Nothing better

Life is amazing.
Music. Love. Parties. Winter. School. Work.

One month until Christmas!! :D
I can't wait to visit everyone.

Your skin, oh yeah your skin and bones...

"Do you have doubts about life? Are you unsure if it is worth the trouble? Look at the sky: that is for you. Look at each person's face as you pass on the street: those faces are for you. And the street itself, and the ground under the street, and the ball of fire underneath the ground: all these things are for you. They are as much for you as they are for other people. Remember this when you wake up in the morning and think you have nothing. Stand up and face the east. Now praise the sky and praise the light within each person under the sky. It's okay to be unsure. But praise, praise, praise."

Show on the saturday at the Kilby Court..SLC

Kinda something like this:



p.s. Johnny Android is kinda a big deal.. *brush your shoulders off*

Canada Pictures

So here are some pictures we took in Canada.. I couldn't post too much of the landscape photos cause I didn't have them.. BUT I had sooo much fun with Kayla. We went to the CN tower which is the highest tourist site in the world. It's about 2,000 feet up and about 147 stories high. :) It was amazing. the floor was glass too so you could see below you. It made me feel on top of the world. I loved it!! :D
Anyways, here are alot of pictures.. I am so happy with life right now. I'm excited for the holidays! xoxo

Oh Canada!

I dont think you know how happy I am that Obama won. Sure, my whole family is against him and loved Palin.. blah blah blah.. Honestly. I didn't really like my options on who to vote for. But if anyone were to win, I'd want it to be Obama. He has a new way of leading this country.. Its either going to make us or break us. Lets all give him support so he'll keep his head up high and will listen to his people to know where to go. I support my country. What I do not support is Prop 8. Do you know how sad it is to know that I'll never be able to say "I do" to the person I love? Do you know how unfair it is that you get to get married in your temple, under what you believe, but I dont get that in the slightest way? How is that not discrimination? Just because I dont believe in the mormon church doesn't mean I'm going to fight against the right for you to get married in the temple. That's your decision.. Love who you love.. I'm not hurting anyone by loveing who I love. Family is another story... Put gay raising familys aside. Why? Why are you doing this to us? My love to who I love is the same as it is to your husband, or your boyfriend. This isn't a Woah is me... this is a listen to me. Realize what you are doing. Do you believe in equality? Do you believe in Liberty and Justice for all? If you don't believe same sex should get married, might as well higher us to be your slave.. Dont put your religion in the way of others rights. I will die fighting for justice, peace, freedom, and equality. I am a soldier for equal rights. I'm not afraid to be in the front of the rallys fighting for what I believe. I'd gladly get shot at the protests for equality.. If your religion was getting voted against to get married, I'd be there with you.. fighting for YOUR right. This nation is under God, and my God is an equal god.

All politics aside, I'm having the time of my life in Canada. I want to move here so bad within the next year. I'm determined! haha I have viewed a couple of art schools here and they are amazing. I want to go into either graphic art, photography, or design.
xoxoxox

I don't like this feeling

I'm struggling.
I'm tired, always sick.
I hate automobiles, mine doesn't get me anywhere.
I hate math class.
I don't have a job.
I hate past relationships that linger with one person.

I'm ready for that restart button for the week.
Monday, please hurry.

Thanks for allowing me to vent.
I'm headed off to Canada for 2 weeks in November,
no contact with the outer world cause I'll have everything I need.

Upside?
I get my passport.
I get my card.
I'm visiting my family.
My brother is more than a 1/4th done with his mission.
I'm learning how to play the guitar, and I get it.
Christmas is coming.
New classes arriving.
I have an amazing new friend, Barela.
I got a new toothbrush.
I get my braces off in approx. 10 days.
I have new inspiration for art.
I am more happy and confident in my life than I ever have been.
I'm cleaning up my speech.

I've been thinking alot

These days...they all look the same to me.
It's repeatrepeatrepeat.
It eats at me.

And I cant help but imagine that you feel very little.
Sitting here I wonder, are you aware that you're alive?
Did you inhale today?
That air in your lungs, it means nothing to you.

It's hard to imagine how one goes on living
after something so important passes on...
How something so close, so needed,
can dissapear within minutes.

It's sad, really.
But you, you lay there,
not knowing your own reality...
not knowing what it means to be alive anymore.

The moments that take your breath away,
should be the same moments that remind you
how beautiful it is to get that breath back.

You're here.
You're here.

I hope you never forget that.

Maybe you should look closer.
You might see someone like you.
Someone trying to find their way,
trying to find themself.

It's easy to feel sometimes,
like you're the only one who's struggling,
who's frustrated, who's hurt;

The only one who's trying so hard,
but barely hanging on...
Well that feeling is a lie.
And if you just hold on,
you might find courage to face it all another day.
Someone will find you someday
and make everything okay.

Because sometimes, all we need is a little help.
Someone to help us find our voice,
as we're drowning in the volume...

At this moment, there is close to seven billion people in the world.
Some are running scared.
Some are coming home.
Some tell lies, just to make it through the day.
Others are just now facing truth.

Seven billion people.
Seven billion souls.
But sometimes, all you need is one.

These children learn from cigarette burns, fast cars, fast women, and cheep drinks.

Heyyy. :)

So these past few weeks have been crazy living in Orem, and I'm hardly there at all.. SOO since I'm in Salt Lake alot, my friend Courtney and I decided to move there.. We wont be moving for a few months though. For right now we're squatting at her moms house in PG.. We both don't get off work until later, so it's soo much fun to come home and play.

This is Court and I with a picture of my Kayla. <3 href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBIS5qN2NBlj502hGpv_eqlYEFsJFlGiRYobi6XBxTohlnfjfoLwvmiU7HQ9IRbwD5gDieifZAEXuKOfGKCda2uN1gFCW1Y2J2nC6KQVnnW80H8OrS8sxtIom3HF7_TxBrWj_r1pBPyjs/s1600-h/l_66bd2c45ae3227c86712a1d1ac3f8cf3.jpg"> This was me after we went to eighties night last night.. speed dating. haha
FLAVA FLAV TIME!! haha ahh we have too much fun.
:D

Eighties night!!

Rock the Casbah

Above all other things

Was Rihanna's show at the VMA's last night not just AMAZING...

Not only is she my favorite r&b artist of the year, but she is stunning..

This was topped the rest of the horrible show (except lil wayne baha).

I think Rihanna should be handed all of the moon men.

Other than that, everything in my life has been going alright lately!

I'm moving out of the Littles in about 2 weeks and moving into my own dorm.. I'm so excited to meet new college people. :)

I'm going to be starting school in January.. Just my generals though.

I also just came back from my trip to North Carolina. I had so much fun hanging out with my dad and his amazing new girlfriend Patsy. I got to hang out with my little half brother the whole time too and he was so much fun. Just like me only in a 14 year old boy body.. It was weird flying by myself, but my favorite part was when my plane went over all the hurricane clouds and it was so interesting to see the clouds from a different point of view. But then after awhile we went into a huge cloud and I kinda got plane sick because it was wayy bumpy and I couldn't see anything but gray clouds all around me..

I was so happy to spend time with my family, I love them so much. I hope everything is going well with everyone! I love you! xoxo

"why am I always tired?!"

Everything has been crazy. I hate it. Upcoming goodbyes to my BEST friend Chloe, my job doesn't pay as much as I need it to right now. My car is a piece of junk, and my life is in two cities. I want to curl up in a ball and disappear for awhile sometimes.. School is about to start, I need to choose a career field.. blah! I HATE RESPONSIBILITY. Just send me back to abc's, 123's, and a rocking chair full of my mom and I. Even though it seems hard for me now, I'm still having the time of my life with my friends and I meet new friends almost everyday.. I love life! I have a new cousin today. :) My aunt and uncle Susan and Nate had thier baby boy; Ryan. (I don't know how they are going to spell it) I'm very excited to meet him. Other news coming up, I'm going to visit my dad in North Carolina next Thursday until the 1st of September. :)
Life is amazing. Keep smiling. I love you all!
xoxo

It's been a rush, but my heart is still beating.

Lately I've been running around enjoying life. I've been with Marley (pictures below) and I've been trying to get school things sorted out.. It's been a rush for sure knowing that I'm out of high school and now I have soo much more responsibility. Bleh. I'm moving to Orem for sure this week, I'm not exactly what day just yet.. but I'm ready.. Yesterday coming home from work I got stuck in two hour traffic with Rogers car. Rogers cars coolant is out, so the cars temperature was getting hotter so I had to blast the heat so it wouldn't overheat in the middle of the freeway during traffic. It was horrible. I had no water, nothing cold at all, so the whole time I was praying to make it home awake. I thought I was going to pass out at times and I was sweating so bad. Luckily, I'm in Layton today because I had an Orthodontist appointment (I'm getting my braces off in 12 weeks!) so Roger can fix my car when he gets home.. I hope everyone is doing well. :)

Elder Hollingsworth

My family is the best family I could ever be in. My brother Jake who is out on his mission (Australia), just wrote me. All his letters bring me to tears.. EVERY time.. I miss my best friend. He's always been a part of me and has been such a great hero for me. SUCH a great example.. OH! these pictures are pictures of my brother going to the MTC.. This is a little snippet of his letter to me from today:

  Megan- sometime this week, read Alma 32:27. This is the scripture that really hit me
when I first came out here on my mission. Because it is the way that you can find out
if anything that we teach is right or not. I know it's probably tough for you to go to
church. One thing I've learned for sure is that the church is a perfect church- it's
just full of imperfect people. I love you. I want you to feel the happiness that I'm feeling.
I feel such peace from the gospel that I teach. Everything about it...the temple and what
you learn there, the atonement, etc, just everything is just...right.

Lazy days, and crazy nights

Last night a couple of my friends and I went clubbing at club sound (gay night) and it was a BLAST! haha! Chloe's friends Sarah and Noelle have never been before and they had so much fun. It was great to see old friends there and to become better friends with new friends.. It seems like there is nothing better on the weekends then to get lost in the beat of the music and flashing lights.. The only down side to this is I'm not getting much sleep at night. I roll into bed about three or four in the morning exhausted from the night, but then I wake up early cause I have this problem where I can't sleep past about ten..
I love my life right now though. I feel like I'm doing the best for myself.. I'm not into drugs, I'm happy with myself, and I have great friends. :)
Oh p.s. if you ever get the chance, subscribe to the podcast "This American Life" It's SO good and educational believe it or not. There's a new one every Monday.. I hope everyone is doing well!

Old rememberance.

Today is just another amazing summer day. Last night my friends Chloe, Emma, and a bunch of Emma's friends and I went to Area (eighties night) for Emma's birthday. :) It was fun, but kinda got old after awhile. It was just a really small room so it got hot VERY fast. I went in drag and everyone else also dressed up.. It was amazing fun. :)
Anyways, this is a poem I wrote in creative writing this year, that I thought I'd post:

Heart-Covered Bridge
The bridge was covered
She kept her heart tattooed to her skin,
And it took shape as a scarlet rose.

The wood stretched for miles,
And seemed meaningless with no water beneath
Yet she dangled her porcelain feet off the edge
Loosely focused on a New York Times.

Approached, She gasped and stood,
Made a run for it down the
Bridge.
Her silk white calved dissipating
Into the unlit wood work.

Her footsteps becoming the snapping of a typewriter
Pressing old ink.
Ink that told the story of a girl
With a heart tattoo and New York Times
-Megan

Oh when the day is blue, I sit here wondering about you..

River and I FINALLY hung out again after about 2-3 years and everything was JUST like it used to be..

Chloe and I shared a father on Fathers Day. haha We're nerds :)

This is my friend Whitney and I enjoying long summer nights. :)

Today I have been really thinking about this summer and how much fun it has been. What's sad is this is my last summer as a teenager. :( I'm so sad, but I know that I'll still have that child inside of me that comes out every once in awhile.. Today I got an awesome job, I'm going to be baby-sitting two little girls at the age of two! Marley and Katelyn. They're SOO cute and I'm very excited to run around with them..

A loss of words

Hey! Well I decided to start up a new blog. yaaayy!
