Smaller Things!

Ok so October is almost over I am sad to see it go, because the sun is going to start setting much earlier than it has been. But at least this year we had a good fall; all of the trees have been changing color especially in the valley which has been awesome.

I am still loving my institute class on Tuesday nights. Brother Wilcox is such an amazing teacher I am learning so much about the book of Revelation. I am also reading the book of Matthew in the bible and it is so cool to read it after I have been to Israel because now that I have been to Israel the stories are a little more clear. School is good I don't like going and taking notes but I am doing well on the homework and tests. So it makes me happy that I am not failing.

Church is good too! Especially Relief Society and Sunday school for some reason lately I have been getting a lot out the lessons! I guess it's because when I comment I am able to focus more on what the teacher is trying to get across. Sacrament meeting has been good as well, fast Sundays have been really good lately; and this month and last month we have has some really good talks. I have still been going to the Temple every week which has been awesome I am loving it. The Temple is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!

FHE activities have been fun as well this Monday we went to a corn maze and that was an adventure! Also last Saturday I went to the ward activity and that was a lot of fun; and then I went with April to the Jesters Royal and that was super fun, I laughed so much that my face was hurting by the end of the night it was really good! Also it has been fun getting to know people that are new to the ward. I really do like all the people that are in my ward!

When I went to do my visiting teaching today I decided that I was going to walk to her house, instead of driving; cause it wasn't too long of a walk to take, and walking is very good exercise! But as I was walking down the street that my grandparents used to live; I couldn't help but notice how small the yards and houses seemed now that I am older. I don't know why but when I was younger every yard seemed so huge, well when your smaller things seem a lot bigger. It did make me a little sad I guess because it also felt different. But it was nice to get out of the house and take a walk; and to walk through the leaves that have fallen off of the tress and hear the leaves crunch under my feet; and smell the crisp cool clean air, and to feel that Fall has come to the valley.

October!!

So last Monday we had sports night for FHE it was fun, I didn't play any sports, I just chatted with people. Then I had institute on Tuesday and school; school was alright I just had to take notes. Institute was fun though. Then went to work for the rest of the week it was also fall break for school, so no school on Thursday or Friday yay! Then Saturday was conference and it was awesome I got tickets for the afternoon Saturday session it was awesome!! Then I went with my two sisters and had girls night out we went to the Pie and then we went shopping and then we watched Fame. Fame was a really good show I loved it! Then Sunday watched conference both sessions, again it was amazing!

Then my mom came home from Disney Land and told us about her trip and then we went over to my aunts house for my cousins birthday then off to work I went! Tonight for FHE we were going to go to the capital and take a tour but then we stayed at the institute and played a game and then had ice cream. Tomorrow I have institute class it should be good. I also have a test this week I hope I do alright! I did go to the temple last Friday that was awesome, I wanted to go on Thursday but I woke up too late and so I couldn't go.

So it's finally October I love that it's October, I thought September would never end. I love that the air smells crisp and clean. In the valley we had some awesome thunderstorms and it snowed in the mountains. Fall and winter are going to be awesome except for the sun going down at 5pm!! Well I guess that's all that has happened since I last posted.

A Friend!

So Friday was a lot of fun I woke up went to institute then went to the temple. Went home then went shopping then to work. Then off to April's house to watch movies and eat pizza!!! Saturday cleaned house did visiting teaching then off to Relief Society Conference! Got to see a really good friend and then went to Leatherby's and other good friends came as well. So it was a really fun weekend!!!!!!!!

Well a good friend of mine from work moved back home to Canada. I haven't heard much from him, he was like a brother to me and now that he is gone, it's like he doesn't know me at all. So not fair, he said he would get on facebook more and we would be able to talk. Cause at work we would talk all the time, and now it's like we never were friends. What's up with that I really don't understand he was like an actual brother to me I really loved the brother, sister relationship that we had. How come now that he is gone that he talks to all his other friends that he left behind, but doesn't talk to me. It really makes me sad that he won't respond to my messages now. I really valued his friendship!!

I guess it's another reason why I have such an amazing visiting teacher, she makes me feel included and I don't feel so left out in the ward and outside of the ward. She is a true friend and lets me call her whenever I feel like it, and she doesn't get sick of me or make me feel like she needs to hang out with this person more when I am around. She is like another sister to me, just like 6 of my other bestest friends are!

Utah Fall!!

So winter is coming which will be exciting but I don't want the sun to set at 5pm; and the darkness to come. I mean don't get me wrong I love the winter season and I love Christmas; I like Thanksgiving and the snow! But I don't like it when the snow melts and it's just cold and dark! At least conference is coming and that is always so good and a good friend is coming for a short visit this weekend! School is over with for this week!

Also my visiting teacher is going to come over; and visit teach me and then we are going to play or have an adventure of some kind! Also I am going to go to the temple tomorrow so that is a bonus! I still really love my institute class and I wish could stay longer at FHE! I wish I didn't have to wake up for school. I wish I didn't have a headache right now.

Well fall is finally here in Utah well at least northern Utah, and I am excited for the leaves to change colors and to be able to have the windows rolled down because it's no longer hotter than 80 degrees! I love the way the air feels and smells it's so crisp and clean; and when we have thunderstorms in the fall it's awesome! Also Halloween is coming and I admit I like Halloween it's my 3rd favorite holiday! Well sorry the post is short I don't really have much else to say!

Laughter with Friends!!

So I have been going to the temple every week which has been awesome!! I am loving it!! It's also finally nice to have a really good friend in the ward; now I don't feel so out of place and it's also amazing that she likes to do things with me out side of church!!!!!!!!!!!!! She is awesome, and a true friend!!

School is good, work is not bad even though some days I just don't want to be there! It will be better when I can have my work hours from 8am to 4:30pm! Still hoping that something will happen so that I can change my work hours, any prayers would be helpful! I really need full time work!! It's so much fun going to FHE and going to Brother Wilcox's institute class! I don't like waking up for school though!

Saturday was a lot of fun, April and I went to a party then we went and got ice cream with a couple of guys in the ward, and it was so funny they thought that we were trying to trick them into a date with us! It was hilarious, ah it's fun to hang out with those two they really make me laugh a lot!! It was good to hang out with another good friend of mine at Barnes and Noble, we didn't buy anything which is amazing for us to do! But it was fun looking around the store I did find a lot of books that I want to buy though!! Well I am getting really sleepy so I am going to end my post now!!

Music!!

This one of my favorite songs it helps me when I am having a bad day!

Just A Ride Lyrics /Artist:Jem

Life, it's ever so strange
It's so full of change
Think that you've worked it out
Then BANG
Right out of the blue
Something happens to you
To throw you off course
And then you

Breakdown
Yeah you breakdown
Well don't you breakdown
Listen to me
Because

It's just a ride, it's just a ride
No need to run, no need to hide
It'll take you round and round
Sometimes you're up
Sometimes you're down
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
Don't be scared
Don't hide your eyes
It may feel so real inside
But don't forget it's just a ride

Truth, we don't wanna hear
It's too much to take
Don't like to feel out of control
So we make our plans
Ten times a day
And when they don't go
Our way we

Breakdown
Yeah we breakdown
Well don't you breakdown
Listen to me
Because

It's just a ride, it's just a ride
No need to run, no need to hide
It'll take you round and round
Sometimes you're up
Sometimes you're down
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
Don't be scared
Don't hide your eyes
It may feel so real inside
But don't forget it's just a ride

Slowly, oh so very slowly
Accept that
There's no getting off
So live it, just gotta go with it
Coz this ride's, never gonna stop

Breakdown
Don't you breakdown
No need to breakdown
No need at all
Because

It's just a ride, it's just a ride
No need to run, no need to hide
It'll take you all around
Sometimes you're up
Sometimes you're down
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
Don't be scared now
Dry your eyes
It may feel so real inside
But don't forget enjoy the ride

Fall Madness!

So I have a new visiting teacher and she is just awesome and the best ever! So I went boating with my ward which was so much fun, I got a darker tan which is always nice. We also had a BBQ which was yummy and I had so much fun with April! I went out on the boat twice and tubing is so much fun. It was good to get out and do something different for a change. I did also clean my room this month, which makes me so happy!

Well I thought I was over a guy that I was dating a month or so ago; but it turns out that I am not! But I am stronger than I seem. I will get through this, it will pass and probably sooner than I think it will. And I like two other boys in my ward; and with one of them it's really hard to be around, because a friend of mine likes him. So I say that I am a damsel, I am in distress and I will handle it; it will just be a little hard. But I know I need to go through this because it will help me in the long run!

So I started school last Thursday and it seems like it will be good, although half of the time this semester I will be so tired, I just need to get myself to bed earlier than I normally do. I am also going to FHE every Monday and going to work late shift. On Tuesday I have an institute class in the evening and it is a really fun class Brother Willcox is so funny and I am learning so much. I love my Tuesday night institute class! I also went to the temple this week which was amazing I am going to go every week. I am going to try to go on Thursdays so that I can sleep after school on Tuesday. Then I won't be so dead for work on Tuesday night.

I really hope I get my work hours changed from evening to morning soon I really need it with the way things are happening in my life and I really need full time instead of part time. It would just be the best thing ever to happen to me if I could work from 8am to 4:30pm!!!!!!!! Also summer is ending and that makes me so sad that the sun is going to set at 5pm again but I love the snow and the season that comes with it I just don't like the darkness that it brings, and the cold days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
