A Wonderful Thing

Have you ever been sitting in a science class, viewing spectacular pictures of the galaxy and hearing the teacher blab on about how this was all just created in the blink of an eye by some cosmic boom or something crazy like that? I have and I hate it.

The one thing I've discovered about BYU-Idaho that is so unique is the combination of secular and spiritual knowledge. In my Science, English and American Heritage classes, part of the cariculum is the scriptures and general conerence talks. How cool is that! It's not everyday you can sit in your science class and explain the formation of the universe based on scripture found in the Doctrine and Covenants, Pearl of Great Price and other modern day revelation from the prophets. So cool.

Tomorrow is DEVO (devotional, i'll try to help catch you up on the lingo), and Elder Christofferson of the twelve is coming. It's a ticketed event, and I got myself one! I'm really excited, it's like our own personal General Conference.

Well, an update on last night....an hour after they "stopped by to say hi" (as Sonnie would say 'boys drool') one of them called me to apologize, he said he felt really bad, and was sorry, there was just a really bad miscommunication and he would like to try to get together again. So that made me feel better. I invited that guys roommate, not the one that came with him last night, to go to a work out class with my tongiht. Directly after I hit send for that text message, I began hitting END over and over and over and over hoping that it would delete the sending of the message. NO hope. I kind of regret sending it, because I don't know if I reallywant to go to a workout class with a guy. It didn't hit me 'till after how awkward that could be....oh well. He told me the other night he wanted to start working out again now that Christmas is over, so I'm hoping he will accept the invitation. Ok, I have to go to class. Peace out!
