Who am I? Where Do I belong? Where am I going?

As I enter my last year as a college undergrad I start to think about what direction my life will take and it sure is mind boggling. Ever since I started high school I knew I wanted to become a physical therapist and I see that as lucky because I see people every day that have no idea what they want to do with their lives. I also have wanted to move to California and live near the ocean. Lately I have been thinking that maybe that isn't what I should do. I keep thinking what about Texas, or Georgia, or North Carolina. Who am I to just completely rule all those places out and not completely explore all of my options. So cheers to exploring options and really making this year count and possibly learning that much more about myself.

Redneck Alert


Last summer a serious tradition was started. At the county fair my awesome cousins one of our friends and I embarked on wrestling a pig. Last year we just couldn't get the pig lifted high enough for it to be in the barrel and we let go to soon and the pig got loose, EPIC FAIL!! All year we joked about how the next year we would prove our true awesomenss. We strategized and strategized until we came up with the perfect plan, little did we know our plan was no match for one pissed off pig. I never thought I could wake up so sore from being beaten up by a pig. I slipped going after the pig and hit my head and then was stepped on and then the time ran out and we didn't get the pig into the barrel. Another EPIC FAIL!! I have learned that it doesn't matter how good you are because it all depends on how feisty the pig is. If you're lucky your pig will not move and as we found out you could also get a pig that tries to jump back into the trailer and wants nothing to do with you. I don't really care that we didn't win I just love the amount of fun we have and all the jokes that we can make. This event is what I wait all summer for because I know that I will have a blast and never forget those memories.
