A Child From Eden

Here is a good story:

Once upon a time, although not too long ago, a young man wrote a (dare I say, awesome!) blog post about his experience with a wonderful lightning storm. He was shirtless and didn't have a care in the world. He sang hymns as the pouring rain drenched his hair and skin. However, writing his post by candle light, he couldn't post on his blog because the power was knocked out! Since computers hate the young man from time time, the completely finished post did not save and was lost forever. 

THE END.

Cool story no? Good rising and falling action, and that climax WOW! What a thriller!! 

So. . . . I've started college! I'm taking a sign class (which is getting more and more difficult to wake up for as the days progress on) and my teacher is most defiantly deaf! Today she asked me where one would find an ATM I understood the question but not sure why she was asking me in the middle of class. I told her I didn't know. The answer she was looking for was a bank, not the literal location of the closest Automated Teller Machine, which is in the Sorensen Center by the way! 

My schedule also includes: mission prep (WITH PRESIDENT TOONE!!!), stagecraft (pretty much the same class I took in 8th grade but still interesting) Racquetball- so I can school Robert, and a speed reading class! I still need one more credit though to fulfill my scholarship requirements! I'm screwed.

I have made a goal to get in shape since starting college, and apparently I'm doing the typical new years resolution thing- failing the first week and telling myself I'm going to hit it hard on week 2! BUT I am taking the stairs and not the elevators- which is good for me because throughout the day I go up and down at least 36 floors, literally! Needless to say by fall break my calves will rock Farr's world!!

Also- lost my keys today, but found them after walking the entire campus twice!! and my debit card got declined, why you ask? because The Bloody Junction Market didn't have enough money in their account! What was I trying to buy when it got declined? A workbook for my speed reading class that costs $3.45- only had $3 on me, so for my first time, the cashier had to spot me money. Dirty.

Question- how does one meet people at college? How does one meet cute girls in college? Where does everyone go? why am I not there? I'm simply lost in the wilderness on this one!!

oh didn't you hear that one hearing boy is at the university now!

  1. I literally just laughed out loud at that Farr reference.
    Who's President Toone? I'm sorry I'm ignorant.
    Nice job working "that one hearing boy" into every last sentence.
    Answer- No one knows. We all just go with the flow. I feel lost too, like I should be having more fun (even though I AM having fun, you know?). So when I figure this one out, I'll let you know. As far as cute girls though, I'm pretty good at meeting them. I just walk down my hall and knock on a door. Unfortunately, you don't really have that same privilege. Oh wait, you do.

  2. President Toone is one of the leaders of Heritage Tours that has done every job fro the church it seams minus being an actual general authority. and I don't know which rooms are girls and which are boys they are all mixed together!
