I will dearly miss President Hinckley he has been the President of the church for nearly 13 years almost just shy of it by approximatley 2 months. I loved him, but I could tell at the last conference and at the Christmas Devotional that they had put on that he wasn't doing well.
What a great man.

President Hinckley Will Be Missed

Nothing too big and great
Right now there isn't a lot going on with me. But I will tell what I have been up to this past year I guess. So sorry this could be a little long and boring and repitous.
Last year I did an Intership for the Girls Scouts of Utah. I worked at a Girls Scout Camp called Camp Cloud Rim in Park City, UTAH. It was a wonderful summer even in some pain and discomfort as i sprained my ankle terribly on like the second day of training. It was pretty bad, but they still kept me on. I am grateful too because I have made so many friends from there. I had such good times there, being able to really get out of my comfort zone. I hiked a lot even though I didn't go really long distances really. But I got to go on some beautiful little hikey hikes. (ha ha)
I loved the beautiful scenery, and I lost weight while i was there. hard for me to believe that I lost forty lbs. but I did. But that's all at a stand still now. I actually gained five back since i have been home. But I fit in some clothes that I always wanted too. And I am a few sizes smaller. It's because the meals there were actually healthy. And before I could have a pop or milk, (we were told we had to have two glasses of water). HE HE i never drank water before i worked there. I drink a lot more water even now. And I don't eat a lot either. I just don't excercise because I am in Idaho. Great times at camp. it was beautiful, breath taking the first time i put my eyes on the grounds. So this was the summer of 2007.
Speaking of Idaho. I shall tell you of the goings on here now. Well I was working at Artco before I did go to the Utah Intership. But they let me go and said i quit. The jerks. But hey, now I am working at a great place, they totally work around my schedule as I am going to BYU-I. I now work for the Madison School District 321 (YES MY HIGH SCHOOL RIVALS) i am working at an elementary school custodian. Yeah not glamorous and great, but the Principal and all the teachers are so great too me. I am working for Lincoln Elementary. What's so great about it right now, is speaking of Idaho, that we have weather that is totally unpredictable. For two Tuesdays in January, I didn't have to work and I got paid for it, all because of what we call (Snow Days) wow that was so great. I didn't even get out of my pj's the whole day for both days. Yeah I love to lounge.
Now when ever it gets kind of stormy I am like Please don't be school ha ha. Today was stinkin' horrible. There were many roads closed and a lot of slide offs throughout the valley. Sad Day. But I was at my elementary school just working away and it stormed away outside.
My friend Krista and I along with her son Neil have been watching the Jeff Dunham videos, she introduced me too. So if you want to have a laugh, you should check him out, ha ha i just thought I would add that in there.
I am attending BYU-Idaho and I am a Recreation Leadership Major, I want to run a Bed & Breakfast Someday. I am currently deffered for this sememster. (Which means I will go back in either the summer or the Fall again.) Because I am Fall/Winter Terms. But I started to have a break down because i am in a lot of debt and I have to work while i am going to school. And it was all too much for me the Fall Semester, and I was ready to give up.
I go in and out of these slumps where I am depressed and then I fine. I feel like a loser sometimes because I haven't accomplished much and I am 28. But then again, I feel like I am at least progressing a little. I am at least not addicted to drugs, and living on the streets. I am a good person i think. I like being the peace maker, because my dad is self centered and always wanting to pick on me and my mother. It's a sad ordeal that I am always picking up the pieces and trying to make us happy again. Anyway, I hopefully can move out of here. Anyone know where there is a cheap apartment let me know, in the rexburg area.
Anyway, sorry that this was boring if you even made it through reading the whole thing. ha ha.
