Best Cousinmate Friend

This post is a special tribute to my best cousin/roommate/friend Emily who helped make my birthday great! I'm not even sure she reads this blog, but I'll e-mail her a link. (Hmm... Maybe that's a good way to get followers. Write a post about them, direct them to the post, hopefully they click the follow button, and then never post anything relevant to them ever again. Good plan.)

Anyway, my cousin is one of the best roommates I could ever ask for. She's always doing me favors like driving me to class when I'm late or bringing things to work that I've forgotten. One day she even brought me Junior Mints when I was feeling sad. She is great!

Well, yesterday was my birthday and she just went above and beyond this week. Someone she gathered my family, my best friends from my home ward, past roommates, friends from my previous ward, work friends, and friends from the current ward for a HUGE surprise party. The apartment was decorated and there was a lot of food and just great company. She planned this party for weeks! I was so grateful for that expression of love and I felt great. But wait, there's more.

The next day I came home and found on my desk a brand new Betta fish! (Mushu, my old fish, died a few months ago... Sad.) This new fish is gorgeous and blue! So pretty and his name is Kaito. Love him so much! Now wait.. THERE'S MORE! She also bought me a puzzle! Oh my cuss she is amazing! 1500 pieces of awesome!

So this post is just a shout out to my amazing friend. I am so grateful for everything she does for me and the great example she is to me. I love her and am so glad to live with her. She is the best.

A lot on my mind...

"God fashioned me For feeding; And set me in A hungry land." -Carol Lynn Pearson In me, God has made someone who wants to help, someone who wants to serve. When I was younger, I never wanted to be a mom and I only wanted to marry a man that would follow me where my career took me as I tried to prove myself in a man's world. Well, since then my view has changed. All I want to do with my life is work for those that I love. That sounds so perfect. Now at the moment I have no husband and no children, but I love my friends so much and I strive to be the help they need. As Pearson stated, "God fashioned me for feeding and set me in a hungry land." These friends that I love so much are hungry. They come to me with all of their problems. It seems that an exceptional amount of people find me to be an excellent confidant. My friends tell me things they've only ever told their girl/boyfriends, bishops, or parents. Or even things they've never told anyone...

Thought burst

Things I've thought about blogging, but never really got around to making them into full blog posts: 1. Guys, if you're trying to win over a girl with a missionary, it's not wise to insult her, her choice, or her missionary. Not insulting her is a no-brainer, but guys still do it. Don't insult her choice to wait and date, or wait, or whatever the details are. She already feels alone and what she wants is a friend. If you're her friend then you have a much better chance at winning her over. Insulting her missionary is no good either. This is someone she cares about enough to consider waiting two years for. He is her love. If you insult someone she cares about deeply, she won't like you. 2. Stop playing these stupid games! Games and drama just hurt people and cause unnecessary stress. If you like someone, then act like it. Don't try to distance yourself. Don't tell everyone except that person. Don't be ridiculous. Just act true to your f...
