Chapter 21: Time to Catch Up

Where did the semester go? Well I was doing well writing monthly but I have been pretty lazy over the last three months. This semester is almost over and it has been a pretty interesting one. I am doing pretty well in school. I might get straight A's again but we'll have to see. I have really enjoyed teaching my math discussion and I'll be doing it again next fall. I sort of started dating Nicole Walker who is leaving in three weeks so I guess we'll see what happens while she's gone. Also just this week I started talking to Kelly Lorimer again out of the blue. It was quite the curveball for me but I am glad to have a good friend again. I still am playing volleyball every week and it's a lot of fun. The last three weeks I have had games almost every night of the week. This last weekend I had two dates with two really awesome girls. I hung out with Heather Muller on Thursday night and she was a lot of fun. Then on Friday I hung out with Mikel Barfuss. She's another amazing girl. Lots of fun! Also I rented Guitar Hero: Metalica and have playing through that. It's pretty fun. Other than that just a lot of random happenings. I am really working on being more christ-like. I am trying to be more positive and not tear other people down. I am especially working on being more consistent with reading the scriptures and praying daily. Today was a really amazing day for spirituality. I was driving to Cheyenne and listening to The Garden since we are performing that tonight and I was really touched by the spirit about how much the Savior and Heavenly Father loves us. It's such a common expression to say that Heavenly Father and Jesus love me, but having the spirit whisper to my spirit that truth was really amazing. I am really starting to understand what it means to give my will to the Father and let him make of me what He wants. It's an amazing feeling.
