My mamma always said life is like a box of chocolates...

Well, I've actually had this blog for several days now, but have not posted yet due to a severe lack of inspiration. I guess it's just a little difficult for me to conjur up any creativity when the majority of my life is lived in a 3 story cement prison under the alias of Southwest High School. The adults at this facility have tried their absolute hardest to convince us that we should take pride in our "school" because it is a wonderful learning institution that by nature is better than all the others in Lincoln. As the sensable person i am, I have refused to buy into any of what they're saying. I'm just thankful there's only 2 years left on my sentence. Perhaps my theory seems a little far-fetched, but today, as I was walking to class with my friend Kara we noticed that the roof of the school was lined with barbed wire...Still unconvinced? That's what I thought!

I could ramble on about about my present state of punishment for the remainder of this blog, but the more i think about it, the more i realize that no one in their right mind would want to live through that, and the majority of you reading this right now(which may in fact be nobody since I have yet to get the word out about my blog) would most likely click the back button on your internet menu and return to whatever it was you were doing before you began reading this.

So, with that said, I think it would be beneficial to lighten the mood a bit and turn our focus to the future...a glorious place outside the confines of Southwest Highschool, and perhaps even Lincoln Nebraska; a place where the possibilities are limitless. In contemplating my options for the future once I've escaped, I created a list of all the things I would like to do in my lifetime. As i'm sure you can imagine, this list only covers but a mere sliver of what I would like to accomplish before I leave this earth, but to record everything; every thought and idea, would be a waste of the precious time i could have otherwise used to check a few things off my list.
Anways, enough of this useless babble...here's the list

-Paint a mural on the side of a building
-Make a documentary
-Make a career out of my music
-Share my testimony in front of a crowd of people
-Visit Prince Edward Island and sleep in a Cherry tree
-Run a marathon and eventually qualify for the boston
-Watch all the Dax Flame Videos
-Become an accomplished classical guitarist and Pianist
-Bring aid to a war-torn country
-Spend a year in Africa and keep a journal of all my drawings and sketches while i'm there
-Write a Biography
-Change someone's life in a profound way
-Publish a book
-Focus on what God wants me to be, not want other people want me to be
-Drink tea in a castle
-Become friends with everyone i meet
-Live each and every moment of my life to God's glory and never hold back!

I hope this means you won't being staying up until all hours posting on your blog playing your guitar. Remember, Mama always said "Life is better with a good night's sleep." That aside, I think your blog is amazing. Very creative and enlightening. Looking forward to future posts.

Your ambitions are ambitious. I would love to see you accomplish them all. With a little focus, I believe that you can. My advice (from one who also has MANY ambitions) choose the one(s) that mean the most to you and set reasonable goals. Some things will fall into place in moments beyond your control. Others will need a little coaxing. You are an amazing girl! Love you!

Natalie,

You are welcome to drop by my house and hang out any time! If you ignore my messy house, you can come unannounced :) Hmm...someday when Tim and I actually go out for a date, I may need a sitter...know anyone who'd be interested?
