Life is good!!

Wow! what a great week it has been! Things are just going great! I decided to think of the top ten things to be grateful for this week....

1. The Sunshine--the sun has been missing for like the last 5 months, but it finally returned the last couple of days. It is so beautiful!! I love opening the windows and letting it all pour in the apartment!
2. The Praxis--ok i'm not really grateful for the actual Praxis, I am however grateful that I PASSED!!! I semi take back all the terrible naughty words I said about that test and the people who administer it. Not only did I get $80 back but I also don't have to take it again. YAY!! I'm also grateful for the holy ghost. I know I had his help during the test!
3. Nice insurance guys--my dad got it all worked out with his nice insurance guy so I will have a CAR next year!!! So happy!
4. my roomies!!-- I love them so much...they complete me!! :)
5. Getting up on time--It's SOO hard for me to get up on time on Tuesdays and Thursdays but yesterday, I was up on time and actually ON TIME to class!! YAY!!
6. Cleaning Checks--they suck, but they make me clean! (go figure) but I finally cleaned out under my bed for the first time this year. Larissa was sick of looking at all the little friends under there. :0 now it basically sparkles!! :)
7. Getting a goood chair and headset at work: yesterday was the first time in weeks that my headset has even stayed on my head! Not to mention the chairs. Tuesday my chair was approximatly 4 inches off the ground, also, on Wednesday my chair was so far reclined. But yesterday, my chair and headset were perfect. I even moved seats and they were still great ones. :)
8. Friday--I love Fridays....sleep in....good dinners....no work....and time with friends!
9. My family-- I just love them!! Easter weekend was great. We did our traditional 'easter trail'. My mom also made DELICIOUS food and we all spent time together. It was so much fun!
10. My Savior Jesus Christ-- I'm so grateful for my savior and the testimony that I have that he Lives! He knows me; He knows my thoughts, struggles and emotions. He knows because He has literally been there! He loves each of us individually. Conference was amazing and just proclaimed the fact that the Savior lives and He will come again! I'm so grateful I know that!

March Madness

{Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.}

Well said Ferris...well said

March was full of busy adventures...life is moving way too fast!!!!

.......{Aggies are WAC Champions!}.......


I loved going to all the Aggie games!! It's so great to be at such a wonderful school! I'm so blessed with this opportunity!

.........{Praxis Exam}.........

Worst day of my life. The people who run that exam don't really have a brain in their head I'm pretty sure!! I don't even know if I passed yet.

.......{Road Trip!!!}............

Oregon was AMAZING!!! For sure a memory we will all remember forever! The Ramsey family was so kind and hospitable. They put all five of us up for like seven nights..free of charge!! They are so amazing.

We went to the rose gardens, the lake, Multnomah falls, downtown Portland, exploring, the fish hatchery, the zoo, Taco Bell, Red Robin, Canon Beach, Tillamook cheese factory, etc, etc, etc....it was LEGIT!

.......{Dalli Llama Love}.........

The weekend after Spring Break, all of us room mates headed down to the Harri Krisna (aka Dalli Llama Temple) to participate in the anual color festival of LOVE.

We sang.... HARRI HARRI KRISNA KRISNA!!! then threw a ton of colorful dust in the air turning the air all sorts of colors. It was also LEGIT!! After we took our colorful selfs to good ol' Magleby's! oh Magleby's! good times.


.......{March Madness}.......
The actual basketball tournament resulted in me doing TERRIBLE in the Beckert family tournament. I'm pretty sure I took a solid last place....but Carlie Won!!! The first Payson Beckert winner!!!! YAY US!
So it's been some great times lately! Everything is going so good and I'm so grateful for everything I have!!!

oh passions

I need to have a passion.....

it used to be playing and teaching the piano but I don't really have the resources to do either of of those things....

If I could just be an artist...or a musician.....or maybe like a dancer....or a marathon runner....

HMMMMMM.....

How do you find a passion??????

Well I'll figure it out......

BLAH....

I hate stupid people...you shouldn't be allowed to be stupid and be in the same area as me!!! Grrr... Not like IQ stupid people...but people who are stupid at life...Granted I'm not the most brillant at life and ya I make mistakes...but really some people I just feel are so dumb!!

Anyway....I'm not really as angry as I sound...I'm just sitting here bored...waiting for my appointed in the education building...I discovered today that I really do want to teach. I've kinda always known it but for some reason today it hit me that that is what I'm supposed to do. I think back to all the people who have had an influence on my life...teachers, church leaders, counselors, advisors, friends, family members, neighbors....and i just want to be that for some one..even just for one person. Oh man I'm just excited for the future today (even if there will still be stupid people) I'm just ready to get out there and make something of my life instead of whining about stupid people! ha ha ha

I feel terrible for the people in Haiti...Looking at the pictures makes me want to go over and adopt every single one of the children who were left parentless. It breaks my heart to think of children everywhere in the world who live in orphanages. Someday I'm going to go to Haiti or Africa or just anywhere and give of myself at the orpahnages. And someday I'm going to adopt children who need a life. I watched the movie Invictus like a month ago....all I could think about was helping children who live in orphanges. I feel like that is another calling of mine in life. Each of us has so much good to offer and so much we can change. I hate that some people (including myself) sit around and just wish things would change without actually getting off their butts and doing something about it. I'm not made of money (in fact I'm broke) but I just feel like I need to start saving my money and trying to get out there and change kids lives. If not out in foreign countries then just right here with children who are less forunate.

Wow....I don't know where any of this is coming from I just started typing and it started coming....(also I don't know why this italized but I can't figure out how to change it..)

Moral of the story: My future is going to AAAAAMAZING! I just have to make it that way.. :)

Oh Birthday!!

Chad and Brittnay are the best! they came up to Logan on the 2nd to take me out for my birthday dinner! When I got home from work I saw this on my bed...

Then Brian and Larissa also came up..they're pretty amazing as well! We tried to go to Texas Roadhouse...failed....tried Bluebird...failed and then finally had sucess at Firehouse...soooo funnnn!! They are the best and I couldn't ask for better friends...THANKS GUYS!!!

(I don't have pictures because this is the night my camera kicked it..:( )

Oh Spring Semester

First of all why is it called Spring Semester??? It doesn't feel like spring out there!!

So last week was the first week of classes. For some reason I am having a hard time realizing that school is starting up again....hopefully it will hit me soon. So I had to drop out of my appreciating literature class...(really I just didn't want to take it...shhhh) also the final conflicted with one of my other finals. So it's been a mess trying to find an open class...but I got one...Child Guidance...should be interesting....WITH BRITTNAY!!

Also on Friday there was a FREE DASHBOARD CONFESSIONAL CONCERT!!! I have always wanted to see them in concert so I was PUMPED!!! So Brittnay and I drove down to Ogden. The concert was on 25th street which is so cccute! I would love to just own my own little shop there...except there were a billion of pubs. ha ha so anyway we stood there and waited and waited...then they came out and IT WAS AAAAAAMAAAZZING!!!! They played all the songs I love which was surprising because I thought they would just play their old stuff...but they didn't....So ffffun! To make it better we ran into our good friend Kalie and stood with her and her boyfriend...so good to see her!

I may lose my job...but hopefully not....

My camera broke so basically I am going to buy a new one today.... :)
