Deep Roots are Not Reached by the Frost

ALRIGHT! So the way Heritage Halls (where I live) does trick or treating is they invite the kids from the married housing to trick or treat through the halls. That means we get to give candy to little kids! I'm sitting in my apartment right now with two of my roommates, waiting for trick-or-treaters. Here are two little funny experiences: A family of pumpkins comes by, the wife being pregnant. "yeah, it was the only way I could get my stomach into the mix. We're a bunch of pumpkins in a pumpkin patch!" (mom) "And we've definitely been watered." (dad) I'm holding out the bowl of candy to a little baby who is being held by his dad. "pick one" he says as I hold out the bowl. The baby's hand hovers over the bowl "Haha, don't be so picky!" the dad says. The baby then grabs a dum-dum and promptly sticks it into his mouth. Wrapper and all.....while holding a sucker and drool in the other hand. That's it for the trick ...

After eating a box of cheerios and pulling the bag out.... Chelsea: WHOA! *gasp!!* There's a prize in here!!

"There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle." - Albert Einstein Think of today as Saturday. Today the relief society leaders have planned a service project. We go to an elderly lady's home and help her clean it up for two hours, getting lots and lots done!! Once we finish I feel refreshed. It was a change in scenery and activity. When we're getting reading to leave, I stick my hand in my pocket to take my keys out, but they aren't there!! I check all of my pockets but they are nowhere to be found. I had left my keys in the car once before and thought that I was very capable of doing it again so my roommates and I (I had given them all rides to the house) go out into the rain to look through the windows of the car to see if we can spot the keys. Look!! There they are!...............in the ignition. *groan* I feel pretty ridiculous and flutter-brained. I had said a prayer whe...

These quotes are very Dr. Stokes heavy. He's the funniest person around so....it's understandable. Dr. Stokes: This computer needs to be rebuked. I had misheard him. He actually said, "This computer needs to be rebooted." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Student: So if the moon slowed down it would crash into the Earth? D r. Stokes: Yes. It would crash into us. *pause* Dr. Stokes: The moon.... is actually slowing down. the class is dead silent Dr. Stokes: Not in your life time! the class erupts into laughter ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dr. Stokes does the "twist" Dr. Stokes: Angular momentum is conserved! So what is going the other way so that angular momentum can be conserved? nobody answers while he is twisting in front of the class Dr. Stokes: The earth! The earth is dancing with me! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dr. Stokes: So on your date.....break off the top of the spoon in the restaurant ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~...

So.....I had the chance to retake the Calculus test I didn't do so hot on. Before I tell you the out come I must inform you that there is this rule that says if you retake a Calculus test the highest score you can get is 70%. Anything below 70% stays at that score, but anything above 70% goes down to a 70%. So, I'm taking the test with a nervous mindset, but I studied a little bit before hand and I was making sure to have an answer that made some kind of sense before filling in a bubble. If I do the problem and don't get an answer that was a choice (this test was all multiple choice as opposed to 1/2 multiple choice, 1/2 free response on the original test) I then work backward with all the given answers. One of the problems wasn't working out forward or backward so I chose the answer that looked the most similar to an answer I got. ANYWAY! After all this doing forward and backward then redoing and undoing I turned in the 20 question multiple choice retake of the ...

Today after Physics, which ended at 10:30, I went to the library to study for my interior design test I have today. During Physics my stomach had started to hurt a little, but it wasn't any ordinary pain. It was the same pain I'd had only two times before; once at Julia's house and once during a random day at school. I recognized the starting pain at immediately tried to position myself so it wouldn't worse quickly. I was able to take notes and somewhat understand what was going on in Physics. I couldn't afford to not study so I went to the library knowing it would probably get worse. It was a little bit of a walk to the library and that made me feel a bit better, but once I got to the library and had been sitting down for a long time it became unbearable. I put my head on the table, which made it feel a teeny bit better. I then decided I needed to ask Heavenly Father to get me through the day because at this point there was no way that was going to happen wi...
