kevin and his secret double

well today was easter. it was also one of my good buddies' farewell. he is leaving to taipei taiwan on april 2nd. his talk was way good but i was sitting in between two of my friends and their girlfriends and it was kind of distracting. it caused me to reflect for a moment, about how i feel that i've changed quite a bit, and they're the same kids they always were. i don't know which is worse, but i do think i like that i was paying more attention to the meeting than to some girl.
talked to a lot of good friends today and it made me really happy. i love good friends. also found out that my roommate, kevin, has a secret double. that's how he's been able to study so much and all of those sorts of things. KEVIN WE KNOW EXACTLY WHAT IS GOING ON DON'T EVEN TRY AND HIDE IT ANYMORE. also today had a crazy nap and woke up groggy and confused and i just started laughing because it was funny to me and i loved it. and another thing happened today. my good buddy, ryan marsh, left for good. i'm gonna miss him and i know he's going to be an awesome missionary where ever he ends up.

o! the joy.

well today was SOOO good. didn't even have class because my professor experienced an allergic reaction to something and broke out into hives. went to lunch with both (!) of my parents. we were talking about missions and my mom started crying. the thing about crying mothers is that whenever there is one around i just feel like the most horrible person in the world, even though it's not my fault, and i just feel helpless. also today at work this guy i work with went crazy and started telling everyone to eff off, but he didn't say eff and ended up losing his job, and that was sort of sad because i'd always liked the guy. greg the window washer we used to call him. justin and i rode our longboards all around and went to the most gangsta' clothing store i've ever seen. went to dinner with my buddy, parker. we laughed some, talked about missions some and ate some. it made me happy. then parkers roommate, steve martin, stopped by and capped off an absolutely superb day.

so, what WHAT!?!??!?!?!

college kicks some serious A. my roommates are super sweet. and i don't feel like i have any investment because i've recently been called to serve in the canada, halifax mission, leaving on june 25th. so when people ask me whether or not i'm fully invested, i say heck no, i'm just going on a mission. anyway, this blog's gonna be real horrorshow, i was inspired by my roommates. and now i'm signing off.
peace
