General Conference! :D

Today and yesterday were both amazing days!!

I truly enjoyed taking the past two days to listen to General Conference. All the inspired words that were given helped me so much to listen to what the Spirit had to share with me, for my life. I know that if I seek out even further those promptings, I will be able to vastly improve my life, my spirit, and my way to salvation. I wish that everyone could feel the greatness that was felt today and yesterday and I think it's wonderful that so many people already receive this message worldwide. I have faith that, one day, the message will be brought to every soul and I have hope, for them, that they might accept it wholeheartedly and find the joy that the Savior brings.

My mother and sister were out shopping after her soccer game, so it was just the boys yesterday. I had such a fun time with my father last night as we spent time together watching conference and priesthood session- just the two of us; an occurrence that is very rare. However, when it does happen, I always find that I have an amazing time learning from him and just talking to him. He has so much to offer to my spirit and I know that he plays a gigantic part in my growth as a young man. He's a fantastic person and I look forward to sharing more nights full of wonderful conversation with him like I did yesterday. :)

Oh Snap, Girl!

My first blog post. Oh yes- I'm so legit. (Probably not; I'm pretty sure that no one will actually read this, but... YES, I AM SO COOL.)

Due to lack of sleep, I don't think this has been a very extra special, thought-provoking day, which was unusual until recently. I suppose that brains stop functioning after not getting an allotted amount of sleep- mine sure does! >:D Morning practice for swim team was pretty incredible, and by incredible I mean absolutely ridonkulous. Rather than swim, I did push-ups, sit-ups, and DEATH LUNGES all the way around Kino Pool.

Yeah. It happened.

So, I really can't help but laugh because I've been walking around my house like a insanely decrepit human being. :)

School was as school is. Painful, excruciating... Bahahah. To be honest, my academic endeavors weren't all that horrid today. It was nice to have an early morning assembly to both wake me up and distort my future thoughts of penguins and angels! Skipping past the epic win that is Trig, we come upon the epic obstacle that is AP Bio. That I am here, writing this, should be sufficient proof that I miraculously surpassed the Great Wall of Taxonomy on this fine Friday, though. The rest of the day went by fast like usual, however. Though, we did have quite the raging substitute teacher in German today. She basically freaked out at this kid who was utterly confused, and once the whole class admitted they were equally confused with her non-Deutsch-sprechen-ness (which is definitely an adjective), I believe she just gave up on us. I wonder what would happen if we all spoke to her in German. She would have just gone psycho... Maybe next time. ;D

Seminary was wonderful today- it was Seminary Conference. As a prelude to General Conference, I felt that the speakers, performers, and everyone else did an incredible job on everything. All three talks, as well as the testimonies, were able to enter into my heart and set the tone for me to be open as I listen to the servants of the Lord tomorrow as well as on Sunday.

Swim proceeded as usual, besides the exceptional high-fives shared after test sets as a result of achieving epic times. Was it bomb? You know it was.

I find it quite humorous that someone like me, who is very skilled in technology and things of that nature, took SO. DANG. LONG. to figure out how to work this blog. It was definitely worth it though, and, as simple as it may be, I am pleased with what I did- especially for a broseph. I mean, it's stereotypical of males to fail at this sort of thing, right?. Hahaha, I will figure it out, though- I'm a fast learner. :)
