Why don't you ask me what my future holds.... because I can confidently say I have no idea, whatsoever.
I just love when you think you have a general idea of where your future is going, but then something changes. You realize that maybe your plans might not be right. This whole process has happened in the past couple weeks.
I started my freshman year with an undeclared major.
Freshman year is almost over, and I still have an undeclared major.
(I usually wouldn't post on the internet something this personal, but I feel as though I need too.)
The past couple weeks I though I had my major figured out. I was just needing to plan to meet with an elementary education advisor and plan out my schedule. I even had my classes planned for fall semester. I also had another plan. I was going to attend fall semester and then submit mission papers and leave at the beginning of 2014. But now, I don't know if that is what I need to do either.
Maybe those plans will still happen, I am not saying they won't. I just don't think I have came to the conclusion the right way. As I thought about the plans I had made this past weekend, I realized those were my "desires" at the time. It sounded good? And maybe it is good.
The reason I am back and at the starting line is because I don't think I have been open to my heavenly father if that makes sense. I have prayed about what I should do, but like I mentioned above, those were my desires.
This might sound weird, but the timing of this situation could not have came at a better moment.
I was spiritually fed this weekend.
It is amazing how things work out the way they do.
So my family (the whole gang) spent the weekend in SLC. The previous monday I was bummed when I walked out of institute and saw Brooke Walker was going to be the speaker for Religion in Life. Shoot. I desperately wanted to go, but we would be leaving Friday morning which meant I would not be at school for Religion in Life. I wanted to hear what she had to say so badly, I was going to have someone voice record it.
Well, things happened and Wytten ended up having a doctors appointment on Friday at 11.. This was my opportunity for something great! Not really. But since we were waiting for them, I convinced my parents that we should plan to leave at 1:30. They agreed which meant this girl got to hear the words of someone special.
** Note when I found out I couldn't go I tweeted about it, and Brooke replied. So when I Found out I was going I obviously tweeted her back and so on**
I had spent the night in Garland because it was my grandpa's retirement party the night before. So I woke up, got ready, and headed to campus. You don't even know how excited I was.
On my drive over, I had this realization that what she had prepared, was what I needed to hear. And it was. Everything she talked about I could apply to my life. It was unreal. After Religion in Life was over, I went up and talked to her (in her twitter reply she said "please come say hi afterwards" well I wasn't going to pass up that opportunity.)
I was nervous. That usually doesn't happen, but it did. I waited for her to get off the stage and I told her who I was and she gave me a hug and we talked for a minute. Sweetest person. I don't even know why I was nervous. Such a personable and beautiful lady. Like really, I want to be her friend! We took a picture, and she asked me to tweet it and link her in it. (Twitter is Awesome)
How blessed I am to have met such an amazing women Role Model:)
I left Logan so happy, I knew it was a start to a great weekend. What I felt was not the everyday, normal feeling.
The second amazing thing that happened was the 183rd Annual General Conference. So many wonderful talks all telling me to have faith in the lords timing, to know that he has a plan for me and to stand firm and steadfast having confidence in the lord. (If you weren't able to watch conference click HERE)
I might not know what I am doing in my future, but someone does. It is comforting to know that.
Well, that is it for now... I think:)
