Wow what a day! I've just returned from a Youth Conference that lasted all day. I've been gone since 8:30 this morning and only just got in [That's about my average school day in the Cross Country season which reminds me I need to get back in shape].
Anyway I woke up at 7:30 and read TinTin for half an hour then I got dressed and went to the French Hotel for a good hot chocolate and morning snack.Soon after I walked up to church where I got a ride to the ISC for the conference.
So I arrived to find there was a huge amount of cans donated for the Food Bank we [The Ward] donated some as well (We[ as a Group] ended up being the largest donors of canned goods in one day it ended up on the 6 'o clock news) and after the quick donation I registered and the conference began with a good talk about courage and the guy was making references to David and Goliath and Gideon and the 135,000 enemies and so on.
After that I went to a workshop about balancing life.Pretty good workshop but I was mostly in it for the unicycle though he was quite funny at times. I also met a pretty nice young lady who I'll call Ginger. [I ended up hangin' out with her all day,turns out she's from Alameda and works Cross Country with Encinal which is the one of the many schools I have to race against in the fall].After the workshop was a nice little performance from a Utah-based accapella group called Noteworthy, smashing ol' themes they were I couldn't get enough of them,too bad I was sittin' next to really excited girls.Then came disgusting lunch but I got to talk to Emmza,KB,and Kandy [Candace] so it was all fine.
After lunch was 2 more good workshops.The 2nd one was about how culture affects our thinking.This guy was UC professor who goes to my church and he made reference to Little Mermaid. The whole lesson kinda of creeped me out but it was good I was sitting next Ginger again.The 3rd one i didn't pay too much atention to but when I did I liked every bit off it.
After that was testimony bearing in which lots of youth went up and bore testimonies,and now I wish I did to.Then came the most delicious dinner you could get at a Youth Conference but then Asm just left I don't know why I know she couldn't eat dinner but that really doesn't seem reason enough.After that was a closing talk by an astronaut [1 out of the LDS guys to go in space actually] I liked his talk most. I sat once again next to Ginger
After that was the dance which I had the time of my life with I didn't even go to the games for once. I danced all by my self and ocassionally went to the side for food.
Once I got tired I got a ride back and now it's been 40 minutes since I typed all this up and since I returned. That ends this

- I am so weird,so psychotic you'd think I was a hermit.Maybe I am,maybe I'm not but I'll tell you what I am certainly not a retard.I am a picky man with everything,books,food, and even video games. I like to freak my enemies out by making them think I'm out to kill them. TV and me don't mix if it wasn't for Simpsons,Family Guy, NCIS and the fact that my video game system needs it I'd throw that thing out. By the time you finish reading this I'll probably be cruising on my Trek bike. Might I add I'm a dinosaur. I barely know how to post this blog profile let alone program a computer. Books rock if they are good few fit my standards(Lemony Snicket,Seekers and Warriorcats fit a few). I also made up my own language.Currently working on a fun novel,Icelandic language and culture and getting muscles.I like all temperatures so long as it's below 120 F and above-20 F.My kinda afternoon is a hot afternoon sleeping in a hammock taking a siesta with lemonade.My evening is cold with a book,hot choclate in a rocking chair near a fire.I'll admit to being lifeless....for now.Say that to my face and you'll be literally lifeless heh heh heh
Video Game Currently Played

Oh man, that takes me back to the old youth conference days. Uf. I'm glad you had fun though--those things can either be really awesome or insanely torturous.
