On the subject of accents, I must press the opinion that they are indeed amazing, which is why I am disappointed that my Southern-ness in not more apparent. In fact, today I caught myself pronouncing "home" in typical Utah fashion as "holme." What the heck is that? There is no "l" in "home!" I'm from Louisiana for crying out loud! I should be chalked full of ya'lls & jewantoos, but alas, my "Yankee" Daddy caused a clash of accents which resulted in a rarely distinguishable Southern twang. So, sorry to disappoint all you Utah folk, but I ain't about to go Scarlet O'Hara on you, which is fortunate for y'all cause she was one obnoxious self-absorbed belle!
On the subject of health, I my opinion can be summed into this phrase: Boo on illness. That is all.
On the subject of school, I have to say A+. Not that that's my grade in ANY of my classes right now, but hey, Heavenly Father's really been looking out for me, so I can't complain.
On the subject of religion, I must establish that I love the Gospel & all that it encompasses, but agency is not my favorite gospel principle right now. Note to self: must acquire patience & a more understanding heart cause I feel like a hater & I'm pretty sure nobody died & made me judge.

Accents are so funny! My dad's family has Ozark accents, and my mom's parents are from NYC and Hawaii. I was raised in Missouri and Utah. I usually end up talking like whoever I am with! When I am on the phone with my Missouri grandparents my husband swears I am turning hillbilly, and even when I am around someone with an unfamiliar accent, say a British one, I begin to talk like them.
