This was an interesting weekend. Mandy wanted to go down to Provo to visit her elders so I followed along. It was fun, but a little disappointing. We were all supposed to meet in Salt Lake City to go ice skating. We arrived early and decided to hang out at temple square for a while. We went to go see the Christus statue in the visitors center. Up there, we ran into a Malaysian sister who spoke Indonesian! It was awesome. I was able to speak with her for a quite a while. Mandy was understanding, although a little upset since she didn't get to see everything she wanted to. I made her go down to the basement before we left, so she took a lot of pictures of stuff down there.
Everyone we were supposed to meet to go ice skating bailed on us, so we went by ourselves. It was really fun. I enjoyed it. I still want to buy a pair of ice skates. I like it so much... I just wish I was better at it.
After ice skating we drove down to see Jacob and Elise. We just talked and ate pizza. I finished up part of my homework and turned it in. That's really all that happened that night. In the morning we just sat around talking again, so i worked on my research paper and got it finished, for the most part. Mandy insisted that I shave, so she and Jacob went out to buy razors for me. After that we went to the draper open house. I got to see Kindy for that. It was awful though. It took so long and I didn't really learn any thing. 2.5 hours later, we had dinner and then headed home. We used my computer to watch Madagascar 2 again. It was fun. Then we ate pizza and I really finished off all my homework.
We left around 11:00 AM this morning. Mandy was upset with me because I apparently spent too much time on my computer. Enough for Jacob to make fun of me for it to her. I don't get it. I did so much so that we could go on this trip and it doesn't get recognized. I worked my butt off last week so I could spend as much time playing as I did. I skipped a class that I probably shouldn't have, and I still didn't do some homework that I should have done because I knew this trip was important to her. I played games for a lot of the ride home. That made her angry too. I couldn't think of anything to talk about. So I played some games and just sang along with the radio. I don't know what she wanted... whatever. Either way, I'm going to have another busy week this week to get caught up. It was fun though.
After she told me about Jacob making fun of me, I was in a bit of a bad mood and didn't say anything the rest of the trip really. I don't know why it bothers me so much when people bug me about being on the computer. Yeah, at home I deserve it, but I'm really not on the computer much more than I must be up here, especially not at Jacob and Elise's. I had to get that work done. Everyone has something they do all the time. Some people watch TV, some read, some play on the computer, others do other things. Everyone has their niche.
I was able to stop and see my family on the way home. Rett was there and I don't get to see him very often, so it was fun. We were there for 4 hours and got a bunch of jerky from my parents. I took my Biology quiz, my last bit of homework, and we came back to Rexburg. After that we just watched 24. It was good. A nice relaxing weekend. One that I'll unfortunately have to pay for however. I'm going to try to write in here more often. We'll see what happens though. At any rate, this is more than enough for tonight. I'll see you later.
