a random thursday

When I have only one class on Thursdays and it starts at 12, then you finish everything early and are super bored? That was ALL day today. But the bonus is that I got most everything done and don't need to worry about it, YAY! (said like Flynn Rider in Tangled)

So You Think You Can Dance is absolutely fantastic! Roommates and I went back and watched all of our favorite ones, and oh dang, I'm gonna learn to hip hop dance. I will be the awesome (yes awesome not awkward) chick at dances who breaks it out and you'll all cheer for me just wait! It'll be fun to get back into Dance classes cause they make life so much fun :)

I got a letter! 3 pages! Very impressive: both in him and in me for being able to read all of it. He's doing so great and man am I proud to call him my best friend :)

Going to continue reading more talks about the Atonement before bed. I love my Savior and I can't even express how much His love means to me. God has blessed me so greatly for having a knowledge of His Son and the fullness of the gospel. It is everything to me and I'm just working on being better, one day at a time.

Remember the Lord

funny thing

The last few days have been too crazy to remember to blog. But now I'll play catch up again.

Thursday:
I had gotten all of my reading done early for my one class of that day and enjoyed the extra time to just breathe and do homework as I pleased. I went to my Humanities of Islam class and the Imam (religious leader) of one of the Mosques in Salt Lake came and we got to ask him questions. It was a really great experience to hear him speak because a religion and a way of life is completely different in when you study it on paper and actually see it in a person. I certainly hope that, its as plain to others what I stand for as it was plain to see in him. I did more homework, mostly an Oral Project for ELang, after then work then home. And I got a letter :) My first one  which made me almost bounce off the walls with giddiness but you know thats just me :) It was great to hear from him and know how well he's doing, it just made me smile the whole time reading and re-reading it. Then Downton Abbey took over my life and I went to bed far far too late.

Friday:
I hadn't gotten nearly enough reading done the night before so I got up somewhat early and got lots of it done. ELang was great, I know not many would find any sort of joy in a American Usage class but I really find it great. Good thing too, its essential for my minor. I got out of that and did some great reading on the meaning of an author as its related to literary criticism (Foucault's, What is an Author?) and went and discussed it in my Literary Criticism class. Did no homework after that class but watched Downton Abbey some more and attempted to do a Sodoku puzzle. I went to work and found out that hiding just doesn't work sometimes funnily enough. I got home, watch more Downton Abbey, went out to see Beauty and the Beast, which was fabulous as always by the way, and came home. After being apart for a while, I pulled all the different parts of myself together and went to bed.

Saturday:
I slept in. And it was blissful thanks for asking. Got all showered and ready for the day and looked out to see the weather behaving in a very bipolar manner (rain to hail to snow to rain again, etc. etc.). I distracted myself with the computer and writing my own letter for a bit then went up to work. I was very precise in working in the very back. I was graciously given a ride home, on a scooter (it had stopped raining thank goodness). I helped Dana make our delicious cheesecake that will hopefully be a delightful dessert tomorrow and then made a nice and large batch of chicken puffs. Should last me at least a couple days :) We (Dana, Giselle, Jasmin, Jordan, Cole and Charlotte) then all went to Velour and watched David's (Co-chair's) band (Blind Actuaries) play. It was soo good! Favorite local bacd by far and i will steal the music from Dana as soon as physically possible. We all came home and enjoyed Jordan playing tunes on the keyboard at our apartment and just visited.

I am now typing my blog. And we are now here. Can I just say, Life is a funny thing, and this is my conclusion.

And to all a good night
