This semester has been a growing experience for me, that's for sure.

I still haven't completely figured out why I've experienced the things that I have, but I'm learning as I go.

I'll be honest. There's a huge chunk of me that is like that pre-pubescent child. Let me explain before your mind wanders.

I am still working on who I am as a person. There have been moments in my life where I'm like YES I've figured myself out! And then something happens and I'm back to square one. I've learned a lot this past semester about myself and such. It's very interesting learning more about the person you spend all of your time with.... that person being yourself. I think the stuff I'm learning is more on the spiritual side and in the dating world.

I've learned that I am very stubborn and I don't like appearing vulnerable. I like looking like I'm independent and I can do absolutely everything on my own. I don't like asking people for help. But I've also learned that it's ok to appear that way because no one can do it on their own. It's just hard to transition.

I've also learned that prayer works. I haven't ever been the best pray-er. In my life, I usually pray when something is going wrong. That's terrible of me. Recently though, I have prayed and I have received some peace that reassures me that God knows what he is doing.

Another thing I've learned about myself is that I stress very easily and I have a lot of feelings. My emotions like to jump out of my control. A lot. I'll be completely content and then something will happen and my stomach has dropped and I feel sick. I'm not bipolar I swear. I think I just have more emotions than I thought ha

SUMMER IS COMING. Things are great :) I'm just learning. But aren't we all? :)

New job.
New apartment.
New roommates.
New experiences.
New friends.

I usually don't enjoy change but right now, I'm embracing it and I can't wait to see what happens.

Alright children. The best piece of advice I can give and it's been adapted as my life motto is:
dont give up. have no regrets.

this is what i want.

Hello people. So today I've been listening to the LDS Hymns of Worship Pandora station while I've been at work. I've decided I'm going to listen to this everywhere I go. I feel so calm and at peace when I listen to it. I want to be better. Better at life. Better at this gospel. Better at school. Better at making friends. Just.... better. I haven't been completely happy lately. I've just kinda.... been here. ha All I do is go to school and work. So these are the things I'm going to do. 1. I'm going to read a General Conference talk once a week. 2. I'm going to pray every morning and night on my knees away from my bed. 3. I'm going to read Emily Freeman's book Becoming His and apply it to my life. 4. I'm going to read the scriptures once a day. 5. I'm going to attend the temple once a week. Alone. 6. I'm going to do one act of service a day. At least. 7. I'm going to put myself out there more. Talk to anyone. ...

Adventures is Out There: England Style Part I.

May 26-27, 2014  Up at 7:30am. Packed and ready to go :) my mom was having a minor heart attack about me leaving. We met Kinsey at some gas station so that we could all drive to the airport together! Once we were at the airport I realized that my mom was being VERY chill compared to Kinsey's mom. Her mom had printed out about a million sheets of information on scams travelers should avoid and everything. Also she told us that the number one rule we HAD to follow was "don't talk to strangers and don't make eye contact when you're walking on the streets." She said it was our homework for the flight to memorize all of the scams as well . We said of course Lisa. Did we actually study it? For about a minute. But then we were distracted by some guy that wouldn't stop talking to us. He said he was good pals with Uchtdorf. So we broke the number one rule and we were still in Salt Lake.  Finally we boarded. Our first flight was from Salt Lake to Seattle. Wasn't...

It has been one whole year since finding out about something that changed my life and my family forever. I can't believe it's been a year. What a long, rough year. But it was full of so many blessings. When I found out about my dad, I thought my life was over. I couldn't even believe what was happening. For the first four months, I was in a state of depression that I never thought I would get out of. My poor roommates had to deal with my dead self and I'll be forever grateful for them because they did. I felt like I was carrying the weight of the world on my shoulders. I felt responsible for my family. After about four months, I started to feel happy again about little things and I started seeing some of the blessings in my life. Once summer hit, I thought I was back to my old self because I had such a blast this past summer. That, in and of itself, was a MAJOR blessing. It made me realize that I do have friends that care about me and that there are things in life tha...
