Hey, if you've been reading my blogs up to this point, you'll know some things about me, but if you haven't been following too well, I'll give you some details about me, that might be important to know. First off, I'm Zelos, I'm a senior in high school, and within my first hour of school I realized that I'm suffering from one of the most severe cases of senior-itis ever...it's kind of miserable, but I'm dealing fairly well. I've got awesome friends that are there whenever I need a support group, a pick-me-up, something to do on a Friday night, or someone who will ride around town with me, even though I've nearly killed them about a thousand times. Heck without my friends, life would be miserable, thank goodness for them.
I'm also lovin' my family (for the most part). I've got a pretty awesome one. My parents and I have our disagreements (practically everyday now), but we deal well with one another, and survive (which some days feels like a miracle). My siblings are all graduated and moved out, but they're definitely some of the coolest people ever. I have an older brother who got married about two years ago, no kids, but still fun to hang out with. I've got an older sister, who had a kid just about two years ago (so many things changed in the year 2008). She, her husband, and my nephew are some of my favorite people ever. The best thing is that my nephew finally knows my name. It's always fun when he starts saying my name. I've got another brother who's on a mission in Boise Idaho (we were all kinda surprised by that call). Even though it started out difficult for him, he's doing better now, so it's all good.
Let me throw this straight out there. I am a Member of the Church of Jesus Christ, and that's where I belong. You'll likely see me at my church building early in the morning every school day, and sometimes you'll see me with my Book of Mormon out at school. I'm not ashamed, and I'm not backing down on my standards. I love my religion, and I know that it is true. I've felt such a feeling of peace and love every time I've prayed, opened my scriptures, and lived the standards that I'm encouraged to keep.
Heck, that's a good enough intro. If you wanna know more, keep reading. If I sound like a genuinely boring person, I'm sorry. I'm happy with who I am. It took me seventeen years to get to this point, but now I don't really care whether you like me or not. I like being liked, but heck, I'm not here to impress anyone. I'm here to live worthy to be an instrument in my Heavenly Father's hands.
So yeah, that was kinda in your face, but it's how I feel, so I'm not gonna take it back.
And that's me in a nutshell.
Zelos.
Sounds awesome. Looking forward to reading another year's worth of your blog. :)
