Once upon a Fall Semester at the LDS Business College...
It's my third day of school but literally second day because I ended up switching classes so that I only have to go to school Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. That means I have to do homework on Tuesdays and Thursdays and ALSO go to the temple :P
I have:
IT102 (I BETTER PASS THIS CLASS OR ELSE!?!? dun... dun... dun...)
English 220
Math 106
English 201
I'll also only be in school from 10am- 2:30pm. I think this has been the best schedule that I've ever had. I absolutely love how we start our classes with a prayer and sometimes even end with a prayer. My instructors are super amazing and fun. I'm glad I chose 4 random ones really well. That's always important! RIGHT?!?
I'm thankful for sunshine, and the clouds that look like I'm in the movie, TOY STORY! O.o
I have met the most amazing twins ever! They are the sweetest, the cutest, the most mellow yet crazy, the most humble, meek, ultimately righteous... They make me smile this big :) I have great friends! I look forward to getting to know you guys more this semester! You girls inspire me so much and I la-la-la-la-LOVE you girls! And Stevie, you're my long lost sister that I never had! You are just so cute ;-) and Monica and I just have the same mentality. Love you girls :)
Thank you so much for living a righteous life and always striving to become like Christ. It's the best thing you can do to show those who are inactive or don't know about the Church what our goals are.
"As an exceptional son or daughter of God, you are sorely needed. There is an urgent need for men and women who will stand for principles against the growing pressures to compromise those very principles. Men and women are required who will act nobly and courageously for what the Lord has defined as right, not for what is politically correct or socially acceptable. We need individuals who have the spiritual, righteous influence that will motivate others to enduring good." [Richard G.Scott]
Remember who you are and Make Good Choices!!!
Have a great day :)
Love Always,
Trish

So long Summer, until we meet again
Today is the beginning of a brand new semester.. my last semester in good ol' Utah. Bittersweet but I know I'm headed for a new change at the end of this to continue on to bigger and better things in my life.
Every semester, I have been privileged to meet new people, attend interesting classes and meet new instructors, dated a few, smiled a lot, and of course engaged myself in all kinds of spiritual activities.. that you can never go wrong. I was also able to get my wisdom teeth pulled out this past month and that pain lasted for about 2-3 weeks. You may wonder why?!? I did this Lifetree Research when I got my wisdom teeth surgery done and it was pretty much the most painful 12hours of my life. I was there from 6am to 6pm and it was a test to see if Placebos would work on their patients.. MORE LIKE TORTURE! And it didn't work on me. I felt the surgeon pulling my teeth out and hearing it crack because the numbing medication didn't even work on me either. But looking on the brighter side of it all, I got paid $450.00 instead of me paying a dentist to get it pulled out. It was worth it.
People make mistakes. We're all only humans and that's why I'm thankful for Christ's Atoning sacrifice that he died for our sins. He wants us to return to him one day. So, CHOOSE THE RIGHT and REPENT! The LDS Business College taught me two things: to love and to serve our fellowmen. I have never been so fully blessed in my life until I moved here two years ago and really wanted to change. Many of you have not even noticed that I am a convert of the church. I wasn't born into this but I am sure glad I'm a part of this church now. I'm thankful for my loving parents who's support are endless, 3 Brothers who have built me to become a tough girl and to always find someone like them, friends who encourage me to become better and better each day, the Salt Lake temple that I live next to, to show me the way that I will never be lost, and an amazing bishopric who's always been there for me while my Dad isn't around to take care of his princess and his precious Jewel. Most of all, my roommate who has been the most humble and one of the righteous girls I've so fully respected. I love you all, and thank you for helping me pull through these past two years the least stressful as it could possibly be.
We go through many challenges in our lives and it's not always going to be easy. On Elder Dallin H. Oaks' talk during the CES fireside he states,
"If you can't go through the difficulties as a single adult, you will most likely will not be able to go through the difficulties of a married life."
I know that I've learned to face trials and hardships many times because I've been independent for two years now and I may even cry on the phone to my mother because of how attached I can become sometimes. I love my Mom more than anything. I am so blessed to be her only daughter. She's the courage that helps me stand strong and the strength to keep me going. She is the smile on my face. She has a good heart.
I don't know how many of you still read my blog but these twins, you know who you are, told me how outdated my blog has become. But I will do my best to keep updating this because I know how many have looked up to me the past two years that I've been so spiritually fed. If you ever need to talk to anyone, I promise you that whatever we talk about will only be between us and that's an invitation ;-)
I hope everyone has had an amazing first day whether you are new to the school or attending your last semester at the Business College :)
