importance

I haven't really been writing much on here - especially since I'm constantly thinking about something. Usually I end up shrugging it off, though. First and foremost my accounting class is offically over! Can I just say hallelujah? HALLELUJAH! It's been taking over my life, literally. I've forgotten about my other classes. I'm just finishing up some loose ends in the class with assignments and one more test tomorrow and hopefully a decent grade. To reward myself I am going to head down south to Phoenix on Friday morning and I'm pretty sure I am SO ready for the 80 degree weather. Get me outta here. Hopefully catch up on some sleep while I am down there, too. Lately, I don't know what it is.. but I am tired all the time. I guess the 3-4 hours of sleep I get a night just aren't cutting it. Then I come home and take the most random naps. Like my 3 hour nap I took Saturday. I DON'T TAKE NAPS. Anywho I've have the biggest travel bug lately, I'm constantly looking for different trips to take. I've been thinking about this summer and the time I have to take off of work. I really want to take a week or so out of my summer and do a humanitarian trip to a different country.

I've been putting a lot of time into thinking about how I can get involved in different things. Take the time off of myself and put it on someone else. Mostly just get my priorities straight. I'm really wanting to stay busy with certain things and not really have time to sit and focus on my phone or the internet. (which I'm starting to get better with my phone) I've thought time and time again to just deactivate my Facebook for awhile because I literally find myself 30 comments in on a conversation that I don't care about nor even know the person. It's kind of ridiculous. Or the 1283802 posts a day about everyone wanting a boyfriend or a girlfriend - kinda can't take it anymore. Yet I can't get myself to deactivate... ah. Technology. So I figure if I start putting some service and time in other things and perhaps go to school more often to study I might be more productive. We will see how it goes.

I just think it's really important to really find what is most important to you.  No matter what it is. I've noticed a big change in myself over the last few months and I'm starting to like who I am, however, as I said before I need to kind of get my priorities in line. Not that I don't do what's right and so forth but just put emphasis on the things that are the most important to me. I've really become such a stronger person and I am proud. I've held my ground and I've finally come to the point of understanding that my values are a huge part of who I am and I'm  not chaning them. Everyone around me that really knows who I am has also seen the same change. They're constantly reminding me about how strong I truly I am. Not that anyone has really ever doubted me, but you know people tend to put a certain perception about you because of how you were for so long. I've always been strong but not so good at standing my ground. I use to be so concerned about what people would  say to me or think but I honestly can say for the most part - I don't care anymore. Let people think what they want to think, as long as you know who you are and what you stand for... you're golden.

Ah this song... I know I love it just as much as the next person, but this song really hits home for me. Not because of the killer beat, but because of the realistic lyrics it plays in my life. It's amazing. Amazing.
