Blogiversary

365 days....216 posts....I am definitely not counting how many words. This all adds up to one year of blogging. Can you believe it?! My little space here on the internet has existed for one year!

When I started this blog I don't think I realized how this thing that most people consider a hobby would become such a part of me. At first it was just something that I wanted to try, something that I hoped I could be good at, and something that I wanted to stick too. Now it is my hobby. Something that I tell people I do, something I do for fun and because I throughly enjoy doing it. 

So here's to one year of blogging! Happy Blogiversary Moo's Musing!

TGIF

Dear Friday, This week wasn't all that stressful to be honest! I am very thankful for that! However, I am so happy for the weekend. There's just something glorious to know that it is Friday and I have no obligations. 

Dear School, There are less than 30 days left of classes.This terrifies me. I feel like I should be way more stressed than I am, and since I am not stressed it is stressing me out. I feel like I am missing something and it is all of the sudden happen upon me and I am going to freak out! Let's hope that does't happen and I just get to enjoy each and every step of the way.

Dear Dating, I'm still not such a huge fan of you yet. Everyone talks about how much fun dating is and I just don't feel this yet. I am trying to enjoy this process as much as possible. Hopefully that enjoyment will start soon. 

Dear Best Friends, I miss you both very much! You both are just too busy. Slow down and lets hang out!

Some Articles I Have Loved

Lately, I have been in love with Thought Catalog. Now I can't say I agree with, like, or endorse everything that is written about on there. However, I really like some of the articles! I decided to pull some of my favorites in the last few weeks and share them with y'all! Some I just liked the writing style, others I really enjoyed the content. Some were just very relatable! I'd love to hear what you think, or other articles that you have enjoyed reading. Please share! So in no particular order here ya go!

I Am Tired, But Thankful

Okay guys...I'm tired...

I'm tired of staring at this blank document and not knowing what to write. 
I'm tired of being uninspired. 
I'm tired of wanting to spend my days outside but being stuck inside. 
I'm tired of these ridiculously stupid headaches that never seem to go away. 
I'm tired of my wanderlust that isn't being fulfilled.
I'm tired of looking at beautiful pictures instead of taking them myself.
I'm tired of wanting to go out and having no where to go and no one to go out with.
I'm tired of missing people who don't miss me back. 
I'm tired of wanting to buy things and having no money.
I'm tired of not having a full gas tank.
I'm tired of everything changing and yet feeling like it all stays the same.

But most of all I'm tired of being tired.

YET....

I am so thankful for the sunny days that we have had here in California.
I am so thankful that I am healthy.
I am so thankful for my job, and the people that I work with.
I am so thankful that my degree lets me be creative.
I am so thankful for all of the wonderful places that I have been.
I am so thankful that I have friends who love me.
I am so thankful for my family who is always there when I need them.
I am so thankful for everything God has blessed me with.
I am so thankful for my puppies who like to cuddle.
I am so thankful for the times of rest during the week.
I am so thankful for the business too.
I am so thankful that I get to put on awesome events at my school.

I may be very tired, but I am thankful for the moments that I get to live each and everyday. The good, the bad each moment makes up our lives. 

What are moments that have made you tired or thankful lately?

The End Of Spring Break

Dear Friday, I am kind of sad to see you come. You mean then end of spring break. Your coming means that I have to go back to reality. I had very little to do this week, which made me kind of sad, but I still enjoyed myself immensely!

Dear School, Can we ease into the routine again? I'd really appreciate it.

Dear Travel Bug, You are constantly bugging me. My heart longs to wander and see we are all aware of this. Sadly, my bank account does not match the desire I have.

Dear People, I am so blessed with these new friendships lately! I am completely enjoying getting to know new people.

What 20 Feels Like

via

Age. It's a funny thing. As we go throughout our school experience age means so much to us. In high school being 18 and dating a 16 year old is just not cool! But being 18 and dating someone 21 than that's awesome to your peers. Yet, as I have recently turned 20 age is like this new factor. I kind of feel old...

Growing up you constantly hear people talk about your "20's." There are so many articles you see and read about doing things in your "20s." Everyone seems to have an opinion about how to live throughout these next 10 years. "You'll never get them back" or "These are the best years of your life" I mean really? Who's to say that 19 wasn't great? Who's to say that being 22 is going to be awesome? 

What does being 20 really mean? To me 20 feels old. I'm no longer a teenager. In my 20s I want to get married, and have kids. This doesn't feel so far away anymore and it hasn't for awhile, but now it feels even closer. It's even more of a reality of how fast time passes.

Being 20 makes me feel grown up. I've been an adult for 2 years already, but now it feels real. It makes me realize how much I rely on my parents for things, and how much I maybe shouldn't. I have this feeling that I should be grown up already. Like all of the sudden...boom...I'm 20. I've always been different than most college kids, but now I feel like I'm 20. Do I even act 20? and what does acting 20 mean?

I'm almost half way through college, and now I am 2 decades into life. It passes so fast and things can change in just a moment. God is in control of it all, but I don't want to take any moment for granted. Maybe I'll do something crazy in my 20's, and maybe I'll live just a plain normal life. But whatever these next 10 years hold I just want to enjoy them. I want to love each and every moment and circumstance that God gives to me. The wonderful, the good, the bad, and the horrible. Tomorrow isn't promised to me. So here's to thank God for one more day, and for the last 20 years. 

What does being 20 mean to you? What do you love or remember about your 20's?
