efy!

One of my favorite memories as a teenager was being able to attend EFY, i felt the spirit more at efy than any other time in my life so far. I made friends that changed my life and that are still my friends to this day. I had session directors who taught me how to be a better person and teachers who helped teach me about the gospel. i learned that good wholesome fun was not only possible but that i enjoyed it as well. Most of all i had counselors who i love dearly and whom i looked up to. i remember wanting to be just like my counselors, and guess what....I AM NOW AN EFY COUNSELOR!! i am so EXCITED and so NERVOUS for this amazing opportunity that has been given to me. i am looking forward to seven weeks of getting to share my testimony and grow and learn for amazing people! i never thought i would be lucky enough to be able to attend efy for seven weeks in one summer but now i get the chance of a lifetime and i could not be more grateful. so while the rest of you are swimming, vacationing, and selling(haha!) all summer long i will get to be spending time with amazing youth playing fun games, dancing, and most importantly coming closer to Christ!

Ditching Real Life!

I have failed at blogging again...:( one day i will get the hang of this and become and amazing blogger. So today i am taking what my dear friend Amy calls a "MENTAL HEALTH DAY" i just decided to take the day off work and get some things done and first one my list (after spending the last hour of my morning reading other peoples blogs) is to update my own blog. Here is the rest of my day...i will be producative even though i am skipping work.
1. Take my trunk to get fixed(it has continued to break since i bought my car, one of the disadvantages of buying a car that costs about the same as a semesters tuition. however, if the trunk is the only thing breaking i am ok with it.)
2.go to the chiropractor(it wil be my first time and my back sure does need it, i think, so i am looking forward to it)
3.get my etraining done for EFY and finish my preparing my last couple devotionals(only one more week until i start!!!!)
4.go to the gym???(i am still debating i don't really want to but i probably should)
5.LEARN TO MAKE HOMEMADE BREAD(today is the day i am going to teach myself to make homemade bread!, it is somehting i have always wanted to accomplish and today i will do it!)
so this is how a ditch real life by doing things i am too lazy to do after i spend 61/2 hours with my beautiful students!
