Obviously I've got nothing on Carly and Kristen right now, the
Freshmen 15 just doesn't quite stretch the same way as when your insides are stuffed with various fruits and vegetables on a weekly basis, but I will do my best to fit that extra burrito with creamery ice cream on the side.
I'm totally joking by the way, I am NOT getting fat up here, I promise!
All joking aside, I wanted to share a little bit with you all, sorry I don't post more pictures!
So last week was incredible! I got to hear from and be in the presence of President Thomas S. Monson, Elder Jeffrey R. Holland, Elder Henry B. Eyring, Elder Deter F. Uctdorf, Elder Dallin H. Oaks, Elder Russel M. Nelson, Elder Richard G. Scott, and Elder D. Todd Christopherson. I mean come on! What a spiritually impacted week, at least for me, of complete and wonderful amazingness.
I just wanted to share that because it was kind of the highlight of my week last week, Tuesday and most especially Saturday.
And now, I post pictures--concept!
So me with, get this FRIENDS, at the BYU game last Thursday.
GO COUGS!!
Then me, with get this again in case you missed it above, FRIENDS--cause I have those you know-- hiking to the top of the Y on Saturday.
So this past week was a lot better than week 1, just the whole influx of more people on campus was a real curveball for me, but I'm all settled in and good now. However last week was a huge learning experience for me regarding friend/relationships. They take, wait for it... WORK. Friends don't just appear by your side and you instantly get along, you have to work to have and keep having friends. Then living with someone isn't always peaches and cream, let me tell you--and I know that you all already know that, but I'm just learning this! It takes work, service, kindness, perseverance, and patience. So a big week for me and it's just going to continue. Thank goodness for you guys though, you make everything easier.
Love you all, hugs and kisses from your little sis
