Dear Blog,

Today is a very good day. I finally got my own bank account and debit card! Woot! I also had this coupon to get a free sobe life water from Krogers, and I pulled it out of my wallet to see if had expired yet and it hadn't! It expires at the end of today, so I was able to get a free drink. Later today I am going to the movies with Katy to see Surrogates. I hope it's a good movie; if not, I'm sure it will be fun anyways! Katy and I make a fool of ourselves when we go to the movies. Good times...

Until Next Time,
Ashley


ps. fifty-two more days!

Dear Blog,

Today is the first day of October! I can hardly believe it, this year has gone by sooo fast!! I sit here thinking of everything that has happened this year. It's hard to imagine that their is only three more months of it. Two-thousand Ten is going to be a busy, yet an amazing year! Where is time going? Where has life disappeared too? Sure it seems like life is flying by, but hey it is only the beginning. October is always a fun month! I love Halloween and dressing up. I am hoping to go to Freight Fest sometime this month, I have never been and I have always wanted to. Tonight I have a business computer exam, I am hoping that I will pass it. I am not too worried about it. Fifty-five more days until I see my amazing sweetheart again, I miss him so much. It is incredibly hard living so far away from him; my heart aches to often...


Until Next Time,
Ashley


ps. I love you Matthew

Dear Blog,


Hello once again. Today has been alright. I woke up to the sound of our song No One by Alicia Keys; I love it when Matthew calls to wake me up. Hearing his voice when I first wake up is the best way to start my day. Today was just a normal day in the neighborhood. I had tennis at twelve-thirty, the weather was fairly decent; although the wind wasn't helpful when trying to serve. After tennis came sociology... Yay. Class was a better today though; we talked about culture. I am hoping to do better in this section than the last. Culture is so much more interesting than theoretical perspectives, believe me! I didn't really have homework to do today, so that was nice. Today was also my parent's eighteenth anniversary; long time if I might add. I am very very tired right now, and I'm debating whether I should go to bed or not. I'm going to say goodnight and try to get some sleep!

Until Next Time,
Ashley

Dear Blog,

I am sorry I haven't written to you in awhile, I have been forgetful. This past week as been quite long; I have been shopping, schooling, studying, and wishing. Mom took me shopping the other day for some jeans, I also got a new shirt, from Old Navy. I had my first Sociology exam on Monday, it was terrible. I studied so hard and I thought I knew and understood all the material, but I suppose not because my grade doesn't prove it. Oh well, I'm hoping to study with Taylar for the second exam; hopefully I'll have better results next time. Life is so frustrating sometimes! Another week has gone by, and I am still awaiting the day until I see my darling again. I swear, I am getting more and more crazy as the days go by. I am just so in love with him!! I hope he always knows that. Well I have to finish up my sociology paper, I'll write soon--but don't hold it against me.

Until Next Time,
Ashley

The Poem He Wrote

Matthew wrote me this amazing poem; I love him so much!

Here I am, I'm all alone.
You and me, both on the phone.
I say I miss you, and sometimes I cry.
We'll be together, till the day we die.
I wanna see you, it's been awhile.
Your beautiful face, it makes me smile.
Just wait, one day,
We'll be together.
Starting then, until forever...

-Matthew Allen

Dear Blog,


Today was a long day. I woke up at eight-thirty this morning to get ready to go to a funeral. It was the grandmother of my good friend Valeree. I honestly really dislike funerals, they are always so depressing; I was glad I could be there for her and the rest of her family though. After the funeral, I came home to a messy room that I needed to clean. I haven't cleaned it since the last time Matthew was here, so like...two months?? Insane. I need to learn to keep that place clean! Took about three hours too. There was a dance tonight, but I really hate dances so I didn't go. I did go to the youth committee meeting before the dance started. We just went over what ward has the dance each month for next year. We also talked about helping with the special Olympics next year sometime. I think that would be an awesome service project, I would most certainly love helping out with that. That's pretty much all I did today, although I should have got some homework done. Oh well, I'll finish that up tomorrow! I am the master of procrastination ya know! :)

Until Next Time,
Ashley

ps. It rained again today

Dear Blog,

Today has been a long day, and it's still not over. I awoke at five thirty this morning cause mom had to leave early for school and dad had work. Once again, I am very tired; yet I will most likely be up past midnight. The kids are still sick, so I had to make sure they had their medicine and breathing treatments throughout the day. I think I might have pulled a muscle in my back somewhere while lifting Jacob this morning. I didn't have school today, thank goodness, but I did work on some homework. I am really, well somewhat, enjoying school this semester; I pretty much like all my classes. Tennis can be a pain because it is so freaking hot outside, especially at noon. Hopefully the weather will come around! Last night I watch the pilot episode of The Vampire Diaries, it was pretty wicked. I think I am really going to get into the series. It kind of reminds me of twilight, but then again I love twilight so I'm sure I'll be on the couch every Thursday night watching it. Right now I'm listening to Ravers Fantasy by Tune Up!. I can listen to it over and over and over again, I get all pumped up when I listen to it. Woo! hah. Well I have nothing else to say, toodles!

Until Next Time,
Ashley

ps. Its storming

It Will All Be Perfect

I sit here awaiting the day, the day where all is found.

It will all be perfect, when that day comes around.

I sit here wishing for him, for him to be with me.

It will all be perfect, I surely guarantee.

I sit here wanting his love, his love and mine.

It will all be perfect, it will all be divine.

I sit here listening to the notes, the notes that remind me of him.

It will all be perfect, when we're together in the end.

I sit here thinking of his eyes, his eyes are so blue.

It will all be perfect, when the waiting is through.

I sit here dreaming of that one day, that one day where we exchange rings.

It will all be perfect, when those wedding bells ding.

-Ashley

Dear Blog,



Today is the first day I am writing to you and I am hoping to continue to write you as often as I can. Sometimes my time can escape from me and I can be full of forgetfulness, so please forgive me. Today so far has been slow and a bit boring. I awoke before sunrise to start my day and I am very tired. My parents are away doing their daily duties in the world, as am I. I am watching my little siblings while they are sick; they all seem to have some type of upper respiratory cold. I do hope they get better soon. Tonight I have business computers at TCC, it can be a drag but I am learning some things I never knew. Other than that I don't have anything else to do today, although I would like to run some errans before class tonight. I am waiting for Matthew to get home from college so I can talk to him. I miss him so very much. I haven't seen him since July 17th, so almost two months. It is really hard to be away from the one you love with all of your heart all the time. It can be a blessing though; it teaches us to trust, have faith, and it brings us so much closer when we do get to see each other. I am so thankful to have him in my life! Well I am getting a bit hungry, I am going to make some lunch.

Untill Next Time,
Ashley
