Life is Complicated...

Hello Blogger World!

Sorry that I have not been able to indulge all the secrets of my life to you. I have been busy living life. :)

Here is a few of the things that I have gotten to do in the past few weeks:
  • Going Home to Mesa, AZ for 67 Hours
  •  
    • Chow with Grandpa and Grandma
    • Hanging with the family
    • Garage-Saleing with my mom (FAVORITE SUMMER ACTIVITY!!) 
    • Attending one of my best friend's wedding and seeing friends that I haven't seen in two whole years!!




  • Starting Summer Term
    • 3 New Classes
    • New term with new mentoring students
    • New Office Hours
    • Unofficial Mentor Hangouts
    • Fun days of "Hubbing" (meaning spending time in a glorious place called the Hub)
    • Summer Kick Off (which was seriously the most fun thing in the world!)
    • Watching Cosmo go through an obstacle course
    • Studying for tests and writing papers that are due next week
Yeah. So that has been my life.

As the title said, life is complicated. I wish that it could be a lot easier. I wish that I could say the things that I want to say without consequences. But there are consequences. So my mouth stays shut. I have never been one to take risks.That has just never been my gift. So life will remain complicated. It may be complicated, but in the end....
Come what may and love it!

Answered Prayers

To those of you who heard my testimony today, I apologize that I am repeating myself. This is an experience I just needed to write down for myself. Let's rewind to Monday night. I hadn't been feeling all that great. I had only gotten 3 hours of sleep the night before. I just was ready to go to bed. I told myself that I would come home from FHE and go to sleep. I was in my pajamas by 8:30- crazy for a college student, right? One of my friends dropped in for a visit. After she left, I had one of those moments where I just felt completely alone. I went to my room and prayed when a few simple words came to my mind. "Heavenly Father, Are you really there? And do you hear and answer every child's prayer?" These two lines from the children's primary song were stuck in my mind. In the moment, it is easy to doubt that Heavenly Father answers our prayers. How can He really hear every single prayer around the world? How can He answer every single one? It just ...

Suicide Prevention Week- Accessing Christ's Atonement for Spiritual and Emotional Help

I have been meaning to get a blog post written as soon as I read that it was Suicide Prevention Week on Facebook. I love the publicity that this is getting now, verses a few years ago. I think that by being open about talking about suicide, we are preventing a lot of suicides from happening. Why? Because that teenager or adult that doesn't understand what they are feeling now sees how to get help. They see that they shouldn't feel embarrassed or ashamed, but that other people feel this way too.  I have talked about my own thoughts of suicide before, but today I wanted to share some hope. I absolutely cringed when Robin Williams committed suicide and everyone kept saying that he was "free". Yes, he had fought a good fight, but I was so scared of it encouraging others to commit suicide to escape because they wanted the same freedom.  Today, I want to share something that I shared with a family member before about how to use Jesus Christ's atonement to receive sp...

Room and Board (Part 1)

College is EXPENSIVE ! I had always known college cost lots of money-but with BYU costing about $3000 per semester tuition, I thought it wouldn't be that bad. What people DON'T tell you is that it cost a ton to just live while in college. I got an email today telling me that on March 9th, they will send me another email telling me when I can sign up for housing. So I have been looking up all this information about different housing on campus and meal plans. There are so many options and choses that have to be made. If you are bad at making decisions that are life altering...college is definitely not for you. Just to make sure that you are going to be fed everyday is a chore. There are about four or five meal choices that people have at BYU. Right now I am deciding between two. Dining Plus COST: $3,990/ semester DAILY ALLOCATION: 11.10 'Dining Dollars' Anything that is not spent at the end of the day will be added on ...
