the end of an era.

well, this week has been full of 'lasts'- although i know this next month will hold more.

wednesday was my last lesson and seminary. and today was my last day ever. im filled with a sense of melancholy as this era ends, i look forward to the next one that lies not so far around the corner. i start summer institute next week!

I have loved seminary. it has begun my love for the scriptures. im grateful for the spirit i felt each day.

im glad i could have such an enjoyable 4 years, that have helped me everyday. ill sure miss the upliftment each morning. but i know that because of seminary i can continue to learn more each time i read my scriptures.

im so thankful for my amazing seminary teacher, sis muir. shes taught me from the very begining, so much. im forever grateful for her insight and inspiring lessons and stories. i love you!

i have a testimony of seminary and the power of diligent scripture study. i know that when we follow the Lords example, we cant go wrong. i know the scriptures are the word of God, and are here today for us to read! im sad to leave, but grateful for the time i had. i love my Saviour and i know he is proud of me when i make righteous choices.

my new chapter.

so lately i have been seriously considering wearing a wig. i talked to a bunch of my friends about this. then i asked what my sister elly thought. she told me i should stop wearing anything on my head. i dismissed this idea without much thought, but then she told me that if i stopped wearing scarves and beanies- that she would.. wait for it... shave her head for me. so i seriously thought about things. this could be a life changer. the freedom of not having to worry about scarves or wigs. just being me. no pretending, no one else.
i told elly, that i would. she talked to my sisters and my mummy. tara agreed to shave her head with elly, mum had to ask work.
so we picked a day; that day being- today; Friday the 25th of September 2009(: because elly and mum both work in customer service, they were not able to shave their heads, but mums work did allow her to cut it short (she just cant have her scalp showing).

so this morning jaime came to support and tara and mum got their hair cut, and i took off my last scarf for the last time.

rick took some video footage that you will be able to see at a later date. (elly and dad had to go to work, but i love them both) then jaime and rick had to go. so tara, mum, freyr and i went to harbourtown. we splurged and had lunch at fasta pasta. then windowshopped(:

i love my family and i feel truly blessed.

here are what snaps we took:
