School began on Tuesday, August 23, 2011 at 7:30 a.m. at Timpview High School. First day okay.. Second day great... Third day better! There are a few classes I need to work on being confident and those are astronomy and geometry. Looks like I'll need a tutor who are good at those subjects because I've been getting slow on the two this past summer. The days got better when the weekend came... a ward party at Uncle Bud's Park, the bike ride with my very good friends Jim and Marianne Larsen, who lived in Rohnert Park while I was there; which they now live in Draper, and the welcoming of Nina and Andrew after they were gone in North Dakota for 2 and a half months doing a service project.
Earlier today, the youth sang the EFY medley, "As Sisters in Zion/We'll Bring The World His Truth," to a missionary who is leaving to serve in Australia. Because it is one of my favorite songs to listen to while it's bringing the powerful message it has, it felt so good to sing.
Have any of you ever felt surprised when you realize it's your last year in high school and think of the day you started Kindergarten? I have. It feels like yesterday I was almost 6 years old when I started as a kindergartner and I turned into a 17-year-old Senior overnight. I can't believe I'm a Senior! Ever since I was a kid, my dream was to go to college so I can be prepared for the adult life and have the opportunities that are available. I'm impressed with the hard work I've done for years in school and are my family and friends. Now this is the year to work hard to graduate and get into the college I want to go to. But I'm remembering to spend every happy moment that is wanting me to enjoy.
