Influences

I never thought I would say this, but I am actually enjoying my classes. At least my medical terminology class. I really feel like the information I'm learning I can use in my day to day activities at work. I never thought I would actually enjoy going back to school after so long.. But the more I'm learning, the more I can see why people enjoy it so much.
These past few weeks I have become more aware of the choices I am making and the way they are shaping me into the adult I want to be. I know these crucial years in my life are really what makes me want to be a better person. Thank You to all of those that influence the person I am today. You truly are some of the best people I know. I hope you all have a wonderful 2009!

Church and Friends

I want to let everybody know how grateful I am for my calling as a Relief Society teacher. It seems like everytime I teach, I am preaching to myself and the things I need to accomplish. This week was no exception with the lesson being on Elijah and the restoration of the sealing keys to this earth. I have been telling myself for several weeks now that I need to get back to the temple. Thankfully I have great friends in my ward and we are planning to go this coming Saturday. It seems like everytime I am down, all I need to do is call one of my friends up, and they can always bring me out of my funk. I am truly grateful to have such close friends who know me so well. Of course I have to mention that this last weekend I truly made a fool of myself at a hypnotist show. According to my brother and friends there were many things I did to make them laugh for the next century... So to my family and friends may I always be able to entertain you at the cost of my dignity. Thanks:)

2009 here we come!

At the beginning of every year we set resolutions that we attempt to accomplish in the next 12 months. As I start the 09' year I am reminded of the goals that I set last year. I must say that I am pretty proud of myself. I finally got myself to go back to school. No I didn't lose the weight I wanted, but I do feel healthier in a general sense. I believe I have come to a general consensus with myself and where I am today. Now for my 2009 resolutions. I want to take a trip somewhere I've never been. Whether it be backeast to the church history sights or overseas to Greece. I would like to get myself completely out of credit card debt by this fall. Lastly, I would like to be able to move out of my grandparents. I have a lot to accomplish. But I know that through persistence and dedication these things can be accomplished.
