Work Work Work

I have loved living in Alaska, I just received two jobs and I am now working every moment possible. I go to peoples houses and take care of them. I have only worked a week but in that week I have found that I love these people so much. I enjoy helping them with whatever they need. Most of the time they make me clean there house but again if it helps them I am very glad to do it.

There personalities are very different but they all have one thing in common. They need help. And they need company. And I fulfill that need. It is amazing to know that someone can rely on me this much and if i miss even just one day they are calling my work making sure I am ok and that nothing has happened to me. What amazing clients I have. Their lives have been filled with so much love, and so many stories. I am honored to even get to listen to them. They have wisdom way beyond my years and I am grateful for the opportunity that I have to get to know them. I thank Heavenly Father for the things I have learned here and will get to learn here.

WELCOME TO ALASKA


A part of the flight that i actually liked was landing in sidka alaska. It was awesome. As a passenger you can't see the runway until you hit it. It seriously looks like you are going to hit the water but fortunately for us we didn't :)

Hopefully I will be able to get some more pictures up of our apartment. It is so cute and my room is pretty much an attic, but i actually decorated it. I know that never happens. My bed is a futon (so comfortable) and i have a rocking chair. Brother and Sister Jensen (the people who rent out the rooms) are awesome. They treat us renters very well.

There is a bear problem here and i am not allowed to go running because they will chase you. I would rather that not happen. All in all I think that i will have a lot of fun here. It is my hope and prayer that i will be able to help a lot of people and to mostly help my dad.

Mesa Falls!




On the 4th of July my roommates and i decided to go and see Mesa Falls. It is so beautiful. We went to the upper mesa falls and the Lower oneswe also went to cave falls. They all were different but they were all beautiful. It is amazing how my testimony of my Heavenly
Father grows when seeing these places. I wonder how anyone can doubt that He is real when we have such amazing sights around us. We then got to spend the rest of the night with our amazing FHE brothers. They are hilarious and I have never felt so excepted and loved in my family away from home. They are so much fun

Totally awesome!


I am still in love with my horseback riding class. We have gone so many places and seen awesome stuff. It is amazing to be on a horse and work with your horse. My horse Tina can be extremely grumpy on days and I have learned that a apple or carrot will make her attitude so much better.
These are some findings that our teacher Brother Carter showed us. They are over ten thousand years old and yet are still so clear. I feel so lucky to have seen such sights as these. When i first
came to rexburg i decided that it was the ugliest place ever. But since then my views have changed. I have seen amazing and beautiful sights

A New Semester has Started!!!!



Wow so so much has happened. I changed my major, I have started some way awesome classes, and have some awesome new and old roommates. I have two classes that are my favorites, the first is my horseback riding class the second is my voice lesson. My horseback riding class is every thursday we get to ride to yellowstone, beaver-dick national park, and so many other places. My horses name is Tina, she is gentle hearted but knows that I am a beginner, which she totally takes advantage of.

My School Schedule goes like this
Monday and Wen 9:00-10:00 History and philosophy of education
Mon, Wed, Fri- 10:15-11:15 Womens Glee Choir
Mon, Wed- 11:30-12:30 Teachings of the Living Prophets
Mon, Wed, Fri,- 12:45-1:45 Old Testament
Mon, Fri,- 2:00-3:00 Enviornmental Stewartship
Mon, Wed, 3:15-4:15 Dance, Jazz
Mon- 4:30- Master Class
Tues 10:00- Private voice lessons
Thursday- HORSEBACK riding
It is a lot of work yet it is so worth it. My second favorite class here is my private voice lessons. My teacher just graduated with her masters degree and she is amazing. I am a bit intimidated because she is so good but I will get over it. She has already assigned me two songs one is french and the other is Italian. It is my goal to this week to go and find someone who speaks both of these languages and get the pronunciations right. Oh and I changed my major to a BA in music I will cluster in dance and culinary arts. SO EXCITED!!!!!
