It's The Final Countdown! (da da da duh... dadada da duh)

Well those months have flown by and now here I am... 24 days away from walking into the MTC in a whole new world...a new fantastic point of view.

I honestly cannot believe how fast these last few months have flown, I'm almost all set for this experience, just a few more things to tackle. But one thing I know for sure is that I do have a testimony of this Gospel, and I do know that for those who are willing to hear it and give it a chance that it will change their lives... just as it has changed mine. I know for those that read the Book of Mormon that they will know it is true, if they pray constantly about it and study it out in their hearts and minds. I know that prayer works, I have seen it work through my family and throughout the church. I know that Priesthood works and performs great miracles, also through my experiences at home. I know that Joseph Smith restored this church and that he did see the Father and the Son, through my studies of this last year. I know that President Monson is the Prophet on the earth today and if we listen and apply his and the apostles teachings, they will also aid us in the changing of our lives. These things I say to you are true, and I know it. I bear these things unto you the name of our Lord and Savior, yea even Jesus Christ. Amen.

¡Hola Córdoba!

I can't even begin to tell you the joy I feel right now. My mission call has arrived and the countdown has commenced. (about 3 months and 25 days, give or take) Today I spent my morning writing my acceptance letter to the First Presidency, trying to contain my high amounts of giddy-ness throughout that letter. However, now that I've received my call, there are still a few steps I need to take still. First and foremost, I need to send in that acceptance letter ASAP. Next, shots... and quite a few. (Oh in-between 1 and 2, I'm gonna receive the topic for my talk (yay!)) After that, I think I can be interviewed to go to the temple. And finally, after several months of waiting, the "Farewell" talk, and the final good-byes. Wow.... well, I'll keep y'all posted on such things. Good Light all!

Long Time.. No see

Haven't been on here for a while, but I can blame it on a good thing, work.

I've been working almost everyday of the week for the last 5 weeks and it has been an interesting experience. I've learned a lot about my co-workers and about myself here.

That aside, there's other more important news now. I've officially turned in my mission papers, now I'm just awaiting that envelope in the mail. there really hasn't been much else goin' on so, tty'all later.

Wow.... haven't updated this for a while

I've decided while my clothes are drying, I should update this.

So the season starts. Noooooo not fall. The football season! K, while officially it's only the preseason, it is still part of the regular season. Even though I've always love football, mainly cause of the Philadelphia Eagles, last year I decided I would really follow NFL watching games or even news about the games.

It's been fun, especially trying to decide which teams I would follow, besides the Eagles. I've decided on a few teams, but it's not solidified.

Last night was a fun night though, watching the NY Jets V the Baltimore Ravens. After goin' to Cold Stone to pick up a Blueberry Banana Smoothie, I sat down to watch this game. It was intense and very good. The final score was Ravens 24 Jets 23 due to the Ravens swatting down the Jets 2-pt. Conversion.

So yeah, I've got work once again today, I'm excited, today's the first day I get to work longer than 5 hours today, especially since I'm finally starting to get the hang of it.

Well so long for now!

Ellie is EVERYWHERE!

Quite literally in this picture

48......hours.....straight....... *snore*

This week I competed in a film festival held for all of the high schools. One of the areas of competition is the 48 hour shoot-out.

It was fun, long and tiring, but worth it for the video we came up with.

Here's the video, be warned, you could be offended by the content in it....

Scholarship: Deffered

For the past couple of months, I've been trying to defer the scholarship I attained for SUU.

While in constant contact with the SUU area rep, through email of course, we attempted to send it by fax, multiple times, and finally by letter.

When we sent it by letter and we didn't receive a fast response, I feared that it was lost.

However when I checked my Gmail account this evening, I saw an email to Julianna, the rep. saying that the deferment was posted and that it was waiting for me to come back from my mission.

I LOVE SUU!!!
