Wow. Just wow. It has been a crazy last week since I updated you last. So here it goes.
I got to be in the Mormon Miracle Pageant for three nights in the Christ in America scene. It was absolutely amazing. It was like I was really there. It is totally an amazing experience that I am never going to regret. I got eaten alive by mosquitoes that week. (Who knew mosquitoes is spelled with a q?) Right after I was done staying with my cousins I went to youth conference with my ward. And I have to say that whole weekend I was thoroughly spoiled rotten.
The first day I was there (which was the second day everyone else was) we were going to do a service project. However when we all got up that morning we discovered that my sleeping bag and my jacket had gotten left at the pageant that night. So while all the other kids went to go pull weeds and lay sod at a park one of the adult couples that was there drove me back to Manti to try and find my sleeping bag. After we found it and got back to camp, Sister Gale gave me the option of going to help with the service project, helping start lunch, or she said I could go take a nap in her trailer. Needless to say, I took a nap.
Later that day we went to the lake. Normally the leaders are very pushy about getting me to do things with the other kids, and usually I just do, but this time they just let me sit around in the leaders area and just sit there. It was great. Sister Dayhuff also went and found me a nice shower house and one of the other leaders went with me to go shower. On that trip I also didn't have to cook at all, I barely helped clean or set or take down camp. I was so tired by the end of that week that the leaders just let me kind of kick back and not doing anything. They didn't even wake me up during testimony meeting when I fell asleep.
Once I got home I went to the SMG Flogging Day Party. (It's just a summer party). I got to play with my cute nieces and nephews and I also got to see one of my best friends and her cute daughter. I ended up spending like two hours playing with her and her daughter at the park; in the dark. It was so much fun.
Now for a little not fair thing.
I went in to Maeser to take their math placement test. I took entrance into Pre-Calculus test. I didn't make it. They are putting my in Algebra 2 again. I have taken that class two years in a row. I would like to be done with it.
