After such a good day, I can't not write about it!

Really, my good day started Tuesday night. I was sick all weekend and by Tuesday I basically couldn't do anything but want to sleep. So I called my home teacher to come give me a blessing. Not only has it helped me get MUCH better, but it answered a bunch of things that have been stressing me out since the beginning of the semester (like its fine that I switched majors). But then Wednesday happened and my really good day was put on hold while I went to school and work for 16 hours (not that it was a bad day, just that it wasn't a good day, it was just a day).

So back to Thursday! I meant to wake up by 8 so I could get to the temple by 9:30 to do baptisms, but that didn't happen. However, I was determined to go and not allow my laziness to overcome my desire to do something good spiritually for myself. I ended up getting to the temple by 11:30, was out by 1:30 and, of course, just barely missed the bus to campus. I got to enjoy the brisk walk to campus and once I got there I picked up my W-2 form, some Subway and then caught the 2:15 back to Wyview with Emily M. Once I got home and ate, I thought I should probably get some homework done, but the third problem in I decided that it was too hard to do alone, called this boy Randy to see if he wanted to work on it with me, and decided my time would be best spent by baking until I could properly focus. A little after 5 Randy came over and we tackled that Econ homework in two and a half hours (considering the last homework took at least 3.5, that's quite a feat!). After he left, I decided I had too many cookies and had to get rid of some. Then I remembered I had yet to do my Visiting Teaching, and since I have no time in the next couple of days to try to coordinate schedules with three other people, I decided to settle on writing both of my Visiting Teachees cute notes and a bag of cookies each. Once I had chatted with one and clipped the other's goodies to their clipboard I still wanted to give some to Warren and Brandon who had given me the blessing on Tuesday. This led to me talking to boys for two hours! That never happens, especially on a Tuesday/Thursday when I stay at home and am lucky if I talk to people other than my roommaters. So that means I talked to a total of 8 guys, because Josh came over for a little today too. Bahaha, it's sad that I think that is a large number, but even though I'm surrounded by guys in my econ classes, I'm lucky if I have a full on conversation with more than one. I'm working on it! And not sad...something not that negative.
