p.s. i am obsessed.

Aside from going to class, doing homework, and all the other normal college life stuff, I have become completely enamored with this band. I know, right? They're called Eisley. If someone were to ask me right now what I could not go without for one day... I would say sleep, and then I would say the music from this band.

Man, I want to be them.

Colorado is really the best place in the world

It is really not fair that we don't appreciate where we are or what we have until we're no longer there or whatever the thing was is gone. Most recently, it's little ol' Colorado. I have realized, that place is really my home. It is where my family is, my friends, my memories from earliest to recent. No where else in the world do I have such an attachment. I used to tell myself I would never live in Colorado when I got older. But now I want more than anything to find someone that will want to raise a family with me there. I used to complain about the weather all the time, but now I actually miss it.
I love telling people I am from Colorado too. I find myself often saying, "In Colorado this would happen...", or, "People in Colorado are like this...", and even, "Well that's not how we do it in Colorado". I would not be surprised if people were sick of it, but I don't care. I love that it's a part of me. I hope it always is.

All in all, I miss you Colorado.

Everyone Should Have a Carly

I am not sure the exact way to get your hands on one, but i say, when the opportunity arrives, take it. It has been my experience that a Carly is the best kind of friend out there and is, more often than not, like a sister. It would seem she is trained to be there at any time needed whether it be for comfort or just helping you remember to smile. I do not know how it's done, but she also has an enhanced understanding of when to let an individual be alone in their thoughts: she never pries into anything you may not feel like talking about. She always lets you come to her. and when you do, man is she a big help. I mean, advice or answering questions you're too afraid to go ask someone else, she is really handy for that kind of stuff.

Some other pluses-
She will sing with you if you want, and she never makes fun if you are not perfect. She'll let you borrow her clothes too. Unfortunately, I do not think it possible to find another Carly as funny as mine, or as pretty for that matter. So that's a bummer for you reading this. I'd also be surprised if your Carly came with all the same great attachments mine did. For example, the greatest grandparents I could ask for, and tons of other people to look up to and admire that even let me call them family.

I do not know all who were involved in setting me up with a Carly, I think it was mostly Heavenly Father. So, thanks a million, God. I really do not know what I'd do without her. Good luck to all you trying to find one, I'm telling you it's worth it.
