About You in 2011 :)

-This is last years about you, I will write a new one each year.

Hey best friend! Glad you are interested in what you can learn about yourself! I would say you and I are sincere with other people and mostly with yourself. Let me explain, I sometimes play this game with myself where I don't think I can handle as much as I really can. I let myself slack off because I think I can't do it anymore instead of pushing through it. I can work on that. So, I also think I am very confident and outgoing! Once I came to BYU I was challenged with this. But, I've come out knowing that people like me and want me to be their friend so gotta just believe it myself. I am super funny haha :) to myself at least. I think I'm pretty legit. It's not like I don't have insecurities but I know that regardless of my downfalls I still have so much value and potential and beauty that hard things don't seem to be over bearing as they do to others. I remain hopeful and confident when trials come. Hopeful...Dallin Chad is my greatest example of hope. We've gotten in some sticky mud and he's always been able to pull us out and keep pushing. No matter what happens with me while he's on his mission I will forever be grateful towards him for teaching me hope. He also has taught me to keep trying. :) Well enough about him more about me right! haha jk so obsviously Dallin is my boyfriend, Chelsea Dalton is my best friend and my roommates (who I LOVE) are Vanessa, Paige, Kim, Kristy and Kirsten! My life is surrounded by the coolest people ever! Including my awesome family :) as of right now Stephani is the only one married and has been for the past year to a way awesome guy Pablo! Kim will probably be next to marry to Jesse Barton and shortly following that Adam I am sure will jump on the band wagon with his girl Amy. So...basically before Dallin gets home everyone will most likely be married so...cool :/ blah. Chelsea will be married to Alex too. And if all of this doesn't work out like I said...I'll be very surprised! Welcome to life right? haha And I can't even start to talk about my family without mentioning the very people who brought me into this lovely world. Mom and Dad of course! I love em, what more can I say! Dad is trying to remain involved in his kids life in everyway he can :) and mother is loving each of us like always! And my Father in Heaven. I still don't comprehend how much he loves me and don't know if I ever will, but the small understanding I have of it so far is enough to blow my mind. He is incredibly merciful. I have felt it's over and he sends angels to comfort me. He never gives up on me and knowing that pushes me forward. I was asked to set my priorities in church, so if I could choose it would be Church, Family, School, Relationships...truthfully it goes Relationships, Family, Church, School. So we'll have to work on that :) I look forward for the future. I've got a bright and happy future ahead if I continue trying my best to obey my Father in Heaven. I love ma life!

It's a New Year!

I am way excited for this next year! I have a feeling a lot of great things are going to happen. I hope to fall in love, begin to become the person I've always wanted to be, and make a lot of new friends! My new years resolutions are taking a picture everyday, writing in my journal everyday, and not eating any chocolate. So far so good! This is the year I won't see Dallin at all. And I have a very positive attitude about it! In February, next month on the 26th it will be 6 months since he has left, 1/4 of the way through his whole mission! It's going by fast! I am counting in 6 month marks! Which are clearly going by way way fast! I am feeling really positive about life right now! Money is really tight, but I have so much to be grateful for. Heck, I am grateful for being grateful! I have direction and passion and love in my life, and a lot of people are lacking in all three. I am really happy. I think a year from now, I will basically be the same but hopefully just more on the ball with things. I think keeping a journal will be good to help me see my growth. Well, there is a lot to be happy about. I hope to help those around me see the beauty in their life as well. I think even the small things that could upset your whole day can be change with the attitude, it will all work out in the end, just keep working. I am so happy :)
