Sophia Bush:

I thought that I would write a post on someone I look up to, and not just because she is gorgeous and from my favorite show, but because she is someone who inspires me and someone who should be looked up to and idolized, instead of people like Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton. Sophia Bush inspires me because along with being beautiful, she is also very intelligent. She stands up for her beliefs and fights for them. She is part of many organizations that help the environment, animals, and people in need. 

"I know that we are just guests on this planet and we should take care of it." S.B.

She does what she can with her status to make people aware of what is going on in our world and what we can do to help. She has a real passion for things and that is something I really admire, because I used to be like that. I want to help out more, anyway I can with animals and the environment. This is why I look up to her. Not because she is famous, but because she is actually doing something with her status, instead of just living in a big house and spending all her money on cars and clothes. She is someone to look up to.

Use environmentally safe grocery bags. No more plastic.

Gets the cast of OTH to recycle.

Joins in organizations that help people.

Missing You and Them:

I miss a lot of people right now and I miss a lot of things. I miss my roommates, who are some of my best friends. I miss hanging out with them everyday, and just talking and laughing about everything and anything. I miss staying up all night laughing at the silliest things with my roommate, Angie. I miss my best friend, Jen. I miss going shopping with her, and having sleep overs at her house, talking about everything. I miss her presence in my life, she's my best friend. I miss my best friend, Sarah. She is getting married in August and I'm worried things may change a bit. She is my longest friend. I miss my Ex. Actually, I miss two of them. I miss Travis, Elder Howden. Even though he made me so mad sometimes, he was still one of my best friends down at Snow. I miss talking to him, and arguing about rugby. (Highland is so much better than United..) I miss Oliver. I miss how we knew everything about each other. I didn't have to tell him what I was thinking, he already knew. He knows how I watch Chick Flicks and eat ice cream when I'm upset, he knows how obsessed I am with Grease and how I want to sing it with my husband; he knows me. I miss romance, and that feeling you get when things are just starting out with a guy you like. Like the excitement, the bubbliness, the nervousness, the butterflies. First kisses, first dates, and all of that. I guess I'm just impatient. I just miss everything that has happened that isn't there anymore. Does that make sense?

Growing up a dreamer:

When you're younger, you sit and day dream about what your life is going to be when you're older. Once you get to that age that you've been dreaming of since you were little, you realize that your life isn't the way that you thought it would be.
When I was little, I thought that by now, at age nineteen, I would have a car, a great job, and an amazing boyfriend. I have none of those things. Now, I am dreaming about the future, how I want to be married with a fantastic husband, great kids, a beautiful house and all of that. But, if I am dreaming of those things now, like I did when I was little, are they really going to turn out like I think they will? Things didn't turn out like I thought they would when I was a little girl. What is the use of dreaming? You can wish and wait for your life to turn out the way you think it's going to, but it's not always going to go the way you planned it.
