DECEMBER

Today is December 1st and that makes me happy.
I love Christmas music and I am now officially listening to it every day.
Today I turned on my Christmas Pandora Station and it played "It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas" three times in a row but each song was by a different artist. Pandora fail.
Today I also cleaned out my fridge which is always nice to do even though it's really gross most of the time.
Kelli is finally actually living with me again. She thought it was cooler to stay at the hotel with her parents. What a fool. But I love her.
Tonight I'm hanging out with Gina which I'm pretty dang excited for. We are going to Chick-fil-a!!! I love that place.
The advertising unit is done for my Comms 211 class! I am definitely glad I chose the major I chose. I have disliked the public relations and advertising units greatly.
Today I also had delicious hot chocolate and starbursts! Thank you Spencer!
I also talked to Greg today for a bit on the phone. I'm going to miss him when he goes on his mission to Japan! I love him a lot.

My thoughts on LDS General Conference: "He that will hear my voice shall be my sheep"

Six months ago I penned a blog post where I shared my thoughts on how President Russell M. Nelson, then president of the Quorum of the Twelve, exemplified the day of miracles had not ceased as he rushed from the Conference Center to the hospital to be by the side of Elder Robert D. Hales of the Quorum of the Twelve moments before he passed away. Today I return to my blog to say President Nelson proves the heavens are open and Christ continues to guide His church, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. "He that will hear my voice shall be my sheep"   "Come Follow Me" by Scott Sumner Fine Art “We have made the decision to retire ‘home teaching’ and ‘visiting teaching’ as we have known them," President Nelson said today from the Conference Center pulpit. "Instead, we will implement a newer, holier approach to caring and ministering to others. We will refer to these efforts simply as ‘ministering.’" Shortly after this announcement,...

How President Nelson Exemplified the Day of Miracles Has Not Ceased

During the Sunday Morning Session, Elder Donald L. Hallstrom, General Authority Seventy, echoed the question Moroni posed, “Has the day of miracles ceased?” He then affirmed with his words that God still performs miracles. Then, President Russell M. Nelson, president of the Quorum of the Twelve, affirmed it with his actions. As soon as the closing prayer’s “amen” was uttered, President Nelson broke tradition. Instead of waiting for President Henry B. Eyring, first counselor in the First Presidency, to come shake his hand, President Nelson met him halfway, right behind the podium (see above screenshot). He whispered something in President Eyring’s ear, and then the camera cut away. I can’t tell you exactly what happened next. But here’s what I assume. I assume the conversation between the two included President Nelson telling President Eyring that he needed to visit his quorum member, Elder Robert D. Hales.  He then left the Conference Center and headed straight...

I Have No Friends

   "No friends. No friends. I have no friends."    These are the lyrics to one of the masterpieces written by my brother, Alaric. We were in high school. He invited his friends to come over that night and every single one of them was late. Even though it led to a depressing song, I was grateful because we laughed for hours about it. In fact, Alaric and I still smile when we think of that song.     That memory always brings a dose of sunshine to the moments I feel like I have no friends (yep, I have those some times). It makes me smile when I've moved to a new place and I have no one to sit with at church. Or when I have no plans on a Friday night.     Maybe I'm just crazy but I think other people have those moments they feel friendless.     Recently though I realized my problem is I don't necessarily feel friendless — I feel like I'm not measuring up to the number of friends I should have or the number of new friend...
