My Day: Tuesday

I took a balancing board test with Pat in a research project for BrainLinking this morning at 8:15. I woke up late so I had to get ready super fast, eat breakfast and fly over to the Crabtree building. I then went to my Physical Science class that started at 9:00. It was an interesting lesson because of all the demos, especially watching my teacher trying to get them all to work right. It was also nice because he let us out at 10:10 instead of 10:40 so we could hurry over and try to get a seat for the devotional. I got to sit on the 9th row, 26th seat on the right hand side if looking from the prophet's point of view.

President Thomas S. Monson was this week's devotional speaker. It was absolutely wonderful. He spoke about all of the previous prophets he knew, their favorite food, song, and personal motto and an memorable experience he had with them. My favorite part was when he made the comment "but he was not in the Navy like I was," after talking about a man who was being kindly told off. His talk really proved that prophets are real people. They have fun, run red lights once or twice on accident, clean up by hiding their notes in the refrigerator and mess in the closet and secretaries desk. They love milk and bread and raspberries. In essence, they are human and have their own challenges and trumps. He also noted that each one also displayed a virtue like kindness, charity, devotion, and modesty. From the truth they never wavered, faltered, or failed. I am glad I got to go.

I then hurried and changed for track at 1:00. It was good today. We did various types of drills and warmups. We did 5 min. abs. And when we ran I found some people that go at the same pace or just a bit higher, and so the big 5 laps around the field doing various things wasn't to bad. I showered, wrote this post and now I better start doing my real homework, or I will pay for it later.
