Oh Man! :)

How in the World am I supposed to help along the case of I am a great friend and I can also be a GREAT girlfriend?!  Bah!  I am supposed to be this super funny, outgoing girl that keeps her standards and I am fairly mature for my age and I love life!  :)  I always heard that was attractive to boys!  Bah!  I need a boy that can be my everything, be the person that will change my opinion FOREVER on how marriage can and SHOULD work out! Lately I have been needing that best friend that was a guy, that I can just hug and someone to hold my hand and tell me they care! :/ man!  I feel all antsy and I don't know why!  Byu-I I feel has made me kinda care that I don't have that special someone!  I honestly think that I don't need that right now...  But I just have this feeling of springtime and everyone is out with their boys and, with me never experiencing it.... I feel like my prince charming should come already!  I mean, someone that gets me!  Someone that will be able to see when I need a friend and look past this mask I am constantly wearing! Man!  I surely hope so!  :)  Sweet boy of my dreams... I pray for you every day and I hope we will be ready for each other when we meet if we haven't already! :)
Okay I'm done! :)  My life has been pretty exciting to be honest! and I love my friends and my family! :)  I am SOOOOOO happy I know the people I know... they make SUCH a difference in my life! :)  I just wish one day they can all know how much I truly love EVERY SINGLE ONE of them! Life is great and I love mine :)  I hope this happiness lasts! :)  And with a positive and optimistic attitude... there's no doubt :)
Peace out my friends :)

What a Semester!!?? Already??!! :)

Holla at chu boy!  :)  Haha!! I have had the greatest first week here at BYU-I for the spring semester! :)  I met my super cool new roomies and I absolutely love them!  :)  They are sooooo great!  I have been making so many new friends!!  I am loving my classes too!!  :)  It is so super great! :)  I have at least a few new friends in all my classes and I have been trying to be personable with everyone and just be myself and... sooo Far its been working out quite nicely!  :)  On Tuesday I found out one of my classes was a block class.... AWWWWKKAARRDDD! :P  Haha!  No worries!  Haha!!  Then on Wednesday, I ran into Lindsey Nelson!! :)  Man I was in SUCH a great mood!! :)  I can't get this smile off my face!  To be honest today has been kinda a drag but its okay!  :)  We can't always be happy right?!  Haha!  But yeah then, I got to go hang with Linds and it was SOOO great!  I met some people in her art class and I just told them funny stories while they were painting!  It was the highlight of my week...... until Thursday came along... :)  Awwwww Thursday was SUCH a great day!  :)  I came home did my homework and took a nap and I was hanging out with the neighbors as well as my roomies, and then Megan, Kenz, and Haley wanted to go to the gym...  Then we ran into Grant and His roommate, Lane, in the parking lot!  Haha!  We just sat there talking forever!  Grant and Haley just talked to each other as I talked to Lane.  Haha!  Oh my word!  I felt like I was acting so stupid and I could not even believe it when Grant nudged Lane to get my number.... Then he texted me!  Haha!  It was pretty much uphill from there!  :)  He told me I was like his favoritest person!  I still don't get why... but hey!  I'm cool with it ;)  Haha!  He said I was funny and outgoing!  Then we just texted for the rest of the night!  :)  SOOOO GREAT!  :)  Then...Friday morning rolled around and we went to the temple.  Bright and Early!  Man... I looked soooo awful!  But yet Lane was still such a sweetheart!  :)  I didn't think much into it... I don't think I should still anyways but hey... whatevs... :) But yeah it was so great!  I love watching men with the priesthood that just GLOW with the spirit when they get to use it!  :)  I dunno.. I can kind of see why the First Presidency suggests you don't go on dates to the temple just because the feeling and stuff is just SO crazy different!  :)  Plus.. for anybody that knows me... they know I am TOTALLY all for the missionary cut and lookin guys!  :)  I just can't get enough!  Haha!  :)  But yeah.  He is so cute!  :)  Which makes me smile, actually!  :)  Because I just think he is adorable in every way!!  He compliments me like NO ONE has ever done before... at least apart from my super great friends and he makes me laugh and smile like no other!  :)  I don't know how he does it to be honest! :)  He makes me want to be myself and just completely be an amazing person! :)  On Friday, after the temple, he totally left me and Kayla... thinking we had walked home!  Geez and that grinning, kinda embarrassed face of his kinda made me melt!  :)  Then later on, he walked me to class and we just talked the entire way!  I can't seem to get him out of my brain!  He just, I dunno, I feel so great and amazing when he's around and I CAN'T STOOP SMILING!  I mean, I have NEVER EVER felt so comfortable with someone before.... It is so weird!  We met Thursday, and I feel like I have literally known him forever!  :) I like it to be honest but at the same time... It honestly scares me!  But, I still am putting myself out there and just gonna see what happens.  Then, on Friday, after classes, we texted for like the rest of the day!! then He asked me to go on a walk with him on Saturday! :)  Man It was soooo super fun!! :)   That kid is soooo funny! Haha! :)  But we decided we are just gonna be friends!  funny that this morning I actually asked that the Lord might impress his mind to let me know how our relationship would be. And he texted me this morning! Haha! :)  Yup it was great!  :)  Then on Saturday we went to  the park and we got super sunburned! :P  haha!  :)  So great! haha! :)  Then I went on lots of bike rides! :)  Me and Kayla rode the same bike! Anna came with us and we climbed trees and a squirrel got mad at me!  Haha! Then with Rachael, her chain broke so I pulled her chain while she held on behind me! :P  Hahaha! :)  And Devotional was AMAZING!!! :)  It is so great! :)  I hope I get a letter from Brooks soon :) Life is so great! :)  I have so many great friends and I am still making tons more! :)  Yay! Well... Peace out gman! :)

I got TWO LETTERS!!! :D AWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAHHWW!! :)  One from Elder Hans Haroldsen, and another from Elder Brooks Browning.  OH MY!  They were really awesome letters!! :)  In Elder Haroldsens letter he told me about his role as a missionary and it was so great!  :)  And I wrote him back and talked a lot about patience and service!  Man, I miss that kid... I really hope he's doing well!!  And from Elder Brooks Browning!  Haha! I LOVED his Letter!! :)  I was laughing so hard!   It was sooooo great!  :)  His sense of humor just cracks me up!  I see it more and more every time that I get a letter and it seriously makes my day!! :)  He talked about stuff he likes to do and asked me about how school was, and stuff I like to do!  Hahaha!  Yeah and he talked about his mission!  Man, I am really excited for next semester and my classes!  But to be honest, I am more excited for my classes and trip over the summer..... I CAN'T WAIT ANY LONGER!!! haha!  But yes.. Life is pretty great!  Last semester was extremely stressful.. But I think that I will be TONS better next semester!  It starts Tuesday and I am taking classes that will benefit me and I hope to learn tons!! :)  Well....
