Friends, hot chocolate, and the temple :)

So, last night my roommate said something that really offended me. I was really upset about the fact that she would say something like she did and was pretty much ready to curl up in a ball on my bed and mope for the rest of the night. But instead I decided I needed to get out of the house. I finished up the dishes (from 2 days, that didn't help my mood) and left the apartment without another word. I didn't really know where I was going. I hadn't decided if I wanted to talk to someone or just walk alone. I finally decided to go see Jared (one of my good friends here in Rexburg) I texted him to make sure he was home and then we went to the park! We sat on the swing for a little while and didn't really say much, then a girl I knew walked past and we talked for a few minutes, and by that point my butt hurt from the swings and it was cold, so Jared and I started walking again. I still hadn't figured out what I wanted to say and it probably took another 5 minutes before I was finally able to talk about why I was so upset. Anyway so we started talking about it and then went and got some hot chocolate and decided to go to the temple grounds to help me calm down a little bit more :) It was very nice! I'm grateful he took the time to calm down and make me feel better. I'm so grateful to have people to go talk to when I get upset. I'm also grateful for the spirit that can be felt in the presence of the temple! It's such a blessing to live so close to one! Anyway, since it's been forever since I've posted on here I decided I would share how grateful I am for friends, they are so wonderful :)

Power of prayer

All my life revolves around is: Psychology, Counseling, Topics in music, algebra and composition english. But, I did have something exciting happen today! I had psychology midterm (which I think I did OK on, but nothing too spectacular) and so I studied my butt off for that instead of Topics in Music test. Anyway, I took a test in my Topics In Music class on Thursday and was for sure that I was going to bomb it because I studied for maybe maybe Five minutes...if that. I somehow pulled a B out of it. =] Awww- the power of prayer
