what Nicole found at the thrift store...<br />

Oh yeah, baby. I'm rocking that sucker. It matches with literally every shirt I own. AND. It's brand-name Under Armor. Only 20 dolla bills. Yes, please. Tags still on...$69.99 in store.<br />
<br />
People at school the other day when I wore it would tell me, "Cute jacket," and I'd just say, "Thrift shop." And every once in a while I'd get one of THOSE looks, like Oh, you're one of THOSE people. Seriously, if you think thrift shopping is lame, just, be gone from me.<br />

Especially after this song just came out. (Don't worry, it's one of the good, clean, cover versions.) Lindsey Stirling just makes everything better.<br />

Before I end this post which is getting way too long, I've noticed there's definitely a list-theme going on for my posts this year. Have you noticed? I've noticed. Here's another one.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Fourteen Things That Made Today Awesome</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #bf9000;">1. It was SUNNY!!!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: black;">2. When we got to school, the ASB and Leadership kids had covered the entire school with our Share the Love fundraiser program decorations. Every locker had some kind of cute/hearty/pink thing on it. It just made me happy.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #bf9000;">3. 1 period P.E. was a classroom working day instead of a gym workout day. (That means I got to wear an extra cute outfit to school.)</span><br />
<br />
4. My favorite sub taught our Spanish class. <br />
<br />
<span style="color: #bf9000;">5. In World Studies we had an awesome debate-slash-free-for-all-argument in class and Mr. Hagen didn't even care that me and M and K ate the chocolate chips and almonds from my lunch while we were doing it.</span><br />
<br />
6. SHARE THE LOVE ASSEMBLY WAS AMAZING! It was incredible to see how much a whole school can care about one family. I cried.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #bf9000;">7. No seriously, I cried.</span><br />
<br />
8. Brooke and her sister Megan performed a song that they wrote during the assembly, and it was be-YOU-tiful! I love you guys.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #bf9000;">9. Friend P decided last minute to try out for Mr. MHS which means we can make "Vote for Pedro" t-shirts.</span><br />
<br />
10. Yeah. Like from Napoleon Dynamite.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #bf9000;">11. I got away with wearing skin-colored nylons underneath my capris so I wouldn't have to wear socks with my flats. Score.</span><br />
<br />
12. I cleared up some drama with one of my friends and we both feel so much better. Yay for having the courage to say sorry and just be happy!<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #bf9000;">13. I got into concert choir.... :)</span> <br />
<br />
14. IT IS STILL SUNNY!!!<br />
<br />
<br />
I love you all. May your days be merry and bright, and may all your Fridays be awesome.<br />
<br />
<br />

First, there was <span style="font-size: large;">raspberry hot chocolate</span> in the morning, and then <span style="font-size: large;">surprise at my locker</span> with <span style="font-size: large;">birthday balloons</span> and <span style="font-size: large;">heartfelt notes</span> and a<span style="font-size: large;"> taco bell gift card</span><span style="font-size: small;">, and oh my goodness <span style="font-size: large;">three chocolate cakes</span>, and a <span style="font-size: large;">bag of Twix</span>, and a <span style="font-size: large;">singing card</span>, and a <span style="font-size: large;">Lilo and Stitch movie night</span> and </span><span style="font-size: large;"><em><strong>holy cow,</strong></em></span><br />
<br />
needless to say, I was <span style="font-size: large;">one happy girl</span>.<br />
<br />
And now I can identify with these lovely songs.<br />

Because I'm fifteen now and oh so awesome, and also because I love making lists, I'm going to make a list of fifteen quirky things about me.<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><strong>Fifteen Quirky Things About Me:</strong></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">1.</span> I like oregano in my scrambled eggs.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">2.</span> I love to smell books.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">3.</span> I shop at thrift stores. A lot.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">4.</span> If I could be a smell I would be the smell of rain after it's been dry for a long time. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">5.</span> My favorite words are serendipity, ethereal, and rendezvous.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">6.</span> I am nerdy enough to have favorite words. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">7.</span> I really love flower clips that you put in your hair. And they have buttons on them sometimes? Oh, yeah. They're so neat.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">8.</span> Also, I love the word neat. I'm going to start using it more often, thank you Graci. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">9.</span> I love making lists.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">10.</span> Obviously.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">11.</span> I just can't get over those flower clips.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">12.</span> If I was a material I would be fleece. It's so warm. And fleecey.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">13.</span> My super power of choice would be flying.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">14.</span> I want to own a bookshop someday. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">15.</span> This one's the best one. When I'm in the car, sometimes I listen to 40's music on satelite radio. And I pretend that I ride my bike everywhere, and wear a dress all the time. And go to malt shops with my friends where everything is a quarter. And request songs from juke boxes. That sounds awesome.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">16.</span> Man, I wish life was like that.</span><br />
<br />
Wait, that's sixteen things. Oh well. <br />
<br />
Guys, <span style="font-size: large;">I am ready to rock this next part of my life.</span> Permit time, girly slumber parties, stake dances, seminary, high school, Disney movie nights.<br />

Whoo!<br />
<br />
I feel like there should be a picture here that relates to this post so here is Taylor Swift's list of 13 happy things. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img alt="Pinned Image" height="400" id="pinCloseupImage" src="http://media-cache-ec6.pinterest.com/upload/137641332331019840_TnB60B98_c.jpg" width="303" /></div>
<br />
Geddit? 13 things? 20<em><strong>13</strong></em>? How serendipitous. (Thumbs up for Nicole using big vocabulary.)<br />
<br />
This totally relates to the post, I promise.<br />
<br />
Because my goal for this new year is to change my attitude. <span style="font-size: large;">This year, I'm going to be happy.</span><br />
<br />
Sometime last year, I read a book called <span style="font-size: large;">"How to be Totally Miserable"</span> by John Bytheway. It's a great book. Probably one of the best self-hinder books out there. At the end there's a list of all the main points.<br />
<br />
- Worry about things you can't control<br />
- Complain about your blessings<br />
- Think about yourself<br />
- Relive bad memories<br />
- Put yourself down<br />
- Don't set goals<br />
- Hold on to grudges<br />
- Always want more<br />
- Don't learn anything new<br />
- Don't sing<br />
- Don't smile<br />
- Don't laugh<br />
- Take counsel from your fears<br />
- Avoid adventure<br />
<br />
(These are just a few. John considerately reminds us to "review this list from time to time to remain a permanent resident of the pit of despair.")<br />
<br />
This book made me laugh, and it was a awesome inspiration for me to start living a little better. <br />
<br />
But I just realized as I picked up this book again today--we do these things every day. How often to we think about ourselves instead of others? How often to we put ourselves down? Hold on to grudges? Worry? Complain?<br />
<br />
Are we aware that these things are sooner or later going to make us miserable?<br />
<br />
I mean--<span style="font-size: large;">who wants to be miserable?</span><br />
<br />
Now. Everybody makes mistakes. It's impossible to be a non-stop ray of sunshine. At least for me. But we've gotta realize that we have the power to change our own lives. We create our own happiness. <br />
<br />
One of my new favorite hymns, "Have I Done Any Good" is all about sharing happiness with others. <br />
<br />
<div class="poetry">
<span style="color: #bf9000;">Have I done any good in the world today?<br />Have I helped
anyone in need?<br />Have I cheered up the sad and made someone feel glad?<br />If
not, I have failed indeed.</span><br />
<span style="color: #bf9000;">Has anyone’s burden been lighter today<br />Because
I was willing to share?<br />Have the sick and the weary been helped on their
way?<br />When they needed my help was I there?</span><br />
<span style="color: #bf9000;"> </span><span style="color: #bf9000;"><br />Then wake up and do something more<br />Than dream of
your mansion above.<br />Doing good is a pleasure, a joy beyond measure,<br />A
blessing of duty and love.</span></div>
<div class="poetry">
<span style="color: #bf9000;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #bf9000;">There are chances for work all around just
now,</span><br />
<span style="color: #bf9000;">Opportunities right in our way.<br />Do not let them pass by, saying,
“Sometime I’ll try,”<br />But go and do something today.</span><br />
<span style="color: #bf9000;">’Tis noble of man to
work and to give;<br />Love’s labor has merit alone.<br />Only he who does something
helps others to live.<br />To God each good work will be known.</span><br />
<em></em> </div>
And if you haven't seen this awesomely awesome rendition of this song that I have already posted once on this blog and am posting again because it is so awesome, DO WATCH.<br />
<br />
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" frameborder="0" height="225" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/aIeA_5yYgB4?rel=0" width="400"></iframe>
<br />
<br />
A couple parts of this song really stand out to me. "Have I cheered up the sad, or made someone feel glad? / If not I have failed indeed." Do I want to fail? Heck, no! I want to succeed, please. And I can do that by sharing my light. By being a friend. By sitting next to the lonely girl at lunch. By smiling at some stranger in the hallway at school. <br />
<br />
And just because this has been floating around in my head, I'll put in out there. No matter how many times girls get told this, we always seem to forget--popularity does not make you happy. You're always going to be so worried about being liked by everyone that you forget to be yourself. Guys, I'm about to blow your minds. How popular you are in high school <em>doesn't matter</em>. (I bet at least one of you just passed out on the spot.) It's so much easier just to not care. If you don't think about how much people like you, you'll like yourself. And when you have confidence in yourself, you're gonna be happier. <br />
<br />
Something else I love: "So go and do something today." We can't postpone being happy. We can't say, "Oh, I'll start being nice to her sometime" or "I'm just having a bad day, I'll be in a good mood tomorrow" or ANYTHING like that. <span style="font-size: large;">Today is the day.</span> And that is why I have made this list for myself. <br />
<br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size: x-large;">Nicole's List of Ways She Can Be Happy and Do Good in the World</span> </strong><br />
<br />
(Snappy title, huh? I think so too.)<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #bf9000; font-size: large;">1. Get to bed before 9:30.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">2. Keep a journal of good things that happen and funny things people say.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">3. Say a prayer before you read your scriptures.</span> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">4. Tell your sister, "I love you."</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #bf9000; font-size: large;">5. Spend more time outside.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">6. Keep. Your. Room. Clean.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">7. Leave notes on your friends' lockers.</span> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">8. Never have a boyfriend in high school. In fact, never choose a boy over your girlfriends. Ever. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">9. No more Z100. Or Google images.</span> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">10. Don't let the little things annoy you, and never be offended. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #bf9000; font-size: large;">11. Remove the word "jealousy." From. Your. Vocabulary.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">12. If you think a bad/judgemental thought about somebody, think of three more good things about them instead. This includes yourself.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #bf9000; font-size: large;">13. Smile at everyone.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
There's nothing too amazing on here. Nothing like "share the gospel with at least 10 people this year" or "run 3 miles everyday after school" or "complete your Personal Progress" because I don't think I could do that. I'd just get discouraged and miserable. Some of my goals are harder than others. But I know that <em>I can do every single one of them</em>. They're small. <span style="font-size: large;">But that doesn't matter.</span> Because it's the little things that we do consistently that really shape our character. <br />
<br />
Am I gonna be perfect? *Hang on I'm laughing* *Okay, I'm done* No. No way. But I can still do the best that I can. Because as Brooke said in <a href="http://brookelee13.blogspot.com/2013/01/my-statement-for-2013.html">her new year's statement</a>, as time goes on, goals change from something you're trying to achieve to something that you become.<br />
<br />
So guys, let's turn our attitudes around this year. <br />
<br />
Get excited about stuff. Don't think about your problems. Believe you can change things. Be grateful. Don't worry about things you can't control. Count your blessings. Don't listen to your fears. Think about others. Be forgiving. Live in the present. Look to the future. Be confident. Be content. Set goals. Learn. Sing. Smile. Laugh. <br />
<br />
In 2013, <span style="font-size: x-large;">let's be happy.</span> <br />

Opening night for our musical, "Annie Get Your Gun" was last night! Oh. MY. <span style="font-size: large;">GOSH!</span> I don't think I've ever been so pumped up in my whole life! It was incredible! It's been such an awesome experience preparing for it, and we're finally performing! <br />
<br />
And I owe it all to my dear friend Brooke. Without her, I never would've even auditioned for this. I'm so glad I have friends that love me! (Thanks Brooke. Nicole loves you.)<br />
<br />
So come and see it! <strong>November 9, 10, 16 & 17 @ 7:00, Molalla High School auditorium</strong><br />
<br />
Wish us luck tonight! :D<br />
<br />
<br />
Okay, so, I never have bad hair days. I always thought that kind terminology was only for the girly and the dramatic. But yesterday I had one. It was awful, no joke. My hair felt so gross. And I wouldn't have cared all that much except I had to leave for a funeral in fifteen minutes. But good news, everyone. I figured out how to fix. You ready? So I have these flower hair clips one of my YW's leaders made me. If you pull all your hair back in a pony or a bun with a thick headband, and then clip one of the flowers behind your ear and wear matching earrings, you look like a doll. Can you picture it in your head? Picture it in your head. Seriously guys, it looked so cute, I wish I had a photo of it. <br />
<br />
While we're on the subject of random awesome things, if any of you care, I found some excuses to paint for school. Whenever there's a poster due for a class, I'm the first one to volunteer for the artisticky part (imagine that). One of the posters was for Hollywood themed homecoming, where our homeroom was assigned the movie Titanic. The other was for Spanish class.<br />

<br />
That's right, baby. We had to choose something or someone to describe fully in Spanish (clothes, traits, likes, dislikes, etc.) and we chose Rapunzel. Can't get much cooler than this.<br />
<br />
<em>Rapunzel le gusta pintar y cantar y bailar. Ella lleva un vestido morado y no zapatos. Ella tiene el pelo largo y rubio. Los ojos de ella son verdes y grandes. Rapunzel es muy bonita y muy simpatica.</em><br />
<br />
Dang, I'm good.<br />
<br />
I mean...<em>Soy bien</em>.<br />

Oh, wait! Speaking of homecoming (because I was talking about it in my head), I went to it! Pictures coming soon!!<br />

<br />
I had the incredible opportunity to go to <strong><span style="color: #ea9999; font-size: large;">Time-Out for Girls</span></strong> with one of my best friends. Basically, we got to listen to these amazing famous LDS speakers sing and give inspiring talks. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuu2RHMX0_U3B_zswwV1RwqAE-t_kWYlV2mEEbipF_sI92sW3Zmy5EjrScGcE7pOva3l4ytwqAw0rQYJgjWcccO9Zwq2bdLL3GABRKZH5oXhyUSSDiVCnjWcrXJATXRL-iDPvWAH4gVwnq/s1600/tofg_header.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="151" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuu2RHMX0_U3B_zswwV1RwqAE-t_kWYlV2mEEbipF_sI92sW3Zmy5EjrScGcE7pOva3l4ytwqAw0rQYJgjWcccO9Zwq2bdLL3GABRKZH5oXhyUSSDiVCnjWcrXJATXRL-iDPvWAH4gVwnq/s400/tofg_header.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
It was awesome. (And I mean that--It. Was. Awesome. Not awesome like the new Taylor Swift CD, or the Avengers, or the frozen burrito I had for lunch. Think about the word "awesome." It means something that inspires awe. Human beings should not throw around this word so carelessly unless the thing you're describing is really that awesome. <strong>This is one of those times</strong>.)<br />
<br />
Prepare to be blown away. <br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">John Bytheway was there</span>. Like, the <em><strong>real John Bytheway</strong></em>. The hilarious and inspiring author of three of my very favorite books? The one who remixed Popcorn Popping on the Apricot Trees? Yeah. That was awesome. He is awesome. <br />
<br />
Kris Blecher and John Hilton III were also there. John was pretty hilarious too. He talked about getting personal revelation by searching the scriptures. (But when you're mad at someone and you're seeking for peace, and you open up to a scripture that says "slay him" don't do it. Remember to <em>apply</em> the verse correctly.)<br />
<br />
Okay. Prepare to be blown away AGAIN.<br />
<br />
My friend Brooke just introduced me to this really cool video by Carmen Rasmusen Herbert and Alex Boye. Watch. Inspire yourself. <br />

Look! There I am next to a Season 2 American Idol finalist who also happens to be an amazing Latter-Day Saint woman! She is so awesome! I love how even in Hollywood, with all those negative influences around her trying to get her to compromise her standards, she stood firm. She talked about how true beauty isn't on the outside, but on the inside.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://deseretbook.com/images/tofw/tofg/Sandra_Turley.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://deseretbook.com/images/tofw/tofg/Sandra_Turley.jpg" width="117" /></a>You know who else I got to meet? <strong><span style="font-size: large;">SANDRA TURLEY</span></strong>. She's a Broadway star who performed in Les Miserables. She was such inspiring speaker. She also didn't give in to the world trying to get her to do things against what she knew was right. Besides that, she has an incredible voice. Like, seriously. This girl was <em>born</em> to be on Broadway.<br />

<br />
I admire both of these women because even though they were famous, they decided to end their careers and start families. Carmen said while we were there, "Fame and fortune do not hold a candle to faith and family." I love that. Nothing is more important than faith and family. We want to become who God wants us to be, not what the world does.<br />
<br />
One of my favorite parts of the whole day was at the very end when Carmen and Sandra sand "For Good" from Wicked. That song is so special to me, I couldn't believe it when I heard the song starting! Both of them have gorgeous voices and strong spirits, and I hope someday I can be like them.<br />

It's purple, wild violet scented. It reminds me of when I was little. I think I got it for my sixth birthday. I don't even remember who gave it to me, but I remember that I loved it. I haven't used it in years, because I don't want it to run out. I want to remember the smell. It's silly, but it brings back memories. <br />
<br />
By the time I was ready for bed, it was about 11 at night. It's Friday. I probably should've gone to bed. But I didn't. I don't know why. I was really tired. Instead, I started going around the house looking for books that I remember being read to me when I was really little. Don't ask me why, because I don't know. I tried to be quiet because all my little siblings were asleep. I couldn't find "The Country Mouse and the City Mouse" or "The Velveteen Rabbit," but I did find these:<br />
<br />
"Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" by Iza Trapani<br />
"Frog and Toad" by Arnold Lobel<br />
"The Giving Tree" by Shel Silverstein<br />
"The Mouse Who Wanted to Marry" by Doris Orgel<br />
"Commotion in the Ocean" by Giles Andreae<br />
"Where the Wild Things Are" by Maurice Sendak<br />
"Love You Forever" by Robert Munsch<br />
<br />
I gathered them all together on my bed and I turned on the lamp, and I read them. Some of them I read cover to cover, and some of them I just looked at the pictures and smiled. <br />
<br />
I picked up the last one, "Love You Forever" and I stared at the cover for a long time. I remembered this one the most. <br />
<br />
I began to read. The story is about a mother who loves her baby son very much. As the little boy gets older, every night his mom still sings him this song when he's alseep:<br />
<br />
I'll love you forever, <br />
I'll like you for always,<br />
As long as I'm living,<br />
My baby you'll be.<br />
<br />
I read every word and looked at all the pictures and thought of my mom and my dad. My mom used to read me this book over and over. It's such a little tiny thing but I'm so grateful she did.<br />
<br />
When I got to page 24, when the mother is old, and tries to sing it to her son who's all grown up now, I surprised myself. <br />
<br />
I started to cry. <br />
<br />
I turn the page, and I'm at the part where the grown up boy cradles his mom in his arms and sings her the song. I'm sobbing now.<br />
<br />
I finished the book, and I just laid in my bed and cried. I don't know why. Sometimes people cry when they're sad. Sometimes people cry when they're happy. Sometimes people cry for no reason. Especially girls. I don't know what reason I was crying for, but I promised myself that I would read that book to my kid every night when I have one, and then when they grow up, I'm going to give it to them.<br />
<br />
My parents probably have no idea how much that book means to me, or that bottle of perfume, or eating graham crackers with peanut butter and milk, or Dad reading The Alchemist to us every summer, or his soundtrack by a Spanish singer named Laura Pausini he plays in the living room stereo every so often. All of them just give me a warm nostalgic feeling.<br />
<br />
I pulled myself together, took my contacts out, laid in bed for a while. I thought about memories, and how special they are. I thought about my family, and I thought about the rest of my life. Then I turned out the lamp and fell asleep to my dad's Spanish CD.<br />

Hehehe. I thought people only did this in movies.<br />

<br />
<strong><span style="font-size: large;">2. I started a novel.</span></strong><br />
<br />
Yeah, that's right. I started a novel. It's going great, thanks for asking. <br />
<br />
I like writing. Most of the time, I just write to write, which results in multiple abandoned Microsoft Word documents full of exerpts of wannabe-novels that are going nowhere because they have no plot behind them. <span style="font-size: large;">But THIS TIME I have a plot.</span> <br />

Go me! However, if I get any comments in the comment section of this post that sound remotely like this...<br />
<br />
"Ooh, you're writing a novel? What's it about??"<br />
<br />
...I will probably make a face that looks similar to this...<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">One does not simply tell people what they write about,</span> or walk into Mordor. Silly goose.<br />

I'll give you the first word, though, just because I'm in a good mood.<br />

<strong><span style="font-size: large;">3. I started the Harry Potter series. Again. For the third time.</span></strong><br />
<br />
I really wanted to read a lot of books this summer. I did, I promise. Unfortunately, that didn't really happen. I thought about reading a lot. But that's all I really did. I thought about it. Every time I picked up a book, I would get bored, and do something else for a while with my time. Finally I just had to face the dreaded truth that I was in a reading slump. <br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I hate reading slumps.</span><br />
<br />
So then, I did the only thing I thought would help me get out of this slowly state. <br />
<br />
I picked up the good ol' Harry Potter books again. For the third time. Because this series is just too awesome to be read just once. Or twice, for that matter. Hopefully, this will bring me back into the reading world.<br />

<strong><span style="font-size: large;">4. I hiked around in intense heat wearing pioneer clothes for a week.</span></strong><br />
<br />
Definitely one of the highlights of my summer. Allow me to explain.<br />
<br />
In our church, every four years we do something called a Pioneer Trek where we dress like pioneers and pack belongings in a 5 gallon bucket and pull handcarts in the local desert for a couple days to reinact a little of what the pioneers crossing the plains had to go through. And that is most definitely a run-on sentence, but I'm leaving it like it is. This year we called our adventure "The Rescue" because prior to the trek we were asked to research a deceased ancestor that we would later perform temple work for. <br />
<br />
It was a really special, spiritual experience, something I'll never forget.<br />
<br />

Here's a picture of our handcart company. You can feel the heat just looking at it, can't you? Yeah, me too. Don't worry, the watermelon, trees, and sprinklers at the end in Zion were definitely worth it.<br />
<br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size: large;">5. I brushed up on my Disney Classics.</span></strong><br />
<br />
Why aren't all movies like Disney Classics and The Avengers? I don't know either. <br />
<br />
This summer, I watched Beauty and the Beast, Mulan, and Aladdin for the first time in a really long time. I plan to watch Tarzan again with my friend who has been deprived her entire childhood and has not seen it.<br />
<br />
I love Disney movies. So much.<br />
<br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size: large;">6. I took lots and lots and lots of pictures.</span></strong><br />
<br />
Here are a few of my favorites. <em>(All photos (C) Nicole Pederson 2012.)</em> Man, something about just being able to copyright something...just makes you feel all powerful and stuff.<br />

<strong><span style="font-size: large;">7. I saw the coolest shooting star I will probably ever see in my life.</span></strong><br />
<br />
Out in our backyard in the middle of the night, we went out to watch the most epic meteor shower I've ever seen. The shooting stars stretched across the sky, with thick, long, white tails... (I feel a poem coming on or something.)<br />
<br />
The biggest one was my favorite. It stretched across the entire night sky, and you could see the particles at the tip turn orange from breaking up in the atmosphere. It was so long, Mom said, "Kurt, look at that!" and when he looked up, he could still see it shooting across the sky. It was gorgeous.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I made some pretty good wishes that night.</span><br />
<br />

<br />
My summer has been amazing. But, to quote Isaiah Mustafa, <br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">"Like all great things, this too must end. There's giant oaks that need chain-sawing into yacht boats. Bermuda Triangle mysteries that need solving with huge magnifying glasses. And everyone knows I could use one or twelve medals for winning exotic car throwing competitions. I must ride my jet-ski line into the sunset."</span><br />
<br />
The sunset being a metaphor for high school. <br />

My aunt Liane's sister, <a href="http://blackbirdinmywindow.blogspot.com/">Rachel McClellan</a>, author of an awesome book called <em><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Fractured-Light-Rachel-McClellan/dp/1599559420">Fractured Light</a></em> came to stay next door to us. As a mutual activity, she came to speak to our Young Women's group about becoming our own superheroes. (Double awesome. Meeting author. Who is also a superhero.)<br />
<br />
She started out with this awesome quote by Marianne Williamson:<br />
<br />
"We ask ourselves, <span style="font-size: large;">who am I</span> to be <strong>brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous</strong>? Actually, <span style="font-size: large;"><em>who are you not to be?</em></span>"<br />
<br />
She told us that we have this light inside of us that we need to use to help, uplift, and serve others. Our <span style="font-size: large;"><strong>SUPERPOWER</strong></span>. (I know, right?!) In order to use our power for good, we have to be unselfish, not judging, have a desire to serve, and be courageous.<br />
<br />
Imagine Superman, she told us, sitting in a diner, eating his enchilada soup. What if he was selfish? What if he judged others? What if he didn't <em>want</em> to help the people outside who were being chased by that giant robot? What if he was too <em>afraid</em> to save them? Would he be a superhero? "Of course not," Rachel said, "He wouldn't be a superhero. He's just a really good looking guy in a cape and tights."<br />
<br />
Even Superman, with all of his strength, talents, and abilities, wouldn't be anything if he was selfish, judging, and afraid.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">But he is a superhero</span>. And those good qualities, being <span style="font-size: large;"><strong>selfless, courageous, brave, kind</strong></span>...we need to be all those things if we want to become our <em><span style="font-size: large;">own superheroes</span></em>.<br />
<br />
Rachel's an author. She knows that people, like characters, have flaws. Nobody's perfect. But we need to be the best that we can be so that we can be <span style="font-size: x-large;">the heroes of our own stories</span>.<br />
<br />
So guess what, guys? I'm not the only hero around here.<br />
<br />

I always just feel so strong and empowered when I come back from camp, and this year was the best yet. <br />
<br />
We were divided into cabin groups, and each group represented a YW value, <em><span style="color: #999999;">faith</span>, <span style="color: #0b5394;">divine nature</span>, <span style="color: #990000;">individual worth</span>, <span style="color: #38761d;">knowledge</span>, <span style="color: #b45f06;">choice & accountability</span>, <span style="color: #f1c232;">good works</span>, <span style="color: #674ea7;">integrity</span></em> or <span style="color: #bf9000;"><em>virtue</em></span>. The group I was in was the only group that didn't get one of these values--we got the value of <strong><span style="color: #c27ba0;">charity</span></strong>. Let me tell you, charity was definitely the theme for our family--I mean group. Did I say family? Well, we <strong>were</strong> a family. We all grew so close, and we loved and trusted each other so much. Each one of those girls I felt like was one of my sisters.<br />

Our theme for this year was <strong>"The Warrior Within"</strong> and the scripture that went with it was <em><strong>"I can do all things through Christ, which strengtheneth me." </strong></em>(Philippians 4:13) This verse means so much to me now that YW's Camp has helped me truly apply it to my life. Jesus Christ is my brother. He died for me. Even if I was his only sister, he still would have died for me. He gives me strenth, and through him, I can do anything.<br />

The campfire songs, the dancing, the laughing, the Bishop's Day activities...those are all fun. But the real reason why I will remember this YW's Camp year is because my testimony grew <strong>so much</strong>. <br />
<br />
One of the pivotal moments ("aha moments" as we liked to call them) for me was during one of our YCL, Hannah's devotional late at night in our A-Frame cabin. We just started talking about <em>everything</em>, about where we came from, why we're here, where we're going. It was inredible. As we sat gathered around with our flashlights at 11 pm, everything, <strong><em>everything</em></strong> just made sense. You know that feeling? I love that feeling. Everything, for those couple of hours just came together, and for those couple hours, I could see past my worldly problems, I could suddenly see the whole picture. <br />
<br />
Hannah then said something I will never forget: she began talking about our life before we came to earth, where we lived with our Father in Heaven. She said, "He held me, when I was a baby. Just like a dad holds his child in his arms, <em>He held me</em>." She had tears streaming down her face as she kept repeating, "He <em>held</em> me." Pretty soon, I was crying too. Because <strong>I knew it was true</strong>. My Heavenly Father loves me. He probably held me just like Hannah said, and told me that Earth life would be hard, but it I stayed faithful, that I would make it back to Him. I want that so badly. I want to return to Him and have Him smile at me and say, <strong>"You did it."</strong> <br />

We each got to decorate a jar, and I put the word "SHINE" on the front of mine, to help me to always remember to hold up my metaphorical light. After testimony meeting, we split from our cabin groups into our Ward groups and had a mini-get-together with our Bishop from our Ward. Each of us went around the circle and said something we can testify of as we held our jars in our hands. The Spirit was so strong.<br />
<br />
<br />
This year at YW's Camp was incredible. I made so many awesome girls that I feel like I can call my sisters, my testimony grew tremendously. I hope that I will have the courage and faith to stand up for what I know is right, <strong>even if I stand alone</strong>. Because <em>I cannot have fear if I have faith</em>.<br />

I graduated from 8th grade. I'm leaving my little school with all of my wonderful and supportive friends and teachers. I'll never walk the campus there as a student ever again.<br />
<br />
These past three years at MRA have been the journey of a lifetime for me. I’ve met so many wonderful friends, so many awesome teachers, and had experiences that I know I’ll never forget. I’ve never felt so passionately about a school and the people in it, that I don’t even think I can call it just a school. It’s like a second home.<br />

Yesterday I graduated, as a part of the first ever graduating class at Molalla River Academy. Today I am a freshman. <br />
<br />
At graduation, one of my very best friends, Brooke, and I sang the song "For Good" from the musical <em>Wicked</em>. The song fits my experience with everyone at this school perfectly. <br />
<br />
<br />This group of adults right here have inspired me so much throughout this year. I'm so lucky to have had them as my teachers--they have definitely changed me for the better in ways that I can't really explain. They helped me develop my love for learning. They helped me find myself.<br />

It’s a song about my friends at this school. Is it cheesy? Yes. But I like it anyway. It reminds me of how MRA taught me how to be a true friend.</div>
<div class="text">
<br />
I will never, ever forget the feeling that I got after I sang this song to a group of my closest friends. On the very last note, my voice broke because of the lump in my throat. When I looked over, the friend who was sitting on the piano bench next to me had tears streaming down her face. Pretty soon, I was crying too because I knew we all felt the same way about each other. We’re sisters. And no matter what, we’ll always be there for each other, no matter where we go.</div>
<div class="text">
<br />
So thank you, Molalla River Academy for giving me the best three years ever. I love you. I’ll miss you. And no matter what—I will <em>always</em> remember you. And because of you, the experiences I've had and the people I've met along the way, I have been changed for good.<br />
