Last weekend. Last Saturday. In Utah.

 Good morning dear people! 

I had to delete that last post, I am sure I didn't quite think it through and I most certainly had almost all filters off hahhha. At least most of them and that is just plain stupid. I am sometimes tired when I write and then the TRUTH (?) comes out, or parts of it... My opinions are very strong most of the time and I don't need to alienate my readers further and/or make them think I am completely cuckoo. I am a little cuckoo, but honestly, there are far more people in the world who are cuckoo to the same degree, or maybe even more cuckoo than me...

I just have a lot to say! 

Being bullied in school and at church and by people who have once called me their friend, that is not easy. In school I was a teeny tiny bit chubby, like maybe 5 kilos too heavy or something, so I was called fatso. EVERY DAY for 10 years I was bullied in school. Then my mini mission came and I couldn't sleep or rest for two weeks, maybe 4 hours a night. Try to survive THAT without going nutso, good luck! 

The bullying at church has exclusively been by members of my own ward. One of my friends who is not a a member anymore, hears rumors and gossip from her mom, and that has been passed on by other "ladies" in the church, for over a decade. They tell me often what people have said. I don't tell them what they say about them, because I am a decent human being.

I did not realize how much gossip ladies in my ward like to talk. 

But their opinion doesn't matter. 




And their opinions shouldn't be any of my business but when my other friends tell me what other say...
It is really mean and stupid of them really. They are a bit confused themselves, I think...
It has made me feel so much anxiety.

Speaking of anxiety! I have had one moment I sobbed here, one day that I was feeling low, but most of my visit here has been so joyful, active and happy! I am a lot healthier here. I have so much more energy. And my friends are so nice.

I will always remember the good times.

I am so grateful for this past month here <3 I will never forget it.

I have learned a lot and become stronger.

I am a little tired, I think I need a nap! Good night! :)
More later!

 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...
