What a weekend! And it's Tuesday already...wow, time is just flying by! I've started the process of looking for a job when I get home...it's a long process, and probably difficult this year, what with the poor economy and all. Sigh... silly economy. We all suck. :)

So my weekend. Insanity to the max. But not really...mostly just fun! Friday was wonderful... I don't even remember what I did! Haha. OH WAIT.. It was Katie's bridal shower, so I helped prepare for that, then stopped by briefly, before I went over to Hilary's and had a homework/movie/tv party. It was good. Saturday morning I had a review session for my upcoming geography test.

Saturday afternoon and night were quite eventful! :) Tiff Tiff and I went to see Vocal Point on Saturday afternoon...probably the best show of theirs that I've seen! But I might be biased...for a few reasons. One, I know one of the people in it (he sits in front of me in D&C class with his wife and sister), and two, I was randomly chosen to be serenaded on stage! They sang "Grace Kelly" by Mika to me, and it was basically awesome! Another thing to cross off the bucket list!! So fun!

Then that night, I went to a basketball game with Hilary and Steph and Sara and some other people I didn't know until then. And it was awesome! It was such an intense game, but we ended up pulling through to beat the Air Force, and we won the conference championship! GO COUGS!

Sunday was great. Sunday night, Tiff and Rachelle and I had some fun with my camera and made a few ridiculous but awesome movies! Ah, such great friends! I love those two so much!
Welp, that was my weekend in a nutshell... Now...on to other things, I guess. Sorry this wasn't a profound post, but it was a rambling! I'll be back later on this week as I have time and as I think of things!

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...

Summertime is...over?!

Today is one of my last few days at my parents' house before I head back to BYU for my senior year.  The long road of college finally has a light at the end of the tunnel, and it looks reachable!  But this time next year, if all goes according to plan, I will be married and living in Brazil.  The last couple days have made me look back on my summer and think about all that has happened... So, this is going to be a long post, mostly because of pictures that are going to help me tell my summer 2013 story.  I came back to NH in April after winter semester ended, stayed for about a week and a half, and then I went to Brazil for 5 1/2 weeks.  And while I was there, some wonderful things happened..... Renato proposed to me at the Recife Temple the day I got to Brazil (the first time we'd seen each other in over 9 months), and I said yes!  So (finally) we are officially engaged and planning a wedding for July 22 2014, in Brazil! Our rings :) We ...

What do Mother Teresa and Martina McBride have in common?

Words of wisdom.  This is gonna be a long post, because of quoting a couple things... Mother Teresa of Calcutta said: "People are often unreasonable and self-centered.  Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives.  Be kind anyway. If you are honest, people may cheat you.  Be honest anyway. If you find happiness, people may be jealous.  Be happy anyway. The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow.  Do good. Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough.  Give your best anyway. For you see, in the end, it is between you and God.  It was never between you and them anyway." Martina McBride sang: " You can spend your whole life buildin' Something from nothin One storm can come and blow it all away   Build it anyway You can chase a dream   That seems so out of reach And you know it might not ever come your way Dream it anyway God is great but sometimes life aint good And when I...
