Believe

{top ten}

1. Let's start things off with some hilariousness. Enjoy Latarian Milton, in all his glory.

"Because it's fun; it's fun to do bad things!" I could not agree more, Latarian.

2. This week it rained a ton. I got to experience firsthand two AWESOME thunderstorms. 

Thursday night me and Meg were sitting on our beds working on stuff, and then I thought I heard rain... We ran outside and it was a full-blown storm! So we decided to go for a run, 'twas amazing. 

Saturday I went with Ali and Desi to Mateen's football game, and halfway through there was a crazy storm. It was so windy and wet and cold, but I secretly loved it.

3. I painted my nails black. With sparkles. They look awesome.

4. I'm working on this right now. It's easy when things are going good, but a lot harder when things aren't so great. But it's always possible :)

5. Only one more week of full-time work!!

6. This week a creepy dude was spotted sitting outside watching our apartment building.... He asked one of the girls walking by if our apartment was "all single girls", and then told her to "not call the police". Then as he was walking off he said, "I sure hope you all are single, because I'm not giving up on any of you."

Creepy, right??

So we have definitely been locking our doors and being a little safer lately. 

Why do some people have to be so creepy?

7. I went to the bookstore with Meg on Saturday to get some textbooks, and I got some SUPER cute folders and a planner! I love school supplies.

8. This quote by Elder Jeffrey R. Holland: 

"God expects you to have enough faith and determination and enough trust in Him to keep moving, keep living, keep rejoicing. In fact, he expects you not simply to face the future; He expects you to embrace and shape the future-- to love it and rejoice in it and delight in your opportunities.

God is anxiously waiting for the chance to answer your prayers and fulfill your dreams, just as He always has. But He can't if you don't pray, and He can't if you don't dream. In short, He can't if you don't believe."

If we don't believe in ourselves, we can't become the person god wants us to be. Believe in yourself! Believe not only in who you are, but in who you can become. Turn your life to God and He will make it happen.

9. I just llove this picture (when you're talking about llama llove you have to use two l's).

Me and White Pride (the llama)

10. I spent a lot of time with Ali and Desi on Saturday and Sunday. It was just so nice to be with family, and I'm so grateful I have a family who loves me. We have our issues, like all families do, but underneath everything we all love each other, and that's what really matters!

This song is so cute. I love all the analogies, they make me laugh.

"I will keep on lovin' cuz I believe in love...."

Night ya'll!
