Goodbye

It's so hard to say goodbye. To anyone really. But it's even harder when it's someone who is so so close to your heart. Tomorrow one of my best friend moves to Portland, Oregon. What ever will I do without him? Without seeing his smile, and hearing him laugh. My heart hurts. Of course I wish him the best of luck over there, but why does he have to leave? Why does anyone ever have to leave? Tears roll down my cheeks as I write this... Sigh... Goodbye friend. I'll never forget about the memories we have shared. Keep me close to your heart, because you'll always be so close to mine.

Summer summer..

It's summer out, and boy, am I one happy girl.

Hurting

My heart hurts. A lot. I'm so sick of school, and I'm ready to just be done, but at the same time I like this way of life. It almost seems as I'm starting to get in the groove of things. All of the sudden everything is going to change. It will be summer. People will change, move on, and start a new beginning for themselves. One of my friends who is an upperclassmen, told me that freshman year is always uncomfortable. Then it comes to Sophomore year, and you're starting to get in the swing of your high school life. Then Junior year hits, and you get a bunch of stuff in your face like colleges and such. Last but not least is your Senior year. You know, the year when everyone asks you "So.. What are you going to do with the rest of your life?" The typical question that a Senior gets asked. Actually, even my friends and I get asked that. It's ridiculous, really. I just don't want things to change. I want to stay right here. Let's freeze time!

Mrs. A

So I keep up on Mrs. Anonymous' blog. I check every, to every other, day to see if she updated anything, posted pictures and/or videos, and just to keep in touch with her life. A friend of mine reminded me that I hadn't blogged in awhile, and so I thought maybe I should. At least for the people who do read my blog anyways. Because I know when there's nothing new to read on Mrs. Anonymous' blog I'm let down. Not because she's someone spectacular or amazing or anything. Simply because her writing style is beautiful. It's perfect and elegant. Someday I hope to blog like Mrs. Anonymous, but until then.. I'm signing out. Me, Melly.

Tired

I'm tired. Really really tired. There is less than four weeks of school left. I'm sticking it out, but I can't even begin to describe how much my heart wants summer. Not because of the weather, or even because school will be done, but just because i can take things slower. Enjoy life. Everything comes in season, and this season too shall pass.

Well..

It's been a {long} time since I've updated my blog. I have an insanely busy, but beautiful life. Right now it's Promise Time. It's a special time, and always reminds me of the sacrifice Jesus made for every one of us. It truly is an honor to share Jesus' story and His love with those around me. How blessed am I!

Pizza Night

I'm pretty sure that homemade pizza night is my favorite. Why you may ask? Well because it makes you really feel like a family. Yesterday we had a snow day, and what a better way to spend it then to make pizzas! It was a ton of fun, and not to mention the house smelled heavenly. We even tried some new recipes. We made a dessert pizza, and also a strawberry/cucumber pizza.

Delish.

(The "veggie" pizza.)

(The dessert pizza before going in.)

(The dessert pizza after it came out with a drizzle of peanut butter sauce.)

(For the most part I think this was pretty healthy. It is homemade dough. One half is strawberries with spinach and onions, and the other half is cucumbers and onions. It had a poppyseed dressing.)

(This one personally was my favorite. It's the same pizza shown above.)

(Cito with his "personal pan".)
