“Mary wished to say something very sensible, but knew not how.” 

Well, pretty much the perfect description of finals.  Wishing to say/ come up with the right answer, but failing  to.  I have never been a good test taker, and finals probably won't be too great.  I have put some good time into studying, but I fear the results won't be the B grades I need. 

My life has been topsy-turvy the last couple of days.  So many opportunities and so much time.  How do I prove to the guy upstairs I want to do what he wants when he gives me so many different choices to make?  Hard to say.  I guess that is what prayer is for.

It snowed today.  I couldn't be happier!

  Since this is a part journal I might as well share my thoughts on something from the past or the present, so the future can more adequately grasp me when I was young (ah the thought of being old is so far away!)  So here it goes... memory #497:

My maternal Grandmother and Grandfather are some of my favorite people in the whole wide world.  I have so many positive happy memories of both of them.  Grandma making me tuna fish sandwiches while me and Ryan watched Dragon Ball Z on the edge of the carpet, quilting-endlessly, and running around town in the old car to get groceries.  My favorite memory was playing solitaire and Taipei with her for hours, teaching me all the techniques and tricks.  We would play for hours.   Grandpa is/was always a cusser and I always remember Mom saying to NEVER repeat what he said, but I can't recall too many memories without a word or two involved.... Whether it be watching the news with the volume as loud as it could go, or going to Neals to work on the bleepidy-bleap car, Grandpa was always entertaing. Both of them gave everything they had to us, and even though they weren't perfect they were major factors in making my childhood wonderful.  I love them so much, and I cherish this time with them.  I am so excited to be sealed to them, and I cannot believe how ungrateful I have been to them.  They have made me me and I couldn't be more appreciative for giving me an outlook on hard work, and love above all!  LOVE YOU GUYS!
