Wonderful Sunday!! :D



I know this is a pretty small picture, but it has a picture of me with my Viola that I Love so dearly! hehehe! She's my baby! I got to play her with my Ward Choir! We did Lead Kindly Light(pg. 97 in the current LDS Hymn book) I played a solo between vs. 2 and 3! It was awesome because my ward found out something about me they never knew before! haha! Actually I don't know what they all think, they think I'm pretty amazing because I have a Calling that I Love like crazy and it keeps me sane in Life's activities! ;) Anyways, It was so fun! I Love the new chapels! They have such great accoustics that I feel so big and I can play as loudly as I want to! Most people don't know what a Viola is, and when they hear it, they are amazed that it isn't a Violin! Trust me Viola is a lot different than the Violin, it is Bigger than the Violin, as well as it sounds lower(it's an alto instrument like the Clarinet, the French horn, and the Alto Sax). Imagine this k. pretend that the string instruments are humans in a choir. the First and Second violins would be the 1st and 2nd Sopranos, the Violas would be the Altos, the Cellos are the Tenors, and the String bass is of course the Bass! :D And also the Viola has a different Clef.




This is the Viola or the Movable "C" Clef movable? How? Well you know what a music staff looks like on the piano? Well imagine the C clef on there. if the point of that clef is in the middle it's called the Alto Clef, if it is hitting where the Note "D" would be with the Treble Clef(if you don't know where that is it is the second line down from the top on the staff when you're reading treble clef), that is called the Tenor Clef, If the C clef is below the staff, it is called the Baritone clef. Are you bored yet? LOL Anyways, let me get back to what I was talking about! :D


Anyways, I got a lot of attention today! And it was a lot of fun! I Just Love my Ward! Orem University 7th ward is pretty much amazing! :D It was Ward Conference today! And let me tell ya! It was so amazing! :D I needed to hear a lot of what was said in Sacrament meeting, Sunday School, and Relief Society! The Stake Relief Society President is pretty much amazing! She talked about different ways that Heavenly Father speaks to us. And she mentioned some of the basic ones... One of them was what the world would call a "Random Thought", a strong feeling around your heart, the Chills, and kind of a shower type deal up and down your back. And others! And then she talked about her Son that she Adopted from Haiti about a month ago! And that took like 27 months for them to get him and he's 2 years old. And so dang CUTE(she brought a picture!!! :D) Anyways, she told us to look up a devotional talk that Jeffery R. Holland gave in March of 1999 Cast Not Away Therefore your ConfidenceAnd She then mentioned in closing the best Quote I've ever heard that I have needed to hear and probably my most favorite quote ever!! :D

It's extremely important for you to believe in yourselves, not only for what you are now, but for what you have the power to become. Trust in the Lord as he leads you along. He has things for you to do that you won't know about now, but that will be revealed later. If you stay close to Him, you will have some great adventures. The Lord will unfold your future bit by bit.
Isn't that so dang Awesome?!! I totally needed to hear that cause most of my life I've felt really down with my self esteem, the only time I remember that I had pretty good self esteem was when I was a senior in High School, I was in the best shape I could ever be in! I had a lot of compliments on not only my hair but of how good I looked in everything I wore! I want so much to get back to that! Feeling so good about myself, and feeling like that I am actually beautiful with out having to tell myself 10 times in the mirror every single day! I want to be able to confidently say that I am beautiful! I don't want people to just compliment on my hair, but how I look in general(you know what I mean?) I know I'm beautiful, I'm just not confident in myself, I haven't been confident in myself, and if I can only remember one time I was actually confident enough to be like wow! I can handle this! I like they way that I actually look and feel. NO BODY Has called me fat or even degraded my body, I'm starting to go back to my old self to what I looked like before Swim Team, and I don't really like that Idea! :( I want to be able to feel confident with out having to feel like to wear a jacket because it hides my blobe in the middle! :P Even though there are people out there that Love me for who I am and not for what I look like, I'm just very self caucious, I need to motivate myself to just go and get fit! Some how get a membership somewhere (like gold's gym) and go Swimming laps! Eat more healthy foods! And defeat the Cravings! haha! Or even just have someone with me to just push me to achieve my goals. Now, I'm just rambling. but yeah, welcome to the Story of my life! Miss Low self-esteem girl... haha! Trust me I'll be changing that whether I get fit or not! I'm doing a lot of activities with my ward and what not! totally look forward to it! I just wonder if I should get my inhaler so I can have the extra help with the Athletic enduce asthma? hmm... I'm pretty good in the water, I know how to control my breathing in the water... but when I run, jog, and what not... I have the hardest time controling it... after playing basketball or volleyball(which you hardly do anything on except if you play queens court) I don't really have a hard time! I'm going to end on a happy note!! hehehe! My stake is starting to do a Volleyball tournaments on Thursdays through the month of march on to the first part of April! So totally excited! I'm totally going to do it! Volleyball is so much fun! I have fun playing it! I'm not really that competitive I just want to have fun! :D So I'm totally excited for that! Besides it'll be a distraction and somewhat a therapy to coop with Aunt Delene in the Hospital. :D Oh man! Playing my Viola felt so good today! I Love playing it! I don't think I could live with out it! My Viola is totally my life right now! I practiced it like forever long yesterday because I didn't want to think about things way too much... and I needed to relieve some stress, Oh I look forward to playing my viola again hopefully tomorrow even if it is for just 5 minutes! :D Especially where when I get home I have about a half hour rest then I'm off to FHE! Tomorrow I'm going to see the Princess and the Frog at Movies 8! So totally excited! ;) I haven't seen that movie yet... I heard it's pretty cute, I heard it's kinda cheezy. But I'll give it a try! :D
