Wow, the General Relief Society Meeting was amazing. I love President Uchtdorf so flippin' much! He is an amazing man and his talks are always so inspirational. I loved his list of 5 things that we needed to never forget. Whenever I hear him talk I am overcome with peace and love. This was an especially fun session for me, because it was the first Relief Society Broadcast that I have gone to in person. My friend Maggie (from study abroad) surprised me this morning when she called and told me she had two tickets to the session, and wanted to know if I'd like to go with her. We drove up to Salt Lake. went to the session, and then walked around temple square. I love that place, and I love Maggie. She is a good listener and it's nice to talk to her because she understands everything that happened in Germany and how I feel about things . . . life in general. She's fun too. So much energy and she makes me laugh. We got pictures of us together, but they are all on her computer, so this simple picture of the temple will have to suffice. Needless to say, it was gorgeous.
So, other news in my life. School has been rough. My Statistics for Economists class is way above my head, but I'm working on catching up. I've had a rough go this past month . . . but things are starting to look up. I feel strong . . . independent . . . and I'm ready to be happy. I've got a lot ahead of me this coming semester. I'm going to have to work my butt off, but I'm hoping I'm up to the challenge. I've got some awesome friends here to help me out . . . and I'm more grateful than ever for this church and the Gospel in my life. I don't know where I'd be without it.
