My loot.

What do Jerrica and I do late on a Wednesday night when we are completely lacking motivation?
We go to Walmart and buy a treat.
Then, the next day....we go to the DI.
And we hit the jackpot.
Here's my loot.

Today in my Life.

Life. Sometimes it's good. Sometimes....not so much. Here's how mine is doing.

Today, I taught a science lesson. I also took a science midterm. Oh, and there was that spelling lesson that I taught. A little bit of a stressful day? Yup.

Did I get out of both my classes early today? Oh yes!

I miss him.

I found out recently that my current plan of graduating in May....might not happen. A bump in the road has come. What's going to happen? Maybe another semester in Logan. Maybe a switch in my student teaching. Maybe something else. I don't really know how this is going to effect my scholarship, housing, or anything really.

One thing that know is that I have a testimony that EVERYTHING happens for a reason and everything WILL work out in the way that it is supposed to. This is part of God's plan for me.

I changed my blog title back to what it was originally.

My mind likes to over think everything which can cause some issues. At this moment it's better, but not solved.

Institute was fabulous last night.

"You have the potential to become anything to which you set your mind." 
-President Gordon B. Hinckley

2 Nephi 10:23-24
23 Therefore, cheer up your hearts
and remember that ye are free to 
act for yourselves--to choose the 
way of everlasting death or the 
way of eternal life.
24 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, 
reconcile yourselves to the will of 
God, and not to the will of the devil 
and the flesh; and remember, after 
ye are reconciled unto God, that it is 
only in and through the grace of God 
that ye are saved.

Walked up to campus to be really productive.
Overcast.
Left my planner and a textbook at home.

The boy.

The boy with the red hair.

The boy who makes me feel like I am the most important person in the world.

The boy who sings whenever a song is playing.

The boy who lives in Sandy.

The boy who I want to talk to about eveything.

The boy I think about all the time.

The boy who loves being with his family.

The boy who understands me. Most of the time.

The boy who holds my hand in front of his friends and family.

The boy who puts a smile on my face.

The boy who honors his preisthood.

The boy who talks to me about important things. And things that aren't important.

The boy I make plans to do fun things with.

The boy who has a testimony.

The boy who sometimes says things to me in Spanish.

The boy who makes me want to be better.

The boy who has my heart.

For your Viewing Pleasure

Part 1

Part 2

Part 3

Material and Spiritual Things.

Sometimes there are things that I want. But alas, I am but a poor college student just trying to feed myself and get enough sleep. So, just for the fun of it, here are a couple things that I currently want. These aren't in any particular order.

A Pair of Chacos.
A Terabyte External Hard Drive.
Hundreds of Children's Books.
A Haircut.
Colored Skinny Jeans.
Hawaii Sandals.
Ink for My Printer.


Now, on to more important things.
Today is Sunday and I just want to say that I am so grateful for my life. I'm grateful for all the things that have happened in my life. I know that I have been blessed and that my trials and experiences have made me into the woman I am today. I am grateful for the people in my life. My family, friends, and that boy who currently has my heart. I'm grateful that these people love me for the weird, imperfect person I am. I am grateful that I am at USU. I love Logan and I love the program I am in. I am so thankful and quite amazed that I will be done in less than a year. I am grateful for a Heavenly Father who loves me and knows me. I am grateful that he puts up with this flawed daughter of his. I am thankful that he is constantly forgiving me for the many mistakes that I make. I am thankful that he has a plan for me and that even though I don't know what it is, he is guiding me in they way I need to go. I'm grateful that I can talk to him whenever and where ever I want. I'm grateful that he sent his son to this earth to live and die for me. I'm grateful for the chance I have to be a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I am thankful for the knowledge that I can be with my family forever. I am grateful for my faith, even though it isn't perfect, I am trying my hardest. I'm grateful for prophets who are instruments in the Lord's hand to guide us and warn us. I am grateful for every opportunity and everything that I am blessed with.



Awesome hail storm. Yes, I played in it.

Isn't that beautiful?
