Love this Song

Yesterday, Tomorrow, but mostly Today

My birthday is coming up in a few days. It seems like towards the end of every year lived, our age seems younger and younger. A year ago, 18 was the epitome of maturity and sophistication, but I never quite reached my 18 year old potential. I still feel young and immature, like I've always felt and I suppose I will feel for a while longer. I'm alright with that.

Looking back on the past year,I cannot believe it has gone by so fast. I can't ago that I was planning my birthday with Liliya and Kessia in Provo. I was working at Urban Trends, dressing manikins, and crocheting scarves at the front desk. My time in Provo was close to the best time I've had in my life, and it's fading further and further into my past.

Looking forward to a year from now is just as astonishing to me. I'll be turning 20! I will have come so far. I will be done with my second year of college, and hopefully be in the process of transferring to BYU Provo. I'll be looking forward to traveling to Denmark and Sweden with my family to pick up Kessia from her mission in Sweden, that will be an exciting trip. If I get the chance to be back in Provo with Kessia, and the next year my sweet little sister Krista, it will be more than I could ever ask for. And in just ONE year, I could be on my way there.

So here I am, right in the middle. 19 years old (almost). I'm not at a particularly pivotal point in my life, but I am so happy to be here, in this moment: home in Palmdale, working at Party City blowing up balloons and selling kazoos. I'm loving today and I'm extremely excited about events in the near and distant future. I am one lucky luck luckster. Happy Happy Birthday to meeeee.
