First Blog..

Life has been quite crazy for me this week, especially these last couple of days. I found out who one of the A’s are on Pretty Little Liars, Dr. Raimist has asked me to be the lead gaffer on the Shaq PSA shoot during honors week and to help train people in the pit for this upcoming amphitheater season, I went to the midnight premiere of The Hunger Games with Kristen and Allison and sat in the D-Box seats, had a fun talk about photography with Natalie my therapist, went to test drive cars with Dad, drove a Mercedes for the first time and had my life changed forever, drove a new pilot which was nice (but not as nice as the Mercedes), found out Dad was considering buying a Mercedes GLK 350, freaked out when I realized he meant this week, met an awesome couple at the antique store, and haggled for the first time.

All of a sudden, my life has seemed to kick into overdrive. Everything is happing so fast, when just a few days ago I felt stuck. This past Thursday in creativity class my professor talked about public and social obligations in the media field, and how we owe it to society to try to give back with our craft. Then he showed us a clip from a documentary called Eating Alabama that was made by a UA TCF professor. In the trailer, the guy talks about how this project started out as a something simple and then turned into something so much greater, so much bigger than he could have ever imagined, something that could possibly make a difference. It was at that moment that I knew that was what is going to happen to me. I can’t really explain it. I felt to overwhelmed, my mind was racing, my heart pounding. I have been asking God to help me understand what is up head. I keep getting scared of what lies in my future and right there in the classroom it was like He was reassuring me. He was letting me in enough to see that it is all going to be okay. I don’t know how, I don’t know when, and I don’t know what it will be. I just know that it is going to be okay because God has a plan for me that will be so wonderful, so beautiful that my little brain can’t even scratch at its surface right now.

So future Mallory, your wonderful mother sent you this song on Saturday. You cried like a little baby, because it was exactly what you tried to explain to her that Thursday about how you felt something so strong telling you that you were meant for so much more.

Here is it is.

"Whatever you're doing inside of me

It feels like chaos but I believe

You're up to something bigger than me

Larger than life something heavenly."

Hope all is well.

Much Love,

Past Mallory
