So fall semester has definitely been one of my favorite and least favorite semesters. Some reasons why it has been my favorite. One- I love my roommates. Rebekah, Amanda, Eno, Melanie, Kathryn, and Mary are six of the best girls I could ever ask to live with. We all get along so well and we all have a ton of fun together. No one is too stuck up or too high strung to jump into our impromptu dance parties with music videos projected on the wall or to spend 2.5 hours doing just dance on the wii. It is always so fun at our house. Its nice to always have someone to chat with and just hang out with. It is my first time living with so many people and it has been so fun. Thank you girls, you have influenced my life for the better. I am going to be so sad to leave them when I head off for Jerusalem in January. I seriously will miss them.
Number two reason- Grant! My relationship with Grantler has become so wonderful. We have had some tough moments but we have been able to work through everything to come out as an even stronger couple. We have been dating for a little over 5 months now, all long distance. It will be six more months before we aren't long distance but I know we can do it. We have been so blessed to see each other about every three weeks with a month being the longest we have been separated. When I leave for Jerusalem that will change but then I will head straight to AZ to be with Grant and hopefully never leave him :)
Number three reason- My schedule is great! School has been great this semester. I enjoy my classes for the most part and I have plenty of down time even though I work too. It has been great.
Number four reas0n- I feel peace in my life. I feel good and happy and ok. I Know that my Savior loves me and that He has blessed me. I know that my Heavenly Father loves me and that He is always there for me, willing to help me. I love the scriptures. I made a goal to read them everyday since the semester began and so far I only missed one day! While not everyday do I have an intense study, I am always putting the effort forth to at least spend a little bit of time in the scriptures. This has blessed my life. I hope that I will be able to keep achieving this goal and that I can improve and do better in my scripture study.
Now that I have talked about all the good things of the semester, the bad have faded away. Life is GOOD. We are supposed to be joyful and happy. That is what life is about, creating happiness for ourselves and for those around us.
Sorry for the long post. I just wanted to write a bit how I was feeling. I hope you have a wonderful day! Remember the good.
