Senior year is....

Almost over.I can't believe it but it felt like yesterday that i started this last year of high school and now there is only 30 days of school left until GRADUATION!That is such a crazy thought.I am ready for college and a new page to turn in my life but yet at the same time it is a crazy thought to think that i am going to be done with high school.

Mexico 2010

This year i went to Mexicali, Mexico over spring break.It was my second year going and i loved it sooooo much.It was awesome,amazing,fun,wonderful,emotional.Just so much fun.I am tired and loving sleeping in a bed now that i am back home but at the same time i wish i was back.It was so peaceful and serene there compared to normal life.There was one night that just stood out to me the most and well the most amazing thing was wednesday night where we went to a church service and in the middle of the service our leader eliecer said if anyone has any troubles on there hearts right now just stand up and we will pray for you and we didn't say anything and i stood up and a couple other people stood up and i started crying and a lady came up to me that spoke spanish and english and she hugged me and prayed for me in spanish then in english and then eliecer gave a really really good sermon about generations and after that all of the team went up and layed hands on eliecer and prayed for him and then eliecer started crying and then everyone in our group was crying and then i went up to emily musson at the end of the service crying and she prayed for me and yeah it was just a very powerful emotional night.It was probally the most amazing night ever.Gods presence was there and moving through everyone in that church that night.

I am going to start doing devotionals starting today. I am so happy about that I am hoping to get more in tune with God and just i am hoping that it helps me live in the moment and just love life. Which recently i have found that living in the moment is hard and i just need to keep thinking ok God i know its hard but i know what it feels like i know your always there helping me through life and just guiding me in the path that i need to be on.

Shmaim post song

Living in Shmaim-Post(sung to the beat of Living on a prayer)

Once upon a time

Not so long ago

Aimers used to live in Shmaim-post

Aimers used to hike

They've been down and up...its tough,so tough

Kitch staffers work in the kitchen all day

Working for the campers,they bring home the memories

For-ever,For-ever

They say we gotta hold on to what we got

Cause it doesn't make a difference

If we like it or not

Weve got each other and thats a lot

For-ever - well give it a shot

Whooah, were half way there

Whooah, living in Shmaim-post

All day long - we'll make it I swear

Whooah, living in Shmaim-post

Accommos got there four awesome trucks

Now Aimers are learning how to live

at home- so tough, its tough

Aimers dream of living life

When they cry when they leave

Leaders whisper its going to be okay- at home

They say we gotta hold on to what we got

Cause it doesn't make a difference

If we like it or not

Weve got each other and thats a lot

For-ever - well give it a shot

Whooah, were half way there

Whooah, living in Shmaim-post

All day long - we'll make it I swear

Whooah, living in Shmaim-post

We've got to hold on ready or not

You live for the moment when its all that youve got

Whooah, were half way there

Whooah, living in Shmaim-post

All day long - we'll make it I swear

Whooah, living in Shmaim-post

Whooah, were half way there

Whooah, living in Shmaim-post

All day long - we'll make it I swear

Whooah, living in Shmaim-post

Living In the Moment

This summer i learned what it is like to live in the moment and just be myself and love it life. It is something i have been working on for a long time and has been a hard thing for me to comprehend because having never lived really in the moment before i had no idea what it was supposed to feel like or anything. This summer when i was up at Camp i learned what living in the moment felt like by experiencing it. I was at church and after the sermon i just felt so peaceful and just happy. I had never felt that way before and i just knew that it was god showing me look this is what it feels like to slow your life down and live in the moment. I loved it so much. It changed my life and now everyday i live life to its fullest. I don't live for the past or the future i live for today. Just one day at a time. I thank god everyday for letting me feel that sense of calmness and serenity. It is something i will never forget and cherish that moment forever.
