Finally Internet

After about 2 weeks of no internet and having to travel to check my e-mail and stuff I am able to safely say I finally have the internet back at home thanks to my dad getting a little upset at bell today!!! I hope all has been well with you my friends. its been a crazy couple weeks with no internet which has meant travelling to Fanshawe to usually check my e-mail which is hard when you have limited time on your hands as it is. I hope all is well in all your lives I have taken a small but much needed break away from the YSA I have only gone to FHE and Institute going to another ward or branch for sunday church!!! Why you may ask that is a story for another time.
I have been in brantford helping my parents move less then a year after the last move!!! its been stressful and a lot of stairs climbing and yelling because we have no clue where we are going to put this or that that I realized I hope it isn't me for a while moving.
I hope all is well and until next time

Why Do People Not Listen!!!

Okay so today! I went to go on the internet and it was disconnected! So alias I am at Fanshawe College Right now typing this up! Why Don't people Listen and write things down when you tell them something so that when you tell people that your paying them this date they have record of it instead of not writing it down and you having NO INTERNET STUPID BELL!!!
I have been having a rough few days it makes things seem different! Life seems strange and I feel like the world is like collasping around me! I don't know why that was an odd comment but that is the way I feel.
Today its been snowing which makes things cold! I hate winter the cold and the snow and during the winter I would rather fly south like the geese do and be in like Florida or something then in the cold climates of Ontario, Canada. Well What else is there to mention! Life seems so dull and boring right now. I am actually starting to feel somewhat tired maybe I will Get to sleep before 5am .
Then I can maybe attend institute at Fanshawe Tomorrow! Which I haven't been attending since I really don't need that class. But it will be nice to beable to attend since I haven't been in like ever. Who knows I might learn something fun and exciting!!!
Well that is all for this post hopefully by my next post my internet will be back up and running!!!
bye for now

Friends!!!

You're a true friend,

that I want you to know,

Our love for each other

has helped us to grow.

We've been through some tough times,

but we've made it through,

The only one I ever trusted was you.

I have many wonderful friends, Some Close Some Far and In other countries. But no Matter what they are my friends I can turn to them for simple little advice and know that they are always there to lend a ear when I need it. Whether friends since Public School days or friends in the last few months I want you to all know that I love you all. You have all been wonderful in helping mold and shape me to become a better friend. You have given me countless ends of advice and comforted me when I have been in need of comfort. You have helped me get back on the straight and narrow in life instead of off course on my own in a dark and dreary place. You have listened to simple little complaints and said nothing when I have needed you to say nothing.
Without the wonderful friends that I have in my life, I know that life would be different. I know that my happiness would always be sadness. I enjoy spending time with my friends when I see them when I or they are not busy. I enjoy celebrating special occasions with them. I enjoy just being around my friends because my friends have helped bring out the best in me. I know I have not always been the most open person with you all but I thank each and everyone of you for letting me tell you what I want to and not pushing me to share what I don't want to with you. For your patience that you have with me when I may make you angry or get you annoyed with me.

You are always a great example too me of what I need to do to better improve myself as a friend. Thanks for all your countless amounts of love. I am grateful for it all,
Your all wonderful I love you all your amazing.

"Don't walk in front of me,
I may not follow;
Don't walk behind me,
I may not lead;
Walk beside me,
and just be my friend."

Why Did They Have to Go!!!

Tuesday November 11, 2008 I received the news that The Sisters From the YSA where being taken out and we where therefore receiving elders back into the branch. Great Not that I hate elders but seriously I can't go out with the Elders like I can the Sisters. The sisters have been a great influence in my life and have really made me see that I want to go on a Mission myself.
It became more and more clearer the more I went out with the sisters. Since October 2007 I probably have been on over 300 appointments with the sisters and probably have put 5000 or so Km's on my car plus probably have put millions of minutes on my phone. But I have learnt a lot through going on those appointments with them, I have gained a stronger testimony of the gospel. I have gained a greater knowledge of the scriptures and have found some new favourite scriptures. Mainly Alma7:11-13 knowing that Jesus Christ really does know how I feel when I am having a bad day or whatever has brought a lot of comfort in my life. Let's see I can probably name you ever sister that has served in the YSA since October 2007
Sister Keri Powell
Sister Hofer
Sister Cain
Sister Fischer
Sister Moesinger
Sister Kulbeth







These Sisters have helped me had a greater desire to go on a Mission to serve my loving heavenly father in the way that they have. To spend 18 months of my life out to help those prepared to listen to come closer to our loving heavenly father. I know that these Ladies are wonderful each one of them have a great capacity to have compassion for people and the spirit you feel when you go on an appointment is amazing. Through all these appointments that I went I I was able to give my first talk at one of the baptisms. I haven't spoke in about 3 years it was nerve racking but I was able to do it and it flowed very very well. Know that I love the gospel Of jesus Christ!

Transfer Day Plus More

Well Today Has seemed to be a little more exceptionally harder then most days as of recent. It is transfer day. How I dread this day because 1 Sister Missionary usually leaves London, In that sense I am right but in this case both our gone from our beloved YSA branch. That is right they closed our area down for sisters and we get the dreaded Elders. Unfortunately Sister Moesinger has been transfered to Port Colborne to be companions with Sister Blackburn and Sister Kulbeth will remain in London and Work in the 3rd ward with the sisters there Sister Terry and Sister Barker. Which means I don't know where Sister Cain got transfered to and I know Sister Fischer is staying in Parry Sound.
Other note Today I receive My award from fanshawe College, The award I have been looking forward to for 2 weeks. The Kent Shillinglaw Memorial Award, Unfortunately My father could not be there to watch me receive the award. And Neither could my grandfather who had made prior commitments before me knowing that I would be receiving such a great award.
Work has been slow lately and although I love work, Some days I could just take and throw the customers or the co workers depending on my mood. And being sick has made it even more challenging at times. I know that I am still looking forward to many great days ahead. I will post pictures as soon as I can from my beloved awards ceremony.
I hope all is well with all of you remember I love you. and until the next post I look forward to updating you again soon. Hopefully before another 6 weeks is up and the next transfer has come and gone.

Since Last Post

Well alot has gone on since my last post on this silly site. I have recently called a friend In Washington State. Oh how I love her and miss being able to see her but being able to talk on the phone brings alot of comfort into the fact we don't get to see each other. She was telling me how she was getting ready to go to school in Idaho in January. Although that is a little closer still not close enough to me.
Then I also found out another friend of Mine she just got engaged that is right on Halloween night How exciting is that. I am totally pumped for her. So this week has been very much quiet and very much me being stuck in my apartment although I did get a lot of house work done watched alot of movies and had a lot of Love and support and wonderful visitors this week. So its been great that way except I have recently gotten this un imagineable cold and I hate it so very very much.
This wednesday I receive my award from fanshawe college and that will be the most exciting news likely of the week. Other then going out with two of my most favourite people. Hopefully I will not have to miss another night of institute this week as I did last week. So hopefully my cold subsides a little bit. I have just recently gotten my hair shortened. Its shorter then I would imagine but its manageable right now which is nicer then what it would be if I didn't cut it. I would still look like a shaggy dog.
I on Friday night got a Phone call from this lady I have been giving a ride to church. I get up earlier then I need to to take her and her daughters to church. I have been wondering why I haven't heard from them and was kind of getting worried but I found out that the reason I haven't heard from them is because they have all been sick. How great for the lovely sicknesses we get geesh.
I don't know what else to write about. I am about all out of things to say I will talk with you soon
