The boat in the storm

It's weird how one little day can change things. One little moment and your world has been turned upside down. One moment you feel like your drowning and the next someone has grabbed your hand and pulling you back into the boat. The safe haven in the middle of a raging storm. My safe haven is out there. I just have to look. Sometimes I feel like my light house is out of whack. I have to remember that it isn't though. I just need to look harder. It's there.
It's amazing how much my life has changed in the past month. How many friends I have made and to finally decide I know what I want in my life. Now I just have to remember how to organize it all. Where to put my priorities. I've had a whole summer to forget. But no worries, I will get it figured out, because I have had many discussions over the last with with Heavenly Father. And though I don't agree with everything, I know He is always right. I just have to remember that, hard as it may be at times.
Remembering. That is all it comes down to. Remembering that I am loved. Remembering how to organize my life. Remembering that even though there are hard times, everything will work out in the end, even if it wasn't the way I thought I wanted it to work out. Lots of times I forget but that's when those little nudges come that say "Remember" and it's all I need. Silly as it all might seem, it's true.

30 hours of work + 16 credits = Tired Molly!!!

Yup! That's correct! I worked 30 stinkin hours this week! And holy cow am I tired! They messed up my availability hours with someone else's and so I worked a lot more hours than I should have. Its nice for the money but its not nice for the studying or my sanity! Don't get me wrong though! I really really like my job though! I have made some good friends and we have lots of fun! We have a work party today and I'm really excited cause I just get to go and hang out with all the cool people that I work with. Plus, free food! What college student would turn that down?!? Only a crazy one! Plus, there's a lovely boy that I'm keeping an eye on and he informed me that he would be present at this little shin dig. So why the heck would I not go?!? I made Red velvet cupcakes for it cause we were supposed to bring dessert or a salad. I only make little salads cause I'm the only one who eats them, deserts I can share with people and so it was a dessert that came to pass :) AHHH! I love school and I love work! I'm super busy but I would tons rather have that over last year of laziness any day!

Round Two

Hmmm... Wow. Well that last post was forever ago! So long ago that here I am again at school after the summer off. That means I'm a sophomore! Look at me! Sadly, since I did play a lot last year and therefore I killed myself school wise. Oh dear. So now I'm a bit behind on the nursing front. It didn't help that I started having second thoughts last year and I just felt that it was too hard. I take it back though! I'm being a nurse gosh dang it! That is what I have always wanted to do and so that's what I'm going to do! I'm thinking about having a minor in sign language because it will set me apart from other nurses being considered for any of the jobs I apply for. I just really hope that when I graduate I will be able to work here in Utah! I just love it here and I really don't want to ever leave for a long time!
This summer was quite crazy. The first month I went back and forth from Logan to Idaho Falls because well, to put it in a nicer way, I was being a brat. I did NOT want to go home and I was being really stupid. I did end up back home and it was a bit rough for a while but my family was amazing and dealt with me until the end. Thank you family. I wasn't a nice person for a while. Thank you for loving me anyways! I went back to Jimmy John's got a raise and worked about 40 hours a week. It was rough but I made it!
I got a job at Maceys as a bagger for this year and so far I really like it. It's pretty tough working and doing school at the same time but I fell like it is tons better to do that for me instead of not having a job and being lazy like I did last year! I am making new friends there and I'm making money that I really need! So pretty much all the way around its nice! I really can't wait to see how this year pans out but I really do think that it is going to be a great year and though I shall be super busy, I think that I will be able to study hard, work hard, and play hard!
I really hope that I will be better about writing on this thing this year!
