Getting to know ME

I know I haven't written on here in awhile... but don't be fooled, I've been writing more than ever. Everyday between classes I take the time to write and ramble about whatever is on my mind that day. Some days I'll focus on my books that I'm trying to pile together, and other days I'll simply just type what comes to mind. I don't always save what I write and usually it's only to calm me down and allow me to get it all out. There's a lot inside of me that I choose not to share and I choose to keep to me and sometimes it's just amazing to write it all out. Plus it improves my writing skills and allows me to have "me" time and focus on how i'm feeling. I'm trying to focus more on taking care of myself this year and really taking the time to get to know me better. Sounds weird, huh? But I think it's important to slow down in your crazy life and realize what's really going on around you to truly be yourself. I've rid of the people in my life who bring me down, and I've become much closer with those who lift me up. The ones that truly appreciate who I really am and understand me inside and out are the ones I spend the most time with. Freshmen year was an experience that sure I'll never forget, but also a time I learned a lot. I learned from my mistakes, I grew from certain relationships, and I realized what it means to let life fly by without even truly realizing what's going on around you. I didn't feel like I knew who I was my freshmen year. I was a little fish in a big pond and I felt I was constantly trying to be someone that wasn't myself. I was always trying to find my little group and figure out what I was meant to be at Chapman. I didn't stop to realize that I couldn't figure out where I belong without truly getting to know myself and understanding how I'm acting...

So here's to Sophomore year and finally being myself. Here's to spending amazing times with amazing people who I would do absolutely anything for. Here's to a year of involvement on campus and being not only a leader in FCA, but a leader in my sorority as well. Here's to living in a house for the first time in my life with 4 amazing girls. Here's to the classes I truly love. Here's to the memories of late night adventures and road trips to who knows where. Here's to going for my dreams and reaching for what seems impossible. Here's to taking risks and putting myself out there. Here's to taking chances with love and trusting someone who means the world to me. Here's to putting my past behind me and growing each and every day. Here's to erasing negative self esteem out of my life and realizing how truly beautiful I can be. Here's to shining on in everything i put my mind to. Here's to pushing myself and always reaching higher and higher. Here's to my relationship with God and opening my eyes to things around me. Here's to being AMY LOGAN and living my last year as a teenager to the fullest :)


I'd say I'm pretty dang blessed. Love you all <3
