Random Thoughts.

• Chris Daughtry is freaking hot. And he has an INCREDIBLE voice.
• Tyra Banks is probably the funniest woman ever. Actually, that's a lie. She's in second place, behind Ellen DeGeneres.
• Carter really does hate cats.
• Haunted houses are super creepy. I seriously hate them. The one I went on in Las Vegas ruined them for me. I will never step foot in another haunted house again. Not even the stupid ones at amusement parks.
• I love CDs. But even more than that, I love the radio. It drives me crazy that the radio in my car has terrible reception.
• Exorcisms scare me.
• I hate being scared. I hate when people jump at me. I hate the mini heartattacks that happen all the time.
• Don't get me wrong, I love Halloween.. But I really hate all the scary things about it! If you didn't already gather that.
• I think boys who wear glasses are super attractive. Like.. SO hot.
• I don't believe in paranormal activity. I think that spirits pass the veil, and they stay on the other side. This is just my personal opinion.
• (By the way, I'm watching Tyra, so her show is provoking all these thoughts!)
• Thursdays are, in fact, my favorite day of the week. :)
• I can not wait for next weekend!
• I'm kind of glad I don't have Show Choir anymore! I loved it, but it's nice to just chill.

Dear 6:30am.

I hate you. I hate you and your sleepy antics. I also hate your friends Snooze Button and Frost On The Windshield. I don't know what I ever did to offend you, but please get over it and leave me alone!!

Yours truly, Nicole.

Perfect Two - Auburn

I don't know if I could ever be without you, 'cause, boy, you complete me..

And in time, I know that we'll both see that we're all we need.

You're the apple to my pie.

You're the straw to my berry.

You're the smoke to my high.

I'm the 'Queen' to your 'Dairy'.

'Cause you're the one for me, and I'm the one for you; 

Take the both of us,

And we're the perfect two.

nothing to say.

i've been trying to write a blog all day. but i have nothing to say. i'm coming up totally blank. i could write a post on how i used to love weekends, but now i dread them.. but that's not really true. because i DO look forward to them, i just hate having nothing to do. but at the same time, i love having nothing to do. it's time for me. but i'd rather have someone to do nothing with. apparently i am lacking in the 'friends' department, and it's rather boring. ah, well.

So won't you dance with me?

I like that rainbow pair, of gym shoes that you wear.

I like the way you sing and when you dance with me.

I like the face you make and when you dance with me.

I like the rules you break and when you dance with me.

I like the cake you bake and when you dance with me.

I like the chance you take so won't you dance with me?

I SAID GOOD DAY!

I had a Good day. I did a lot of new things, and I learned something new.

First, I learned that I am not ready for motherhood. This was an epiphany I had while watching a 2 year old blow chunks (she missed me!!!) and a 5 year old gag and gag and gag. Ew.

Then, I curled my hair for the first time ever and it turned out super cute!!

Then, I sent my man off to war. But not really. He just has BMQ (Basic Military Qualification) this weekend - and almost every weekend until February 6, 2011.

Advice For Life.

If I could offer you only one tip for the future, smiling would be it. The long-term benefits of smiling are staying young and happy, and brightening someone else's day.

Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth. Dont complain about your body right now because in forty years you'll want it back. Enjoy the smoothness of... your wrinkle-free face, for it won't stay that way for long. You can only be young once so don't waste it trying to act older and more mature.

Dont worry about the future. Dont regret your past. Life is to live it at the moment because, why regret something that already happened or worry about something that may or may not happen? You need to enjoy today because you dont know if you're going to have a tomorrow.


Do one thing everyday that makes you laugh.

Dance.


Dont take other people's heart for granted. Dont let anyone take your heart for granted.


Love.


Dont waste time on jealousy. Jealousy is an endless vicious cycle. Someone will always have something you want and you will always have something someone wants.


Remember all the good memories. Ignore the pain. Once you learn to forgive, you'll be able to forget.


Keep all the meaningful things. Throw away whatever made your heart ache.


Read.


Dont feel guilty if you can't make everyone happy. The only person you should make happy is yourself. Dont let anyone dictate your life; make it as you want it to be.


Take care of yourself. Don't harm your body in any way; physically or mentally.


Maybe you'll marry, maybe you won't. Maybe you'll succeed, maybe you won't. Maybe you'll live your life depressed, maybe you won't. Everything depends in what you want.


Don't be too conceited; you're not better than anyone else. Don't be too modest; no one else is better than you.


Enjoy your body. Don't be afraid of what people might think of you. Your flaws are what make you beautiful.


Sing, even if you're really out of tune.


Listen to people, even if you can't relate because, someday, you'll want to be heard too.


Get to know your parents because, someday when they're gone, you'll wonder who they were.


Be nice to your siblings. When your parents are not there anymore, they're the only family you'll have left.


People come and go in your life, but only a few leave footprints behind. Keep those people close because, as you get older, you begin to realize that it is more important to have REAL friends than a lot of friends.


Love someone, but don't fall for them too hard.


Love someone, but don't let love make you soft.


Play.


Accept certain inalienable truths: people will break your heart, but you'll be able to mend it. You'll fail, but you'll succeed. You'll make mistakes and regret things. But, at the end, you'll realize everything happened for a reason.


Experience new things.


Never count on people because someone someday will disappoint you and, when they do, you won't trust anyone else. Someday you'll find someone you can really count on, but you should still have a mind of your own.


Be careful whose advice you buy, but listen to those who give it. Advice is what makes you think twice about doing things you're not sure about. But, always follow your heart because it will always be right. Keep the advice, though, and share it with others, that way it'll be worth more.


But trust me on smiling.

I love weekends.
I love weekends when I stay up way too late.
I love weekends when I stay up way too late and go to high school football games.
I love weekends when I stay up way too late and go to high school football games and still get excited when Raymond trashes LCI.

I think the thing about being from Raymond is that the Comet pride is forever engrained into every fiber of your being. I am pretty sure that as long as I live close enough, I will attend as many football and basketball games are I possibly can. Not because I know the people playing, or I love hearing the stupid high school girls (sorry to everyone that might take offense to this statement. I now understand that I was one of those girls, and I apologize to everyone who might have hated me because of this.) cheer at the top of their lungs. It's because I love watching MY school win. And I know that everyone who has graduated from Raymond feels the same way! No matter how long ago it might have been!\


Life is good.

Quote of the Day.

Laura Quinton inspired me to do a quote of the day. I mean, I'm not gonna have one every day, so maybe it'll just be a quote of the week? Or of the month? Depends if I find good ones. Anyways, I was looking for some good quotes to scrapbook for Elder Paxman's 20th birthday (I can't believe it!!), and I came across a whole page of Gordon B. Hinckley quotes. One stood out to me.

"Be believing, be happy, don't get discouraged. Things will work out."

This reminds me of my all time favorite quote, by Joseph Smith Jr. - "Never be discouraged. If I were sunk in the lowest pits of Nova Scotia, with the Rocky Mountains piled on me, I would hang on, exercise faith, keep up good courage, and I would come out on top." 

If this man, possibly the most persecuted human being of the last 200 years, had the faith to not get discouraged, why should I (a silly, extremely blessed, fortunate, lucky teenager) become discouraged because I can't make up my mind about while university to attend? because I didn't get all 90%s in my classes in high school? 

I'm going to make a conscious effort to be more believing, more happy, more faithful, more enduring, less discouraged, less frustrated, less annoyed person.

Thing will work out.
