Hinckley says so!

I apologize for not having a video of the Lagoon adventure. Wanna know why? Because we didn't go to Lagoon. The weather sucked. But to ease the pain, here is a short video.

Anyway, I've happened upon some quotes from President Hinckley that are absolutely wonderful. Thought I would share them with you.

“Aim high, but do not aim so high that you totally miss the target. What really matters is that he will love you, that he will respect you, that he will honor you, that he will be absolutely true to you, that he will give you the freedom of expression and let you fly in the development of your own talents. He is not going to be perfect, but if he is kind and thoughtful, if he knows how to work and earn a living, if he is honest and full of faith, the chances are you will not go wrong, that you will be immensely happy.” - Gordon B. Hinckley




"and so, my dear young men, you may not think seriously about it now. But the time will come when you will fall in love. it will occupy all of your thoughts and be the stuff of which your dreams are made. Make yourself worthy of the loveliest girl in all the world." President Gordon B. Hinckley

Summer Wish List

When summer ends and school begins, I always complain about how my summer sucked. This year...that is so not happening.

I WANT TO:

*Dance in an empty parking lot...or learn how to anyway. I can't dance. :/ (I've really dreamed of doing this for such a long time..it would be a bummer to never actually do it.)
*Learn how to rock climb better...which entails going more.
*Go to Snowbird and ride the alpine slide and zip line.
*Make cool videos
*Go to Ensign Peak (I've never gone!)
*Lagoon
*Go places I've never gone.
*Go to a waterpark.
*Stargazing
*Ice Skating
*Go to the new City Creek Center
*Make dinner with a special guy.
*Save as much money for school as I can.
*Go to Timpanogos Cave
*The Leonardo
*Fall in love (hahaha don't tease me k?)


Let's see how many I can accomplish. :) Here's to summer. Best summer of my life? I hope so...   :)


Update on 06/09/12:

Well, for it only being a month since school ended, I've got quite a bit crossed out. :)

Update on 07/07/12:

It's been just about a month since I updated this list, and I've only accomplished one thing. :/ But I have saved quite a bit for school, I just don't know how much I will be able to save in another month.

Update on 12/04/12

Now that it's winter I decided to update the list of accomplishments more. It was a very eventful summer and did most everything I wanted to. Best summer ever!

Dear Rachael,

Your question...well statement with an exclamation point, was:

My reply is:

This was in my fortune cookie on Friday:

And yes, I have been. Extremely lucky! Which is so not normal for me. Me? Lucky?

Oh shoot...does my fortune not come true if I tell people? Is this why I have been terminally blessed with bad luck? Because I share my wishes and such with people? 

So....tell you about my love life eh?

It's going pretty great actually. :)

Okay.... more like fabulous!

I know, I know...I'm being so vague. How about I make it up to you?

I'll make you a video about our Lagoon adventure we are going on next weekend! 

Good plan? Yes?

Oh, on a related note: I haven't taken any pictures, because I'm lame like that. But oh, there will be pictures.

As of Lately...

Life has been great! :)


-maybe one day I'll tell you about it.
