Hello there! "Transfers" for me today!

 Good morning from Payson!

Today I am leaving the Perkins's home and going back to Ellinor, my friend from Sweden who lives in Pleasant Grove. I have loved staying in both places. Here the Perkins's are the age of my parents (roughly) and I call this HOME and I call them MA and PA :) I am so happy to be their bonus daughter, they are so nice and spoil me with Pepsi! I visited their ward on Sunday and I felt like I could fit well into their relief society lol. I even went to the temple with the relief society president and we went shopping yesterday to Deseret Book in Spanish Fork.

About that... I saw an elder leaving the store and I got a feeling and a thought in my head:

"Talk to that elder, he is going to Finland!!!" 

But I didn't do it. I ignored the prompting. I feel so bad about it still... But I know his name is Olsen/Olson and that he is from Arizona! :) It is so fun that I at least saw him. I am still kicking myself about it though... Life is Tough LOL.

I got a message from a friend yesterday whom I haven't seen since March. It was nice.


I visited the Payson, Utah temple on Tuesday with my new friend Kira.
It is SO beautiful! I also have learned that every temple is different! I see it in the details.
This Temple has a kind of "DNA" string in it's stained glass details and it is so smart and pretty!
Because we're all made of the same stuff! Very good.

I didn't sleep so well last night. I went to bed 22-23 and woke up before 5 AM. It's okay. I can nap later... I have bought a few Barbies during my trip here and a few other fashion dolls, as gifts and for myself. I also have found a few journals. A reading journal, a self care journal and a "normal" journal. 

I also found a new Temple dress yesterday. 

I have loved staying at here in Payson. On Saturday I am going with Ellinor  (who lives in Pleasant Grove)  and her family to BRYCE CANYON! :) WoW! It will be so nice. I have never been "officially stargazing" lol. We have a hotel to stay at and we will stay there one night.

I am so grateful for this trip.

It is so amazing to be here...

Never mind going out with a guy. I don't think anybody wants to, and that's their right. They are maybe scared of me. Well, they don't need to see me. IF they are afraid, that is pretty silly. As some people who know me better have realized long ago. 

I am going to have a nice slow morning and start to pack a little for my transfer...

See ya! :)

About mental health and the stigma

 Dear readers, A moment ago I finally realized why I have the urgent and important need to write a lot. Especially about mental health, my personal experiences and all the knowledge and wisdom that I have gathered during these years. I want to raise awareness, I want to help remove the stigma, I want to tell my story. In August 2027 my mental health journey started 30 years ago, when I was 17 years old. It is a kind of celebration for me. How far I have made it, how strong and resilient I have become. It has taught me so much. At times I know more than the doctors and nurses. I am a pro. I have learned everything about the medicines that I have been given. A few days ago it hit me, I am not a loser and I have not lost this fight with my mental heath problems. I have conquered the problems, it has not overcome my mind or soul. Anyway, the way it all started was that I was bullied in school for 10 years. Other places I spent time in were not completely safe either. When I was 17 year...

Light the world! :)

 Good afternoon from Jakobstad!  Happy Christmas time! :) I hope whoever reads this, will be happy and feel joy and keep on going no matter what is thrown at them. I believe you can do it! I believe everyone can endure through all the difficulties in their lives. In Finland we have this thing called SISU. Google it... I am happy today. I have napped a lot and my parents are still napping. The missionaries in this ward are coming to visit us tonight and brining us the sacrament and my parents will meet the new elder here in this ward. He is from Washington state and he knows some of my best missionary friends. :) I love meeting new people who know my people lol. Yesterday we had the Jakobstad's ward Christmas party. It was fun. Today I was too tired to go to church. My dad is really sick and we take care of him with my mom 24/7.  My cats are doing well, they love visiting my parents, their grandparents... lol. They love snuggling with my mom and they love her when she give...

the Temple again :)

Good morning from Pleasant Grove, Utah, USA! Yesterday I visited my fourth Temple during my trip here in Utah. Now I have visited FOUR Temples here in Utah.  Tomorrow I am going to the Orem, Utah Temple. Oh, the one I went to yesterday with my friend, is the Provo center Temple. It looks stunning in the evening... The lights around it and the beauty of the garden there, and of course the Temple it self. I really love going to the Temple. Now I understand why so many Temples are being announced all the time in Utah! Because people go there so often here! It is always booked full on any given day... I need to book my seat very early. It is amazing! My mom is calling me soon, better write quick! :D  After the Temple me and my friend walked around the Temple grounds, almost ordered Domino's to a random ledge/edge we found to sit on, but were afraid we were "loitering"... So when the police car arrive, we were already on our way from the place we found. We went to the pizza pl...
