this weekend was one to remember. i had a crazy friday and saturday, that included two hockey games, and a few dates. Then on Sunday i gave the first lesson of the semester in my gospel doctrine class, and spoke in church.

Lets start with the hockey games. At  byui, the ice rink is out doors. As a result the ice is subject to the weather. If the weather is uncooperative, then the ice is soft, brittle, and prone to cracking. Well, it was warm, and snowy and so the ice was soft and covered in snow. So the games were a bit slower than normal, but it put all the players at the same level; novice. So it was a lot of fun. The team that i play for is the Hawks, and i play left wing, on the first line. The other two players on my line are really good, so hopefully i will get to score every now and again. We had two games, one on friday at 4:30 pm, and the other at 7:00 AM on saturday. We won on friday, 1-0, and lost saturday 2-0. But we are optimistic about the rest of the season.

As for my dates, they were excellent too. I went out with a girl named Cassie Luthy, she is from Illinois, and is a junior. She is studying psychology, and wants to go to grad school, to be a counselor. We had a good time, and if you want to know more, you will have to call. after 9. cause its cheaper. hahaha

and sunday was great. the lesson was about the book of mormon. a little of its history, and a little about its preservation, and its importance to us today. My talk was about agency, and how we need to use our agency to make wise choices. the bishop wanted me to speak to the women about modesty, so i wove agency into that, and spoke. it was well received and i was thanked by the bishopric. 

well thats all for now, and i have math class soon, so i will write more later.
