Free Time

Today is one of those days that I just want to spend doing something.

I want to go to a cafe or a bookstore, find some classic literature, and go curl up in a corner and read all day.

I want to curl up with Netflix and watch my British TV shows.

I want to lay in the sun and get tan.

I want to go swimming.

I want to go to the beach.

I want California and Utah to combine.

Basically, I just want SUMMER.


In six days I will be walking at graduation, and I will be finished at LDS Business College.

That's crazy! My life has been LDSBC for the past two years. I've always been at school or waiting to go back. Now I'm done. It's extremely bittersweet for me. I have adored my time here, and I have made more memories than I could imagine. I've grown up here. I've lived here.

When one door closes, another door opens. I'm going to be spending my first summer away from home. I'm working at a great job, and I am in love with it. I've got the greatest summer posse set up, and I've got the best cousins a girl could ask for.

My future is nothing but hope. Hope and a lot of laughter.

God is good. Life is great.

Everybody love everybody,

M.D.


P.S. Tuesday I went to my first concert, and it was none other than YOUNG THE GIANT. Sorry, they just make me really excited. It was phenomenal. I've never had a better time in my life. It was a delicious experience. I can't wait for more concerts! But I'll leave you with some pictures. I got extremely camera-happy, and the pictures are mostly of Sameer Gadhia...but can you blame me? The man is a musical god with a voice of pure joy. That is all.

 This guy is not in the band, he was a sound tech, but with a 'stache like that I'd definitely be his friend.

YTG

I loved the way YTG had their lights set up. 

Sameer!

May or may not be my phone background...

Sameer shakes his butt when he dances.

Freaking favorite voice in the world.

Speaking of butts, I touched his when he crowd-surfed. I am extremely proud of myself for that one.

This was Grouplove, the first band to play. They were awesome too. Super energetic, they can all sing, and they had such a great energy. I loved watching them!

Grouplove again, The lead singer's hair was interesting to watch, because as he got hotter, his hair got bigger. I just want to touch it.

That's all folks! I actually have about 40 more pictures, but I didn't want to bore you all.

Much love.

Highs and Lows?

So basically, around Saturdays I am going to post highlights and low points of my week, summarize, and maybe throw in some fun pictures as well. I don't really know what to call it though. Highs and Lows? Ups and Downs? Yays and Nays? Thumbs Up, Thumbs Down? Really, there's a lot of options at my fingertips. The name will come later.

Low points this week:

Not sleeping enough. 

This happens every week, but especially since I started working. I have school full-time and now work almost full-time too. Plus it's the end of the semester/end of my two year degree/graduation/I-don't-exactly-know-what-I'm-doing-with-my-life time. No big.

Having my best friend roughly 6,000 miles away. 

I'm really supportive of missions. They're great! But for other people. I, am a selfish person. I want my people close by! I am so proud of that poopsicle though. So I guess he can stay for the 98 more weeks. Not that I'm counting or anything. 

Not getting an email from said best friend. NO PRESSURE.

Ok sweetie, I know you're a missionary right now. But I took the precious time to send you an email, niggs, you best respond! You know I can cut you, even if you're in South America, Captain Jazzy.

Not talking to someone in my family for two weeks.

Having really hot guys come in to work.

This is a high and low. High, cuz hello...hot men. There are so many beautiful businessmen and office workers, and gay guys, and well dressed men. But it's a low point, because I don't see a lot of them again. Or they're married. Then it's just like, "Ok. Get your food and leave so I don't have to be jealous of you and your probably equally adorable wife. Waaaaaahhhhhh." It's worse when cute married couples come in, and worst of all when they have disgustingly cute lil chirren and stuffs. Hurts my ovaries.

Stepping on a mayonnaise packet at work and not noticing. Friggin' nasty.

No really. The only reason I realized it was because my coworker told me and then proceeded to wipe it off for me. She's super nice. I like her.

Having your bff put you on blast in front of your co-workers. Thanks, boo.

Issue was resolved, but for a second there...I looked like a fool.

High points this week:

Getting a job!

Ok, so I got the job like two weeks ago. I don't even care, it's awesome. I truly believe it was a God-given job. I got it on the spot and it's one of the best things that has ever happened to me.

My boo came to visit me!!!!

My boo, Shannon. Yes, she has freaking purple in her hair. She's that legit.

We have way too much fun together.

Sometimes we try to be serious. It never lasts long.

I just love this girl. She's my boo. (:

Shannon Michelle Jessie Hardy arrived here um, yesterday, and since then we have had such good times! YEAH! I had to work today, so she was hanging with some other friends while I was there, but then we had custard, adventured in Wal-mart, and honked at some cute guys. We have such good talks, such good laughs, and such good memories. Especially when we listen to heytells and laugh so hard we start sobbing.

Creating a wolfpack at work.

Gotta have one! Wolfpacks are essential! Thankfully, I quickly gained a good pack. Those boys are just great.

Making friends with a seriously epic ginger.

Oh man. It doesn't even feel like work, because I'm laughing so hard. This kid. So funny, so sassy, so fabulous. We call each other boo and babe, and come up with the best funny things. It's a hard life for two pimps like us.

Realizing that I have completed two years of college.

It doesn't seem like much at times, but it's actually a little bit of a big deal. I'm proud of how far I have come since being 16 and nervous about leaving home. I've worked hard to get where I am and I wouldn't change my life for anything.

Being in love with my job.

I'm kind of obsessed. It's pretty much all I have to talk about. I go in even on my days off and I bring all my friends in. My job completes me. I love it.

Having less than two weeks left of school.

Yeah. That's really happening. I have a cap and gown, and I, Megan, am graduating. Like a big kid. With pull-ups and everything. WOAH.

As hard as life is sometimes, with the ups and downs (or super Mormon cliche sounding "blessings and trials") and struggles and stuff, I'm doing good. I'm far more blessed and better off than I think most of the time. Everything happens for a reason. Patience in life is essential, or you'll go crazy. So, I'm praying for patience and I'm going to just keep swimming.

Everybody love everybody,

M.D.
