...A Rain...

To me, its rain right now. It has been raining here in MO for the past couple days and its very fitting. I actually have a playlist of music that is called "Rainy Days & Mondays" based on the song with the same title. There are multiple songs on that play list that deal with one of those two things. Like for example, the songs, "Monday, Monday" by the Mamas and the Papas is on it, as well as "Blue Monday" by Huey Lewis and "Come Monday" by Jimmy Buffet. Of course multiple artist, too many to list, have songs about 'Rain'. So when I am upset or it's Monday and raining outside I listen to that playlist. Life is music, and music equals life. A good cry, writing, and music will go along way for releasing emotions. I have lots to get rid of.

Life is like a lot of thing....

I can write a better post now I am not so tired. Last night I tried to write a short post, but I did not get very far. Soon afterwards I fell asleep in the chair I was sitting in till David woke me up about 20 mins later. After that I went straight to bed and was asleep in minutes. :) It's the end of the semester and I am feeling it. Mentally, emotionally, and to a point physically. See everyday Mon-Fri I get up at 6 am and drive 45 mins to school. I think it is the long driving that is getting to me more than getting up early. Because of where I live in the KC area any school I choose would have been at least a 25-30 min drive. I do enjoy my time at UCM. It is a good school and I have a few people I already know who go there. I don't get to see these people as much as I would like, but it is fun to catch up when we get the chance. One of  them works in the book store so if she working when I am in between classes, we'll talk if she isn't busy.

I often thing about the people at BBC I miss, but I would not change being married for anything. David and I are doing good. It's a learning process for sure, but a fun one. We don't have a very hard time agreeing upon things and it makes life pleasant. Right now David is "teaching me how to game." :) He got me onto the online game World of Warcraft when we were dating. Well now he has built my a computer just for gaming.  He has installed multiple games on my computer for me to play in my spare time Here is some pictures of it. The lower picture is a better view of the light up features it has. Davids case is very similar. Although its black and it glows blue. I would love to write a longer post but I have a 4 page essay to get back to. Cheers!

Life is Like... A Lot of Things

Wow... First post of 2012, and it is already mid April. Where has the time gone? I just spent some time looking at old post from when I started this blog. Wow. I had so much zeal and passion for life, that I have almost forgotten. I still write poetry, and am working on a Christian fictional novel.
I look back at those old post and I wrote, not to gripe and complain, but simply be open and honest about my life and what was going on in my head. Not to bring people down and focus on the negative, but to inspire people to find the best in life. God is bringing some of that zeal and passion back I believe
Life is so busy. I should be graduating this semester id I were to do college in 4 years... However I did it the hardest way possible. Spent the 1st year at home, 2nd-3rd years a BBC in Springfield, then transferred to UCM and got married. Yup... Most complicated way to do it. I have 3 semesters left.
.

Being married has taught me a new level of patience and love.  I have found a new freedom in being married. I am content and loved for and love by my husband David. I have friends who are still not married, and me being married has not changed our friendship at all. Some it has changed. Some people, I feel it makes it harder for them to relate to me. We are still friends and still talk often, but things are different. It's a new learning process for sure. I was talking to Michelle, (the wife of David's best friend) and she said that is too be expected. When she got married she went through the same thing. I would love to write more, but it has been a very long week and I so very tired.

Take care and God bless.
Cheers! Always,

I Stand For The Power Of Change....

Times are changing. So long since I posted. I feel like I needed to blog. I get married in 65 days. The number is going down fast. I have so much to do, yet so much is done. Its a crazy balance. Things are a constant whirl wind.

My sister and brother in law are visiting us till Friday. My sister and I have been fighting a lot lately, and this week we have set everything aside and are getting along. Seriously!?! Hard to believe, but we are like we used to. I think part of her is sad she is not my Matron of Honor, and instead my best friend is, but it was necessary. My sister has not been reliable lately and it would of been too much stress having to worry about. She seems to be in a better mood about it now, but it was definitely for the better. She's been mad at me for this, mad at me for that, for a while nothing I did was approving to her. So this week being so much fun and relaxing is welcomed and a blessing. She is a very opinionated person and often disagrees with me, and when she does she lets me know. Sometimes in not the greatest of ways. Sometimes its a random text, a facebook message, or a call and she lays into me over the phone. Oh well.

The only thing I would change about my sister and bro-in-law being here is the fact Chuck can be so annoying! He says stuff like "That-there, this here, and done did, etc." all the stinking time. I can only take so much of that. After listening to him talk for awhile I started get annoyed. English and grammar are a pet-peeve of mine. Typos, I know I do cause I am not the greatest typist, typer, whatever, and it's something I am working on. Poor english, that is a another matter. Ok... Rant done. I swear! :)

The wedding is coming together beautifully.

A Few Thoughts....

I can not believe how life is flying by. It seemed life life took forever to get to where it is, but now I can't seem to keep up with it. My close friend from school is getting married Dec 18th. She is getting married ony my 21st birthday! I am sooo excited! Amanda and Steve are perfect for each other. Speaking of relationships, David and I are still together. It will be one year October 4th. Seems like so long and yet no time at all. I can't imagine my life with out him. Its funny... My life before him is fuzzy... I mean I have been friends with him since I was 15. But, the past year so much has happened it feels like it should be so much longer than only a year. I am into my third year of college. Again... Equally weird considering I thought I would never get out of Elementary, the Junior High felt like forever, then High school seemed life forever. Now that seems like forever ago. I still have memories that seem like they happened last week, when in all reality they happened almost 10 years ago. One thing I have learned is absolutely, positively, totally, and completely nothing is impossible. When I was 16 my goal was to go to BBC, live close to Branson and go there whenever I wanted. Guess what? That is exactly what I am doing. I am glad now I did not go to College of the Ozarks. I mean I would of loved to have that opportunity, but at the same time I am who I am today because of the friends I have here. I mean I might of found friends like that at C of O, but there are some people here that I can not imagine my life with out and have become people who will be my close friends for life. Like my friend Amanda getting married in December. When I can talk to no one else I have her. She's a good Christian friend who understands so much of what I am going through when it comes to college and some of the pressures it includes. Also the immaturity and drama on campus can be so annoying. So we have each other to hang out with and stay out of that stuff. Well I have stuff to go do. I will try to write some more later. Love you all!
Always & Forever,
Megan Renee
