On Monday, for FHE we played the awkward game. Everyone writes some sentences on pieces of paper that could be awkward. Then two people stand up, toe to toe, and they read the papers without laughing. You can smile, but not laugh! Yay... I was better then I thought, but still lost miserably! I actually lost because I responded to the sentence the other person said, and everyone laughed at my response! I love FHE!
On Tuesday, I just had my work meeting where I heard the best joke from our boss. (He gives us like 20 jokes every Tuesday). DAD and WILL remind me to tell you the joke!!!! I forgot to tell you yesterday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh And I think this was the day I woke up sick.... :/ ugh.
On Wednesday, it was a beautiful day outside :). I also needed to relax so I went on a search for a piano. We have piano's all over campus but it was a struggle. I wanted to go play at the piano on the 3rd floor of Main Hall. It overlooks the campus and its very pretty! I headed that way and heard a flute coming from that room. I still walked to the 3rd floor, just to walk all the way back down. Then I headed over to Landrum where the piano class is. Fading point (Our A ccapella group) was getting ready to go somewhere and they were blocking the door, so I just ran away! I ended up going for a walk around the loop that I made for myself and was about to give up, when I headed toward the Institute building. I found an empty room and played the piano! It was a much needed 20 minutes.
On Thursday, Our volleyball team made it to the semifinal round of some high up competition. This was the first time our school got to host the event, because our team is awesome! We were tied with them pretty much the whole game! It was neck and neck! But we lost.... It was so sad! I realized that I love watching volleyball though. One of the highlights of going to any sporting event on campus is that the missionaries bring otterpops! Even if its cold outside. All the students look forward to it! In the picture its Me, Ewa, Genny, and Alex!
On Friday, It was Rebekah's birthday. Anna got everyone to right a note and quotes and she decorated Rebekah's door. Our Friday Forum was by Scott Watterson co-founder of ION Health and Fitness. He taught us the importance of decision making and how Christ and Heavenly Father need to be the people we go through. To prove this he had us all think of a question we wanted an answer. We then were handed a fortune cookie and he said that what ever fortune we got was our answer. Some people's matched exactly! Mine sort of worked.. but not the best. He told us that he was worried that with all the technology we as humans, were starting to make decisions in the poorest of ways! It was really good! I think I say that every week, but they really are such a blessing and are a good weekly check in.
After Astronomy I just came back to my room and crashed. My sickness had gotten the better of me. I went to dinner by my self. On a side note, I hate eating dinner at 5 and having it be pitch black outside! At 9:30 I went to the first "Knight Sounds". It was another musical event where Ewa and the schools band, Hills on Fire, performed. There is so much talent! It was great!
On Saturday, I had the opportunity to go to the President's house. Our new President and his Wife have been inviting groups of people to come talk about our school. People could bring complaints, and concerns or ideas to improve Southern Virginia University. Ewa, Elizabeth and I signed up for Saturday and we went. Their house is a gorgeous white victorian house. (That was the main reason I wanted to go, to see the inside of their house ;) Just kidding!) I agreed with some points brought up, but disagreed with a lot. They fed us bagels, juice, fruit, and donuts. There were a ton left, so I said I was going to work (everyone else was going to the football game), so I took the rest of the donuts and some bagels. Everyone's reactions when I offered them some food at work were so great! We streamed the football game at work, and it was the first game we have won all year! Wohoo!
After work I enjoyed talking to Grandma and Grandpa Lambert! I had dinner and then went home. I should have gotten some work done, yay that didn't happen. Then at 8:30 we had a party in my room! Our plan was to play bannangrams and watch a movie. We ended up talking till 11 and then starting Princess Diaries 2! It was so funny because we all love that movie, so we were yelling and quoting and singing till 1:30 in the morning! So great! I think we all needed the break.
On Sunday we had a great sacrament meeting. Elizabeth gave a talk! That was good. I FaceTimed my family and talked to Grandma and Grandpa D. I love Sunday's!
This is the beginning of the final stretch of the semester! I am so stressed and I have 3 tests this coming week. But Thanksgiving is fast approaching and I am so grateful for the Christmas break that is just 31 days away!!!!!! :)! Saying that, I have learned that loving everyday is important. I sometimes make everyone at dinner say one good thing that happened that day, because the stress and negativity is polluting campus!
I hope you have a good week! Good luck with any stressful things you have coming up!
