This is the first time I have been back since I left there back in April. It has been over a year since I graduated from college. Lets look back at what I have accomplished in my first full year of grown up life!<div>--Got my first grown up job with a salary. And yet I still get to have snack at work. Bring on the string cheese, go gurts and chocolate milk!</div><div>--Put my first cd on i-tunes. Its call "This is for You," its not the other stuff from Katie Lee... that stuff is a little strange.

Its very social and I feel very at home there.</div><div>--Joined a polynesian gospel choir! Who knew I had soul!?</div><div>--Ok... I'm having a very had time thinking of grown up accomplishments. My life is sadder than I thought.</div><div>--Found my favorite movie maybe ever... well after Heavyweights. Bandslam! Such a great movie!!</div><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 270px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnHPn7_72zE6wZJ9YQq9PrAW-sqF5iTPrxW5v8pGnnYLRS7dH4NhVjjr5f8CH_yZowGOeTQ8OMniqEV-DAUVyjewkqOJKbTiwS5E6FVnKQMdIOUzIS2sRdkcAlFKj4uqClbaWqPDnjoBY/s400/BandslamPoster.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5469723551051655154" /><div>--I actually love my grown up job 95% of the time! That is a huge accomplishment!</div><div>--I almost started loving working out... it lasted about a week.</div><div>--Went to some awesome concerts! Ingrid Michaelson, April Meservy, Debra Fotheringham, Ryan Innes, Jarrett Burns, Kate Voegele, Matthew Perryman Jones, Demi Lovato.</div><div>--April Meservy told me she loved my music!</div><div>-- I signed up for a summer lds music industry workshop. I'm one step closer to getting famous!</div><div>--I took pictures on train tracks! Something I have always wanted to do!</div><div>--I almost signed up to take a balloon art class! Sadly... I did not. Maybe in a few months I will, or possibly a Hula Hooping for adults class!</div><div>--I pay my own bills! I have my own car! I even got new tires on my car! </div><div><br /></div><div>And that is my grown up life in a nutshell! Boring I know...

I went into a stall I don't usually use. My first thought was that it was kind of dirty. But I had to go, so I went about my business. I looked over at the side wall of the stall and there was something that looked like blood... gross. And then I look up and in blood was a name. MY NAME. Yes Katie... spelled in blood in the stall. Don't ask me how it got there... creepy. As far as I know I was part of the filming for a low budget horror movie.

Ha... so redneck but so wonderful!)</div><div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div>It was everything I remembered about it! So so wonderful! Now lets back up a bit. I stink at all sports. Every single one. The best I ever get is mediocre at wimpy sports like bowling and badminton. But for some reason the intensity of Broom Hockey makes my little heart do cartwheels! For those of you that don't understand what Broom Hockey is, let me educate you!</div><div><br /></div><div>You start with sticks with a triangle shaped rubber broom like things on the end. Then, you venture onto the ice with no skates, just your shoes. Its set up like regular hockey with goalies and what not. Just imagine Mighty Ducks with brooms and you are there. The best part about it is that no one is really very good at it! Its a whole lot of falling and running back and forth in an effort to try to swing at a little ball. According to wikipedia, "<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">At a social level, broomball is enjoyable for all players regardless of sporting skill. you do not need any skills." No wonder I love this sport! You need no skills! Perfect for a skill-less? person like me!</span></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" line-height: 19px;font-size:medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" line-height: 19px;font-size:medium;">I highly recommend that you try this sport! Its such a rush! </span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" line-height: 19px;font-size:medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" line-height: 19px;font-size:medium;">P.S.--Look for it in the upcoming olympics. They are trying to get it in! I would be glued to the T.V.!</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:sans-serif, serif;font-size:100%;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" line-height: 19px;font-size:13px;"><br /></span></span></div></div>Katie Leehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09291971389817255275noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8069600183757427664.post-38074879515350162202009-12-07T19:53:00.001-08:002009-12-07T20:11:19.458-08:00Craving New Music?

But I survived and one parent even cried she was so happy! I also had my interview for efy this week which I think went pretty well. It was way chill. Just me and my friend jason and two administrators I feel very comfortable with. Then I spent a lovely evening with Sam, Jason and Tristan just catching up. It was so refreshing. Then today was a day. School was kind of nuts! All I wanted to do after school was relax with some friends. But everyone I talked to was busy! So I ended up going to my sisters performance up at East High all by myself which kinda sucked. I hate going places by myself. And after I was supposed to see a movie with a friend... but he bailed at the last minute. So here's to Friday nights all by myself! I think for Saturday I will take myself out to the movies. And buy myself a large porcorn.</div><div><br /></div>Katie Leehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09291971389817255275noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8069600183757427664.post-89812320458015875262009-10-05T19:19:00.000-07:002009-10-05T19:37:14.367-07:00These are a few of my favorite thingsFavorite things about Utah so far.(In no particular order... except when they came to my mind)<div><br /></div><div><ul><li>So many friends are within a short drive.</li><li>Efy counselors abound.

For whatever reason I have not been getting much out of my scripture reading and my prayers have been pretty lackluster. I haven't attended the temple much either. But this week I decided I needed to really make a change. Monday I went to the church history museum and so many things there pricked my heart. Tuesday I went to the temple and tonight I went to institute. Even at the beginning of institute tonight I still had that empty feeling but my institute teacher said something that made all that change. He said that we have to make sure we schedule in the time for spiritual things because with all the things we have to do everyday it will get lost in the shuffle. This seems so simple but it really made me think back to when I took a scripture study class and we had to study our scriptures for 30 minutes a day, free of distractions and write things down. I felt like I really knew the Savior during that time. I want so desperately to do that again. But in my carnal stupid mind I find so many dumb things to put in the place of that and end up trying to squish scripture study in at the end of the day. So here's to trying to change that!!<div><br /></div><div>The other thing that was amazing to me tonight was that I truly figured out what it means to be like a child. It didn't have anything to do with the lesson tonight, but amidst all my mind tangents I realized this incredible thing! At school with my preschoolers there are times throughout the day where they don't think they can do something or are afraid and need reassurance. This happens over and over again and I have to remind them that they need to trust me and that everything will be ok and they will see their parents soon. And it dawned on me tonight. The way they feel is just how I feel towards my Heavenly Father. So many times I am terrified that I won't be able to do what I need to do or I just feel like no one cares to see how I'm feeling or that I am so miserably alone. I feel like I am running to the Lord to comfort me over and over again and I know that he will comfort me, BUT here is where I often go wrong. I forget to trust that Heavenly Father knows all things and knows us so personally that whatever we tell him He already knows. Its that trust that allows Him into our lifes. Those little children that I teach taught me something invaluable. We have to trust in our Heavenly Father and know that HE WILL NOT FAIL US, no matter how many times we think we have failed ourselves! </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div>Katie Leehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09291971389817255275noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8069600183757427664.post-30789981151738933632009-08-24T16:04:00.000-07:002009-08-24T16:16:08.238-07:00The Katie and Sam Show<iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dwEZcN_ukAMGkXrPDCAMGoR7dvZtItY48zSD04EO9ocwxcrBGO6b25bLmMsob1R7ePshhKgGhF2k3fWgTj0_A' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe><div>This is something that Sam and I made while I was on Site Office duty.

To trust Him means, of course, trying to do all that He says. There would be no sense in saying you trusted a person if you would not take his advice. Thus if you have really handed yourself over to Him, it must follow that you are trying to obey Him. But trying in a new way, a less worried way. Not doing these things in order to be saved, but because He has begun to save you already. Not hoping to get to Heaven as a reward for your actions, but inevitably wanting to act in a certain way because a first faint gleam of Heaven is already inside you.”</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">“Now, once again, what God cares about is not exactly our actions. What he cares about is that we should be creatures of a certain kind or quality—the kind of creatures He intended us to be—creatures related to Himself in a certain way. I do not add ‘and related to one another in a certain way,’ because that is included: if you are right with Him you will inevitably be right with all your fellow creatures.”</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><br /></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">Ya… incredible!

I was sitting in the airport feeling terribly exhausted from being out in the sun for so long, like so terrible I felt like I was going to vomit. But then I got in the plane and the plane kept going up. I looked out my window and saw the most incredible sight! It was the sun setting on the horizon. It was bright red and the clouds looked like blueberry cotton candy! It made me so incredibly grateful for everything I have! I was complaining so much to myself about how I felt physically and that incredible beauty jolted that out of me and made me immediately thank my Heavenly Father and turn to my scriptures!<div><br /></div><div> I turned to Mosiah 14 which is Isaiah's words about how the Savior willingly suffered for us all. I felt so incredibly thankful for that sacrifice. He suffered everything imaginable to save everyone that has ever lived. But I know he would have still suffered that if it was only for me. That is a miracle to me! The I came to a verse in chapter 16 that said, " But remember that he that persists in his own carnal nature and goes on in the ways of sin and rebellion against God, remaineth in his fallen state and the devil hath all power over him."</div><div><br /></div><div> I realized that I have been so wrong lately. I have been so carnal and it has truly let Satan into my life. I don't think I realized how far I had let myself stray from the strait and narrow. I know that I have so much more I need to do and my faith needs to increase tenfold! I know that if I continue in this state that I will not be able to return to live with my Heavenly Father and that terrifies me. I want to be better and I will work everyday to remember my Savior's love for me.<br /></div>Katie Leehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09291971389817255275noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8069600183757427664.post-52777444482329435622009-02-15T20:10:00.000-08:002009-02-15T20:16:02.928-08:00Reasons I want to be a teacher...1.

Week of Feb. 8-15 <!--StartFragment--> <p class="MsoNormal">There are so many scriptures that made an impression on me this week. But I want to start of by talking about something not from the scriptures. It is Sunday night and this week has been much like others I have had lately. It seems that I just move from day to day not truly enjoying what life has to offer me. I find myself wasting time on things that won’t make me happy and not really trying to make any changes. Tonight I was playing on my computer when I had the urge to go to Lds.org. They had a link to Mormon Messages on YouTube. I clicked on the link and I was immediately drawn to Elder Worthlin’s words, Come What May and Love It. I had long since forgotten about this talk. Hearing those words once again reminded me that I have control over how I handle my life and my feelings. If I choose to be unhappy in my situation then that is all I will ever be. But if I choose to love whatever comes my ways then I will start to see the splendor of life and the love of my Heavenly Father that puts things in my path to test my love for Him.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal">Another thing that hit me this week is how crafty Satan can be. In 2 Nephi 28:21 it says, “ He will pacify and lull them away into carnal security that they will say: All is well in Zion… and leadeth them carefully down to hell.” Satans way is not too hit us with a big temptation. He wants to get us in the little things. In being unkind to those around us, forgetting to pray, not making time for scripture study,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>or feeling sorry for ourselves.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>He will lead us carefully until we are much farther down than we ever realized. Luckily, there is the great plan of happiness that allows us to repent and to walk back into the light no matter how many times we fall. What a wonderful plan our father has prepared for us. </p> <!--EndFragment--> Katie Leehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09291971389817255275noreply@blogger.com0
