byu, here i come! (almost!)

so i only have 4 more days until i thrown all my lifes possessions into my dads truck and head off to Utah. i think i have been counting down the days since it was 60 days. but the closer it gets, the more nervous i get!! i can finally count the days on one hand, and that my dear blogger friends makes things very real indeeed. my sisters never fail to remind me that it will be a lot harder than i think it will be, and that its not all fun and games, but that doesn't stop my mind from going into overdrive about all the amazing times im about to have!! only one problem, i often forget the main ingredient of college...school. ive always been able to succeed in high school with minimal work and absolutely no studying, but i know i will have to change my habits for college. but lets just say, im excited for it ALL! i know i will get to meet some amazing people, and be able to learn some amazing things, and have some amazing times, basically i know it will be AMAZING!! hahha :] so i cant wait for the morning when i wake up in my bed and realize it will be my last! but there are many things i will miss about my home and about California. let me start my list: my mommy!! haha i love my mom so much, she is the best :], my dad, he is possibly the funniest person i know and the best dad a daughter could ask for. my sisters! they are by far my best friends, and when i think about not seeing them for 4 months straight it makes my heart hurt immensely. Mattison my niece.she makes life beautiful. i love her like my own daughter and im seriously in denial that i wont be around her anymore. i still need to be her favorite, and if she replaces me i might cry. can you say skype daily??JENNA!! we have had the funniest moments ever, i never go a second without laughing when we are together. she is the best friend in the whole wide world and i cant believe we are going to be in different states :[ love you jenna! all the rest of my friends i have been able to have soo many amazing people in my life, and i will miss anyone who i have been able to have a good laugh with or who has made me smile;] the beach. my full harry potter set. i still really want to bring the whole set, but im just not sure i can fit them all :[ the dorms may not have room for them, and my other many books, we will see. my dogs!!(and kitty) i cant believe i have forgotten about them and put them so far down the list!! i love them sooo much, and i will sorely miss them and their kisses. my house and bed. when you live your whole entire life there, you are bound to grown attached. well that the bulk of my list. so now i have nothing left to say really, its late and my brain isnt functioning to well at the moment, so ill write another blog later, when my life gets a little more interesting. hahaha.

p.s. im pretty sure 80 percent of this is all red underlined with squiggles, i hope in college i learn how to spell. but since im pretty sure they dont teach with magic at BYU, i have to settle and learn to be thankful for spell check :]

TOMS

so for the past year or so, i have been wanting a pair of TOMS shoes really bad, but have never been able to cough up $40 bucks. well good thing about jobs is...YOU GET MONEY!!! so you know what that means....yep, i got myself my first pair of TOMS. and i do say first, because let me assure you, i WILL be getting more. and not only do i want more shoes, i now want the whole store of merchandise, including shirt, necklace, sweatshirt, hat, flag, the whole sha-bang. in one word, i'm obsessed. i am wearing my beautiful shoes as we speak, and i simply cant take them off my feet, thats how much i love them. I've had them for about 3 days, and have not touched another pair of shoes the whole time. i'm in love. but even though the shoes are amazing comfortable, and completely adorable, i love the cause even more. i absolutely love the fact that by doing something as simple as buying some shoes, i am helping little kids who don't even have the most simple commodities of life. all my life i have taken shoes for granted, i mean shoes were one thing i could always count on having. every school year i would get another brand spanking new pair to add to my collection, and when my shoes got gross, or over worn, i would throw them out and buy some more. but to think of kids who don't even have one single pair to wear, it honestly breaks my heart. to these kids, the major thing we fight for in life don't matter, the things we spend our whole lives to achieve, aren't even on their minds. instead they are forced to walk around in a harsh environment, getting sores and diseases that can be spread through their bare feet. so when i think that my pair of shoes, which i love, will help a child in need get the same amazing pair of shoes, its quite amazing. but don't take my word for it, read on the website,http://www.toms.com/, I've been on it everyday for the last 5 days, obviously because i'm obsessed, and i cant get enough of the organization. in fact, my new goal is to become an intern sometime in the next few years and be able to help more hands on. well now that I've gone on and on about how much i love TOMS, go an get yourself a pair :] and see for yourself how amazing it feels to wear TOMS!

minor update, no big deal :]

so school starts in 8 weeks!! i cant believe it, things are moving so fast, yet so very slow. i am so excited and cant wait to meet my room mate. i know i am going to have an absolute amazing time!! on another note, i just got a job and so im pretty excited for that :] i will be babysitting for these 2 little girls, and let me tell you they are adorable and when i met them they were sooo excited for me to start! i cant wait, but i will have to wake up at 4 o'clock in the morning to get to thier house by 4:45. so it will take some adjusting, but i will get used to it! other than those few bits of information, my life is boring as can be. haha but im ok with it. a little bit of boring before a crazy year next year is something i can live with. mostly i just hang around with my sisters, and too cute niece, and my friends. i love everyone in my life and am so thankful for everything they do for me. i think i might do a blog a litttle bit later of mine and taylors trip to utah, so look back for that :]]

wow

i have been on her in soo long i couldnt remember my email or password....thats not a good sign. well there seems to be alot going and absolutly nothing going on in my life right now, if that makes sence. so let me pour out my soul a little bit via the internet.
number one...im gonig to BYU provo next year!! im soo excited i might die. i feel like ever since my sister lauren went there its the only place i could imagine myself, so for 8 years my mind has basically been convinced i would get in, so when i did it was pretty much the happiest moment ever. but speaking of college, im pretty scared. i mean im so excited, but ive never really been on my own. take that back, NEVER EVER, been on my own. im also scared i wont have a good roomate, that i wont meet people i click with, and that i wont like my major. but i know once i get there it will all work out, its just imagining what the future is like that scares me. becasue right now i cant imagine anything else but high school, but dont get me wrong, im soo ready to leave high school. in fact right now i hate it with a passion. so im pretty excited to see what the future hold for poor little jonni :]
so that pretty much sums up my college situation, which is basically all that is happening right now haha :] but number 2....im in love with ceramics!! i can actually make stuff on the wheel now, and im obsessed. haha yep its true. you know how people day dream about random stuff...haha i dream about ceramics. haha yep. dont tell anyone its my deep dark secret haha! but im still not pro so dont go crazy folks ok??
number 3. im being so good this past month! ive been reading my scriptures for the past month every single night! even if its 12 o clock and im about to drop dead asllep, i still read them. and i have gained sooo much from them. i honestly feel like im a much better person, and just in the past month. i have also decide i am going to go on a mission :] may come as a surpirse to some people since ive never really talked about, but for the past 2 months or so ive been really excited and now i just really want to go becasue the most impotant thing in my life is my faith and testimony and i want other to feel the same as i do and feel the same happiness. but i still have 3 and a half years, so its still a while :] but im pretty excited!
so thats pretty much my life right now. the basics. haha this definantly wasnt my soul poured out into print though, haha really want my soul, steal my journal! haha just kidding...dont do that.


oh and right now im listening to A Rocket to the Moon and am extreamly happy :] although quite bored!!!!
