WHOA what a weekend! So tonight, I went to the BYU vs University of Idaho football game with some friends and looking at our tickets all of us had terrible seats. Naturally, none of us were going to stand for that, so we walked into a random portal and hoped for the best. Lo and behold the front row was completely empty! So, we decided we would sit there! It was AWESOME! I high-fived Cosmo (our school mascot)four times and we got to see an AMAZING touchdown right up close! We think we may have gotten on ESPN, because the camera guy came like right in front of us! It was SO COOL! We won 42-7! Yay for the Cougs!
I'm sure all of you avid readers of my blog are DYING to know what a Harry Potter conversion means. Well, allow me to explain. On Monday night, my friends Anna, Kate, and Alyssa and I were facebook chatting because we just missed each other and we were too lazy to leave our rooms. Somewhere in the conversation I mentioned that I kind of liked the Twilight series. Bad mistake when you're talking to three major Harry Potter fans. So I log off of facebook and start working on my homework. All of a sudden, I hear a knock at my door. I open it and there's Alyssa and Kate holding the 7th Harry Potter book. Kate goes, "Sarah, we have an important message to share with you." Naturally we all started laughing uncontrollably in the middle of the hallway. I decided I would let them come in and that's what started it all. The HPMTC to be exact, me being the first investigator (we are SO at BYU...) So last night, we had the first "discussion." I was totally in the hot seat. We were in Kate's room and I was sitting in her desk chair while she, Alyssa, and Kaylee were sitting on the bed. I asked them my questions about Harry Potter and then when Anna got home we watched the first movie! We were going to have a post-movie discussion but it was 2 in the morning and we were tired. So, we postponed to lunch today. I asked my questions and then at dinner Anna explained why Twilight is so horrible and why Harry Potter has a much better message. It was inspiring. Although she refuses to agree that the music from Twilight is gorgeous. I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree. The viewing of The Chamber of Secrets will be in the near future. We are gonna watch every single movie. My friend Kate has even created pass along cards (see post below this one)!
So basically my point is, I am SO blessed to be here at BYU! I have made the most incredible friends and I am having the time of my life! I am learning so much in my classes and I feel like my testimony is being strengthened every day! I definitely miss Virginia, and not a day goes by when I don't think about my family and friends there, I just know that BYU is where I am supposed to be!
