The Coolest Weekend this Month

Last weekend was the coolest. Let my start off with what happened last night. As many of you know I am the president of PLC this year. We were having a staff meeting on what our theme was going to be this year. Earlier that day Mom and Lynsie shared a scripture with me.
2 Nephi 1:21 “Arise from the dust, my sons, and be men” After praying about it and pondering upon it I decided to go with that scripture. I get to my meeting and we get to the subject of what our theme will be. I asked what everyone else chose for the theme. My secretary, Kyle Klein, said that he came up with 2 Nephi 1:20-23. I then asked how many people had come up with that theme as will. Everyone raised their hands. My feelings on this experience are indescribable by the English language. After that I knew that the Lord was directing us for some reason that we know not of. I also know for sure that the Lord guides and directs his servants in the direction he needs them.
Now from the beginning, I have heard from BYU-Id and have been accepted. I don’t know what track I am on yet for they haven’t sent that to me yet. Everyone at home is glade that I got this news for I was driving them crazy with it. So there is the good news about college.
More glad news is that I am getting my braces off in three months. I want them off so badly. It is going to feel great once they are off. Most of you know that already for you had braces when you were younger. For me though I am happy for I am a senior in high school. I will still have them off for the rest of the school year. People that make fun of others for having braces don’t have a clue what they feel like. It is pain when they tighten them up.
On Saturday I got to go to an Army Training Day. It was really fun for I got to miss with 50. caliber machine guns, M203s (grenade launcher for the M-16 A-2), and the SAW. That was really fun as well. They taught me some really cool things like how to take apart some of them. I have also decided not to join the Army for it doesn’t open the right doors that I want opened. I guess that is what I will have to tell Sergeant Johnsons. He is the guy trying to recruit me into the Army. I do have to say that I have a lot of respect for the soldiers in the Army.

The going ons

As you have read on my college update I was denied to BYU. I found out on Monday and I am still waiting to hear from BYU-ID. Other than that there hasn't been much going on. On Saturday I have been invited to go to Camp Williams with the Army. It sounds really fun. This week for school has been really easy for the past two day school hasn't started until 9:30 because of the UBESCT Test. It has been really nice to sleep in. Friday night I am going to Romeo and Juliet and the High School. Hopefully it is fun. I have to go for my english class. For I have to anylize the play. After this week and next I am going to be really sick of writing really stupid essays on really dump things. Other than that there isn't anything going on right now.

College

For the past couple of months I have been waitting, as everyone knows, for my admission to BYU and BYU-Id. Well, it is getting very frustrating because they keep sending me e-mails saying that I should get my answer in the following weeks. At first it was 4 to 6 weeks then to a longer time. Now, if you have seen my college update you would have seen that I won't get my answer for another 8 to 10 weeks from now. I have decided that if they are that far behind going through applications that they are making it so that no one wants to go there. I didn't know if I want to go to a school where they don't really care for my education. Sorry I am getting all of my anger out now so I don't explode on somebody. Other than that I have had no other news about my applications to these two schools.
