Oh bugger....

Just packing up my room again for the year. And writing another letter to a best friend.  I have more than one! :)
Oh music it makes my life happy,
Listening to Rooney- When did your heart go missing. In love with this song for the longest time. Trust me I can't get over some songs I find.
Off for the rest of my day...yay!
I'm a nerd as people say when I tell them I play D&D but its fun and I'm going to play it again tonight so :p
And I am going to eat my lunch now and be happy!
Woot!

Oh FHE

It was my last FHE with the UVU 12th Ward. It was fun we had a marshmallow war! Flour covered marshmallows!!! Woot! It was a lot of fun. I will have to get a photo from it. :D Candice was being silly. lol  I will miss that ward, until next summer. I will return! :)

Then I went home and chased a little black bunny rabbit that has been living in our neighborhood that the neighbors on the corner have given up on. They just eventually stopped trying to find a way to stop him from leaving their yard. It really isn't that hard to take care of a rabbit is it? I have never had a pet so I don't know. I do know that tonight I was SOOO close to catching that Rabbit! Grr... When I pulled up in the driveway some of the kids from across the street were trying to catch the silly thing. So I decided to help them. We chased that rabbit around in circles! it was fun, but I thought I had him....alas I failed. Until next time Blacky! (Mom named him Blacky even though he has brown spots mixed in the black.

Well after my Red/Blonde haired sister and I made some popcorn and had fun being dorks...which I made her laugh because I was feeling indifferent to my personality and was making strange voices and laughing. It was fun, I enjoy those times with her. Mom finished her phone call and we all had scripture study with dad.
We just started over as a family in the Book of Mormon. It still amazes me that the lord had Angels appear to Laman and Lemuel so many times and they still  ended up murmuring and complaining. I just cannot fathom the fact that an Angel appeared before them and they still chose to forget what they had been taught. But "there must needs be opposition in all things" right? And there are many many other stories like that where an angel appears and they don't care. One day it will all make perfect sense. :)

So mom, my sis and I started watching Arsenic and Old Lace together. It is hilarious! I love it!  I have only watched half of it because I was on my way to bed but it is good and I cannot wait for the show itself when school starts! Woot!

Well I'm going to go to sleep and I will go running in the morning.
Ciao!

Friday the 13th!

My last post was a little too mellow...eh...

Anyways so I went to Ephraim yesterday and I am running sound for a pageant. Yeah I just remember working pageants in high school and remembered that I didn't particularly like the people who ran them cause they treated us like we were dumb and wanted immediate reaction time to everything when sometimes it takes a second to get a task done. Geez! I just need to remember to put on a happy face and deal with it when I am working with these people. Its really hard sometimes...trust me! well for me anyways and I usually get along with people! So yeah that was ok. Then they sprung a saturday morning rehearsal on us at 9Am so now I have to leave tomorrow morning at like 6am to get there on time.
Because I love you all my friends who invited me to that summer party that happens to be today and everyone wants me to be there. Well you got it. I'm coming but no crying when I leave early! :P I actually found out we would have had rehearsal today as well if it wasn't for budget cuts on the pageant budget. So you are lucky I decided to drive home to see you people.

And I got a letter! Woot! It was a wonderful letter and I loved it and I freaking love each letter that comes because it is always getting better. Its funny how before I was the one helping him and then he was the one helping me and now our letters have great timing to come just when we need to remember better our purpose in life or just remembering to read the scriptures and I could list many more but I won't. I just have to say I know for a fact that when a young man devotes his life for two years to serve the lord, he is definately with out a doubt blessed in so many ways. And its a neat experience to see friends close to you change and see their joy in serving those people who don't know the truth just yet. :)

Well I gotta start packing for school now because I'm going to be quite busy next week just packing. Lighten the load now!

And if I remember I'll let ya know about the Pageant...sigh...sometimes you gotta bite your tongue!

Ciao!

Summer

It has been one long summer. A good one, but a slow long summer. I've learned alot about myself.
It has also been my first summer with out him.
I miss him. One more summer to go.
I move in a week and a half and I am going back to Snow College.
This year will be awesome. This year will be better than last year.
I just hope you know? I hope.
