I am Learned

Lately, I've been looking back on my life,

and seeing all the things I've done and learned that have shaped me into who I am today.

Things like:

Girls are mean idiots

Boys are mean idiots

Sisters rock

Your parents really do know a lot more than you give them credit for

Love is more powerful than horcruxes

Books are better than movies

Holding hands with boys is nice

Kissing them is nice too

Sometimes crying is ok

Sometimes laughing is better

Sometimes the things that are hardest are the most worthwhile

People die, but goodbyes don't last forever

Best friends are better than dollars

and

Families are the best things in the world.

These are things that I have learned across my entire life. Not all of them have been easy to learn, but I am glad to know them all.

Since I have moved out, and met life head-on here at Utah State, I have learned many more important things about life.

Including:

Boys are still idiots

Anything tastes better when you drink it out of a shot glass

(now don't worry I only drink non-alcoholic shots- usually Dr. Pepper)

Hot Rod is a great movie

It is possible (though not at all recommended) to live solely off of potato chips and ramen noodles

Mice can swim

Jane Austen is always a good idea

Riding from St. George to Las Vegas on the back of a motorcycle is NEVER a good idea.

Even many miles can't sever the strongest friendships

Wal-Mart is easy to memorize

The best Ben&Jerrys ice cream is the strawberry cheesecake

Playing the guitar is lots of fun

500 Days of Summer is the best movie in the world

Happy Meals are just the right size

Bonfires are epic

4 Wheeling is all sorts of fun

Jeeping is too

 Sometimes doing nothing ends up being the most fun

Logan is cold

Swing dancing is the best

Sometimes, you have to do horrible things to sheep

Potato chips, Grapes, and Frosting are a surprisingly delicious combination

Pinterest is ridiculously addictive

Random boys that ask for your number are 87% of the time just total creeps

Aggie Basketball is the best thing ever

Money sucks

Never let the viewing of "Charly" and PMS ever occur at the same time

Boys are afraid of rats

Your roomies will be there for you no matter what

Years go by a lot faster than they did when you were little

Don't take free laundry for granted

Being single is ok

Life is too short to spend it moping

Dancing in the rain is actually a lot of fun

and

Families will always be the best things in the world

The End
