Updatin and Spring Breakin’

Spring Break. 

Finally.

My brain has needed a break. 

I crushed my midterms. Which is amazing considering I couldn’t get myself to study for the life of me. Until the night before and morning of, that is. 

We are in Florida. 

We get to spend a few wonderful days with my girl Carlie (former member of the “SVU Babes” facebook messenger group and mission companion), Arizona and Lillian. Thank goodness for b*tches and beaches. 

We stopped at a gas station in Georgia and the black lady working at the Dairy Queen was rude to us. So much for “Southern Hospitality”. Maybe she was just having a bad day. 

I have a slight, or not so slight, fear of Alligators. 

Anyway. 

Some thoughts revolving around my life recently. 

I want to be driven in every avenue of my life. I want to achieve my dreams. And I want to excel and give all of myself to all of my different pursuits. 

Working, sports, education, personal health, assistant coaching, the gospel... I literally want to give all that I have to everything I am involved in. But I have finding that more difficult. Learning to prioritize and manage my time is a large growth thing for me right now. 

Assistant coaching the high school team fills my cup. I love those girls so much. 

I am starting to question my career choice. I feel as though I am having a slight “young-life” crisis, and I am scared at the path that my life is going to take. Every choice I make right now very well can control the rest of my life. That terrifies me. What if I choose wrong? What if I don’t find the fulfillment I am desperately seeking? Scary. 

I also. So much. Want to be self-sufficient. I have to work harder. But where. Is. The. Time?!

I want to open a soda shack in Buena Vista. Like. It would do so well. SO. Well. 

Spring season of soccer starts next week. 

My body isn’t ready. 

My brain is nervous. 

My heart is so ready to have that piece of me back that’s been missing for almost two years.

Anyway. Ready for some soccer, sunburn, and salutation from the Lord. 

Oh yeah. I got a stake calling as the Missionary Preparation Instructor. I am so excited for that. Let the mission live on. 

Also.

Arrived and gave a big old hug to Carlie. And dinner was to die for (thanks Licia) and was pushed rudely into the pool. 

Let the adventures begin. 

OH yeah. My girl Jam passed away. She was old. She lived a wild life. She saw her best friend murdered, and was shot in the head, She lived wonderfully, thriving off of the kitchen garabage and a high-quality dog food. She adventured hard. She will be missed. Love you Jamjam.
