i've got no way of knowing exactly where i'm going

well. its been a while since i've written a blog, more than ten days. i just haven't really had the time, or known exactly what i should talk about. but here goes.

life is pretty great right now, i have to admit. i miss everyone at the moment, but hopefully that will change soon enough. i haven't seen cosette since tuesday. zakk since wednesday. alyse since that friday we all hung out. carlos since general conference. grant since sometime over the summer probably. katie since that one time i just happened to be at the junction, and she just happened to need oil for her car.

but its all good. there are a few things i'm stressing about, but that i will refrain from mentioning here on cyberspace, or whatever.

my grades are good, i have a 3.6 for once in my life. i have a wonderful boyfriend that i love dearly. the quote by chase coy "and tho it's much too soon to tell, i'm hoping this will last,'' comes to mind. i have amazing friends that i know i can count on. i went to the used concert last weekend, and it was freaking awesome. i love that band. halloween is coming up! woot. i'm excited, even though i have no clue what i'm doing yet, or am going to be. there's still 15 more days to figure that all out, so its all good. its fall, my favorite time of year and the leaves are as gorgeous as ever. i got a hair cut yesterday, due to the fact that i could no longer see because my bangs were way too long. i'm on good terms with everyone in my family. for now anyways...

oh, and i tried this health energy drink stuff yesterday. it was my mom's friend, and her husband is in mona vie. its by mona vie, but its a new kind called EmV. its way good, it almost tastes like cranberries. just thought i'd share that :)

fall break has been pretty alright so far. wednesday afterschool hung out with zakk for a little while, till he had to leave around five or so i think it was? then i watched the proposal with my mommy. its funny. if you haven't seen it yet, i highly reccommend you do. yesterday i went with my mom and little brother to get our hair cut. it took three freaking hours. oh wells. then we got soup from kneaders. their italian cream soda's rock. today... hum. i might see cosette at some point. i was going to try to hang out with katie for a little while, but she works weird hours today, and plus its kyra's birthday, so they already have all these plans.

i got to drive again last night. it was fun. stressful, and kinda scary. but fun. i've only driven three different times, each time for at least ten minutes, and each time with a different car. the first time was in a wal-mart parking lot at one in the morning on the mazda that died a year or so ago. the second time was in the summer around two i think, and it was raining. i drove from one end of traverse mountain to the other, and back again. that was on the mini van. this last time was last night around one, and i just drove around in cedar hills in the residential area near wal-mart. my mom had to help me steer when we were going through the roundabout. i think i almost have the hang of stopping at stop signs...

well, the battery for the camera is done charging now, so i think i'll go take a walk on the trail and try to get some good pictures of the fall leaves. plus the lighting right now is really pretty. i got the title of this blog from the lyrics in a song by ashley parker angel. they're so true, you really have no way of knowing exactly where you're going. anything can change in a matter of hours, minutes, seconds. you never know.

well, happy friday everyone. i hope you all have a fabulous fall break. and thanks for reading.
