My Weekend Away. Day 2
Hello, Lovelies
As promised, here is day two of my trip to Mackinac Island. There are only eight pictures from day 2 of the trip, but I believe a recap is in order.
That's it, Lovelies. If you have never been to Mackinac Island, I suggest you go sometime. And make sure that sometime is when it's warm out. There are plenty of places to stay on the island and back on mainland in Mackinac City. Don't forget to try the donuts! : )

| It's a bit blurry. Morgan took it but doesn't really know how to use manual so... But it's still a good picture. |
 |
| Morgan. Who is really pretty like oh-my-goodness. Can you not? |
 |
| Literally the best donuts on the entirety of Earth. They taste great and you can watch as they're being made. Heaven. |
 |
| So pretty. This is a place on Mackinac that is really popular, but I can't remember the name... |
 |
| The same but facing a different side. I would love to go swimming here when it's actually warm. |
 |
| Tyler's very attractive face. Might I add that he asked me to take this photo? |
 |
| Fountain at the Grand Hotel. |
 |
| Bushes at The Grand shaped in two horses and a carriage. Ahh. I want. |

My Weekend Away. Day 1
Hello, Lovelies
The Friday before last, I headed up north with some of my school band mates (Yay, go band geeks!) and hung out on Mackinac Island for two days.
So. Much. Happened.
Confusing happened. Fun happened. Shopping happened. Awkward happened. Sassy happened. Cold happened. Out of place happened. Jumping on beds happened. First times for everything happened. Sick happened.
Life happened.
Here are some photographs from day one of my weekend out of town.
More on my escape tomorrow. I promise there are not as many pictures.... But I will be catching up on Project 365 posts.

There's an ocean in my head.
Hello, Lovelies
There's an ocean in my head. It's like my brain is being tossed by waves. It's like the time I never went to the beach. It's like my own personal sound machine.
But, it's not the kind that helps you fall asleep. It keeps me up at night. The invisible, imaginary waves tossing my thoughts around.
I wonder if this is what it is like for those who are deaf. Or, maybe this is what the elderly who have lost heir hearing hear. Waves, ocean waves. But last time I remember, elderly supposedly hear ringing. Not so much church bells ringing bright and early, but more like tuning forks growing in sound then dissipating for a while.
Is this my sound, waves, much like every person has their own scent? Is this what people would hear if they could hear my thoughts much like a person smells someone while going in for a hug or passing others in a tight hall? Or maybe, if someone were to peer inside my head right now, they would witness waves crashing.

Baby News!
Hello, Lovelies
So, do you remember this post? I ramble on about the Sadie Hawkins Dance, my birthday party, and at the end of the post I talk about how my aunt and uncle are expecting. Even throughout the post I'm hinting at it with the pink highlighted words.
Besides the point... My aunt is pregnant with a little girl!
Like I said in my old post, she's supposed to be born towards the beginning of September, but I wouldn't mind the baby being the first summer birthday in my family.
As far as names go, my aunt and uncle have picked out a bible name for the first and a family name for the middle. There are two h's, two n's, and two a's. Bet you can't guess what the name is... But, if you can: SHH! It's supposed to be a secret.
This past Saturday it was announced at my aunt and uncle's 10th Wedding Anniversary party. Everyone but my cousin, Nathan (the eldest child), is excited. He is sad because he thinks the baby is going to dress all his action figures in dresses. Andrew, the soon to be middle child, is happy for a sister. At least for now!
I will definitely be posting updates on the whole affair as things play out. I will for sure be posting when the little girl is born.
Just FYI, this little girl is helping to even out the numbers in the family again. The girls are currently outnumbered by the guys! Plus, my aunt won't be the only female in her house once she's born.
Ahh! I'm just so excited, you have no idea!
Alright, Lovelies. So, now you know! I'll keep you updated as the due date comes closer.
Until next time, which will probably be tomorrow, don't forget to be nice to people. : )

It'll All Work Out.
Hello, Lovelies
I was searching through my very first blog posts trying to find inspiration for my English research paper when I came across this post: Crazy But True. It was my very first published post on this blog, although not the first I wrote.
In the post, I talk about how I have no idea what I'm going to do after high school or where I see myself going. I talk about how I think everyone is wrong when they say it's all going to work itself out in the end. I talk about worrying for the ACT and buying an ACT prep book from Ebay. I talk about how worried I am for junior year although it's the beginning of summer.
Wow, how was I wrong about everything!
There was no need to worry at all about my major or college or the ACT or life. I now know that I want to major in creative writing, minor in communications, and my back-up plan is photography. I took the ACT in March, and I received a 25 composite score.
I may not know which college I want to attend or how life will unfold for me as I finish up my junior year, and then senior, but I know that everything will all work out. There is no way for it not. Time doesn't stop, therefore something, someway, will work out for me either for better or worse. No matter, I will make the best of what I'm given.
Instead of doubting like I so graciously did in that very first post, I am going to make "Will it be enough?" into "I definitely will be okay." No worries here.
And although I still don't have a topic for my English paper, I have yet another blog post I hope will encourage someone else stopping by to this little piece of HollyWoodLand (that's what I think of my thought process and blog).
For now, Lovelies, I bid you good thoughts.

Something Magical
Hello, Lovelies
As I type this, it's 2:23 AM and currently raining.
I love the sound of rain as it hits pavement, roofs, windows and the idea that there are a million little drops falling from the sky. Something magical. Then there is the thunder that rolls along, too.
Not only is rain fun to listen to, it's fun to watch and dance in.
I love rain. Everything from the smell to the sound to how it feels as it splatters against my skin and sticks to my eyelashes.
Rain is my representation of hope. Rain allows things to grow, to live (as does the sun). It is necessary for any living organism to continue living and reproducing. Let's just say that I would not do good in a desert.
Rain is magical. Embrace it.
