Update Time!!!

2010-09-14T16:12:00.000-07:00

Well as I told you in the revious post, i am now officially working at Baylor in Plano!! It is absolutely fantastic! If you didn't know, Baylor is a faith based hospital. So that means I can openly talk about my beliefs with my co-workers and say thank yous to my Heavenly Father at lunch time with out being looked down on or challenged. I've even had two missionary eperiences in the first two weeks of working there. They both ended in refferals to the mormon.org website. Absolutely fantastic!! People are just all around great here. I love it!

As you also know I was a bridesmaid for my friend Rita. I am going to say that it was pretty much super fun. Two of my favorite things rolled up in to one, dressing up and being with my friends. Haha such a girl, right ?! Haha I only wish I had a camera too. I love taking pictures. Here are some pictures that my friend Bethany took. :)

Before Hair and Make-up. :) Well I guess it will only let me put all the pictures at the top of the post so they are all up there haha.

Something new that recently happend is a YSA Conference. It was super cool. I went to one class and the topic was Health. I learned alot about the importance of Vitamin D and Melatonin vitamins. Both up your chances greatly in preventing cancer or other diseases! Time to start a new vitamin regimine. Then we watched the CES Fireside, and it was on Eternal marriage. I learned alot over the weekend.

Well I think that is all for now aside from my sister performing in The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe Production on the 24th. But I'll take pictures and tell you about it when that comes.

Untill next time...

-Heather

Haha Still Trying. Here is a new update. :)

2010-08-13T13:49:00.000-07:00

Well I recently got back from EFY and it was fantastic! I loved every minute of it. I ended up doing 3 sessions. (One in Denton and two in San Antonio) The theme for this year was Courage to Stand Strong and the scripture was found in Joshua 1:9. "Have I Not Commanded The? Be Strong and of Good Courage, Be not Afraid, Neither Be thou Dismayed for the Lord Thy God is With The Whithersoever Thou Goest." I loved teaching this principal to my youth. No matter where you are in life, if you stay true to our Heavenly Father, his commandments and his teachings; he will always be there for you in return. I have a firm testimony of that.

When all the youth were sent home on saturday of my last week, I decided to go river rafting with some of my new found counselor friends. It was fantastic to go and sit in tubes on the river and just relax from a well worked week. Though I think the sun loved me a little too much in return. I ended up comming home with a severe sunburn that had fever under it and wouldn't allow me to move around all that much. With a lot if help from aloe vera and making my body move, when it didn't want to, I was healed within a couple of weeks. Now I just have this lovely new tan. :)

Now that I'm all better from the sunbite and tonsilitis, I can finally enjoy being home.

I am currently undergoing extreme excitement as I help a friend of mine prepare for her wedding. Haha the joys of being a bridesmaid. Everything from the Bridal Shower(s) and the Bachlorette party, to keeping her sane on the bigh day. It is going to be a great adventure.

Also, I am in the process of being hired at Baylor Plano in their Dr.'s Offices, and oh boy its a long process. First, there is a deep background check, then a drug test, and finaly a Pre-Employment Health Evaluation. All in all, it is a two week process before I get to officially start. I can't wait to start though. :) I'm just nervous that when I start, I have to make sure I get time off for my friend's wedding. Hopefully that goes well. I can officially say that I work there on the 23rd of this month.

Well I think that's all for now. I promise I'll keep trying to update. :) life is great and buisy

Until Next time....

Test Score and Other Stuff

2010-05-01T09:08:00.000-07:00

Well I took the CMA test and the result...... an 89!! Time to go look for a job at a hospital!! On another note, I am SOOOOOO Excited to be a Counselor at EFY this Year! So excited to where I'm already packing a little bit each day. I cant wait to spend a full week in a complete gospel centered environment helping the youth of the church gain an understanding of the gospel and strengthening my testimony as well in the process. I cant wait to meet the group of amazing daughters of God that I will get to reach out to and spend a great week with. If I could do EFY all summer I would! In fact I think I might just ask for one more week off work so I can not only do the Denton Session but the Huntsville Session as well. hmmm We'll see. That's whats going on right now. I'll try to get better at updating this. TTYL

Hair Cut

2010-04-09T18:07:00.001-07:00

Here is a Picture of the New Cut. :) I like it and i think im going to keep it short for a while.

Another Perfectly Good Catch-Up Post In My Life

2010-03-29T20:51:00.000-07:00

Well It's Official, I'm not a great blogger. :) So I guess from now on I'll start off with the things that I missed telling you.(In list form)
- After 3 months of working with Allen Pediatrics I got laid-off due to the financial unstability of the practice.
- I cut my hair short. It's an A-line Cut and in the front its a few inches below my chin. Sorry I dont have a picture to show you. I'm trying to find the perfect picture to post on here. :)
- I have put in my paperwork to be a counselor at EFY this Summer. I'm SUPER excited!!! I love working with the youth and I love sharing my testimony of the gospel. :D
- Just recently found a new job at an internal medicine doctor and so far it has been a good experience. I'm refreshing my memory on how to do the things I went to school to learn. It's just hard sometimes because the doctor is pure indian and his accent is so strong to where I have to go over what he's saying over and over again in order to decode it. The other MA's in the office are a great help too.
- Right now I am preparing to take the National Certification test in April. If you remember what the ACT was like, then put it in health career terms and you've got the test. So im trying to remember all I can to pass it. The official test date is on April 9th, and I'm counting down the days.
- I do still have the goal to move out of my parents home in July(Well as Far as plan A goes). I am looking at an appartment in Plano with a good friend of mine and hopefully it all works out. I'm just dreading the start of Student loan payments next month and I'm definatley hoping it doesn't interfere with the plans. But if it does, I dont mind waiting for the man of my life to come into the picture and take me away. :) haha
- Speaking of True love. I have the most amazing opportunity to be a bridesmade to a good friend of mine who is getting married in september. I am soo excited for her! and they are soooo cute together. Just Saying :)
Well i have to get some sleep now. Working bright and early tomorrow morning. Love you all.

Well here is some pictures taken at graduation. :)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well to update you on what's going on...

I am now working at Allen Pediatrics and so far it is going well. My birthday was good As well. I will be back to post more once there is more to post. Until next time.

Super Duper Update :)

2009-10-22T09:16:00.000-07:00

Wow I need to learn to get better at this. :) Well anyways I have completley finnished school at Remington college and I am now officially a medical assistant. I just have to start sending out my resume now (since externship is over). I had an amazing time working at Texas Child Neurology. The Patients were the greatest. They put a smile on my face everyday (but don't kids do that everyday anyways). I also loved working with the co-workers that I had and the Doctors were great as well. I would deffinatley recomend that facility to any child needing a neurological doctor. I was bummed when they said that they were not currently hiring but I am glad to have had the experience. My Graduation Ceramony is on November 12 (5 days after my birthday) at the Eisman Center in Richardson. I'm so excited! Mainly because this will be my first time walking accross a stage for a graduation. Since I was Home Schooled my last two years of high school I was not able to do the cap and gown thing when I got my diploma. They just sent my diploma in the mail and said congradulations. Not only am I excited to walk accross the stage in a cap and gown , but i'm also excited to be graduating with honors. Yay. Perfect Attendance and Deans List. :) I would post up pictures form my senior assembly but my camera is dead at the moment so I will have to wait untill I get my graduation pictures done as well.
Man I do have to say that heavenly father has blessed me soo much in my life, and I am very grateful for that.
As for Young Single Adult stuff, it's just the usual good stuff. I do still attend FHE and institute. Sometimes even going to the Allen YSA events as well. Also, as I've already told most of you ( I think the weekend after) That I got to go to this amazing conference at the Fort worth stake Center. It was amazing because I got to meet and shake the hand of President Uchdorf. One of the best sprirtual experiences I've ever had.
Another pretty cool thing that's comming up is the big 2-0 bithday for me. It's kind of weird but cool at the same time. The only thing is that it's the only birthday that I don't know what I'm going to do. I have no party planned and I can't really think of anything special that I want to do (Other than hang out with family and friends, of course). So I've told my Friends That I'm leaving it up to them to decide. Throwing it all up in the air. We'll see where that goes. :)
Well I have to Update my resume and get to planting them. We'll see how that goes. Till I eventually write again,

Heather

Haha wow

2009-09-08T04:17:00.001-07:00

Sorry it has taken me a long time to update this. For a little while I almost for got I had a blog. Life has been a good type of buisy and I'm about ready to make more out of what I've learned so far. There is so much to catch you up on to where I don't know where to start. How about the car accidents. A month or two ago I got into two consecutive car accidents within 5 days of each other. One in a thursday and the other one the following monday. On the thursday car wreck I got rerended in the carolla, and on monday I rerended a big truck in the volvo. The Volvo was the car that didn't survive.

so yea now my dad and I share the corolla. I drive him to work and then i drive to school. I'm the main driver of the car so i guess it makes it mainly my car. :) But i share.

I can't remember any of the little stuff that happened between then and now. Other than the 2 weeks that I had the house to myself. My family went to navoo and I had to stay behind to attend school. It was pretty peaceful and i deffinatley made Dean's list that month. Well i've been making dean's list for a while now.

Speaking of school. I'm in my last month. Only 2 more weeks until my externship(this week and next). I have an interveiw this thurdsay for it at 8:45 am. They've placed me at Texas Child Neurology in plano. So I get to work with kids that have cerebral palsy, Downsyndrome and stuff like that. I'm soo excited! Hopefully after extern they'll hire me on. Mainly b/c I'm planning on moving out next spring and i have to get a phone and a car under my name before I do that. My friend jessica and I are planning on moving to Plano and rooming together in a 2bed/2bath apartment. I promise you can come visit when we are officialy moved in.

Well I have to get some excersize in before I go to school. So I will try to write later. See Ya!

Just Some Quick Information

2009-03-17T07:13:00.000-07:00

Well this is going to be a quick update.
Yesterday we learned how to do a minor surgical procedure and remove stitches. Thank goodness we didn't practice on each other this time around, but it wasn't a mannequin either. It just so happened that we performed surgury on a pig's foot! At first I was a bit grossed out but I got over it quickly and did the procerdure really well. I can't wait to see what's in store for today. I'm so Excited. I must say I really am enjoying school. The minor surgical procedure was draining and removing a cyst from the pig's foot. Haha...yeeaa. Well I'm starting class so I'll write again soon.

2nd Test Scores

2009-03-10T06:52:00.000-07:00

For my second set of tests I was a bit nervous to find out what I earned. I was worried about it all weekend. Then Monday came along First class went by and then it was off to my second class (the one I took the tests in). Mrs. Caldwell Handed back our tests as soon as class started. When I looked at the theory, I got a 100 and then I looked at the terminology and it was another perfect 100. I was definitely relieved. My goal to be on the dean's list is still going strong. :)
As for other news, the YSA activities are going great and Institute is definatley still a knowlege builder. I'm very excited for this friday though, because there is a dance and some of my friends and I are dressing up in 50's attire. I've already gotten a circle skirt and scarf for the outfit.
Today after school I'm going to a doctor's appointment to get a large bump on the back of my head checked out. It's been causing some really bad headaches, and I rarely get just a headache. Most of the time it's migranes. Hopefully all goes well in that department.
Well that's all for now. I'll write again tomorrow.

First Test Scores

2009-03-03T07:38:00.000-08:00

Well I've just resently had my first two tests in school and I just have to say....I got a 100% on both of them! Just had to let you all know that.
This week in school we are learnig and practicing immunisations(Shots). One of the shot spots on my arm is brused but the other two are still fine. We started this unit yesterday and I was really anxious. I wasn't anxious to get the shots, just anxious to give them. I was afraid I would do it wrong or something. It went well though. We don't use real medicine when practicing, we use saliene. In my other classes we are learning about different drugs, their source and practicing on some more word elements. I am really loving school right now and I can't wait for classes to start each day. Studying is even fun because I am learning new things and I am starting to get the health care professional's point of veiw when working with patients. Well I have to get ready for class. I always come early to school for study time, but class is about to start so I'll try to write again soon.

School Officially Starts

2009-02-25T07:25:00.000-08:00

Well... I've Officially started school! It's been great so far and I love my teachers. These ones seem happy to be teaching for a change. My first class is to learn how to operate the front office. That includes keyboarding, Scheduling and all the legal stuff that goes into a medical office. My second class is Medical theory. It's about the actual sicknesses and how you get them. After that is Medical Lab, and that is the real fun stuff. It's all hands on and we practice the procedures on each other. Not mannequins. Then its off to Medical Spelling and terminology. How to decode/ spell medical words and stuff like that.
We've already started learning how to take vital signs, Decode vocabulary and the cycle of transmission of diseases.
Well Im doing this on a school computer so I'm going to get off now. I'll try to write again soon.

Another Catchup - February 16th, 2009

2009-02-16T14:58:00.000-08:00

Now let me tell you about each item. :)
The new family schedule consists of Getting up at 5:30 am to excersize while Naomi is at seminary, then its Shower, Family breakfast at 8 am and then School work at 9am-2pm then it's family time the rest of the day. Some times there are exceptions to the schedule. Like any YSA Activity, such as, FHE or Institute. Those activities normally end around midnight or one and then I go to bed and start the same schedule over again the next day. Thank goodness for Chocolate right. lol
Valentines day was pretty good. We had a farwell party the night before for my friend Mauri who is going on her mission at the end of the month. Any ways, Josh came over and we watched a Hallmark Channel Movie. (Yes we are still together. 4 months and Counting) He had brought me some pink and white roses, A large heart shaped box of Dove cocolate and a pink teddy bear. Verry Sweet. :) I gave him a cupcake form Sprinkles(Red Velvet).
On Feb. 23 I'm planning on starting College over at Remington. The Dallas Campus is in Garland off of 635. Remington is a vocational school. I'm going to study to become a Medical Assistant. The program is about 8 months. I'm very excited. I just have to get the Financial Aid meeting out of the way (Feb.17) and the Orientation on Feb. 19th.
I'm ready to get buisy with life so here i go! :) I will try to keep you all updated the best I can.

Twilight and Other Things

2008-11-24T23:40:00.000-08:00

Hey Everyone!
Well I enjoyed the Twilight movie. At first I wasnt pleased with it because it left a few scenes out from the book. Then I got to thinking, well, this movie has introduced a lot of people to the book and now more people want to read it. You gotta leave some surprises in the book for new readers. So Yea I do like the movie.
I have to say Josh is great. He was letting me use his Honda to learn how to drive. HaHa I accidently scrapped some one elses car when trying to park, and I ran into a few curbs. I keep feeling bad that I keep messing up his car but he says he dosn't mind. I still feel bad about it. The crazy part is that he still lets me drive it! What a good sport. lol I know some of you would be, let's just say, not to happy with me if that happend to you. Ending Comment: Josh is great. :)
I'm studying like crazy for my next ACT. Not looking forward to it that much but it needs to get done. I just hope I get a better score than I did last time.
Well I have to catch up on some sleep soo I'll write again later.
- ciao

Ouch! 11-19-08

2008-11-19T22:58:00.000-08:00

Today I was a Injury magnet. I was trying to get things done around the kitchen today and stubbed my toe on a planter that my mom owns. I didn't think anything of it when it happend but then it started to throb. I looked down and my baby toe was gushin out blood. Oh boy I though, just what i need, a messed up toe. So I sat down to get it cleaned up. Lo and behold, the top part of my toe was lacerated. I then decided I should go to a doctors office to get it checked out. I didn't think it would be anything too bad. I thought they would just bandage it up and send me home. HaHa boy was I wrong. First they updated me on my Tetnus shot, then they x-rayed my toe to see if it was broken. Good thing it wasn't. I got 3 stiches in my toe to help it heal and I have to wear a boot to keep my foot from bending for two weeks (until they get the stiches out). I don't get to wear heels for two weeks and I love wearing heels. :( They also gave me some pain killers and anti-biotics to let it heal. I guess its time for me to just rest for a few days. I'm still going to see Twilight though. I would never miss out on that. Oh I forgot to tell you. Before I stubbed my toe. I burned my thumb on the toaster trying to get my toast out and I ran in to a couple of things. Haha super cluts today. :) Well hopefully this heals fast.
Talk to You later.

Catch Up Time!

2008-11-17T00:02:00.000-08:00

Hey You All!!
Sorry I haven't posted any thing in a while. Life has been so busy and even when I do have the time, I forget I have a blog.
On October 24th, some of my family and I traveled to Atlanta, GA to visit my dad's mom for her birthday. I loved visiting her b/c for one I hadn't seen her in 4-5 years and also she was literally surprised that we showed up. She was so surprised to where she couldn't speak until my dad said "Hi Mom, This is Mike." She told her friends that she thought she was seeing things. We stayed there for four days and drove the 18 hours back home. *Just in time for institute* :)
November 1st was a YSA costume party/carnival. I dressed up as a Night Fairy with fake elf ears and everything (large wings included). It was pretty fun. There was Bobbing for apples, Balloon Darts, and pumpkin carving. Oh and a costume contest. I had a pretty good time..
November 7th was my birthday! I'm now officially 19 years old and still doing the best I can with what heavenly father gives me. Josh took me out that day and I got to try out the laser tag for the first time. I had never played Laser tag before in my life but I loved it! Same with the roller coaster simulator at main event. Loved It !! Oh and I did have a birthday lunch with my family at Olive Garden. Yum :) You need to try the black tie cheese cake. It is amazing... excpecially if you're a chocoholic!
November 8th was the birthday party and boy was it a good time. You get 6 young adults with 8 bottles of Sparkling Cider and Breckenridge Park...Man you got a good time on your hands. We did everything from Shooting water guns, to playing sardines in the Forrest after dark.
November 14th was a YSA Dance and it was basically like all the others. Only this time, I was trying to see how high i could kick and I kicked so hard to where I flipped backwards and landed on my back. Don't worry I didn't get hurt, I just started laughing hysterically.Oh what a memory. :) People wanted me to do it again b/c It was so funny.
That same night Josh and I were talking and decided that we could try the boyfriend/girlfriend thing out. Soo Josh is now officially my boyfriend. It's so weird to say that but cool at the same time.
As for things that haven't happened yet but will. (look for posts on these events)
November 21st- I 'm going to the midnight showing of TWILIGHT!! I can't wait. ;)
December 7th- I have to have "The Living Christ" Memorized for Institute
December 13th- I'm taking the ACT for the 2nd time.

I'll keep doing my best to keep you updated on whats going on in my life.
Talk to You Later.

Halloween Dance - October 10th 2008

2008-10-12T18:09:00.000-07:00

I went to a dance this past Friday and had a pretty good time. I tried to dress up as Christine from Phantom of the Opera but they wouldn't let us wear masks. So I just went with what ever people called me. There was Cinderella, Belle(Beauty and the beast), Wendy (Peter Pan) , and a fairy princess with no wings. I forgot to take pictures, so this one is by the good grace of my friend Camille. (I'll be sure to take pictures more often) SORRY for the lack of pictures. :/

The Family Trip - September 25th to September29th

2008-09-29T13:25:00.000-07:00

This past Friday my family and I traveled to Huntsville, Texas to attend my aunt's wedding. It went pretty well but was stressful at times. Only who's wedding isn't stressful? I'm a bit jet-lagged from the trip and I lost a lot of sleep. I guess I can catch up on that later. I got to get my Feet pampered with a pretty pedicure and I opened the doors for the bride to walk through.
At the Reception there was a brisket dinner and a lot of country music. I felt completely out of place. (I'm a big city girl.) I did get through it though. I think the highlight was the fact that....Well let's just say I caught the...BOQUET. Gahh Yes I Know what that means. "The Next one to get hitched" As they say it. All I need is a Mr. Right. :) Well, I'm a patient person, so when it happens, it happens. For now I'm just going to life my life. Well that's it for now.
Talk to You Later.

More Fun Stuff

2008-09-26T09:50:00.000-07:00

Hey!
Well the FHE went great and so did institute. Sorry I didn't get pictures. I was too busy enjoying my time. :)
Right now I'm getting ready to go out of town for my aunt's wedding. I kind of don't want to go but its family so I might as well. Not to mention I got bribed in to it. "With what?" you say. Well lets just say some rosette stilettos. round toe satin rushed pumps, Ballet flats and 4 tops. Oh and a set of three pairs of earrings. :) Pretty good swap huh? lol Surprisingly it wasn't that expensive. The stilettos and pumps were Buy One Pair, Get the other pair for $10 at Charlotte Russe and the earrings were $6. Three of my tops were from target ( Target = Love :] ) and one was from Lane Bryant. Oh and the ballet flats were from Target as well. It was a needed Shopping trip. My clothes are getting bigger by the month! ( I'm trying to loose weight)
That's all I can think of for now. Until Next time :] \

OH... HEATHER SMITH YOU NEED TO COME TO YSA ACTIVITIES!!!!

Colleyville YSA Conference

2008-09-21T20:33:00.000-07:00

Well the weekend was really fun and the conference was amazing.
On Friday we went to a park and bounce house relays, akward dating games, and some volleyball.

On Saturday, We attended three workshops (Want to be a Millionare:Here's How, Is it the spirit or Is it me and the Dating workshop), had lunch and then I went to my friend Karen's house for a four hour spa Session. It was very relaxing.

At 7pm on saturday we ate a dinner catered by On the Border. After dinner there were different events set up, like Karaoke, Ping Pong, Fooseball, Board games, the wii and of course dancing in the gym.

On Sunday we attended a fireside and guess what it was about...Just take a wild guess... Joy and Dating. It was very informational though, I assure you. On the way to the fireside we saw the most beautiful sunset and I just had to take a picture of it.

Like I said, the conference was all good. I just got sleep deprived :)

I'm going to FHE tomorrow and I will be sure to take pictures. (even though I don't really know how to work this to make it to my liking. ) Oh well talk to you tomorrow.

Bowling with Zach - September 17th, 2008

2008-09-19T08:06:00.000-07:00

Wednesday night was really fun! A little awkward at first b/c we hadn't seen each other since 2007. Things eventually warmed up. For those of you who have no clue as to what I'm talking about, I went bowling with a guy friend of mine who is going on his mission on the 24th of this month. I will have to admit that I will miss him a lot and I'll probably be sitting next to the mail box waiting for his reply letters to come.
Any ways, when we got there at 6:30pm the cashier told us that they had a full house and that there wouldn't be an open lane until 8:30pm. (I saw open lanes) Oh well. We played pool and air hockey to pass the time. He beat me at all of it. :/ I told him I would get my "revenge" when we finally got a lane. Unfortunately, I didn't live up to it for the first three rounds, but on the fourth I beat him by 13points. :) I personally think he either let me win or his hand really was sore. He is a good guy though. I will repeat, I had a really fun time. :)
On another note, I will be going with Josh and a few other friends to the first day of the YSA Conference tonight. It's suppose to be a party in the park type of thing with dating games, Sand Volleyball and bounce house type of games.

My First Institute - September 16th 2008

2008-09-16T21:34:00.000-07:00

Well I'm considering going back. I really liked it. The class I picked to attend was called Teachings of The Latter-Day Prophets and it was very inspireing and though provoking. The teacher is incredible (and that's not influenced by the fact that she brought cookies). She gave us a challenge to memorize the Living Christ by the end of the semester and I can't wait to get started. Afterwards Josh and I chatted with some friends, watched a ping pong match and went home.
I'm really tired right now and I have to get my sleep for a bowling farewell party that I'm going to tomorrow for one of my guy friends. I'll tell you about all that tomorrow.

First Young single Adult FHE - September 15th 2008

2008-09-15T20:16:00.000-07:00

Another really awesome day! During the day I did some chores around the house and some future planning. (Like whats happening in the next few weeks)
I also went with Josh ( the one I mentioned in the previous post) to the FHE. It was pretty good. We had a lesson about light and an activity that included games from the "Who's Line is It Any Way" show. After wards we watched the first half of the Cowboy's football game and drove home.
Cowboys were not doing so great. I'm going to my first institute with Josh tomorrow and I'm so exited. Only, I don't know if I have to bring anything b/c i haven't gone to institute yet. Oh well, i guess I'll find out tomorrow. I'll be sure to write about it tomorrow.

September 12th / YSA Multi-Stake Dance

2008-09-13T00:21:00.000-07:00

Tonight was one of the best nights ever. I maybe a little to dramatic right now but it was a really good night. I got to hang out with some of my friends from YSA and I met a new guy. He is pretty handsome ( in my opinion). We have a lot in common, from our interests in music to even where our extended family lives! We got along well and the conversation was easy. We did three rounds of slow dances too. After the dance was over, we drove to a nearby Stake n' Shake with a few other friends and had a bite to eat. We plan on hanging out some more, excpecially when he invited me to go to the YSA FHE every monday. How Fun! Oh and he told me that he might come hear my sister and I sing on Sunday. How far away dose he live you ask... He lives in Wylie! but he is in the ward boundaries for Plano 5th ward. Crazy. lol
As for the rest of today, it was pretty laid back. I did a few things around the house and prepared for what might come next week.
Well I'll write again soon.

Just To Catch Up

2008-09-06T20:21:00.000-07:00

Well Lets see here. I haven't written in a while so this post is just to talk about some minor things that I'm doing right now.
On August 30th I had planned an air-soft party with some friends I havn't seen in a while. We were suppose to go over to breakanridge park and have an air-soft war with food and some other games. The only reason why I say "was" is because only one person showed up. So plans had to be rearanged. One of my guy friends from EFY 2007 was kind enough to come and even stay when he noticed that he was the only attendie. We ended up playing soccer in the back yard(he creamed me), we played the board game "Life", I fixed some taryaki chicken, pineapple and mango kabobs, Watched a movie and made our own desserts. It was pretty fun. I just have to remember that a party is not made up by the number of people in attendance, it is the quality of people.
On September 14th, I will be singing a duet with my sister in church. We are sisnging the song "I know My Redeemer Lives" but it's to a different accompaniment than the one in the hymn book. You should come listen if you can. I need all the support I can get. :] lol
On September 12th is a YSA dance and I'm really excited for that. The only thing that makes me more excited is, on the weekend of September 19th-20th, there is a YSA conference. There will be everything from a friday night activity, workshops, a service project and of course a dinner/dance.
As for the rest of my life... I'm studying to take the ACT for the second time and I still enjoy teaching the sunbeams. I mean that in all honesty too. It's not what most people make it seem to be. "Oh the dreaded Nursrey/Sunbeam Calling."
Well I'll write again when I get more news to tell. :]
