Welcome Back!

As has happened with most of my journal attempts, I stopped posting for a long time, choosing instead to post on Facebook. But, I'm back now and you'll never be able to stop me from talking! =)

The last two years have been very busy and exciting. My family moved from Reno, NV to Houston, TX in January 2013 in the middle of the school year. I played softball, passed my classes, and barely survived junior year. Senior year was then gone in the blink of an eye. I finished out my band career with marching band and concert band. I also participated in Honor Band and got my first job.
I worked while in school; I also took some college courses through a program called Dual Credit and prepared for college. I graduated June 7th, 2014 and now I'm a full fledged adult!




Okay, now that I'm a little caught up (for details, look at Facebook =) ), time for the fun stuff.

Recently, I have started community college. I am taking 14 credits which are: chemistry, learning frameworks (a required class), Texas gov., and statistics. Next semester I plan to take the maximum credits allowed, all so that I can earn my associates degree by June of 2015. Once I have earned my AA, I will be turning in my papers so that I can go on a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. The mission is for 1 1/2 years and I will learn where I will serve once I've turned in my papers.
After I serve a mission, I plan to attend a 4 yr. university (choices being so far: BYU Provo, U of H, UT San Antonio, or UT Arlington) and major in nursing. Once I have my BSN, I plan to take the steps to become a registered nurse, an RN. I want to work in NICU (neonatal intensive care unit), PICU (pediatric intensive care unit), or the emergency room. I think that nursing is a great fit for my personality and nursing is also what I feel like the Lord wants me to do.
Everything that I'm preparing to do is because I have received promptings from my Heavenly Father. I know that if I follow Him, I will be happy. As such, I'm so excited for the next step in my life! I can't wait to become a nurse and to serve a mission!

That will be all for my first post back from a looooonnnnngggg break. =) Keep and eye out for future posts!
