Well Yesterday I was informed of some great News I am receiving an award from Fanshawe College on November 12 2008 at 5pm . The award name is the Kent Shillinglaw Memorial Award. Now this award which I am about to tell you the things that it involves. I was selected as this receipent via my Program co-ordinator at Fanshawe College. So here is about the award I will be receiving.
This award, selected by your program coordinator, recognizes a student who demonstrates a high degree of perseverance, dedication, enthusiasm, tolerance and achievement throughout the second year of the Motive Power Technician program of study.
I am grateful to Mr Patterson for selecting me to receive an award. I never thought in all my Years at Fanshawe 5 in total that I would ever be given such an great reward for finishing such an amazing program. I see what a little determination can get you. and it can get you along way.
I hope that everyone is having a good day and I just wanted to let you all in on my exciting news continue to look forward to posts.
Love you all

Today is a Beautiful Day
Hey My fellow readers!
I wanted to say how excited I am for today. its a beautiful day the sun is shining brightly and its not overly cold which is nice. So the sisters are coming for Lunch today I try and have them for some sort of meal once a week. The one sister Sister Kulbeth wanted to have grilled cheese sandwiches, something odd and not something I would expect a missionary to say but I have agreed to make them there grilled cheese sandwiches, and Have even gone out and bought the expensive cheese for sister Moesinger cause she doesn't like the cheese in packages. So if I never get saved for a mission we can blame it on Sister Moesinger and her refusal to eat packaged Cheese LOL.
Last night was an amazing institute class, We learnt from 2 Nephi chapters 1-2 I learnt so much and wrote many different things in my scriptures of what this or that scripture meant to me. So this years challenge from Brother Cole is that we have to Own a scripture Nothing overly hard. So The scripture that I chose was Alma 7:11-13 for those of you who have not read it I suggest you do it talks about the things that Jesus Christ did for us. And How he knows how we feel! Every day he knows how we feel better then our own friends do.
And that is pretty scary when I have alot of close friends. So on monday I did the spiritual thought in FHE I hate public speaking its always been one of my biggest pet peeves. But I did it And I did it on Compassion. Jesus Christ was our greatest example of compassion. And the example that I used in my life is The sister missionary who helped get me back going to church and how she showed great compassion for me. I share that story a lot with people as its really my defining testimony of Missionaries. And how much they really are needed to help those around the world.
I hope all of you are having a great day remember I love you all you bring an example to my life an example of what I need to strive to do better, You are the amazing listeners when I just need you to listen to a complaint and an even better advice giver when I need the advice. No matter where my life takes me what road I go down. I know that you will always be there for me. I am grateful for the Missionaries in my life Past and Present. You all kept me strong when times got tough and even when I struggled you never let me fall off that path I jumped back on in October 2003. its been 5 years since I have been back at church and these past 5 years have brought me the greatest Joy and happiness I have ever had.
Continue to be strong and hold to the rod.
love you all

Today!
Well Today seem to be an exceptionally longer day cause I slept longer then I usually would. I was really not feeling good last night I came home from work and I slept till almost 4:00pm today it was very very nice to beable to sleep so long and even though i still do not feel overly well I feel better then I felt last night.
work was alright yesterday, I started an hour and a half sooner and was out at 11:45 so it was kind of nice other then the fact that not feeling good I did alright. I made some tips which i put in a jar. But that is okay I get paid on friday. For those of you who do not know I have like tons of DVD's and half of them I haven't watched in so long.
So this week or the past few days I have spent days when I am not on the go with the sisters watching DVD's I have currently watched 15 and I still have probably at least another 50 or so to watch and I am Currently watching the Beauty Shop. It should be really funny seeing it has Queen Latifah in it. I hope everyone has had a good day. I will be leaving in about an hour to go to institute. I am excited because I only need this Book Of Mormon Class to graduate from the Institute of Religion Class. I am very very Excited about that.
Anyways I hope that everyone has had a great day I love you all and I want to hear from you all soon.
Love you lots

Hey There Readers
Hey There Readers,
Well I have decided to try this blogging world Thing I am not very good and Likely will have more problems keeping this up to date then most of you bloggers out there. The reason Why I say that is because I am working a lot more then I would like to sometimes and I go out with the sister Missionaries a lot. I am grateful for you all for all my friends. You have all been a wonderful part of my life. You have all helped me become a wonderful person the example that I want to be for others you have helped mold me and helped my testimony of the gospel of Jesus Christ become stronger. I have a desire to go and serve a mission I just have to work on saving the money that I need to be able to go and serve the lord.
I have had wonderful missionaries as Examples to me. I have become a person who I never thought that I would become. When I first moved to london my goals for church where not the same as they are now. When I first started going to church I was going for the social aspect of church, now I am going too feel of the love of our lord Savior Jesus Christ and for the principles and commandments that are taught.
My desire to go out and serve the lord has become greater over the last year then it ever has, It came more so with a wonderful Sister Missionary that went home in July. She was the one who really brought out the best in me in the gospel. She and her companions got me going out on appointments with them and it really changed my view of the gospel.
I have grown up a lot in my move to London. I have become a more mature person then when I did when I lived in Clinton.
I want to thank you all wherever you are or whatever you may be doing for all the love and support that you have given me over this time. For your constant care and for listening to my every complaint. And its great to have wonderful friends as listeners.
thank you all until next time readers.
love you
Crystal
