You Have Got to Be Joking!

So today I decided that instead of driving down to Provo for church I would just go with Rachel to her singles ward up here in American Fork! Oh I am so happy I did because I am now so happy and thankful for my singles ward! First off it just didn't feel the same and then it happened! The second speaker was supposed to speak about President Monson's talk from April Conference! Instead she got up and said that she didn't have anything to add and that we should all go home and read it! Then the whopper of the day, she stated that when asked to speak she said NO because (and I quote) "I am only going to be in this ward for 2 more weeks and well I don't see the point in you getting to know me or me getting to know you and honestly I have never felt comfortable in this ward!!! I always felt like it was a popularity contest and fashion show each week, so I encourage you to read the talk!" Yep then she shared her testimony and sat down grabed her scriptures and got up and walked out! It was Awarkward! I was just happy I wasn't in the ward, because they were all pretty upset by the thing! So yes I am so happy that I get to go back to my ward next sunday! Don't know if I could handle more than One week in that ward!

It's Been To Long

It has been way too long since my last post! There is so much that has happened and life has been moving fast! I know I will miss a lot of things but I wanted to try and recap the last few weeks!
1. I am beginning to love my job. I have made friends, and am starting to get more comfortable. I even actually like answering the phone now!
2. I am now working at the front counter of the courthouse, it is SCARY but fun. I haven't had anyone arrested yet, but there has been a few close calls and people around me have!
3. I am moved out of my apartment, and I now remember why it has been so long since I last moved, I hate it! I am living with some family friends in Alpine for a few weeks and then should be moving back down to Provo!
4. Romina left for Boston last night and I am going to miss her so much! It was kinda dusty last night, but I know I will see her soon!
5. I had new employee orientation in SLC and omg I could have kicked one of the girls in the class, she was obnoxious, rude, and told me I had ADD! Heck she may be right!
6. I miss hanging out with my friends, I am going through withdrawls and miss being able to knock on Jun, Rahsae, and Emily's door! Oh good times!
7. I know there are so many other things, but I am hacked into Marissa's account at the UVSC Library and really need to run and make copies of tomorrows program for church and drop it off because I am not sure I am going to the ward tomorrow! We shall see!

Week 2 I've Made It This Far

I am already about half way through week 2 of working at the court house and I can honestly say I am suprised I have made it this far! I was ready to give up last Tuesday but after a lot of encouragement from my family and friends I am still pushing ahead. I don't give up that easily and it is going to take a lot for me to throw in the towel. I have learned a ton and am beginning to make friends at work. Now if I could just get over my fear of answering the phones, I don't want to get yelled at, swore at, and the thought of telling a person there is a warrant out for their arrest freaks me out! Heck maybe I will have to do what I did in the MTC Referral Center and act like I am taking calls! Ha ha Yeah I think That is the solution! Don't be suprised if You get a call from the Court house It is just me "Making and Answering Calls" ;)
