oh the fun that is my life...

have I mentioned recently that I totally and completely love my life? Well....I do. I couldn't ask for a better life right now. Well, I could ask that my hamstrings not be as sore, but alas, I'll just keep stretching. :D

So... I promised details, and details I give you. So I went country dancing last night with CW. It was a blast. I had so much fun, and he's really good. Which makes me happy. I could follow him, no problem-o, and we had a lot of fun talking and what not. At the door, things weren't awkward at all, he gave me a GREAT hug, and told me that he had a lot of fun, which I did too. I think I will ask him to go to Dance in Concert with me this weekend, if I can get up the nerve. :S ciao.

country

once upon a time i went country dancing every week at BYU for the country dance club...then school started, i got busy, and stopped going.

well....there are some new peoples in the ward, and one of them is this really cute boy. he needs a name...so we'll call him CW. Well, CW and I have been messaging back and forth on Facebook, and lo and behold he likes country dancing. in fact, he goes often. so guess what? he asked me to go with him tonight! (on saturday) so I have a date tonight, and I'm very excited. ALSO, we have been doing some flirting and what not, and he's very nice, and a lot of fun to talk to. an update will come later after dancing. ;) ciao.

so this is 2007...

well, it's here. 2007. it's been here for 15 days now. and soooo much has happened it's kind of crazy, if you ask me. what? you are? and you want details? alrighty then...here they come. ;)

the rest of my break was wonderful. i loved it. absolutely loved it. the book project got put aside because the main office got so ridculously busy, but i had no complaints. ;)

school started, and besides the fact that i have a 7 am class this semester, my schedule is perfect. i love it. i have good feelings about this semester and i know that it's going to be a blast. :D

during the first week of school a plethora of things happened. first, we went on lec dems on wednesday to many different elementary schools. which was a lot of fun, but oh my gosh it was so pickin' tiring! i almost died of hunger because we didn't have time for lunch, my feet hurt, and i was gone from my apt. for 12 straight hours. it was crazy. but oh so much fun.

second of all, my grandma went into the hospital on tuesday b/c she was having trouble breathing. then her pulse skyrocketed and she was put into intensive care, then she was put back into normal care, and now she is in long-term care. so she's doing lots better. rehearsal for me was cancelled on saturday so i came home for the weekend. i went and visited her in the hospital, which was kind of crazy because i have never visited someone that I know personally. It was weird. she looked so old, frail, and tiny in that bed. but like i said, she's doing lots better.

so all in all my weekend has been relaxing. good things are going to happen in 2007, i can feel it. ;) ciao!

the new year

huh. welcome 2007. wow. i can't believe it is 2007. who would've thunk?? it's been a long time for many things. so many things are going to happen this year, i can just feel it. i know this next semester is going to be a blast, not only because i have the best schedule ever, but because its the last 'semester' that i have to go through with out a certain Bob friend that i want to come home. *insert super big happy alishka face here. :D*
there's also the known fact that i will have a ton of change happen upon me, including: probably (like 90% sure) moving home for the first time ever since 2004, moving to a new place in fall...no more current place of living for me! i will also start my 4th year at college (woah...i'm so OLD), i will see many friends come home from their 2-year hiatus.
what else shall i do? well so much that i can't think of it right now.
and looking back, the year 2006 was a year of growth for me. but then i guess each year is a year of growth, but 2006 was much much more.
how you might ask?
well...i learned...
  • how to forget myself and become a different person on stage
  • how to let the Lord help me and do his will...even when i am scared stiff to do it.
  • that life doesn't always go as we plan
  • that if we forget our plan, the Lord's plan shines through and life gets super happy
  • that dating is not always easy, but everything always works out for the best
  • that having a boyfriend is fun, but not flirting is of the devil.
  • that i have so much more to learn
  • how to take care of myself better...and want to keep doing that for the rest of my life.
all in all i learned so much about me in the emotional and spiritual sense it was amazing. i feel really good about this next year and that happiness will be in such abundance that i might not know what to do with it all...guess that's something i should learn this year. :) ciao.
