1. I got accepted to BYU-I! Now I know that is not such a great accomplishment... but it is nice to know that I am not that 5% or so that is to dumb (or whatever the reason) to get accepted. =)2. I got a really good grade on my English research paper that I put my sweat, blood, and tears into! For those of you who don't know what I am talking about, my English class had to write a 16 page research paper for our Senior Project. I researched color psychology (which is really fascinating, by the way) and got it all done. I spent a whole lot of time on it... practically died writing it... and now it is all done and I never have to think of that agian!
3. I got a dorm with my best friend! I am so excited to go to college and now I get to share that experience with one of the best people in the world!
4. I got my driver's licence! I kept putting it off for the longest time until my sister left, and there was no one to drive me anywhere... so I had to get my licence. So, now I have it and I can go where ever I want when ever (with my parents' permission... of course)
5. We got a dog! Isis, our wonderful Great Dane died last year and now we finally got a new dog. I still miss Isis, but you can't live well without a dog to play with. Our new dog is a Vizsla, which is a wonderful kind of dog... if you have a lot of patience. Maggie took forever to potty train... and she still pees on the carpet a little. But she's sweet and loyal. I can take her on a walk and never need to use her leash. She stays near me all the time.
6. I lost a whole lot of weight. For as long as I can remember, I have been overweight. I finally found a diet that helped me and I lost 50lbs! Pants are so much easier to find now... it's amazing!7. I made a new friend, invited her to church, and got her baptized! =) I am so glad to have brought her to the truth. The church has brought so much happiness to her life... and I am so happy for her!
And of course, there are a lot of good things that happened. But I am not going to list them all... =)
