Welcome to my world!

No race can prosper till it learns that there is as much dignity in tilling a field as in writing a poem.

So I think I'm obsessed with...


JOSH GROBAN!
YEP! I really think I am and not because he is cute, yeah I have to accept he is kind of attactive ;) but because of his amazing and beautiful voice. I have always known he is very talented and that he has this powerful  voice but lately I've been listening to his songs and I'm just IN LOVE with his voice! I can't help it! 



Well changing the subject :) Tomorrow is church day :) Yay! Tomorrow will be the second time that I give a class to the girls and I love it, I just read the class and it is wonderful the things you can learn from the scriptures and the manuals :) 

FELIZ DOMINGO!

I'm a terrible blogger!



Hello everyone! Well as you can see, it's been a while...
Life is just crazy sometimes and just like my title says, "I'm a terrible blogger" because I never have time to blog. Sometimes I look at my other friends' blogs and I wish my blog could be as entertaining as theirs, but oh well :) I guess it's okay.
Well I wanted to share that I am very happy because I have two amazing callings at church. I am a Seminary Teacher :) and they just called me to work with the Young Women as a 1st counselor.
I really like being a seminary teacher, of course like everything it has its advantages and disadvantages
The advantages:
-I am learning so much from the scriptures.
-I never thought I was gonna enjoy learning from the Old Testament.
-I am learning to be patient :)
-I am actually reading my scriptures everyday :)
-I feel like this is a great preparation for my mission so this is just a great blessing :)
Disadvantages:
-I have to get up at 5:00 a.m. everyday :( 
-You know dealing with teenagers is not that easy haha but hey I'm not complaining! I'm thankful for this! 
Just a few disadvantages...I can't complain too much when I have such a great blessing in my life :)


So, like I said they just called me to work with the YW and I am excited! There is a lot of work to do too, but the YW program is way fun so I can't complain either and I am also learning a lot. I know that I learned way too much as a young woman but now that I'm a leader I am learning more and I'm thankful that I have the opportunity to grow spiritually and of course I am thankful that I can be an instrument in the hands of the Lord to help HIS daughters :)


Well, I also want to say that in order to go on a mission I only need to wait 7 more months! So yeah, I'm really excited :) 


Another thing that I want to say is that I went back to school :) Finally! haha. Well it is not college but it is an adult school and you can graduate from short careers, like me, I am studying to become an office technician and in like 2 more months I'll be able to finish that and apply for a job :) and I hope I can get one because I still don't have a job and that really sucks :( (that is actually the only bad new of the month) Buenas Noches ;)


bye!

Yay!

"It's better to have loved and lost then to never have loved at all"

"Sometimes we loose things we care about to be reminded of what we need to focus on"

My two favorite quotes of the day!


True, true, true!

Dont' know what's going on!

Hello everyone! I don't really know how to start this blog, there are so many things I want to say but I want to think of how to say them because I really don't want to make my private life public. Anyways, I want to start saying that life is full of surprises, great things happen when you least expect them, and at the end you end up where you never thought you would and that doesn't mean that, that certain place is bad, it is just that you never thought about it but it is good still. 
Well, right now my life it's kind of boring and I hate to say it but it is. I don't have job, I'm not studying, I'm just at home cleaning and that's it. I haven't had a lot of success on finding a job (I guess for some reason I haven't put a lot of effort on finding one) Am I depressed? I hope not. The truth is that I need to change all of these. I want to be happy! Really happy! And I know that happiness doesn't come when you get the things you want but when you learn to love and value the things you have. Happiness is when you learn to love all people around you and when you serve others. And that's what I want now! I want to stop thinking about me (I mean at some level because of course I have to work for my goals) but I want to be able to help others more, that way I will stop thinking about my drama which is not helping me at all.

Life...



Hello everyone! Well today I decided to write in my blog since I haven't done it in a while. I know I'm not a really good blogger...I should be better haha but sadly I just don't have time sometimes. Anyways! Today I am very thoughtful (Well to be honest, I can be a very thoughtful person) I think so much about my life. I think of the things I have and on the things that I don't have, but I want to get better at recognizing the wonderful blessings that I have in my life because If I think of the things that I wish I could have but I don't, we are just gonna get depressed here, and no! That's not the point!


Today was a great day, and you know why? Because I worked! It is a wonderful blessing to have a job, even if it's one that you don't really like too much, but THAT doesn't matter too much because how many people are out there begging for a job? and at least I have one :)


I am so thankful I have my mom by my side, I try my best to be an independent person, but seriously my mom helps me too much and I don't know what would I do in life without her. Moms are amazing! :)


I am so thankful I have the gospel in my life! I would never get tired of saying it! I don't know how my life would be like without the gospel of Jesus Christ....I am sooo blessed!! Knowing that there is Someone up there loving you just the way you are, hoping that you will be better but loving you with pure love still, knowing that there is an AMAZING BEING taking care of you and telling you: Don't give up because I am with you and I won't live you alone!


I am blessed because I have a place where I can always stay with my family, a calm place :) I mean a place where I feel good and safe because If we are talking about my house being calm I would be lying haha during the day my house is most of the time full of people and we can be kind of loud....We are Mexicans, what can I say? haha :) 


Well, I'm gonna hit the road. First, because I don't want you (the reader) to get bored! 
Second, I have to go to bed and rest because tomorrow I have to work too.
and Third, because my mom is going to kill me if I stay late using the computer :) haha you know! Mothers!!!! :) 




Well before I go, I want to share a video that I love it has nothing to do with my subject but I love it!




I am still obsessed with the guys from "Il Volo" I can't believe they are so young and they have such incredible voices!! :) Well hope you guys like it! Bye! :)

Time in my life!

Sometimes I am very thoughtful about the time in my life. All the people who know me know that I want to serve a full-time mission for The Church of JESUS CHRIST of Latter-day Saints. I always talk about it because that's something that I would love to do. So I had a job, I was already saving money for my mission, but now that I don't have a job, I just feel like the time stopped for me, even though time never stops but I just feel like it did. I was so thrilled about turning 20 years old last month because I was thinking: I only need one more year for my mission! I can't believe that before I was counting the years and now I am counting the months...but since I don't have a job anymore and I'm not studying either (for now) I feel like the time is going so slow! Agh! But I also know that it shouldn't be that way because I also want to enjoy every single day of my life...it seems like just yesterday I was 15 years old and now I am 20!!! I feel old haha even though I'm not. And I think that I have to enjoy this last year that I have with my family and friends before going on a mission, because maybe when I least expect it I'll be already 21 and probably when I get there I'll say that I wish I could go back to enjoy every moment and I don't want that to happen so I need to figure out how to enjoy every day. I guess I'll I need to do is not to think so much about the future, I just need to live day by day, of course I'll always have my goals in mind and work on them but without ignoring what I'm living at the moment. 


I just thought that was a cool clock, don't you think? And it relates to my subject so yeah :)


Anyways, changing the subject a little bit, I am looking for a job, I'm not sure yet but probably I'll work as a "nanny" soon. I still need to go to an interview. I hope I can get the job, I love kids...and...I need a job! :)


Well, time to go.

Hello everyone!! Well...everything's has been alright! Not so much had happened in my life, just a few things. I lost my job like 2 weeks ago, so now I am looking for a new one. I am really sad I lost my job because I loved it, I don't know If I ever mentioned that I was working with the elderly and I loved it! I really like helping others and get paid by doing that it is just great haha :) Anyways. I really want to find another job because I want to continue saving money for my mission. Did I ever mention how much I would love to serve a full-time mission? Well, If you didn't know. That is one of my biggest dreams ever! I know that the Lord loves everyone of His children, I know that my Redeemer Jesus Christ lives and through the Prophet Joseph Smith, He restored his gospel, I also know that the gospel blesses people's lives, I know this with all of my heart, so why not to share that with the world? Plus I would be serving the Lord by serving others :). But to be able to do that, I need to save money, of course. So that's why I need to find a job and keep saving money. I really hope I'll find one soon, I just hope it's a job like the one I had before...it is amazing when you find a job where they pay good, treat you right, and you love what you do, but let's see what happens :)


Well, I also want to talk about today. Today was a great day but it was a sad day too. Two of my favorites missionaries who served in my ward just left. Elder Houghton and Elder Batschi. Both of them are amazing! And of course, my family and I will miss them A LOT! 
The reason why my day was great is because today Elder Houghton's family and Elder Batschi's family came over to my house. It was so great to have them over. They are very nice people and I am so glad I had the opportunity to meet such amazing people! So I would like to share some of the pictures we took today.


I really like this picture because all of us were together. 3 families in a picture haha! I just don't get tired of saying how nice they are...every single one of them! 


This is Elder Batschi's family. They are from Washington! They were very nice and kind all the time!


And...this is Elder Houghton's family!! Very nice people too, so kind and humble!! I will miss them a lot!! :) and they are from Texas!


Tiffany Houghton. Elder Houghton's sister! She is so pretty and nice. I am glad I got to meet her! :)


And of course, a picture with coolest missionaries ever! I will miss you guys!!
