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.

To be or not to be...

...in this case, it is not the question but rather the answer. Today in Church a talk was given that brought up something important to me.  I am a "list person".  I have so many lists, because that is how I stay organized.  The most frequent list I make is a to-do list, generally before I go to bed for the next day (yes, I still have nightly planning sessions, hahahaha, picked that up from the mission!).  But in this talk, the speaker talked about how we like to-do lists because we can check things off as we finish.  But have we ever thought about a "To be" list?  So that got me thinking.  And tonight for my scripture study, I was pondering over this and decided that I also needed to make a "Not to be" list.  And these are lists that will stay with me for life, as I will never be perfect and will always be working on becoming more like Christ.  Because that is the ultimate goal of a "to be" list.  So here is the result of my study: T...

10 Things I love about Hannaford

So originally I was going to do this in sarcasm...but then decided that I could actually come up with 10 things (in no specific order) I like about my job. Even though being a cashier at a grocery store is not ideal, it's a job, and...well, you'll see. 1. Going on break with my dad sometimes. Because, you know, we work in the same store. It's pretty cool. 2. I love the people I work with soooooo much! Mainly the ones during the day, because I don't know any of the high school kids that work evenings, because I rarely work evenings. 3. Being the "party animal". nuff said. 4. Watching a cashier ID someone for alcohol, and him telling us that he doesn't even have a photo ID since his license was taken away for DWI. Yeah, maybe he should rethink his purchase... 5. Now when I hear the name of a vegetable, I automatically think of its PLU. Dates: 3047. Cabbage: 4069. Bananas: 4011. Tree Ripe Peaches: 4044. Eastern Peaches: 4403. Nectarines: 4378....

"What do you want for Christmas?"

This question is asked countless times during this Christmas season, and is one that has recently been asked of me a few times.  Since my birthday was recent, I heard a few times "what do you want for your birthday?" too.  And it has left me thoughtful... Here, I could talk about how we need to forget the materialism of Christmas and focus on the real meaning, how it isn't about getting but it's about giving, about how we need to love each other more...basically, I could give you any kind of canned, stereotypical answer in response to this subject, but these are not the thoughts I've had! My thoughts have been simple, and I always give the same answer: "I don't want anything".  And then people would push me into saying something, but I literally couldn't (and still can't) come up with anything I need, or even want.  What does that mean?  Life is great. :)  It means that I am satisfied with my life right now...yeah, I've still got questi...
