"You should write a book, How to Offend Women in 5 Syllables or Less"

Name the movie that quote is from, and you will be my hero! Hint – It’s animated.

This week was probably one of the toughest of my life. Friday night hit rock bottom, so Saturday morning, I got up and I drove. And I drove and I drove, 4 hours until I reached St. George, Utah. Thankfully my Grandpa Smith and Neva welcomed me without much notice! I loved St. George. First, it was warm!!! Provo is cold and rainy, snow is coming! 2^nd, it was gorgeous! I loved the high red mountains and rocks. I can’t wait to hike at Zion soon. I have never liked Utah, I’ve always thought it was hideous. But I want to live in St. George! Grandpa and Neva took me out a delicious dinner (with all the breadsticks I could eat!! My favorite), and then showed me around. It really made me appreciate God’s creations even more. The temple was stunning. It was brilliantly white, huge, and in the middle of the city. It really was picturesque. We drove the skyline and the view was breathtaking. Then Neva stuffed more food in me – peppermint ice-cream and I watched movies. I have been lonely in Provo, so it was nice to have someone dote upon me. The atmosphere was open and refreshing, a much needed break from crowded Provo. Thank you SO much Grandpa and Neva, ya’ll are amazing! I love you both so very much, and I will be back VERY soon!

I learned that I have a tendency to run away from my problems and fears. The drive to and from St. George gave me some quality time with myself and my Savior. I know that the rest of this semester will be tough, I will have to make big decisions and learn about who I am and who I want to become. The Lord really wants me to be patient, and learn to rely on not only him, but myself.

I wish I had taken pictures, but alas, I will have to resort to Google
