...courage...

so i FeEl like i am usually ... no always... a positive, chill and 'go with the flow' type of person. I internalize my thoughts and feelings. I don't usually share those feelings and while, to some, this is confusing, frustrating and hard because they can't read me... its what i do and who i am. I heard a quote the other day that said, "courage is the willingness and ability to speak your thoughts and feelings" I LoVE this! so today, i'm stepping out there.. being alittle more courageous and speaking my feelings. TruE feelings....

I
am
T.i.R.E.d!

tIRed of being ConFused all the time.... Not UnDErsTAnding one other
TirED of playing the gAme... starting the GaME oF DAtiNg all over again
tiREd of going too fAst.... going too slOw... not going anYWhEre
TiReD of being torn apart from people i CArE about... being told "it doesn't feel right", "I don't want to hold you back", "we should date other people"
TiRed of GUaRdIng my HeaRT
tiReD of telling guys "you're a really good friend.. but nothing else"
TiREd of running..... chasing.....crying..... waiting.....
tiReD of wondering "is it me or him?"
i aM just alittle t.i.R.E.d!

So... what do i do about this... well let me just tell you! you MoVe on!!! "the optimist turns problems into opportunities. The pessimist turns opportunities into problems"

I know i have wrote about this before, but I KNOW every experience and person that is put into my life is for a reason. We cannot see the full spectrum and because of this.. its hard, painful, sad, and causes a lot of tears... but Heavenly Father knows! Heavenly Father cares and knows what I and everyone else needs to experience in their life!

"when you are compelled to give up something or when things that are dear to you are withdrawn from you, know that this is your lesson to be learned right now. But know also that, as you are learning this lesson, God wants to give you something better." ahh so true..LOVE IT!

My BUtt Rocker friend, MJ and ST. George




So here are some halloween pics of me and JEff! People never knew what i was ( i was supposed to be a hippie) and so i just said YES to whatever people asked ... like an 80's girl, one of Jeff's groupies, an exercise girl... :) whoppss.... maybe next year i will get my costume together NOT two hours before. Can i just say that having Jeff living so close has been great! He is such a great friend and it has been a blessing for me to have a BFF so close! He is so easy to talk to and gives great advice! Thanks buddy!


okay.. so i have seen the MJ movie twice now and LOVE it!! oh my gosh Michael Jackson is an amazing singer, performer, choreographer, dancer and person! This movie is a must see if you havn't seen it! It just shows what kind of person he really was (no matter what they all say!) and he really was such a sweet and loveable man! I gained a ton more respect for him and after seeing the movie i went and downloaded three of his songs...ones i had never heard before.. hence the new playlist!


And lastly... ST. GEORGE trip with the girls!! This last weekend, Dani, me and her two friends, Heather and Karen took a trip to St. George! On Saturday we ran a 1/2 marathon through the canyon and it was gorgeous!! it was about 75 degrees.. so WARM and the red rock canyon is just BeaUtiFUl! I love that place! After the race we went back to the motel and swam in the pool and went in the jacuzzi to massage our sore muscles!! And then we went to the canyon and the girls rock climbed! pretty hard core i know!

While in St. George we ate some pretty dang good food. The Bear Claw Restaurant was soo good! So we all ordered something different and then split our food into fourths and rotated our plates so we each got a little of everything!! It was genius! Blueberry pancakes, apple spice pancakes, artichoke heart pennini, and smoked turkey pennini!! YUM!!! Then a little later we were hungry again (we are very active girls!) and so we went to the ORanGe PeEl and got a yummy smoothie and then we went to Leo's and got some yummy tacos and chips and salsa!! YUM!! Thank you St. George!

the joy of dying!

Sorry if this is morbid.. but recently I have been thinking a lot about death and all of its complexities yet the simplicitiy of it! In its simpliest form, I know who I am, Why I am Here and Where I am going and Why I am going there. It is a beautiful and calming thing to know this! I feel deeply blessed to have this knowledge and to know these simple answers to the most complex questions. I wish everyone had this same knowledge and understanding!






*Side Note* My personality is very earthy, where I physically feel the saddness of others. I think this why recently I have been thinking about death. Four years ago my dear friend, Jordan, died in a car accident. It was the first time I had to deal with something so unexpected and so emotionally painful before. I know people have similar experiences of loved ones dying all the time and it makes me so sad when they don't know where their loved one is going after death or why their loved one had to leave them. It makes me hurt to know that some people think they will never see their loved ones again. Can you imagine? Saying goodbye.... or not being able to say goodbye... for FOREVER! NEVER seeing them again?? Why would we be on this earth to create relationships, learn to love and be loved, have a family of our own... to have it destroyed the minute we dye? It just doens't make sense.


Recently a girl in our ward unexpectedly died from a seizure. She was my age! It has just made me think about my purpose here and how Heavenly Father has a plan for each of us. This girl in my ward must have fulfilled her purpose and fulfilled all that Heavenly Father wanted her to! She completed her mission! This makes me so excited and anxious to go HOME and have my MISSION completed! :) What joy! What happiness!


One of my favorite quotes from conference was when President Monson said, "We are all in this together. Play YOUR part well!" I love this! It is so true. We are ALL in this together. WE are all trying to get to the same place. WE are all working our hardest to complete our mission! We must help out each other because in the end we are all going to the same place!! AHH LOVE IT!

Ahh Autumn!!



I love this time of the year! The fall colors are changing, its still sunny but cool, little kids wear cute little outfits, you get to carve funny faces on vegetables, people pay to get themselves scared and have heart attacks, the canyon is beautiful, its conference time, and it's Megan's Birthday!


Jordan and I drove up Big Cottonwood Canyon and this was the result! Beautiful FaLl CoLoRs! It was so pretty and there was this pretty lake to walk around!


It's amazing how Heavenly Father gives us all these amazing colors of different shades, pastels, tones and brightness to contrast with the WHITE snow! I think it's pretty cool when snow finally comes and all you see is the color around you becuase everything else is white!




This year for Megan's birthday we went to the Thai Kitchen!! Yummy Pineapple Curry and Sticky Rice and Mangos!! It was way good!! I Love how each year we go to a different ethnic food place for Meggi's birthday! Thanks and Happy Birthday!

With my cute preggo sista Sarah! She is the cutest Preggo girl ever!


The birthday girl and Dani!
We hiked the Timp Caves with Melissa and Paul when they came up last weekend! It was a ton of fun!



The gang! The Caves are pretty much amazing!


Being sneaky!


Love the CoLoRs!!!


Eva, Bailey and I went to this fun Autumn Festival! There were so many cute little kids in their Halloween outfits... adorable!

Danielle and I traveled up to the great city of Park City and rode the Alpine Coster! It was soo much fun! What a rush!!! We almost peed out pants!

Going up....


Love her!

lucky girl


Italy 2007

So I’m sitting outside Starbucks (no not with a drink) on State Street and 5900 South. It is the most beautiful September 19th day ever! Sunny… windy… cool… HOT! I absolutely LOVE people watching.. . but even more I love listening to their conversations and analyzing their daily life, their struggles and happiness! There are two ladies sitting next to me sipping their lattes talking in Spanish… dang it! I can’t ease drop… hmm there’s a man crossing the street with a long ponytail, green tank-top and bear belly, A dad with his son in soccer cleats, woa! A “Just Married” car, an old lady with 3 dogs, a hormonal teenage boy texting inside with his sunglasses still on, Harley boys with their leather get-up, men in suits, people honking, aww a little boy just smiled and waved at me! LOVE IT! Okay so on to my most recent thoughts… Recently I have been thinking about how much my Heavenly Father has blessed me this past year. I feel like I have relied on Him and leaned on Him more than any other time of my life. I am so grateful for His love and His plan. He truly does know each of us…. like really really KNOWS us! and has a plan for each of us…. a specific plan that we must learn to embrace. It has been interesting to see where my life has gone and how everything unfolds as we grow… . I am still clueless as to where I will be in 3 months but I know something is waiting for me! I’m just trying to live one day at a time.
It is interesting to think about where I was a year ago and what I thought I would be doing at this time. I thought I had things figured out, but just as those thoughts entered my mind, curve balls were thrown from every direction. I was humbled and became best friends with the edge of my bed each morning and night and in-between.

I just feel His overwhelming LOVE!!

The Atonement is a beautiful thing and I am so so grateful for my trials and hardships so that I can use it in my life. I am grateful for those bad days, painful days, emotional days, achy body days, somber days, lonely days, and cry-your-eyes-out-for-no-reason days where the Atonement is present and used for ME, just ME. I feel Heavenly Father has blessed me and trusted me with so many things! And he DOES answer prayers. I have prayed for good college roomies.. BAM done! I prayed to know why I hurt and ached so much a while back… BAM I know! I have prayed to feel His love and comfort. BAM I feel it so strong! I prayed to know why I went home this summer when I wanted to go somewhere else.. BAM I know! I prayed for a good experience in Utah with teaching and roomies.. BAM it’s the best!
Last Sunday in Relief Society our teacher gave us a quote that I absolutely LOVE: “Every experience God gives us, every person He puts in our lives is the perfect preparation for the future that only He can see.” – Corrie Ten Boom.
I feel so lucky and blessed for my family and friends that have been part of my life! Honestly.. everyone says they have the best friends and family…. BUT I definitely DO! Hands down… THE BEST in every possible way!
Sorry this is turning into a novel, but I just had to say my thoughts and write them down. I had to seize this opportunity before my next thunderstorm and trial roll along.. I would feel so ungrateful if I didn’t recognize my Savior and His Atonement, His plan and His love.
Don’t think that I have everything figured out because I don’t. I am far from that and still have much to learn (like how to discipline those first graders), much to experience (like watch Star Wars and eat a Hot Dog at a baseball game), much to see (like starving children in Africa), much to be taught (like how to properly ride a long board), much to discover (like how to cook like my mama), much to do (like ride in a hot air balloon), and how to love more openly (like the jerk who scratched my car with his car door!)…. It’s one day at a time… thank goodness!

Does anyone smell updog?????

Whats up dog??? HAHAH okay sweet Office Quote.. sorry it's late


K i'll be honest I'm not really sure what to call this post or what to write.. I have just had requests to write something because peeps are tired of clicking on my post and seeing my nasty chin! BTW (thats By the Way dad!) Danielle took out my stiches and everything is healing quite nicely! I went to the dentist today as well and got my tooth "unchipped".. well they just gave me a filling! My scabs are healing quickly and my chin doesn't look HUGE and sore anymore!





I am having so much fun down here in Utah! It has been such a blessing for me! I love my two roommates who are also student teachers! I have had classes with them in Idaho so we knew each other beforehand. This picture is of me and Bailey! She is so cute and fun! We are teachers at the same school so we carpool each day! I randomly just took this picture because I don't post without a picture so excuse the nastyness... I need to go shower cause I just worked out and its about 11:00 p.m. and we're both procrasting going to bed! HA! Anyway.. the ward is fun and very sweet! I live so close to Danielle, Sarah and Megan so me and Dani have been hanging out a ton! (yoga, climbing, hiking, running, grocery store, Jamba Juice, temple dates, Salt Lake 1/2 Marathon, naping, and making dinner!) I have also been hanging out a lot with my EFY counselors from this summer! :) They are super fun and I have had fun going to drive-in movie theaters, pool party's, long-boarding up Provo Canyon (I'm very careful don't worry), playing tennis, and star gazing! :)





And alas student teaching! Okay i love it! I love my kids, my teacher, my school, and supervisor! Everything is going great! I crack up at my kids everyday! They say the cutest things like ask me when I am getting married, why I am NOT married yet, if I have any kids, why I look like a high schooler, and why I have a dad! They are so observant and notice when my chin and hand look better and healed and they always comment on the outfits I wear! :) I can't help but smile and laugh sometimes too when they don't follow the directions because half the time they are clueless... i need to work on this.. i need to be meaner and more stern, but its soo hard! :)

Well big gulps huh? What can I say.. LIFE is peachy!!

When life hands you a longboard... RIDE IT










well im sure you all have heard my sweet biffing it on a longboard story but just incase ill recap! So me and my friend Jeff were in Rexburg waiting for my friends Megan and Brig and we had about 20 min. to kill. I bought a longboard 4 days ago and so I was pretty excited to get on it for the first time! Well Jeff takes me to this pretty big hill and wanted to show me how to carve. So I start to go down it, trying to carve but I start to go faster and faster! I was picking up so much speed and didn't really know what to do at this point and my board was shaking really bad! So i bailed and tried to run with the momentum but the momentum was going WAYYYY to fast and I smacked my face right onto the pavement and skidded across it for a while!
I got up and I was totally fine! I was probably in shock cause my shirt was all bloddy and my chin was dripping blood but i was perfect! Couldn't have been better. Jeff said we should go to the E.R and I was like... "No, my dad usually superglues our scrapes". Jeff was like.. "Well there is nothing really to super glue!" Apparantly there was a huge gash missing from my chin! Well we went to the E.R. and I got all stiched up (7 stiches) and then we were on our way again!!! Megan and Brig met us at the E.R. and Megan was so sweet to hold my hand as I was given the numbing shot into my chin! She had to skidaddle after a while because watching was making her naucious and light headed but Meg thanks so much for being in the room with me! It meant a lot!!!!

Wedding weekend and Rupert!!



So this last weekend I went up to Rexburg to go to my really good friends, Ryley and Chelse's wedding! Both of them hiked Coyote Gulch with me! It was soo good to see them and I absolutely loved their reception! It was so pretty and very much their personality! Then the next day after my E.R. happenings me, Jeff, Megan and Brig went to Rupert and had a blast! We rode the four-wheeler out to a cemetary and water dam, ate a delicious dinner, went to our good friend, Marissa's wedding reception, and spray painting shirts! It was so fun to see them and hang out with them before life gets crazy as a teacher! It's always a blast with Megan and Brig! There is never a dull moment! I love them!


So cute couple!



Ryley and Chels
