busy busy busy

Hello everyone!  So today is pretty busy so it might not be as long, but really it'll be as long as it should be haha, anyway, how's everyone doing??  First of all congrats to all the black belt testers, I'm so proud of you all! You guys inspire me to keep working harder every day!  To Dakota, don't even worry about it! Drivings not all it's cracked up to be and you'll get it!  Congrats to Jess for getting an awesome job! Also good job to anyone who did anything this week that's pretty cool!

Sorry to anyone who I don't respond to this week, it's kinda crazy and I have a feeling next week will be similar, so it might be a while before I'm able to respond, but I still love you!

Umm so last night at the devotional we had a speaker talk about how we need out testimonies to be like a raging storm but under control, I thought that was cool, our testimonies must be huge powerful tools of conversion for us all to use, but we need to keep that power under control and use it to benefit the people around us, anyways, I just thought that was cool. But yeah, this week has just been chugging along, the spirit guides us more and more so it is really cool to see that in our planning and in our lessons. 

Ah but about my travel plans and such, I leave the MTC July 25 at 3:50 am, and my flight leaves SLC at about 8:30 so that's pretty neat, it's only about an hour and a half flight. I am going to be flying alone and that's pretty neat.  I just can't wait to get up to Seattle, it's kinda like when school has like 3 weeks left and you've finished all your AP tests so you're just like, what am I doing here?  But not quite because I sure have plenty of stuff to learn don't get me wrong, but it's just anticipation now we're all getting a little restless and some people in the district are getting way nervous about leaving, so it's hard to just reassure everyone in the district that it'll be ok because some people are way nervous about basically everything, but it'll all be good.

Yeah I don't really know what else to say, class is going good, I'm gaining a HUUUUUGGGEEE testimony of the Book of Mormon, it's really amazing, anyway, love you guys!  Mom if there's anything else you want to know, just let me know!
