First off there have been more mission calls. My friend Ty will be going to the Philippines and will be leaving June 5th, which is the week after graduation! My friend Travis will be going to Argentina and leaves July 3rd! CRAZY! Also a girl in my ward, Brooklyn Hammond, got called to Japan. I have no idea when she'll be leaving.
Second: Morp was a blast! I took Travis (yes the one going to Argentina). He was a ton of fun. Meghann and I decided not to do a day date, which was the best idea ever. Another fantastic idea we had was for dinner, we had crepes! Which was delicious, and we converted Travis. He had never had crepes or nutella! The dance was fun, all besides the boys who decided they wanted to get kicked out of the dance. They totally accomplished this along with getting the dance to end 10 minutes early. I know 10 minutes isn't that bad, but it was still a touch annoying. I think what was more annoying is what they were doing which was taking their shirts off. They got kicked out twice before their final getting kicked out. But it was annoying, it put a damper on the dance, and to add onto it, Meghann and I think we ran into a girl who was drunk. How that happened who knows, but she was sure acting like it. UGH and BLAH. After the dance was probably the best. We came back to my house and played Apples to Apples. :) We were all so tired that every little thing was funny. So all around the dance was a blast.
Third: I made a decision for school. I will be attending BYU-Idaho this fall. It's still not official, but I think that's where I'm going to end up going.
Forth: I did a solo a little less than a week ago and I got, drum roll please . . . I got a 1!!! AHHH! I was so happy. I walked out after performing that, and I was like "That did not go as well as I had hoped." but I guess the adjudicator thought differently. :) So, I now have the opportunity to be able to go the regions March 12th to perform again. Wish me luck! If I get a 1 I get to go to state and that's my goal.
"God is eagerly waiting for the chance to answer your prayers and fulfill your dreams, just as He always has. But He can't if you don't pray, and He can't if you don't dream. In short, He can't if you don't believe." Elder Jeffery R. Holland.

Even More?!!
As of today two more of my friends have gotten their mission calls! Can you believe that! Dallin Day and Benson Gunther both received them this morning after,what I think they did, running to the post office to see if they came. Dallin opened his first and fairly early this morning. He will be going to Hungry! Yup, that's right, and he's had close to 5 years of French. Haha and now he has to learn Hungarian. He will be leaving the same day as Chandler, July 10th. Benson opened his next and he's going to the Adradic South mission, is what it's called, I believe. It includes Albania, Kosovo, Macedonia, and Montenegro. Benson will be leaving the week before Dallin, July 3rd.
How crazy is that! I was not expecting either of the to go to places like that!
Well, I will be constantly up-dating about all these missions. People are handing them like crazy! I mean one of my friends should be getting his call in about a week! Bahhh, this is so crazy!
Like I've said before, I can not wait for my time to come, only a little over a year before I could actually have my own mission call! :D

Oh the Mission Calls!
I have to say a ton of people have gone on top of handing in their mission papers as soon as they can. I've had a ton of friends, and other people I know, who have gotten their mission call, and even more who have turned in their missions papers and are just waiting. It's fun to see where everyone is going and when they will be leaving. :)
But tonight I had the opportunity to go to a mission call opening. I've never been to one, so this was my first one. It was one of my best friends who opened it tonight; Chandler. :) He is going to . . . drum-roll please . . . South Carolina, Columbia mission!
Which was somewhere he wasn't even expecting. He really wanted to go out of state and somewhere foreign, specifically Ireland. But, he's still excited to be going, and, like what many people say, it's where he is suppose to go. God has plans for him, and obviously it includes that opportunity for Chandler to bless the lives of people in South Carolina the way he has blessed peoples lives here. :)
Here is a picture of the US, so if you look for South Carolina and find Columbia and voila that's where he's going to be serving. He'll be leaving July 10th of this year.
Well, I have a few other friends who will be receiving their calls soon, and I will let you know where they are going. :D Eck! This makes me excited. In about a year I'll be able to start filling my papers out and submitting them. Weird, I know.
