If you know me, you know I LOVE the show How I Met Your Mother. I watched all nine seasons and fell in love with the characters. The premise of the show is that the main character, Ted Mosby, is telling his kids the story of how he met their mother. He teaches them lots of life lessons through these stories. He is telling them this HUGE story so that he doesn\u2019t forget how it all happened.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Throughout my year as a state officer, I have taken up journaling. I try to journal every day and I usually do it before I go to sleep. I write about what I did that day, how I\u2019m feeling, and of course all of the fun stories I\u2019ve collected that day. I also collect random items from the day to include in my journal. Anything from the wristband for an event to my visitor sticker form the school I visited that day. It\u2019s my time to relax, unwind, and capture the best moments of this year so I never forget.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This season of my life is flying by faster than I ever could\u2019ve imagined. Much like Ted in How I Met Your Mother, each one of my days if FILLED with stories I never want to forget. From late nights at the Great Indiana State Fair to ice cream runs with my teammates to FFA members that I meet traveling on chapter visits, I write it all down. I even find myself throughout the day making mental notes of important things I want to be sure make it into my journal that night.<\/p>\n

The other day I looked back at my journal entries from a few months ago, and I noticed how many fun times and stories had become jumbled in my memory. However, because I wrote it all down I can relive those memories anytime just by opening a book.\u00a0<\/p>\n

No matter the season of life you are in right now; fast paced, laid back, or anywhere in between, I encourage you to write it ALL down. Someday you\u2019re going to look back and wish you could remember it all exactly like it was. Because if Ted Mosby taught me anything, it\u2019s that someday you\u2019ll want to tell the story, and you\u2019ll be glad you remembered every single detail.<\/p>\n

Collecting the memories,<\/p>\n
