No Matter How Hard I Try

Life has been a whirlwind lately. How can one find time to record their thoughts, when they can't even think their thoughts?

It's been a joyful time lately. Really exciting. Really fun. Really emotional. I have been reminded of the precious and protected friendships I've gathered over my years at LSU, and how far deep these girls go into my veins. We are for one another. And feel happy for one another. Sad for one another. and celebrate with each other. They have proven over and over how lucky I am to have walked on to that college campus and into their hearts.

It's also been a crazy time lately. The state of Louisiana has gone haywire. Absolutely bananas. The Saints in the Super Bowl. Now I've admittedly become a Saints fan on the recent bandwagon. I became a fan when I came to LSU, so I can't proclaim the die hard fandom, but the night I spent at the House of Blues in New Orleans celebrating the Saints going to the Super Bowl will forever give me goose bumps. I have never seen more joyful, excited, overwhelmed or happy people in one room. When the ball made it through the goal posts, you would have thought that the center of the earth had erupted. I will remember it for the joy and the for the meaning it has to a city that breathes life into a normally mundane society. And for another reason being from Louisiana is a mark of pride and honor, instead of something to hide.

And oh yeah, I'm getting married in 3 months.
