Friends

so when I first moved to orem I ad to start over again and with friends and everything. and go to a new ward. I was kinda scared and not sure how things were going to work out because I have never been that great at making friends and was unsure how things would work out. so the first week I got here I went to a singles ward with this girl who was like 26 and she lives a few town houses down from where I live. SO i went with her and I felt very awakward because I am only 18 and most of the peole there were like 24+ and i just felt out of place. then the next week I went to a different ward and i met a few girls and they were really nice and let me sit with them and I was really happy and felt a good vibe from everybody and then I went to a waffle party and met this realy cool girl stepheney and now we are basically best friends and I can go to her about anything and it;s great and then i met her step sister ronda who is an amazing girl and we have bolth lost our fathers and as well as stephiney lost her mom but these two girls have been so amazzing to me and have kept me going and been such good examples to me and have helped me in ways they don't know. And with moving here and meeting so many new people I finlly realized that nothing was wrong with me, because for so long I always asked myself what was wrong with me and why did'nt I have any friends in washington and in high school. I would allways hear everybody get asked " hey what are you doin this weekend" and no one would ever ask me and it hurt and so many friday nights I would sit at home and ask myself that question and wonder why I did'nt have any really good friends. then after moving here i realized that I was just fine and that they were the ones with the problem. so i guess im just grateful for how things have worked out so far.

LIFE

It's interesting how things in life never turn out the way you expect them to? it's interesting because you see your life and you plan something out the way you think things will happen and then the world stops and turns a whole 360 degrees and turns upside down and you feel like you have no control of anything. It's as if the world wants you to change your course of life and so everything that you are just getting comfortable with explodes in your face. And it all starts with one little thing that just leads to the next thing and before you know it you have to start all over again lost and confused about everything. there are so many times in life when we do not understand why things happen the way they do but as I have learned first hand experiences that have really changed me for the better and have helped me grow as a person and helped me understand that challenges come our way to help us grow as people and mature so when later on in life we will be able to deal with whatever may come our way and stay a float and keep our head above water when it feels like we are drowning and we can remember that we got through the rough waters before so you will be able to get through them again.
