today on this fine sabbath, I had an excellent idea. Many times throughout my membership in the church, I have been counseled to keep a journal. For some strange reason, it has always been difficult, but today I had an epiphany. I have an ipodtouch, and I value the thing very much. Well, it has the ability to take notes, and I now am able to "write" in my "journal" which is really typing on my ipod. The reason that this was such a great idea to me is that now I have a way to document my thoughts, and my feelings on life, and various gospel subjects. I am happy because now I can use the entries as support when times are tough, and I also get to share them with others when I deem prudent. To me this seems like a great option. 

Other than this, my life is pretty much the same. I go to class everyday, workout everyday, and look for a job....every stinkin day. But, things should pick up soon.

As far as the dates are concerned, I am performing admirably. Since I have arrived at BYU-I I have been blessed with many opportunities to go on dates, but it has only been in the last few weeks that I have really spread my wings and flown. I have had a blast in these last few weeks, going on many dates, and meeting lots of new people. I am also keeping track of traits and values that I like. Personality is a huge deal for me, and I love talking and getting to know different women. I can remember when I was thinking about not coming to Idaho, and I am grateful that I listened to my folks and came back to school here. I have experienced many things, and I count myself lucky to be here. 

I guess you could call this a special shout out to my parents. They are exceptional and I am glad that they are mine.
