I'm gonna miss you bud. :)

My Spud-ly friend.

So i have this friend. Named Taylor Bean. He's one of my best friends i've made up here. I love him. And he's totally a Spud. One day when i was feeling down, i asked him to cheer me up. So he told me Why Idaho is better than Texas.

HERE IT GOES:

Well #1... Texas thinks that they actually could win us i a war....

#2... Not true

#3 Issaic is from there, and i could kick his butt!!

#4 I have a crush on you

#5 You lost your debit card but i think you will find it

#6 Texas is for gayS!

#7 Idaho has shot more deer than texas has

#8 You're not responding

....And then i was happy. Thanks Taylor :)!!!!!

p.s. TWO FINALS DOWN- 1 TO GO! :)

Finals. Wait, what?

SO...yeah. Finals week. But here's the thing. I feel like i should be freaking out a lot more than i actually am. 

You see, i took my first final at 1 this morning. On blackboard. But  I didn't even have to try because i have a high enough grade in the class and he drops the lowest test. COOL BEANS!! 

and tonight i am taking my Phycology of Performance final, consisting of 50 T/F questions. CHHEAAA!!

I have two more finals, unscheduled. Music 101: The Modern Era and Sociology.

To be completely honest, the Sociology one kinda freaks me out. 

Music 101 unit 5? easy peasy lemon squeasy. 

......................

Okay so heres the thing for all you taking finals out there. I have some words of wisdom: 

1) first of all: DON'T DGAF! We're in college. This isn't an all state orchestra audition. This college thing is kinda a big deal. So...

STUDY. In portions.....please don't sit there and study for 6 hours. You'll fry your brain out. try an hour...go do something...another hour....do something. 

2) Also, i have some other words of wisdom from the Big Guys: 

"The whisperings of the Spirit can calm your fears, hush the nagging worries of your life, and comfort you when you grieve."

- True to the Faith

And here's a quote someone shared with me this morning! [thanks TYG]

3) "When we put God first, all other things fall into their proper place or drop out of our lives. Our love of the Lord will govern the claims for our affection, the demands on our time, the interest we pursue, and order of our priorities."

-Ezra Taft Benson

4) and my final words: Pick a focus food. This really works for me. I know it helps me to focus when i have some classical music on. I actually can't focus without it! But when i suuuper need to focus and i'm just all FIDGETY....i get a focus food. its just something you can snack on so every time you get restless you just grab some and get back to work! Examples: cheez-its, fishy crackers, pringles, sour lucas, life savers, etc..... you know, just like whatever. I don't know, it works for me! :) but then again, i kinda stopped eating meals, so i kinda have to snack 18/7 now.

5) Sorry, i just am kinda ocd about multiples of 5 so i had to have to end on a five here. so....yeah. tip 5...have fun? pshhh who are we kidding.just, here's 5.

Well i hope my words of wisdom helped! Good luck to all of you this week! Let me know If these help? and how everything goes!! :)

I love classical music so much. 

It seriously saves my life.

That's all I have to say.

K bye.

Happy Mix

Every morning when i am kinda waking up, there is a song stuck in my head, making it impossible to go back to sleep. Why? I don't know. 

I just always wake up with a song stuck in my head! 

Today it was Everything by Michael Buble. And here's the thing. It made me so happy. This is just one of those songs thats makes me so happy when i hear it! 

I think i'm going to make a Happy mix.

 My brother Marc made one when he was around my age and he gave it to me and i listened to it when he was on his mission, but i'm pretty sure its time for me to get my own happy mix!

Any song suggestions?

p.s. referring to my past blog post about Purple Tights:

well, i got em ;)

BYU DANCE BABY

Something has changed within me:

On a more serious note: Something weird happened today.

1. first off, the facts: So, i don't know any LeBarons our of Arizona, but since i've moved to Utah, i've realized there are more of them here than i know!

2. I don't know how or even if i'm related to them.

So what happened is i was sitting there today in Mission Prep, and we were talking about how people pass from this life to the next. He talked about how we're here one day, and are gone the next. Then my professor told us about his friend Earl (i think) A. LeBaron. And how he has gotten hit by a car, and didn't survive. This hit me. No, i didn't know him, or had ever even heard of this man. But i didn't like the way he was talking about a guy who had passed away who had had the same last name as me and how he had died. I just felt sick inside and i wanted to cry. I never really heard anyone with my same name die, and i just wondered what it would really feel like if that had happened to one of my family members. I could never imagine.

Then later that day, i was in Music 259, and we were having a discussion about the future, what we want in it, what we see, and what we dream of. Then we talked about how we never know exactly what the future will hold, and how God's will is what matters.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

I think something inside me changed today. This discussion really struck a chord with me. I am so glad to have the plan of salvation in my life. And I have learned that i need to love my family and my friends with all i can because nobody knows what will happen tomorrow.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

To all my friends who read this: I love you. I am grateful that you've always been there for me and have made my life so much better and have filled it with fun and adventures. Thanks.

To all my family to reads this: I love you too, and even though it may seem like i'm a little short with you or anything, know that i love you and i am grateful for you and everything you've done for me through the bad and the good. I'm excited for eternity :)

Also,

Happy Holidays to everyone.

WHY MY LIFE IS BETTER THAN YOURS.

BECAUSE I HAVE BEST FRIENDS WHO DO THIS <----
