Ok did the flowers get on anyone else' nerves besides mine? No? Well I changed it anyway. I could not stand them anymore. So we all get pretty birds instead:) End of story.

We'll Write a Song... That Turns Out the Lights...
August 29, 2009
By SMALL and SIMPLE things are GREAT things brought to pass.
260 days
You can either change the world, or let the world change you.
The Number 2
Its her hair and her eyes today, that just simply take me away, and the feeling that i'm falling further in love makes me shiver, but in a good way..
Over 17 million
Focus on the critical few, not the insignificant many.
And last the best of all the game...
Women are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the top of the tree. The boys don't want to reach for the good ones, because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt, Instead they get the rotten apples on the ground that aren't as good, but easy. So the apples at the top think something is wrong with them when in reality they are amazing. They have to wait for the right guy to come along. The one who is brave enough to climb to the top of the tree.
Sorry if this post doesn't make sense to some, it's kind-of in my secretive code.. I just couldn't keep it all in my head, so I wrote it in my blog.

What You Do To Me...
I wanna be the picture on your wall
I wanna chase you around until we fall
I wanna be the one you write about
I wanna be the one who never lets you down
But right now I feel like I am losing control, losing control
Hey, hey, hey, hey
My head is spinning cause of you
Hey, hey, hey, hey
You've no clue what you do
Your the storm, let it rain
You've got eyes like a hurricane
Hey, hey, hey, hey
You've no clue what you do to me
You've no clue what you do to me
I can make you laugh until you cry
I can tell your mood just by your eyes
I can sleep with your head on my cheek
And I could be the one you'd never want to leave
But right now I feel like I'm losing control, losing control
Hey, hey, hey, hey
My head is spinning cause of you
Hey, hey, hey, hey
You've no clue what you do
Your the storm, let it rain
You've got eyes like a hurricane
Hey, hey, hey, hey
You've no clue what you do to me
And we'll both fall, we'll lose it all
But we'll have each other
And we won't make the same mistake
Cause we're better together
And we're smarter than before
Cause we have have been through the world
And we know that there is more
When you find the one that you are looking for
Hey, hey
My head is spinning cause of you
Hey, hey
You've no clue what you do
Hey, hey, hey, hey
My head is spinning cause of you
Hey, hey, hey, hey
You've no clue what you do
You're the storm, let it rain
You've got eyes like a hurricane
Hey, hey, hey, hey
You've no clue what you do to me
You've no clue what you do to me
You've no clue what you do to me
I wanna chase you around until we fall
I wanna be the one you write about
I wanna be the one who never lets you down

An Inspiring Prayer...
I have this in my book, and it just helps me to remember that no matter what my life is like, I should always be kind to others, because you never know what they're going through.
Heavenly Father, help us remember that the jerk who cut us off in traffic last night is a single mother who worked nine hours that day and is rushing home to cook dinner, help with homework, do the laundry and spend a few precious moments with her children.
Help us to remember that the pierced, tattooed, disinterested young man who can't make change correctly is a worried 19-year-old college student, balancing his apprehension over final exams with his fear of not getting his student loans for next semester.
Remind us, Lord, that the scary looking bum, begging for money in the same spot every day (who really ought to get a job!) is a slave to addictions that we can only imagine in our worst nightmares.
Help us to remember that the old couple walking annoyingly slow through the store aisles and blocking our shopping progress are savoring this moment, knowing that, based on the biopsy report she got back last week, this will be the last year that they go shopping together.
Heavenly Father, remind us each day that, of all the gifts you give us, the greatest gift is love. It is not enough to share that love with those we hold dear. Open our hearts not to just those who are close to us, but to all humanity. Let us be slow to judge and quick to forgive, show patience, empathy and love.
P.S. I'm sorry that this post is another moral/story post, i just love this one too.

blah blah blah.
some days i go to school and all i hear all around me is blah blah blah. it's so hard to concentrate when their is something in the back of your mind, bugging you to no end. the worst part is not being able to concentrate on your CRT test.. oh well. i just hope problems will end soon, so that i can be carefree and blissful again.
on the up side, i finished memorizing 25 of the 100 scripture masteries. yay for morgan.
and stupid story of the week: morgan at a factory, phone in her pocket, playing on a fork lift, phone falls out of her pocket, fork lift runs over it, and morgan's indestructible phone dies. way to go morgan.

Run Through The Rain
Sometimes you lead, other times you follow... This is my all time favorite story... Hope you enjoy.
A little girl had been shopping with her Mom. She must have been 6 years old, this beautiful red haired, freckle faced image of innocence. It was pouring outside. The kind of rain that gushes over the top of rain gutters, so much in a hurry to hit the earth it has no time to flow down the spout. We all stood there under the awning and just inside the door.
We waited, some patiently, others irritated because nature messed up their hurried day. I am always mesmerized by rainfall. I got lost in the sound and sight of the heavens washing away the dirt and dust of the world. Memories of running, splashing so carefree as a child came pouring in as a welcome reprieve from the worries of my day.
The little voice was so sweet as it broke the hypnotic trance we were all caught in, 'Mom let's run through the rain,' she said. 'What?' Mom asked.
Let’s run through the rain!' She repeated.
'No, honey. We'll wait until it slows down a bit,'Mom replied.
This young child waited about another minute and repeated: 'Mom, let's run through the rain.' 'We'll get soaked if we do,' Mom said. 'No, we won't, Mom. That's not what you said this morning,' the young girl said as she tugged at her Mom's arm.
'This morning? When did I say we could run through the rain and not get wet?'
'Don't you remember? When you were talking to Daddy about his cancer, you said, 'If God can get us through this, he can get us through anything!'
The entire crowd stopped dead silent. I swear you couldn't hear anything but the rain.. We all stood silently. No one came or left in the next few minutes.
Mom paused and thought for a moment about what she would say. Now some would laugh it off and scold her for being silly. Some might even ignore what was said. But this was a moment of affirmation in a young child's life. A time when innocent trust can be nurtured so that it will bloom into faith.
'Honey, you are absolutely right. Let's run through the rain. If GOD lets us get wet, well maybe we just needed washing,' Mom said.
Then off they ran. We all stood watching, smiling and laughing as they darted past the cars and yes, through the puddles. They held their shopping bags over their heads just in case. They got soaked. But they were followed by a few who screamed and laughed like children all the way to their cars.
And yes, I did. I ran. I got wet. I needed washing.
Circumstances or people can take away your material possessions, they can take away your money, and they can take away your health. But no one can ever take away your precious memories...So, don't forget to make time and take the opportunities to make memories every day. To everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under heaven.
I hope you still take the time to run through the rain.
They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but then an entire life to forget them.

little blue book
a few years ago i came upon this little blue book. it has little rocks on the front, and a very simple pattern on it. on the very first page inside it, in my mom's handwriting was this quote:
"at best we should try to help others, and if we cannot help them, at least we should do them no harm." -Dalai Lama
i'm kind-of a quote-a-holic, and this is one of my favorites. i decided that i was gonna turn that little blue book into my inspiration journal. it is now my favorite thing to write in. it's where i wrote my conference and young woman's broadcast notes. i've written stories and scriptures, attached notes and thoughts of gratitude, so many countless things that made the book special unique. who knew that just a little blue book would be loved so much by a teenager?
its kinda my 'stay happy' book. whenever i'm sad, i'll look at this book. it helps me remember that this small point in time won't matter in my future, and i should make the most of my time by being uplifting and happy.
the book also has a few of my favorite movie quotes. i'm pretty sure my all-time favorite movie quote was said by joey in 'friends', "you don't own a tv? whats all your furniture pointed at?" he is so funny and ignorant, it just kills me :)
i even have a few pages dedicated to shakespeare, and the poem i memorized.
i have a few pages that are dedicated to certain people in my life, they have given me so much and i can never thank them enough :) their are only a few people who have do that, and i love them so very much.
my favorite part about this book is the recipe at the end. it's my favorite food in the entire world, and everytime i eat it i become very blissful and happy inside :)
i'm very happy that i stumbled on this little blue book a few years back, its become my prized possession :) just thought i'd share my piece of heaven with a few others :)

Love, Morgan
Oh, P.S. I love my friends that came over last night when I found out. We made memories that will last a lifetime <3

maren louise thueson
This post is dedicated to MAREN :) cause she's just so flippin' amazing!! I've known her since I was 3, and she is my longest friendship :) When we were little, we did everything together. I was so close with her, I even broke her leg! All those trips to delta were fantastic, all those sleepovers were CRAZY fun, and all the times in between were even better :) She is such an amazing little child, and forever will be a child to me :) she is such a great dancer, has an amazing family, and recently made cheer at millcreek :) Yay for my sisters! We grew up in love with the Lizzie McGuire movie, and Lizzie was always her name when we played house :) Nowadays, we have the best names for each other (mogo on the yogos and marebear) :) A few years ago she moved a few streets away, which made it hard to be so close, but I still love her with all my heart, and will always be their for her! Even if she just wants to borrow a book (which happens alot) haha :) I am so happy I met her, and just thinking back, I realize how much she has changed my life, for the better:) I love that girl to death!
Love, Mogo on the Yogos!
(p.s. mare, a few weeks ago you commented that you wanted a post dedicated to you, and this is it! hope you enjoyed it!)

Procrastinaters Unite... Tomorrow.
What a great way to sum up my life right about now. I have so many things I know I should do, but I don't do them. I'm so horrible. Right about now, I should be finishing my honors project essay, but I'm stumped, and have no idea how to write it. This will be my second essay of the week, and the third one must be complete by Friday. On the plus side, I got one finished! Yipee. Two more to go. I can do it! Haha I love cheering myself on.
I really don't cope well with the whole "stress thing". I just don't. I can do normal days, but not stressful ones. This week is just freaking me out even more, considering I'm trying out for cheer next week. What a wonderful way to start out week of Cheer.
Anyways, I probably should get on with my essays... But then again, blogging is so fun, I might stay on for another hour anyways. Who knows?

Change.
Springtime for me always means change. I absolutely love it! I love shaking up my life, it gives me a reason to live. I could never have my whole life where I did the exact same thing every day. I'd go crasy! So this year, I plan on doing the following:
1: Lightening my hair. I like it better lighter. Darker to me just seems do sad and boring. Not that I don't love dark hair, it just doesn't look good on me. Maybe I'll go red.
2: Painting my room. I was thinking of changing it entirely, and painting a mural of the Eiffel Tower. I'm in love with Paris. I really am. I'm going to live there someday.
3: Running a Marathon. I'm going to be running in the Top of Utah Marathon on September 8th, with my sister Shelly. That will make me more fit. Plus, I've always wanted to run a marathon.
4: Getting a job. So not looking forward to this one. I don't know where to get one, I just know I need money if I want to do Cheer next year, which leaves me with the money thing.
5: Changing my room around. I believe that you should look to your room for comfort and downtime, which is why I'm painting the Eiffel Tower on my wall. That will definitely calm me down when I need it.
6: Work on my Tennis skills. They've gotten pretty shabby since my brother went on his mission. He was pretty much the reason I played. I'm gonna have fun playing with him again when he gets home. (Which is in 35 days!!)
I love change, and goals, and they are my favorite way to start out the summer! Oh, and BUCKET LISTS :) :)

Cori Jeanette Harman
My baby sister is a cheerleader. How time flies. Seems like just yesterday I was laughing at her for being too sunburned on the dock at delta. But now she's a cheerleader. All growed up. Wow. My little baby. She worked so hard this week, and I am so proud of her! I'm just so happy!
Now I know what my mom means when she says that its ten times harded to watch someone you love tryout for something. Thinking that my baby sister wouldn't make it, even for a minute, scared me so bad!
Now onto the next thing... Bountiful Cheer Tryouts. And the "fun" begins... again... Yippee.
