YAY YAY YAY

YAY!
The young woman's presidency came to my house today!
They brought my personal progress book and everything!
Then they told me about what to expect etc.
I am so so excited. This Sunday is my very last day of Primary!
Then I am going to turn twelve this week! And best of all it is on a Wednesday!
MUTUAL NIGHT! YAY! I am super happy. I have been counting down this day for forever!
Oh I can't wait. I could just dance around my room! Oh wait too late I already did!
My next post will be on Sunday after Church! And we are having a party in class!
YAY YAY YAY! Ok I have to stop righting now because I am officially at a loss of words besides this one. YAY YAY YAY!

The Age Game


I am completely bummed.
All the girls that were at YW which is everyone that was going in this year,
are all ready in! How unfair is that! I am going to be the absolutely last one in and it sucks. All because my birthday is in September. If you haven't noticed me and the month of September have a love hate relationship. Love: I am the oldest in my class. Hate: That keeps me back from the girls my age. Love: It's a month of swimming and lemonade and ice cream. Hate: It's so scorching that I have to stay inside. Love: It's my birthday month. And now lady 's and gentlemen it is time to unveil the new hate! Drum roll please! Hate: it is keeping me from going into young woman's longer then I would like. Oh well I will be in soon enough! Anyways. This post originally wasn't going to be about my love hate relationship with my birthday month instead it was going to be about the girls I know who have already entered.

(Names have been changed for privacy's sake)

Amy - the popular. She is gorgeous and popular. She isn't mean which is a wonder. And is amazing at sports. (which is how you gain social status in this town, you have to at least play. Forget hot cheer leaders who date the football players idea that goes on in every other school) Note to me: ask her how she does her hair.

Lena - Has moved. recently and I don't know much about her.

Tina - the motherly. She is terrific with kids and will be a great mother some day (also moving). Note to me: take lessons from her.

Claire - A social butterfly. Everyone thinks she is their best friend. She really knows how to socialize and mingles at every event she goes to. Note to me: ask her to teach me to be a social butterfly too.

Me - I look like I am Amy's twin except with not quite the social status. (I am more rock climbing dancing, soccer - which they don't have here, nose in a book type girl) But you know that everyone wants to be my friend because I am so cool like that.

SO there you go. My future beehive classmates. Can't wait

SUPER DUPER

I am so super duper excited to go into young woman's,
I only have five days and eight ours left! But who's counting?
I really hope that I will become a lot more spiritual once I am in.
Which not that I am not trying in primary I truly am, it's just a little bit difficult when the lessons and singing times are planned for kids over two times younger then you.
I mean there are always the classes that come afterwards which aren't to bad at all.
Especially when the teacher brings treats! Hey everybody likes treats and snacks when they haven't eaten for five hours. No really think about it there are three hours of church you eat an hour or two before that (in my case two) that is five whole hours, and studies have said you should eat every four. So I am not a kid just because I like treats. (OK maybe I am still a kid a little) But when I enter into young woman's I will no longer be a child. I will demand respect with my modest dressing and righteous manner. It will be great so lets practice. " don't see any kids around here do you?" "No?" "Good answer!"

Teach me something do's and don'ts

I have no idea what they are going to teach us in young woman's.
I am really hoping that it is something useful. Something we can use in the future.
So I have made a list of my Do's and Don'ts of things to include in personal progress.

Do's

  • How to plan, and prepare a months worth of meals
  • Budgeting
  • How to keep up on laundry
  • How to clean a house basics
  • How to keep a house clean
  • How to learn to be patient
  • taking care of children
  • How to take care of your body
  • Dating
  • How to maintain a marriage
  • How to make your own fitness and health program based on your personal needs
  • Self discover
  • Preparing for patriarchal blessings
  • Preparing for having a family

Don'ts

  • Definitions of anything
  • BUSY work

Wow that's a first. My famous list has more Do's then Don'ts they should be pretty well off! Super excited!

Faith in God

I have finaly conpleted faith in god.
The bishop gave me a necklace and I was so excited.
I am one step closer to being in young womans I absolutly can NOT wait as I have cleary stated before. I went up in sacremant meeting and the bishop shook my hand.
I bet that Personal Progress is even more fun than faith in god. Hopefully.
