Tender Mercies

So the biggest news I need to share is.... I got a job! :) I'm working again at Call Realty. It's actually a funny thing- but it'll be good. Heavenly Father is watching out for me. Apparently I learned the lesson I needed to learn while waiting. Or maybe I shouldn't say that because I might just jinx myself... But this job will help me make some good money, and probably help me learn and grow in certain ways. I'm pretty excited about it.

Things have been fun lately. I have felt so much more at ease and at peace since I knew I had employment. I can still go to institute and everything because I am done at 6 pm. And no Saturdays. So that is AWESOME. Also, my friend Jen and I have been going to the gym almost every day for the past week. I got a sweet deal- 5 weeks for $5!! That is only the trial period, but after that I'll see if I can get some sort of deal combined with Jen. Let me tell ya- I can tell the difference already since going to the gym. :) It's great.
Also, my mom and I have been working on the ornaments we are making for the annual ornament exchange we do at my aunt's house. I'll have to put up pictures when we're done.
AND, I figured out my halloween costume for Friday. ANNNNNDDDD while I was at Good Will getting the costume stuff, I found the CUTEST Steve Madden heels. I fell in love and had to buy them. They were brand new- there was no wear on the sole or anything. So that made me excited. :)

Basically, life is good. Institute is great. I like taking a couple different classes with two different teachers. It mixes it up a bit. So I'm studying D&C as well as Old Testament.

AND. I have the best friends ever. Both here and wherever they are right now. I love keeping in contact with them. And we do keep in contact. Its awesome.

And my family rocks, too! :)

I think I just had an apostrophe

So all in all, it's been a pretty good week.

No life-changing events happened, but I have seen some tender mercies. Institute rocked again on Wednesday (and I recruited yet another person... mwahaha) and I've been able to hang out with some good friends. One of the best hangings out I did was with Marissa!! Star Wars Episode 2 over the phone. It's kind of our thing... something crazy best friends would do. :) She is in Provo right now, so that's the reason behind the phone thing. We decided that Episode 2 would be the best to make fun of. It was Awesome! :) I'm excited to see her over Christmas. It's been waaaay too long!

So I put in another application yesterday with this courier place...they're not hiring until the beginning of November, but that's alright. It's another application! I've decided to look at this impossible job hunting thing in a new light. It bums me out a lot that I still don't have a job, but I can't change the past. I just need to move forward as if I am just beginning the job hunt. And I know that I need to bend a bit with where I work. I can't be too picky. Oh, by the way, I had an interview set up for Wednesday with that place, but later that day the owner called me and cancelled it. Looks like they are having some issues right now. Figures. But I do feel bad for the guy.

OH yeah, the Chiefs rock! :)

Changes.

Or lack of, I should say. How can my life be so unchanging through such a long period of time? I'm still doing the whole job hunt thing... I gave another person my resume and I have an interview on Wednesday (if he calls me, that is. I'm going to keep my fingers crossed...). This job would be a really great one.

Institute rocks my socks every week. I think I'm going to start going on Tuesdays in the valley and then Wednesdays downtown. It's been really great to have that spiritual upliftment through the week. It helps me survive.

OH! I'm going to be an aunt! For the first time! I am ever so excited for that! :) Yay for my bro and sis-in-law! :)
