What's Your Tale, Nightingale?


I am in love with this hat. I truly have an unhealthy obsession with vintage hats, and each time I get a new one it seems that I can't help but style it and want to wear it immediately. This cute number was no exception. Immediately I was in love! If the cute bird cage veil, and velvet bow weren't enough the matching hat pins did it!  Interestingly enough, this is also the first hat that I've styled more casually, and I love it. This hat and a ponytail seemed like a match made in heaven, and truly they are. 


 Lately life has been rushing by! 20 more days until I leave for college. WHAT?! That's right. 20 days. I am so nervous, yet so excited, and terrified! So many emotions! I can't wait for the memories that I will make and all that I will learn. I also can't wait to really find myself.

At Utah State the program that I'm taking is actually 5 years. (four years for my elementary educator for the Deaf degree and one for my masters in ASL which qualifies me to teach the Deaf and be a translator...) In these next five years I cannot wait for who I become.

Also I am so tired of hearing that I will be coming home by Thanksgiving break engaged. Sorry everyone, but no. I'm going to college for a degree not a ring. Someday I hope to fall in love, but I really firmly believe that marriage isn't for me. It's for the person I marry. When I marry someone I want to support them and love them unconditionally because that is how it should be. In order to do that I must know who I am, and that is why I won't immediately be engaged or be getting married. Thank you very much. (besides to be engaged someone has to like you and I'm not very lucky in that regard...)

Brother Hardman  was my institute teacher senior year (I couldn't fit seminary in my schedule) and he was so amazing. He truly touched and changed my life, and this quote has kept me going through so much!
