MAY?!

Holy moly!

I can't believe that it is already MAY! Time has been flying by. I am back from Las Vegas and I actually turned in my resignation letter at work two weeks ago. My last day is May 25th and I'm filled with excitement and fear all at the same time. I love my job, don't get me wrong...but I feel like it was taking up time that should be spent on other things namely church, acting, and school. I'll finally be going back ON CAMPUS next semester!!!! I haven't been able to be on campus for two years because of school and I am so excited to get back. I also am really excited to have the availability to go to more lessons with the Sister Missionaries as well. I'm pretty terrified that I won't have my income anymore...but I know that God will provide.

Speaking of God, I recently got the opportunity to meet the prophet Thomas S. Monson last Saturday when he came to Kansas City for a Cultural Event and our Temple dedication. It was INCREDIBLE! I always believed that he was the prophet but I don't think it really hit me until he walked into the room. You could literally FEEL the Spirit as he came in and I was crying and smiling all at the same time. My cheeks hurt a little after his talk because I was smiling from ear to ear. I hope that if any of you get the opportunity to be in the same room as President Monson you take advantage of it. I can't explain the feeling that I got...but it sure was incredible.

I really miss Sister Moore & Sister Porter. They've both been transferred to the middle of nowhere Kansas! I write them every week and Sister Porter & I have a journal that we send back and forth and write our letters in. It will be great to sit together and look over it once her mission is over. She's having a tough time with her current companion and I just don't know how someone could be so cruel. Especially someone who is on a Mission for the Church. It really hurts my heart for her but I know she will be fine. She's an amazing girl and she has so much to offer. She's touched my life so much, and she's sure to touch so many more.

Anyway, I better get off here and do some work, right?! Only a little over two weeks left and I'm out of here!
