Graduation and Things to Come

This month I am graduating! Yay me!I am going to finally be free from the bars of Mountain View High School. I have felt like they have locked me up in there long enough and I am ready to spread my wings and fly far far away from there, and never look back. It was a rough journey, and I barely made it, but I had a good group of close friends who believed in me and helpled me achieve it, and I am eternally grateful for them. There is nothing that I am sad about leaving, but there are a lot of things that I am scared to be heading toward. I like to call them........
THE THINGS TO COME

  • I am officially going to be elligable to close at In-N-Out now because in Arizona the law is not 18, but graduated from high school I guess?! That is one thing that scares me a little, even though half of me is kind of secretly stoked, because I have witnessed people close before and for some strange reason cleaning at 2 in the morning seems fun to me.
  • I am going to be old enough to start renting my own apartment if I choose to, and I think you have to have credit to rent one, but how does one come about earning credit?! I don't know?! How am I going to be grown up if I don't even know how to get credit?!
  • My bestfriend is moving quite a far distance away from me, and I don't know what I am going to do by myself. She is the one I can tell anything too without feeling judged. She is the one who strengthens my testimony the very most, just through her example of how she lives her life everday, and how caring she is to others.
  • College, um....money?! Grades?! Minor?! Major?! Skills?! Interest?! I don't really have any of those right now, and though I truely love and appriciate those who are trying to get me to go right away, I am just not sure if it is my time. I cant make decisions and that is one of the biggest you can make in your life ( in my opinion ).
  • Car, haha my car (which I absolutely love to bits and pieces) is sadly falling into bits and pieces. As soon as I get it fixed another problem seems to show up, and I don't know how I will continue to be able to handle the stress of this problem without my best friend here to laugh about it. I don't know what to expect from it this summer.
  • I am planing hopefully on taking some institute classes as well. I am extremely impatient about taking institute, because although I love seminary, I know that institute is filled with people who choose to be there, and want to learn more about the gospel and fill their lifes with the spirit, and this summer I want to surround myself with those kinds of people, because without my main source of spirituality around me all the time, I have a feeling I am going to need all the support I can get.

I am so excited to be able to move on and get to meet all my new challenges this summer. I am hoping that I will be able to make tons of new friends and become closer to older ones. I am also hoping to spend as much time with extended family and grow as much as I can spiritually so that I will be prepared for the newest and seems to be hardest trial coming up faster and faster everytime I think of it. I know that the spirit and God won't leave me alone which is my biggest fear, and this summer I need to become best friends with my Heavenly Father and the Holy Ghost, this way I am assured I can never be alone and that I can handle it.

Addison, I think you're amazing. You are SO much stronger than you think you are. Everything is going to turn out just fine. Take things one day at a time and know that God has a very definite plan for you.
