Australian Pink Floyd

Emily and I went to Pink Floyd concert with some of our Co- Workers, and lets be honest, we were not expecting too much out of it.
It was FREEZING, and well...it was FREEZING. haha
 However, we bundled up, and ending up having a BLAST!!!
It got to the point that we were laughing so hard..I dont even know why.
(second hand high people)
 The aussie's were amazing. It was like Pink Floyd arose from their graves, and played for us.
The second half of the concert was 3D! What gets better than that?! 
The main reason I wanted to go, was because Matty loved Pink Floyd.
Boy do I miss my big brother. I know he was there in spirit though.
He seriously would have loved it.
Emily and I were so glad we ended up going. Even though we were cold, it was just fun to be there.
Thanks for going with me Em!! Love you!
I leave you with a video:

BYU vs USU. SO FUN!!

Oh my goodness. I went to the BYU vs USU game..and lets just say it was AWESOME!!
My family has never really been into sports, so I never went to college football games when I was little.
This is my 3rd year of college, and I have only been to 2 Utah football games..
Then, the other day, Britny asked me to go the BYU game, of course I said YES!
We drove down to Provo, and secretly the whole time we were thinking USU would win..
I wore a USU shirt on underneath my BYU Sweatshirt. haha 
I am always prepared.
Well within the last minute of the game, BYU caught up, and we were going NUTS. It was hilarious.
I kept asking Britny "Can they make a touchdown in so little time!?" "Britny there is only a few seconds left..is this possible?!" She seriously knows her stuff. She kept me informed the entire night. I think she thinks I am crazy. {which could be possible hehe}
Anywho....BYU ends up winning the game. It was SO exciting. I felt like an actual college student.
It was just so much fun!! Britny was so nice to invite me! Love her!

Other news: Dave took me to TSwift. I have such a nice Daddy!! Taylor was amazing.
She sang Neon Trees Animal acoustically, and it was INCREDIBLE

Also, I am really REALLY excited for the next season of this horrible show I watch. 
{I shouldnt watch it, but I do. Its addicting. and a problem..}
Its Dexter. mmm I love me some Michael C. Hall!

Outbursts of Emotion this week:
I have to write a 5-7 page paper on Dr. Assisted Suicide. Love the topic..Horrible writer. Not excited.
I also have a test on Saturday morning. 
Fall Break is in a week. *Happiness*
I need to stop picking my lips. Its a problem. I cant stop. But I'm going to this week. I have a plan.
My Birthday is coming up, and you best believe I will be in Vegas playing 21, on the 21st, when I turn 21 at Midnight. Been planning this for years now. *Inspired by Gilmore Girls. Adopted by ME.
BOOM.

Writing..and a Birthday!!

I have something to say:
I hate my writing 2010 class.
I said it.
Lets just say, I am currently not sure how I am going to get through college, because I cant write.
I LOVE MATH.
It makes perfect sense to me. Give me a formula, I can solve it!
With writing its like "Well, you can do this, but it might be better if you do this..or you could do this..." Which makes it seem like it would be easy, but I tend to over think things. So it really just confuses me. Yes, I should be working on my paper, or the test that I have today..but I choose not to. :)
It was my Nephews Birthday Yesterday!!!!!

 He turned 5 years old!
Go ahead just ask me how much I love this kid..
MORE THAN WORDS!! He is so adorable. He can cheer me up even if I am having the worst day ever.
Seriously, this kid is amazing.
But I am biased. hehe
He is also a fantastic big brother.
Happy Birthday James!

Talking in Churchy Church..

Wellllllll I thought I would write a quick post, I wish I had pictures to post but I am not on my computer.. I am working on a FB album, I have been SOOO busy catching up with school and stuff, I have just had NO time to post photos. I will do it soon!
I hope...
Oh how I miss India.
It was just so great. Seriously words can not explain how much fun I had. 
I have to talk in church this Sunday, and it sounds like I am going to have to talk again in two weeks in my home ward. 
ask me how excited I am about this..
NOT excited.
Its so weird, because I am supposed to talk about Service, and to me, India was not service. Whenever I do service, it seems I always complain, and I never want to actually do it. :| I know I am a horrible person!!
The only thing I really complained about in India was the food.. hehehe
But when I was in India. I felt like INDIA was doing me a service. I felt like the Leprosy Patients were doing ME a service. I know the children that we played with loved me with all they had, even though I was leaving in just a few short weeks. The group of people that I met while I was there, helped me so much, and did ME a service.
So I guess this leads me to what I really should be doing.. More service in my life here in good old Utah.
We all said how sad it was that we could fly half way around the world, and do Service..when there are so many opportunities around us everywhere that we pass up daily.
This sounds horrible..but I often find my self getting caught up in silly selfish things, that dont even matter..but I end up not thinking about the other people around me.
Thats gotta stop..haha
Whether it is as little as texting a friend, or opening a door for someone, or even taking cookies to a family.
Welp, there you have it. This is me trying to think of things to talk about for my Talky Talk. I have a feeling its going to be a little scatterbrained. But hopefully it turns out okay!

Other random outbursts of emotion:
This was someones Facebook status: 
I went to the store and they had all their Halloween stuff out...Halloween means its almost Thanksgiving, and Thanksgiving means its almost CHRISTMAS!!!
And then February will be here=Happiness
My Nephew is turning 5 Years Old! AHHH my goodness how time has flown by!!
I turn 21 in like a month...I still feel like I am 12..its okay.
I actually enjoy some of my classes this semester..what a change!
I think you are really great. YES YOU. 
Life is good peeps. Life is gooood.
{besides my writing class, which can go jump off a cliff and DIE.}

India Has My Heart

Love these People...
I could kill blogger. It is such a pain to freaking post photos. haha but I got few up for your viewing pleasure!!! This is me and Kim2 at Construction. We were mixing paint to paint some bathrooms..it felt so awesome..and then it started eating away at our skin. It was pretty exciting there for a minute!! So here we are painting like painters, and sweating like sweaters.
Awe..tell me that isnt precious!!! This is on our education day. We help tutor the kids in English. It is just plain adorable.
BUJJI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am sponsoring her!!! I just got the email back from the sponsorship director and it is settled!! YAHOO! What an incredible girl. Seriously, the most beautiful, kind person I have ever met. She is like the mother of her family. All of the girls will be playing, and she will be hanging up clothes to dry, taking care of everyone. Such a great example to everyone she is around.
Here are what some incredible friends helped donate for Rising Star! We cant just give the kids presents, they have to earn them at the Star Store. We are trying to teach them to earn things and be self sufficient, instead of begging for things..because that is what they are taught to do at birth.
I leave tomorrow, and none of us want to. India will always have a piece of my heart...the feelings we have had here are something we cant explain. The group I have been with are some of the most amazing people I have ever met. I feel like I have known them my entire life. Thank you Rising Star for changing our lives.

Yesterday, Sagayamary said "Saturday, you go to America?" and it nearly broke my heart. I cant believe we leave on Saturday. She asked me if I would stay for her birthday. It is on September 13th. She is so excited because she gets to talk to her mom! These kids become so attached to us, and then we all have to leave. :( Man o Man am I gonna miss her.
Gotta live it up the next few days.

Vannakam, Nandri

Today was so great, and its only half way over! This is Kim...she is one of the coordinators, and she is leaving tomorrow. She has been here 4 months long. Kim is over all of Medical, she always does a Rumba Super job!!! We will seriously miss her, but I think some good things are going to come once she gets home. :)
For medical today I was over Blood Pressure!
Then we have a line of people: Alex cleaned the sores, Brandie also cleaned, and Micah took off bandages.
With blood pressure, it gets kind of boring..so I went and sat with the people waiting in line, and we had the most hilarious time!!! Its so amazing that we speak different languages, yet we laugh so hard, and smile, and they grab my cheeks and kiss them. It is so special to be apart of their happiness. I think these two ladies have a crush on Micah..they kept pointing to him and laughing. Hilarious!!

Vannakam in Tamil means Hello, and Nandri means thank you! We always say that to them, and they say it back. It is so cute.
Love all of these people. <3
