The Temple and personal revelation

I am so thankful and feel so blessed to be so close to the temple here at Rexburg. The spirit is strong there and it truly is the closest place you can be to God. I could feel his love and support so much clearer than any other place. I am also so thankful for personal revelation and the ability to be in tuned to the spirit to get guidance from my Heavenly Father. I am truly blessed!

TIME

My newest post is about the passing of time. Lately I've been thinking about how time has changed my surroundings, the people around and me, and myself. Just being at school for a couple of months I came back and things were different. All these new stores in Carmel Mountain (which isn't really important in my life) but it made me think about when my dad looks at certain places where he grew up and says "This used to be where my elementary school was" I too kept pointing to things and saying remember when? I'm now looking at people and asking that same question to myself remember when? People that I have gone to high school with and so seemingly close to.. I now look at them and I think how much has changed, how different our paths are now...... sadly to the point where we have drifted apart. Even family cousins who I was so close to because of the paths they have taken are shells of who they once were.

But now not to end on a sad note, yes I have lost people as I have grown up and others have too but I have gained new friendships at college who are important in this phase in my life and I still kept soem friends who I have grown up with, time has not eroded our friendship but instead I think time has refined my oldest friendships and now I know they will last me a lifetime. These people are the ones that I will always keep in contact with and we will always keep up with the latest and greatest events in our lives. :)

Time is a very funny thing...

Long time!

I have not posted here in FORVER! I really need to! So I shall!..... when I have more time :)

Man I miss this show

Just saw this video, it made me miss this show  so much! I don't know if it was the song, or just seeing all the characters, but it has made me want to get my dvds and rewatch the show!

I need glasses

So I got my physical for College yesterday, and when I did the eye test, and I covered my right eye, it was all blurry! That has never happened to me!

So today I went to the doctor, and my right eye is 20/20 but my left eye is 20/50 and for DMV standards I need glasses when I drive!

So I got some glasses, I have to wait a couple weeks to get them, and I wont have to wear them that much, only in class and when I drive, which isn't too bad I guess.

It was really weird when I was trying on glasses, I have never seen myself with them on! But I found some cute ones from Cole Haan, and the best part is that insurance covers them so they are really cheap!

These are them!


Also, going to the eye doctors, is hilarious, first they have you look at the computer game and use a clicker thing, and then when the doctor was moving around a red dot thing in my face, and he was being totally serious, I couldn't stop laughing, for some reason I thought it was really funny, but the eye doctor didn't find it that funny....... haha

How can you not root for them man? They got a blind guy and a guy with a broken leg!

So I promise this is my last post of the day, but man! These guys are so inspirational! Expedition Impossible is such a great show! It takes place in Morocco, and its similar to the show Amazing Race, where they have challenges, but this show is like 2o times harder, they rock climb, white water raft, and rapel!

So anyway one of my favorite teams on teh show is called No Limits, there are threee guys on the team, two og them have climbed Mt.Everest, and one of those two guys did it blind, and the ther guy Ike, is in the military and has recieved a purple heart.  On the show Ike reinjures his ankle he broke while in the Iraq war.

These guys are heros and definetley people I look up to!

NEVER GIVE UP!

This video is a short clip of them barley making it to the finishing line!

Something for College

Well I saw this on Facebook, and I knew this had to go on my wall for college! I love Pride and Prejudice, and with everyone saying people date like crazy at BYUI, this will be a good motto!
