•• slacker ••

I'm sorry everyone but lately I have been JAM PACKED with crap I need to do because guess what! I am leaving for AZ right after school tomorrow! HOLLA! Sun time before spring break I am the happiest girl! But that means a butt load of homework! Did you see my insta post yesterday? Yeah that's a lot!! Well anyways yesterday and today have been amazingly great days for both Sarah and I! I have no idea why but Sarah and I have FINALLY been reunited after her trip to Cali last weekend and man oh man did I miss her a long weekend with out her? I am pretty sure I started to go insane! But she's back and now I'm not... And guess what she is leaving me over spring break too!! Mamma Willes if you read this (which I doubt you do) can I PLEASE come with you over spring break! I am basically part of the family! But holy today we basically had a water fight at school then we went to zurchers, got Girl Scout cookies, drove "drunk" (we are high on good weather) then we t...

week 8 notes: -God listens as long as we are willing to talk. -you need to be strong enough to choose the good decision everytime. -time is never for sale. -Where your treasure is there may your body be also. -engage God, study scriptures, apply the principles, live standards, draw nearer to god. -if you don't have time to read and study your scriptures you are busier than god ever intended you to be. -have you spiritually been born of god? (had a mighty change of heart) -have you been saved by the atonement? have you been changed by the atonement? -repentance isn't only righting the wrong but actually changing -remission of sins = healing of sins -atone is to restore harmony -we aren't perfect and god expects perfection that's where the atonement comes in. -give me all you have and i'll make up the difference -the atonement is personal to all of us  scriptures: -time to prepare & good better and best (Two talks to read) - Matthew 6:22 -D...

•• I don't wanna grow up ••

Sometimes I like to picture myself in different scenarios of me all grown up. I have pictured me as a photographer traveling the world, a teacher, a marine biologist spending time with animals and on the beach in Cali, as a blogger in New York, as a stay at home mom in Nashville, as a personal trainer for a big sports team. I don't know where I want to be in a few years, I don't know what I want to go to college for. I keep thinking I have time to figure it all out but in all honesty I don't I mean senior year is right around the corner and college is a block away and right now the road is so foggy! It's funny because when I was younger I pictured my life with me falling in love with my high school sweetheart (don't have one) living in draper (I want to get out of here so bad) working as a teacher (still a possibility) but everything has changed so much since then because all I want to do is travel. "Traveling is the only think that you can buy to make you ri...

So I've been slacking in readers lately! And it's makin me pretty sad! :( but here is a 5 things to post to "start" march off. 1. Mission calls are everywhere! I hate it cause I don't want them to leave then I think why they are leaving and I love it! I'm a crier so if you see me at a call opening ill probably be crying! 2. Student Body Elections are coming up soon and I'm not scared but I'm worried cause I heard I was running against Justin Hunt, if you know this kid you know he could potentially be a threat ;) but I'm hoping that the third time will be the charm and my senior year will be my year to be an SBO! Any slogan ideas for me? Let me know! 3. Girls can I give you advice? Friend zone all boys-ALL-it will save you in the long run because let's be real you don't want them until they are an RM anyways ;) friend boys > boy friends anyway. 4. My creative side came out this week and I am very pleased with the out come! My wal...

// friends \\

friendship is when a person knows you and is still your friend. a friend will never get in your way unless you are going down. i have been truly blessed to have such great friends. including all of my friends for reasons, seasons and the ones i know ill have for a lifetime! my girls have been there through everything, through the tears, the laughs and the moments they just wanna kill me cause i am so annoying. they love me through it all. its crazy to think that at the beginning of this year i didn't even know who some of my best friends were like sarah willes she was in my english class but i never talked to her and now look at us, inseparable. we have so many crazy adventures together and there will be plenty more to come. i didn't know who Ry or Josh or Jake or Ezra were at the beginning of this year and now we hang out almost every week end. friendship isn't measured by how long you have known each other or how much you have in common but by how well you can connect thr...

so as most of you thought..i hadn't gotten asked to prom, but guess what? i did go! prom: Whether you've dreamed about prom night since you still wore footie pajamas, or even the thought of dancing in public gives you butterflies in your stomach, prom is a night you’ll never forget. Of course, you may remember it as being cool, funny, embarrassing, awesome or totally lame the night depends on you. Prom is a day that every little girl dreams about, every teenage girl experiences, and every woman looks back on. Prom night is a night w here looking like a princess is expected, and you dance the night away. it can also be the most stressful and hectic day of the year i imagine weddings will be somewhat like this. so my day went a little like this... wait lets back it up a little here is how my friday went. my friends kidnapped me after school and took me to go get some u-swirl because they are amazing, they wrote me notes and made me cry..again.. it was so sweet...
