And Counting;

So, right now, I feel pretty happy. Lately, I feel as if blessings from the Lord are basically being rained upon me, and I am so grateful for it.

• First of all, THERE IS ONLY 17 MORE DAYS LEFT UNTIL I FLY TO SPAIN. OH MY GOODNESS. I HAVE NO WORDS TO EXPLAIN HOW EXCITED I AM. Okay, that's not true. I definitley do have words for it. I am so amazingly, shockingly, wonderfully, unable-to-even-think-of-more-adjectives-ly excited for this trip. It'll be a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The crazy part that truly boggles my mind is that I signed up for this trip in October...of 2011. That was SO long ago. That is...hold on a second... 511 days or 1 year, 4 months, and 22 days or 73 weeks, or 12,264 hours, or 735,840 minutes, or even (this is getting serious) 44,150,400 seconds. (Wow, that date calculator was thorough). 44 MILLION SECONDS SINCE I SIGNED UP. Boggles my mind.
• Second of all, I've been worried that I wouldn't have enough money for this trip. Between my parents and I, we've paid off the actual trip, but for whatever reason, I didn't give much thought into the money that I need while on the trip. And then, when I did, I got nervous. How am I going to pay for this? To enjoy myself when I'm always worried about how many euros (so fun to say that) I have? This thoughts raced through my head. But, no need to fear, blessings are here. For real, though. This week alone, four DIFFERENT families in my ward asked me to babysit for them. Coincidence? I think definitely not. My boss asked me to work everyday last week, which, not gonna lie, was kinda stressful, but it was worth it. I worked an extra day today, also. Oh, did I mention I got a raise as well. Only 2%, but that still means I am no longer a minimum wage girl. Moving up in the world. Oh, yeah! *Imagine Vector from Despicable Me*
• Third, I love my job. Seriously those kids make me so happy. Today, one of my little girls, who I LOVE, was talking to me. I would post this hilarously cute picture of her, but I'm not allowed to. Anyways, she was talking about boyfriends and asked if I had one. When I said no, she looked aghast. "Why? You're beautiful!" It basically made my entire week. She's adorable and kids are adorable and I can't wait to have a beautiful little family of my own...I mean, I can wait. I'm only seventeen, for goodness sakes.

That's it for right now, but... OH YEAH

• They just called a two hour delay like a half-hour ago. Those sure make me happy. Especially when we get it called the day before and not fifteen minutes after I wake up for seminary. Woop woop. Holla.

So, that's it for right now, but I will talk to you guys later.

P.S. I have a joke for you. Don't cheat. It's basically my joke for the week. I've been telling everyone. It's just to clever...Anyways:

Q: Why can't you hear the pterodactyl go to the bathroom?
