Summer Dreamin

This summer I am taking my first break from school in a year! For two months, I don't have class, work, internships, nothing. I'm taking this opportunity to spend time with some of my family in St. George, Utah. My brother and his family just got this awesome house!

So my job hunt was unsuccessful...who wants an employee for only 2 mo
nths? No one, apparently. But it's all good. I get to babysit...a lot, and hang out with my awesome family! Oh, and hang out by the pool in the backyard.

Lately I've been thinking a lot about what I want to do with my life. I've b
een sure for years that I want to be an athletic trainer but there are days that I feel like I can do so much more. Going to my internship at the high school this last winter semester made me love the career. I spent hours with those kids everyday and I loved every second of what I was doing.
But still there are times I think of doing something else. With how often
I dye and cut my hair, sometimes I think about going to cosmetology school.



Did I mention that all of these hair changes were within the last year? Yeah...addicted. Which color looks best? I cant decide...

For now I think I'll plan on going back to finish my degree at BYU...graduation December 2012! Can't wait. After that...the world is my playground.

So while I've been doing all this thinking about what I'm going to do with my life I've come to this realization. When everything feels like it's falling apart, breathe. Keep focused on your goals and what you need to get there and everything will fall into place. I think that as long as we are making good decisions and keeping the commandments, Heavenly Father will never let us get so far off track that we can't get back to where we need to be. He has a plan and He knows what He's doing. Be flexible. Our plan may not be as good as His plan for us. If we put our trust in him and continue to live righteously, we will always succeed. It is all going to work out. It may not be how you think it will, but it will. Sometimes God gives us dreams so big we have to grow into them.
