Alright, it's been 16 months since I last posted on this blog. Which should lead everyone to the conclusion that I suck at writing. Which also leads me to give a quick update on my life. I think it can be summed up in about one word: STATISTICS.
Seriously. I don't have a life outside of my major. Which is actually okay with me, because I freaking love Statistics. However, perhaps I should try to walk outside the Talmage building once in a while. I'm now officially a Senior. I've applied to a integrated Bachelor's/Master's program here at BYU, I am really terrified that I won't get in, but I suppose if I don't life will move on. I'm not sure when I got old enough to apply to Graduate programs, but apparently it happened. Also, I have exactly zero amount of men in my life, so again, my life is just entirely consumed with Statistics.
Also, as this blog is still called Calculating Happiness, I will talk about where I am in that part of my life. My life is pretty great. And most of the time I am pretty darn happy. Every once in a while I get frustrated with things that have happened in the past or I start getting super overwhelmed with all my responsibilities, but I am happy. And that's not to say that I'm not an ornery person about 75% of the time, but deep inside I really am pleased with not only my life, but also with who I am.
Part of this comes from my strengthened and deepened relationship with our wonderful Heavenly Father. He's pretty fantastic, and I've been trying to make an effort to get to know Him better. I've been able to recognize how much better everything in your life seems when you know that Heavenly Father is kind of orchestrating a large part of it. And that He loves us, and as long as we don't interfere, because we have free agency and all, our lives are going to work out great. Not to say we won't have trials, but is life really fun* if we don't have trials? I submit that it is not! *Fun here is a word that means interesting.
I have had so much happen in my life in the last 16 months, I don't think that I'm going to tell you about it. Maybe you will be able to infer from who I am now, maybe not. It's all good.
