<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<ol>
<li>Make your bed (<a href="http://seethisgirlrun.com/" target="_blank">seethisgirlrun</a>, swears by it</li>
<li>Exercise</li>
<li>Shower (seriously this will make your day better!)</li>
<li>Look in the mirror and tell yourself that you are worth it and pretty good looking!</li>
<li>Say Hello to an old friend</li>
<li>Write your feelings down (journal, blog, etc.) </li>
<li>Give a compliment</li>
<li>Greet those you pass on your walk to class or work</li>
<li>Look for the beauty around you (Rain or Shine there is something beautiful)</li>
<li>Count your blessings</li>
<li>Say a Prayer (Remember Whose you are!) </li>
<li>Eat a healthy meal</li>
<li>Unplug and take a power nap (even twenty minutes makes such a difference)</li>
<li>Avoid junk food and soda (honestly choosing fruit over a candy bar will make you feel much better)</li>
<li>Take time for a hobby (knitting, reading, biking, painting, singing, you get the point...)</li>
<li>Spend time with loved ones and just be with them! </li>
<li>Look for a way to secretly serve those around you (clean the bathroom, leave a sweet note, wipe the snow of someones car..) </li>
<li>Make someone laugh. I love just saying something silly to lighten the mood</li>
<li>Clean up after yourself (I always feel better the next day knowing I'm not waking up to the mess from dinner last night)</li>
<li>Give to yourself (maybe twenty minutes of uninterrupted pinteresting?, a froyo, mani/pedi. Seriously everyone deserves something!)</li>

What makes your day Happier?! </div>

I still can't believe it... This year has possibly been the most life changing year of my life and for a thousand different reasons, some BIG and some small but for the most part I've felt the need to be patient and wait! I've been trying so hard to move forward with my life, move toward some worthy goal and I kept feeling that I need to just wait. So I did, I took a job in Logan for the summer instead of one out of town and after three months I decided to quit and take some time for myself. The week I thought I was taking turned into a month, which for me was incredibly liberating. I haven't taken a month off of work since I was sixteen, except for the eighteen months that I chose to do a different type of work (It was a lot more enjoyable)! And now after eight months of waiting ha and learning patience it is finally time to start moving.<br />
<br />
I won't lie it is with some reluctance. I finally accepted that maybe all these silly plans I had for myself weren't really what I was suppose to be doing and that I needed to accept my unchanging life. But ya know what? It feels right. It feels like it is time I make some changes for myself. I hope that I'm being put in a place that I can learn better how to help others and give of myself. Can I just say? That is when I'm most happy, when I'm doing something for others, oh and when I'm shopping.. Ha! But I love serving others in any capacity. So on ward and upward.<br />
<br />
I guess you will all want to know how exactly I am moving in my life.... Well I was just offered a job in Salt Lake working as a Child Development Specialist. It is probably the coolest job in the world. I basically go into a lot of different homes to work with families that have a child 0-3 with some type of developmental delay. I don't know if I could pick a better job for me, I get to work with families and babies!! I can't even wait to start! (clearly I learned how to wait...) I know there will be a lot of learning going on, especially because I feel so young ha and have never had a family of my own. But I'm so EXCITED!! And to actually have a job in my degree (Yeah family studies and human development doesn't usually turn out that well). <br />
<br />
I will hopefully be keeping up my blog more! It is definitely a goal of mine :) I have some pretty funny things that I've decided that need to be shared with the world.<br />
<br />
Here are some pictures from my most lovely summer:<br />

Yep I'm writing about dating... I probably could have a whole blog about the awkward, hilarious moments in the life of a girl that is trying to find love. But I guess I want to keep some of my life personal... A few weeks ago I was participating in a dating class as a kind of demonstration for one of the classes for my degree. I've never once thought about taking a dating class. Not that I wouldn't take one, it is just that it has never occurred to me that there is such a class. Most people I know just date and get married with no education needed. I guess for those of us, who dating doesn't come so easy to, they have dating classes. HA! This one is taught in the community for anyone to take, but particularly for those in the dating years. I am only taking a portion of the class but I would recommend it if you are wanting some advice on how not to date a jerk, that is actually the title of the class "How to avoid Dating a Jerk or Jerk-ette." There is more info about the class <a href="http://strongermarriage.org/htm/dating/how-to-avoid-falling-for-ajerk-or-jerk-ette/" target="_blank">here</a>. ANYWHO!! I wanted to share some of my new found knowledge to all of yall that are looking for a little help in this stage of your life.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The best dating advice that I heard was to first figure out who <i>you</i> are! The best time to seek out a committed relationship is when you feel that you don't need one, when you aren't seeking someone to fill any unmet needs. The truth is we aren't meant to be alone and we all have that innate need to be loved. We all come with pasts and weaknesses. But it is harder to foster a healthy relationship when needs that should be met aren't and then we seek them from someone else. We need to first love ourselves before we can love another, especially that deep love that all of us look for. If we can cope with life challenges on our own how great will it be when we can share them with someone else. My challenge then to you, is to find ways to love yourself today. Whether that be cooking yourself a lovely dinner, renting a movie you've been dying to see, a little retail therapy, reading a book, taking a walk in the park<br />
<br />
, or just taking ten minutes to stop and think about the great things you've done today!</div>

What is some good dating advice that you've received?!</div>

I wouldn't change those eighteen months of my life for anything and because I absolutely loved my mission and will take up any chance I can get to gush about my mission I'll take it. This post is dedicated to the things I wish I knew before I left. <br />
<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Read and KNOW Preach My Gospel!! Every mission is a Preach my Gospel mission and you will be such a wonderful missionary if you are already, at least familiar with the book! If you are worried about not knowing your scriptures or the lessons I would suggest looking up the scriptures in the boxes under each section of a lesson. Those made all the difference for me, I tabbed my scriptures and by the end I was so grateful that when I needed a scripture on the three kingdoms of glory I could know exactly where it was. </li>
<li>The month or so leading up to when you leave I would suggest starting to live the mission life... integrate more spiritual music into your ipod, try and get to bed earlier and wake up earlier. Especially for those of you coming from apartments with cute roommates that gab (ha this is totally me) ten thirty seems incredibly early. Make time in this last month before you leave to visit friends and family.</li>
<li>Depending where you serve I would say some clothing <i>must haves</i> are cardigans and scarfs. You can dress up any skirt with a cute cardi and a floral scarf! And currently sisters and can wear pretty much anything. It kind of ages me but when I got my call we still had to wear skirts that were plain colors mid calf or longer... do you know how hard those are to find?! But thankfully all you beautiful sisters can wear patterns galore and the cutest skirts. </li>
<li>If you serve where it is cold I would invest in warm cute coats. I served in Western New York and for a big chunk of my mission all I did was wear a coat. It was too cold to really worry about what was worn underneath. So I was grateful to have a cute coat! </li>
<li>SHOES: hmmm... I wish someone told me that it was okay to bring a lot of cute flats... Some of the shoes I ended up wearing the most were flats from H&M (cheap and cute) and some a sister gave me from Target. We definitely did our tracking but for the most part we didn't need heavy clunky scary looking shoes.</li>

</tbody></table>
<ul>
<li>CONFESSION!! I had some pretty stylish companions especially my baby!! She is from San Diego and seriously a babe! I trained her my last two transfers (well she came trained...) and I was so frumpy by the end that she was definitely a princess to my plain jane style. She knew how to be modest and cute with bright blue skirts, cute belts, my favorite flats from FOREVER21, and cute cute scarfs. Anyways I learned a lot about style from her. Love that sister!! </li>

Oh goodness. I've been gone for a bit... A good eight months... Well I'm back! I'm trying to be better at this whole blogging thing not because I'm good at it but because I feel that it is some sort of journal and a healthy way to put my feelings out there. Also one of my bestest friends, <a href="http://seethisgirlrun.com/">Alyssa</a>, started a new blog and I realized that I haven't posted for ages.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Well all I can say is that life in all its ups and downs is beautiful. I can't believe how incredible it all is. I was just driving to school this morning and started giggling, I couldn't help but smile at the beautiful world we live in. The last few months have been trying ones for sure but ya know what? Everything ALWAYS works out. Thankfully we don't even have to go through it alone, I'm so grateful for friends and family that have helped me go through some odd transitions in my life that were very unexpected. I am most grateful though, for my Father in Heaven. He has blessed me with extra goodness lately! I was thinking how great the works of our God are! How magnificent is He who created us?! This is why I have been able to feel so happy the past few months even with a broken heart and uncertainty about my life in the next few months. </div>

So guess what?! I'm 24 yep the big two four! Weird. I secretly love it and any chance I get I find myself saying, 'yeah well I'm 24...' What a great age to graduate from college and to start on my many adventures. Having said that though, my life is full of adventures, NOW!! Such a fun life. My advice of the day is to look for opportunities to just exclaim how much you love life. Try it right now. No matter where you are, whisper it, shout it, sing it; I LOVE LIFE!! I promise you will feel better. Well anyways I'm back and am committing to be a more faithful writer. </div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Okay yes this post will include a lot of pictures, it is just that I've been seriously running around and playing this summer so much that I haven't blogged. And... today a friend pointed out that I hadn't blogged in a while so here is my life in pictures from June on.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-small;">First was the big trip to PUERTO RICO!!! OH man it seriously was paradise. I met some pretty incredible people and saw so many wonderful places. The food was to die for and every where we went was gorgeous. My beautiful puerto rica sister, Laura, showed me around with her lovely fiance. Oh they were just the best hosts. To finish off my trip was their wedding. Does't she look beautiful?! </span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpjy41Pc-p821dNXwhnTdPeVOX50-nISt_SDErgpVK4TvCcm7N4AC3g6qYn08sQ8SoU-DBLpCy6NAGOfGwIXxat7e21Aj0tGS9BZz98flyAOgD1a-_5cxk1Rn3ZLmkH9LBH5LGgHgiVXM/s1600/IMG_20120603_215941.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpjy41Pc-p821dNXwhnTdPeVOX50-nISt_SDErgpVK4TvCcm7N4AC3g6qYn08sQ8SoU-DBLpCy6NAGOfGwIXxat7e21Aj0tGS9BZz98flyAOgD1a-_5cxk1Rn3ZLmkH9LBH5LGgHgiVXM/s320/IMG_20120603_215941.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>

I went with all these lovely ladies and we had a wonderful night with a little P.F. Changs and dressing up. Thankfully one more month of summer, hopefully I can squeeze all the splendidness of summer out of it as I can.</span></div>

With such warm weather I have been itching to get a bike. I have been drooling over this <a href="http://publicbikes.com/p/PUBLIC-C7-2012"><span style="color: #e69138;">one</span></a>:</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
But I am not too rich right now, So I might end up renting a bike. Which will be great nonetheless :) At the University you can rent bikes for free for the whole summer. So I think I might do that. I hope I can find one with a basket!!! I am daydreaming of riding that cute little thing to the grocery store and it would be so much better with a basket!! </div>

Okay so I have totally been MIA for the last couple of months and so much has happened, hence while I've been an awful blogger. But summer is here and so I'm hoping to write a ton more. I have been feeling overly inspired by this blog a friend showed me, its called, <a href="http://ablogaboutlove.com/"><span style="color: #e69138;">a blog about love</span></a>. Check it out. Seriously inspiring. Anyways it has helped me and reaffirmed how great life is and that being happy where your at is totally possible. Being twenty three is an age where you have so much hope for the future that sometimes I feel myself getting caught up in just that, the future. When really I should just enjoy now and all the great things that come with it.<br />
I guess you could say I'm refocusing my life on Happiness in the NOW!!! It is really fun. I'm trying this new thing were I am just stopping through out my day to just be happy. Today's moment was in the sunshine under a big tree, just sitting. I'm reading this really great books for one of my classes, the automatic millionaire (UBER GREAT). <a href="http://www.finishrich.com/"><span style="color: #e69138;">Here</span></a> is the authors website if you want to check it out. Anyways I just stopped reading, put my book down and couldn't help but think how great my life is. A great job, wonderful family, an overabundance of incredible people in my life, opportunities to be bold, so many things to learn, deliciously warm weather, and an incredibly loving Father in Heaven. What more could a girl want?!! Maybe time and money... but I'm extremely happy with out those two things!!<br />
Well just a little month at a glance, I'm taking two summer classes, moving into a new apartment (So excited to decorate), working, running, reading, oh and going to Puerto Rico!!! It is busy but oh so fun. Well I hope to write more soon.Deborah Teuscherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00970109536998325038noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4908278215732449530.post-69792200078423611152012-02-22T19:32:00.000-08:002012-02-22T19:32:08.651-08:00The Bachelorette?<div style="text-align: center;">So I am completely obsessed with the the Bachelor. Not because I feel uplifted or enriched after watching it, but I'm a girl and seriously who doesn't love a little romance on the side of overly dramatic girls?! SO every monday night I hush everyone in my house and turn to my two hours of bachelorness!! Since I love the bachelor my brothers have defined me as the bachelorette. </div><div style="text-align: center;">We get our sunday calls from the married siblings every sunday and there first question to me always is, 'how was this week on the bachelorette?' They then are stuck listening to my recap on the weeks dating stories always ending with a rose ceremony of who stayed and who left. I guess thats what I get for having five brothers. They have to turn my life into a reality television show to hear about all the drama. I was thinking about this the other day just laughing but realizing how true it might be. Sometimes people come back into my life, even though I didn't give them a rose in an earlier "episode". Or times when I gave a rose and everyone knew it was wrong and was practically screaming at me not to do it, but I still did, and it was no bueno. Wow who would have thought I live such an exciting life. Thank heavens for brothers who make life as exciting as possible. </div>Deborah Teuscherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00970109536998325038noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4908278215732449530.post-53044343232064917662012-01-27T08:59:00.001-08:002012-02-22T19:22:34.288-08:00new.year.2012.<div style="text-align: center;">Alright I need to repent. I haven't posted for over a month and seriously so many things have happened. I guess you could say I've been busy. I love to post though because I feel like I have an outlet here. Well Christmas was wonderful. I still was going through this period of transitioning after the mission but once I hit three months I am starting to feel atleast adjusted. I was talking to a friend the other day who had been home from his mission for nine years and said he's still weird. Which made me feel great because I don't know if I'll ever be normal again, But I'm totally okay with that. So here are some highlights of the last month and a half:</div><ul><li>Saw lots of my bestest friends (Yay lunch with my possy)</li>
<li>Parties (New Years and the Alyborah bash)</li>
<li>FAMILY (lots and lots of them)</li>
<li>Finally started school (seriously its great to have something to actually right in my planner... ) </li>
<li>I BOUGHT a CAR!!! (yeah I'm excited about this one, big deal)</li>
<li>Oh I'm 23 now. woo hooo.... Yeah there seems to be a lot that comes with that one. But I like this age. Older and more fun.</li>
</ul><div style="text-align: center;">Well thats just a few of the many great things this past little while. Cheers to a new year. I feel like this is going to be a great year. </div>Deborah Teuscherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00970109536998325038noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4908278215732449530.post-10098889487293885532011-12-09T15:03:00.000-08:002011-12-09T15:03:27.150-08:00a little crafty?<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So the Christmas season always makes me feel a little crafty.

Especially with a lot of fun shopping. I love going to cute craft fairs and boutiques during the Christmas Season. I love even more some good sweets. My sister-in-law made this delicious cake for my brothers birthday over Thanksgiving break. Oh and the tradition that I missed last year... CHRISTMAS TREE HUNTING!! So we venture up north to go hunt down our very own Christmas tree. It was very fun this year. I love the tree we found. Actually a very whimsy tree. Super skinny and tall. I'll have to show you all some pretty pics of the tinseled tree. Well Cheers to the holiday season. </span></div>Deborah Teuscherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00970109536998325038noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4908278215732449530.post-61446399704943591502011-11-30T16:09:00.000-08:002011-12-08T14:55:27.839-08:00Jump from a plane?<div style="border-color: -moz-use-text-color; border-style: none; border-width: medium; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">Today I went to lunch with a friend and he asked me a very good question... He said 'would you jump from a plane just because you were afraid that it could blow up?!' Seriously that has made me think a lot today. I definitely would classify myself as a girl who worries too much, is scared to take chances, and might possibly be irrational from time to time. And I have left many good things because I was afraid of what could possibly happen, that usually doesn't!!! So today I am taking the trip. The whole way. Embracing the possibilities of failure, of it blowing up in my face. And I'm going to enjoy it. Worry free and everything! I mean life is about adventures right? Lets see how it goes. </div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfnCa7FNsFBL3gAsADSVCD2U6UDk5tuDP-kNvM35XbHM3dvWgU6zj4WMxCK5fOlkytkf9B3i_r4uRKxt199x0G-yZ4AbIEx9F_m0ST4oWNsav0toWHjByLSG0iDHx13rqQlXGrOph2pUg/s1600/downsized_1118111325.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" dda="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfnCa7FNsFBL3gAsADSVCD2U6UDk5tuDP-kNvM35XbHM3dvWgU6zj4WMxCK5fOlkytkf9B3i_r4uRKxt199x0G-yZ4AbIEx9F_m0ST4oWNsav0toWHjByLSG0iDHx13rqQlXGrOph2pUg/s1600/downsized_1118111325.jpg" /></a></div>Deborah Teuscherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00970109536998325038noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4908278215732449530.post-77802173279519877872011-11-15T13:00:00.000-08:002011-12-08T14:55:49.444-08:00comfort food<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijkiZAVTAPcM2x8Yi6SdrL9FBVIPtpBbrbuL70m2ESnfl5az4dfroWoHzTHA1nTYfeMpgAQeUnl5e5R72SKNI2EhYqIeW2iBCIRyyU-QrvMGBFuHpG72YXkWCBbgTqDGbSUgdISVdBvNw/s1600/mac.cheese..jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" nda="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijkiZAVTAPcM2x8Yi6SdrL9FBVIPtpBbrbuL70m2ESnfl5az4dfroWoHzTHA1nTYfeMpgAQeUnl5e5R72SKNI2EhYqIeW2iBCIRyyU-QrvMGBFuHpG72YXkWCBbgTqDGbSUgdISVdBvNw/s1600/mac.cheese..jpg" /></a></div><div align="center"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I was dying for some comfort food today.

Last night was one of them. A friend called me up, asked how my week was, and some what honestly admitted that I had had a boring week. So he made some calls and then I was onto a whimsy night. We had a quick bite of pizza, while chatting about our favorite composers. Then hurried to this Chinese acrobatic show. Which was incredible by the way. I was completely awe struck especially when a young Asian boy balanced himself by one hand on top of seven chairs. Then, almost home, we decided to grab some ice cream. We discussed our colored personalities and he suggested that we take a ride on a tandem bike. I didn't know that he had access to one and I told him no it was definitely too cold... Wow where was my spontaneity?! I guess he convinced me because next thing I knew we were in his bike shop. Which at that moment I just had to stop and laugh. I was standing in this some what warehouse, full of old bikes, smelling like grease and having tunes of Regina Spektor and Fun running through my mind. How could life get any better. Thankfully they had a monstrous coat for me to wear on this late November, night, tandem bike ride through campus. But I can't even tell you how I felt. I love nights like that... That keep you up replaying everything. Cheers to whimsy nights.</div>Deborah Teuscherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00970109536998325038noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4908278215732449530.post-63640579267488351032011-10-29T12:43:00.000-07:002011-12-08T14:56:37.773-08:00quote of the day:<div style="text-align: center;"><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">“Imagine yourself as a living house. God comes in to rebuild that house. At first, perhaps, you can understand what He is doing. He is getting the drains right and stopping the leaks in the roof and so on; you knew that those jobs needed doing and so you are not surprised. But presently He starts knocking the house about in a way that hurts abominably and does not seem to make any sense. What on earth is He up to? The explanation is that He is building quite a different house from the one you thought of - throwing out a new wing here, putting on an extra floor there, running up towers, making courtyards. You thought you were being made into a decent little cottage: but He is building a palace. He intends to come and live in it Himself.” </div><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">― </span><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/1069006.C_S_Lewis" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">C.S.
