If I Lay Here

Hey everybody! These past couple weeks have been rough for me. I'm sorry for not posting last week. I was in an immense amount of pain and then I got sick, so I kinda forgot about y'all. These past two weeks have been crazy! School has been going as well as can be, with all the craziness. I have to say, the highlights of my week these days have been working in Learning Lab with the littles on Wednesday. That is always so much fun for me because I have a heart for littles and I want to love on them for as long as I can. I had, quite possibly, the best Valentine's ever. Like last year, Bridey was my Valentine, and it was good to just relax and watch a movie with her. I have been listening to a song lately called "Chasing Cars" by Snow Patrol. I absolutely love this song and how much feeling and love there is in it. The lyrics of the chorus really have a special meaning for me, because some days I just want to lie down and forget the world for a while. I'll link the song down below. Anyways, the chorus goes
"If I lay here, if I just lay here, would you lie with me and just forget the world?"
I love to just lie outside and look at the sky when I'm listening to this song and just forget the world and all the problems I am facing. Honestly, I think that may be one of the reasons that God has blessed us with music. I know that praising Him with music is always the ultimate goal, but I feel a lot of comfort from music. Sometimes, even with secular songs that have nothing to do with Christianity, I can feel God and hear His voice in the lyrics, especially if the songs are talking about an intense love for someone. So, I have a question. Would you lie with me and just forget the world? I'd love to just lie down and forget the world for a while. But talking with someone while we forget the world would be so much better. Anyways, that's all I have for this week! 

 Stay Beautiful!

A New Beginning

Well, hello everyone! I'm back! It's been a hot minute, hasn't it? There have been a lot of things that have happened in the past few years, and I would love to catch y'all up on all of them! Let's just get started on the writing, shall we? Fall 2018 Wow, what didn't happen in fall of 2018? Let's see. I was still able to work at the Belcher Center as a student usher, and I really loved my job! It was always so much fun to work with Kurt and the gang. I also was student teaching at Spring Hill Primary here in town. I loved working with the teacher and the kiddos, and I had so much fun every day there. That fall, I also turned 22 and it was such a fun day. The biggest thing that happened that semester, though, was getting my sweet kitty girl Stormy Jane. She's a long-haired tuxedo baby, and she is the best kitty ever. She was so tiny when she showed up on Bridey's front porch, just the size of a three month old kitten. To our great surprise, however, s

Big Step Forward

I took a big step forward today. I went to get a haircut. Now, most people would think that's not a big deal, but I have an irrational fear of barber shops and hair salons. Yesterday, I made it as far as the parking lot before I started having a panic attack. But today, I did it. I got a haircut. I'm really proud of myself, and I know that this is a big step for me. Sorry about not posting last week, I had a date with my daddy that lasted all day. These past two weeks have been pretty good. My class has been going well, and I'm super happy with how it's been going. Season 15 of NCIS has been released on Netflix, and OH MY GOSH MY EMOTIONS!!! I'm going to die. Only 15 days until I leave for my trip! I'm super excited to go to Florida. Like, I'm super ready. Anyways, that's all for this week. Have a good one! Stay beautiful! Marlee

Hey guys. This week has been absolutely horrible, with the exception of Monday evening. Monday evening, Bridey came over, and we celebrated Galentine's Day. It was really fun. She got me the cutest fox EVER! I am absolutely in love with it and have kept it near me all week. I named her Lil' Bit because it's so little and for a personal reason. Dad came home with a bad bug last week, and I caught it. My immune system is down already because I have been sick for so long and homebound, so a simple cold lasted me until just about today. I'm still getting over it. It felt like I had pneumonia or something. I was not a happy camper. On top of that, I had to cancel college night because I am still getting over this thing, and my emotions have been all over the place. I have been really, really depressed these last couple of days. All day, all I have been doing is watching movies and playing video games because I have nothing better to do. I have absolutely no appetite, so I ha
