So I have this thing with my best friend Melissa.... That whenever we hang out its "THE BEST DAY EVERY!!!!" or in this case BEST WEEKEND EVER!!
So definitely had the chance to go down to Utah this weekend which was SO needed. I really just had to get out of the Rexburg bubble. I got to see my good friend Logan this weekend! and then just hang out with Melissa all weekend. YES! We got to hang out... go to FORK FEST MUSIC FESTIVAL in American Fork where they had 3 stages with live music and awesomeness.
These are the friends that I always want to have in my life. These are the people that I will never forget about and who have changed my life for the better.
So thats my updated weekend. Definitely dreaded coming back but this week has actually gone by so fast its crazy.

This is what We NeEd
Ah what a crazy week. I must say it has been quite adventurous. I got to meet our new client this week! I will be a consultant for his new start up business helping with market analysis and due diligence. Might sound boring but I love it!
Let me just say I have been doing so much thinking about what I want out of life, the type of person I want to be, and the type of people I want in life. There are so many little quotes and saying about life and love but do we truly listen to them or follow them? I dont really know.I was listening to this song today and really liked the chorus lyrics.I know this might sound ridiculous but this is the person that I want, these are the types of friends I want. Yes this is talking about a relationship but I want to apply it to everyone. I have seen so much lately that people today are landsliding towards selfishness. I have even seen it in myself at times. When was the last time we went out of our way for somebody just because? When was the last time someone showed you that they cared by a simple act of kindness? I really wonder if we surround ourselves with the right people.
I know the type of person that I want to become, and I know the type of people I want in my life.
People who rejoice with you when youre happy,
who are proud of you when you succeed and let you know it,
who cry with you when your heart hurts,
who accept you for who you are and never try to change that,
who inadvertently make you want to be a better person
People who call you just because they care and want to hear about your day
People who respect you in every manner- emotionally and verbally and physically
who are understanding and patient with you
who only want to make you happy with no anterior motives.
who dont start drama and fights
who trust you and forgive you of your past faults
People who still love you for your weaknesses
People who show you they care by word and deed
people who adore you, love you and are just good to you... and for you
This is what I want. I know its rare to find these people but they are out there and I have been so blessed to have just a few of them in my life.
No matter how hard it is, be a better person, treat people with respect deserving or not. Be more selfless, and be kinder

AH!
So this week has been interesting to say the least.... It kind of hit me that Im really GRADUATING this semester. That's it. School will be over. Good bye comfort zone hello real world. Can I really do this!? Im kind of freakin out here!
This weekend was much needed though. Finally got to take a trip down to Utah for General Conference and it was just incredible. So spiritually uplifting and just what I needed. The one thing I love about Conference is that it keeps me in check with the person that I am. How much I want to be better. I have come to realize that I can be pretty selfish in my life. I dont want to be. I just want to be happy, yes... look out for myself... but be there for others too. But I had SO much fun with my roommates this weekend :)
