I'm kind of big on visualization, mind control, and picturing yourself as the person you want to be.
(My blog is titled 'becoming' after all)
When I first left for BYU, I was stunned to find that they weren't just stereotypes: some people really do run around like chickens with their heads cut off trying to get married. (SOME, not all.) Anyway, as an innocent freshman girl, I was a little shell shocked with it all and wanted to find some solid ground, something to picture Becoming. I knew I didn't want to be anything like what I saw in the movies, or had witnessed in high school, or that Twilight fanatics pictured as their happily ever afters. I wanted to picture something real.
So I made The Love Wall.
It has moved with me to two apartments and still lives on my wall today. It is incomplete. There used to be a photo of Nie and her Nielsen, and there are more people in my life that I admire and look up to and would be honored to stick them on my Love Wall. But the biggest one missing is me. I can't wait to stick me up there.
All I have to say, is it is October 1st.
Hey! One time you let me create the love wall. I love you Bethie.
