This Is Me

Hi, i am alyssa. I am not really named after any one or anything, i guess that my parents just enjoyed the name. i am currently enroled in highschool. Oh it is just so lovely, not really. my grades are suffering. i was doing two swim teams, now im only doing one. thank the heavens for that! i cant do two! ill pick the club team up again when highschool ends. i cant wait for that day. i grew up as any other child might in Utah, going to church every week, attending all of the church activities. i love the church with all of my heart. in 4 short years i will be heading off to a new place while serving the lord. i cant wait! my Brother derek is out there right now. in the phillipeans, hes very home sick, and we are derek sick. we miss him so much. as of yesterday he has been gone for 4 months! it feels like its been so much longer than that.
