Flashbacks and Fastforwarding





I found these pics on one of the blogs I follow. I wasn't sure if I wanted to laugh my head off or break down and cry.
These were taken just over a year ago! I was madly in love with Gregory. Kyli was swiftly falling for Michael, let's not even discuss the other people in the picture. We had no idea what was going to hit us! I didn't really have the ability to look a year into the future, and even if you told me all the things I was going to go through I wouldn't have believed you.





I went to a Maeser choir concert a few days ago. I sat with Gregory's family and I turned to him and said, "Does it freak you out to realize that this was us just five months ago?" ......little bit.
At graduation I couldn't have told you that I would be working in the deli just three weeks later. I couldn't have told you that I was going that I was going to be on one of the best ballroom companies in the nation just three months later. I couldn't have told you that I was going to really enjoy college. I couldn't have told you that I was going to slowly fall away and rarely see some of the people I considered my best friends. These images make up my life now.

The deli, school, and dance. (Not exactly in that order!) That is my life at the moment, but I'm mostly okay with that. My situation gives me so many directions that I can take my future.











So what is my future going to bring.  Well if past experience means anything I'm not going to be certain of anything until I get there.  I will go back to UVU next semester and continue with the dance.  I'm not sure where my job life is going to take me, but even if I can't get out of the deli I'll deal with it.  The part of my life that I'm starting to worry about is this summer.  I have so many options.


Will I simply work full time?









Will I go to school part time and get ahead in my degrees?








Will I go with my honors group and spend five weeks in London studying English, Shakespeare, and Legacies?





And perhaps my biggest question? Should I go on a mission?








Lots of options. Lots of changing. Lots of growing. Anyway I chose I won't be the same a year from now.
