Ooh please send pictures of the dresses, I want to see!! ASOS is a good place to check, they let you specify what you really want so you can easily sort through all the oddly trendy stuff. ModCloth is kind of fun too, but sometimes hit and miss. Piper and Scoot and Clad and Cloth were two of my favorites, but their dresses are a little more on the casual side. Where have you gotten your dresses from? What style are they?
So you're probably going to be down in Provo today then? If you drive by the temple around 1:30, you might see me and my district playing soccer haha, that's the plan right now. I'm so happy everyone did so well in school, I seriously love and adore my little siblings so much. No offense to you or dad or Stewart, but thinking about them gets me the most homesick haha.
Honestly though, I've maybe been homesick like twice the whole time I've been here and it's been brief. I've been really really happy here, I think for lots of reasons, but two have stuck out to me. One; life is just so simple, and I have a purpose. Every day goes well because I know exactly what I'm here to do and I have nothing else to worry about (except for the fact that I've already gained two pounds....) The other is the effect the Spirit has on my attitude. I was feeling a little frustrated during week one because I had the mentality that the second I got to the MTC I'd be feeling just those intense Spiritual feelings all. the. time. And I wasn't so I was kind of getting down on myself. Then Sorella Dean said one night "You know what? I've never been happier than I am here" and it just BOOM hit me. The fact that I have been so happy is just a manifestation of the spirit. Even though I haven't had goosebumps 100% of the time, I've been so happy because I've had the constant presence of the spirit.
I'm loving the energy at the MTC.
Send pictures of you guys getting donuts!!!
Lots of love,
Sorella Maxfield
