Happy HOlidays!

Kay, I know I'm late, but who cares! MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Let's see..how was my Christmas?
Well I worked. I thought I would at least have the afternoon off, but nope. I did however have like four hours off from 5-9. I didn't mind. Once I got off I rushed to my aunts spent like fifteen minutes with them, and then ran to my other vaivais house to eat. LOL! I mean, she did buy extra food just for me and my family to come by? It was delicious! Then rushed back home to get ready for the rest of my weekend shift!

Some news I got today. We may be getting a new room mate? For at least a month. He's an old friend of my brothers, and I don't mind that he's moving in. He's pretty coolio, and he's just trying to stay here to make things work financially! Well, here's a big blog welcome my friend!

Anywho, there's nothing new or exciting other than the end of the year. Boy where did the time go? Well 2011! I'm ready for you, or getting ready to take you on by storm. Got lots of "Long-Term Resolutions" and I'll post that later. Some of them even make me look at it like hmmmmm.
Well til next time...

MISSION CALL!!!!!

I have been called to serve in the Peru Trujillo Mission. Can I just say I am having mixed emotions about where I am going. LOL! I am super excited that I am getting called to serve in Peru, but at the same time I am terrified!

When I initially turned my papers in I, like most soon to be missionaries, said to myself where ever the Lord calls me, that is where I will go. Then when my mission papers got "postponed" I told myself, well the states wouldn't be too bad. I mean there's indoor plumbing, fast food chains, packages will arrive with their full contents in store, etc...The states is where I am most comfortable. So when my little brother started to read the letter that was sent to me, I secretly within my mind was wishing it would read Portland, Oregon. Oakland, California. Salt Lake City, Utah. Somewhere where I have family and know that while I am in the Lord's hands I'm also surrounded by family who's hands will take care of me too. So when my brother read Peru, my eyes almost popped out of its sockets. I thought he was playing around with me before he read my real mission call! While at first I was dumbstruck and kept repeating Peru over and over again in my mind and out loud I started to get scared. I know this is just prejitter feelings and as I prepare faithfully and with vigor for my journey ahead, I'll be comforted-at least I hope so.
-Well til next time blog world-

Hello

I wanted to say hello to the blog world out there. There isn't much to say, but happy holidays. I know I don't have many followers or readers, but I'm not really here for that. This blog is somewhere where I can express myself without having to watch what I say or keep in mind who reads this. I love it. Not much of my family or friends blog so I'm happy I have this space. I'll keep this first blog short because I'm still trying to get into the groove of things, but I didn't want to make this blog and leave it empty. So here I am blog world. Happy holidays!
-til next time.
