A Letter to Cherish

This year’s spring break could not come any slower! I am super ecstatic about spring break; I will be traveling to Ellendale, North Dakota. I will be taking a tour of the school and trying out for their girl’s basketball team. Trinity Bible College is the name of the school, it is also the same school my siblings have attended and they told me it was great.

There is only one problem, you see, my boyfriend and I have spent a plethora of time together this year, and have became much closer. We have been through good and bad times in our relationship, but we still learn to communicate and work out our problems together.

But our biggest challenge is near, COLLEGE! Scott knows that I want to continue my education and to be able to play basketball at a higher level. I know it is going to be hard for us not to see each other every day, and I feel miserable for going far away. Whenever I feel terrible about leaving off to college somewhere far, I read this letter:

I received this letter on February 14, 2012, on our very first Valentine’s Day spent together. After reading the letter, I stop feeling miserable about going far away. I know that we will be okay no matter how far I go to school. I know this because, Scott says it in this amazing letter that I will never lose. Or whenever I feel lonely or sad, I just open up this letter and read it to myself, and I know that I have someone out there who loves and cares

I Want, I Need, I Have to Have

A question that never fails to be asked toward me is, “Do you hate having to wear glasses every day?” I can honestly say no! I love my glasses, they are my life! I can see just about anything that is surrounding me where ever I go. I know people notice how thick my lenses are, but of course it is not that hard to notice. Back in my younger days, I had names called at because how thick my lenses were. But let me tell you, I would never change a clear vision for a blind site.

                No one is perfect, but I am happy with who I am. My glasses are something that I must have with me every day. My life would be a catastrophe without my beautiful glasses.

                I would not be able to see notes in class that I have to take down. Read messages when I receive a texts or emails. See pictures as clear as I should or even taking pictures. I would not see my beautiful family’s and boyfriend’s face as clearly as I wish I could. Oh gosh and driving! I would probably cause an accident on the road without my glasses or even get a ticket for reckless driving. Even when I put on my make-up I need m glasses, or when I pluck my eyebrows. Now that is definitely a time when I need my glasses!

                No matter how good I would look without my glasses, or no matter if I get made fun of how thick my lenses; I cannot live without my glasses. I love to be different with them; it makes me feel smart or like a know it all type of person.
