Three Coins In The Fountain

First, I'd like to thank my dad for igniting my love of Frank Sinatra. Ol' Blue Eyes can brighten any moment.

Sometimes I wish I was still unemployed, because my goal while I was unemployed was to do a little soul searching. Well, I didn't really get too far on that! It's so weird because I'm graduated from college, I've had a grown-up job, I'm married, and I still feel like I'm growing up and learning about myself. But, I am only 23...so that's okay, right?

It's interesting how one can accomplish the aforementioned things, but still feel like a little girl in the big world. I wonder, how could I commit myself completely to one man, when I'm still trying to figure out who I am? Love is good and love is complex. I am grateful that I can love and grow simultaneously. =)

I have some major life experiences ahead of me. I've been so worried about what my reaction will be, that I'm kind of freezing up. My dear Josh gave me some smart advice, and from that, this is what I have learned:

LIVE YOUR LIFE!

If you're going to learn anything, you have to live. You have to give yourself the chance to be yourself. Experience is the proving ground... so I'm just going to let myself EXPERIENCE and FEEL. And see what happens!

Here's a fabulous piece of advice that I've carried with me: In high school, my friend and I went to see a play that our friends were in-- "The Laramie Project." I don't know if you know the story of Matthew Shepard, but that is what this play is all about. It was an amazing show; my friends weren't my friends, they were the characters. Both my friend and I were pretty emotional after it, but a lot of the people around us were not so much. We felt kind of weird, and I think we even cried about the play again in the car when her mom was driving us home. She turned around and she said to us, "Don't ever be embarrased to show that something touched you." And I was like, "YEAH!" And I've tried to live that ever since.

So, there's my to do list. =)

Song Recommendation:

"The Only Promise That Remains" Reba McEntire feat. Justin Timberlake

P.S. The highlight of the Taylor Swift concert was her song "You're Not Sorry" which she smooshed wth JT's "What Goes Around." It was bangin'!

Blogging It Up

So, I guess this is like a second beginning to this blog o' mine. Or maybe the real beginning!
Life is good!

I have a new job! But this evening, I found myself missing The 23rd Floor. That was a great job and my girls were the best. We had a great time. The Davis County Fair is fab in it's own way, but I don't know if I'll ever have a job like The 23rd Floor again. But it's fine organizing entertainment and trying to find new stuff to put into the fair. And so far they like me and they think I'm doing a good job!



Josh is keepin' it real at POUNDCAKE'S! GO THERE! The food is great!!!



I just read The Lovely Bones and I highly recommend it! I couldn't put it down. Recently I've also read Revolutionary Road, The Secret Life of Bees, and The Reader. Do you know notice a theme here? All of these have been made into movies, and even the Lovely Bones is going to come out in theaters in December. Do I know how to pick 'em or what?


On that note Star Trek was GREAT! But I am sad that I forgot to wear my Star Trek shirt. Maybe I'll just wear it tomorrow for kicks. The movie is over 2 hours, but it just flew by, and I never found myself thinking "When is this gonna end?" That, my friends, is the sign of a great movie.
Now, I must indulge in my guilty pleasure: 90210.

"Loving you is easy cuz your beautiful..."
