Prologue

Hi! My name is Haley Mae Crane and I am a legal adult as of March 11, 2013. I am a Senior at Pierce City High School and I am becoming very anxious to get out of here and begin my new life. Well here goes my ranting about life and what I expect out of it, I plan to keep my cool and keep my stress level as a number 6. Yes, I know that is pretty high but at this in my life there is so much stuff going and it’s not the easiest thing to keep your cool through all of it. This year I will be graduating and also marrying my best friend, he is the sweetest thing ever and also listens to me more than anyone and actually doesn’t get annoyed. Ha! Well he probably gets annoyed just chooses to keep that to himself, which is a pretty smart thing to do I would say.

Being a senior is kind of rewarding, it’s like” Ya, I have actually accomplished something!” Boom in your face! But well today having your diploma is kind of a big deal and people with just drop and say “Oh, I will just go and get my GED.” In reality a diploma is better than getting your GED, I’m not dissing you guys who do that, because at least you still tried and finished. I think graduation will be a very exciting day not only for me but also my parents. My parents will be filled with complete joy, I hope I have made them proud!

5 days after graduation I will be getting married!!! Yay, I’m so thrilled to start this new journey with my fiancé Thomas Portwood. That’s so crazy, Haley Mae Portwood. I’m not sure how that sounds but I can’t wait to have the name change. Back to the wedding shenanigans, me and my mom are the only ones planning it, and let me tell you it takes A LOT of time and A LOT of money. Luckily my aunt was kind enough to make a few things for me. To tell you the truth I could care less about all the small details, like the centerpieces and decorations. I just want to show up and everything look wonderful, but I’m not Cinderella so that's not goin to happen. Haha o well things in life do not need to be perfect you you to be happy. 

Back to growing up, because obviously I wasn't born an eighteen year old. I was born in a little town that is named aurora, and aurora is in Missouri. I was raised there all the way until 4th grade and I guess it was an okay time....but I'm really happy that we made a move to a smaller town of Pierce City, MO. I made some really good friends and learned many lessons. I think I had a wonderful childhood, there are some things I could of done without but they made me strong and into the person I am today. 

For the future, I am excited to see where it takes me, I am nervous, scared and anxious. Sometimes I wish I could see my future, and then again I think that is a terrible idea! For instance if you saw something you would already know what to expect and there would be know surprise. So I shall wait for all the obsticals that's will come my way.
