I AM GIVING UP...

I made the decision today to just give up.
Let me preface this with a bit of a back story. Today I saw, yet another, "Why I got married at 18." blogpost. I read it and I understand why they made that decision. At the same time I felt bad that I am not married yet and I am 20. Sitting there thinking 
"How is it possible that I feel like an old maid at 20?" 
So I decided that I am giving up. I am giving up on secretly hunting for my future husband. I am giving up on pinning wedding dresses and engagement rings on pinterest. I am giving up on wasting time wishing I was married already, so I can fit in with the rest of Mormon society. 
I AM DONE! 
I am going to sit back and enjoy the ride. Whether I meet the man of my dreams next month, next year, or even ten years from now. I am here, today, in the present and I am going to take advantage of that.














Well Until Next Time... :)

Come listen to Mama Kelsey...

Oh hey... I didn't see you there... 

How are ya? Have you come back for more riveting words by Kelsey B? 
Well lucky for you I have some wisdom to share. 
Just over a year and a half ago I started my first semester of college... I know I say that like it was ages ago. :) 
anyway, one day I was sitting in my room doing homework and I was so homesick. I was just not having a good day. I thought by then I would of made tons of friends and went on a million dates... 
But lets be real. this is Kelsey we are talking about. I don't go on dates. Except when its with my Netflix. 
Anyway. I was just not feeling very good about myself. I called my dad for some words of wisdom and he told me a a little piece of advice that I do to this day... 
When you wake up in the morning, before you have gotten ready, 
look at yourself
and say 
DAMN, I get better looking everyday!
So for all of you having a bad day..... 
DAMN, you get better looking everyday. 

Well Until next time.

Here We Go...

Kelsey B
Who is she? Who was she? Who does she want to become?
Hi. I am Kelsey. I am a very opinionated 20 year old woman. I go to a school called Brigham Young University Idaho. I am the youngest of six obnoxious, hilarious, and amazing siblings. I am LDS. Which is Mormon for all of you who just asked yourself what LDS is. I am from the great golden state. I am a California girl through and through. I am from California's capital. Which is Sacramento for those of you who aren't very good with geography. I am an aspiring photojournalist who loves everything about it. I am also a normal journalist.
Alright I am obviously not very exciting. That pretty much describes my life up to now. I thought I would try out this blog thing. I have so many friends who just love this kind of thing and though WHAT THE HEY! so here we go...
Okay... Now what?
I should start writing about something really controversial now right? like gay marriage or Obama care or I don't know border control (that's controversial right?)
I don't know... maybe I will find a time when I want to write about something like that. but as of now all I want is to give you a little insight.
I have always been that kind of a person to try to make people laugh. I don't always succeed and I make a fool out of myself 90% of the time. I go out of my way to text people I love or to call them just to tell them a dumb joke I heard that day. When you smile and laugh light radiates off of you. I know that's probably the cheesiest things you've ever read. but in my defense ITS TRUE.
This concept changed my life. for such a long time I would hold in every single emotion I had. Whether it was happy, sad, angry, hurt, anything. I wouldn't let people know what I was thinking. Finally I decided that I am hindering my own thoughts and what I could do for others. I still am trying to be more comfortable with sharing my thoughts. I am getting there though.
 If anyone ever reads this just remember that you are more precious than rubies. More beautiful and loved than you will ever know.
Well Until Next Time...
