Be Thou Humble...just a reminder for myself

This scripture was in my last few weeks of my Doctrine and Covenants class here at BYU-Idaho.

Section 112:10  Be thou humble; and the Lord thy God shall lead thee by the hand, and give thee answer to thy prayers.

Of all of the scriptures that I have read recently this is one that has the most meaning to me. I need to share it to remember the significance for myself. I forget so much what it means to be humble. I have opinions and ideas that lead me to do things. Sometimes that's great and sometimes I get carried away with my own agenda. That's great that God has blessed me with the personality and talents, but these words remind me that I really should ask for His opinions and direction a little bit more (okay a lot more). If I ever expect to have my prayers answered I need to go with the promptings I get even if they hurt my ego or plans a little bit. It will be better for me in the long run. I really do believe that He can do more with my life than I can ever hope to do alone. 

That being said...
I get frustrated that I can't always explain the things I do (but can anyone ever do that really?). I'm trying to do the right things for the right reasons. If I don't explain that well....my bad....maybe next time. 

Miranda sings....in Utah

Everyone keeps asking me how the Miranda sings show was. I knew I was going to post a blog, but life has had other priorities for me.

I finally got this blog post up. Its not fancy, but I did get some pictures and links to videos up. Now I have to get to campus to study and go to class..

 

You can't really see how cool this shirt is. But I had to get one. And, she signed it.  

 

Sorry, I had a video of this cute lil boy singing with Colleen, but it didn't turn out.  

 

Jacob was the cutest part. He brought up a lil suitcase to stand on. 

 

Then they sang a song from Frozen together. 

THEN>>>>> Miranda was finally ready to make an appearance. THIS is the video where she sings Defying Gravity to do the switch. 

 

Then she had a guest come up and they acted out how she came into this world.  

 

The nurse....i'm not sure what she was doing exactly. I cant remember. 

 

Then she sang Born This Way. 

 

She was always famous :) 

 

Then Bailey came up to sing Do You Want to Build a Snowman with Miranda. Good stuff. 

 

I think I was just taking pictures while they talked before starting to sing. 

 

Two guests came up to demonstrate what is porn dressing and what is not. So this is Miranda with her No Porn Horn. 

She also sang us these Songs that have porn words but she put her own words in.

sorry for my crazy laughing.

 

Booty = Beauty haha  

She talked about talent and how she could do magic. Then sang Think of Me while doing this lil magic trick with Colleens brother Christopher. It was good.

 

I'm not sure when she sang this song from Chicago. But the guys next to me loved it. 

 

I dont know where this fits in....and again...sorry for my voice and singing :)

But... Seasons of Love. as sung by Miranda 

 

This was so gross....she was having a chubby bunny contest with some girl that dressed up like her. Then she had the girl spit them out into her hand and she took a big bite and then was like...ewww what did you eat before this game. 

 

Jacob posed for this picture for me :) 

 

I got a hug from Miranda and then I gave her a lil gift, got a pic, then got the kids autographs too.  

 

awful pic, but thats pretty much what I was going for. 

 

So much concentration on signing his name. 

 

Bailey had also taught herself to sign her name in cursive. She is only 6. Those kids are fun. 

 

Only thing that would've made it better is if I would've had someone come with me to enjoy it. I think I'm one of the few of my friends who find her funny though.  

I took a break.

I took a break from facebook for a month. I'm sure some people didn't even notice. I'm sure some didn't care. I needed to do it. And I felt like getting back on because when you can avoid texting ten people at once and just post a status update....it actually saves some time instead of stealing it away from me.

I guess I really think that most people i talk to don't read my blog. The last time I posted was from the doctors office. A couple weeks after that I went in to get some blood work. They kinda messed up and didn't get all of the tests done that they needed to, but the ones that they did get left the doctors with some question. It was all on my hormone levels. I don't want to put up specifics, but if you care to know, I'll tell you. BUT there was one that was high and so they told me I needed to get an MRI to make sure my pituitary gland doesnt have a tumor on it.

Oh and in other news. I changed my major to University Studies with a minor in medical assisting. And did I mention that I'm taking the CMA exam sometimes between May 1st and July 30th. I changed my major so that I would only have 11 more credits to take. I was thinking only one more semester, but I still think maybe its too much stress for me to handle right now and that I might want to take a break from school. I almost think it will depend on how these test results come up. I've been way too sick this last couple of years. Or well...sick more times than I normally get in that kind of time period. I don't do stress so well.

wellllll I assume I'll know a little more by monday... till then.

and...post on my miranda show will be up soon....eventually :)

as soon as i get my computer fixed maybe....or i will post from my phone.

From the exam room

I'm just chilling at the student health center. I could be reading a book or something. I decided I'd rather be on my phone. Why not just write about what I'm doing. Just a little update on my life. Ok. I really don't think I should share my health information details on blogger.

But...in other news...one more day at my internship/externship. I'm so ready for that to be over. I'm signed up to take my certification exam may June or July. When it's closer I can pick a specific date.

I've already made plans for spring break. There are some things in life that I can plan ahead for....vacation is one of them.

My little brother gets out of prison in a couple weeks.

My sister is due to have a baby in August.

The weather in Rexburg is super cold today.

That's all the update for now.

Till next time.

#thekidsneedtoknow

Kid President is one of my favorite people to watch on YouTube. And if you know me, you know I watch quite a lot of YouTube.

I watched the video that he made about a letter to a person on their first day here. He just had a nephew born and thought he should give the kid some advice. Teaching kids how to be awesome people....good idea huh? Then he invited everyone to teach someone younger than them a few things. Soooo it got me thinking. I should blog about this. I am always around people younger than me. Let's be real, we can teach people older than us to be good people too. I was hoping I could get some help on good advice for kids, but I'll pull out a few things on my own. I'll own this blog post by myself ;)

Sooo share this video with others if you read this.

To my nieces and nephews:

• Be Kind
• Love your parents even when you don't agree (they are pretty cool people you know, but none of us are perfect)
• Spend time together
• Don't waste your money

To all my past roommates:

• Don't hold a grudge, will the small annoyances really matter in 4-5 yrs
• Service is the key, I actually learned this from you
• Ice cream isn't a therapist but probably cheaper, so lets eat that together more often :)
• Laugh and Hug often

To my current roommates:

• Clean someone else's mess ocassionally, a clean dish is a happy dish, a clean home is a happy home, and don't we really just all want to be happy??
• Talk it out. Don't assume anything. Remember the mote and beam?
• Don't forget to forgive, we won't all be around each other forever
• Choose to be happy  

PS....I'm not on facebook anymore
