Summer Status Report – Pretty Awesome

Hi, everybody. Anyway, it's been a while (like, a month or so) since I've posted a real post here. (well.. there *was* that last one, but you can just pretend like that post doesn't even exist for now.) I just plain haven't really wanted to post anything lately. Well, now I want to. I now present to you: Summer Status Report: Aught Seven.

So anyway, right off the bat, the first weekend, I took the ACT. Ugh. It was my first time taking it, and it had it's ups (reuniting with pretty much all my former junior class one more time) and downs (well... the entire test :P) I got a 27 on it, not *too* bad for my first try. Later that night was another multi-stake church dance. I've decided that these things really are fun, after all. There was music, fun, crazy dancing, all the things that you usually associate with things like this. The chance to meet up with friends (even a couple new ones, too) was pretty sweet. I even slow danced with all five of my Viewmont dance dates. Yay.

Later this month I went to my ward's first Youth Conference, which, I have to admit, was a lot funner than I anticipated it being. We went to various different places in central Utah.. We spent most of our time at a house/cabin thingy in Fairview, but we also went to Clas Ropes Course in Provo, Snow College to play some games, and the Mormon Miracle Pageant in Manti. Other highlights included an attempt at playing water games, which actually erupted into a huge, two-hour long water fight (with 5-gallon buckets of water galore), before the games could even be set up. Attempts to actually play any sort of organized game backfired pitifully. It was a blast.

That's most of the major stuff that's gone on so far. There's probably been more, but I can't think of anything else. But yeah, summer so far has been awesome. It's been the funnest summer ever, and I owe it all to you awesome people reading this thing right now. Yes, there has been a tonsfold increase in hanging-outitude. Almost every day this summer I've been at somebody's house, and my cellphone usage has gone WAY up since summer began. (Thank goodness for unlimited texting) The fact that two of my best friends now work with me at the Murph also helps, too. Oh, also, I think I've finally figured out how to get more people to come to this thing. Post links to it in certain publicized places. I think it's working. Well, I'm out. Peace.

Hmm.. my stake is having a youth conference thing but it's not traveling. They were having a party in my neighbor's backyard, but I forgot to go. I can see their backyard from my bedroom window though so I just shined my laser pointer at their house for like a good half hour then I got bored. I wonder how they reacted to that.. (I was about 100 yards away, heheh)
