The week leading up to it was <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange;">crazy as flames</span></b> (not sure what that means, but whatevs). I had a chem exam and an anatomy exam. It was madness. Friday, my Mother Deer got into the 801 and then Saturday, her, me, and my sista all hit the road for IDAHO! We stopped at a fancy place for breakfast on our way out and then got going. My cousin Jordan had her mission farewell (heading to Ukraine) and so a lot of the fam went up. It was so fun. </div>

We stayed the whole weekend in <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Idaho</span></b>. We had family dinners, family game nights of UNO, and I stayed up way too late every night with my cousins. I was so glad to hang out with Jordan before she left- I forget that we are such good friends and it was SO good to catch up on life. Can't believe we're both serving missions. Anyway, the weekend with the DREAM TEAM (Me, Mom, Heidi) = PERF. We got back Monday afternoon, I worked 6PM-6AM Monday and then Mom and I hit the road Tuesday morning for St. George. </div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: magenta;">Tuesday night</span>, Grant met up to stay the week, and we cruised around the Steeg. I forget how much I love the Steeg until I get back down there from not being there for a while. I love all the "lookout" places. Dixie Rock, The Big D at the Airport, above the hospital, and over in St. James Place up kinda by Summit. We went and saw Elder Cameron Cox off. That boy is going to be a great missionary. I love him and am so proud/excited for him. </div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d;">Thursday </span></span>we hiked the Red Mountain with Joey and Tirsa. It was SO good to spend time with those two. I was kind of a baby on the hike, but I did legitimately feel kinda sick. Haha, but I knew the view would be so worth it, so we made it to the top. We laid up there for a while, letting the breeze cool us off. It was such a beautiful day. We realized it was like 3:15... and I had to be AT the temple by 5:40. We cruised off that mount and I made it in time. </div>

Going through the temple <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0b5394;">Thursday night </span>was beautiful. I seriously was so grateful my family could be there with me, it was so comforting. I missed Heidi, Eric, and Mikelle, but was so happy to have my Grandma Hafen, Kira Bott and her mom April. We saw a lot of other Santa Clara friends in there which was awesome too. We went to Larsen's Frost-Top after. Mmmm, so good. </div>

We were driving home from Larsen's and who's rolling down their window screaming to me? The one and only<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cc0000;"> OLIVIA EARL.</span> We followed her to Joey's and hung out there for a while.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f1c232;">Friday,</span> I spent some time with Weston and Tirsa. Later, Grant and I ran some more errands and just cruised the town. John called and said he was going to take the top off the Hummer... and asked if we wanted to take it out. Heck yeah! We took it out by the new airport and just cruised around. Ah, it so so peaceful out there. That night we saw Jack Reacher with my parents. I was kinda out of it and fell asleep... but it was a good movie (from what I saw, haha)</div>

You will prepare to preach the gospel in the<b> Tagalog language</b>."</span></i><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">In my stake president interview before I got my call, my stake president said "You are going to be incredible, Sister Hafen.... Even though I just met you, you are someone who has a happy disposition, am I right?" I responded yes and we continued the interview. "A mission call is inspired. How many times in your life are you going to get direct revelation through a prophet of God? Probably never again. This time of your life is incredible." I told myself that I knew my call would come from The Lord. But after it came, <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">my faith started to shake.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Can I be honest? .... it's been a rough few days. The fact that I am leaving on a mission is unreal. If I can say <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">4 words</span> that have never been more true in my life... they are <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">"The Adversary is real."</span> I thought I knew what it was like to be brought down by Satan and I KNOW that Satan is a piece of crap... But I didn't know how badly he didn't want me to go on a mission until the week I was waiting for my call. SO much doubt filled my mind. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">"WHAT AM I EVEN DOING? SERIOUSLY?"</span> "DO I EVEN KNOW IF THIS CHURCH IS TRUE?" "I LITERALLY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT ANYTHING IS ANYMORE." <----- i="">seriously. these exact thoughts ran through my head. </-----></i></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Hundreds and thousands of these mission call letters get sent out every week, and I've probably heard over 30 of them read out loud by friends, family, and freak, even random people on YouTube. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">But what's funny, is that the last paragraphs of the letter often times don't' get read. We read the first part and freak out, and then that's it. We call everyone we know, post on Instagram, Facebook, EVERYWHERE. I got my call 3 days ago and read the rest of that page for the first time a couple hours ago. Here it is:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">"Your</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: magenta;"> purpose</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;"> will be to invite others to come unto Christ by helping them receive the restored gospel through faith in Jesus Christ and His Atonement, repentance, baptism, receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end.</span> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">As you serve with all your heart,</span> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">might, and strength, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">the Lord will lead you</span> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">to those who are prepared to be baptized. </span></span></i><br />
<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></i>
<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">The Lord will reward you for the goodness of your life. Greater blessings and more happiness you have yet experienced await you as you humbly and prayerfully serve the Lord in this</span> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">labor of love </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">among His children. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #6aa84f;">We place our confidence in you</span> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">and pray that the Lord will help you become an effective missionary."</span></span></i><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">These last two paragraphs give me real peace, comfort, and hope. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">The Lord knows us personally. He knows my mom, Miss Suzy Q. on the corner, the homeless man by the freeway, the President of the United States, and he knows me. He knows I'm supposed to go to the Philippines and he knows that I am capable of learning the language (not on my own of course. HA!)</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">If you don't know if God knows you, <b>ask him in faith</b>. Ask him a couple times. Be diligent.. he'll answer you.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">I cannot wait to begin my <i>"labor of love"</i> by preaching the gospel and bringing the Filipino people unto Christ.</span><br />

I stay up so late looking up chords and learning new stuff, it reminds me of my junior and senior year. Ahhhh. I have MISSED it terribly.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Music is insane. It's so weird how it works and I love it. I crave it. I know it is a direct avenue into your inner workings.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><b>Words from the [not so] wise: </b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">* <u><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">If you are musical</span></u>, stay musical. Keep your musical talent in tip-top shape and really strip yourself down to that raw, real experience. You know what I'm talking about. Really open up your heart and become vulnerable. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">* <u><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">If you don't consider yourself musical</span></u>, <b>get over it.</b> Everyone has a musical talent. Whether you can memorize lyrics fast, never forget lyrics, recognize any song on the radio, love musicals, can keep time, have a sick beat in your head all the time, whistling, humming, the list goes on. EVERYONE can love and benefit from music. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">--<b> Experimen</b>t with all types of music; <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cc0000;">classical </span>(I suggest Rachmaninoff),<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;"> Rap/hiphop </span>(I suggest Eminem, Where is the Love-Black Eyed Peas, Runaway Love- Ludacris), <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">laid-back stuff </span>(Jack Johnson, Missy Higgins, Norah Jones, The Piano Guys), <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Rock/upbeat</span> (Can't go wrong with Maroon 5 or Red Hot Chili Peppers) or a little <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">country</span> (Jason Aldean, Rascal Flatts, Josh Turner). </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">I seriously credit the person I am to 3 specific things:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">1. the gospel of Jesus Christ</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">2. my incredible parents</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">3. music</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">I am so serious. I am who I am because of the impact music has had on my life. I gained confidence, which led me to find out who I was and TRUST who I was. TRUST that I could do hard things. TRUST that I can learn to love people. TRUST that I could change and be the best I could be. I have had endless opportunities to serve because of music and will forever be grateful for those experiences.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">But I think the<i> greatest</i> thing music has done for me is give me a testimony. A testimony of the love of Jesus Christ. Call me crazy, but music speaks truth. Good music speaks truth. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">This post is so dang random, I kind of don't even want to post it. But I'm going to anyway.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Kira (my BFF) stayed with me over the weekend and we made time to just jam together. We packed us some snacks, headed to Liberty Park with blankets and water bottles and sat on the island and just jammed. She taught me new licks and we sat, sang, and played. It was warm and life was good. So good. People stopped and talked to us and sat on the bench near us to listen. It was awesome. Thanks for inspiring me to play the uke, Kira.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">But if I die tomorrow</span>, <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: purple;">I want all of you to know that I know music is <b>raw</b> and <b>real</b> and <b>good</b>. Let yourself be receptive to good music and use it to bring others to find themselves and become the best they can be. <i>That</i> is seriously why I love music.</span> I love bringing people closer to Christ through my music and I hope I do that until the day I die. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">-continue on in deep scripture study</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">-talk about life with those you live with</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">-clean out every cupboard in the house</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">-blog about everything</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">-run laundry</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">-talk on the phone/ Skype old friends</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">-jam on the uke</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">-write letters to close friends</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">???</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Yeah. I wish I could have those nights<i> every </i>night. <b>I decided there should be 8 days in a week.</b> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Monday Tuesday Wednesday <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">Middelowday</span> Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">Middelowday </span>would come after Wednesday, and it wouldn't be a considered a weekday. It's a "weekend" day, but in the middle of the week. How nice would that be? A "Saturday" in the middle of the week. Ah. BLISS. PURE BLISS.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">I think I'll petition for that later in life. HA. Can you imagine if all of a sudden that changed? If it does, you all will know it was because of me. Feel privileged to know me, I'll be famous for this later.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>

Happy Tuesday. Monday sucked but Tuesdey's doin' good so far. GREAT actually.<br />
<br />
Eat oatmeal for breakfast, say hi to every person you pass on the streets today, say prayers and just chat with the Big Guy Upstairs when you're bored, study the amazing human body, and talk to your pet fish in its bowl. All of this equates to a great day.<br />
<br />
peace & love,<br />

I know school starting back means STRESS, but it feels so good to be back.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">All 4 of us roommates are home, dodgeball for FHE was so fun, and long talks with ward friends always hit the spot. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">First day back= SUCCESS.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">The Schedg: (schedule)</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">-L.E.A.P.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">I am <i>so</i> happy to get back to the good ol' Biology building, meet back with my LEAP pals, rehearse and perform stellar music in orchestra, see my cute kids at the elementary every week again, get back into tennis, learn to love chemistry, make new friends and strengthen relationships with old ones, and most of all... welcome in NEW adventures.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">I'm young and I love it.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Sound cheesy? I don't care. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">...It's good to be back in the swing of things.</span><br />

*Wednesday Heid and I went <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #9fc5e8;">snowboarding </span></b>all day, we had a blast of course and definitely laughed more than we actually boarded. Snowboarding isn't really my thing... I'll stick to wake boarding.<br />

Megan Chalmers and I have had our tickets since when... last APRIL?<br />

And I couldn't be more excited. Honestly, I think this will be the best Christmas of my life so far. </span><div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">I work the night shifts (6PM-6AM) on December 24th and December 25th and will have my trusty violin by my side the whole time. Christmas tunes all around! My patients are depending on me and have been confirming that I'm bringing it all month.</span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">I had a pretty lame Christmas list this year... I asked for a printer? Maybe a crock pot? Target gift card? I secretly wanted a bike but we'll have to see about that one. </span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">None of my excitement for next week is about the gifts. None of it. I seriously cannot WAIT to be with my family. I miss my parents (so much) and I need to see those little nephews of mine. I miss the Hafen Gang more than I thought I would. </span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">My roommate Emilee and I have been talking about how as you move away from home, it doesn't even matter what gifts you want to Christmas; we have everything we need. Yeah, as college students a little extra cash would be nice or a new pair of running shoes; but honestly, we just want to be with our families and appreciate Christ.</span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Happy Holiday season to all of you!</span></div>

I have so many blog ideas, I actually feel stressed out about it. Ha! The thought that I am stressed out over blogging is a dang good feeling.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Lately, I have just felt happy. Not because my life is perfect, but because I have chosen to feel this way. Things have fallen through, people have been mean; I've gotten in sticky situations and had my feelings hurt a few times. But. <b>It is a decision to be happy. </b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">100% my decision.</span></b><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Yeah, work might be crappy one night. Yeah, maybe you didn't get much sleep. Or<i> maybe</i> the outfit you felt was really cute... just really wasn't. But. It is your decision to be happy. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">This quote really changed my way of thinking:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;"> “Suffering is <i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">always</span></i> the effect of <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">wrong thought</span> in <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">some direction</span>. It is an indication that the individual is out of harmony with himself, with the Law of his being.” </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;">― James Allen, As a Man Thinketh</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">No matter what, suffering is never justified. Someone has already done the suffering for you, it's your job to turn yourself in the "right direction". </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">I challenge you to be happy. Actually...... </span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">...I DARE you to be happy. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Triple dog dare. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Try it. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">It'll be an easy challenge when life is good, but when it gets rough, you'll really have to kick it in gear. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Happy Saturday.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I wasn't too good at blogging towards the end of the semester, but I figured school was more important.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Here's a little summary on November, just for the sake of documenting history.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: lime; font-size: x-large;">Skydiving.</span> Yes. I went skydiving. Yes my Mom was
freaked out. Yes I put my Dad and brother John as my liable guardians in case of
emergency. And YES IT WAS AWESOME. The whole weekend was super fun. The crew
was me, Garrett Clements, Cameron Cox, Emily Awerkamp, Peter Fuller, and Meghan
Derrick. It was so fun. We left right after my biology exam and headed for
Moab. We hiked a little, ate food, napped, stayed up late talking, made fires,
roasted marshmallows and starbursts, and cooked our food with the exception of a few McDonalds runs. The boys went
mountain biking and the girls hung around the camp. Definitely a solid weekend.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0b5394;">TIRED.</span> </span><br />
<br />
Preparing for <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d; font-size: large;">finals</span> </b>is making me very tired.<br />
I'm not:<br />
a wreck<br />
stressed out to the max<br />
freaking out<br />
angry<br />
or<br />
grumpy.<br />
<br />
I'm just fetching tired. And slightly emotional? I started bawling driving home from school today. Whatevski. I asked my awesome home teacher for a blessing on Sunday to help me through the next week. In the blessing he said to always remember to enjoy yourself along the way and whatever work you've put in will be consecrated. He also said to NOT FORGET to do the little things like praying every day and reading scripture.<br />
<br />
So... to all you college kids out there, religious or not; remember to enjoy yourselves along the way, and have faith in whatever it is you have faith in. It'll all be okay.<br />
<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">life is good</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">life is beautiful</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">life is hard</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">life isn't fair</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">life throws me for a loop</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">life is weird</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">life is confusing</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">life is simple</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">life is experimental</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">life is incredible</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">but in all reality.... life is FAST. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I can't believe I am almost to finals week of my 1st semester of college. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b>I am feeling so blessed and so loved. </b>I have relied on numerous people around me, but most importantly, I have learned to to rely on the Lord. Even though I need to rely on Him more, He has blessed me with the gift of the Holy Ghost. I seriously love that guy (is that too casual for the HG?). Anyway, the Spirit is incredible, and listening to it is so dang important. I can testify that ignoring the Spirit is too risky. It's way too risky.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">That's all I have to report for now. I will be a better blogger later. Maybe.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">With much love from the city,</span><br />

I don't have much to say tonight; this weekend has been full of <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #6aa84f;"><b>extreme happiness</b></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: lime;"> </span>and <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #3d85c6;"><b>incredible sorrow</b></span>, and my prayers are with many tonight.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">In my New Testament institute class, we really hammered Matthew 5 and the beatitudes. One thing I wrote in my journal was <b>"Blessed are ye -----> ALWAYS." </b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">In times of sorrow, it's nearly <i>impossible</i> to fight the words out "Thy will be done" but again, sometimes it's the only thing that brings us peace. The man upstairs knows exactly what we need, so why pray? Why do we need to ask him, he ALREADY knows. So if he already knows, apparently WE are the ones that don't know. We need to find out what we need. </span><br />

think up all sorts of madness. But then I read my journals and I reflect on the

week to get my wisdom teeth out because we had Fall Break all week. Go Utes.
Every other school didn’t get a week out. HA HA. Anyway, I went to sacrament
meeting at the good ol’ valley chapel and listened to the wonderful testimonies
of the 1<sup>st</sup> ward. One of my old Young Women leaders, Sister Mylroie,
bore her testimony about her mission. And the mission change for Young Women.
She said that when the change happened, it made her reflect back on WHY she
went on a mission. She pondered and read old journals and she came to a
conclusion: She knew this gospel was true and knew how it had blessed her life,
and she wanted everyone else in the world to know it too. This was such a
confirmation to me. When the age changed, there was just a rush of people
freaking out and I was so overwhelmed. I was AT conference when President
Monson announced it and I felt so much love but also a lot of weight. I have
decided that I’m going to prepare for a mission, and after next semester I will
see what the Lord has in store for me. <o:p></o:p></span></i></span></div>

The U had the whole week off for Fall Break (go utes) and my wisdom teeth were killing me so it was perfect timing. As I was driving home (home as in SLC, weird I know), I realized I ended up seeing some of the most important people in my life over the break, which I was very pleased with. Josie Larson, James Christiansen, Tirsa Snyder, Garrett Clements, Cameron Cox, David Lloyd, Joey Anderson, Shalei Miller, Weston Esplin, Kira Bott, Olivia Earl, brother Alex, sister Tori, brother John, sister Mikelle, my nephews, my grandparents, and my wonderful Mom and Dad. I even skyped the Megan's (Brindley and Chalmers) for a solid 2 hours one of the nights I was in STG.</span><br />
