SOOO CLOSE

To being done! I only have a few more project left to finish and then Im done with my first semester being away from home! First semeseter at St.Johns and first semester living in NEW YORK CITY!!!

Last Sunday I got to go listen to Elder L. Tom Perry. He is such a sweet guy! It was really cool to listen to him! He told us that he and one other person started the Rego park ward. Which was the first ward ever in Queens! Its because of him that there is now a mormon population in queens! isnt that cool! My ward wouldnt exist without his work! He is so connected with the leaders of the church since he was little. Prophet Grant stayed at his house when he was little! Also His grandpa used to watch over Joseph F Smiths cows! He is a really cool guy!!

Today I had a game. My shoulders are killing me. Since i am a base now and im huge because i cant run. My shoulders and neck kill from holding brittany for so long! Now dont get me wrong brittany is a great flyer i just cant hold her up for that long. i hate cheer. Practice is so frustrating. Coach doesnt know what she is talking about and pushes us until we get injured. Since the beginning 13 people have been injured enough to where they had to actually sit out of more than one practice. I really dont feel like were going to nationals at all. Coach doesnt know what she's doing. And i hate going and getting injured every practice. There has not been one practice where I havent gotten hit in the head. Its horrible. I hate it.

So this will be my first thanksgiving with out being with family! Im really not that sad about it because i have so much work to do that its all good! im excited for some of my suitmates to get the heck out of here!! YAY!! i love it when my roomate gone!!

I cant wait to come home!!! except im having a hard time finding a place to take my dress to :( I dont know who to trust and i hate going somewhere where i cant understand them. oh well Im praying that i will find a place that can get it done in time! well see!
