It has been a while since I've posted to this blog. Since I have posted I've completed another semester at BYUI, spent Christmas with my family, and moved to Vernal. Vernal? Where's Vernal? Why would anyone move there? Some days those questions feel pretty legitimate. Well when I first decided to move here there were many job opportunities everywhere. Vernal is supported mostly by the natural gas that is drilled for here. And along with oil and natural gas comes dinosaurs, so in case you're wondering dinosaurs is the theme of this town, they're everywhere. There is even a dinosaur museum here, not to mention the dinosaur beds you can visit and try your luck at finding dinosaur bones.

Well fear and the economy struck Vernal right before I arrived here. Fear that Obama might try to shut down the oil fields is in every one's minds. That fear has spread through every business and put everyone on a hiring freeze. I haven't given up hope yet and keep looking for employment. Yes, that means I still have yet to secure employment.

Being unemployed though has left me with no excuse to not spend some actual quality time with my scriptures. So I now spend one to three hours a day in the scriptures instead of two to five minutes. I also decided that since the gospel is something to share with everyone and anyone that I would start a blog containing thoughts and insights that I gain from my studies. My disclaimer for those who might read it is this: I am not a prophet, what I post is what I learn at my level and comes as revelation or findings to me and may not be for you and certainly doesn't bind you to live by anything I say, only the spirit can guide you in what you should live, if you have any further insights or thoughts please make a comment I love learning from you too.

This is an update on my life as of right now minus some details, because this is only a brief summary.
