I can't believe i'm on day 5 of my challenge already (one sixth of the way through) !
But first of all... I'm having a great weekend!
It's been wonderful!
Yesterday I got to see my stake friends that I see about once a month. We met at a mutual friend's party but decided to go exploring to get some snacks and fresh air (the smoke machine was crazy!).
So we went on a little adventure to the grocery store to buy ice cream and shloer (us mormons know how to partay!) and of course we took some selfies on the way. We also saw the sun go down and had an amazing view from the park we walked through on the way back.
I adore my mormon buddies! They are the sweetest and always put a smile on my face! Plus I can give them endless hugs and pull hilarious faces in selfies. Plus they love disney nearly as much as I do (Just kidding Cumorah!)
I'm going to miss them so much when I leave for BYU!
Today was great as well! I got my first properjob! (At this super cute nearby family attractuion that i'll blog about eventually) I've been a babysitter for half a decade but i'm glad i'll now be able to earn some real dough and super save for college. I also had a great day out with my family! We went to an air force museum, filled with amazing historical planes. Plus I learned a few more facts about the cold war that i'll be able to use in my last ever german speaking exam.
I also got some super cute presents for my friends (That i'll post one they've recieved them) aaannd Frozen!! Eeek!! (Watching it right now...and singing along of course!)
But the super duper best thing about this weekend is General Conference. For all of you who are cluelessly thinking "Was ist das?" (german for "what is that?") I shall explain: In my church, the church of Jesus Christ of latter-day saints, twice a year we have the unique opportunity to listen to the leaders of our church speak during 'General Conference' in which they share with us through inspiration messages of wisdom and advice. I always think of questions I want answering, pray about them and find my answer in a message shared in General Conference. You can watch it anytime on lds.org or byutv.org. I make an endless amount of notes so I can remember more clearly what I have heard and learnt and it really helps. Plus I'll be a super note taker by next Fall!
So far there has been one general session and one women's session and there are 3 general sessions and one priesthood (men's) session to go!
(Here are some of the quotes I have enjoyed the most so far:)
Hope you are having a great weekend! I'd love to hear what you're up to so please leave a comment!
Love,
Reilly Michele
