South Africa here i come!!!!

Dear everyone!!!

With the beginning of the new year comes more opportunities to serve the Lord and His people. Sun Valley Community Church (my fantastic church home) partners with a ministry called Helping Hands in Africa. Their mission statement is, "dedicated to restoring hope in disadvantaged communities by providing opportunities for the individuals in the community that will equip them to take responsibility for their own economic, health, educational, social and spiritual upliftment." Helping Hands has devoted programs to address issues that come about due to extreme poverty: AIDS prevention and patient care, Orphan Intervention, Foster Care, Poverty Alleviation, Social Grant Access, After School Learning Centers and much more. On June 2, 2011, 11 other adults and I will be traveling to Cape Town, South Africa for a week to partner with Helping Hands. Our group will be the first to stay in Cape Town and help the organization set up their programs. There, we will be assisting the organization in any way they need as well as helping out with the feeding program and just loving on the children and families. Sounds amazing, doesn't it? I know its a big commitment, but I am ready for it! I want to experience God in a whole new way and I want to show the people of South Africa the same wonderful and generous love our God has shown me. For more information on Helping Hands in Africa, you can visit their website at http://www.helpinghandsinafrica.org/.

Siguatepeque, Honduras 2010

In order for this mission to be possible, my team and I are going to need your partnership in financial support and prayer. I cannot do this without you. Each team member is responsible for raising $3,700 by April 28th. Would you pray and consider supporting me? If you feel led to support me financially, you can mail a check to my home address.

ponder. platypus. loquacious. triceratops. wigwam.

^^^^^^ my top 5 favorite words ever. very fun to say.

anywhoooooo! So my second semester of college has begun. dun dun dun. not too excited about it. My classes aren't that bad or anything, im just tired of all the basics, i want to get into stuff that actually relates to my career!! Hopefully, once im done with this semester its of to NMSU!!(: wooo!!!! To be honest, kinda freaked out about that, but in a good way. Living in a new state, going to a new campus, wont know anyone at school. Bring it on. lol but seriously, im excited to start this new part of my life. Maybe grow up a lil more since ill finally be on my own. Woooo!! Cant wait to see what NMSU has in store for me!!(:

Went an hiked to the top of the Superstition mountains

a few weekends ago! Thought i was gonna die lol but nope! i was making it to the top, no ifs ands or butttttts! an we did it!!! made it up in about 2 hours and 7 min. and oh my goodness, the view is incredible! you dont realize how far up you are until you see that if you fall, you will die. no question about it lol crazy! but totally awesome! Hopefully doing that hike again for my birthday(:

ummm got my ear pierced! (the messed up one that ive gotten pierced about 5 times but it never healed lol) my bestie Jacque did it for me! :p but before that, i got to pierce her ear! muahah!(; good thing is, they are both healed up now and were still best friends!! hahah

so one of my classes this semester is a philosophy class which i already love. it scares me at times, specially when we talk about religion and God though. Like last semester in my anthropology class, my professor talked about religion and how in todays society, when people question their faith, people see that as a sign of weakness or whatever. Well, i dont. I admit some of the talks we have already had about God have brought up questions, not nescessarily doubts but questions, and made me really think things through. But, Gods not going to get mad at me for questioning things. With these questions usually come answers that help strengthen my relationship with God. If i didnt question things, then i truly dont care. ya know? just a thought!

my dad got to come home for this past weekend(: i sure do miss him when hes gone! Sucks getting to see him for only a few days every few weeks. But luckily this time when he was home, i got him for a whole day, just me an him!!!(: he of course wanted to be productive and do things around the house or work on the cars an stuff so i decided to take advantage of that. We worked on my jeep together. and let me tell you, i havent had that much fun with my dad in a long time! who would have thought workin on a jeep, gettin grease under your nails, learning about car parts would be so fun! best father daughter date ever(:

^ the story behind the smiley face....

was painting at church with katelyn and jacque. The guy in charge came over and was surprised at how clean we were after hours of painting which then started a paint fight between us girls. Finally called a truce, or so i thought, i bent down to get paint on my brush and katelyn decided to paint two dots on my butt. Then she of course had to make it look like something, so she added the mouth. haha an yeah, the paint wouldnt come out so now these are my painting/work out/cleaning shorts.

Well, thats all i got for you today! hope you enjoyed hearing about my boring life! lol now i get to go do homework! wooo!.....

peace!

why hello there 2011, ive been expecting you..

Man, I havent been on here in FOREVER!!! Life has just been crazy busy.....as usual....anyways ill just give you a quick run down on the past month.........

December: umm got pretty hectic and stressful with finals and all that.

But, long story short got A's in all my classes except calculus, i got a B, but a very high B!(: an i studied

my butt off for that final so im proud of the grade i got(:

----> Went dove hunting with my brothers an Angie, dont remember when but it was awesome!!! There are four birds, only three have heads...muahahaha!

lets see....oh Thanksgiving! i know thats not in December but i didnt talk about it; it was quite fantastic! My cousins from Utah came down and my cousins from Cali. We had a blast together. Those are the best holidays is when you can just hang out with your family and have a good time. I just love them(:

Now ill skip to CHRISTmas because i really dont remember much lol CHRISTmas was quite fantastic as well! Once again, another time to hang out with the family! Plus this was my first year as an "adult" so i got to participate in the white elephant exchange! I scored some pretty

sweet tools (it was the gift my dad brought lol) there was no rule against it! ;p Then CHRISTmas morning was great too!!! I was house sitting so i didnt get to wake up at my house but i drove over early and only my dad was awake lol then my brother an his wife came over an we opened presents. Fun stuff!! Hung out the rest of the day then gave them my present that night, The grand opening of the Staffeldt Family Drive In! We sat outside an watched, Despicable Me on a huge screen using a projector. It was AWESOME!!(:

Ugly Sweater Party at Jacques(: fun times!!

Kinda had a rough week after Christmas though, quite a bummer! Luckily my friends were persistent an ignored my stubbornness. I love them(: nothin beats a late night run to Dennys for cheesecake or taco bell for crappy food! ;p

On a much more serious note, for those of you who may not know, my best friend Samantha is struggling in her battle with cancer. I got to visit her in the hospital last thursday, one of the hardest hospital visits i have ever had. So please, please, please keep her in your prayers! I cant lose her.

Got to visit my baby girl Abby, i miss having a goat in my back yard more than you can imagine! :/ but shes got a good home now.

In the last week of December, i developed a love for two new things; yoga and painting. Got me a sweet yoga mat an work out DVD for CHRISTmas, and since ive started workin out an eating better, ive lost 5lbs already!!! My goal was to be 115 bef

ore 2010 was over, an SUCCESS!!(: Now the painting was inspired by reading a book i got from my brother an his wife for Christmas, Kat Von D's High Voltage Tattoo book. Very

artistic and just awesome, so since ive started reading it, i have now completed two canvas paintings that are pretty sweet. One is a collage of "Me" in 2010. and the other is my Peace Tree, based off the drawing Jacque did for me like forever ago!!(:

<-- Painting #1, "Me" collage. sorry its sideways

<--- Painting #2. Peace Tree(:

Oh an, before December was over, i got my nose pierced(: been wantin to do that forever. Its just a tiny lil stud, nothing big!!(:

NEW YEARS!!!(: Party at kates house!! Good times!!! Lit some fireworks, played pool an other variations of the game lol stayed the night since my parents didnt want me drivin home that late. took some crazy pics to start of the year!

2010, like every year had its ups and downs, but

looking back, i wouldnt change a thing! Everything thats happened has gotten me to where i am today, a lil bit older, a lil bit wiser and a lil bit stronger. Now to do it all again! (but better!!)

Great day starting off my new year, came home way early from kates an finally got to sleep a bit in MY OWN BED!!! i love house sitting an all, but some times it gets old lol then hung out an cleaned up the Christmas stuff with my parents, went to work, got schooled by the kiddos on the Kinect thing for XBOX, got off early, now chillin with the family gettin ready to do some yoga!(: all in all a great day(: Hope you all had a wonderful start to your new year as well!!(:

Ollo(:

Once again, nothing really important to talk about today, just random thoughts swirling around this lil noggin of mine!(:

First of all, my mom finally found out about my beta fish lol Her reaction was priceless!! She gave me "the look" and then said two words, "seriously emilie?" hahah then proceeded down the hallway to inform my father on her recent findings. He likes my fish and she does too she just wont admit it lol good times!(:

Next, school is just gettin so crazy!!! Im ready for the semester to be over already. Soon no more math EVER!! :D My intro to social and cultural anthropology class is killing me! not literally, thank God lol but seriously dont like the class. Its hard when you do not agree with pretty much everything your learning, and when you have a sorceress as a teacher. woo....no joke, she told us she is a witch the first day of class but prefers to be called sorceress. Cant wait to be outta that class!! bleh!!!

So in my previous post, i was tellin you guys about my relationship with God at the moment and how ive just been feeling really distant from Him. Well, i am happy to report that were doin better. Its still a work in progress of course, but im doing much better. Thank you for your prayers and advice!! (Juan) Speaking of the big guy upstairs, He has blessed me with some of the best role models i could ever ask for!! (: He is just so smart and totally gets me!! I love when you have those days when youre like, wow God, you like totally did that for me(: or when you finally realize the reasons for things that have been happening. Love those "oooooooooh" moments(: they remind me every time to just let things go and give them to God cause He really does know what Hes doing.

Went and saw the movie Megamind with some pretty awesome people!!!(: GREAT movie!!! you guys have to go see it(:

Yesterday i had to go to this museum for my anthropology class, the heard museum, and it was pretty fun(: very interesting plus i bought a pretty sweet ring that this Indian dude made(: legit!

Then last night went to a pretty sweet concert at the church(: it was a silver city out reach concert. A band called Jezreel performed. I had n

o idea who they were when i got there but they turned out to be awesome! There werent that many people who came to the concert so it was small and intimate. Great time of worship, they played one of my favorite songes ever, Hosanna(: I got to talk to pretty much everyone in the band and then even go to go to dinner with them!(: SO much fun!! Everyone was so nice to me (a total stranger chillin with them at dinner lol) All very easy to talk to and just a great group of people(: Next time there out here you will all have to come!!

Thats pretty much it, told you nothing too trivial to talk about lol(: Have a fantastic day!! much love!!(:

So this post is kind of a random one. I dont really have anything important to talk about so this will be a stream of consciousness writing from ME!(:

so im registered for my classes at cgcc and mcc for this coming semester. I plan to transfer to NMSU in the fall of 2011. Not quite sure what i wan

t to do. First i wanted to be a veterinarian then it was an equestrian veterinarian and then therapeutic horseback riding instructor and then a full time missionary. Now im not sure what God has in store for me. Im definitely going to NMSU, theres no question about that. Ill major in Animal Science and then i have no idea. I was planning on interning with IFM (Institute for missions) over the summer, but that conflicts big time with me transferring so now i gotta wait till not this summer but next. :/ i was so excited toooo! So now im looking into becoming an Animal Cop. Ive always thought about doing that i mean, i LOVE animals, i HATE hearing about animal cruelty and all that, i can definitely be mean and

get rough if need be. Animal Cop sounds perfect dont ya think?

I was thinkin earlier today and im definitely not as close to God right now as i should be. We used to be so tight and now i like, struggle to remember to

talk to Him. :/ Its so hard with how busy life gets. Any suggestions?? I hate this feeling, i just dont feel complete you know? suc

ks.

Had a pumpkin carving party at my house, so fun!!! Totally scared that it was gonna be lame but everyone said they had fun(: I had a bunch of stuff out so we could dress up an take pics(:

I dont like Obama. definitely not a fan, but he is our president so apparently i gotta respect that. psh!! ;p

We were talkin about Michael Vick a few days ago and that hes done his time for what he did blah blah blah. I still cant forgive him. I know im just bein a jerk, but what he did was messed up and im gonna hold that against him forever lol because i can!!! hahaha

i went out and bought a beta fish tonight after class(: Ive been wantin one for like ever!!! My moms been tellin me to stop spendin my money lol she doesnt know i got him....dun dun dun!!!! His name is William Boris von Lichtenstein(: but i just call him Boris. Im puttin his home together tonight when my parents go to bed lol ;p

I guess thats all for today(: Hope you all have a wonderful night!!! Much love(:

Well, hot stuff Mr. Mario Lopez films for the tv show Extra there. welll he was filming of course(; I was standin there takin pictures when one of the crew members asked if i wanted to take a picture with Mario, i was like "um heck yeah!" well just as i was walkin up, some other person from the crew picked this other chick. lame. kinda pissed me off a bit but oh well. then the same crew member lady asked me if i wanted to be in the lil croud that stands behind him so i did that. He was standin like right in front of me. I could have touched him if i wanted to lol he kept talkin to us. waaaay cute!! loved his lil dimples lol hes kinda small in person. He had to stand on a lil stool :p after we hung out there for a bit, we went back to the hotel and started gettin ready for the Dancing with the Stars show!!! :D A long time family friend is the costume designer for DWTS and we got to go to the show!! Our seats were the best ever!!! We sat fight in front of the lil glass room that the stars go to to get their scores after the dance. and then they come and stand like right there!!! right behind us!!!! So yeah, i got to meet KURT WARNER!!!! OMG!!! Everything that i had planned to say didnt come out lol it was so crazy!! hes amazing!! Before that, i went and talked to his wife Brenda. by myself!!! lol I just walked up and said hi and that i was from az and blah blah blah. She was soooooo intimidating!! she kept squeezing my hand. INTENSE!! Oh and Randy, the amazing person that he is, got me Kurts autograph!!!! :D its now hanging up on my wall in my room(: So yeah, i got to talk to Kyle Massey and his partner Lacy, then Jenifer Gray was behind me for a bit, talked to her and said hi(: I freaking talked to "Baby"!!!!! ahhh!!! Heard Brandi singing next to me, tried not to make eye contact with the "Situation" lol cant stand him!!! and by the way, Tony and Max have waaaay better abbbbbs than he does. no joke!!(; after the show Randy took us on a lil tour of the studio. Got to see where they make all the dresses. wayyy cool!!! I knew about some of the costumes before this last mondays show(; sweet!!! On the tour I met Jenifer Gray and Derek again. Derek grabbed my hand while i said hi and had his hand on my back!!! WOW!!! Hes waaaay cute(; Then we go to go out to dinner with Randy afterwards(: so much fun getting to hang out and talk with him!!(: The next day, my mom and I walked to LA INK Tattoo shop(: a.k.a High Voltage(: it was a long walk. But it was sooo cool seeing all the fun shops along the way(: Kat Von D wasnt there but Greg the shop manager and Dennis one of the artists was there(: plus i got to see the back wall mural before they showed it on tv!! awesome!!! Got some cute t0-shirts then took pictures(: Got back to the hotel and then got ready for the show that night!!! This time our seats were on the floor to the right of the band. We were soooo close to the stage!!!! :D I never knew how important the audience was before. we had to clap and smile sooooo much lol it was fun tho(: They had this dud named Cory gettin the audience pumped up and entertained during the breaks. he was cute too!! saw him that night when we were eatin dinner, my mouth kinda took over before i could think and i just blurted out "HI CORY!" as he walked by, he stoped and said hi, yeah he didnt know who i was but he still stopped. so sweet(: lol I definitely didnt want to come home, it was sooo fun there!! such a different life style. Crazy-ness!!! I miss it :/ lol oh well, great experience!!! and i can die happy, meeting Kurt Warner was the main thing to do on my "Bucket List" lol i know im weird!!! next is to own a pet lion and name him Papago(: that ones still in the works!! ;)

Ok so that was pretty much all the fun stuff(: lol now on to thoughts and randomness going on in my mind!! :p

SO at church last Sunday, Scott was talk about being "Supernatural" at first i was like ummm ok...kinda weird cause i started thinking of the show that used to be on the WB, Supernatural about the ghosts and demons lol but he was talking about the Holy Spirit(: one thing he said really made me stop and think, he said when he "goes" he doesnt want to be rememberd as the guy who went to church, did good things and all that, he wants to be rememberd as having a supernatural life here. so true!! I want someone to be able to see the change in my life as i grow with God. If theres no change then how could i really be living my life for the Lord?? God gave us the Holy Spirit to live in us and help us just like the Holy Spirit helped the deciples. I want to have a "supernatural" life, not some boring "good" life. When im dead you guys better be able to see the change in how my life went from growin with my Dad(: Another thing that was said by Robert i think was that the Holy Spirit is not a force to axcess but a person to follow. LOVE THAT!!!! :D

oh got this waaaay cute necklace for the fight against breast caner. Its this lil flat silver circle with "Save the tatas" stamped on it and then there are two lil pearls on it to look like boobies lol you guys just gotta see it, cute cute!!! If you guys want one, ill hook you up!!(:

oh so sad day on wednesday. saw a dog get hit by a car :/ the person didnt stop so me and this other dude did. I started crying, he thought it was my dog lol embarassing. he moved the dog to the side of the road and then made me sit and calm down before i headed back home. So sad :/ staretd balling when i got back home and my mom was freakin out lol plus MCC gave me the wrong paperwork so i gotta go back now. lame lol since i was having a sucky day i decided to color my hair that night. i needed a change. i am now a red head(: its like a black cherry red. kinda like Sharon Osbournes hair(: i love it!!! mom doesnt really like it. lol oh well!! hairs just an accessory to me!!(:

ok, thats enough for now(:

later!!!
