10+5-4+6+10-5=22

I'm officially 22 years old. I was asked today what I have learned in 22 years, and this what I've learned:

• God is real; as is the Atonement. 
• Everyone's life is hard. 
• Do what you want to do. If that is going to school, dying your hair purple, or staring at hot air balloons--do it, and do it well.
• Loving is real. Hurting is real. Healing is real. Loving again is real.
• Not everyone graduates from college in 4 years.
• Find your drug. 
• Laughing really is the best medicine. 

Today really was great. I worked most the day and played volleyball in the evening. I kinda like my coworkers. I blew powder sugar--if you haven't done that before, do it. It's one of my favorites! I finally got my teaspoon set and my favorite Half Baked ice cream. I'm going to bed a happy 22 year old tonight.
