Termites and Midnights and Night Lights

Hi! It has been too long. I've been...well I could say busy but I'd be lying. Actually I've been lazy and boring and that means watching lots of episodes of F R I E N D S , eating mac and cheese for breakfast, and taking naps in the sun . No one wants to hear about that. But I did do some fun things =) 1) B I O L O G Y I decided to take Biology this summer. Now, for those who don't know, Math and Science are the names of those two little demons in Disney's Hercules movie...at least in my mind. So Biology is my LAST general core class at BYU. Most people take it their 1st semester of college and I'm taking it my senior year. I've been dreading it. Well, so far it has been surprisingly enjoyable. We read a book called Voo doo Sci ence (I know, I know) and it was really cool. Now we are reading a book about decisions and it has guys blowing up missiles and fire figh ters in action. It rocks! Don't worry, it gets better. Today we played with TERMITES ...

General Conference April 2017 Peace in Adversity

General Conference. The short definition is that two times a year the leaders of our church share messages with us to bless our lives and uplift our souls, messages that they were inspired to deliver by God. I firmly believe that no matter what faith you are of, you will find a talk in General Conference that will help you. All the talks are wonderful and a few really struck me but one phrase in particular was the answer to the plea I didn't know I had. Sometimes lately life has felt hard. Work gets stressful. I'm sleep deprived. I have big decisions to make and have no idea what I'm going to do. You know the feeling. Well, for a while there it was so much that daily I knelt down in my room and asked God what I'd done wrong. I felt like my life must be hard and so NOT peaceful because I'd somehow offended God. Yet, I feel like I've been doing pretty good. I'm in no way perfect. Sometimes my prayers are short, my scripture study is kind of basic, I fall asl...

Tolkien and Hobbits

Image
Over on Instagram, or, more appropriately named, bookstagram, I did a photo challenge. It was #middleearthmarch. Boy did I unleash a dragon. I never realized how much I loved Tolkien's work and on how many different levels it touches me. I really enjoyed the challenge of taking beautiful photos, finding quotes, reading through the books and discussing them with others. I won't tell you everything I posted and discussed or put up all the pictures. Let me just share with you my favorite things and post my favorite pictures. But first, I have to tell you how I learned about hobbits. There and Back Again... Growing up my parents had several dozen kid movies recorded on VHS for me to watch. We didn't go out and buy every movie that was released so I ended up watching these movies on an endless loop. My favorites were Rainbow Brite, The Care Bears movie 2, The Land Before Time and the hobbit movies: The Hobbit and The Return of the King. The hobbit movies were cute lil carto...
