Decisions Decisions

One of my least favorite things to do is make decisions.  And I have to make one.  This weekend I have a few options..  

1)  Go to Manti and the pageant with my roommate Jaelyn.

2)  Go camping/Vegas with this random boy I met in Provo one night..

3)  Stay in Cedar and find something here.

So yeah... those are the options..and I don't want to make a decision.  The spontaneous side of me says to go camping/to Vegas.. but the smart side of me says to stay in Cedar.  And the fun part of me says to go to Manti.  I'm torn all over the place!  I've gotta decide by tomorrow afternoon though for when I either head to Manti or go with the random boy.

Total side note:  I freaking love my best friends!!!  I love that we talk often and talk about everything.  Phone calls with Tinana this week have been so great.  I didn't get to talk to Kate last night, but we did text a little and her blog is always awe inspiring.  Love those girls with all my heart <3

Another side note!  Andrew (my brother) proposed to his girlfriend last night!! I'm so excited for them :) They're getting married September 28th at 10:00 am.  It'll be such a fun time for them and I can't wait for it.  

This was the picture my mom sent me.  Aren't they cute??

And this is the picture my brother sent me!  I'm proud to say that I got to help pick out the ring even though I was four hours away in Cedar.  I can't wait to have a big sister!!

Quotes and Scriptures

"God does not call the qualified, He qualifies the called."

"Whatever your past has been, you have a spotless future."

"Realize how good you truly are."

"Even if you were the last person on earth, God would still allow the atonement to work for you."

"Whether you work in marble halls or stable stalls, you matter to Him."  Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Alma 28:12-14  "While many thousands of others truly mourn for the loss of their kindred, yet they rejoice and exult in the hope, and even know, according to the promises of the Lord, that they are raised to dwell at the right hand of God, in a state of never-ending happiness.  And thus we see how great the inequality of man is because of sin and transgression, and the power of the devil, which comes by the cunning plans which he hath devised to ensnare the hearts of men.   And thus we see the great call of diligence of men to labor in the vineyards of the Lord; and thus we see the great reason of sorrow, and also of rejoicing--sorrow because of death and destruction among men, and joy because of the light of Christ unto life."

Alma 29:13-16 "Yea, and that same God did establish his church among them; yea, and that same God hath called be by a holy calling, to preach the word unto this people, and hath given me much success, in the which my joy is full.  But I do not joy in my own success alone, but my joy is more full because of the success of my brethren, who have been up to the land of Nephi.  Behold, they have labored exceedingly, and have brought forth much fruit; and how great shall be their reward!  Now, when I think of the success of these my brethren my soul is carried away, even to the separation of it from my body, as it were, so great is my joy."

D&C 58:2-5  "For very I say unto you, blessed is he that keepeth my commandments, whether in life or in death; and he that is faithful in tribulation, the reward of the same is greater in the kingdom of heaven.  Ye cannot behold with your natural eyes, for the present time, the design of your God concerning those things which shall come hereafter, and the glory which shall follow after much tribulation.  For after much tribulation come the blessings.  Wherefore the day cometh that ye shall be crowned with much glory; the hour is not yet, but is nigh at hand.  Remember this, which I tell you before, that you may lay it to heart, and receive that which is to follow."

It's Been Awhile...

So really not much has been going on.. I got to visit my family a couple weekends ago and that was really good.  My brother and his girlfriend came and visited me last weekend.  They're great and I can't wait for them to get married!  It's not official yet, but he's most likely proposing on July 4th.  Then the date will be either October 5 or September 22.  Just depends on their schedules I guess...  But after they left he discovered that he left his backpack here so I went up to Provo on Monday to meet my mom and give it to her.  I then hung out with Tiana and spend the night with her.  It was truly thee best!  I honestly wish I was living in Provo.. Boys there are so so nice. There's so many people to wave at!  Tiana is going on dates like every other night basically and it just makes me so disappointed in the boys here in Cedar City.  Blah.  I just feel blah right now.  I'm about ready for a break from boys again...  We'll see.
I'm also just wondering how in the heck I'm going to make enough money to pay for school and housing and everything in the fall..  I'm sure everything will work out okay, but it stresses me out.  I'm in a blah mood.  I'm tired.  I need to catch up on sleep big time.  I need to do my laundry...

I do find joy in little things though, like we have 4 raspberries growing and a bunch of strawberries!  It's exciting.  It's kinda sad that I find joy in that and not other things..
Well, I'm gonna try to catch up on sleep since I don't teach lessons in the morning.
