SWEDEN!!!!!!

So I was able to purchase a flight to Sweden and I am excited for this next adventure in my life. I have always wanted to go to sweden just as my siblings did before me to expirience things that I can only expirience in Sweden. As I now prepare I have to hold myself back and tell myself that it wont be perpect but it will be worth it and to trust my feeling and the quite whiperings of the Holy Ghost who is there to help and guide me. I will take tons of pictures and write everything that happens to me down so that I will never forget it. Thanks for all of those who made this dream come true!

General Conference

I had the chance to watch the first three sessions of General Conference and it was so nice and I am grateful that we have a Prophet on the earth today to lead and comfort us. I am also gratiful for the Apostles and members of the Seventy they are also examples of the lord our God and Jesus Christ. Many words were said and I hope that everyone listened with real intent to hear and follow the teaching that were taught this weekend. I am thankful that we have a church like ours that strength us and never try to make us do something that we dont want to do.

tickets...grrrrrr

I have to release this frustration or I will explode!
For the past I dont know three days I have been trying to buy a plane ticket to Sweden so I can spend my easter holidays with my familys old exchange student from there when I was real little. However every single time it says that the planes are full! Right now I am on the phone with travelocity to have them help me get a flight hopefully they are cool and can do it under $200. We´ll see.

And you are...?

So I am sitting here in the living room of my host familys home and checking the usuall things such as e-mails, Facebook, and blogs. As I read what is going on at home I wonder to myself how different is my home going to be when I return. I know there will be new buildings new people to get to know and such. But what about the people I know now. Are they the same peole I hung out with before or have they change in positive/negitive ways? Will I be the odd one out or looked over? Who knows, however when I do finally come home it will be another adventure to find myself at home.

The Best News!

The best piece of news came to me from a friend today. This particular friend was with me in the beginning of my journey in Germany. I was hotel roommates with her in Washington D.C. and in the same language class during our three week language camp. Now during the last week of Language class she had been having trouble with her hostfamily and with pondering and asking for opinions she decided to go home. Not all were very happy about her decision however she was and thats what mattered. During the first couple of months we had a small amount of contact with one another, but shocked my world when I received a email from her today. One week ago she had been baptised as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. She is now a mormon!
As I read her email a sense of graditude and awe came over me and now I know that Heavenly Father puts certain people into our lives for a reason and even if its a short or long time we should always give them our best and show them the gospel through being a example. As I finish today off with this small note I just want to say to that wonderful daughter of God how proud I am that I was able to know her. I love you miss Washington!

Sweden Trip??!!??!!?

Planning trips hasn´t always been a good talent of mind, but this trip is really important to me. I am planning a trip to Sweden for a week and I am super excited. But first I must have permission from my Exchange Program to go. Since it is not part of their program they need a release form, which I have sent in, and what dates your going to be gone. If all goes well I will spend the first week of my spring break there seeing the sights and touring. Right now all I can do is wait. Once I get the green light I am going to buy my ticket which will totally take most of my money. I am a poor student and I cant have everything. Well wish me luck!
