Sister Missionaries
About 20% of all missionaries of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are sisters.
And in recent years the church sends out about 30,000 missionaries a year.
That is about 6,000 sister missionaries serving currently.
I have two sister friends about to enter the MTC.
One to the Budapest, Hungary mission and the other to Stockholm, Sweden!
How cool is that??
I know both will do great work in their assigned areas.

Bookstore Fudge
Did you know the BYU Bookstore sells about 3.5 tons of fudge every year?
According to my source- fudge is the number one income source for the bookstore.
Can you believe it?
I will... by the mere fact that it is so delicious! mmm.. :)
What is something random you learned today?
I puchased these 3 books today..
Gotta love book store sales and religious books.
Because 1/5 of the world's population is Muslim or Islamic I am anxious to read Muhammad! :)

Welcome and the Beginning!
I began writing in my journal today, and there are so many things I would love to share with the world that I learn everyday.
I feel like such an advocate for education.
Education really is POWER. I have never realized it more then in this, my twenty-second year of life. I love to learn! And there is probably no greater feeling than picking up a book that interests you and reading it! Or researching a topic you want to learn more about and realizing it.
What have you learned today??
