I'm sitting in my Geography 304 class right now....and obviously paying meticulous attention. I find that this is one of the classes in which if I pay attention, I fall asleep. So as to stay awake, I listen passively, taking occasional notes, and do other things. Today? Posting.
Nothing really new to report... I can't really think of anything to say. I'm so TIRED. This week has been busy! Last night I went to Nate Baldwin's show, and while his music is enjoyable, I don't really enjoy live rock and roll. I'm such a grandma - I kept thinking "why don't they turn that down! It's too loud!" It was like a newbury park reunion - Grace, Kathryn, Lauren, Andy, Sam, Sarah, Jessica, and many more were there. All in all a fun night, but my ears were ringing and I was SO tired afterward. Maybe to some that feeling is joyful, but I didn't like it.
In other news, I sent my first elder to the field this monday. I'm excited for him - hopefully he is doing well. My other three are in there until about the second week in february... which means I've still got time! I love my job. I can't wait to get to work; its so much more relaxing.
I watched The Last Unicorn on wednesday, which was not only a great blast from the past, but was the creepies experience of my life. Just check out this clip of a creepy pirate cat purring. Yeah. Or just check out the theme song. And then tell me that this movie is not majestic.
I haven't asked that guy out yet... but I'm working on it. I'm looking at it this way; it's like eating an elephant. you have to do it one bite at a time!
Any suggestions would be welcome.

Back in Black... and by black, I mean Provo.
Aight. So it's been a while. Whatever. Life gets busy.
News #1: I LOVE MY JOB!! Teaching at the MTC is so much better than BEING in the MTC. I have a district of 4 Elders right now, Elders Estrella, Anand, Alatorre, and Avila. They are great! (Insert Tony the Tiger here.) I basically just get to teach them english and teach them how to be missionaries. And it is AWESOME!!!
News #2: I have a new calling! I'm the ward choir director, and I've already got a few things in the works. I'm actually really excited for this!
News #3: I am going to ask a boy out on a date. I'm sick of playing it safe. So I'm going to ask. Yup. that's me. So any suggestions on what to do on a date would be greatly appreciated.... I think I'm just going to call him up and be like "hey. I'm calling to ask you on a date. BOO YA!!!" Sound good? I think so.
News #4: My roomate Jenny got a Wii. Which means that I have wasted most of my weekend beating things on Mariocart and dancing around to Just Dance. It's great - its a game where you hold the remote and dance around like the person on the screen. My favorite thing ever? Watching our two male next door neighbors dance around to Britney Spear's "Womanizer". Yeah. Awesome.
News #5: Can we just go back to the whole "asking a boy out" thing? I've never done this before.... seriously. Any advice would be very welcomed.
News #7: In a year I will be in my LAST SEMESTER EVER of BYU. WAAA HOOO!!!!! I could not be more excited about this,.
So over the break I got to go back to Chicago and see three of the families I knew well get sealed in the Temple. It was SO MUCH FUN! We stayed with members, and played with their kids, and wore Jeans, and it was the best vacation ever. It was frigid, but it was worth it. Chicago really is a great city. At one point an old asian man started hitting on me. He was probably five feet tall, and old enough to have experienced the dark ages. He told me "most women associate height with masculinity. I am short, but have a very strong masculinity". He asked me for my number, and when I said no, he asked me for my email. I don't even know what made him thing that was a good idea in the first place. Best part? Cami was RIGHT BEHIND ME the whole time, just gabbing away on her phone as if there wasn't a totally traumatizing experience happening right in front of her.
So now I'm back in Provo, and it hasn't been very cold. Knock on wood. All of you. Knock on something wooden. I love my classes, minus my Islam in Contemporary Society class. It's filled with a bunch of die hard "America Sucks, go Palestine" people that have world peace on the brain. Like a bunch of not attractive pageant contestants who actually think they're smart.
That is all, folks!!!
P.S. Avatar is awesome. I want to see it again. And again!
