Update: Wilderness

Well, I almost wrote a few days ago but I didn't have time to write a sufficient entry. I still don't have the time. Oh well.
After two other majors, over two and a half years, and way too much confusion---I am officially a communications major. Did I all tell you that? I got in last semester. I have a better idea oh what I want to do with my life...sort of.

I am going to school, working, etc. Not much has changed, eh? Not much has changed on the outside but so much is changing on the inside. The last six months have been the most intense learning experience of my life! I cannot begin to explain the depth the information given to me, the scope of the trials that have fallen upone me, or the height of the mountains before me.

So, in the CES fireside, Elder Tingey related a story about a family with two unmarried boys. The family attended the temple often and offered fervent prayers for the boys. They got married.
Now, I'm not marriage hungry or anything but I do seek the crowning ordinance of the temple. So, I invite all the Herd to join in prayer and temple attendance for Ked. Who knows, with all our faith combined maybe she'll walk right up and propose to me (some dream girl I don't know).
Anyway, now that that is over. Life is good. I don't know if I have anything else to say. The end?

Update: Cedar City

Well, I am still alive, and much to my chagrin I am currently in the process of trying to survive on a part time job while hoping and praying that a job will turn up so that I can get on with my life. The current plan is to get a full time job up north in the Salt Lake Area and then move up there in preparation for my attending grad school in the fall. I am almost fully applied to a Master's program at the U and then from there I hope to find a job with benefits that will pay enough that we can apply for a home loan to at least get a condo or something and get out of the renting pit of no returns. That is it for now I guess I might get some time to poke around face book a little more and see who I can see.

Christmas is upon us

Oh, boy! Did last month go by too quickly for anyone else besides me? It's already well into December, and we're getting closer to Christmas time. Melanie and I will be moving up north to Layton next week, and we will probably live there for two years or so. This summer we've decided to go to the curious land of Mini-appleless in Minnesota for Living Scriptures. Until then, I'll be growing my PPL Business as usual. It's been a blessing to be able to take 3 to 4 months away from business without it affecting our income or jeopardizing my ability to come back and still work for the company after the summer. (I could take years off if I really wanted to) I'm also thinking of taking up a part-time sales position at a car dealership or something, whatever will fit my time frame. So that's the plan for the Youngs, what's new for you guys?

Requesting Comments

I started a poll of sorts on my blog please visit and give feedback.  Comical or serious I don't mind.

Quaker Oats

So Jane and I got a really good deal a couple of months or granola bars and other quaker oats stuff and I am slowly whittling away the supply but we still have a lot in our house.  If anyone wants some quaker oats stuff you could probably drop by and grab a box.  Life is going pretty well I am getting to the end to the semester and I am glad for it.  Mostly glad for it, because then I am going to have to decide the next step in life.  Well, I guess that is what life is about choices and different paths we can take.  Good luck to all of you.

So if I make it part of my routine

I have been thinking and if I decide to make blogging a part of my daily routine I may just have a chance at making regular contributions. Things have been going pretty well lately although the fiasco of this last week was quite obnoxious.  I was supposed to take the GRE Physics test last Saturday, but lo and behold the proctors did not show.  I don't need the test exactly so I figured I would just ask for a refund and now I am seeing what happens with that.  I still get to take the GRE General test and we will see how that goes but I do feel a lot more comfortable with that.  Well that is my fun adventure for the last week.  Hope everyone is doing alright catch you later.

I am requesting Nerd help! Stat!

Ok, my dear brothers. Please do not go overboard with the following questions and/or statements.

I know this is a bit personal, but I am in need of some information if you would like to provide it. One of you has answered this question for me before and I still appreciate his words.

How did you know or decide that she was right?
Can you describe the feeling you had when you had finalized you decision to ask her?

Once again---do not go reading into this too far. And don't spread any rumors please. I have merely had some events happen that lead me to question certain ideas, feelings, and the whole process in general.

The situation is complicated. It always has been for me. That's about all I can say safely for now.

If you feel that this information is to sacred, then by all means do not share it.

Thank you brothers. I'll be communicating with you again sometime soon. But don't expect any announcements.

Ked :>)
