About Blogging

I've never really heard much about blogging until my Creative Writing teacher told us that we would be doing it as a class assignment. I actually enjoy blogging! It is a great way to be able to write about anything and everything. I hope that I will continue to blog down the road. Sometimes I tend to get busy and side tracked from things. I hope that everyone who reads my posts had a good time reading them! I had a great time reading everyone else's!

Long Distance Sucks

Being 500 miles away from your significant other sucks especially when you only get to see them once every two weeks or even once a month. I have never been good at long distance but I wanted to make this work. Now I have been with Cameron for 9 months and wow has the time just flew by. Feels only like 3 months with how much I've gotten to see him over this period of time. It frustrates me that I don't get the attention I'd like and I get jealous often only because I want to be with him when he is with co-workers/friends and the same goes for him as well. Also the fighting has slowly gotten worse and it sucks because how can you fix something when the other person is another state away?? You both need to trust each other and stop worrying. That doesn't mean you stop caring. I definitely think that being apart makes us stronger and I cannot wait till we can be closer to each other. But in other relationships the distance either makes or breaks a couple. If you truly love the person you stick together and work out the problems and differences and make it worth it.

That is my vent of the day. It sucks but it's worth it in the end. <3

Sitting in the Commons

So here I sit in the commons. Smacking my lips while I chew this almost flavorless spearmint gum. I'm talking to Jon, Ryan and Abby listening and joining the conversation among us. They are eating French fries with cheese, bacon, green onions and red tomatoes. The smell is fabulous and the taste is so delicious it will leave your mouth watering for more. The fries are greasy crispy and others feel soggy against my finger tips. It's amazing how you use your senses every day and it is so effortless to do yet very important to us. We do not realize how important these things are until we loose them. Cherish the little things in life. That is all.

Concert Time!

Mikaila: "Cameron hurry up! We only have a half an hour to get ready before we need to be at Brittany's!"
Cameron:  "Are you serious we are going to go two hours early?"
Mikaila: "Well that's what time Brittany and Konner want to leave. It's going to be busy and I don't want to wait in line."
Cameron: "Fine.."
Mikaila: "Cheer up! Now can you please get ready, look for a shirt in my closet for me to wear and wet your hair so I can style it?"
Cameron: "I am ready! Okay, I'll go get it wet."

As this conversation is happening I am in the bathroom straightening my hair, doing my make-up and Cameron is in my  bedroom getting ready. He gets dressed picks out a shirt for me and comes into the bathroom. We exchange spots I go into my bedroom and put on the rest of my outfit while he dips his head under the shower head. I walk back to the bathroom.

Mikaila: "Can you brush your hair please?"
Cameron: "Okay."          
Minutes later.. Cameron: "How's this look?"
His hair is slicked back while he is giggling!
I yell! "Noooooo!! ha-ha Please shake it out."
He walks back into my room. While I am putting on my make -up.
He comes back and asks. "How does this look?" "Hey what are you doing?!"
Mikaila: "I'm putting on my make-up!"
Cameron: "I've never seen you do it this way!"
Mikaila: "Welll.... I do it like this every once and awhile."

I finish putting on my make-up and start to do his hair. Once I finish doing his hair he leaves and gets the tickets ready while I finish putting on my new lipstick I bought.

He looks at me.
Cameron: "Babe, you look beautiful..."
He walks over to me and gives me kiss.
Mikaila: "Thanks."
My cheeks start to flush a bright red and I cannot help but smile from ear to ear.
Mikaila: "Now lets get going to the concert!"
Cameron: "Okay, thanks again for getting me tickets. I cannot wait for tonight!"

I took his first concert virginity! Jason Aldean, Jake Owen and Thomas Rhett. :)

Classified Ad... Story..?

In the Grand Forks Classifieds there this horses for sale from the same owner.

They are up for sale because the owner cannot keep up with the feeding, grooming, and nuturing of the horses and have to up and move from the farm because of their business job. The offer that was given to them was to big of an offer to give up. They cannot bring the horses with them since they have to move into the city life.

 It's a lot of work for a person to take care of these big gentle animals. Especially when they are always busy with work and do not have time to ride them. It would only be fair to have the animals sold to someone who would be able to spend time and ride the horses. Horses love to be givin attention and when they do not recieve the attention they want they will remember that and can start to have an attitude. The owner does not want them to feel unloved. These horses are loveable and keep you on your toes. Showing and teaching you things that you did not know that will make you and the horse have a better connection with each other. As you will teach them things that they aren't use to and show them how things are to be done when you are in control.  

Oh the joys of Hunting!

I love to deer hunt. I have been doing it ever since I was a little girl with my father. Occasionally I would go on hunts for small game but have yet to shoot anything. I have never really thought of hunting for anything else besides deer.

That was until I met my boyfriend Cameron. He loves to hunt, it is literally his "LIFE" lives, breaths, and sleeps hunting. He loves to hunt geese, ducks, deer, any kind of animal. We are going to go shed hunting in a couple of weeks for antlers. Doing this can tell you  about a deer. It is also a plus to find some antlers to decorate you home with.

This year he is going to teach me how to bow hunt along with goose hunting. I cannot explain to you how excited I am to learn! Most people would think that all hunting is the same but it isn't. With every animal that you hunt there are different techniques to use. Where your stand or blind should be, how to set up the decoys, the wind, weather, food plots or what type of crop they like best. It will be interesting learning these new ways to hunting. I am so ecstatic about it but I know that I will have to practice a lot in order to met mine and his expectations but that is a challenge I am up for. Practice makes perfect. I'm glad I found someone who has the same interests as me and is willing to show/teach me new things!

Itchy Feet

Oh my! I certainly got "Itchy Feet" right now! I just found out that Sleeping with Sirens is going to be in Fargo, North Dakota on April 7! I am so excited because I absolutely love this band! My friend told me about them last year and ever since I've been obsessed! I'm also a very happy girl because I got Jason Aldean tickets, We-Fest tickets, and am going to Yellowstone this summer, won a trip to Mexico at work! Once I see something I want I go for it and dont' stop till I get it! On sunny nice days they make me want to hop in my car and drive to Montana to see my wonderful boyfriend but the only thing that stops me is school and work! I wish it was closer then I'd be on road trips all the time!! :)

I can say that there are 100 things I like but I'll try my best to tell you 100 things that I hate. I'm not a very hateful person I like to be Happy Happy Happy! Hate is a strong word so these things are things I don't like or care for.
