happy for him.

Football has played a significant part in my boyfriends life for a very long time. When I started dating him in highschool, I wasn't able to make much of his games due to my volleyball schedule.. but I would always hear from my friends who were there how good Robb did. I never doubted him once to be a bad player, but it did make me sad that I never really got to see him play. Even though I was never there, he would text me just before the game started and right after it ended. Sometimes he would even text me during halftime, just to say a quick "I love you" before going back in :) but really, football was just something he loved to do. We never really thought he would go far with it... as bad as that sounds. Not that we doubted it, but it was just out of our minds.

He had made plans to go to Snow College and play for 2 years then just be done. But after red-shirting for the first year, he spent that next summer busting his butt in the weight room and doing workouts everyday. I admit, I was a little jealous that Robb was spending time with the weights more than he was with me... Lol. But I got over it once I saw how big his muscles were getting. Lol. Jk ;) I could just tell he was real serious about improving his game on the field. And all that hard work definitely paid off :)

Today, my handsome boyfriend (verbally) committed to the University of Arkansas :) He will be signing the letter of intent next week to make his committment official and I can't tell you how excited I am for him!! :) Words definitely can't describe how proud and how happy I am for him that he's made it this far in his football career. Robb has worked so hard the passed few years and I don't think anyone else deserves this opportunity more then he does. With the support of his family keeping him motivated he has come such a long way... Most people say that everything happens for a reason, and for whatever reason that THIS is happening, I know it's for a good purpose :) for both me, and him.

How bout them razorbacks!? LOL :)

the cutest thing ever.

On our way to the mall, my friend and I had pulled up next to a car at the stoplight and on my side there was an elderly couple, holding hands :) It made me think about how that's how me and my boyfriend hold hands in the car. Not only were they holding hands, but they both had their oxygen tanks in the middle. Lol- call me cheesey, but I just thought that was the cutest thing ever :)

Old love is just as great as young love :)

stressed.

I'm pretty sure last week was one of thee most stressful weeks of my life. We had finally gotten a new coach for volleyball, and let's just say I think she's related to Hitler. Lol- no really though. Our practices have been nothing but non-stop running and jumping leaving me way too exhausted and tired to do anything, therefore, I started falling behind on my classes. Then of course I tried making an effort to do my work which took me HOURS! Literally. Sometimes I had to pull all-nighters which put my body and mind in terrible condition. It was just hell week for sure. I wasn't eating much because I tried to sleep every free-time I had because I was so tired, I couldn't concentrate in my classes because I was so worn out, and I didn't even talk to Robert that much because I was so busy :( But on top of everything..... all I could think about was going home.

It's FINALLY April, and the closer it gets to me going home the more homesick I get. I miss my stubborn father, my annoying mother, my rude little brothers, my loud and stinky nieces, and my sisters(as weird as that sounds. lol). To be honest the thought of being homesick had NEVER crossed my mind when deciding to attend school here in Missouri and I never thought I would fall under this category seeing as how excited I was to just "get out"- you know? But trust me, it's so tough out here without having my family near me.

*sigh* I'm happy its getting closer though. Because I absolutely cannot wait to be back in the city with my loved ones! ;) ..In the mean time I'm hoping my stress level will lower. Lol. Hopefully.

That is all.. not much I know. But it was just some things that were on my mind ;)

there's no place like home.

This week is my spring break for my school and while everyone, or i'd say... about 90% of the campus is out having a blast in Panamal Beach City, Florida. And while they're out there relaxing on the beach, with their toes curled in the warm sand, sippin' on a margarita while getting a tan in the marvelous weather................... I'm here. In the small town of Fulton, Missouri. By myself. In this room the size of a jail cell. But am I complaining? (I don't know, am I? lol) A little bit, yeah. Lol.

I guess I shouldn't complain too much since I'm not entirely here by myself... right? Kitty is here with me, but she's in a sorority and her sorority house is across campus. We tried to make the best out of our break but doing little things. We had a movie night last nite with our good friend Morgan (lol) and baked choco-chip cookies with pizza :) So I guess you could say its not all that entirely bad. At least I get the lounge to myself, right? Lol.

But tonight? Tonight's just a different story. Everything just had to sink in as I was laying in my bed, staring at the ceiling, wondering what the hell to do. I starting thinking about how I was never bored like this at home because Pumpkin was always home with the babies and so I always had someone to play with. Then it hit me, and good ol' cry baby crystal took over me. I really miss home :(

Last semester, I was hit by the homesick truck almost every single night. It was horrible. I found myself almost crying randomly all the time but I just missed my family so much. Especially my daddy. This semester has been a lot better for me though, but better doesn't mean its entirely gone. I've learned to deal with the fact that I'm away, but nights like these is when you just have to let it out sometimes ya know? I know I did.

..So i'll just be here, wishing that the next month and a half will go by quick-

love you all & goodnight,

So....

...robb couldn't make the flights to come out this weekend :( It was really the only thing I was looking forward to for the weekend.

Was I sad? Very.

Did I cry? A little bit.

But I'm not one to be pessimistic. So I told him it was fine and that we should just look forward to spending the entire summer together :) ..of course I gotta find a summer job first. lol- but as much as I was super bummed I couldn't get to see Robb this weekend, the next month and a half is going to go by super fast and it was just a matter of time before I'll be home again :)

So everythings good now! lol.

..you guys love us :)

Asta la'bye bye

short but sweet.

So I sat in stake conference today, (Yes, I go to church here in Missouri.... Sometimes. lol- at least I go right?) and I decided to make a blogging goal. Every sunday I'll post a blog with a quick update on whats to come for the week ahead. Just so it could help me get used to blogging every week... even though I think I've been doing pretty good lately. You think? :) Lol.

Anyway... I am STOKED for this week!!!!!!!!!!!!
