Somewhere Only We Know

This is officially it my dears. The last pre mission post. Yesterday my grandma, two aunts, and an uncle came into town. Today was my last day at work and I was given presents and cake. Tomorrow is the party at my parent's house. Sunday I get set apart as a missionary. Sometime this weekend I have to pack. Monday we leave for Utah. Wednesday at 1:30 PM I enter into the MTC.

You know what is crazy? I am not freaking out about this at all. That is very unlike me. You know how I was the last time I went to France. I sat on the plane thinking, "turn around, turn around. TURN. THE PLANE. AROUND!" This time I'm like, "yeah... I'm going." It is so nice to know that someone else is taking care of the travel details for me. Unless this is an "Other Side of Heaven" situation and I have to sit in a make shift storage prison because nobody is there to get me and the French didn't know I was coming. Oh well, at least I'll have my trumpet to keep me company... oh, wait.



Anyway. Here it is, the address. I know how terrible I was about writing all of my friends whilst they were missioning. Once each I believe. So, if that is all you can muster in the next 18 months I'll understand. I would LOVE to hear from you though. There is nothing better than letters in the mail. I will respond if you write me.

So, while I am in the MTC (about six weeks) my address will be:

Sister Lindsey Marie Reynolds
MTC Mailbox # 228
FRA-LYON 0402
2005 N 900 E
Provo, UT 84604-1793

 Then when I am in France it will be:

 Sister Lindsey Marie Reynolds
France Lyon Mission
Lyon Business Centre
59 rue de l'Abondance
69003 Lyon 
France

 my email address is: lindsey.reynolds@myldsmail.net

 I don't know what my email rules will be yet, so if you email me leave you address in the email and if I can't respond electronically I'll write you back.

 So I leave you with a Chanson de Mission and tell you I love you, and thanks for reading. I'll see you when I get back, because you better believe I'll be mission blogging like there is no tomorrow come August of next year.

Give it Up

So last night was The Format concert. It was so rad. How could it not be when they're from AZ? It was a nice little cap off to my summer, which is now almost over. My job as a TA has been verified, next week will be my last week as a paralegal, and the time has come for me to buy books and backpacks...I hope I don't get in a fight... sorry, random Billy Madison moment. Anyway, this summer has been fantabulous, yes I did just use that fake word. Being in Provo for the summer has been a good experience for me. Now I feel like something is just around the corner, besides school that is... I'm not quite sure what it is, but I know its going to be great whatever it is... Is it possible that it could be my fall semester opener... also known as the Mae concert on Sept. 6?? Its possible... however, I don't think thats it...I feel like this summer has been such a great learning experience to prepare me for some great new even that is going to come my way. Maybe I'm makin

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALICIA!!

Today is a very special day in the life of my little sister. She is turning 18. I remember when she was a little baby ( I was three when she was born, well, almost). So, Let me list some of the reasons I love my sister. 1. We shared a room for years, and fought all the time, what fun. 2. She lets me call her various and sundry nicknames. Some of the ones she finds less embarrassing are shushi(which actually isn't a Lindsey original, I'll admit) and gorilla. 3. She lets me provoke and tease her, and she always rises to the occasion by getting mad and offended ( she secretly likes it, don't worry). 4. She always loses at our laughing contests. 5. She finds me hilarious ( who doesn't??) 6. She makes weird noises, and always at the necessary moment. 7. She listens to my problems. 8. I know she cares about my happiness. 9.She speaks french with me. 10. She confides in me, and I trust her with my secrets too. See! Isn't she great? So happy birthday Alicia Face! And always

Keeping an Eye on the World, so Many Thousands of Feet Off the Ground

I can't believe its only Wednesday. Seriously, these past three days have been the longest 72 hours of my life... But in the end, lets just focus on the positive. Ladies and gents, I present to you.... my new (used) car! That's right, I finally purchased my own vehicle after years of bumming rides off of others, riding my bike (which I will still do lots), walking, and riding the bus (which, if I can help it, I will never, ever, do again!) Hooray for feeling like slightly more of an adult. Behold, the 2002 Saturn SL1 that now belongs to yours truly. I haven't named her yet. Please submit your ideas here.
