Summer Time

So for those of you who don't know Build A Bear fell through so I have still been searching for a job. No luck! :( I have no idea why!? This is for sure how I didn't see my summer. I saw my summer working and having a blast with friends but with no job and no income I can't really do what I wanted to do. I just am trying to see the bright side that Heavenly Father knows best. I love being at home with my mom! She is amazing and always puts me to work. I woke up the other day and there was a list of things to do. I have been working on it for 2 days now so it is fun to get stuff done for her. I sing while I do it and apparently my brother today could hear me on the front porch with the door closed. Yes I was belting it out. 
I ran the 5K! YAYA!!! I did it in 30 min. which is about a 10 min mile. That is my fastest mile and I got to do it with an incredible boy! ;) Yes, Preston ran it with me. It was fun to have him there and he is really good at supporting me and helping me. 
Then lets see just job hunting still. Sunday I spoke in church and from what people say I did an incredible job. I felt like I sped read through the whole thing but everyone said it was awesome! Monday Preston and I went to the mall and then back to his house for filling out applications. Tuesday we (Preston and I)went up to Bountiful to see my Grandma and Uncle Steve. It was seriously the best. I loved it! My uncle is seriously an incredible person and I love him so much.  My cousin Brad came over and almost beat Preston up for making a U diss. 
My birthday is Saturday along with my Grandma's 90th birthday party. It is incredible to think she has lived 90 years. She is an incredible example to me. I love her so much! She is so funny and witty. Yes she has still got it for the most part. I can't complain about my life. I love it! Yes at times it is hard but I just remember that Heavenly Father is in charge. I don't want to turn 20 but am excited to be an adult! My dad can no longer say I am nineteen teen teen teen and that I am just a teenager. He is in India and gets home on Friday! Can't wait to see him! He is such an amazing man! I love all the men in my life and their examples to me and the women. I have such awesome people to look to and get advice from. Love Y'all.

Stinking It Up!

I for some reason really struggle with blogging. It shouldn't be that hard. I think sometimes I feel like I am writing to myself so I just give up writing on it. Catch up time: Preston's family is in town so we haven't really been able to hang out or go out together in awhile just us. It has been hard since that is when I get to really talk to him and get to know him. Family first though! Always! I have been learning how hard a relationship can be when it comes to communicating and learning to be patient with one another. I thought having a boyfriend would be easy but come to find out there are some hard things that we have gone through but luckily for us that has  made us stronger and appreciate each other more. We have just been seriously having a blast dating each other. We are going slow and enjoying every minute of it! He is an awesome boyfriend! Next would be talking about job hunting. All my friends and family have been so great in helping me find a job. When build-a-bear fell through I got a lot of support from my family. I have applied for a secretarial job at my friends work. I am also going to become a red cross volunteer then a friend of my parents said his dentists office is looking for a secretary now! So that might end up working out! I also have an old professor who wants me to do an internship with her. This has made me realize how important connections are when trying to find work.
I love running! I love to go (usually by  myself) and I am now running 2.2 miles in about 24 min. I am going to be running a 5k that proceeds go to supporting Crohns Disease which is a disease my uncle battled for years. I am excited to support that cause!
Life is great! I couldn't ask for a better family or friends. Everyone in my life has supported me through easy and tough times. I just can't wait to get busy so I stop wasting time this summer cleaning my room. LOL! I miss school but love the freedom of being able to do what I want instead of having my HW set up my schedule for me. I hope to keep this more updated. :) Love you guys!
