This One is For the Girls

So it has been a tough week for me. I have been super busy and wasn't able to really get out and work out except for on Saturday I went running. I have been thinking a lot lately and asking the question: "Why?" I was pretty down on myself Friday night because there were some boys who weren't really making life easy on me. It was like every word out of their mouths you would think: "Really? Did that just come out." I had a really bad attitude about men on Friday night which was bad because the next day I had a blind date with someone that Jordan and Rachel wanted to set me up with. After I came home and thinking about it I thought wait why do I care. It is their loss not mine. I can do better. That is what I kept telling myself.

Saturday rolled around and i had such a fun time on the double with Rachel and Jordan. They are amazing and I don't know how Jordan knew when he asked me a few weeks ago to do this that I really needed to feel special again. I had so much fun. I have been doing a lot better at thinking this is just for fun don't stress about the future. That has helped me enjoy going on dates. We went mini golfing Jordan and Rachel style and lets say my date and I kicked trash!!! haha. Then before that we went to Applebee's for lunch. So I just want to let the girls out there know who might be struggling with not feeling special that there is one who knows you. He loves you and knows when you need pick-me-ups. To those girls who think why am i not being asked out or why won't that boy like me? Lets just say between us it is their loss of not getting to know you. Life is too short to worry about them. I am so grateful to my Savior for knowing me and sending the people in my life when I need them the most. I am so blessed to have an amazing family who will always love me. Just a quick shout out to Debbie, my mom, Abby, Rachel, and Jordan who have been my examples and friends and who have helped me realize that it is okay to have fun and that it is always the boys' loss for not getting to know you. :)

Life As I know it

This semester has pretty much been crazy! I drive every Tuesday/Thursday up to Layton to the Weber Davis Campus. It has been draining to drive up there and then going back to UVU to get those classes done. Luckily my parents have supported me through all of it. Still no letters but that is okay. Life goes on. I am loving my new calling! It has gotten me super involved in my ward which has been so good for me. I am going to more activities, meeting new people, and making new friends. I am in a Dating and Courtship class which has proved to help me to mature and figure out more about myself. I have had not only family but friends trying to set me up which has been so funny. I take 2 night classes which is what is the right word here............long. There ya go it is long. Oh did I mention Monday was the best day I have had in a long time. I got to go behind the scenes of the Conference Center with my Uncle Escott and cousins: Zack, Dusty, Keenan, and Abby. My mom and Trevor and Heidi and last but not least my Tio Omar. He is an amazing example of being very classy and respectful to women. I also got to eat delicious Uruguayan food with my family and cousin Danny. It was delicious to have Empanadas again.

My friends are still getting married like crazy but I am so happy for them. I am also loving Once Upon a Time. It is my new favorite T.V. Show! For all those who haven't seen it you need to watch it ASAP!!! Overall Life is good and I am loving working hard and hopefully will see good grades at the end of this semester. It is the papers that are going to kill me in every class. I know that I can survive it. By the way did I mention I have incredible roomies. They are seriously the best. I have also been so grateful to my sister for being such a great example of mother and wife to me. She is amazing. Well I got to get back to the paper.

Ciao

Long Time Again

Lets just say that my life has been hectic lately. I have been trying to find time to not only do homework but workout and spend time with family. I have felt lately that a lot of my teenage years have been so focused on school I have forgotten how to just let loose and be crazy. Slowly but surely I have been going to Ward Activities thanks to my new calling as Co-Chair of Ward Prayer which has been a blessing in disguise. I have also gotten even more involved at school with activities and the Mentors. I am currently driving up to Layton every T/Th for a class I need to apply for the Respiratory Therapy program in October of 2012!! FINALLY!!!!!!! I am so excited for that. I am applying for jobs at BYU and internships pretty much wherever.

The greatest thing ever is now I am wanting to be set up with people. It is amazing. I really never liked being set up but now I pretty much tell everyone and anyone if you know someone I would love to go out and party! I also love having my cousin at BYU. She has been getting me involved not only in workout classes but with her roommates. She is the sweetest to do that and invite me. I love spending time with my niece and nephews. They are the cutest. My favorite activity of late is going to Rachels and playing with Madison and her Barbies and now she has a new room so I will need to go check that out. That is me as of late I am going to try and post more. Love ya'll! Oh by the way my sister is now 30!!! And I am so grateful to her for praying for me to come to my family! Also Trevor and I are the new family historians. Ask us anything we know.
