Called to Serve

Man I'm really keeping up with these updates lately.

Yes, I've been called to serve...as institute class president. Sorry no mission calls here. BUT! I do plan on going sometime in the future. As said before, I have no idea when that's gonna be.
Anyway yeah I went to class last Wednesday and right before class my instructor Sister Cox asked if she could speak with me and the only boy in class privately. I knew almost immediately what she was going to ask and I'm happy to say that I was actually really excited to hear my prediction come true. My only thing was when she informed us of the training meeting Friday (today) at 7:00 am.

7 am.

I knew I worked thursday night and closed so getting up would be a huge pain. What I did to accomadate the situation was taking every free opportunity I got on Thursday and slept. There was two advantages to that.

1. I was able to get up and get to it.

2. I did so well on time that I actually curled my hair.

To every advantage, there's a disadvantage (usually). That being said my naps took away from my potential study time. Usually that wouldn't be a problem, however I had to exams. One in psychology and the other in math. I did study for my psych exam but that doesn't mean I did well on it. :/ I guess next time I'll study more consistantly. As for my math exam, I think I did decently-although I probably could have studied more.

So I learned a lesson.

This calling is something I'm really looking forward to. I feel like it's important and that it's something similar to a missonary experience. What I'm supposed to do along with my co-president is to invite people we know to institute, get people to come that are already enrolled, and engage in participation of the entire class. What really touched me was when we were seperated into our classes by teacher. She told us that she chose us by way of praying and just observing what we had already done in class. So I guess I was doing something right after all. :) I know I've prayed a few times and shared what I thought was an inspiring message, so I guess it did pay off.

I cannot tell you how happy institute/singles ward/gospel in general has helped me to feel. I know for a surety that we are truely blessed by our common Father when we do what he wants us to. I'm so thankful to be a member of the true church and to have the blessings that come with. I know I probably wouldn't be as far as I am in my education without His help. I feel like I've come a long way in the sense of self improvement.

That's pretty much it for now! My birthday is one month from today! One month and I'll finally be 20! Out of my teens! Wow I'm getting old.
