The Infinitely Crazy Life.

Maybe I should change that to the title of my blog, that seems to be the title of my life the majority of the time. As per usual I have been insanely busy. Late nights, early mornings, and never stopping. I have made an effort to enjoy my life right now, I know I need to have an eternal perspective and need to make sure that things are organized but I was so concerned that I wasn't enjoying the blessings I have in my life right now. Especially with the crazy fiesta Alyssa and I put on, I needed to focus. Today was the first day off that I have had that I actually got to just relax, there was nothing that I needed to make sure got done, or freak out about.

So last weekend was incredibly nuts! I seriously have never been that stressed in my life. Exams were no where close to that. I really thought I was very organized. I have a clipboard which consisted of the purchases we made, confirmed people. billet list (with name, number of spaces, gender, address, and phone number), To Do list, copy of scavenger hunt (done by Alyssa), floor plan for the dance, diagram of how the lights should be, and all the receipts. I had a To Do list going for at least 2 months before and I thought I had everything done. I spend Thursday running around picking up groceries (FREAK food is expensive) and setting up, and I spend Friday day running around with Charmaine finishing setting up and getting last minute things. A couple weeks previous I found the speakers and all the chords for it so we could use the awesomeness for the dance. Friday I thought I was going to die as we couldn't find the chords. I seriously could of broken down at any minute. Apparently even if people tell me that I need to calm down, IT DOESN'T WORK! I am incapable of calming down when I feel there is a crisis. Eventually we found everything, everything got set up and Charmaine and I cruised home so that we could get changed and go back in. The dance was awesome, other then the fact that people drank the punch like there was no tomorrow- I refilled the bowl like 5 times!

After the dance we stopped at Boston Pizza. Due to the fact that I was dead tired I have a dessert. It was delicious. Other then Charmaine and Alyssa, who I will go into detail later, these 3 people are the ones who kept me sane!

Kristine, Luis and Adam!

They seriously kept me busy the past couple weeks and kept me from going crazy. There has been some dance parties, movies, Donairs, and trips to the beach.

Back to Saturday. Saturday I could not wake up. I was so tired it was crazy. I got there and thanks to everyone's help the rest of the day went fairly smoothly, minus the rain which SUCKED! I was hoping that it wouldn't for the scavenger hunt but I guess not everything can go as planned. The meals went super well, I was really pleased. The lesson done by Bishop Pilling was awesome! Minus the fact that I was super tired I highly enjoyed it. I asked him to do the lesson on how we can continue the feeling of institute and such into the summer. I was very happy with the way he went with it. After cleaning everything up I drove Charmaine home, walked into my house, looked at mom and told her I wasn't home. I walked into my room and fell asleep faster then I think I ever have. After just the right amount of time I woke up and then babysat my cousins. They are so cute! The twins were asleep so that was super easy, so I got to chill with Ella. She is so freakin' adorable.

She was quite the fan of the camera and sunglasses. 

The craziness did not end there. Sunday was good, I was a bit more rested and we had an awesome fireside with Bishop Pilling again. I loved it! I'm not going to go into detail about what it was about but it was definitely well worth the time. Also, after church Shuling ran in and gave me a pair of shoes that she was giving to me because she is moving. I was stunned! First I wasn't sure if I would ever wear them, but I can definitely do it. I have a few outfits lined up that I can wear them with. 

After working from 10-6 yesterday I chilled at home, and then decided to take an adventure to the beach. It's weird how kind of creepy the beach can be when there is only a few people. It is so calming though, the sounds and the breeze. Only bad things, it is super dark..... and getting sand out of your hair is super hard! It took forever! Though it was loads of fun.

Today I got to sleep in and relax. Boy was I relieved. I finally got to watch the season finale of Criminal Minds which was AWESOME! I was so glad I was finally able to watch it. I took my time showering because I never had to worry about anyone else banging on the door. I had to house to myself and I needed it. 

Lastly... I wanted to thank Alyssa and Charmaine for all their help. Alyssa you did a ton and I am so grateful. I definitely couldn't of survived this weekend without you. Charmaine, seriously I think I would of died of stressed related causes if it wasn't for you. You guys are the best!!! 

Also.. Happy belated birthday to Alyssa. Though I already wished you happy birthday I wanted to say it again. I know we have been through a lot but I totally wanted to let you know that I hope this year is better then the last. Craziness will come but I hope we can always be friends. Check out her blog.. its pretty sweeett. www.alyssafraser.blogspot.com. (cheesie.. I know)
