New Blog

Hi everyone, since I am always changing my blog and what not, I thought I would change it to Wordpress this time...

So check out my new blog: Life with Alli at lifewithalli.wordpress.com. Forgive me for the multiple fonts, I just simply imported my Blogger blog to Wordpress. I will see how I like it.

I love Google and Blogger, but I thought it was time for a change. Who knows, maybe I will be back to Blogger. I just don't know!

It's Friday, Friday

Well, another week has gone by and I am still busy and working hard.

Last night I facilitated a meeting in a room that I didn't know existed (it's a hidden room in the Natural Resources building). I got to run back and forth between the building and the basement of the Eccles Conference Center to try and find a key that didn't exist. It was great fun.

This weekend will be spent doing homework, laundry, cleaning, going to Stake Conference, and lots of other activities. I hope everyone has a great weekend!

One of Those Days

Today has been one of those days. You know, those days that starts out rough and then you decide to change your attitude for the benefit of your own health, otherwise you'd be a grump all day? Yep. One of those days.

First, I can't seem to fall asleep before 1:00am anymore. And then my body decides on how much sleep I need to get without consulting my schedule. Silly.

Second, to go along with the first point, somehow I managed to continuously press the snooze button on my alarm which resulted in me waking up an hour later than I had planned. Gotta love alarm clocks.

Third, I may have a new job opportunity. We will see.

Fourth, I was told I have "deep blue eyes" today. Why yes, yes I do have blue eyes. I have had them since birth, thank you for noticing. And that they are "mesmerizing." I had to chuckle at that compliment.

Fifth, life is busy, but it's good.

It's Only Wednesday?

I guess it is only Wednesday according to my calendar.

Why is it that the first half of the week goes by so slow but the second half flies by? Not fair.

I am still just working, doing homework and projects like crazy, and trying to sleep and run (not at the same time, duh). I really don't know what to do with spare time. I wish I had more of it though. That'd be great.

Oh Really?

The other day I got an interesting compliment. 

I was told I have beautiful ears that don't stick out (even though they kind of do). I would have found this weird, but I have been complimented on my ears before. 

I have also been complimented on my feet and hands. I guess I have good looking appendages. Who knew? I guess I should thank my parents for the great DNA.

Silly Me

The bus I take only comes around the :15 hour after 9, and I missed it today, so I ended up walking from 400 West to Campus. It was about 2 miles. I was exhausted from speed walking because it was chilly this morning. Then I had work and school, followed by a quick run at the Fieldhouse, and now even more work. I am a weird girl. I should have just waited for the next bus instead of walking. I could have saved a lot of energy and time. Oh well. Live and learn. Here is the walking route I took today. It is basically my running route that I do sometimes for my super fast there and back runs.
Thanks Google Maps for the directions!

Moments That Matter Most

Sometimes we get wrapped up in things that we can't control and we forget the good things in our life. We need to remember what matters most to us in this world... the little moments that make our life great. Elder Neal Maxwell said, "Moments are the molecules that make up eternity." We are here to learn, grow, develop, and then return to our Heavenly Father. I know I need to remember to find joy in the simple things in my life. I love this gospel.
