So it's been a couple of day that I've been out here. I went to the YSA church here in California, but have felt a little akward there since I'm only here for 6 weeks, so nobody wants to hook up with me since I'll be leaving shortly. At my rotations, I've really haven't been doing much except learing the computer system for walgreens. This would be good if I was planning to work at walgreens. However... I am not and therefore learning this system is useless to me. I also have started studying for the NAPLEX, albeit not very hard. Things have been pretty lonely here, especially since I cannot go to any of the church events like FHE or institute because I work during that time, Also, I am conflicted on some of policies of the church, since when I was with Seth, I felt the church's policies were holding me back from being myself and therefore when I was with him I went away from the guidelines and had an amazing week with him. I like the church and the people of the church, but I feel like who I want to be with is not LDS and therefore being with only LDS members isn't doing me any good. I'll figure it out, I guess.

Hey Jen,

Paul asked who was on the phone with me last night, and I told him you were kinda having a rough time. He said the nicest prayer in your behalf before we went to bed. Just know we're all on your side.

Just follow what you know is true. And since when were the things worth it, easy? Or even sometimes fun? Just try and keep things in perspective and your priorities in line.

Follow your Heavenly Fathers guidance and you'll never be lead in a direction you don't belong.

We love you, keep your chin up!
