Sunday

yep its Sunday again :) I know it says saturday which is retarded but it is sunday here.
Today I have to pack for my Nanny job in Amsterdam which is actually Michelle's old job, I'll work there until December and then I move on to Dordrecht as a nanny also, so it should be a couple interesting months..


oh and yesterday I got attacked by my razor lol... yes an awesome cut right up the side of my leg. i'm cursed I swear. it never fails.. this is my second worse cut lol its pretty amazing if you ask me. i don't know how it happens.. weird.

Anyway, i'm pretty Nervous about tomorrow meeting Heleen and stuff. I mean she's nice and stuff but I turn into a total klutz around them. really. its sad... I'll get over it. i'm also REALLY excited for the job in Decemeber! Pippi and Ole are soooooo fun! and I worked on my dutch for two days when I went for the meeloop days there, man.. I can speak it better than I thought I could at least. which is cool. I can't wait to practice it more with them and reading to them and everything Pippi is 5 and Ole is turning 4, they are so sweet! Pippi is such a girly girl i love it! i cant wait to be doing her hair and with ole he loves cars and tools, he kept asking their current au'pair if he could show me the basement even though he showed it to me already haha it was so cute, and Dordrecht has got to be one of the most hidden beautiful town/city .. we'll go with ''place'' i've ever seen! there's so much to it that i haven't noticed! and its a whole lot bigger than i thought too, and everything you need is right there! i will literally be living 2 minutes from TONS of shops! :D YAY! but considering i need to save up for my mission and other things i wont be shopping to much i don't think. i plan on saving from now on. and of course tithing..(which reminds me to give it to pop..)

oh and yay, my wisdom tooth thing only hurt for 3 days this time! ...unless i just cursed it and it will hurt again tomorrow. that would suck.. i always get this lisp when its tryin to come through again lol. mom laughed at me lol. it was great, oh and yesterday was My Parents 34th anniversary pop gave mom these pretty flowers yellow and blue.. i wanted to take a petal from each one just cuz they're pretty lol but i figure that wouldn't be very nice so i restrained myself.
I was thinking i should also make some more video's for syd in the coming months she'd like.. just thinkin out loud here. oh and i also just found out that the place called ''sundays'' is in fact, NOT a restaurant LOL .. its a tanning salon lol (in the center in dordrecht where i'll be 2 minutes from lol) which i wont go to often.. only when necessary in the summer... before i shatter peoples eye's out of their heads.. at least the sun doesn't reflect off me here like it did in las Vegas LOL .. that was tons of fun ...oh and HALLELUJAH mom and pop decided to turn on the heater lol. amazing. i thought it would never happen LOL. next week is gonna be a lot colder YAY i can wear scarves now! :D im forcing myself to not wear my winter clothes until its colder or else it wont do any good.

Next sunday is already General Conference! and i'll get to see all the Sister and Elder Missionarys again! they're so fun :) lots of them are from Utah and Arizona and Nevada and such, so thats cool :) the Mission president is really cool too i love it when he gives firesides the one he gave at YSA camp was AWESOME he talked about (not only but one of the things he did) president kimble's (i think it was him) thing about the 40 stakes in the Netherlands. which will be really cool i dont doubt it. there's a lot of people out there who need the gospel in their life only they don't know it yet.. its strange to think that we've all made the choice to come here and there are some people in the world who just dont want to make it the rest of the way.. oh well those are thoughts i still need to think out...


well i better charge my ipod for the train tomorrow.. which is by the way the best investment i ever made! ( the ipod not the train why would anyone invest in a train that's just dumb)
