Letters to God

hey lovelies!
I miss y'all so much! Today I grumbled about going to work because I have a name nasty head cold. But I´m glad I went because I proved to my self that I was well enough to go to a friend's party that was much needed. I love my girls! They are simply the greatest and I don't know what I would do without them.

I'd also like to speak of miracles. Read THIS BLOG POST. Also, I'd lake to recommend a movie to you. It's called Letters To God and it will make you cry. It will also inspire you as it inspired me.

That's all I have. I Love my followers! <3

Anti-Apocalypse

Quote of the day:
"I just do my work. I don't hesitate, I don't JINGLE AND BINGLE. I just do my work and get it done" -My little brother

Today was 122112 aka "the end of the world".

Well.... I'm still here!

And NO! There were no shootings or bombings during the service assembly
Today was great! We did have police officers around to protect us. All of you who missed school because of fear missed a fantastic opportunity to help the homeless. All together my school earned over $10,000 so that the homeless can have Christmas. Today was good and I'm glad to say no schools had any shootings, though my cousins school was canceled.

So here I am at the end of the world in a fort watching Tangled with my siblings. Then again, maybe I am in heaven.

End of the World

So since the world is "ending" I decided I write an "end of the world post.

#1- Okay confession. I don't believe the world is going to end, however, I do fear for the people who do believe. Even more so do I fear for the people who believe, and don't know what happens after death. That would be scary. I also do not fear to go to school tomorrow as many do. There has been many rumors about "bomb threats" and "gun threats" circling around the school, and the gym. I believe that if they are true, then the school district, and police officers will do their part to keep us safe. I also do not fear of dying if it is true, because I know that If I die it is my time to die, and that I will be going to a much better place. So there is my two cents on what I think about tomorrow, AKA December 21st, AKA the end of the world.

#2- So today I PASSED MY DRIVING TEST! YAY! Now I just need to convince my parents to let me get my license, and to buy me a car.

#3- Tomorrow is the last day before the break and I am so stoked! But I am also very angry at how terribly short the break is. Tomorrow is also the service assembly and that means short classes. Double bonus!

#4- I recently had to close a book. This book is a very popular book and was recommended to me by many of my friends. It was a horrible book, and I never would have been able to live with myself if I had continued reading. Maybe I am a "molly Mormon" but if the world ends tomorrow I don't want that on my "record". I then gave the book to my mother and she was shocked at the content as well. It is now on sale for $6 on Amazon.com.

#5- I need to do laundry really bad. And am avoiding it the best I can.



So there ya have it folks. I hope we all live through tomorrow. I also hope we don't kill Facebook while we are at it.

20~Sandy~12

Sandy

2012

A few months ago the world "sandy" would have brought on thoughts of summer, and beaches, and joy, but today the word "sandy" brings on thoughts of tragedy. Tragedy for a school, a city, a nation, and a world.

October 22nd to October 31st 2012 Hurricane Sandy took 253 total lives, and left behind $65.6 billion dollars in damage.

December 14th 2012 a gunman entered Sandy Hook and took the lives 28 people. Including 20 children between the ages of 5 and 7, 6 women that worked at the school, his mother, and himself.

These statistics are burned into the hearts of people everywhere. These two tragedies have brought many heartaches, and lots of tears. It is hard to express the sorrow felt by the nation at this point in time. These children killed had their whole lives ahead of them {read about these beautiful children HERE}, the survivors have watched the murdering of their best friends and teachers, and they haven't yet finished the first grade. This is something no person should ever have to go through, let alone a first grader.

These children, and teachers killed showed the greatest form of heroism. Many of them stepping in front of others to protect them. There have been many heroes in the efforts of Hurricane Sandy relief. People have donated both time and money to help the people affected. 

Though the majority of the world hasn't been affected directly, we have all been affected. I remember the way the nation came together after the attacks of 9-11. How people began to remember why we are all here. People began to turn to God and let him control our lives. During the years since then it has felt that people have forgotten. With these sandy tragedies we are beginning to return to God again. More prayers are being said, and we are becoming closer as a nation

In the words of JK Rowling...

"Times like these, dark times can bring people together or they can tear them apart."


We as humanity must make sure we are binding together. There is hope. Hope can be found in the most unusual of places such as a picture...

or a song.
{okay...I couldn't find the right version on YouTube, so look up Dearest Children, God Is Near You by Cherie Call on iTunes.}




We live in dark times and in the words of my friend, Hannah, "I have a feeling it is going to get worse before it gets better". I know that the 2013 theme for the youth was inspired by god. It is a call for youth every where to "Stand in holy places, and be not moved" These future days are going to be hard, even the very elect will be deceived, but we must be steadfast and immovable, we must always be abounding in good works, we must strong, we must have courage, we must not be dismayed, we must arise and shine forth, that our light will be a standard for the nations, we must stand in holy places, we must not move, for the Lord thy God is with thee withersoever though goest. (Joshua 1:9, D&C115:5, D&C 87:8, Mosiah 5:15). Our future isn't going to be easy. People all around me are suffering from hardships of all kinds. {Read THIS BLOG HERE to read about an inspiring family I know.} I pray that you turn towards God in the times of struggle, that you keep those you love close, and pray like you have never prayed before.

"Get on you                 

knees and 

        pray, 

then get on your               

       feet and go to 

work."

Flipside Family

I'd just like to say how thankful I am for the Flipside family. I love working, and tumbling at Flipside so very much. It is the greatest work environment, and the greatest place to tumble. I love my team mates and Co. Workers and we really are the best of friends. We had our work Christmas party tonight and I haven't had that much fun and laughed that hard in a while. It was great and I love you all!
