Keep Moving Forward!


Okay, so I'll admit that I didn't quite follow my "New Year's Resolution." However, I'm not sure how real it was... I mean, it was March! (That's a whole three months into the year, just so ya know!) So... let's just start fresh and new. Like my friend, Lewis, in "Meet the Robinsons," always says, "[Just] Keep Moving Forward!"

So, now that life has slowed down a little--or so I would like to think--it's time to get going on this blog of mine:

First of all, just let me express my excitement for something:

FINALS ARE OVER!

With that said, I can now happily (and joyfully) say, I have one full year of college under my belt! Whew! I can hardly believe that this time would actually come! I mean, I always expected it to happen, but for some reason it would always seem as if it were in the distant future! I cannot even begin to imagine what it would be like to graduate from college! (But, that day will come--hopefully sooner than later!!)

Well, there are a lot of dreams and plans for the summer; so I will have to keep you posted! Hope you have a grrrrrrreat day*!

Sincerely,
Natalie

Is it too late for a New Year's Resolution?


Well, I've been thinking about how much I loved my photography class as a sophomore in High School (not that I miss the class time or being a sophomore, but more of the taking-pictures time.) Consequently, I have just made a new year's resolution to take more pictures! Besides, what fun is a blog without any pictures?!

Ok, now that I've established that I like taking pictures, i'll just let you know right off the bat that, thanks to my Dad, I love Robert Redford and his classic "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid," which further means that I LOVE Sundance. Not only do I love Sundance because of Robert Redford, but I also adore the great views and little nooks and crannies that they have around. So, if you see too many pictures of Sundance for your own personal liking, you can't say I didn't warn you!

Now that I've decided what I would like to do, it's time for a deadline. The goal is to go up to Sundance at least once a month and take some pictures. Don't forget, this is just a goal, and we'll see how possible it actually is, but what's the harm in trying? Oh, and I'll include some other fun, knick-knacky pictures just for the heck of it!

Well, that's the goal, let's see if I stick to it!

Sincerely,
Natalie

Why Hello There!


On my walk home from campus today, I realized how far behind I am on technology and its recent advancements. As I thought to myself that "this is not acceptable," I decided that I could catch up by creating a blog.

Voila! Here is my blog, entitled Phrazes From Me! Now, before you start assuming that I am horrible at spelling, even though that's probably not far from the truth, my title reflects how much I resemble my older brother and his obsession for music. Thanks to Brady and the Julian Casablancas, "phrazes" is the new way to spell phrases--besides, it adds some fun, which is what I'm all about!

Hope you enjoy my adventures as much as I do!

Sincerely,
Natalie
