18 Months an Angel: The Sequel

Hey friends! I like to read the Book of Mormon by theme sometimes, and have been reading through the book this summer with a friend. Our theme has been looking for Christ. Some of you reading this may know a lot about the Book of Mormon, but I'm sure there are those of you who have either never heard of it, or aren't very familiar with it. The Book of Mormon is a book of scripture connected to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, or Mormons. The book is similar to the Bible, because it is a record of God's interactions with his people, through both experiences and sermons given by prophets of God. However, rather than taking place in the Old World, as the Old and New Testaments do, the Book of Mormon was written on the American continent. It is another testament of Jesus Christ. However, those who are first becoming acquainted with the book may have questions about the role of Christ in the Book of Mormon, as well as in the LDS (Mormon) religion. The Book of...

5.30.17 Today we had our second to last frisbee game. It started pretty late, about 9:15pm. Scott picked me up and we drove over to the game. As soon as we got to the field I jumped out of the car and jogged over to check in. I hid my arm half behind my back as we were doing the preliminaries, hoping they wouldn't find my Fitbit. I was blessed, because they didn't see it;)  The game went well. We had seven players, so we had a full team but we didn't have any subs so we were all on the field for the entire hour, which gets tiring. As usual, the team was killing it. There was also a girl I hadn't met before named Lacey who was amazing! I spent almost the entire game on defense, just trying to block whoever I was assigned to. I did pretty well, although the other team had fast girls and subs. At the end of the game I passed the frisbee maybe twice, although other than that I just did defense and ran a lot.  We all did our best, although the score near the ...

I definitely got behind! Don't worry friends, I'm going to try to cover all of the March adventures that have yet to receive documentation ;) March 1: Latin dancing with Dominique  As everyone already knows, I love going to Tuesday night dancing at the Wilk, and this time I got to go with my cousin! I got there at 7:30 for the Country Swing, and went through the Latin practice from 8:30 to 9. At about 9:10 my cousin Dominique walked in. I peered in her direction, making sure it was her. She did the same, and waved when we realized that we'd found each other. She started walking over, just as a guy came up behind me and asked if I was waiting for some other guy or if I was free to dance. I told him I was free to dance, but continued to look over towards where Dominique was. The guy caught on to that and asked me if I was sure I wasn't waiting for another guy or my date. I told him I was looking for my cousin, but "not to worry", because she was a...

From Tuesday to Tuesday a lot has occurred! Shall we begin? Tuesday: Country and Latin dancing As all of you have probably noticed, I enjoy dancing! After getting out of my 251 English class I headed over to dance. When I got there and as I was setting my stuff down I say someone out of the corner of my eye staring at me, a shocked expression written on her face. None other but Madeline Hawkins, one of the sisters who served with me in Buenos Aires and a CCM buddy. She ditched momentarily the guy she was dancing with and tackled me in a hug. It was so great to see her! We both had a great time country dancing :) I stayed for the latin dancing, and was able to help out a guy who was just learning. He picked up quickly and was a pro at dips! I danced with a couple very talented latin guys and managed to keep up, although we were all exhausted as the dancing ended at 10. Wednesday: Country swing date After getting out of class at 7:40... which was extremely interesting as usual, I h...
