Sometimes I wake up really late. It really blows my day to smitherines. Im supposed to have priced a birthday party package for some lady by this point in the day. But here I sit. In my bed. Wearing just my undies. Blogging so I dont have to get ready for work. Sometimes I am delightfully pitiful. :D
Also, any tips for waking up?
"We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; indeed, we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul--We believe all things, we hope all things, we have endured many things, and hope to be able to endure all things. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things." -The Thirteenth Article of Faith

Yes. I am a crazy person.
Wow. Its been a while. It's late and I couldn't sleep and I thought that it would be a good time to write a new post.
The semester ended well. I survived exams and got all my homework done and that's great and all. I moved into the apartment that I will be living in for the rest of forever as well. Its nice. And the guys I am living with are just crazy enough to not judge me too much, so I cant complain.
But the REAL thing that has been keeping me busy is the business. Yep. I own a business. My parents opened an ice cream parlor a few years ago, and at the beginning of this month, they said, "Here ya go!". So here I go.
They had been very prayerful about the decision. Handing over ANYTHING to a 21 year old junior in college is a big decision.....but a business? CRAZY. The thing is, I felt like I was supposed to do it. Not only that, but I actually WANTED to. CRAZIER. So I made the leap and quit both of my jobs. Boss #1 said good luck and boss #2 said I was making a mistake. Either way, I am now officially jobless (except for the ice cream parlor) and have a lot to do If I want to be successful.
But as scared as I am, I'm pretty excited. I know I'm supposed to be doing it. Ive been prayerful about this myself and it just feels RIGHT. Yes, I understand that running a business is lots of time and very hard work. Yes, I understand that keeping my grades up during the semester will be a challenge (and keeping my waist size down will be a miracle as well). But it can be done.
I mean, after all, I AM Nate Pence. Right?
