The Calm before the storm... the happy storm. =p

It’s great when things just turn out right. Last week I arrived home on Monday. The next day I drove down to Chick-fil-a to pick up a job application and had a nice chat with my old boss. Later that day I turned in the application and drove over to some store to help my mom stock cards. While stocking I got a call from Chick-fil-a asking me if I could come in the next day and start work. So, by Wednesday I got my old job back, which is nice because I’ll only be in town for five weeks before I head off to the MTC in Provo. Not to mention the hard economic times were in right now. I got really lucky.

As of now I’m just passing the time and counting the days until I enter the MTC. Now, I’m not just spending all of my time working. I’ve been reading the Book of Mormon and plan on finishing it and the New Testament before I leave. I also plan on reading all of the discussions in Preach My Gospel and becoming very familiar with it. For leisure I’m watching the series of Lost and playing the Tales of Symphonia for the Wii.

Oh, I have 35 days left as of now. ^_^

I'm Just Happy

My grades for my first two semesters. I'm just happy about it is all.

Anxious

It looks like I can now say that I have a full year of college under my belt. One fourth of my college time has already gone by. It amazes me that so much of it is already over and yet I really haven’t started on my major. Oh well, I guess I’ll have to hit the ground running when I get off my mission.

Really though, my concern isn’t about what happens after my mission, that’d be lame. As of now I’m super excited to go on my mission. I just want this next month and a half to fly by, because nothing in between now and my mission is really all that important. Well, not exactly nothing. I guess it’ll be good for me to have some time to prepare some more for my mission. But still!! I wanna go. =p

The Song

I love my Adelaide song. ^_^

Seasons

I love the fact that it'll be winter when I go down to Australia. I'll have just finished up one winter and start up another, but the Australian Winter will be much different. No snow, but plenty of rain, so I'm sure going to miss seeing snow like the fresh snow that is falling today. The crunch of it under my feet is still novel to me and I still enjoy how quiet it gets.

Now, when my mission comes to a close I'll have just finished the summer season in Australia, and will be heading back to an Austin Summer, I think. So, I guess its endless cold followed by endless heat for this guy.
