School

Even though I tend to hate it a lot I am grateful for the education I am receiving here at BYU! I love learning for sure it's just a lot to learn at once sometimes. But It's totally awesome!

I'm an Earth and Space Science Education Major, and an Astronomy minor. This means I get to learn about really awesome things about the earth and universe and then turn around and teach then to students in high schools. AWESOME!!

What do you like to learn about?

Family

I'm grateful for my family. They are always there for me. I love them so much. I recently had an argument with someone and was pretty upset about it. My family was quick to respond to make me feel better. It was awesome.

I love this picture because Jacob looks so cute and little! Also it's of my family.

My favorite memories with my family are

• Umpire
• Sunday nights singing or just laughing for hours
• Dark Tag
• Awesome movies
• playing games
• FHE
• and more!(you love those lists that end in "And More!" don't you?)
  

What about your family?

Forgiveness

I'm grateful for forgiveness. Especially for that of the people who read this blog who will forgive me for not posting everyday (crazy weekend guys). :D

But mostly I'm grateful for the forgiveness we can receive when we sin. It's all made possible through the Atonement of Christ. And I am so grateful for it.


What are you grateful for?

New Directions

I decided I want to take this blog in a new direction. I'll turn it into a gratitude blog, where I'll try everyday to post one thing I'm grateful for. I won't necessarily write something about it but there it will be. Maybe a picture too from time to time or a video.

What are you Grateful for?

Oh Joy

So I just want to say how grateful I am to have The Church of Jesus Christ of LatterDay Saints in my life. It's an immense blessing to know God's plan for us and to know that there is always some one there for me to talk with.

I think one of the greatest realizations I've come to because of having this Church is that I don't care who I impress or what people think of me as long as I'm keeping the commandments and doing things to make God proud. It's an awesome feeling fo' sho'.

Have you had any epiphanies lately?

Do the best you can ...then do a little better!

The title is a quote by President Hinkley.

I think it's great.

Anyways, this week I had 2 tests. On in Chemistry and one in my Philosophy class.

I studied for my chemistry test a lot and still wasn't feeling very confident. But I said my prayers and I said "I've studied so much please help me to do well on this test. Please oh please oh please oh please!"

And guess what I got an 85%, 5% above the class average!!! Yes I think it's a good grade and I'm very grateful for the blessings from God I have received that help me to do well in school.

I also got an 88% on my other test. I'm pretty happy right now!

Sorry...

Ok sad day this blog has more followers than my other one and yet I never update, but this year I resolve to do better. I will start with today.

Today was great! Nothing spectacular happened but that isn't a requirement for a great day. No I think a great day happens when we look at all the little blessings we have received throughout the day. The day was ordinary but I just feel so blessed to have the opportunities I have and my health and a loving support system.

I love going to BYU and I love studying Geology! This Earth is just such an amazing place we live in and it's so beautiful too!

Yep so That's my short insight for today. I'll be back later with more.

God Speed.
