Guilt Trip bags are packed and ready.

So thanks Cam for making me feel really cool. I make this blog a joke by posting unserious comments, then you come out as if you're in testimony meeting with the First Presidency present. Real cool. I started to feel guilty for my immaturity, but then realized that is probably something you were goin for, so I unpacked my bags and decided not to take that guilt trip. haha. I did realize one thing tho. We might need to make a new blog page. One that is meant to be the opposite of what Cami wrote. one for the lighter side of life. That way it will be just like real life and when Cami gets going on a long story we can all just pretend like we were paying attention. "Mm hmmm." "Good." "Really?" "No way!!!" (Don't lie Cami, even you laughed at that. Man, this blog brings out the worst in me.)

But honestly Cami, that was an awesome shpiel. I'm kidding about the other blog. I think you are going out for all the right reasons, and I know you are going to be an amazing missionary. I think that the wrong reasons are the ones like going out cuz everyone else wants you to, or because your parents will pay for your school. Stuff like that. You are going for the right reasons, you just understand all the other stuff you will get in return. Because think about it, if you just wanted to learn the scriptures more, you would do that on your own without giving up two years. You would just focus on developing motherly traits in your everyday life. Just like you are already doing. Oh, and there aren't that many cool places that you would just leave it up to chance to get a cool 2 year vacation. You know that you need to go somewhere because there are people that you will help. And in exchange, that place will become the coolest place on the planet in your eyes. Besides the BYH. But yeah, you will be a great missionary. And please, don't let my teasing keep you from sharing your long, drawn out, boring, pointless stories with us. I mean, it never stopped you before. lol. Kidding again. Whit, put down your phone, you don't need to call me and tell me to stop being so mean. And although I direct my comments to you two females, Nate knows I do this for him. The inside jokes are just too much. TBISFP. Good luck with that one buddy. I know you know one of the words right away. haha. Now if you'll excuse me, i have to get back to the 360. I'm on a major winning streak.

AHHHHH you serious?


k so first of all thanks corey for that upbeat and inspiring blog... im actually just glad you wrote in it :) ha jk. i will take the crabby corey writting then nothing at all.

second, im kinda freakin out for some reason and i decided to write it on here :) becky just got her call and she is going to salt lake city temple square mission and i am so excited for her. i was talking to my brother the other day and we were talking about making sure you go on a mission for the right reasons... well that got me thinking. am i going for the right reasons? i mean honestly am i? and i still haven't totally come to a conclusion but i have realized a few things. in the back of my mind there may be a few reasons that i am going that is probably not the best reasons like.... selfish reasons. reasons to go cause i will benefit from it. like i will be able to learn so much about the gosepl and i will learn the scriptures better and it will be so good for my kids. and i might get to go someplace cool. but all of those reasons if they were the only ones would probably not be the best reasons but they aren't the only ones. i want to go on a mission because i have become more and more aware that people don't know about the gospel and if they do they don't understand how great it is!!!!!! they don't know how to get closer to God and they don't understand how incredibly amazing and filling repentence and the atonement is! i had an aha moment about repentence a few days ago and it was basically that repentence and the Atonement is a pattern. its ok to have to be forgiven for your sins. its ok to mess up because once you mess up and are able to fix it your relationship with Christ becomes even stronger! i was always so mad at myself when i messed up and now that i have realized that it ok as long as i use Christ to repent than its suppose to happen. in the preach my gospel manual on page 6 it says somehing like it is the only way of living that will bring peace of conscience and enable heavely father's children to return to live in his presence! its the only way to have peace of conscience! its a stepping stone that i will have to continually have to keep stepping on until i can look at Christ when he comes and say i am clean! and so i realized that if i have been a member of the church for my whole life and i have just come to the realization of the importance of repentence. how lost some people must feel to not know anything and have the conscience unknowingly weighing on them! so that is why i am serving a mission! i want people that are lost or confused to be let in on the amazing gosepl! or if they do know about it they can understand it more! so wherever i serve even if its in some place all the people are members, they still have something to learn and if the Lord will help me i will teach it to them :)

so wow that was a huge shpiel. kinda got on my box. it was just a thought that i had that i really wanted to tell you guys. so point of the blog i am so excited to serve a mission and it doesn't matter where i go i will be able to help people and thats what is important.

so on another note, corey, if you want more people to be able to read this it can happen just let me know. and...... if you want me to change the background i can do that to. pink just fit to well :)

k im going to go hope that was an interesting enough blog for you corey. and whit feel free to correct any spelling mistakes i don't ever care to much about them anyway :) love you guys!

wow neg. nelly!!

corey...if u took the time to look at EVERYTHING that was posted instead of just what was written you would see where the spelling mistake was made! and cami iceland is pretty and almost as cold as utah so i vote u can go there! i have never been there and would LOVE to pick u up from there! nate if u go pro in way over there ull just have to send pics...lol jk i doubt they even have a pro league there! 


so ne way corey YES u are RUDE!

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah. Let me vent. Scott Lowe style.

So I'm here, finally. Sorry it took so long. I guess I didn't have anyone to come pick me up, so I had to walk. What?! That made no sense. Kind of like this whole blog thing. Kind of like Whit correcting her spelling of Beyonce when there is no previous misspellation. I hate blogging. I hate the half of this group that is in paradise. I hope you get called to Iceland Cami. Nate, if you go pro next year, I hope you go pro to Siberia. But I mostly hope you don't go pro. Sorry, it was just thanksgiving, so I should be more positive. (I'm positive you're an idiot.) I'm grateful that Thanksgiving is over, so people will come back to Provo. It was almost as bad here as Hawaii was during Christmas Nate. Not kidding. I got some good hours of Madden in. No Burnout tho.

Whew, glad that is out of my system. Now, I don't know what to say. Why is this blog only open to the four of us? Can anyone read it? We talk to each other almost every day. What am I supposed to say on here? I guess start with the facts, huh? I'm unemployed, so i donate plasma twice a week. $70 last week, oh yeah. I live with Blair and Dallas, who live in the math lab, so I'm gettin close with their roommates. Seeing as how I'm unemployed, I have no cash to spend on any girls, which explains why Whit and I spend so much time together. Haha. That was a joke whit. I know you just said, "RUDE!!" And Cami just went, "Ohhhh." Totally kidding Whit. I'm still in Scott Lowe mode. But yeah, no new girls. Nate, you know how we thought Blair and Dallas would know all the girls, judging by their popularity in hawaii? Yeah, we were wrong. Blair spends all his time with Plymouth, and Dallas might be gay. haha. Call and ask him about this quote, "Corey, I would love to take you into Buckle and just dress you up in their clothes." True story.

well, I guess that's a good start. I hope each of us got a laugh, cuz i laughed at all of you as I wrote. Man, I feel a lot better after this. It was kinda therapeutic. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to get back to IM'ing all of you on facebook.

Can't wait to see what's blogged next.
