Blessed!

This is Jenny. She is sooo sweet. She has serious alzheimers but gets around great.

Jenny is one of the ladys i feed. She loves to eat; best appitite ive ever seen. (shes also a member of the church)

This is Pricilla aka Cilla. Oh boy, this lady is a catch. Wouldnt know it but shes 100!

Yup a whole century "young". She is actually the resident that has most of her mind left.

haha she can be cold at times but heck shes 100 i probly would be too!

shes quit the cookie monster, "do you suppose there is a cookie of some sort lying around?"


One of our residents passed away last week. It was suprising but not. She had been declining, but at the end the decline reached a steep drop. Although it was sad it was releiving; after weeks of suffering she is now with our heavenly father.

Her two sons coming in showed such strong emotions of sorrow i could feel it.

The hurt in there eyes sadened me. I just wanted to tell them it would be ok and that she was with god and they could see her again.Its like more and more lately ive been seeing things and being so greatul for the gospel in my life.

I feel as though i have taken advantage of knowing so much. I feel like the world is missing so much! I have to say im blessed to have the church in my life and im greatful for eternal families and i cant wait to have my own one day =)

Aren't mondays suppose to suck??

I have been in college for one week and ive already beat my highest stress level.
Lucky i got everything taken care of just in time to be able to enjoy my second week.
Im enrolled in all the classes i wanted, and paid for them, ordered all by books and got a camera for my photography class. I feel today has been a super productive. Im very much enjoying this monday. This may be another record broken.

Highlights of My 9 Days Home

I went to warped tour

I got to catch up and have hours of girl talk with my two best friends

And i got to annoy my big brother while he visited from Texas.

Second Guessing... Its What I Do Best.

So when getting here Karen (my boss and the family friend i have been living with) informed me and my parents that i wouldnt be getting hired as an employee but as a volunteer. since i an a volunteer i have no income. My "income" is more of an allowance. This was fine... at first. See being the teenager that i am i have been running through my allowance which kind of defeats the purpose of saving for college. So.... Go home work and save for college? or! Stay here "volunteer" and take 3 classes at mpc? Really I DONT I KNOW!! If i go home things will be nice and regular id get a job and work, i would like to get in school but i doubt that since school starts in one week.Ifi stay here i can live in luxury of some independance and live up the college life. I want to do whats comfortable but maybe i should stick it out. Maybe my visit home is getting to me, and making me home sick.

Oh Goodness!! Decision Decisions!!

Theres no place like HOME!

Im coming home for a visit and im soooooo excited

On this trip home i will be going to a wedding, two wedding receptions, two birthday parties, a baby shower, a rave and a concert. yup im definatly living up my 9 days home. =)

Well there goes my plan!

Im a slacker! Most of the time im on top of things but then other times im all over the place.

This time was not a good time to be all over the place. I dont have things ready for BYUI.

So what am i going to do? Uh i dont have an answer. But im looking at this in a positive way. The world is my oyster... Right?

So.... now that things have changes i think ill try taking classes at monterey peninsula college. After that. Well i still have time to figure that out.

Living the cold life..

My Bedroom at home was my sanctuary, it was my favoritre place in the house. Cause it was all mine. Although my bedroom at "my parents place" cant be beat this room comes to a close second =)

My favorite thing about my "new" room is my deck.
yes i said my own deck :) with an AMAZING veiw!


One thing that kinda sucks that i really didnt expect is how cold it is, and not just once in a while but every single day. Although i have gone to the beach plenty of times in the few weeks ive been here i have never gone in. Its been way to cold.

I geuss this weather is just helping me for the long and cold winters in Idaho.
