Altogether Unsure
It's a beautiful thursday afternoon. and I'm awefully unsure of myself... or the future. I decided this week I want to become: and Ultrasound Tech, 3 more years of hard competitive school in front of me. So I am transfering to UVU, and taking more pre-reqs before I transfer to SLCC, for my DMS (diagnotic medical sonographer.) The biggest news is Zach is joining the Marines. He told me Tuesday, and it's not just a maybe, he is signed up for the ASVAB, and a full physical this weekend. I don't know what to think. I am happy he is moving forward with something he feels is right, but it's going to be tough. Probubly more so for him, but it's going to affect me as well. If he decided to go he would be going delayed entry reserves, leaving for bootcamp this October. He wouldn't be home for Christmas. Part of me wants to cry, and part of me wants to be happy. I've been doing the whole long distance thing for a while, but not without talking or seeing each other. Surviving bootcamp as the girlfriend is going to be rough. Hopefully Megan and I (my best friend from college) can live together, and help each other. (In otherwords, she helps me.) So here is too the future, and the changes to be made. :D

Update.
Hello hello!
Life is grand. It may take you in unexpected directions, but you still have to appreciate the adventure.
Good News:
-I recieved a full tuition scholarship to UVU! woot woot.
Bad News:
-I still have absolutely NO idea what I want to do with my life.
I do know I want to be: A mother, continue to do photography, a artist (Not a starving artist though.) More recently I have considered becoming a registered nurse. Only problem with this is 1stly-I'm afraid of hospitals. In all my life I have been to a hospital maybe 5 times. 2ndly-I'm not sure I want to take all the hard class, like Chemistry. I'm sure I can do great, but do I really have to take that class?
Other options I have considered:
-Teacher
-Going into Business Administration/Coordinating
What I do NOT want to do:
-Fast Food
-Major Sales Corporations: ie Walmart.
-Cleaning Jobs: (Other than the temporary one's and the one's involved with motherhood.)
In another direction:
My mother and I are training for a 10K. Her more than I. I just jog occasionally. Fortunatly I'm getting in good enough shape that I think given the whole month of may I will be able to run a 10 K pretty easily. Over spring break I almost got to 3 miles. Half way there. (A little under half way there.)
Goal: I want to be 160 lbs for my 20th birthday. That is the best gift I could give to me. (Emperors new groove: It's my birthday present from me! Oh I'm SOOO happy!)
Plus, if I can get down to 160 Zach has no choice but to buy me a digital and we are going to get proffesional pictures done. (Which he promised to do back during christmas! :P)
Goal: Figure out who I am.
Not as easy as it sounds. Sometimes I feel so lost in things like: Moral beliefs, Political Views, and Being ok with those decisions. Here in Utah it's hard figuring out what I believe. When I say one thing that I feel deep down is correct a lot of people disagree with me. It disgusts me that the generation I live in is so
Complacent: "Marked my self-satisfaction especially when accompained by unawarness of actual dangers or deficiencies."
So many of of us are willing to let politics, beliefs slide. The earth, the government, all are going to hell in a handbasket if the younger generation doesn't step in. The generation before us rallied against the wars, the decisions in school. We text, we don't buy gas for one day. Big whoop. Something needs to change.
...Thanks for listening. <3 you all!-Me
