I am fairly new to the whole "blogging" sphere, I had a previous blog that I almost thought of as a personal journal, here it is: http://karliedonohue.tumblr.com. Its raw, but thats how I want this, to never be sugar coated, but to be as real and honest as I can possibly make it. I am creating a blog for multiple reasons, one being that I feel like my life is constantly changing and the only way to truly remember it, is by writing it down. Memories are great, but memories with the addition of something in writing, make those times come back to life more than they ever could just floating around in my head. Two, I am serving a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and I need a place to put all my letters that I would otherwise E-mail home, but its too difficult to ask someone in my family to mass E-mail everyone, some are just too busy with their lives and others are just not too tech savvy, but I love you my beautiful family! So if you want it, then it will be all right here. Enjoy it, Read it, Grow with me (:
But first things are first, this is my blog, so therefore I feel like those reading it should know a small portion of me. Clearly I am a mormon and I am so proud of it, I worked hard to get to where I am. Ive been a member of the church since October 2nd, 2010 and I can honestly say it was the best day of my life and because of the choices I made that day, I have been so much happier. Sure, I have struggles, and trials, but they are so much easier when you know you have a loving Heavenly Father who cares and loves you and He has a plan for you and no matter what you're going through, you're never alone because Christ is walking beside you and even sometimes carrying you every part of the way. I am 21 years young, I grew up in a small cow town called Elk Grove, California which is right outside Sacramento. I appreciate where I grew up more and more, especially each time I visit. I am currently living in good ol' Provo, Utah. Otherwise known as "Happy Valley" and to be frank, I really like it here, besides the horrendous winters...yeah those can be gone. I went to San Francisco Academy of Art University for Multimedia Advertising, then Cosumnes River College, and then transferred to wonderful Utah Valley University which I love. Seriously, Im not joking. I am a proud wolverine! I am a communications major and had dreams of one day becoming a creative director for an advertising firm, if not my own but that may change the more I think of starting a family of my own and that the career choice I initially chose wouldn't enable me to be the active mother and wife I would hope to strive to be for my family, so I'm starting to turn towards Dental Hygiene, complete 180, I know! I love my family, I am the youngest of three siblings. I have an older brother named Kevin, and a twin sister named Kaylyn. My parents are divorced and my dad recently got remarried so my family has grown twice its size! I love dark chocolate, dolphins, the color blue, puppies, sunshine, the ocean, laughing, food (my close friends call me Chub Chub), and I love being outdoors and doing new things. That all sounds so typical, doesn't it? However, I assure you Im not you're typical girl, I hope that you'll grow to see that throughout this blog.
