I haven't always succeeded in life. Sometimes each time I get up something seems to want to push me down. Sometimes I laugh until tears roll down my cheeks. Sometimes I sit in the wind and just breathe. Sometimes I feel like crying, and sometimes like flying. It's all me, and sometimes...I write these things down, and they're here for you to see.

There's this thing...

...called Life.  Let me tell you something about "Life".  It happens.

Boy, does it happen.

There's this other thing, called college.  It consumes vast amounts of your time whether you want it to or not, and will gladly take more if you let it.  So you sometimes can find yourself going and going and going (sometimes you grab a snack along the way) and then *BOOM* it's 10:39pm Thursday night...and...you get on here, because who knows why. 

Hmm. Ever noticed something? Someone blogs about something, then if you check around, several other people have blogged about similar things...and they didn't even plan it! (Well, to my knowledge, anyway.)  If this sounds a little familiar, I promise I'm not copying anyone.  I'm just saying what I feel like saying, so there.

I really don't have much of anything to blog about.  't's why I haven't updated for a couple of weeks.  Which, is sadly rare for me, since if nothing's happening, I can usually find something to contemplate about and zing you have a blog post.  But I haven't been much in the mood for anything lately, except play the piano, but what else is new? :-p (haha...no pun intended.)

Speaking of which, I played the piano in the Wilk today.  You know, the one in the corner of the open floor by the Cougareat?  That someone's always playing Schmidt on? I can proudly say that, although I do know and love Schmidt, I played an original.  Or, three.....but hey.  It was 7:30 at night, there were like, 5 people MAX on that floor, and two of them were me and John Werner.  Let me tell ya, Piano is A LOT more enticing than studying for a Psych exam. ;-) (Although, John did make it fun) :) It's a little interesting...it's the second time in less than a week that I've played that piano, and both times the 'first time' in my life.  And you know what?  Even though NO ONE really seems to care whether or not I'm messing up or playing around, I was still a little self-conscious.  It baffles me, but not a whole lot, because I understand why...I think I honestly just wanted to say "baffled"... ;-)
...guess what? I've been playing piano for over 11 years now.  Wow.  Long time. Ish.

Ha, I guess I do have something to blog about, after all. Whattayaknow? ;-)

But.....I'm done.  It's getting late, and I really ought to go to sleep.  Some happy thoughts...I think I'm going to go to the Temple tomorrow.  I haven't been since middle of August...and after a habit of going every week since...holy cow, this time last year, can you believe it, Zoe?? I miss it.  So much.  More life updates from the past little while........
........
......... .
um, yeah. Not a whole lot to say.  We did get How to Train Your Dragon, though, I'm quite exuberated. :) *curiosity*...oh, come on...spell checker is saying that isn't a word...I thought it was...a little help, here?

Just go to bed, Jenna. :-P

Well, All, I can say this.  The Gospel is true.  About the only thing in life that I've found to be true and stay true.  And, please, por favor, prepare yourselves for the future.  We never know what's coming or when, but wouldn't it be nice to have a head start when it gets here? I think so...and I want each and every one of you by my side when it comes, okay? :)

"When it hurts to look back and you're afraid to look ahead; look beside you and there will be friends [me]."  -Some plaque I saw...

I love you all.  Stay true.

Love, Me.

  1. The gospel IS true! I love it so much. :) I was writing in my journal last night about how no matter what the rest of the world is doing, no matter how much it changes, the gospel is still true, and Heavenly Father is still there for us. This has been a really comforting thing to me since I moved away from home. I've made some awesome friends up here (not as awesome as my home dawgs from provo but...you know. obviously :p ), but even friends don't stay the same. Friends, however great, are never perfect. We can be there for each other for 98% of the time, but Heavenly Father is there 100% of the time.

    I just realized...I'm probably not making much sense. I got up at 3 am today to do my homework that I didn't do Saturday...

    The point is, friends are amazing. And the best friend you could EVER have is the Savior Jesus Christ, because he'll be there for you no matter what. :)

    Sense? I hope so. :p

    It's good to hear from you Jenna. :) Keep on keepin on, eh? :)

    love,
    Joseph Morris

  3. Hey thanks, guys. :)

    Joey, the ironic thing- we got H2TYD on Wednesday, I think, and my family watched it the next day, but I had homework, so I saw like, a scene and that was it. My siblings watched it several times over the weekend, but I always walked in on the "Forbidden Friendship" scene...and that was all I could stay for :-p Ahh well. ;)

    Bryn, thanks for reading! It's good to hear from you! :)

    Love, Me.
