School and Work in Virginia

Well I have officially been at school for 2 full weeks now and at work for 3. I finally had a breather and had time to write an update. I am actually at Jared's house right now. Jared and I went to a RedSox game in Baltimore (for those of you that follow them you know how it went tonight, not pretty). But we had fun anyway.

Ok so back to school and work... So far I love my job! Never thought you would hear me say that huh? ;) I am busy enough to not be bored but slow enough to not be driven crazy. I love the work I do. I go around the hospital when someone calls and draw different patients blood for tests that need to be run. I feel like I actually am doing some good here.

School is going very well. I think I will be ok in my chemistry class and maybe my physics class (Ian I may be asking for some help with that class) It's my spanish and cell biology class that I am worried about. The school itself is really good. It's a great atmosphere to be in and the teachers are all incredible. I have my first tests this week so I guess we will see how those go. Hopefully will have a positive update next week once I get my scores.

Church is going well. Haven't started teaching my temple prep class yet. They still need to get a list of who needs to go to the class. So will hopefully start teaching it within the next couple of weeks. There was a co-instructer called last week so I guess we will taking turns teaching it. That should be good. I am also taking an institute class on how to be a better teacher of the scriptures. It is a fabulous class.

My personal life is good. Am making friends at the school and at church. Life is good in general. Better than it has been in a while. I am starting to really see why I came here to Virginia. It was definitely a great thing for me am so glad I made that decision. As always hope everything is going great for you all. And keep in touch.
