A very big apology to Kathy and Heather! You have probably given up on the Mirm's Nook. But, I'm back! At least for tonight! Life goes and goes. It'd be great if you could slice it into pieces and preserve the best parts for when you wanted them. I think I heard of a pill once...fact or fiction...not sure....but if taken it would allow you to relive any memory you wished and it would seem as real as your breakfast cereal! I don't know if I agree with that...it could probably go horribly wrong. But it's interesting concept isn't it? Switching gears...who are you voting for? I feel like the politics this year are all out of control. Sometimes I am scared about it, other times I try to forget it. When I try to take it head on I get confused and switch back and forth for various reasons. I like what Moroni had to say on his title of liberty. It'd be great if we could send that around and get people to rally and support it.
Anyway..for some Mirm gossip, I'm dating a 25 yr old r.m. (Mexico City, Mexico mission). His name is Paul Trappett. We met at the beginning of school and have been seeing each other for a while now! It's going good and I have to say it's always nice to have someone you like like you back! Perks include: He always opens the door for me, car and wherever we go. I like the old-fashioned type. He lets me know I'm important to him and I'm special! Gotta love that kind of respect. If you want more details, you'll have to wait!
School is great. I love my painting class and printmaking class. I especially love the painting class because I get "in the zone" while working. You forget about everything and escape somewhere peaceful in your mind. That's the best I can do to explain it.
I took a drive up the canyon with my dad to burn some documents and that was a great time. The colors were so beautiful! If you have some time it's worth just driving up there to see it around 6:30 to 7ish while the sun is setting. It really makes the colors more vibrant at that time of day.
I also have a good english class this semester. I think I'm going to post my personal narrative essay when I have a little time so you can comment on it. I need so help in revision because I want to submit it for a contest!
Tomorrow is my mission reunion! I can't believe it's almost General Conference. I've been reading this months Ensign and have felt such comfort from it. I was really feeling down about the world and our country's situation. We really are in a pickle! I think this has been the best Ensign ever for me! I really enjoy having the Holy Ghost present in my life. I think it is really the greatest gift I have every received.
How is everyone else out there? Have you had any neat spiritual experiences lately?
I've been trying to work on being a missionary. I was even called as a Ward Missionary! Paul is the WML...crazy..haha. I have a few attempts at inviting people but I wouldn't call it complete or a success yet. I hope to follow-up. I need to make plans!
Love you all!

Yay! I was beginning to think you had forgotten you had a blog! The boy sounds pretty good. Can't wait to see if he's a keeper! As for the election, some days I really like what Obama has to offer, and then other days I sway towards McCain (more out of my conservative roots than anything), and then other days I think I just won't vote at all because I really have no idea who will be best. And then I get really cynical and start thinking that my vote doesn't even matter because of the dumb electoral college, so why stress myself over trying to sort thing out! At the end of the day I'm no closer to knowing who to vote for than I was at the beginning. On a brighter note, this IS a beautiful time of year! Scott and I walked the trail that follows the Logan River by the golf course on the south end of town on Sunday. Can I just say GORGEOUS!!!! Glad to hear that there are parts of school that you are enjoying. Good luck on finding the right path for you. Man, this is a long comment! Remember, you are in charge of notifying my when you become an aunt! Maybe I'll see ya at the hospital because I definitely want to come take a peek and drop off a little something something! Keep us posted on the boyfriend. I hope he turns out to be the one, because I'd LOVE to see you start the really great part of life! (That would be marriage and family, in case you didn't know!). I wonder if there is a limit to exactly how long a comment can be? I'll quit before finding out!
Man, my comment looks dumb next to Kathy's. I think I like Obama, but I'm not registered to vote and I'll probably keep it that way because politics irritate me. Congrats on the boy and school going well and update more often because I like hearing about what is going on!
I just need to ask, and if I'm totally wrong please just delete my comment and ignore me...but is this my best hurdle friend Mirm from Logan High from clear back in the day?
Yay!! Im excited for you and this boy!!! Youll have to tell me lots about him!! Il bet hes a cutie!! I miss you sooo much! We need to hang out sometime and go do something fun!! Love ya tons,
Love, Paigers
Like you don't updated with pictures and words about your ENGAGEMENT! This better be remedied within a few days!
