Okay, so. Today is August 24th, and for kids everywhere that means that it was the first day of school. This simple sentence can evoke so many emotions. Like, for me, blah. I have mixed emotions. I'm excited to see all my friends, and start marching band, however, I am not excited about the work load. Junior year screams work. You work hard in your classes, you work hard on your SAT's, you work hard on your TAKS, you work hard in your job, work, work, work, and finally work. I've just got so much going on. I am one step closer to senior year though, and graduation, and about that I can't complain, and don't get me wrong its not like I don't have fun at school, but sometimes it can just get a little stressful. I do have one thing to look forward too this week: football game this Friday (GO FARMERS!) Its the highlight of my week. It should be so fun!! I can't wait to get back into the farmer spirit.
Schedule as follows:
Band
P/AP French 3
P/AP Physics
Interior design
I am so excited about interior design, even though I was suppost to be in SAT prep instead. I think i'm just going to keep interior design, hehe.

Last night the youth had a fireside with Elaine S. Dalton(Young Womans president over the entire church) speaking. Both her and her husband spoke. It was so amazing! They were here to celebrate the 50 years the church has been in Denton. We were so lucky they came to speak to us. This fireside was such a tender mercy. In the world today, it is so hard to feel special when everyone around you is doing things that you don't. Its easy to wonder what you're doing wrong, but as we gathered together last night, I realized I am doing things right. Even though the right thing is hard to do it is so worth doing. She said so much, I wish I could remember it all! One of the things she talked about was making sure you never do anything to be unworthy to have the spirit with you. She said you should say to yourself, when put into any situation that would compromise your worthiness, "I cannot do what you say, for I was born to be a queen." Wow. At that moment I felt like I could take on any challenge thrown at me. She also talked a lot about how we were the chosen generation, saved to be on the earth at this time. We are the ones that Peter talked about. She encourged us to read the Book of Mormon. She said it was for us, that it was reading like the newspaper, and we needed to have the strength it provides. She is just a beautiful, sweet woman who speaks with such power. After the actual fireside, she stood and we all lined up to meet her. She stood for so long, but was such a trooper. When I went up to meet her I just thanked her and told her she was an answer to so many prayers. She smiled, and said that she thinks that we planned virtue for our day, it is for us, and that she would be seeing us again. Wow. Talking about virtue made me realize that the man I am suppost to marry is worth waiting for. I might not go on all that many dates or have a steady boyfriend, but when I meet my bestfriend and he takes me to the temple none of that will matter. So even when I see the other couples or feel like I'm ugly, I can just remember that none of that will matter, the man I'm going to marry is well worth waiting for. I'll wait as long as I have to. It was quite an awesome experience♥

This Little lady is Sadie. I didn't expect I would love her already. I've been to plenty of friends houses where I usually stay as far away from their dogs as possible, going out of my way to mauver myself just right so it looked like I liked dogs, but just had better things to do than be in the same room with theirs. Thinking about it now I probably looked so stupid, but it was effective. Nobody wants to be the person label as the dog hater. I guess I would compare it to other peoples kids: I would never go up and kiss someone elses kid, but I would kiss my own. I would never kiss someone else dog, but I am free to love on my own dog. I love her. Welcome to the family Sadie♥

The Start of Something New

Where to start? Okay. Hi, the names Candice. This blog is a creative writing project for me. Mostly because i'm good with computers and writers cramp sucks. As you might have guessed, I don't really know where i'm going with this yet, but it could turn out pretty spectacular-even if just for me.
