A pretty good day I would say

On the other note, I went with my mom today to a Ward Council for Capitol Ward in Montgomery and talked to a man that was a high councilmen for Magnolia at one time. He asked me how school was going and I told him hopefully December(which I hope happens even though I know the University is going to come up with another pull out of their butt class that I need and can't graduate then.) and he was telling me, being a lawyer, that I needed to think about law school. He said and I quote because this man is a very interesting man. He looks at me with the very serious face and then says, "This is what I want you to do. You need to take the LSAT." I cracks me up because I felt like a youth who was being interviewed by the bishop and getting advice on problem I had. I guess you had to be there and know him. This guy answers the phone by saying his name in place of "hello". He used to call for dad all the time seeing as my dad was branch president and talk to him about high council/branch president stuff. Dad would get so tickled. Anyway, So he tells me that and I am actually a little tiny bit interested because a saw a job for a paralegal and it looked pretty good and looked like hit paid well. Oh, then he comes up to me before the first meeting was about to start and whispers in my ear, "law school". Mom looked at me and said I guess he was supposed to be the still small voice whispering to you. Knowing him I sure. Other people I saw was a girls camp leader that was over my level one year. It was really good to see her it had been a while. I also saw a girl I felt sorry for at girls camp (lots of girls camp memories came back to me) because nobody talked to her. Later I found out why. I feel bad for her but she is annoying as crap. I also saw a friend that had moved from Tuscaloosa to Montgomery last August. She is still awesome as ever.

Spring Break 2007 (with no money).

I would like to say that I had all this money and was able to go on a road trip to who knows where, but seeing as I am a senior in college and my job is lets just say really really flexible there was no more money beside for bills. However I did have the opportunity and glad I did to spend time with my parents. This week consisted of me sleeping in, hooray, while mom and dad went to the pasture to build a barn for their goats. I know, I know, your thinking why didn't you help your mom and dad. One reason, I suck at helping, I tried, I stood there and watched dad crawl around on the rafter while mom nervously watched, while standing on the scaffolding in case he needed her help. Every once in a while I would stand on a 2x4 while dad cut it with his saw and hold the ladder while dad climbed up, but other than that I don't think I was much of a helper. So the second day they went I stayed in bed. Mostly I have read a book I got for Christmas. It is kind of interesting, but kind of boring at the same time. I rode around in the Explorer with mom when she took a couple who don't have a car to Thomasville so they could get some groceries. It was good to spend a little time with mom. Oh, and speaking of goats I went with mom and dad to another goat auction. Dad was selling some goats and ended up getting a little more money than they bought them for. It was fun to see the goats surprising look as the door opened to let them into the gated area to get bidded? on. Yesterday I had the most awesome experience though. My oldest nephew which is the oldest grandchild was baptized. I got so emotional, the spirit was so so strong. I told mom later I can't imagine what I am going to be like at my children's baptism if I'm that emotional at my nephew's baptism. He followed his aunt's example and had to do it twice because something didn't go under, maybe a toe or something else. I felt so old. That was basically my Spring Break and most likely my last.
