So I decided that I need to not wish for time to go faster?

Hola amigos.

For as long as I can remember, I have always wanted time to go faster. Each school year is always "How many more days until the end of the semester?" My first semester of college was a total countdown because I was in a long distance relationship. 27 more days until we could see each other. Only one more weekend. Yadayadayada. Now I'm like I want to be done with my job. (4 more days!!) I want college to fly by so I can see how my future turns out. 

BUT THIS IS ALL WRONG.

One year of college has already blown by and certainly the next three are going to zoom by even faster. I was thinking about it and these really are the best days of my life. I'm sort of on my own, but really my parents are still supporting me. Let's be honest, my mom still does my laundry. I have the freedom to do what I want with the comfort of knowing that if something terrible happens, I'm not alone. It won't be long and I'll be begging for these days back. 

With this in mind, I am going to try to start living each day as a valuable day, rather than 24 hours closer to something else. It's impossible to know whether today or tomorrow will be my last, and so I think that it's important to live each day for the glory of God. I want each day to be filled with productivity, compassion, and lots of love and laughs.

So I decided that I never want to get divorced?

Howdy folks.

It's not like I just decided this today or anything, but today it's really just ringing true because of a couple of things.
For one, my dad recently got remarried, and I have been struggling with no longer being his number one gal anymore. I'm upset by being number two when I've come to see myself as number one since I was about 12 years old. I feel like only time is going to heal this because I can't really do anything about it. Someone told me in a text today that the only thing I can do is make sure that I don't let this happen to my future family. I sure as heck want to make sure that my own children are never torn apart by the issue of divorce. I feel like I, along with other people, who have experienced divorce value and give even more extra attention to marriage. The man I will marry someday is going to be my husband until the day that we die.
For two, today at work two of my old neighbors came in. This man and woman have been like a third set of grandparents to me at many times during my life. They are the sweetest people I have ever met. In our conversation, they told me that they will be celebrating their 61st wedding anniversary next week. WOW! I just wanted to give them big hugs and congratulate them. WOW. That's really all I can say. What love and devotion those two have shown and still show each other 60+ years later. I hope and ask God that he would bless me with a love like these two wonderful people. We also had another customer at work who said it was he and his wife's 42nd anniversary today. May God bless these wonderful people.
And finally for three, I had a chat with one of my lifelong friends today who is preparing to get married, and I can just see the glow in her eyes when she talks about her fiancee. I've decided that "when you know, you know." You could date for 5 months or 5 years, and when you know this is the one, you just know.

I hope that this post finds you well and in love. ♥

Love,

So I decided disappointment sucks?

Well, folks. So much for my daily blog. It's been 4 whole days! 

In the last 4 days, I have discovered something about myself. I've discovered that I do not handle disappointment well. Like at all. 

I'm one of those people that is like "Oh yeah, it's totally fine." I'm a "It's all good." kinda person even when it's not. I just get excited about little things and then they don't end up happening. And what do I get? A crank butt girl who just needs to get over herself. 

In other news, 4 inches of my luscious long hair has been hacked off.

It's been rainy and cloudy like everyday for two weeks and it's getting me down. Lame sauce. 

That's all I got.

So I decided to start blogging?

Well hello there.

So today I was just like "I'm gonna start a blog." And so here we are. I don't expect that anyone will ever even read this, but hey it's an outlet for my thoughts which is exactly what I need sometimes. I can only rant to so many people about so many things. My problem is though that I can't really say like personal things about people or situations because what if they read it? So be ready to read between the lines and decipher my codes. Again, I doubt no one will ever read this so it doesn't really matter.
I feel like the name for this blog is absolutely perfect for me. Of course, there's a funny story behind it. I follow "Long Hair Don't Care" on Twitter and so sometimes I would say the line just because it rhymes. Well one day I said "Long hair don't know" and I realized it fit me perfectly. I have long hair and I don't know a lot of things. If you read this (and I have stick with writing it) you'll find that out very quickly.

Also, I'm like totally stuck on the Country Romance station on Pandora.

Welp, I have to go to a homeless shelter now.
Not even kidding, that's where I'm going.

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!
