"Do all the good you can,

By all the means you can,

In all the ways you can,

In all the places you can,

At all the times you can,

To all the people you can,

As long as ever you can."

- John Wesley

I guess that this says it all....

Good Readin'

So If you know me you know that I am a big reader. I have a confession that I mostly read pop-lit but I have read a few books lately that of course need to be mentioned.

So first one- Of course Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows-no worries no spoilers here but this was an amazing book and I have to say that J.K. Rowling did justice to her creation. The book was wonderfully written and of course I cried tons when I read it. Its sad to me that essentially the magic that is Harry Potter is over but what a run!!

Second a book that has been flying all around me is the Twilight series by Stephanie Meyers. When you start this book you wonder if you are insane for reading a high school book but then after the first 100 pages you realize the gift that the author has of making everything seem so wonderfully human yet beautifully supernatural. I received the first two books in hardback for my birth day (thanks Abby and family!!) and I am reading them for the second time.

Third and then I'll close is a great book by Dean Koontz (pop-lit at its finest) called Odd Thomas. Yes its not new and I have read it several times but it is the top ten of my favorites. In this book Mr. Koontz creates a character that is so sweet and human that i feel as if he is a personal friend in fact I reread the book every time I want to "catch" up on Odd Thomas. Try it you will not be disappointed.

First Post

This is my first post on my blog so I guess Ill give a brief review of my life so far. I am 23 years old (barely) I was born July 24th, 1984 so I am a child of the 80's. I have lived a life in my 23 years thats for sure. I live in American Fork Utah right now but I just moved from Alabama. I have a lot of great friends here and I am so grateful for them. UT is awesome and one of the prettiest places on Earth...very very dry tho.

I am LDS, which helps explain the UT thing. I converted when I was 18 and it was the best decision that I have ever made. I love the church and its teaching helps me to become better. I know without a shadow of a doubt that I made the right decision and I have never regret it once.

Hmmm lets see ;) I graduated from Jacksonville State University in April of 2006. I love JSU and miss it terribly. It is truly a wonderful school and I made so many wonderful memories there. Go Gamecocks!!

I work for the Zyto Corporation and enjoy my job greatly. I am customer success supervisor and I get to help and teach people all day. I love to teach!

So, my life is just now returning to a semblance of normalcy. Or rather I am finally rising out of the ashes. My life completely changed right before 2007 and I am no longer the Jessica I once was. This blog is going to keep in touch with all my friends as well as provide a record of the transformation. So I am going to post my thoughts as well as my funny things i may come across and hopefully everyone will enjoy!!
