Elder Stevens, You are Hereby Called...

To serve as a missionary of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in the Irvine California mission! He is called to be at the MTC on July 10th.
What a relief to finally know the when and where of my best friend! We waited 6 months from the first time his papers were submitted to now. I'm SO glad he isn't going too far.
What's really cool about this though is that its a BRAND NEW mission. It officially begins as a mission on July 1st. That's only 9 days before Brandon has been called to leave. How exciting it is! :)
He is going to be a great missionary. :)

Times of Change

SO, I dyed my hair! And holy moly, it is way dark! I figured that since last time I dyed my hair, and the color didn't take at all, I would get a color a few shades darker than what I was hoping for. So of course, this time I actually got the color on the box. To a tee. OF COURSE. But it's all good, because I actually really do like it, it's just taking some time to get used to.

Random rant: How many social networks could there possibly be? Like seriously. I mean, I can only keep up with so much. I already have a blog, facebook, twitter, instagram, and pinterest, and now they have these new things called Vine and Path? Like no, just count me out please.

Back to subject: So I like my hair, and I managed to get it done just in time to make it to work on time. So that was good, because I like my job. Not really actually, I just like getting paid and spending money. ;)

TOMORROW is the day that my best friend Brandon FINALLY gets his mission call!!! My guess is for Washington, and in 8 weeks to leave, but we'll find out tomorrow! :D

Good night, all :)

My Impending Abandonment

I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and I absolutely love it. It's the best decision I've ever made in my life. The one drawback for me right now... my best friend is going to be leaving on his mission soon. On Friday he will find out where he is serving for the next two years of his life. THIS IS A MAJOR THING. Seriously. Like, I don't even know what I'm going to do with my life without him because he's been so much a part of it for the last year and a half. It'll be an adventure for sure.

Despite the fact that I don't want him to leave me, I'm glad he is leaving me to do the Lord's work! In the scope of his two mission years, he can bring so many others to be able to have eternity in the celestial kingdom. How awesome is that??! I'm proud of the excellent example he is, and I love him so much. :)

Call comes FRIDAY! That's when I officially freak out.
