because of you.

Dear BYU Alumni,

I call you every night for my job.
Some of you are so very nice.
Some of you I understand honestly do not have a single penny to spare to give to the school.
Some of you do. And yet you do not give it.
Well, dearest Alumni, because of you, we do not have enough scholarships to give out to students.
Because of you my very best friend did not get a scholarship.
Because of you he may not be able to attend school next semester.
Because of you his plans for his life are slowly slipping out of his fingers, and there is nothing he can do about it. 
So next time I call, think again about giving.
Can you really just not go out to eat once this month and give that $10 to us instead?
Then maybe my best friend can have his life back.

K. Thanks.

Sincerely,
That "annoying" caller that you are so rude to and hang up on

Expressions of Love

I found this video of couples of all ages sharing how they show each other their love. 
Its really cute!
And also, Sam and her husband, Chas, from Young People in Love are in it! Try to find them!


How adorable are Tom and Joyce?! 
I hope someday I can be a cute old couple still in love like them!

one year ago today...

...I came back from the trip that changed my life.

Ghana, Africa. 

I went without my friends, and ended up making many more.
I went without my family, and gained a new one. 

I took a million and one pictures, 
so I decided this movie I made would do better justice than simply slapping them on my blog. 


I just pray that someday I can go back.
