Spring


I really love flowers, and now they're finally blooming. I always love walking down the street and picking (stealing) flowers from my neighbor's yards. It makes me smile because I love flowers, and also because - I totally just stole their flowers. But it's not really stealing, right??

I graduated!

I graduated - from BYU! Can you believe this?

Graduating is awesome, I wish I could do it every day. It's the best.
I got my Bachelor's in Public Health Education, and I'm starting nursing school at Salt Lake Community College in August. :D

It's all part of the plan

I haven't blogged in forever, and I'm not apologizing for it. :)

Something that has been in my mind lately though, is death. In the last 6 months, three of my close friends have had their mothers die of cancer. It's crazy! Not to mention, I work on the Oncology floor of the hospital. So, I see people die a lot.

I don't consider death a bad thing. Because I know that it's all part of the plan. It doesn't make it any less hard, though. Because we're stuck here, while they get to go on, and we miss them. I especially don't like seeing younger people die, and I don't like having to watch their families be sad. It's hard, too, when you get close to a patient and their family, and there's nothing you can do. But the thing I always remember is that they will be together again soon.
