General Conference was so uplifting. Although I didn't go in with a specific question or problem that I needed an answer to I still felt that so much of each talk was relevant to me and my life. I love General Conference. Seriously. I love the Apostles and the Prophet. They are all such amazing men and such great examples to me. The spirit I felt during conference was much needed. I needed that pick up. I am so glad that I can rely on the Lord to tell me the things that I need to hear. I am so grateful that I know that he loves me and wants me to be happy. I love this gospel.
I am also grateful that I know he answers prayers. I have been kicking my own butt with memorizing my scene for Romeo and Juliet auditions. It has been rough for me and I was getting super discouraged. Memorizing a 10 minute (6 page) Shakespeare scene in 5 days is ROUGH. Especially when the majority of the scene is filled with 2 or 3 super long monologues. But thanks to the help of the lord I was able to do it! My audition is today and Jesse and I feel great about it. I know that I have done all I can to prepare for this audition and that all I can do now is go in there and give the best audition I can give. The rest is up to Tracy, and with all the different options for every single character (there are so many ways she could go!) I know she will pick the best person for each part, even if that person is not me :) She always does. Whatever is meant to happen, will happen.
Another thing that has lightened my mood is my new resolve to get on my feet and do something about my weight. I have been trying for a while to do so, but I finally have the means and opportunity to do what I need to do. I went to the gym yesterday and rode the eliptical for 30 minutes, had a really healthy dinner of chicken and asparagus, and had a grapefruit for breakfast this morning. I am planning on doing some weight lifting, or maybe cardio again, today to keep up my exercising. I know I'm going to have to work harder than I have in the past, but I feel that it is worth it.
Also, I am wearing yellow today! Particularly a yellow dress. Two of my favorite things. Yellow and dresses! It is also a super comfortable yellow dress that makes me feel good. So that is helping me out today too! I'm glad that I don't feel too chubby to wear it. It's one of my favorites!
I hope everyone has a wonderful day!!!
