This Is My Adventure

Some classes will always be hard, I've come to accept that.
Some friends will put you last on their list, no matter how hard you try.
Some days will feel like you're walking on fire, despite the planning and work you do.
Some memories will always come back, it's just how that goes.

Yet there are so many things we can learn.

Those classes will be stepping stones to your main goal.
Friends who put you last will give you an eternal perspective
of who you really want to keep in your life.
We can't have Great days, without Horrible ones.
Then there are the lessons to be remembered.

Ha! Want to hear a story? Of course you do.

In Sacrament meeting on Sunday I was assigned to give a talk on Gratitude. I had prepared my talk to be around 10-12 minutes and had everything ready. As the Bishop is announcing the speakers for the day he says something along the lines of this, "Today we will hear talks from Sephanie and Jerrica, both of whom are preparing for missions..."

A few peoples faces were priceless, I could see a little confusion as well. Im sure I went somewhat red. I looked at Dallin who was smiling very widely with a surprised expression on my face saying, "Uh... was that the plan?". In my head I was laughing So hard. So much for waiting till my papers are in to tell people...

After Stephanie spoke I got up to share my talk and started something like this, "Hi, my name is Jerrica and I am, indeed, going on a mission. My papers aren't in yet, however they should be within the next week and a half or so. Well.. I was asked to speak on..."

Secret's out. I'm going on a mission.

I have never felt such disgust when having to write a paper than I have today. Not only do I not know anything about Stained Glass, but I can't seem go get the sentences to flow like usual! What is happening?? 

Oh hey. Yeah, I am here I just can't really put my thoughts into words.
They aren't even deep life changing thoughts, they're just your run of the mill..

"Hey it's weird that my kids won't really know about Elizabeth smart or 911, it'll be history to them"
"I don't understand lawyers when they talk, short and simple is the way to get me to remember"
"Awe, that's a cute cat"
"11 days till I go home and not even this cracker knows how excited I am"
"Maybe I'll text mom, I mean, I know we talked yesterday but.."

Really though. I mean, I don't even know what to say because it's all a bunch of random gibberish!

Tune in next time to hear about something useless that you probably don't even need to know about!
(cue theme song*)

I wish I had something fantastic to tell you. Something that's been keeping me so busy and excited that I just can't tell you until the time is right. Yet here I am.. and all I have to say is I breath Taylor Swift's new CD, eat cereal way too often, and have four tests this week.
