Alright, so I hope that title got you intrigued... but there has definitely been a lot of things going on in my life since I last posted on here! To start off with, we'll go back to a time where I was more productive......... or not, as that's probably going to involve going back quite a while. Anyway, it's been a super crazy spot of time since I last posted on here, with my calendar dripping in red.
To start off with, the day after I posted on here - which would be Thursday the 21st - I begrudgingly attended an "Academic" banquet. It was pretty much only begrudgingly because of the fact that my academics weren't good enough (I only know a few people who actually did that well in school last semester... I heard it was something around a 3.9 gpa to get invited), but because of the fact that I'm in RHA and therefore was required to go. After I got there I had a pretty decent time, I sat with some pretty swell folks, had a reasonably pleasant dinner, and ended up getting two awards! I got a "Bronze Pin Award of Excellence", which was described as follows on the certificate (and at the banquet): "The bronze pin award is given to a limited number of individuals who have made a lasting impact on BYU's Residence Life. This pin is the highest honor awarded on the campus level of the National Association of College and University Residence Halls, Incorporated." So that was pretty sweet to get, in addition to my award/pin for being inducted as a member of the National Residence Hall Honorary.
So after that swell day, Friday was pretty exciting - I started my journey of watching the Lord of the Rings series for the first time, extended edition style :) Then Saturday was quite eventful, as I went through the temple on Saturday morning to take out my endowments - coolest thing ever. Then Saturday afternoon I got to play dodgeball with some guys in my building. Then Sunday I was able to teach Sunday School again, and I think it was my best class to date - you'd have to ask the folks in my class about that though. Ward choir was a blast, and I was able to go home teaching that night!
Monday wasn't all that eventful, pretty much only went to work... but then I was actually productive on Tuesday! Unusual right? Well yeah. I kinda sorta ended up on international television for a good portion of our three-four minute choir piece during the BYU devotional. If you wanna check it out visit this a here Link! You probably want to skip to around 9 minutes into it (9:15 if you want to be right when we start), as there's an excessive amount of pre-devotional junk on there. Other than that... Tuesday was just a regular day, with work and classes never ceasing.
Well... that's actually all I feel like writing for this post...
So...
'Til Next Time,
Jordan Nielson
