music: John Mayer -- "3x5"
mood: sleepy but excited to go home tomorrow!
So I've been thinking a lot these last few days ... about what it really means to be a friend to someone and how important it is to understand that your friends are the people who make up a large part of the life you lead. And I just remembered something that we learned in Conley's class a long time ago ... 4 years now, wow. Crazy how fast time flies. But anyway, he always taught us that if we're going to say things, we should do it in terms of "I" ... so ... what I'm really saying is that I've been thinking about what it means to be a friend how that MY friends are the people who make up such a large of the life I lead and the path that I'm choosing to follow and the things I like and don't like and really just who I am.
Because really, think about it. Who do you assosiate with? Why? Who do you distance yourself from? Why? Is your mood impacted by the people you spend a lot of time with? Do certain friends makes you happier than others? Do you go to certain people when you're feeling a certain way? Do you have people you can go to no matter WHAT you're feeling or are your friends 'conditional' to a certain extent? Are they only there for a certain season or are they year-long friends? Can you talk to them about the deepest part of your heart or do you hold back? Why? What makes you more apt to telling some people some things and other people other things? Are there people in your life that allow you to say anything without feeling like you're being looked down on or judged? How do you pick your friends? What qualities are you looking for/trying to stay away from? Do you have a 'best' friend? Or a group of best friends? How do you distinguish between those friends? What makes someone a 'best' friend rather than just a friend?
Anyway, that's just stuff I've been thinking about...
I'm going to go to bed, I think.
Spring break starts in T minus 16 hours.

Soo ... this may have been posted in the near recent past. lol But oh well. 
It's a great song ... totally reminds me of my backpacking trip when I took photos of EVERYTHING ... because that's all I could do ... because I wanted to capture EVERYTHING and take it all back ... and try to show people just how beautiful the world really is. And now, when I look at all my photos, I know that they will never even begin to compare to the beauty that actually surrounded me and all the wonder and amazement people feel at the things I saw will never come close to measuring up to what I actually felt when I was there. I hope those feelings will last for the rest of my life.

John Mayer
I'm writing you to catch you up on places I've been
You held this letter probably got excited,
but there's nothing else inside it
didn't have a camera by my side this time
hopping I would see the world with both my eyes
maybe I will tell you all about it
when I'm in the mood
to lose my way with words
Today skies are painted colors of a cowboy's cliche'
And strange how clouds that look like mountains
in the sky are next to mountains anyway
Didn't have a camera by my side this time
Hoping I would see the world with both my eyes
Maybe I will tell you all about it
when I'm in the mood
to lose my way but let me say
You should have seen
that sunrise with your own eyes
it brought me back to life
You'll be with me next time I go outside
just no more 3x5's
Guess you had to be there
Guess you had to be with me
Today I finally overcame
tryin' to fit the world inside a picture frame
Maybe I will tell you all about it
when I'm in the mood
to lose my way but let me say
You should have seen that sunrise
with your own eyes
it brought me back to life
You'll be with me next time I go outside
just no more 3x5's
no more 3x5's

Happy day for not being 19 anymore! Who knew it would be this exciting? lol I'm spending the day at home con mi familia (well, actually the whole weekend, but you know ...), which was definitely a good choice. There's no better way to start the day than by jumping on your sister at 10:15 and telling her that she's been sleeping for too long so she needs to wake up. lol Oh man, I heart that girl.
Anyway, I'm going to go get dressed and such ... getting my hair cut today! Just a little bit ... but still.
Happy day to you!

Between challenges it is very restful, but ... any real growth I have ever enjoyed has always come with a challenge. --Elder John B. Dickson
Afflictions can soften us and sweeten us, and can be a chastening influence. We often think of chastening as something being done to punish us, such as by a mortal tutor who is angry and peevish with us. Diving chastening, however, is a form of learning as it is administered at the hands of a loving Father. --Elder Neal A. Maxwell
I testify that the Man who suffered for mankind, who committed His life to healing the sick and comforting the disconsolate, is mindful of your sufferings, doubts, and heartaches. -- Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin
The wonds in his hands, feet, and side are signs that in mortality painful things happen even to the pure and the perfect, sigs that tribulation is not evidence that God does not love us. It is a significant and hopeful fact that it is the wounded Christ who comes to our rescue. He who bears the scars of sacrifice, the lesions of love, the emblems of humility and forgiveness is the Captain of our soul. That evidence of pain in mortality is undoubtedly intended to give courage to others who are also hurt and wounded by life, perhaps even in the house of their friends. -- Elder Jeffery R. Holland
When tragedy strikes or even when it looms, our families will have the opportunity to look into our hearts to see whether we know what we said we knew. -- Elder Henry B. Eyring
Part of enduring well consists of being meek enough amid our suffering to learn from our relevant experiences. Rather than simply passing through these things, they must pass through us -- in ways which sanctify allthese experiences for our good. Likewise, our empathy is enriched everlastingly as we comfort and assit those in the midst of 'all these things' which can give us experiences for our good. -- Elder Neal A. Maxwell

Last night on the way home from the Richens' house, Dylan got out of the car and jumped in the front seat ... on Brittney's lap ... at a stop light. lol After dropping his phone and having all the pieces fall apart upon impact with the road. Good thing it was a long red light. lol
To make this even more amusing, Taylor was sitting in the backseat, by himself, stroking our heads ... which was, admittedly, a bit creeper-ish. So we invited him into the front seat, at while point, he sprawled himself across the front seat (remember that he's 6'4'') and I managed to drive around campus with 4 people in the front seat of my little Honda Accord. lol
We stopped outside Memorial hoping Jessica Kim or D would be home so we could get photographic evidence of this feat, but neither of them were ... so we sat there for a while ... laughing really hard because of the awkwardness of the situation. lol Then we drove to the Observatory, at which point, the boys piled out of the front seat of my car.
I'll tell you something ... it's really hard to drive when you've got someone crushing your innards. lol

--"Say It Loud", Sanctus Real
Hiya!
So this has definitely been the most low key weekend I've had since I got back ... and I'm still deciding how I feel about it. I was on duty, so that didn't help, but I don't know. It's been a weird week and I just ... at this point ... want to be in England. I mean, I'm happy here, don't get me wrong -- because I am happy. But I just miss the ease and lack of complication in England. Mariana left me a voicemail today that just made my heart smile ... and I do miss that. A lot. And I knowwwww that there is no sense dwelling on what cannot be changed and I know that there's no point wasting my time here wishing I was there ... but I do. Miss it, that is.
A lot has changed ... but really, nothing has. But I feel different and it's hard for me to feel so different and not have anything around me be different. Rawr. This is lame. lol I only feel like this when I spend too much time with myself -- not because I'm unhappy, but because when I'm by myself I had loads of time to remember people like Dave ... and Chris ... and Mariana ... and Lyd. And I have loads of time to miss them because I don't have anyone around to take my mind off them. And really, I can't expect my friends to understand why that bums me out ... especially after being home for 6 weeks now. Wow. SIX WEEKS! Can you believe how quickly time goes? Sheesh. It still feels like just yesterday that I was stepping off the plane in Portland, knowing that I had officially ended the most amazing four and a half months of my life. And now, here I am ... six weeks later ... still feeling that same deep-seeded sadness that comes from realizing that things will never be the same.
There’s a feeling that comes over you when you know that something has changed forever. --Joydrop
Up until just now, I always thought that quote implied a good feeling that comes over a person who realizes that the course of their eternity has been significantly altered ... but I have just realized that that's not always the case.
Anyway, on a much less serious note ... I found out what Campbell kids do when they're bored on Saturday nights:
http://www.zithora.com/gallery/v/Sammot/linfield06/?g2_page=13
Pay special attn to the last six photos posted (though the ones immediately preceeding it are pretty wicked too. lol). The ones that look like there's snow inside the building? Yeah, it's actually powdered sugar. lol
In the space of 15 minutes, the stairwells on all four floors of my building were silently covered in powdered sugar. And by silently, I mean, I had my door open and didn't hear anything out of the ordinary and when I came out ... that's what was found. lol Oyyy. Is it bad that I'm not even surprised this happened? lol All I could do was laugh ... because truth be told, it's hilarious! lol I felt awful that the cleaning services had to come clean it up at 10:30 on a Saturday night ... but really ... it was pretty funny. lol Jamie and Bree came and got me and were like, "uhh, have you seen the baby powder all over the floor?" So I went out and was like, "oh..." And started laughing, completely unsure of how to deal with something like that. lol Who knows. This hall keeps me amused, that's for definite!
Anyway, I think I'm going to go ... want to finish this reading for Tuesday (getting really ahead in this class! That's what happens when I'm on rounds and by myself for a Saturday night! lol) and then hopefully talk to Brandon and get to bed. Yay for church tomorrow!!

Mr. T says:

Mr. T says:

well .. instead i just poured the mix into two different bowls and one had too much milk and the other had not enough, but it'll do b/c i don't mind thick pudding
! be fabulous ! i heart missionaries says:
so i was like, "well, thats lame but at least one turned out ok." but then i had this bowl of milky pudding that i couldn't just throw away..

People who go to college are incredible. We go to classes. We sleep very little. We become attached to close friends. We all have separate lives, families, backgrounds, and pasts. We live totally different from how we used to live. We are frustrated and sometimes want to give up, but we never stop trying. We try to sort out our minds, which are filled with studies, worries, problems, memories, emotions. We hurt -- a lot. We keep going though, because above all else, we never stop learning, growing, changing, and most important, dreaming. Dreams keep us going and they always will. All we can do is be thankful that we have something to hold onto, like dreams and each other.

So it snowed today.
That was pretty cool.
I love the way the sky looks right now.
If it wasn't 1:30am, I'd drive to someplace where I could just lay out and look at the sky.
There's something brilliant about snow ... about how white and fresh and clean everything looks when there's snow coming down. Because each of those snowflakes is perfectly perfect in its own little way ... and there's something miraculous about the perfection and purity that comes from everything being covered in snow. All of life's little imperfections are covered and if only for a moment ... everything is perfect again.
I stepped in a huge mud puddle when I got home ... it was hilarious! lol I laughed ... even though there was no one else with me ... I laughed. It was a good feeling.
I was quite grumpy earlier today ... it's been a weird few days, really. Between the ups and downs with the weather and not knowing where I stand with someone and just being so dang tired all the time and just having a lot going on ... it's been interesting. But I gave myself some time to cool down a bit and talked to him about what was bothering me -- and now things are okay. No more grumpy gills, Sam. Only happy from here on out.
So I realize it's been quite a while since I updated -- it's been a while since I've written anywhere, to be fair. I haven't even written in my REAL journal!! Which is a bummer because I really need to fill it up so I can start my new one. lol Because yes, I bought yet another new journal this last weekend. It was only $3.50; couldn't turn it down! Speaking of the weekend -- it was great. Really really great! Taylor's family is amazing and well, so is he. lol Soooo yeah. It was a very relaxing, very uplifting and destressing weekend! I spent the bulk of Sunday afternoon with a 4 yr old ... and let me tell you, Kooks is the coolest 4 year old on the planet. Maybe tomorrow I will write more in depth about the weekend.
Right now though ... it's interesting. I've been thinking a lot lately about how much my priorities have changed since last spring. For instance, last spring I was working basically 24/7 right up until I left for England ... 2 jobs, school, res life, LDSSA, church, friends, etc. Just always doing something. This year ... I'm still always doing something ... but notice on that list church and friends are at the end? This year ... they're not. This year, church stuff and LDSSA stuff are my two biggest concerns. I'm not even worried about the fact that I don't have a second job and frankly, I'm enjoying it because it allows me time to go to institute twice a week, to go to FHE, to have my Sunday School lesson prepared by Thursday, to really spend time with my Father in Heaven. To just be me. And it allows me to spend more time with my friends and more time with my residents, building up and fortifying those relationships that will sustain me throughout my life. I've been exercising 4-5 times a week, which has been amazing! Actually doing the reading for my classes, which I love. I dropped philosophy officially, which drops me to 12 credits ... but I'm so much more balanced right now! I can feel it ... I just feel ... good. For lack of better words at this hour, I just feel good. Things are as they should be and all is well. It's amazing.
I didn't even realize how much my priorities have changed since going to England until tonight when I looked up at the sky and saw how beautiful it was. And it reminded me of that night walking down the downs with Dave after institute ... and how we just stood out there and spoke about how amazing the gospel is for over an hour ... not even realizing that it was freezing cold. It was a beautiful night -- a different kind of beautiful from tonight, but beautiful nonetheless!
Really though, what's important in this life? Certainly not money ... and I'm realizing that. While I was in England, I spent a lot of time worried about how I was going to manage financially ... and while it was hard, especially toward the end, I made it.
While I was in England, I also spent a lot of time rediscovering my Savior and the love He has for me -- I spent a lot of time with people of my faith ... people who really just understood me because they know and understand the very core me -- something I'd seriously been lacking at Linfield. And then I came back ... and found people who do the same. Who provide that same source of strength. I can't even begin to explain what a blessing it has been to have Taylor, Dylan #2 and Britt on campus! Just to know that they're there ... to hang out ... to bless me ... to strengthen me ... to cheer me on when no one else can. It's phenomenal! They're quickly becoming some of my closest friends and it's really amazing!
Going to church activities 4 times a week has been beyond wonderful for me this term! They center me ... they put things back in focus. My life realigns itself every time I'm surrounded by people who believe with their whole souls -- people who are on fire for the gospel ... for their Savior. Institute/FHE on Mondays, Institute on Wednesdays, church on Sundays ... not to mention the fact that I've been to the temple twice since I got home! And now that I'm teaching gospel doctrine, I'm not only reading the scriptures every day ... but I'm really delving into them because I have to know enough to teach the lesson and to answer the questions of the people in my class. I feel like I'm getting to know the scriptures so much better and it's only been a short time! Man this gospel is great.
Heavenly Father has blessed me tremendously ... I can't even explain it. It's just so ... wonderful. ::sigh::
I know ... complete change in attitude from when some of you spoke with me ... weird how that happens, huh?
If you're going to walk on thin ice, you might as well dance.

There are two types of friends that a person can have: those who, when someone is excited about something, share that excited ... and those who, when someone is excited about something, dampen their spirits. The first type of friends are usually the ones who see you change and let you change ... the other usually doesn't like that you've changed or simply refuses to let you do so. The first type is usually the type of person someone would want to hang out with because they simply accept you for who you are, changed or not while the second person, you call up and find yourself brought down and discouraged because they don't share the same exuberance or joy for life that you have found. 
Rejoice evermore.
Pray without ceasing.
In all things give thanks.

But anyway, I posted pictures from this weekend -- spent it in Eugene w/ Taylor and his familia -- it was definitely an amazing, amazing weekend!! His family is ridiculously awesome and well, Taylor is really fun to hang out with. lol One of these days, I'm bound to get sick of him ... but I don't really forsee that happening any time soon, so it kind of works out. Anyway, go look at those photos -- they're fun. And yeah. That's about all. lol I'll update on the weekend later on ... but for now, I'm outta here. Adios amigos

So you know how sometimes you reach that point of exhaustion where all you want to do is collapse, but when you lay down, you simply cannot lay still long enough to fall asleep? Well, that's me tonight. It's bizzarre. I can't remember the last time I was this tired and yet, for whatever reason, body just won't calm down enough to sleep. Oy. Made a few phone calls that I've been meaning to make for a while though, and that was good. I'm hoping to maybe see Robby and Jason Reno while I'm in Eugene this weekend. However, we know how quickly weekends go by ... so we'll see! I am for sure seeing Amanda on our way through! Yay!
I've been on this Dave Matthews, Jack Johnson, John Mayer kick recently ... and it's great. I kid you not, I can do anything to this "John, Jack, Dave" playlist I've created. lol Sleep? Yup! Study? Of course! Write papers? You betcha! Study scriptures? Heck yes! Drive? One of the best things to do with Jack Johnson! Exercise? Ohhhh yeahhh! It's good news, I tell ya. The music is just chill enough to not stress me out and just upbeat enough to keep me going. It's great. I highly recommend everyone getting themselves a "John Jack Dave" playlist!
Umm, yeah. That's all. I really don't have anything to say ... it's been an incredible week, and whether or not I mean that in a positive or negative manner has yet to be determined. lol Let's just say, I'm really stinkin' excited to get off campus this weekend! It's going to be good -- I can feel it already!
Rawr. Why am I still awake at 2:20 in the morning?! lol C'mon now, son! This is border line ridiculous.
Ope! There was a yawn ... but it was really short lived. It's weird. Like, I know that I'm exhausted ... but I just don't feel exhausted ... like, I feel like going running or something. Oy. Definitely need to get away. lol Too much nervous energy, I think. Definitely looking forward to tomorrow!
Alright, I'm off to do something midly productive ... just don't know what yet. Happy Friday! <33

Well it's almost 5:30am ... and I've yet to sleep. I don't have a clue how I'm going to survive today. Got home from the library about midnight and then went to lay down about 1:00, only to start reeling over the things I need to get done today. And then realized that there was no way I could get it all done ... so I better get started on it. And then I had to go to talk to Spence about 3:30am because there was a fight in the basement. And then I came back and started working some more. And oy. I think I'm going to go for a run around 7 -- just a short one though. It's cold and I'm tired. I've got a full day till probably 4:00 ... then a couple hours off, then institute from 7-9. Then homework. Oy. Probably going to die. lol
Ahh the joys of Uni at home! In England I used to pull all nighters just for fun ... because we'd all of a sudden look at the clock and say, "It's 6am ... we might as well just stay up for breakfast!" lol Now it's about 5:30am and I'm dying -- granted, I was almost falling asleep at my computer around 11pm last night. lol
Should be an interesting day.. lol Happy March everyone!
