I got a haircut!

My roommates kept telling me that my hair was ugly and I shamelessly admit it was, but I just never had time to get a haircut.  I finally broke down and did it the other day and I got pictures of it before.  I wasn't trying to be cool and grow an afro, it just happens that way.

The Elusive Scriptures

It was quite a horrible day two weeks ago when I lost my scriptures.  I didn't even notice until I went to study them one morning and they weren't there.  I remembered that I had taken them with me to all of my classes after institute so I figured that I must of left them in one of the classrooms.  Well two weeks later they still hadn't shown up in any of the lost and founds.  Then I checked my e-mail for the first time in two weeks and lo, and behold I read this:

"One of the professors found your scriptures.  He  left them for you in the Language Arts Dept, Old Main 204."

Needless to say we were finally reunited today and then I just went and checked my e-mail and look what I got:

"You can pick up your stuff in BNR 101 any time 8-5 tomorrow. Just ask Judy for it."

Yep, that's right I left them in another place just a few hours after I found them.  It's quite embarrassing.  Maybe some day I'll learn how to keep track of my stuff, but for now I'll just count on good lost and found locations throughout campus.  The moral of the story:  we should study our scriptures every day.

September Morning

Sorry this post is coming a little early, but maybe semi-quarterly is better anyway. Today I decided that working on Fridays for sure is not cool. When I get home at nine all my friends are already out doing something cool and it's too late for me to join, kind of like coming at halftime and expecting to play. All I know is that this semester is going to be ridiculous - I really didn't think 17 credits would be hard at all, but it turns out that when they're all hard classes it can be kind of taxing. Two chemistry classes, calculus (the easiest of my classes), Russian, and two chemistry labs. I actually love it though compared to not having enough to think about. I also am working 20 hours per week which is good for me. Thursday night I went to bed at 5:00 in the morning and woke up at 7:00 for class, I had to do a big fat presentation in Russian the next day. To top it all off there are cool people that live all around and they all like to stay up until 1:00 A.M. everynight and try to not let me sleep. Despite the busyness (as opposed to business) life is amazing when you have good roommates. We've already been fishing, tubing down the canal, and all kinds of cool stuff. Basically the point of this post is to say that college is good and I like it.
P.S. The only horrible thing that happened was the other day on the way to work. I had the tubes I borrowed from someone to float down the river on in the car and I think it got to hot and next thing you know one of them straight exploded. It was quite sad.
