¡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!

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!!!

You're Kidding Right?

It's finally here, the Final Election week. It's hard for me to believe just a year ago I was a huge part of this, not knowing what the final outcome may be. But now, I'm overseeing it all, answering any of the candidates questions, helping with posters about the big assembly and pep rally this Friday, and preparing for the skit that this year's Student Council will perform during the assembly. There is however, a big sigh of relief though, I don't have to worry about winning or losing this time. I just have to worry about choosing someone to take my place. I've been looking real hard for options all year, we have one possible candidate for a Junior Tech Rep. however, he's still thinking about it (I hope he says yes, it would make it easier on me.) I'm now in the process of looking for a Senior Tech Rep. but so far, I haven't been able to find any for sure. There's at the moment one possibility, I just need to talk to her and see if it is alright with her that she takes this position.

...Still can't believe I'm almost done with Stud Co, I think I'll fail my classes this term so I can at least stay one more year....
