Who Am I To Be Blind?

Dear Friends,
I just wanted you to know about how excited I am for General Conference this weekend. I'm way excited. I never have really put any effort into General Conference because I was always disinterested, so this is basically the first time that I've actually been looking forward to Conference. But I've come to realize that servants of the Lord are going to be speaking to me about the things that I need to know and many important topics. That's pretty significant, I would say. With that perspective, I look forward to a wonderful, counsel-filled weekend.
Love,
Emily

P.S. It's freaking me out that the semester is almost over. It seems like I just graduated from high school, but it's been almost a year. Weird.

Don't worry, I'm Still Alive

I should have known that I wouldn't be the most consistent blogger. At least I'm trying, right? Well, life is good. (Big surprise, right?) But really, it's good. Lots of unexpected things have happened in the past couple of months (has it really been that long since the last time I blogged?! Si, Senorita.) but I think that everything has been for my own learning and progression. Such is life. I don't really have anything spectacular to blog about. I just remembered that I have a blog and that I should probably write something on it every now and then, even if I'm the only one that ends up reading it. Anyway, just so you know, whoever you are, I'm not dating anyone. I did go on one date last month that was so much fun and so wonderful, but that went nowhere very, very quickly. Anyway, I digress. My point is that I, Emily Sheley, was able to get through two semesters of college without getting engaged. This was a goal of mine; mission accomplished. :) I'm mostly joking. It wasn't an actual goal. However, I'm quite aware that I'm about 75-80% not ready to be married. I still have some growing up and some self-discovery business that I need to take care of. I'm not sure why I mentioned this... Perhaps because I'm trying to think of unexpected things that have happened to me. My sister/roommates threw a surprise birthday party for me. That was definitely unexpected but definitely welcomed. It was a pretty low-key event, but it was a fabulous way to celebrate my first birthday away from home. Well, I'm starting to get tired and I'm sure there's an assignment that I should probably be doing for tomorrow, so I'm going to leave you with my more random than usual thoughts.

The End.

Love,

Emily
