What the Dedication of my Dedication got Me

*Piece Number Nineteen*

TODAY HAS BEEN THE BEST DAY OF MY ENTIRE LIFE!!!
  So today has been amazing! Elder Jeffery R. Holland and Dieter F. Uchtdorf came to Dixie to dedicate the Jeffery Holland Common Building and it was so amazing. Jeffery Holland gave the best talk ever he was just saying this building isn't to praise him but to remember it's for the common students who don't have much but hope in there heart. They have common life's, with common grades, common class families. A student who's common but dedicated. It was just so nice it was so spiritual. After words we all rushed to the building we ran over to the building that was being dedicated. Uchtdor was saying the prayer then after words we all said high. I got to HUG him it was amazing I asked to take a picture with him and sadly he said no because there was no time, Then I saw Holland and his wife I shook there hands and also asked if I could take a picture but sadly he also said No as well because too many people have asked and there wasn't enough time. I was feeling bummed that I had no picture but I was also feeling so over whelmed to have the opportunity to even see then to even shake there hands to even be in there presence of Apostles of my church!
    We decided we got our fair share of seeing them so we decided to go to lunch. As I was horcking down my food I saw in the corner of my eye Jeffery R holland and his wife outside in front of the building not with a huge crowd. I stopped eating jumped up and ran outside. I was soooo nervous to ask for a picture again so I made my friend Andy ask for me and guess what He said YES! It was so amazing Me at 18 years old I got to hug an apostle! What a great great great day!

One and Done

*Piece Number Eighteen*

I can't believe that I survived my first week of college and my second! It's hard but not as hard as I thought it would be! One thing I do not like is my teachers are such harsh graders! For example, I wrote this way good paragraph for my PSY homework and my teacher gave me a 7 out of 10, that's total crap because i deserved at least a 9 or 8 not a 7. But whatever it's only one assignment so I just gotta move forward and do better on the next one. Surprisingly im doing very well in finding my balance in playing hard and working hard. I seriously love Dixie so much I love everything about it actually the only thing I don't love is when it rains it rains at random times and it does not rain it pours haha! But other then that things seem to be moving pretty smooth. My roommate and I, I don't really know what to say on that subject. I invite her to everything I do and she always turns me down. She has made it clear she does not want to hand out with me and that's fine I guess. She comes I go, I come she goes and that's just how it is. But I have been truly blessed to be at Dixie and experience the college life!

Yes I said it FOAM dance. This was the Best dance Thrown by a school that I have ever been to so far! There were 2,500 PEOPLE at this dance. People come from UNR, SUU all over just for this dance. The Dj was so on point it was insane he did not play one crappy song not one! I danced for 3 hours straight. I was sooooo exhausted after this dance but every moment was worth it!
