I'm really into this whole blogging thing, but I have really no idea as to what I should write about. I know, it's a little confusing. So until I have something super awesome I think I should blog about, I'll just use ideas from searching. One idea I found was about writing something like a letter to myself and then answering back in a year.
So, right now, life is pretty great. Really. I am so blessed and grateful for that.
I am loving school - what's new though! I always have I think. This semester is about over so I'll be heading home for the summer, and for good! I have to take a few classes at UVU this summer in Orem, but then I'll be starting the education program this fall at the Wasatch campus. I'm actually really excited for it and for my classes in the program.
My family is also super great, but I miss them like C R A Z Y when I'm away from them. I called my mom today after church and asked her what she was doing. She said, "We're going to have a cook out. I wasn't going to tell you though." She knew I would miss it, and I'm sad I did. But I'll be home soon. :)
Of course, I like to do the things that will make me a great wifey (or so I am hoping) one day. I love baking and cooking, but it's more fun to do it for more than one person. I LOVE babies. I don't think I would really be able to have one like anytime soon, assuming I get married some day, but still. I'm practicing some parenting skills I guess you could say! I'm also excited to move back home and to help my mom with a garden. I'm loving the clean-eating stuff, so it'll be cool to grow some of my own veggies. But I still die for like anything peanut butter and chocolate...
Ohhh!! And along with the clean-eating stuff (and when I say that, it just means I do my best). I love how it makes me feel. And working out is still a great joy for me. See what I mean by preparing to be a good little wifey? Cooking/baking some somewhat healthy foods, going to the gym, loving babies, graduating soon, church stuff...ya know. I think I could do a pretty good job. wink wink ;)
But what about in a year? What will I be doing except the same things I am doing now? Like, I'll probs be studying for some finals in a years time, just as I am doing now. Will I be preparing to teach? Will someone special be in my life? Will I still feel so entirely blessed and loved, but still feel like something is missing or will I be really accepting of my life? I'm not sure. But I am pretty sure I'll still be doing well.
And, ya know, everything else is pretty good too. I'm doing state dairy ambassador stuff, teaching tumbling, and just hanging out.
Anyways...here's a quote from Jeffrey R. Holland from the Liahona magazine in 2006. It is kinda directed towards new members, but even the title says "What I Wish Every New Member Knew - and Every Longtime Member remembered."
He says,
"But the tests of our life are tailored for our own best interests, and we will face the burdens best suited to their own mortal experience. In the end we realize that God is merciful as well as just and that all the rules are fair. We can be reassured that our challenges will be the ones we needed, and conquering them will bring blessings we could have received in no other way."
Seriously such a great quote. I feel so blessed!
We'll see if anything changes in a year! :)
