My Sister is a Spoon

I know the title of this blog seems kind of odd but I can explain. I called my sister the other day and we were talking about her upcoming musical Beauty and the Beast. She told me that she was going to be a spoon in the play. I told her congratulations on her role and hoped her the best in her upcoming production. After we talked for a little bit she said she wanted me to write a blog about her. So that is why I am writing this to say my sister is a spoon. In other news I turned in my mission papers last Sunday. I am so excited. I should get my call in about six days, so if you read this feel free to ask me Thursday at class.

Man Night

For all of you that actually celebrate valentines day I hope you had a great time with your sweet heart. As for me, one who does not really do anything on valentines day, I had a pretty good time too. My friends and I decided that we needed a Man's Night to counteract all the pretty hearts and cute couples. We went out and bought four hot and ready pizzas, four two liters of pop, two bags of chips, and three and a half pounds of candy. Pretty much the junkiest food we could find on the planet. After we had our heart attack in a meal we went back to the apartment next to mine for some manly activities. Now what do you do at a man night? Watch action movies and play video games of course. So we watched the fight scenes of matrix 1, the enter matrix revolution, played halo, and watched the entire matrix reloaded. It was pretty sweet, and after eating pizza, candy, pop, and chips I felt my man night was complete. So to all of you that went on your dates and dressed up all cute you really missed out on what I know you really wanted to do, Man Night.

Mission Fever

I am really excited to go on a mission. I should be finishing my papers pretty soon and can expect to get my call in a little over a month. I live in the freshman dorms at Heritage Halls where there seems to be a mission fever going around being that a bunch of pre-mi's live together in one building. On Friday night I must of spent a total of 2 hours with friends just looking at a world map and thinking of all the different places that I could go. It was a colossal waste of time, but I really enjoyed envisioning myself experiencing new cultures and foods in different places of the world. I drew a circle around the pacific islands and some of Asia as a possible destination point. My dad went to Japan and my brother went to South Korea so I figure I need to follow the trend and go someplace in Asia. They tell me stories of the exotic foods that they partook of, such as my brother eating dog, and I long to have my own experiences trying the cuisine of foreign countries.

Oh the Joys of Anatomy

Like I have stated before I am an Athletic Training major. For my major I was required to take anatomy which I was really excited to do because I have always had a great interest in the organ systems in the human body. One of the great things at BYU's anatomy class is that we get to actually look at cadavers. Some may seem this as kind of gross but I say HEY what's a better way to learn than looking at the actual structures. The only down sight of this is my new outlook on the foods I eat, especially meat. When the gluteus maximus on a human cadaver looks something like the roast I ate at my grandmothers a few weeks ago it sort of makes me think of what I am really eating. Now I am not saying that I dislike meat and I am definitely not even close to going to vegetarian, I'm just saying that when you take anatomy at BYU, you'll never look at a roast the same again.
