just a quick update on my life (:

HELLLLOOOO.

It has been quite some time since I have felt inspired to blog but yesterday was a great day and today has been one of those "I don't want to do anything" days. So to relieve myself from boredom and continue my procrastination of studying biology I have decided to blog.

My last entry was depressing and about some dumb boy. #1 on the list of updates, it is soooo not worth it to make yourself feel like crap and not worth it because of some boy.

Anyway, I am in a MUCH better place in my life right now, for the first time in A LONG time I can actually say that I AM HAPPY!!!! So I guess that is update #2 I feel good. I find myself smiling as I'm walking to my classes and making friends and wanting to get to know people again and that is something I really like.

#3 I transferred schools. I am currently attending UVU and could not be more happy about it. It has been such a weight off my shoulders to be out of Logan (don't get me wrong I will rep the aggies until the day I die & still think Logan is cute) it just wasn't for me anymore. Here in Provo I actually like going to class. I AM LEARNING things at school. I hang out with people. really humans who aren't playing a role in a Netflix Original series. I am making new friends and trying new things. I am loving life and making the best of it.

This next one is a surprise to me but #4 I like running. I am discovering all the new things about myself now that I actually feel good & want to do things! haha Bueno, I like running outside. I hate the treadmill. My favorite place right now to run is Provo Canyon. I start at vivan park and run down to the mouth of canyon, passing the cute river and many waterfalls. It just gives me this appreciation for the Earth and is another testament to me that God lives.

#5 my favorite item of clothing right now is a North face jacket my mom got for me at Costco. I literally wore it to bed last night, it is so comfy and I like the sound it makes when it moves. haha

Now this next one is kind of top secret, expect for that fact that I tell everyone, minus the person it is actually about #6 I like a boy. A nice boy. A boy who likes spending time with me & makes me laugh. We are just friends and I am okay with that... ish. I may or may not have been pinteresting how to get out of the friend zone last night haha so if you have any suggestions or know of any boys how you know like me back, send them my way please (; this particular boy is hard to crack.

#7 If you know me at all, you know my love for taking pictures and making videos and basically documenting everything. Well here is an update, I have dialed that back a lot. I have come to realize that my phone camera will never capture the vibrant colors of the sunset or the way the mountain glows when the sun hits it just right or that documenting that I am with friends does not add to the moment or "make it real". I have just started to take everything in, the way it is in the moment and remember more how I feel ( and of course I write that down in my journal, I haven't changed that much. Still have to document some things. ) It has really made moments slow down and memories much sweeter <3

Last one #8, which is certainly not the least and I can easily say it is the reason for the last 7 updates, The Book of Mormon. Thanks to a loving, living Prophet of God, President Russell M Nelson. I have made reading a habit again in my life. Not just one measly verse before I go to bed but a few chapters a day. IT REALLY DOES MAKE ALL THE DIFFERENCE. It brings a JOY that only comes from Jesus Christ and it reminds me that I have a purpose and that we are here for a reason. Life is rough. It has sooo many twists, roundabouts and yield signs on the road to finding peace and happiness BUT with The Lord on your side and a daily dose of The Book of Mormon, its like you driving the car Inspector Gadget had where the wheels boost it up so it can easily pass over anything, like road blocks & traffic, ya feel?

In a little nut shell, I AM HAPPY, CONTENT WITH LIFE REALLY AND JUST SOO EXCITED TO SEE WHAT MY FUTURE HOLDS ((((((((((((:
