When peeps I don't know just get me.

Happy Sunday y'all! It's been forever and so many things have happened these days that I need to document on here forever so expect some new chitchat this week. I've been meaning to post these things forever but I'm all about that lazy/tired girl life over here so like delayed reaction for life yo. For now, check these things out and cherish this great quote from the 2015 general conference for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Pretty sure I only have like 2, MAYBE 3 friends.
Please return my love, kthanksbye.
Gimme love por favor.
Food is my love language.
Maybe this will help me be a better journal writer? Fingers crossed.

Children of Light.

"As a child of God, you're a child of light."

The Skinny on the THM.

So the past year and a half of my life has been spent bringing mis queridos hermanos y hermanas mas cerca a Cristo for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as a missionary. It was the greatest and most challenging time of my life to date but I would not trade in the experiences and trials that the past 18 months threw at me for anything! I love the gospel so much and hope that all those that I taught will remember the importance of living the basic principles of the gospel and will put into practice daily scripture study, praying, and attending church meetings weekly as well as obeying God's commandments. I've learned that doing these simple and at times seem insignificant things actually help us to be spiritual safe and protected. Here are some of my favorite photo memories:

So I've been released from my service as a full time missionary and have given my coming home talk and just reported to the high council leaders today...let summer commence at full speed yo! (I'm back for good y'all)

I Couldn't Have Called It Better Myself.

Remember that time that I moved from Provo and then blogged from Wyoming about a month ago and the world pretty much assumed I died on the road to California? (Unless you instacreep on me and know that I so live on there) Hi, I be back. Since I got back to the lovely California sun, I've been shopping my heart out, receiving 5 million packages and things in the mail, and eating all the time. I recently received the most important and exciting mail I will probably ever get in my entire life. It came all official like and from my church headquarters all the way in SLC. I got my call and then made my family wait until all that could be home were there to open it. I thought my mom was going to rip it open behind my back but she restrained herself. I was oh so relieved when I opened it and saw that I would be going to Houston, Texas. That I could so handle (heat, good food and urbanization...I'm so in) I just hope I can catch a glimpse of my idol Beyonce or her rocking sister Solange while I'm there. We won't even mention the fact that I'm going to be speaking the espanol which I'm pretty sure is my most loved language. Being fluent will provide me with so many opportunities post mission even if it is just creeping on other peoples convos. I'm so excited to join the ranks of hermanas come December! 

 I will need to locate a postcard like this to send home.

 I love big cities like nothing else. Can we say shopping spree once I'm released?!

This is darling. I love Houston already and I'm not even there yet!

Monday DP's should be mandatory.

Yesterday was just the kind of Monday that I needed to make my week be even more rockstar than usual. First shout out to the little brosef Dos on his 22nd year of life. I finally got my amazon gift card and ordered some cookbooks I've been lusting over for months. For FHE, we went to this assisted living home for young adults and they had a dance. It was pretty much everything I love about dances combined into one fab event. I saw some other EFY people there and that always leads to a joyous experience...pssht. I love that moment when you are dancing on the dance floor and feel self conscious because you have no friends and then all of a sudden your friends come in out of nowhere and chaos happens! This happened to me and I went from awkward friendless dancing girl to watch out Beyonce, I run the world (err...dance floor? yep.) We whooped it up for 2 hours and I loved seeing people's inhibitions fly out the window while they got down and dirty on the dance floor (Not to dirty though...this be the 801 yo) After dancing, I went to the market for much needed supplies (sour licorice belts and watermelon jelly bellys...what the unhealthy?) and since I was out, Yogurtland sucked me in to buying froyo even though I had Ben and Jerry waiting on me at home #sorryhombres. I had quite the feast while watching Beauty and the Beast and then killed myself doing arms and a squat challenge. I partied like it was my birthday and want to have a dance party every day now because it was tres fun. If only Nikki and Katherine would have been there too, it would have gone to even higher levels of awesomeness. 

These girls wish they went as hard as my girls and I went tonight. I think some people may have judged my dancing/wondering who this other side of Angela is...whatevs #alreadyoverit

Sunday Reflections.

Today was great for about 500 different reasons but I'll just list a few:
-I finally have my fav gummy bears again 
-afternoon naps
-church was rockstar (JC leading music with a baton and holster for said baton attached to belt #priceless)
-smoothie breakfast
-leftover pizza for dinner is the best
-actually talking to people I don't know at ward prayer
-finding out cute boy did stay for summer and looked dang good working his red pants...feel free to #holla@yagirl ANYTIME!

Plans for the Weekend.

Today was the birthday of Father Auten and I called him in the early hours to wish his day well. How I love those parents of mine! The activities committee met and had a snowflake making fiesta while listening to some Justin Bieber christmas jams. The best is when the boys decided to change all the lyrics to the songs and it was all kinds of ridiculousness. Last night, I went out with Shellie and crew to deliver gifts for the Angel tree program and it was so fun. I had only wished more people had answered their phones since we only went to one house! We got to see the pictured house in its decked out glory. I'm just loving the season right now! My friday night will be spent going to the temple and then indulging in the 12 days of yumminess at yogurtland. Please have cran rasp tart again. Also on the agenda is an evening of christmas movie watching and craft making with the aid of my dear friend pinterest. Saturday is our ward Christmas breakfast at 9 am! Kill me now for being on the activities committee and having to go early. At least we get to wear our pj's. Even if we weren't supposed to, I would have rocked them anyways. Christmas light looking might be on the agenda too. I love me some christmas lights!

Hurry up October.

I just want a reasonable excuse to go buy 5 million pumpkins to use as decoration for...myself. Also if the "I'm Ron Burgundy?" quote can get out of my head, that would be fab. Relief Society broadcast was rockstar. Forget me nots and visiting teaching are my current loves. Good games of the weekend went to Sirs Brownie and Dick and to the gorgeous In n Out boy's car. Also EJY can answer Shell's calls so I can stop creeping DR on the facebook and just creep him in real life. Please and thanks. High 5 to myself for making my apt smell like brownies.

Live Every Week like...

EFY + Shark Week = greatest week of my life.

Dos Mas.

I have been the worst at writing this summer. I barely have a life outside of EFY but the countdown is on. 2 more weeks until I can have a life again. Well I guess after a magical trip to the happiest place on earth.

What Happened to my Weekend?

Well I survived EFY training (free subway, J Dawgs and Cafe Rio might have eased the lengthy-ness of it all). Last night, Kamil Vish and I saw Tangled. Holy crap, I almost died from cuteness overload! I will need to by that when it comes out.

The relationship between the horse and Ryder killed me. Musu and I were laughing throughout the whole movie and crying by the end.

Procrastination Station.

I really should have majored in procrastination. I would totally have my doctorate in that biz already. At least my ECE is paying off by helping me make ridiculously rad rhymes. What is the best way to procrastinate when you have a lesson to work on for tomorrow you ask? Shredding a bowl full of queso at 5 to midnight. I love me some spicy cheddar for the midnight munchies. Can we talk about the fact that I have 14+ hours of EFY training this weekend? Good thing I love EFY.

Sometimes It's Worth It.

Remember how it decided to rain today right before I had to go to mutual?

Awesome, I hate rain.

Remember how after mutual it decided to snow and my car was covered?

Double awesome right? Too bad I hate snow even more.

Remember how I forgot to scrape my window and at the drive-thru, snow came pouring into my car and all over me?

Triple offense I say!

I guess it was worth it though for these little babies...t-t-t-t-t- tasty, tasty!

Accomplish Much?

Besides the usual daily activities of cleaning stuff and writing scathing notes, texting and eating my weight in frozen gummy bears and sweet potato tortilla chips (Seriously, so good. I had to force the bag out of my own hands.), here's how my Wednesday went down:

Spaghetti with homemade meatballs and a mountain of cheese on top. Needless to say, I ate at 3 and wasn't hungry again all night.

I might have watched 4+ episodes today instead of reading neglected books para clase...yikes.
Ahaha, love the writing on the bottom of this note. I'm reading leisurely and not academically...fail again.

At least I read my scriptures today right? That deserve some brownie points I think.
