So. Halloween was awesome. Friday night some girls from my ward and I went out to Thai Ruby, it was delicious...after which I had an intramural volleyball game. We made a sweet comeback after losing our first game, losing a player (so playing 4 on 6!) and ended up winning (!!!!!) So far our record is 2 wins 1 loss in upper division intramurals. Next game: Thursday. I love volleyball.
THEN we (the girl I visit teach, Jessica, and her roommate) went to a Halloween party my mission friend was throwing. I was "Where's Waldo." My favorite part of the night was when we ventured to public place, I hid in the crowds and we took pictures of "Where's Waldo?" Hahaha...Good times.
Saturday I woke up early-ish, went to our ward's Elder's-Quorum-Makes-the-RS breakfast activity (my fav one so far). Yum. Then I studied on campus for 4 hours, took a Functional Anatomy Test, played volleyball for 2 hours on campus with some friends, then my friends David, Megan and Betsy and I decided to have a "chill" Halloween night of making pizza and watching "Elf". It was fun & relaxing, great combo.
Sunday morning was delightful. We had Stake Conference, and I learned a lot about hope as a "plan of action" instead of just a feeling and how it must be centered in Christ. Oddly enough, a lot of the talks were about breaking up and how dating experiences are for our good and "worth of the pain". Ha, I love BYU. After that, I went and had PB&J sandwhich picnic with David, Megan and Betsy (again). It was a beautiful Sunday afternoon...quite delightful if I do say so myself. After that, friend David and I went over to G&G Hatch's house to visit and then to the CES Fireside of President Uchtdorf. It was such a good fireside, I always end up feeling so empowered and loved after listening to him speak. He answered some of the many questions of our age. Solid.
So, life is good currently. Its been hard to focus this week. I think one of the hardest things for me to accept in life is waiting...not knowing the future, or what will happen, or what I should do, or what other people will do. Its almost agonizing at times. I just want to know. I guess thats the whole meaning of patience. And humility. And faith. And life. Blast! Does that mean I'm failing at all of those?............

Dude! you write on this way more than I thought. I'm totally going to have to frequent the "musings of Lindsey" part II more often! Holla'! BTW. . . you totally knocked off that where's waldo costume from me. And I knocked it off Catherine. So we are pretty much a product of our older siblings college years. You're lookin' real good btw.
