I don't have anything to say but someone asked me why I never post anymore. So here I am!
The past 6 months have been good.

Just kidding, ha ha. They have been, though. I've been blessed beyond belief.
Some highlights:
I got to go to Disneyland with my dad, Erik, and a woman named Katrina. It was a family reunion but we only really had lunch with my family and the rest of the time we were on our own. I love Disneyland. And the people I went with made it even more fun. It was a blast. I saw two Disney cats, ate like 6 churros, and laughed until I cried multiple times.
I got straight As last semester. That was actually pretty difficult, but not as difficult as I thought it would be at the beginning of the semester. I took a neuropsych class which was extremely technical. At the beginning of the semester I realized I was in way over my head, but I ended up getting over 100% on every single test. That is really not to my credit. I studied hard, read all of the chapters, and prayed a lot. I came to truly appreciate the knowledge I have that I have a link to God and He knows everything.
Sarah F and I cemented our friendship over the summer/last semester. She is incredible. We get along on so many levels and I am grateful to know her. She and I bought fitness passes on Groupon and tried Jazzercise, Capoeira, Zumba, and continued yoga. It is so much fun. My favorite part of working out with her is that afterwards we always eat and it is never healthy food.
I went out a lot. Too much probably, in retrospect. I have nothing more to say about that.
I became closer to a lot of people and made a lot of new friends. I am lucky for that.
My friend, Zac, got back from his mission in Kentucky!!! I was so excited. I got to see him the day he got back and he hugged me, but then also kept his distance for a long time. My cousin, Monte, also got back from his mission in SLC, he hugged me too but was pretty shaky. Bert got back, but I have yet to see him. We text, though. And Jenkin got back but that was awkward so we don't need to go into details.
I got a new calling. I was a ward missionary (which I loved with all of my heart) but now I am a Relief Society teacher. I look forward to developing my teaching skills. And hopefully becoming friends with more girls.
My mom did a bunch of work on my family history on my dad's side. I now know that a lot of them came from Chicago and I have their names! I'm so excited, that was definitely the highlight of my Christmas.
I made a lot of progress personally. I still have no idea what I am going to do with life post-graduation, but I am able to look forward to it. I know God has a plan for me, I just have to do some digging and figure that plan out.
I'm absolutely certain there are things I've forgotten, but honestly I don't think anyone reads this and if they do they're probably my friend on FB or follower on Twitter. You're up-to-date.
XOXO
