NINJAS EVERYWHERE!!!

So last week was AMAZING!!! Even though I have been swamped with homework me and three of my roommates made time for FUN!!! We made a "love plate" and gave it to one of our friends, Jake Thomas. That name should sound familiar to you. If you've been reading my posts you would know that he was my, "crust material." Any way, so we made this love plate telling him of our "affection" for him. There were some major inside jokes brought up on that one single plate. It was FUN!!! Any way, so we were trying to tape it to his door so we wouldn't have to bother the movie that he was watching. When we were walking away, Olivia was running after us. We noticed that she stook out like a sore thumb because she was the wearing WHITE!!! Yeah trying to be sneaky/ninjaish and wearing white... at night... not the greatest idea ever Olivia! (We still love her).

So we came back home and pretended to be ninjas; we even gave each other ninja names. (back to front) Nicole aka: Nicoli; Shelly aka: Samari Searle; Olivia aka: The White Ninja; and Me aka: JoWAnna. So yeah... if you want to know the whole story look at my photos on facebook. I put some action pictures on there too, you'll love it :)

ONE DAY... hopefully

I have no idea why I put this post with this title, but it's all that came to my mind. The last couple of days have been both trying and spiritual. I have been having some arguments with my roommate and I just haven't known how to react to her. I definetly don't want to bring those things up again (because she feeds off the confrontaion), but I just can't stand how emotional she is. It is throwing off my groove of happiness. If you have any advice I am more than willing to hear it. (HEY!!! Ask and you shall receive! she just appologized! But I am still up for the advice.)

The spiritual part of my week was Sunday. I went visiting teaching with my companion, who by the way is the best person EVER!!! Anyway, we were walking to the person's house who we V.T. and some how she got me talking about how I lack at spiritual thoughts. She told me to just start bearing my testiomny and I would be linked with Heavenly Father; he would tell me what to say. I did what she told me to and I could not deny the spirit that told me the words to say. The lesson was about daily scripture study and while I was talking about it I felt how important it is. That was my first time, that I remember, I felt the spirit that strongly.
I guess that my title fits in. Hopefully one day I will be able to feel the promptings of the spirit guiding me to say the things that need to be said.

I love you all! Thank you for being my family and friends. I couldn't picture my life without you in it. <3

Water Works

Last week was CRAZY!!! I think I started crying like three different times! I don't know what my problem was, but it was nice to release my emotions. This last week was a time where I really took into consideration my weaknesses. I won't go into those weaknesses, but i just want to say that I love my Heavenly Father. During this week I was able to feel his comforting hug. I could feel his sadness as He cried with me. I know I'm not perfect. I know it so well. I hope that you all know how much I love you!

My New "Crust" Material

Ok so first I will explain the "crust" part of my title. One of my roommates, Olivia, was trying to say, "crush material," but what came out was, "crust material." It was HILARIOUS!! Anyway, so my new "crust's" name is Jake Thomas. He is one of Olivia, Nicole, and Rachel's home teachers. He is so dang CUTE!! His personality is just so adorable. He came over to meet the girls and he meet me in the process :) It was just ment to be. He likes sports, in fact he is majoring in Sports Management or something like that. I know you are probably laughing at me, but I don't care, this guy is definitely "CRUST MATERIAL!"

My First Date!!!

I am so proud of my self. For my first date I actually asked the guy instead of the other way around! Cudo's for me!!! I made chicken enchiladas and it seemed like everyone liked them. Oh, one bit of info for the date experience. It was a pre-valentines dinner with all six of my roommates. It was so much fun; I would definetly do it again. So when I asked this guy I thought that I would like to date him. But after I asked him and the more I thought about it the less I did. I was sooooo nervous for the date, here I was asking someone out and then it turns out I don't even like him!!! I was nervous because I didn't want this guy to think that I liked him, but I didn't want to be mean. In the end I had a lot of fun, and he hasn't asked me out so I'm thinking he doesn't like me either... which is a good thing. This guy is really nice and I would love to be friends and get to know him better, but I doubt anything will ever come out of it. I am ready for MORE dates!! I think I'm hooked... all I need now are for guys to ask me out... or I guess I can ask someone again. LOL
