i don't even know what to do with my life.
ok actually lets rewind.
2 weeks ago today i met with my stake president.
he cleared me for going on a mission and my papers were sent in.
knowing that the brethren review it on friday i gave my self 2-4 weeks for it to get here.
last week no call.
this morning my mom text me asking me when my classes were and when, if my call came, she could call me.
my last class ended at 10:50.
at 10:51 i get a call from my mom...
ITS HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!
hoots and hollers, squeals, butterflies and a whole slew of emotions ran through my body.
to put it in two words would be.
excited and nervous.
then the plethora of texts went out.
here are some responses:
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - ashley russell.
party i can't wait!!!!!!! - lindsay savage.
Yikes! I can't wait! -sue stone.
congrats brooke. - josey walker.

squeals and screams and laughter - christie hurst. aaron johnson. amber midgley.

i'm peeing my pants over here for you! that one little letter will determine your next 2 years of life basically and i'm sooooo excited! - megan mickelsen.
that is awesome. i am fired up for you! - tyler savage.
plus a whole plethora of facebook "likes."
i have one thing to say to all of you.
thank you! thank you for your support it really means the world to me. i couldn't ask for better friends and family! i love all of you!
after texts/f-book messages went out there was the realization that i can't open it until friday.
yes i have to sit in class all of thursday and friday morning before i can even see the envelope.
this will be the longest 2 days of my life.
but don't worry i will stay busy hopefully.
i now have a party to plan.
and i must keep myself occupied with school things.
speaking of the party here are some details. {destined to change.}
you get two guesses one state side and one international.
opening will happen between 8- 8:30 to wait for everyone to arrive.
i will then proceed to open the call. and tears will follow.
after tears and such we will have dessert.
everyone is invited.
let me know if you want to come so we know who to wait for.
if you can't come at least predict where i am going to go.
yes there will be a prize for the winner!!!
i don't know what it is yet but it will probably be cool.
you need to be present to obtain your prize.
but if you don't care about coming or a prize still predict.
i want your guess on my map!
