A few months before my birthday Dawson decided he was going to buy us Morgan Wallen concert tickets and see him on my birthday. Since we have been together I have been begging him to take me to a Morgan Wallen concert. I love his songs solely because they make me feel emotions. I know that sounds cheesy but I wanted to go because Talkin’ Tennessee was one of the first songs Dawson sang to me in my dorm room when we were hanging out. He would always tell me that he loved me more than his hometown. AND finally, Redneck Love Song was our favorite song to listen to when we were driving at 2 AM on the Blue Ridge Parkway. To put it simply Morgan Wallen’s songs tell the story of our love story. So my birthday comes along and we go to see him. We got the VIP passes to the lounge which I couldn’t enjoy the full benefits of because I am not 21 but it was still a fun time and I got to eat cookies! We then made our way to our seats and honestly, they were probably the best seats in the entire arena. Larry Fleet opened first and as Dawson said in his article covering this concert, I wish I had done more research on him and learned some of his songs because he was actually really good.

This article is going to include details of how I convinced Dawson to let me and others start writing and get more involved in the Ok Listen Here platform. This story starts back when Dawson was a senior in college and he had just gotten this platform up and running. He had asked me to write an article about the experience I had growing up going to OU games. So I took about 20 minutes of my time while he was on the phone with his mom to write up an article. He posted it and the next day it had quite a few views. From then on he would ask me to write articles and I would occasionally do so but was soon running out of topics to write about.
As most people know who frequent this page often, Dawson and I are engaged and have been for about 7 months. We got engaged when I was 19 and he was 22 and now we are 20 and 23. The road that we have traveled has been full of bumps and it hasn’t always been easy to overcome the controversy surrounding us. By controversy I mean people thinking that I am too young to be getting married.
Going into college at eighteen years old I had no clue that I was going to meet the love of my life. They always tell you in high school to never date a senior when you are a freshman because you are inexperienced with love, they are in different parts of their life than you, etc. Well take it from me, be cautious about it but if you find someone you are interested in, here is your sign to go for it.
Yes, I am a social work major and no, I don’t go around with a backpack snatching babies from their families. So this article is a bit personal and about my journey to finding my passion.
I have to preface this “Sydney Chronicle” with when I was a kid I was a very imaginative little girl and I still am. Everyone in my family always told me that I would end up being a writer and well Ok Listen Here gives me that outlet. So now on to this crazy story. When I was about 3 years old Hurricane Katrina hit Mississippi and me and my family went down there because my uncle lived down there. I don’t remember much from this trip but I do remember that while we were there, I found my dragonfly family.
So as the page/blog moves on I have decided that some articles could be about tips and tricks about puppies or just life in general. And some articles may just be a funny story about me, Memphis, Dawson, or literally anything else, because why not it is my page after all and I do love to entertain the people. To start it off I shall relive the horrible day that was my first day of college. It was the worst. I felt like I was living in that book that every kid reads growing up “Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day”. Now some of y’all may have read this on my Facebook or if you’re very close to me I called and told you about it but here goes nothing.
As everyone who frequents Ok Listen Here knows, we love Australian Shepherds around here. In this article I have decided to talk a little bit about the pros and cons of having an Australian Shepherd. Some of you might have already been considering getting one, some of you not so much. And for those of you who don’t like dogs, why are you on a puppy blog?
This is the official first article of Puppy Tips! Okay, so you just got your puppy home, and you don’t know what to do. This little thing is peeing and pooping everywhere. What in the world do you do?! The best advice I can give you is do NOT get mad. I know a lot of y’all have raised dogs and might say “oh well you should shove their noses in their mess and yell at it then throw it outside”. DO NOT DO THAT! By doing that, you are terrifying your puppy and also giving it attention. Even “bad” attention will reinforce the behavior. Because it is just a pup it doesn’t know the difference between “good” attention and “bad” attention, it’s all just attention. This will be a common lesson throughout this page.
