Adventure Is Out There!

What a day! Actually, I take that back. What a week! Let's review...

• Last Saturday was the exciting volleyball game versus BYU. We lost, but it was still a good game.
• Testimony meeting on Sunday was wonderful. Also, I made a new friend. His name is Rockwell. He is my neighbor's pet snake.
• For FHE on Monday, we played a grueling game of kickball. Whit actually got nailed in the face. Thankfully, she is okay!
• Tuesday night was my first "expressive lab" in my sign language class. Glad that's over with!
• On Wednesday night I was able to help host an info meeting for work. I loved helping out at the meeting, but after seeing the slideshow of pictures from past volunteers, it really made me question why I'm here and not still in China.
• Also on Wednesday, our ward played our 4th volleyball game. We lost, but I think everyone is having a lot of fun playing. And that's what counts, right?
• My one and only midterm was also on Wednesday. You'd think that out of all of my classes, Stress Management would be the one class that I wouldn't have a midterm in, right? Yeah, that's what I thought too! Wrong. But, I think I did alright.
• Thursday was the beginning of our fall break! Whitley and I went to Halloween City and tried on some ridiculous costumes. Then, after work that night, I went on a hot date! Okay, maybe "hot" isn't a very fitting word. But, it really was a good night. We had dinner at a great Indian restaurant and then went and watched HumorU, a comedy group at BYU.
• After work on Friday, Rachel and I had dinner with Adam and Mike (friends from the ward). FYI- Olive Garden will always be delicious. Then I continued my Scrubs marathon with Adam.. I think we've managed to watch about 20 episodes in a week. Is that unhealthy?
• And now for today, the best day! SATURDAY! I started the morning off by shooting guns down in Payson with friends from the ward. Afterwards, Rachel and I got to spend a little time together (while Whit is in St. George with some friends). Jamba Juice & The Cocoa Bean. Yum! Then we took a short trip to the golf course with Mike, where he ever so patiently taught us to chip and putt. And then we ended the night with a group of friends at a haunted house.

Whew! Good times, huh? I'm definitely staying busy here, but I'm loving every minute of it! ;)
