-Met a ton of people - I have a goal to be one of those people who always remembers people's names the first time, and then doesn't forget them. Switching wards is great practice for that. The people I've met are great so far.
-Had a bonfire - I took an old pallet from work (with permission of course) and we went in the canyon for a big apartment group date. I'd never done a winter bonfire before. It's actually pretty fun. I think the snow and freezing cold makes it better.
-Watched The Diving Bell and the Butterfly - an excellent french film that I would recommend to anyone. It is based on a true story of a man who suffered a massive stroke and is resigned to complete paralysis except for the ability to blink one eye. Very eyeopening in understanding those with disabilities. I also saw The Emperor's New Groove this week, and it was seriously the funniest cartoon I've ever seen.
-Had Chinese dinner night - we had an apartment of girls over on Sunday for a chinese dinner, and it actually turned out great, considering we didn't know any of them, and none of us had ever cooked chinese. This sunday is Mexican night.
-Got my new laptop (finally!) - I was such a wreck without it, but now it's here. I like the upgraded network card that lets me surf the internet and download at literally 10 times the speed of my old wireless card. Plus the webcam is pretty cool. I'll be practicing and reviewing my speeches for public speaking with it. Here's what I look like now, while I'm typing this.
-Went to amazing devotionals - I really appreciated seeing President Monson on Sunday, and Elder Holland on Tuesday. I think their talks were a great strength to me. I'm so grateful to be here at BYU at this time in my life. There's so much to do, and so little time to waste!
OK, I'd better go now, I have class in just a few minutes. Have a great week!
