So many daddies and so much love

Today my first class was methods of teaching seminary. Funny thing, I really detest waking up to the sound of an alarm. I always have and I fear I always will. Last night I actually prayed to wake up before my alarm went off this morning. Funny thing I remember waking up and being somewhat alarmed thinking I'd overslept my alarm for some reason. Nope just woke up about 5 minutes before it was to go off. The little tender mercies...I was exhausted, but made arrangements to teach early morning seminary so better just cowboy up and get to bed by 10:30 every night or I fret I would be worth much to them. I have found time after time, when I am overtired I have a hard time heeding the prompting of the HG. I took a cat nap, walked up to class-this is the only engineering class I have taken thus far I will miss.

Biomaterials, the professor is one of my favorite here at the U. He is an unsolicited LDS and is a confirmation to me we really are a peculiar people. He uses LDS lingo in his teaching, today it was humble, embark, diligence. He's not nerdy or anything, rather he is absolutely brilliant! He uses other lingo like the dark side, or movie references to try and keep us entertained. He is a really awesome teacher, the content is pretty hefty (I think for everyone, not just pseudo engineers like myself, plus a majority of the students are PhD's) and I am actually interested enough to want to retain it for future reference-who knows what...Either way his jokes are dry and you have to be listening carefully to get them. I never leave without having a chuckle with everyone in class looking at me like I've lost it. He looks and me and smirks, knowing that I gladly receive his intelligent humor. He is very witty and is constantly teaching us tidbits about his work, Pharmacology and Biomedical Engineering. For once I feel as though I am in the presence of greatness and that my tuition is worth more because I am informed more than reading or researching.

Then home I went to eat some soup and work on homework. Then Scott picked me up to go to the temple and I must admit spending the afternoon with him was such a delight, as always. He is so insightful and everything a gentleman should/could be. It help me to place perspective on things and truly assisted me in the remained of my day! To be a woman or not to be?? Is no longer a question. We are after all the crowning creation and need to act accordingly.
