Yahoo it!

Anytime I say I need to Goggle something or tell Dave to this is his response, "No Yahoo-it". I have to admit saying, "Yahoo-it" over "Goggle-it" is a little more fun. So, next time you need to search something on the internet or your telling someone else to say, "Yahoo-it" instead and enjoy the reaction and the neatness of saying, "Yahoo-it"!

At Last

Today, I heard the song "At Last". I've heard it many many times, but oh how I love it! So, I wanted to share it...well the lyrics anyway.  If by some chance you haven't heard it, look it up you will not be sorry. 

At Last, by Etta James

At last, my love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song
Oh, yeah, at last
The skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clovers
The night I looked at you
I found a dream that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to rest my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known
Oh, yeah when you smile, you smile
Oh, and then the spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
For you are mine
At last

Happy March! Spring Is Close Close Close!

                             
Spring is close close...so close I can feel it. This morning while walking to class the sky was blue, birds were singing, the cool air was not a winter cool air. It is starting to smell, look, and feel like Spring! I am so ready to be riding my bike, studying outside, not wearing my heavy coat, are just a few of things I am ready and excited for.  I found this picture on ldschurchtemples.com. I love it! Tulips and Spring  go hand and hand.  I am also excited for Spring to get here, because that means my bff will be not only a Utah County resident, but will living in Provo! I am so excited to have her be even closer. I am so grateful for her and that for the last few weeks I've had the opportunity to see her a lot more. I am super excited to have her living here in P-Town!  I am grateful for good friends who keep me laughing and listen. Masaya Ang Aking Puso :)

Love. Hope. Kindness. Beauty.

I just read an article titled, "Kindness Revolution on the Web". The article cited a few websites that are all about sharing kind words, experiences that build hope and love, and validation of self and others.

Check them out. It was awesome to read all of the different things that were shared.

An Accounting Adventure

The last four days have been spent doing accounting homework and studying for the test. The best part of all the studying has been Dave. He's been an awesome help as we've worked on assignments the last few days and well from the start of the semester. He keeps things lighthearted and encourages me. He keeps me laughing and assures me that the people in my class who talk to me like I'm a "dumb blond" when I ask a question are just lame. (And they are.) I'm grateful that my mom, Dave, and Kevin are patient with me in this accounting adventure of mine!

Awesomely Interesting Words Of Hope

Today I've heard some awesomely, interesting words.
Getting real about Mr. Right- I read an article today on newsweek.com about not settling, but being realistic in dating. So true. Settling in dating and marriage not a wise choice. Being realistic and not too picky is wise. Know what you want and what's important for you, but don't be so caught up in a "list" of things you miss real, genuine opportunities. Get real about Mr. Right. I sometimes need to remind myself I am looking for Mr. Right, not Mr. Right Now. 
Forgiveness is power- Today in my institute (religion) class we talked about forgiveness. There is power in forgiveness. That power comes through Jesus Christ. He will heal our hearts as we seek forgiveness and forgive. 
Never a failure always a lesson- Rihanna was on Ellen today. One thing they talked about was Rihanna's tattoos. Rihanna showed her latest tattoo the words, "never a failure always a lesson". As Ellen asked her what it meant to her, Rihanna explained that it meant to always learn from our mistakes and to not repeat them.
