First Full Week In February

~ Highlight of the Day: Listening to the council and direction of Elder Bednar*~

 

That this has become a post-only-once-a-week blog is, for me, a serious cause for lamentation. I want so bad to post more. Just short ones. 'Cause short and sweet is so much better than an occasional, long winded catch-up post.

 

But I just can't do it!

There is not enough time in the day.

 

Perhaps during the summer I can devote more time to this sort of thing. Besides, summer is going to be way more exciting. Have I mentioned my class schedule for spring term? It's the best :P

 

Stained Glass
Field Botany
and

Scuba Diving
(Beginning. . . because they never offer Intermediate)

 

 

Oh yeah. It's going to be awesome. And I wish I could say I'm taking a ton of fun classes Summer semester too, but I'm not. I'm not sure I'll take any, actually. We'll see.

Well, I was especially productive this week. I spent some birthday money on a coat from Plato's Closet. . . (Why I have never been to this place before now is a mystery to me - it's awesome)

(me in my new coat. . . with Denna :)

Then I learned how to cook these thingies.
I'm not sure if I like them better raw or cooked.
I'll have to get back to you on that one.

 

And I got a sweet pair of 2D glasses. Probably the best birthday gift ever.
Now if I ever have to sit through a 3D movie, I can still watch it in 2D :) 

And I will be composing a post devoted completely to kumquats in the near future. I would have done it tonight but I ran out of time. It will be a good one, just you wait and see :)


* We had the great fortune of having Elder Bednar attend our Stake Conference this weekend. I got to listen to him both on Saturday and on Sunday, and both times I was just blown away by the  power of his testimony, and the clear reasonings he gives for doctrinal principles. I will have to expound upon all the many things I learned from him later, when it's not so late at night. . .
