Blessings

I have been blessed today. =) My work and my prayers and anyone else's prayers if they prayed for me, paid off. Out of the 37 multiple choice questions on the test, I only missed two. =D If that ain't a miracle, I don't know what is... =) I've been pretty happy about that all day. I even sung the blues about it during my Methods class. And everyone cheered. =)

This evening was the Ward Talent Show. I was running out of time, so Amanda helped me make the cookies, because she's a saint and an angel. And I ran through my song a few times while they were in the oven. It was "Perhaps Love," which I did for my audition last year, so I was a little rusty. But I got a ride to the talent show, made some new friends, talked to the missionaries, was comforted and empathized with by Sister Gudmundson, and performed in the Talent Show, and also had a great time watching everyone else. It was fun when I was up on stage actually. I was playing the piano while singing, so I didn't have to look at anyone. And I had a microphone near my mouth, and I just felt ...cool. I sounded okay! And it was fun! Part of me was thinking "I could get used to this." The adrenaline rush was nice. =) I don't know if I've ever enjoyed soloing that much, until today. =)

I started doing work today on the Vineyard website that the church made (I believe it's vineyard.lds.org). I like to feel helpful. =) I suggest it to anyone that is feeling a little self-centered or selfish, like me. =) It doesn't take up too much time. But as the quote on that website reads: By small and simple things are great things brought to pass.

Well, when one wakes up at five, one is usually very very sleepy when ten-thirty rolls around. So I wish you all a good night.
