...The MTC is....
Sooooo Im in provo packing and getting ready to head to the MTC tomorrow. Really weird feelings is all I can say on how I feel. I am so grateful to be going but I really have to no idea what to expect. The best advice i've gotten is to forget myself and serve. Sounds simple to me!
my mom and dads flight were at 6:30 am and mine was at 7:30. So glad I had an extra day in provo instead of going straight to the MTC. We got to Provo and got my Motor vehicle report. my mom was super proud that I didn't have any arrests on my record! Then of course I took them to Jdawgs and they loved it! We shopped and shopped and got all the last few things I needed. I was so happy that I got to see Jessica Maloney today. We met up and had my last meal paid by my dad at Pf changs. It never tasted that good as it did tonight!!!!
I am so excited to tell everyone about the gospel and share with everyone my experiences. Please write me if you have time to say hello. You CAN send me candy or cookies. Im totally okay with that! Also, Thank you so much for everyone that came to my farewell! So much fun to see everyone, one last time.

...Rachels actually doing it
Its true. Lots of non believers out there but I AM going on a mission. To Fresno California: spanish speaking. My email address is rachelj@myldsmail.net and if you want to subscribe to my blog click the link on the side. My plan is to email my letters and pictures to my family to them and to my blog email. so I can't update it, some one else will!
I havent really started packing up until last friday.
I was avoiding it because I ABSOLUTELY hate packing. so I just laid out my clothes and I think that's good enough for now. Play time because my summer semester ended yesterday and I finally get a summer until Monday night, when I get set apart.......I am nervous but excited. I honestly don't know what to expect because when I think of the MTC I think of a giant long EFY session and I loved EFY so I mean I think I'll be fine, right? and If I think of only others and not of how much ill miss shopping at Sephora and getting goodies from them or Nordstrom's half-yearly. I think ill be fine...... I really do love serving I mean that is why I am going, so I probably should? I'm so excited to help people in every way possible. I'm to teach people what I know about the church. If they see how happy and (stylish) I am, I mean they have to join right? Duh. but I have to work on another strategy to convert though. No flirting to converting like in high school!
Another thing I have a concern about is the bikes. My mission president which is no longer the mission president said that the bike this is for real, he wasnt joking, like I thought he was. He sounds serious like I would be doing a lot of biking............. my New mission President is this guy (You might know Him from the evil dad from "desperate housewives or the coach in "Forever strong:

[/caption]
Im kidding. Its actually the guy he is playing in the movie "Forever strong" President Larry Gelwix, the real Highland Rugby Coach:
I heard he is really really great. I can't wait!!! Anyway. I'm not sure how the riding bikes thing will work out. In a skirt, any advice???? All I know is that my legs will be great by the end of the 18 months.

... I might die
So first to update. I went on my cruise to the Bahamas. It was a success. (side-note don't go with 2 two-year olds) Disney cruises aren't the biggest but they are the nicest and bestest.... Then it was right to work with finishing my mission papers. (oh by the way I'm going on a mission) hopefully to Italy. I hear if you pray really hard that's where you'll go... So I went to the doctors 3 weeks ago and took a urine sample for my physical. came back negative. Had to do it again. Still negative. Did it again. oh you guessed it still negative. I drank so much water during that time. I consider myself pretty healthy. so Today I went in hoping that my pee would be a good pee. WRONG. So my doctor pulls me into his office and said that we might need to do an ultrasound of the kidneys to make sure everything is okay! That was about the worst thing to say to a hypochondriac like me! My kidneys could be failing as we speak and I could have 3 more days to live... He realizes how I've been waiting for the urine sample to sign off my papers for my mission. So he signs them and I sent them to the stake president!!! EASY. (other than dying) SO FOR EVERYONE WONDERING I WILL HOPEFULLY GET MY CALL APRIL 28th! I'm ready to leave Utah. I miss my family a lot and want to get going on this whole mission thing.
