Due to popular demand, and a little extra time,


I am giving another update. I was just gonna hold off on those cause I'll be home next week but I guess people start to worry when I don't send an email out or something. I've just been busy. This week I had two tests, one in Cs 100 and one in Calc 2, two papers, both for my moral leadership class plus a project that we are supposed to be doing but my group and I are a little behind, plus another paper due on Monday in book of Mormon class. On top of that I have work, which is actually relaxing compared to the rest of my life at the moment, plus in Calc 2 we are studying Power Series along with Taylor and Maclaurian series. The teacher spent the whole class time lecturing on these things and it was all way over my head, I just took note furiously and hoped to get it later. Its coming... slowly. So other than that life is great, the BYU vs UTAH game is tomorrow... so thats pretty exciting. Even more exciting is that thanksgiving is next week... and I get to go home and ride dirtbikes and sleep on the trampoline and watch movies and whatnot... It will be great.
Ok, whats with our family and facebook, its like everyone all at once decided to get a facebook account... first of all, since when would our family do that? thats like completely not what we do... second of all, I got like fifty billion "Your Related!" requests that if you say yes you have to fill out all of the other fifty billion people you are related to and that takes forever, and if you say no it keeps popping back up! Aaaa.... not to say in anyway that you guys should like stop using facebook to keep in touch and all... its great for that... I just have to make a request... please no more "Your Related" requests...
Sincerely,
James

life... (continued)

Well life keeps moving on, midterms are now over but finals are just around the corner. I still need to go food shopping, I haven't done that for over a month... its hard not having a car. I also discovered that I need to buy myself a new pair of jeans, my favorite ones (I bought them off Shaun for 5 bucks over a year ago) I can hold up to the light and literally see through them, they have a few more holes than they used to... its so sad, such a good pair of jeans. Anyways, Its raining right now (...blasted weather...) just enough that I busted out my umbrella, and its just cold enough I wanna wear a jacket. So ya.
Richard went to the MTC Wednesday, it seems like he is leaving but really he is closer to me than when he lived at home... weird. Anyways, I went to the call center on Sunday... almost expecting to see Richard but I was disappointed... I guess the MTC is bigger than just the building that the call center is in. All well...
Anyways, it turns out that I will be coming home for Thanksgiving. I was asked quite a few times about that and i told everyone no because I didn't really wanna bother with finding a ride, paying for gas and traveling in a packed car with weird people i don't know. It wasn't something I would look forward to. But just out of curiosity, I checked the ride board to see who was going to Sacramento, and lo and behold, the Heathcoats were the first ones to pop up. what a coincidence, people i know. (funny story... so that conference a while back, where the apostles talked about prop 8, I was sitting in a room full of people in the chapel behind myself just waiting for the meeting to start, thinking to myself that i didnt know anyone there -since I was actually not at my assigned meeting place- and I overhear the voice behind me expressing exactly the same thing that I was thinking... and so i turn around to find that the voice was john Heathcoat... Its a small world) So i called them up and talked with Jennifer for a bit, it turns out that they are driving a Hybrid...(so it saves on gas) plus with lowing gas prices it wont be too much for me to handle to drive down an extra time.
So thats it for me, for now.... stay tuned, I'll have more updates later (and pictures too)
