All my bags are packed.

And I'm ready to go...well almost...sort of.
What is it about packing that I competely dread?!?
My mom told me today it has to do with my inability to make decisions.
This is probably true.
But the whole concept is pretty easy. Pick out a few articles of clothing, personal hygiene items, and some chargers, put it in a bag, and you're good to go.
But have you ever packed with me?!?
Consider yourself lucky if you have not. I have to go through every single article of clothing. With each article, loads of memories flood to my head. So what, I associate memories with what I was wearing that day. Then I have to think...hmm what kind of thing do I see myself doing wearing this outfit. What kind of message do I convey by wearing this camisol under this t-shirt. What if I meet my future husband wearing this? The questions I must ask myself go on for a while. Amid all the pondering I do need a break. That thing between my ears can't always handle going 100 bazillion miles/hour. So then, I look for some good music, check facebook, maybe blog a bit about how I can't pack, then try and decide which shoes to take. bahhhhh

ok...well I'm almost done, and then I will be ready to go to the big VA.
And have an amazing time. and have all the perfect outfits for the planned activities.
welll....
bon voyage.
to finish packing i go..

Love,

Dear Blog,

I sometimes get tired of doing all of my posts like letters. Just thought you should know.

Love,

PS I lost those shorts, and I'd like to know where.

Dear USA,

I kind of love you! I'm so greatful to live in this country, and to be able to enjoy all of the freedoms which I enjoy! There are so many people who have sacrficied so much (in many cases everything) for this country. I get chills just thinking about it. I know our founding fathers were inspired men. I'm so thankful for all of the people who have volunteered for our country in the present, the past, and those to come.

Love,
Hannah B

I had a fabulous fouth of July. My bff was here, got to go cliffjumping, and boating (that weekend). The fireworks were fired (despite the wind)! There is something about fireworks that completely mesmorizes me. Watching them over the lake, I feel so thankful for everything that I have. For the freedom of religion that I enjoy. For the freedom to do what I want with my life. So many of us take these things that seem completely normal for granted. I know I have. And still do. But in so many places across the World, the everyday freedoms we enjoy are so foreign to people. Anyways, on the forth, I bought myself a plane ticket to Washignton DC! I'm so excited to see all the historical things! Anyways! I hope everybody had an AWESOME fourth!
