Its been kinda crazy up here in Moscow. Everyone left for the summer and I have been packing my things to move to a different apartment. It kinda stinks that I have to pack ALL my stuff up just to move down the street, but the rent will be much cheaper and it will be nice to have a change of scenery.
I had a pretty sweet faith building experience the other day. The Sunday before finals week my bishop decided to get up and talk about keeping the Sabbath day holy and how homework should be done on other days of the week. Of course he picked an excellent day to bring up this topic. I had a final the next morning and hadnt yet begun to study for it. So I decided to just trust the bishop and trust the Lord and do what I was supposed to do. I spent Sunday doing Sunday-things and I didnt study. I woke up early the next morning and attempted to study, but I didnt feel prepared for the test at all. So I go to the test, fairly nervous, and no one was in the room. I was freaking out that I had gotten the wrong time or the wrong room and I was going to miss my final. I finally tracked down my teacher and it turns out I had been told the wrong day. My final wasnt until Wednesday. Had I been paying attention in class, I would have known this from the beginning, and it never would have been a issue of whether I would study on Sunday or not, but I was very glad that I had kept the Sabbath day holy and that I was given extra time to study for my final.
On other notes, I bought a sweet LCD Moniter that will also hook up to my desktop computer so I now just have to push a button on my remote to go from TV to computer. It's pretty sweet.
