So Much New That I Don't Know What to Do!

First, answer me this... Why am I blogging when I don't have my final essays done for my application to BYU?? Well, maybe because life is just so darn wonderful!
That's right folks, I'm going back to school! I'm just a teensy-weensy bit on the nervous side since I haven't been to school in 4.5 years, but I'm really excited. I love to learn and this time it's for me. I'm trying to transfer to BYU in January, thus the application (an application that was started in 2005). Can I whine for just a moment and say how much I hate essays. I better get used to it going back to school, but why do there have to be so many! The goal is to get into the MDT (Music, Dance, Theater) program and hopefully meet some people that will help me achieve my goal of putting an album out. Cross your fingers and wish me luck!
I also moved back home about a month ago. It wasn't really planned, but it has really been for the best. There were some problems at my last place and I had to get out fast and didn't have time to find a new place. This time around it's kind of nice. I feel like I'm really taking some of my relationships with my family to a new level. It's nice to have a family to do family prayer and scripture with too.
Today was great because I finally got one of my dream callings! I'm not sustained yet, so I shouldn't really talk about it yet, but I'm glad not to have a calling in the choir again. I have also been wanting to be a temple worker for over a year now. The thing that has kept me from it is that generally the rule is you can't be a temple worker for 5 years after you've been divorced. I've now been divorced for nearly a year and a half and they're trying to get me approved to be a temple worker!!!! I can't even begin to tell you how badly I want this!
So take all of this, add in teaching 16 students, nannying, and considering doing a musical and I'm in for a FULL schedule. It will be good. Busy, but good. Throw in dating and go ahead and make it a little more crazy! :)
Life is so full of experiences that bring joy and happiness. Granted, happiness is a decision, but knowing you're where you're supposed to be in life brings so much peace :) I wake up excited for each new day and what it has to offer. The song I have running through my head is, 'With a Smile and a Song'. Ignore the voice and listen to the words and have a wonderful, fabulous day!

  1. I think you're blogging instead of writing essays because you're procrastinating writing the essays! (Like you've been doing for the last 6 years) haha ;)

    I really hope everything works out for you to work in the temple That was such a wonderful experience for me when I did it and I think you would love it just as much, if not more. Keep us informed on what they decide. I think you'll get approved. :) I'm way excited for ya.
