I can't believe it!!!!!

So I'm sitting in my room and just got back from class, I am sitting here in awe, I was talking to my mom and she asked me where I'm going to go to school after next year and I told her Weber State! Now Thats a year from now. What?! That's crazy! I mean that too! It feels like just yesterday I was moving into my apartment and new to being on my own and calling my mom 4-5 times a day. Now we talk maybe 2-3 times a week and I'll be moving back home in only 3 weeks! I can't believe everything has happened the last 8 Months- Just a little record of events--

• Moved away from home.
• Completing 1 year of College.
• Got a job for the summer.
• Got a visit from Courtney and Jason in December
• Courtney and Jason got married.
• I am referred to as a Success story from the school.
• My sister made and played on the High School B-Ball Team.
• Got to make some amazing friends!
• Get to go to the Manti Temple for the first time in 2 weeks. 
• Got to go to General Conference
• Made amends with myself.
• Improved my Psychological State by like 75%! 

Now that is a lot but at the same time not a lot. Great things have happened and it's only fair to truly focus on those amazing things! Planningly, those all are good and will or have happened :) Life is such a blessing! 

A Quote I heard that has truly helped me I stole from my sister goes like this-

"Stop telling God how big your storm is and start telling your storm how big your God is."

I love that quote, because its true! I have definitely made my storm run in fear thanks to my Father in Heaven and all the blessings he has helped me with! If you haven't heard the song "This" By Darius Rucker, listen to it!! Because That's how I feel right now, still have so much to happen, but where i'm at now, well I'm glad, because anything could have changed everything, but I am so lucky. Because I have the best family, the best friends, the best life in the world- despite the challenges I face. I'm happy, and So Thank God for all I missed, because it led me here to this :)
