Just a little poetry for your Sunday afternoon :)

Just a few words
Some people talk too much and say too little.
The words come out, but the information hesitates,
Not quite sure if it’s even supposed to be there.
Their words are like mountains in comparison to the “average English language.”
Reaching to such incredible heights, that no one dares to climb to the top.
No one has the guts to fully scale the massiveness of the mountain, or the word.
It amazes me that someone who can talk as fast as the wind,
Has the innate skill of saying everything and nothing all at the same time.
The thoughts come out as syllables.
Blank. Empty. Syllables.
With no meaning at all.
A monotone string of letter, after letter, after letter . . .
Wanting to mean something,
Wanting to say something important,
But never really saying anything at all.

30 Things I Wish I Knew Before Starting High School

It is NOTHING like the movies.  Being super involved in sports isn't everything. If you want to be valedictorian, you need to decide 1st term of freshman year. You need a LOT  less  school supplies than you think you do.  Time flies A LOT faster than you think it will. Failing a class isn't the end of the world. If you don't go on a lot of dates, IT IS NOT THE END OF THE WORLD.  Find something that you love and stick with it. Don't be afraid to make new friends or lose old ones.  DO NOT MISS CLASS. 1 hour of missed class = 2 hours trying to catch up. If you have a hard time remembering your locker combination, write it in permanent marker on your hand. Keep it there until you can remember it.  Having a good teacher is better than having an easy teacher. Only rent a locker if you need one. I ended up spending $10 to rent a locker last year and never used it.  Don't use binders. They are heavy and take up a lot of space. Opt for a no...

What I've Been Up To

Hello Internet!!! As you may have noticed, I haven't been posting on this site as regularly as I would like to. These past few weeks have been totally INSANE!! On Saturday, my friend's sister threw him a surprise party and I was given the task of keeping him busy all day which took a lot of time and planning. He ended up being very surprised so in the end, all of my effort paid off. (If you are reading this Cory, Happy Birthday next Friday) I have also been trying to get ready for the school year to start. I start my college classes on Monday the 22nd of August which is a week from today. My high school classes don't start until Wednesday though which is super nice. My schedule is a bit insane this year because I am taking classes from Utah Valley University along with my High School classes. As for this next week, not much is going on. I'm hoping to get some new posts up soon so stay tuned. Love you all!! ~Julie

The Writings of Baby Julie | Installment #1

Hi Guys!  This past week, I have been sorting through old folders and files, trying to clean out my flash drive and I stumbled upon a bunch of old writing. I read this one and thought it was pretty good. It was from my English class when I was a freshman. Hope you like it! (And if you don't like it, don't tell me. This essay has little bits of my heart woven into it.) ~Julie ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It's Okay to Cry by Julie Ackerson Purple skies of rain drenched my sorrowful soul as I watched the casket being lowered into the ground. The tightly woven tension crept through the chill morning air, threatening my ability to stay strong. Don't cry Julie, don't cry. I  listened to the people who spoke and held my tears through the whole program. I  looked around me and a tear began to arise in my eyes. I  could no longer hold it. The single tear slid down my face. I ...
