Time Flies When .... The Summer Approaches??

Isn't it crazy that it's almost the end of the school year? It seems like it was just a week ago that I was school clothes shopping with the buds, and now I'm turning in text books. This year has definitely been one of the best school years ever. It's been stuffed with all the high school goodies: stomps, football games, School plays, dating (finally), NHS, lots of violin festivals, and of course all the wicked parties me and my friends threw. I've loved writing for the paper, and just being a part of "The Lion's Den." Aside from school, YW has been only fabulous! I seriously live in the best ward ever. I love all my girls and the fun times we have. To top this fabulous year off, there was HOBY :) Great memories, and so much to learn.
Every year seems to go by faster than the last, and I can't help but wonder what the future has in store. I've bounced back and forth between career options a while, and to be quite honest, I'm not sure what I'm gonna do yet. I suppose that's okay considering I'm a sophomore, but you know me, I've gotta have a plan for everything. Haha. Anyways, I digress. . .

Planning for girls camp has been oh so much fun. This year I'm a YCL, and I'm super excited. The stake leader over the YCL's is so friendly and upbeat, she is really going to help us make this a great year for all! We have a bunch of fun activities planned, and my certification group has some great ideas for teaching certification this year. We all agreed that we absolutely LOATHED certification when we were 1st years (who we're teaching) and so we have made plans to spice things up this year. Ya know, candy, reenactments of ridiculous case studies, etc. Yup. It's gonna be legit.
Prior to girls camp, I'm going to EFY for my third year. WAHOO! I love that place. Nothin's better than making new friends and strengthening your testimony. Ever since I got back from HOBY I've just been so excited to go and continue to meet new people and learn new ways to really contribute something positive to the world. Seriously, what would the world be like without all of these OUTSTANDING youth programs??

Now that I've managed ramble about nothing once again, I best get going. Over and out!


P.S. Girls nights are a gift from above.

Before I jet, here's a few pics:

Okay, you are so talented! You write beautifully, play the violin, take amazing pictures and who knows what else. I'm so glad you had a great sophomore year. Career choices are hard and it is okay if you don't know what you want to do. I still don't know what I want to do with my life. Anyways, I love your blog the end.
