Here is the thing

If the past few days is evidence of what the next few months have in store for me, its going to be a long few months.
I have been waking up at about 4:45 frantic to get stuff ready for my mission. . . I start shopping online and realize that I have no Idea what I am doing. My first instinct is just to buy everything have it shipped then I can return what doesn't work. Thankfully by the time I have to put my credit card number in I am awake enough to realize how ridiculous I am being.
But Seriously, I need to sleep a little bit more than what I am, I usually dont fall asleep till 1 or 2. Waking up at 4:30 and shopping, facebooking, reading, blogging, and staring until at least 6:30 then sleeping till 8:00 is not going to sustain me for my night shifts this week.

A tired Kenzie is always entertaining I am told. A little Cranky, but entertaining. So here is my question, to anybody who has served a mission! Will you please give me some advice! Written down, about anything! I could seriously take anything at this point! Maybe it will help calm my nerves so I can sleep. . .

Okay I am going to try to sleep again

  1. 1- be grateful that the missionary dress has changed and you dont have to wear nylons or struggle to find mid-calf length skirts
    2- dont be afraid of color. Buy something cute and feminine (if you want) and remember that sisters need to look just as professional as Elders. (we had some sisters in our mission who would wear frumpy clothes and called it good cause it happened to be a skirt)
    3- start reading PMG to prepare. the better you know it the more ready you will be. I am still amazed that some missions have you leave in 3 weeks! so read up before the MTC time FLIES
    4- go to the temple.
    5- talk to strangers ( if this is a problem for you) it will prepare you for the inevitable :)

    pray always! You'll do great kenzie!
