Oh the college life. Full of stress, late nights, tons of homework, lack of sleep, and work right?.... FALSE. I have been dealt the best hand of life and probably have the most easiest schedule known to man. Pretty much all my classes, except for one, have understanding professors that know that we are college students and we have a lot on our plates. So they don't have huge work loads which I'm use to. I'm use to studying my brains out for hours on end just to memorize ever part of the human body. Going to hours and hours of labs and open labs to understand complex concepts. All my hard work didn't necessarily reflect in my grade as much as I would have like it to... but I believe it is paying off now. I finally get a break. A break from studying nonstop. I just have my assignments and the due dates, and all I really need to do is complete them. I really hope I'm not speaking too soon and all of the sudden life turns on me and I regret bragging about my good fortune. It's just so nice to finally have time to even try to have a social life.
Rexburg has been very nice to us and participating in global warming. It has only snowed twice this winter, once being yesterday, and the snow is already melting. It's suppose to be 40 degrees later in the week. Tell me, is that crazy or is that crazy!? It's been so nice not having to wrestle with the snow every day. I love looking at snow. It is gorgeous when it is falling and everything is covered in white. But having to live in it sucks.
Today for devotional Elder Perry came to talk to us. It was AMAZING. I just love that man, he is so cute and tender. It was so inspiring to hear him talk. When he walked into the room you could just feel the presence of the spirit. You just knew that a man, called of God, was just 30 feet away. He talked with such love and understanding. He talked about how we need to have strong scaffolding's to hold our structures. He counselled us that times will be bad and we will have to know what we believe in. We need to be firm and not be moved. He challenged us to become better this year. I was so excited for today, and it really lived up to be pretty amazing.
Things always work out. That is becoming more and more of a fact each day. Just when I think I have something to complain about, I get reminded that it could be a lot worse. Life is all about how we interpret things. We choose to make a situation bad. I am working on always finding the good in things. No matter how easy it is to just give up and just complain how hard and unfair it is, take it from a new prospective and see how it can change your life.
just like this changed my life. Pure Beauty.
