Yes, well, finals are over again, and now it's time to figure out what to do with the next two weeks of my life. It seems like a cruel trick to get our brains so super-loaded and force us to survive 12 hour library days for at least a week straight, to then send us packing to our families and suddenly event-free lives. Right. All of my roommates and pseudo roommates (aka Heather, Erica, Amy, and April) have been home for a while, and I'm still at the apartment. Chatham town has become a ghost town, and seeing so many people at church today was a bit of an overload. Yeah, that may be a bit of an exaggeration, but still.
I spent Friday driving. With the onset of snow, it took me three hours to drive from my apartment to Bountiful, which is just north of Salt Lake. That was a bit boring. Morgan and I spent the night celebrating the success of other people's social lives, hitting up three wedding receptions. Two of them happened to be right next to each other, which made things a bit easier--thanks guys! Nate Weir and Steve Howell are now married (not to each other...)! Whoa.
Friday night my sister Katelyn came over and we goofed off. We went to the BYU bookstore on Saturday and then were off to my grandparent's for dinner and to watch the Vegas bowl...21-31: thanks guys.
Our stake was combined today for church, as so many students are now home. We met at 9 am, which gave me the whole rest of the day to myself. That was a bit overwhelming, since we normally have church at 1. I did manage to watch The Testaments, Walk the Line (NOT a Sunday movie...or uplifting at all....he was just an abusive, immature, arrogant jerk and I was so mad she agreed to marry him...I'd always be afraid!), and an hour and a half of shows on TLC about "little people".
I did take an hour break and visited Zeke in our ward, eating some pie he made, and then killed some more time by reading (Count of Monte Cristo--I love it!).
Right...what am I going to do tomorrow? I work 11-5:30, and then the same time on Tuesday, and then I'll go home for Christmas. But what do I do with my nights?
Oh I also vacuumed our bedroom, did laundry, the dishes, cleaned the counters, swept, and talked to my Dad and then Amy on the phone for an hour each. How are days so long? Maybe I'll watch Rocky tomorrow....
