Some of you might remember me as Sophie, the girl from the blog Free to Be Me.
That was a year ago, at least.. I mean, I barely posted a year ago, mostly because life has its challenges and its busyness that takes away from the time that could be used for blogging.
Well I decided to come back. I'm going off to college in the fall, so I'm not sure how committed I will be able to be to this blog... Nevertheless, I feel like a blog is sort of an online journal, somewhere you can vent (to a certain extent), share your favorite experiences, share your wisdom and your opinions on things happening in life.
I want this summer to be a time where I can fully come to grasps with who I am. I love the way you can express yourself via blogging, it's like sharing bits and pieces of your soul with the world.
I know, I know. You've all heard this before. But I wanted to introduce myself to you. Again. After a year's hiatus, I am back.
My name's Grace.
Yeah yeah, I know... you're probably thinking... Sophie? Grace? Huh? But honestly, I think revealing my name allows us to bond just a little bit more.
In case you want to know more about me, I'd love to just fill you in now, as long as we're here.
I'm a recent high school graduate, and I'll be going off to college in the fall to pursue a degree in occupational therapy.
I'm a barista... No not a bartender. I make coffee. I bet you're thinking, "Oh man, another coffee addict on our hands..." Nope. Well, sorta. I defy the odds by not liking brewed coffee whatsoever. I enjoy mochas, macchiatos, and other frilly drinks, but when it comes down to it, I'm not a hardcore coffee fanatic. I couldn't possibly down black coffee, even though I work at a coffee shop. I guess you could say that's an interesting fact about me.
I like music. Lalalala. I'm always singing or humming something, and it's not unusual for Pandora or iTunes to be popped up on my laptop screen on a regular basis.
I like shoes. Last week I lost ONE of my favorite sandals. Not both of them, just one. I'm so sad.
I like making lists. For example, this one.
I like Pinterest (who doesn't?). With the number of pins I have, I should honestly never be bored. However, I still get bored. *Facepalm.*
I like the color mint green... but I don't like mints.
I love Jesus. He's the spring in my step, the peanut to my butter, the water to my fall. He's what brings me to life, who holds me together, who counsels my steps on the journey to becoming who I'm meant to me.
I hope you've enjoyed a second introduction from myself... And I also hope you don't think I'm crazy. Thanks for all your understanding, my dearests! And last of all... I think I'm going to sign off in honor of my new blog title. Let me know what you think!
Sincerely, me.

Anybody out there? (:
Hello my dearest lovely old friends!
I know this might come as a bit of a surprise to you--seeing me back here again-- but lately I've really been missing the blog world. I'm considering coming back to posting a bit more regularly but completely changing this blog... The look, title, content, and everything about it, because I've changed in the year I've been away, so I believe I need to transform this blog into something more fitting to who I am now.
Now, I don't know if anyone will even realize this post, or if anyone would even care if I jumped back into the blogosphere. But I just think even blogging for my own benefit might be the thing I need to do. I just feel like getting my thoughts out like this is something that could be very beneficial to me, and hopefully I may have something to say that could help others out as well.
So anyway, if anyone is out there reading this, I have a few things to say. First, you're beautiful. Second, feel free to drop me a comment or feedback on what you think about me possibly comin' back to this crazy blog world. Also, you could give me ideas on what you'd like to possibly see me write about in the future, if you're interested.
Have a fabulous day,
and thanks for taking time to read this post from an old pal. (:

{this post remains untitled!}
hello my dear fellow bloggers,
first of all, i must deeply apologize for not blogging for...well, months.
my junior year has been hectic, to say the least! school has crept up on me and continually takes up all of my free time... wait, i guess it's not free time because homework practically consumes my life. ha. don't ya just love school?! ugh...
although my life has been crazy and thrown a couple curveballs my way, i can continually hold strong to my faith in God and know He has a plan for my life. and amidst all the confusion and pain and stress, i can be confident that God has something in store for my days better than i could ever imagine, and i need to stay close to Him so His plan for my life can be fulfilled. anyway, i just want to close with some words i have found inspiring in the last few months.

this is happiness...
Happiness is...
...scooping up my heart and putting it onto paper. aka,
my journal. :)
...taking naps.
guaranteed to make you feel 100% more refreshed. :)
...taking a run,
as the sun goes down, with your ipod in one ear, and your dog's leash in the one hand.
oh, and don't forget, i carry my mini pepper spray just in case of any creepers. :)
... shoes.
cute ones. any kind. they just have to be cute. and i will wear them. :)
... surprises.
okay, not JUST this kind of surprise... any kind. except it has to be a GOOD surprise, not a bad one! :)
... road trips.
i love them. even though you feel like you may go insane after a long car ride, the destination makes it MORE than worth it.
... mustaches.
because mustaches are beast. ;)
... cups of tea.
especially in a cup as cute as this. ;)
... summer.
purely amazing. i have 2 weeks left of it. and i'm going to make the best of every last minute i have.
so, what is happiness to you?!
