I should of wrote about experience two months ago, but I just kept putting it off. So, I though I should tell this story before my memory fails me anymore than it already has and I can't remember all the details. Well, this happened on the way home from California on March 28th, 2009.
I was driving home with my sister Chloe, her daughter...

Cecilia's 1st lost tooth!

Cecilia lost her first tooth on Monday!! It is quite a funny story.
Her tooth has been loose for a while now and it got to the point where I am sure Jason or I could of pulled it out, but she did not want us to try. When she woke up Monday morning and we were eating breakfast it looked like her tooth was hanging half off and I a...

A Great Saturday
PoeticIntensity
Yesterday was a good day. Yes, yesterday was most definitely a good day.
My great friend Scott Morris's father died last week and they held the viewing and funeral yesterday. I also had our annual concert with my band, Plan B.
My day started at 6:45am (a time, I would really rather not see for my entire life), and consisted of dri...

Okay... Wow.. A pretty huge amount of stuff has been going on. I've been writing about it in my personal journal, but some of the stuff shouldn't be public, so I'm writing this as a supplement for those who care.

PoeticIntensity
I've been pretty much stuck 100% in the Linux world now for around 5 years. I bought myself a Cowon iAudio X5 media player based on its compatibility with Linux (and its complete lack of anything DRM related) - and I've loved it for the 2.5 years I've had it.
I also had a blackberry which I had used for 2 years, thanks to Nature's Way. ...

So last night was the big Mormon Prom, me and my boyfriend Sean looked great! I had spent all day getting my hair and stuff done, and it really paid off in the end. Even though I was running like 15 minutes late to where Sean has wanted to take some pictures.
It took two and a half hours to do my hair, so I didn't get to leave in time. So I told ...

Alma : 26 - Rejoicing

Man... I can only imagine what Ammon's joy truly felt like. After reading D&C 18:15-16, I begin to see why Ammon fainted due to overwhelming joy so many times throughout his mission. Dedicating a full chapter to nothing but the rejoicing of Ammon seems perfectly reasonable.
I always thought his brothers were kind of rude to ...

While reading that experience, my mind immediately turned back to a very similar experience I had when beginning my mis...
