Tuesdays With Morrie

Am I a nerd for liking  a book I read for school? For NV we have a book report due tomorrow; I just finished mine. We read Tuesdays with Morrie, that is an amazing book. I suggest EVERYONE to read it, it's a very simple read. Morrie is diagnosed with ASL and as his body decays he talks to Mitch about life and death and man-kind. There's so much wisdom to be learned from this true story. Yes it's a true story. Aren't the best books always?

Well as always, I am swamped with school work. Between NV and APBIO I am dying. My APBIO teacher was NOT kidding when she said 2 hours a night on homework. And that alone is a killer class but then I include NV? Like I ADORE NV and all the girls in my class. And most the work we do is really interesting, but it is a lot of outside class work. A lot of chapter reading and worksheets. My math class is easy at least :) My teacher seams kind of bipolar though, I haven't learned his sarcasm yet so I never know when he is joke screaming or actually angry screaming... It's a little scary but I know I'll get used to it.

So I decided, or well I realized, that I am supposed to go on a mission. The other day in my school blessing from my dad I realized that I am meant to go on one when I am 21. It's kind of a scary thing-going somewhere where you know no one and talking to random strangers until you find the right one? The one who needed you? But also it's very encouraging, to make me want to be good and learn and choose the right. You know I see all my friends struggle with having to find colleges and figure out what they want to do with their life as in a career. And I see myself and I've got it figured out for the most part, and I thank that to the church and this amazing gospel. It provides so much direction and such a great plan for life. My life is definitely easier because of the gospel.

I am eternally grateful for it.

Well time for more homework. This is going to be a study-filled school year...
