i've decided to do some resolutions this year. and some of them involve carter, so hopefully he'll be okay with that too.. haha.

no diet coke during the week. it's killing me. ick.
read the book of mormon. because that's what we're studying in church this year.
get married in the temple. well on my way. :)
learn to cook. i don't want to starve or spend money unnecessarily anymore. although this one will be more of a big deal after february 18.
spend less time criticizing myself because of other people's accomplishments.
graduate.
get a job. full time.
enjoy the remaining time i have being 'single' (not married) [47 dayyyys!!!] and enjoy MORE the benefits of being a wife.


i think these aren't too tough, right?
i'm going to get a chalkboard at my house (i love chalkboards!) and write all of these on them and put them in the kitchen so i see them every day.

So many missionaries!

Yet another of my best friends has been set apart as a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints! And I am bursting with pride! Elder Adrian Jones is joining the ranks. Read his blog. He's such a kindred spirit. :) Also, Elder Ethan Palmer is doing a great job in the Phils thus far. And Elder David Paxman (no blog. What a brat.) will be home in a matter of mere months! How incredible! I have been so blessed to have such amazing guy friends to look up to. I love all 3 of these guys (& Marshall & Dahlin, of course and naturally. Plus, we're not even talking about Carter right now..) and I wish that all of them could be here for my wedding; alas, they will be where they're supposed to be. They'll be here in spirit!

SIDENOTE:
I only have 4 exams left! Woo hoo!

no internet. :(

dang, i miss blogging.

well, i just moved. and my house currently has no internet. which means no blogging. because the only times i have internet are at school, where blogging is frowned upon, and when i babysit, which is when i use the internet to study. booo. but i'll spend christmas break catching up!!

[ps. 73 days till i get married to my best friend!]
[[pps. 7 days of school left.....]]
