November 5

Hello everyone I'm sorry that it took me forever to get this thing updated for everyone so it seems that i left off the week before homecoming so i will pick up there.

So on Tuesday the devotional was good, the band played and there was someone who gave a speech to us, after the devotional the school provided us with free lunch, i know every college students dream.

On Wednesday it was back to classes as usual so pretty boring again. Except that i have been going to the temple every Wednesday night so that is something to look forward to.

On Friday it was time for the Homecoming dance, there were a couple to choose from, there was a formal one, a semi formal one and a casual one, my friends and i decided that we would go to the casual one since this one looked like it would be the most fun. The theme for this dance was like all glowwy so when we got there we got neon paint on us and glow sticks. Inside the dance there were so mane black lights and everyone was glowing different colors and it was very cool, we danced the night away in our usual way we do, then after we got back to the dorms i took my date out for ice cream, and so did my roommate and while we were there eating our ice cream outside, this creepy old guy came up to us and started talking to us randomly, it was quite weird.

On Saturday the homecoming game had a lot of excitement in the air, the guys in my dorm building got together and we played a game of football as an elders quorum. This was a lot of fun and we all hoped that the football game would be great as well. We played against the TCU Horned Toads, and it was basically no game at all, I was used to this sort of thing and it reminded me of our football team back in high school because they always lost bad as well.

The Monday after that I taught another lesson for FHE as it was my turn to teach. I taught

Tuesday there was another devotional and it was again a very good one, it was done by a renowned author, and I liked it so much that after English that day i went out and bought his book, it is quite good and i would recommend reading it, it is called "Three Cups of Tea" and it is about a mans quest to promote peace by building schools. That night i went again to the MTC referral center to answer people's questions about the church.

Wednesday it was business as usual i went to class then i finished my day off with a visit to the temple.

Thursday was a good day, i had a date scheduled with this girl i like, so i cooked dinner for her, then we carved a pumpkin then there was a pumpkin i had carved earlier in the week that was starting to wilt so we chopped it up ninja style. After that we had chocolate dipped strawberries and then we went and told scary stories with our friends, then we planned to make a scary movie, it was all around a very fun date.

Friday i had another date with the girl, this was because she had brought a cheesecake that we were going to have and then didn't end up having it so we had it on Friday. That night there was a building party and we had a ping pong tournament, people were playing Halo, people weer also playing Super Smash Brothers and it was very fun I made it to the 3rd to last round of the Ping Pong tourney.

Saturday was fun also, we went and played rugby as a dorm building as we played football together the week before, this was a lot of fun and we played by the real rules because one of the guys here actually plays rugby. After rugby we played football with some rms and we got creamed, but it was fun anyways. That night there was a Halloween party for our stake and me and my roommates dressed up like a boy band, we were the Backseat Boyz and it was a great night, again just dancing the night away like we always do.

This last Monday was fun for Fhe we played murder in the dark and had a lot of fun.

Yesterday for devotional one of the elders from the presidency of the seventy came and talked to us and it was a very good devotional. Again on Tuesday i went to the MTC referral canter and answered questions.

On Wednesday i had a Book of Mormon test, and idk why they make these tests so hard, I mean i read every night but the questions they asked are things that you would never think about so its a bit difficult. again on Wednesday i went to the temple, Grandma i finished up the names that you sent me, so i will send them off here shortly i will be sure to send you an email when i do so that you will know when they are on the way. Grandma i actually do have a question for you which is: when things got hard for you like when you were way overloaded and you couldn't find time to get it all done, what did you do to get through it?

Well everyone this seems to be it for these last couple of weeks, I'm sorry that it took so long, but again i have been very busy. Still check out our lukeisms blog, lots of funny stuff, here is the link so till next time I'm off to go have more adventures. about repentance, and it was a very good lesson.
