Best Friends Birthday!

Today was DesiRae (my bestfriend)'s birthday! I am excited for her just because she turned 18! Kind of a big birthday day if you ask me! Well anyways, she recently got a new job and she had to work today (she was wayyy bummed out) around 3 in the afternoon MommaRae (Des's mom) called me up and asked me if I wanted to road trip it to Lethbridge with her to decorate Des's car.. well being the best friend I am.. naturally said... "OH YEAH! LET'S DO THIS" So we piled into the car and took off..
We went to the dollar store and bought a TON of balloons... this is how the car looked..

Let's just say that was the beginning.... Here's another look at it..









There are 3 people in this vehicle.. can't really tell.. can you? It's a little difficult.. and the balloons began to ATTACK me!! and man oh man! was my hair ever staticie after that little ride!









When we finally got to her car we had streamers, happy birthday balloons, confetti, and window writers!

 The whole trip was worth it! I had a blast practising my streamer skills, which if you ask Des, aren't the greatest.. but I had fun doing it!


This is a small peek into her car!









Confetti!! SO worth it! However the absolute best part was walking across the parking lot, and seeing her car door open, in my head I was thinking, "Oh crap! I left it open!" Just then I see Des's head pop out! haha it was her break time! So MommaRae and I got to talk to her for the 15 minutes! It was rather grand! She looked pretty happy!  She also laughed hard!
Her mom and sister used the window writers to say things like "Happy Birthday!" and "You're 18!"  but me, the bestie, said "WOW! YOU'RE OLD!" :) She laughed! and then said soon I would be old too! haha It was just a grand ol' day!

Honestly, Des and I never thought we would ever be friends, infact we disliked eachother back in jr. High. But through the years we became the best of friends. She is the one person I have grown to trust, and I would not change the years for anything! She is truly my sister. We have done and been everywhere together. We work to help eachother be better people, and we stop one another from doing stupid things. I honestly don't know who I would be with out her! She helped me when no one else would. Yeah, we have had our fights, and sometimes we've had some pretty big ones, yet no MATTER WHAT we are always there for each other. Never will we lose this!
Happy Birthday to my BEST FRIEND, my true friend, and my sister DESIRAE! It's been awesome! I love having you in my life!!

Lessons From Environmental Issues: State Shift

I've been taking this Bio class called environmental issues, and to put it lightly, there's not a whole lot that I like about it. However I found something useful this week, maybe something that touched me more than it should have. There are different types of changes in the environment. For example: Resilience :  is the ability for the environment to bounce back after something drastic happens. Like a tornado, or a hurricane. Let's put this into people's lives, this is like a break up, or the ending of a friendship. It hurts, it even devastates you but give it time, all things will go back to it's natural state. However long that takes, it will heal. You will heal. Then.. There's a change called a state shift . This is uncommon in the environment, because of it's tragic and lasting effects. A state shift means no matter how hard the environment tries, it will never be how it was before, it's changed and can't be reversed. Now let's ...

Through the Fall Out

The title? I thought it was better than "Happy Mother's Day" or "My Mom is Better Than Your Mom" or anything like that. I was listening to this song on the way home, and thought it touched on the topic perfectly. Through the fall out. In life there are so many fall outs, times when we feel we are free falling alone, and helpless. Well, there are people who encourage us and help direct us onto a soft landing, hopefully. Here are mine. First, my mother. She gave birth to me like every one else's mother. She raised me, sang to me, cuddled me, and comforted me. But most importantly she taught me to think for myself, and be my own person. (As I grew up and was finding that person it was not always the easiest journey.) But she stuck it out. She showed me how to go on when your life falls apart on you, and how to pick others up when they are down. She taught me of service, and giving service instead of gifts. She gave me my "I'm not really overly a...

Of Life and Living

I don't pretend to know a whole ton, maybe because I don't. However there are times in our lives, check points if you will, that give us a chance to look back reflect and see where we are going. I so value times like that. Times like today. Why did I check point today? I did it because 21 years ago I was born. Weird right? I don't feel like I'm 21, but whatever. So I was trying to think up things that I may have learned or changed in these years of life, and after much pondering I could only think up a few. So here they are. Knowledge according to Shay. 1) Tough times NEVER last. I know they feel like they will, and I feel like they will, but they don't. They simply can't. So bite down, hold on, and bear the wind, because it will end. 2) Challenges make us stronger. Just like muscles, sometimes we must be torn in order to grow. Challenges work the same way. 3) Life is good. As good as you want it to be. Either you can go through life complaining, wis...
