Well I'm sorry that I am so horrible at this whole blogging thing. As predicted my Winter 2010 at Brigham Young University - Idaho went awesome! And through a lot of prayer and fasting a lot of though decisions were made (well maybe not a lot but it was BIG decision :P) and I am here in good old Lakewood, California. The sun is shinning and I am loving spending lots of time with my family!
The Lord has blessed me with TWO wonderful jobs! I got the job at Mayfair Pool back from last summer which is a HUGE blessing because not only do I love it but it pays really really well (which is definitely needed right now. And I also received a new job at a cute little cafe called Panera Bread down the street from my house. It was hard at first but I am learning to love it and the people I am working with, plus money is money right?
I am currently going to both home ward and singles ward because I received a calling in home ward as the Ward Choir Director! I'm not going to lie its pretty darn scary but we had our first "performance" two weeks ago and I thought it went pretty well if I do say so myself.
Well about that BIG decision. Over the past few months I have been praying and fasting really hard and I have come to the decision that I am going on a MISSION for the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints! My applications are already in and in a few weeks I'll be finding out where I am going to be spending the next 18 months of my life! Its going to be awesome, though I am a little nervous I know that this is what the Lord wants me to do and that means that it will all work out for the best!
Even though things are going really well and am happy to be here in my hometown I can't help but feel as though I am at home away from home. I miss my Rexburg and the people that I left behind there. Its funny how when I am there I can't wait to come back to California and then when I am finally back I wish I had never left Rexburg. I've been feeling down lately, feeling like I don't know where I belong anymore. But this weekend as I gazed out at the ocean with my family beside me and friends as close a the phone in my pocket I realized that I not only belong one place but two. I am wonderfully blessed with two places where I can go and not have to worry what people think because I know there are people there who will always love me no matter what. I have two homes.
