Happy Thursday!

I just finished booking the last hotel for my trip, so now I get to do the fun stuff- figuring out what we're going to do each day! And then we GO! I'm so excited for this!!!

Yesterday turned into an interesting day. I went to the mall with Rachelle and we bought some random clothes on sale. I love sales, and I think the last time I went clothes shopping was a long time ago...so this was good. While we were there, we popped in to Deseret Book and visited with Kevin for a little while. Always good to see him! But I still want to see a picture of him with Kirby. That would be funny! ;) After our mall excursion, we went to Macey's and picked up a cake and ice cream so we could have an impromptu roommate party with Katie later on. Dale at the bakery was kind enough to write on a cake for us! After this, I went out to dinner with David, a friend i haven't seen in like 6 months. I love Mexican food!

Our fiesta with Katie was fun! We just ate food and then took roommate pictures. It was funny though, because earlier, I'd texted to Katie to ask what her favorite kind of ice cream was...it was random. She told me, then asked why, and I told her I was taking a survey. Then she said she thought I was going to throw her something, so I texted back and said "Why would I do that?" HAHA, so it was great when we actually did do something...she had totally believed that I was just taking a survey! Then we took roommate pictures!





Pretty much it was a lot of fun!

In other news, I finished reading the Old Testament today! That felt great! And today is going to be filled with math homework, and crossing random small things off my to-do list. Woohoo! I took a dance test earlier, so I got to leave class way early, which means I got out of work way early too, so that worked out pretty well. Alright, this is it for now! I might be back this weekend!!

  1. Speaking of buying clothes, I have to get some pants for our trip. I have two pair and I think I'll need more than that for Alaska. Gotta go shopping, too.

Sometimes you think you've seen and heard it all. You look back on your life and think, "wow, I've been through everything." And you realize that you've been friendless, lost people close to you to the dreaded cancer, pretty much failed a class, missed work entirely, didn't know how you were going to pay your bills, been rejected by people you liked, felt lost and aimless, been rejected twice from the dream you've been dreaming, had the car die on you more times than you can count, and the list goes on. On the other hand, you've got amazing friends, the gospel in life, a positive and optimistic outlook, had the opportunity to be an EFY counselor, have an amazing family, travelled a ton, finally found what you want to do with your education, and the list goes on longer than the first. And then you think, again, "wow, I really HAVE been through everything!" And you think you know how to deal with anything that might come your way, because ...

Oh Happy Day!

So today I got and opened my mission call! I'm going to the Brazil Sao Paulo East Mission. I'll be speaking Portuguese. I report to the Brazil MTC on Wednesday, March 3, 2010. SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!

The end of an era

So in about an hour and a half, I'll take my last final at BYU until after my mission! Exciting! Bittersweet. This week has had a lot of ups and downs already. It's never easy saying goodbye, but it's harder knowing I won't just come back in September and see everyone again. Today was my last day on the job at Heritage Halls. Thursday will be my last day on the job at BYUB. Tiff and James both leave tomorrow, and Hilary and Courtney both left today. Alex left yesterday, so...after tomorrow I need to find people to play with that I don't normally play with. Oh well. On Sunday, I went over to Courtney's and Hilary's place, and we had a last hurrah before Steph left for home on Monday. She goes to Jerusalem next week! Saturday evening, I went to Salt Lake and met up with Emma Koller there, one of my good friends that I met at EFY when I was 14, and haven't seen her since...4 or 5 years ago! So it was awesome to see her and meet her boyfriend! ...
