Life


So life has been very interesting lately. My job has had its ups and downs. I am learning from the downs of my job though. I am learning that we all have different ways that we want things done. I am learning also to learn from those who have had more experience in things like gardening than I have had in my life. It definitely takes time and patience.
I am working on how to communicate better or ways that I can. It is a neat and difficult experience. I am also wanting to understand why people are the way that they are.
I went home this last week and it was a lot of fun. I had a lot of fun hanging out with my nieces and nephews, sisters, brother in laws, and my parents. It is definitely noisy when I am around when all of those that live in Vernal of my family are in the same house. It is something that I am getting used too.
I have been having fun taking pictures of nature. I just love observing and finding things to take pictures of. I was at Wal-mart the other day and I saw what looked like a humming bird, but I wasn't sure if it was a humming bird or if it was a moth. It was really awesome!!!
Well until next time.

On to more adventures

I moved into my new apartment this past Wednesday. It has been a lot of fun organizing everything of mine and talking with Jeannio as to where to put shared stuff. It is fun there are several people from my ward during the school year that live in Anderson apartments also.
As some people have read I have a boyfriend named Nathan Johns. He is a history major, he likes to dance, cook, and many other things. One thing that he likes to cook is Indian food. He made some really good sweet and sour carrots last week. He constantly loves to tease me and I do my best to tease him back. I have to realize he is teasing a lot. I am getting used to it. We have lots of fun together. We are often laughing a lot.
School went pretty good this last semester. I have to figure out more with how to best be able to teach about plants and animals. I really enjoy nature and it would such a joy to be able to teach others. I am so excited for next school year because one of my classes that I am taking is symphonic band. I so enjoy playing in a group and combining sound to make beautiful music. Well hope everyone is well. Have a wonderful day.

Words of Wisdom

The effect of our words and acts is tremendous in this world. Every moment of life you are changing to a degree the lives of the whole world. … So, it’s not the surroundings, it isn’t the positions; the thing that will influence [others] in this world, are personalities. No matter what you are people will feel and recognize this. You radiate, you can’t hide it. You may pretend something else, but that will not affect people.
