"Just imagine the reversal that would take place if full integrity were to rule in family life. Homes would abound in love, children and parents would have respect for one another, and children would be reared in righteousness through parental example- the greatest teacher of all time."
-N. Eldon Tanner
I have had a blast this week! I mean it is really hot and they don't have AC in the apartments, because it is not life and death out here like it is back home. So it has been a little uncomfortable. So my roommates on Tuesday decided to go night swimming at like 9pm. I had just woken up from a brief nap and the invited me to go. I was super pumped because I have never been night swimming. So we got ready and invited people. There were eight girls and only two boys. Not really even, but oh well. The water in the beginning felt really cold and took awhile to get use too. After you went under it got a ton better. It was a beautiful night. The sky was clear and the stars were shining and the people were fun. It was just our group there this night. There was a waterfall with enough room to go under it and be between the water and the rocks. I could see it being a romantic place. We played the chicken fighting game in the water and just swam around until people were started to get dunked. I am just going to be prideful when I say this, it took three people to take me down and it was only because they all ganged up on me. At the end of our adventure of night swimming we were taking pictures. After the pictures, I got dragged back into the water and ended up tripping on the rocks. It didn't hurt at all, so breath easy. It was a great day.
Then the next day was hot and I was laying listlessly on the couch "trying" to do homework. I am just saying that, because I had the book that I was going to read, but wasn't really reading. I know I am a sinner, because I have finals real soon and so much homework to do, but I just can't really muster the will to do it. Oh well. Well anyway that night we went night swimming again. There was another group there before we got there and more coming. So it was a little crowded, but we met new people. The water was freezing. I don't know why, but it was and there was a lot of foam on top of the water. At first glance I thought that someone had dumped bubble solution into the waterfall. The people that we met there, funny enough they were going to McDonald's as well and we ran into them there and talked for awhile. Then we went home. I couldn't sleep that night as well, because earlier and I mean around four something I fell asleep and someone, I don't know who, was tapping and they wouldn't stop for like an hour and a half. I had fallen asleep, but got woken up and couldn't go back to sleep. I saw a light on and came out here to check who it was. One of my roommates is sick and couldn't sleep either. She was up and we talked for a little bit, before we both went back to bed. I was out like a light after that, because the person who was tapping stopped. It was a glorious moment!
School is winding down. It is almost summer time! I am ready for summer and no homework. It is only sad that it is for a month and then I am back to school. OH well. The price I pay for an education. Finals are in two weeks. I hope that I can do my best and get good grades for the semester.
Other news, my cousin who is going on a mission to Arizona is in the MTC. I didn't know it till this week. I wish that I had gotten the chance to say good-bye and good luck. I will miss him, but I know that what he is going to the Lord's work and I am so very happy that he is doing so. Tomorrow is my littlest sisters birthday and when I talked to her earlier, she was really upset that I wants going to be there for her birthday. But I hope that she stills has a great time.
Well that is really all that is going on in my life as of now. I will keep you posted on any developments.
