Lately I have been thinking about the Atonement of Jesus Christ. I have finally realized or I should say comprehended what the Atonement is. I have realized that Jesus Christ knows me (literally). I didn't understand that before but He KNOWS Me. He knows my fears, strengths, weaknesses, pain, and everything I go through. Today in Sacrament Meeting a girl in my ward gave her talk and used the footprints in the sand poem. That is what Christ's atonement is for. He carries us in the lowest times of our lives. He has carried me. He has never left me alone. I never understood that until my Tetons Trip and for some other things that have been going on in my life it hit me hard. I am trying more to rely on my Savior. To have Him carry my burdens and help me through the rough patches. We all need the atonement whether it is for forgiveness or just for some understanding. I have been trying more to pray to my Savior about helping me through the trials that I have faced lately. And I can say that He has carried me, comforted me, and given me strength to keep moving. I am so grateful to my Savior.

Who Says!
Lately I have been listening to the song Who Says by: Selena Gomez. It is my new theme song. Some of the lyrics are: I wouldn't wanna be anybody else. You made me insecure. Told me I wasn’t good enough. But who are you to judge when you’re a diamond in the rough. I’m sure you got some things
You’d like to change about yourself But when it comes to me I wouldn’t want to be anybody else. I really like these lyrics it echos how I have been feeling lately. In junior high and high school there were some people who made fun of me and let me tell you it was hard. I was confused about who I was and why people were treating me this way. I finally realized that I don't want to be anybody else. I like who I am.
The next set of lyrics that I love are: I'm no beauty queen. I'm just beautiful me.......Who says, who says your not perfect. Who says your not worth it. Who says your not perfect...Who says your not beautiful. The reason why I love these lyrics is because I have finally felt beautiful. I have slowly been losing the weight that I gained a year ago. I know I wasn't obese but I was overweight and didn't feel good anymore. This song is my new theme song. I am going to try to remember that I am beautiful and who cares what people say. You are the only one that matters. I have finally realized that. I am no longer trying to get the approval of others because that is impossible. I am just going to work on loving myself and getting my approval which is possible.

Finals are over!
Today is a great day because FINALS are over!! No more school! I can now enjoy the rest of my summer vacation! I am so pumped. I can also catch up on sleep and maybe watch some chick flicks. I have endless possibilities! I got a 77% on my comprehensive final which is awesome for me! Now all I need to make this week is a letter from Andrew! He must be super busy which is great but at the same time I love getting his letters. I am still coming up with ideas for my list of 25 things. It is a working progress. I think that is all for now.
