christmas phone call

yesterday i got to talk to this guy...twice.

nothing like waking up to a phone call from your favorite missionary followed by another call later that day.

best christmas present EVER.


i miss him so much, but to hear that he is doing well and loving his time in hong kong makes me that much happier for him.
he said that his decision to go on a mission was the best decision he has made thus far. he can't imagine life any other way. he also said his mission has really made him realize how completely true the gospel is.

i am so proud of my brother. he truly is such an amazing example for me in my life. not only is his testimony and his love for the gospel unreal, but he just has this way of living life and touching people's hearts that is amazing. he never ceases to amaze me.

love you j.

china

the whole reason behind this blog is to document my time in china...yes, CHINA!
but me, being the impatient person i am, decided to create it now.

so here is the schpeal on china...
my friend lindsay, her cousin, and i are going overseas with a program called ILP.
we are going to be teaching english and have been assigned to a school in zhongshan.
our tentative departure date is february 8th with a returning date sometime near the end of june.

i honestly can't wait to get out of here.
a little break from real life is just what i need.
