Oh how life is interesting

Today was my second day of work at the Creamery on Ninth (known affectionately as the CONE). It went well, it is just such a different working experience from Papa Murphy’s. I work at the Creamery stocking shelves from 5-10 in the morning. Today was tiring because I didn’t get into Provo until after midnight last night. It has been somewhat strange traveling back and forth from Syracuse to Provo to go to work…it almost feels like I have a regular commute to get to work. Thankfully once school starts again that commute will be about 30 seconds instead of an hour.

As far as news goes, today has been a good day. A story that I submitted to MLIA was published, which made me pretty excited, and, even more exciting, I started my mission papers today!! Only roughly 5 months until I leave! It is so weird to think about already getting ready for my mission. It used to seem so far away and now it is so near.

Well, that’s about it for today. School starts up again Monday, but I still have plenty of time to party between now and then. Oh yeah, as an interesting and important note, Jimmer Fredette, BYU’s starting point guard, scored a school record 49 points in the basketball win over Arizona last night. I knew he was a special player, but man, 49 points is pretty amazing! Go Cougs.

Well, so much for that...perhaps a new years resolution is in order.

So, my resolve to blog more regularly pretty much went down in smoke and flames. However, now that the first semester is behind me, it seems now is the time for new year and second semester resolutions. So, I hope that in the coming semester, I can update my blog on a fairly regular basis, such as once every one or two days. Now, this seems rather ambitious, mostly because it is rather ambitious. I just hope I can keep up with this new goal.
Now, as a separate note, this Christmas was rather enjoyable. It seems strange to think of it as my last Christmas before my mission. Where has the time gone? 2010 used to seem so far away and now it is right around the corner. Although the future is always uncertain, I can be fairly certain that 2010 will be a year filled with many new and wonderful adventures. Well, until next time. Go Cougs.
