11 other men witnessed the plates
the Book of Mormon translation was finished in 1829

the Susquehanna River - where Joseph Smith was baptized

Harmony, PA - monument representing the Priesthood being restored to the earth

college (at byu) makes me..

• say: "A 'D'.... I passed!!!!" -Tommy Boy
• feel so insignificant
• become independent... i don't like it
• miss my mom's home cooked meals
• hate dance parties
  
• bored of myself and my own thoughts... because i'm always by myself
  
• realize my vocabulary is soo soo soo small
• miss rehearsal at The Dance Club
• wonder why people loved freshman year so much? if fun=school work maybe my priorities are set incorrectly
  
• add more and more to my list of missionaries i'm writing
  
• concentrate extremely hard to try to understand my professor's language.. there's no way thats English!
• miss my LEGIT 6 (madison call, kayley gardner, emily julian, kelli davies, regan bailey)
  
• constantly consciously think about what i am eating
  
• CHERISH dinner time at the Cannon center.. it's my only social hour of the day
• vow to never show pda ever again. ever
• lose hope that there is someone for me out there..
• stress about what my major will be
• have a constant radar for cute boys.. and then check for a ring
  
• feel like a dumb blonde
• appreciate the easiness of ohs
  
• make my bed
• wonder what my life has in store for me
  
• miss performing at high school events with my ODC and just be able to dance for a teacher who i knew loved me and thought i was a good dancer.. my 'haven' and the place i could just not worry and dance!
  
• forget my self-worth when i walk out of the testing center
• realize that i have to grow up whether i like it or not.

a close friend always reminds me:
