dis·trac·tion

I don't know what's up with me lately, but focusing on preparing for my mission has not been my focus, and it's kind of driving me nuts.

School is taking waaaay more time than I thought possible for only 6 credits. Spanish. Whew! I have two tests this next week. Obviously BoM and Spanish. And I'm slightly nervous about them. Un poco nerviosa...


Lord of the Rings has also been a big distraction. I love J. R. R. Tolkein. Wow he was amazing. And his books rock. I just read the part where Eowyn kills the Lord of the Ring Wraiths. I was super excited for that part. Girls can be awesome warriors too, if needed ;)


And the king of Gondor is about to burn himself and his son Faramir on the pyre in the middle of the city in the graveyard. What the heck! And Frodo just got captured by the Orcs. And Sam has the ring!
As you can see, it's kinda intense. But I have really been trying to curb this addiction to reading them so I can remember to also spend more time in the scriptures and in PMG. Where I should be.








And I'm also distracted by love songs. Pa leeze. I need to get over it and go on my mish. But these are some of the phrases that have been stuck in my head (aside from the few boy hating songs that are always there):

"You're the sky that I fell through, and I remember the view whenever I'm holding you."

"Wise men say only fools rush in, but I can't help falling in love with you."

"I don't know but I think I may be falling for you, dropping so quickly...I'm trying not to tell you, but I want to. I'm scared of what you'll say...

I've been spending all my time just thinking 'bout you...I think I'm fallin' for you"

"When you're near I hide my blushing face and trip on my shoelaces, grace just isn't my forte but it brings me to my knees when you say 'Hello, how are you, my darling, today?'"

And another song by The Band Perry... 

Yeah, I'm silly. Anyways.... I have been trying super hard to re focus on preparing for my mission. It is a little hard because when I think about it too much I get so stressed out since I'm leaving so soon. But It will be good. And I just need to work a little bit harder to get ready :) 

Now I just need to go shopping for like 10 hrs straight....
