time seems to be going faster and faster these days. its already time for me to start thinking about what I am going to get people for Christmas and where I am going to have turkey dinner and all the other holiday stuff.
you know life has been crazy, I think about what it was like when I was little and what its like now, and I can't help but feel that the world has lost a lot of whole ness, I mean we now have some great stuff but at the same time we have lost a lot of what has made life great. its kinda amazing to see the history of the scriptures repeating.
we start off poor get blessed become rich and prosperous and then we get pride-ful and greedy and morals drop, we crash and burn and then we become poor again and we then become humble and get blessed and then we become rich... etc etc.
I can honestly say I have seen the trend in my life. I just need to work harder at staying humble.
its Friday already and I just know this week end is going to fly by. what should I do to make it worth while? I am going to a movie tonight with my roommates and I really need to do my laundry. I need to clean my room study my scriptures and then study some math. I should write letters to my missionary friends and cousins. I should call my family and see how every one is doing. I want to go to the hot tub and soak, I want to buy a nice bicycle and ride it up the Provo canyon, I need to fix my bicycles so I have some thing to ride to work Monday morning. I want to find a good book to read. I want to cook some thing amazing and feel accomplished. I should exercise....
lots of wants and shoulds and need to's.
I should also upload lots of pictures. I have a few from Halloween that should be shared.
well its time for me to get off work. I will write again some other day.

Yesterday was amazing, it was half way through the week, plus I was able to go to the hot tub for an hour and then I went on a date with Kjirsten Dunn,
at the stake Halloween dance I had a little turtle that I got from work. some time during the dance I lost my little turtle named frank, he disappeared, I thought that I had just lost him and that I would never find him again, on Tuesday when I got on my first break at work I got on facebook and what do I find? A picture of my turtle hanging over a pot of boiling water, with a threat that if I didn't supply the kid-napper with some moon-shine then I would never see my turtle again, and he would be boiled into turtle soup.
I don't have any moon-shine that is ready to be consumed yet, so I was able to negotiate a deal of dinner and a show in place of the moon shine, One of the girls at work performs in plays and ballets and invited me to one of the shows. so I decided that would be a good date. after the show we went and ate at Guru's cafe, as we were standing in line an item came on the screen that said good karma pasta. the name caught my eye so we ordered it not knowing that it was a veggie pasta.
It was pretty tasty. I was impressed with it.
after that we were walking back toward the glenwoods what Kjirsten informed me that she had put her five dollar bill in the bus machine instead of the one that she was supposed to.... we then walked to a gas station to get slushy and then we walked back to the glenwoods. and she got in her car and left. it was way fun. I had a blast!
