President Packer

Last night the Ogden LDS Institute had a once in a lifetime experience. President Boyd K Packer, President of the Quorum of the 12 Apostles, came to the Ogden Institute as the speaker of the YSA fireside! The choir I am in, the Choralaires, got to sing for him. We sang one of His favorite hymns, Come Unto Him, and we sang Come Thou Fount Of Every Blessing. It was really amazing, and like I said before, it was a once in a lifetime experience! His talk was amazing! And the best part was that he gave us an apostolic blessing! It really was amazing!

Just Some Random Info

So, there is just a few things that I thought I should write about. This post is going to be really random.

FIRST: I got 95% on my math test yesterday!!! I was really scared for this one because it was metric conversions and there was just a lot to remember. I have to know how many Mg are in a Gr, how many Ml are in a tsp, how many Lbs are in a Kg, how many Oz are in Ml, how to convert temperature from F to C and from C to F, and how to convert the medicine the pharmacy has "on hand" to the amount in the prescription given by the doctor! I only missed 1 problem!!!! Now I am on to the FINAL section in pharmacy math but it will be a piece of cake!! I should be done with this by November and I will start my actual pharmacy class in January!

Second: I got my FIRST EVER flu shot yesterday. I absolutely HATE needles. I was shaking so bad. And worst of all, I GOT SICK FROM IT!!! I am achy, I have a stomach ache AND a headache. I hope it's worth it!


Third: I love that KOZY 106.5 is already playing Christmas music!! I love Christmas music!! I love SINGING Christmas music in my car and I LOVE making my own variations and singing DUETS with the actual singer, in my car. One of my favorite duets is with Donny Osmond, singing Baby What Ya Gonna Be (I think alot of the songs in his Christmas CD are awful!). We sing excellent together! Some of my favorite Christmas CDs are Eclipse Christmas and Shedaisy Christmas. I LOVE IT!!

Fourth: I love reading. I have been going to the library alot lately. For instance, I went on Saturday and checked out 11 books. The people there (the workers and the customers) look at me like I am crazy, but I WILL actually read all those books in the 3 weeks they give me to read them. I have already finished 4 of the books I got on Saturday. I literally finish a book a day. I think I wouldn't be such a fast reader, except I check out books that are WAY under my actual reading level. But those are the books that I like. Those are the books that I would write, if I ever finished my English degree. I ALSO love the website that my cousin Nichole got me into. It is www.goodreads.com. I have over 200 books on there in my "to read" list and I add more every day.
