Oh Dear Me,

What a week you've had Miss Whitney Brown. Unfortunately it's only half way over. Besides the fact that your classes are crazy and the time is rolling slowly,.... you are doing very well. You've made some great friends here in this chapter that have taught you wonderful things. You've learned some very interesting information during your study's. You've smiled a thousand times.
Aside from all that has already happened during your third semester here you are still sailing your own ship. What a beautiful adventure it is though. The wind will blow you to inspiring and beautiful shores no doubt. The nights may getting cold and the days could be brutal but then there will be the beautiful mornings with a perfect breeze and slight mist. Why would i dwell on the slight drop in temperature when i could focus on the wide open ocean that welcomes me gratefully?
Oh but dear, there are so many things to learn on this journey. So many mistakes you will simply have to make. Your heart is full and ready and sometimes it's easy to become careless and irresponsible. But every mistake has a lesson and your heart can learn. Trust yourself. Don't let silly critics tell you that you are not worth much. You are honored to have an adventure as great as this. Hope well.
Sincerly,
The Deeper Part of Your Mind

Dear Mister Plan for My Life,

Please understand that the point of this note is not to complain or make a fuss at all, i simply am writing to make you aware of some very important information. I have been running awfully low on this substance that is unfortunately very necessary to be successful at all in this world. Of coarse I am talking about money. My good sir, unfortunately it's not as simple to make a living by just walking into this country with 13 dollars in your pocket. Trust me I've tried. I was thinking of maybe trying to pawn off some silver spoons like I saw in this movie once but I'm just not sure if my roommate's spoons are real silver or not. So then i thought maybe i would want to go play some music on the side of the street. But then i realized I'm in Rexburg and i don't know how to play the guitar. What am i to do Mister? A job is simply out of the question. I could always make an appearance at the plasma center but every time i attempt, i think back to the 7th grade when my science teacher wanted to test our blood. She pricked my finger and no blood came... so she tried again and... no blood came. I was already very nervous for the first one but by the third time i simply couldn't take it. I passed out on the floor and for the next year i was the most popular person in school. Not for the reason i would've dreamed when i was a little girl.
I am very simply at a loss. Don't you think it would be very pleasant for me to just run into some luck? Some suggestions could be; an undiscovered oil plant, the lottery, or i could be discovered by some big name dance company. I'm not really sure but i am open to any suggestion you might have involving money.
I hope you don't just think I am completely miserable because I am actually very happy but after declaring my independence and moving out of my house, I discovered that money is the only way to get anywhere anymore. It’s quite sad. If you could help me at all I would appreciate it significantly.
Here’s hoping!

Whitney says, "Hi"

Good Morning friends and family. Saturday morning is the best but its usually way hard for me to be productive because there is usually nothing planned :) love that! I love no plans. Mr. Cameron sent me some cute pictures and a tape of him talking to me today. What a sweet guy. He made a 2 hour long tape for me. It does seem funny that i haven't seen him for 10 months yet he still makes me so happy. I still get all giddy and giggly when i read his letters. Haha its kinda nerdy huh. He's still the most exciting thing in my world.
Collage is hard. Did you know that? This semester is so much work. I can't think of a time... before i was working on homework all day every day. It's paying off for sure but i can't help but to think its a bit crazy. Only like 2 months left of this semester and then i can have a nice break.




Big Juds? Um well the truth is i didn't remember the feeling you have while waddling out like you just ate a full cow, when i agreed to go again. It's all about the experience though right? That's what we had to keep telling each other. We simply must do this. How else will we tell everyone we know that we ate a pound burger?



Do you remember these picture booths? It's very hard to get all three people in there but its so worth it. Wouldn't you agree.
