Would you look at that?! It's been a good 6 months since I have blogged.... whoops. My girl Hay Hay kindly reminded me that I haven't blogged. She told me she won't tell me any funny blogs to follow unless I post on my own. Honestly my life is awesome so I will try to be better until February 6th. Because on that day I leave on a mission for MORRISTOWN, NEW JERSEY SPANISH SPEAKING!!
Yeah I'm real excited. So what have I been doing?? This week was awesome!
Saturday: I drove to Logan and went to Stake Conference, because LDV (Latter Day Voices) was performing. Hay Hay is apart of this wonderful choir. Holy cow. They were AMAZING!! The spirit was so strong and the speakers were amazing. Although life is hard, it always seems that someone else is going through harder trials.
Sunday: We slept in, of course! Then went to church. On the way Brittany, Haley's roommate and good friend, drove. Just as we pulled out of the drive way this poor boys' car had died in the middle of the road. So Britt being the great person she is, pulled out her jumper cables and helped him out. When we got to church, we couldn't find a parking spot to save our lives. GEEZ! Out of no where Britt's car slides into the side of the road and her serpintine belt is shredded. Don't ask me what that is but apparantly it's neccessary for driving. So we sat in the -10 weather while we waited for Britt's dad to save the day.

Haley wasn't even wearing a coat. So pretty much we only made it to Sacrament. It was a great meeting though. The Elders Quorum Presidency spoke about following the promptings of the spirit. Later we walked home=worst day ever. It was so cold my hands are still unthawing. As the night closed we had to run up on campus to the library so Haley could do homework. There I met this girl that was in LDV and her family lives in my mission! So hopefully I run into Maria Linfold. Amazing miracles God is sending my way to prepare me for my mission.
Monday: Today I accompanied Haley to her classes. Creative Arts. A class of at least 500 students. Yeah. I got more from the stupid couple in front of us than the teacher. Big classes create great opportunities to people watch that's for sure. Later was math. I had to pretend to take notes because the teacher was walking around the class room. I was way nervous she was going to know I wasn't really in her class let alone a student at USU.

The best part of my day was after when I got to meet up with Taylor Hyatt and catch up. Then! I went to Haley's choir (LDV) rehearsal. Unreal. So spiritually fulfilling. They sang "Tell Me the Stories of Jesus" while the pianist would play, students would stand and tell their favorite stories of Jesus. WOW!! So incredible to say the least. Hopefully if I come back to USU after the mish I will sing in that choir. Later I went to FHE with some friends that I worked with over the summer Miranda, Kersey and Chelsey. Great day. Shout out to Haley. Man rough day her ceiling, car, tooth and phone died. Yikes. She's a rock.
Tuesday: Haley and I attempted to wake up early. We were expecting a call from her older sister, Mal, she flew to Texas today to enter the mission field. Well I'm not sure what happened but we didn't get a call:( I did have my alarm going off ever 15 min from 6:30 am on til about 8. Yes. After I went back to bed and Haley went to class, we went to the Logan temple to do Baptisms. Way awesome! Then we watched the Bachelor with Lizzy, Haley's other roommate. Gosh that show is way too intriguing. I hate that I love it basically. We then went to Takara Sushi. SOOOOOO delicious! I ate 2 rolls.... Mexican crunch and Golden Cali. Yum. Haley ate beans. Charlies, the ice cream shop followed. Basically I feel like a whale we ate so much but it was so delicious and so worth it.

When we got home Haley and I sat at her key board and sang like old times. She has been such an amazing friend for letting me stay at her house for the past couples days and feeding me. She's so great! I have been so luck to have such a good friend since we met at Singers in 7th grade. I will miss her so much while I'm gone! Be jealous my best friend is the best.
