"The Final Judgment is not just an evaluation of a sum total of good and evil acts--what we have done. It is an acknowledgement of the final effect of our acts and thoughts-- what we have become." - Elder Dallin H. Oaks

School and Stuff

Hey guys! This week was the first week of school. This year I am taking AP Calculus, AP American Language/ College Writing, Chemistry, US History, Digital Photography, Concert Choir, Seminary, and Floral Design (which I am hoping to change). It's a pretty good mix of fun, and work! :D
I'm glad to be back at school with all of my friends, and to actually be doing something with my life. Last night my friend, Rachel Johnson, had a volleyball tournament over at the school. I went to part of that, and she made some pretty sweet kills by the way. They won a LOT of their games. They played really well! I also went to the football game which we won 49-20. We were up against "The Stansbury Cripples." (Ha ha that's what my friend John called them.)
Oh. My. Goodness. I can't believe I haven't written about this yet. My birthday was on Sunday! On Saturday, I had a party with a bunch of girl friends. We played games, and were really loud, and then we watched The Last Song, which is actually a very good movie, even though it's starring Miley Cyrus. Then on Sunday, we had family over and we had dinner, and cake and ice cream. Later that night (at 10) I got to go tunnel singing up at BYU with Rachel, Lauren, and John. It was sooo much fun! On Tuesday, Tyler Garver came over to my house and asked me on my first date! It was a blast! We doubled with Andrew Holman and Abi Roundy. We went to Sonic and ordered at the drive thru, and Tyler paid in change because he thinks it's hilarious to do that. Ha ha and then we took our food over to the park by Walmart, Neilson's Park, and ate. Then we rode on the spinny swings for a while. After that we went over to Nickel City and played in the arcade. Tyler and I got enough tickets to get 2 potato guns and some tootie frooties. After that we went to Tyler's house and played a game called Settlement, and Abi completely wiped us out on that game. Ha ha It was a great first date! :D
Today I might go to the farmers market, and then I'm going to be busy going to someone's party. . . I'm not sure if I'm allowed to say what that is until later. . . and then I'm going to go to Steven Pelham's farewell party for a while, and then I will probably go to the stake dance. And ya, that's my awesome life right now.
Hope you all have an amazing weekend! Love ya!
