Sunday was a really good day. It started out with a great trip to church. It was so good. All of our new friends bore their testimonies and it was so cute. They all cried, and we cried, and it was just awesome. :] These boys will make really great missionaries in the very near future. I also choristed the music for the first time. Oh boy. I almost killed myself. I was standing on the little stair thing, leading away, I somehow lost my balance, my shoe slipped off of the stair, and I had to catch myself on the piano. It was almost a potentially extremely embarrassing situation. Can you imagine? The chorister's first week up there, she slips and knocks herself unconscious on the piano. It would be just grand. I could never ever live that down. And then to top it all off, in Sunday School, i tried to re-inact my almost death in front of the congregation, and actually almost killed myself. It was so embarrassing. I refuse to wear those shoes to church ever again. After church we came home and studied studied studied. Me and Tori spent a long time working for our Monday finals, and listened to fabulous church music. We took a break, made ourselves some dinner, and watched the Christmas Devotional. We then studied some more, and headed off to Ward Prayer. We were kind of stressed right before Ward Prayer because we realized that neither of us had Scantron sheets. Luckily, Grant, the attractive triplet, came to our rescue, calmed us down, and told us that he had Scantrons we could have. So later that night him and Tryn brought them over, and I made them Hot Chocolate in return. It was a very good night. We studied some more, and Grant helped Tori study for the final that they both had the next day. We finally got to bed (kinda) around one. However, neither me or Tori slept. We were both awake almost all night long, just laying there. It was so horrible. Then, at five thirty, we get a knock on my door. Maddison is standing there, and she says, we need to pray. That's it. I was so confused. So the three of us knelt on my floor and Maddison prayed for us. She was teriffied, and neither me or Tori knew what exactly was going on. When Maddison was finished, Tori said she wanted to say a prayer as well. Halfway through, both of us start crying. We still have no idea what is going on, and I thought I was dreaming. Tori is praying, we're crying, and Maddison is scared out of her mind. We found out after the prayer, that Maddison had felt some sort of evil presence, or what she believed to be evil, and was really freaked out. It makes sense, because both her and April have come a long way over the past couple of weeks, and are both getting very involved in their religions. (April gets to take the sacrament next week. We're very excited.) It was cool, but terrifying. By some miracle, I woke up an hour later, took my final, and have remained functioning all day today. My final went well. I didn't get the greatest score, but the rest of the class didn't do so well either, so I'm hoping there will be a curve involved. The wind was so bad today and last night however. Oh my. I thought I was going to die walking across campus. I like had to use a ton of force just to propel my body forward. It felt like thousands of ice daggers were finding their way through the seams of my jeans and implanting themselves into my thighs. My cheek cells were turned to ice cubes, and I thought I would loose my ability to express emotion forever. I thawed however, and now it's just incredibley cold here. But I love it. :] Mostly. We didn't do very much for the rest of the day, because all our classes are over. Me, Tori, and Maddison spent a really long time (4 hours) in my bedroom, just talking and laughing. We have bonded so well. :] (I almost just compared our bond to that of an atom, Biology has forever tainted my normalcy) I'm really going to miss her when she goes back to Washington. We had another church study party as well, and we all studied our different scriptures. :] It's really great. We tried to go to the temple today, but we forgot that it's closed on Monday. We're going to try to go tomorrow. I'm so tired. I have not slept in twenty four hours. I think that that was how Heavenly Father answered my prayers. He kept me awake all day today, even though I had a serious lack of sleep. I'll take any blessings. :] I wrote Cam today as well. Best news of all before I finally go crash, Troy called me tonight. :] He was very cute on the phone, and we are going out on Saturday for sure. :] Very excited. I hope all goes well!! The goose down and a hard twin mattress are requesting my company.
