Alright, I know that this is really late coming, but school has been keeping me pretty busy. Things have been going alright. School really has made me busy though, work is fine, but the focus of this blog is EFY! Well EFY was really awesome. I had an amazing time. My friend Aubrey and I went together to Rexburg, Idaho. We went on Monday morning and Mom drove us up. We stayed in Chapman Hall. We met our roomates and our group the first day, including our counslors. It was a lot of fun. It was a really spiritual experience as well. Lots of classes and church topics. We learned a lot. Dances, meeting new people, everything was here. Like I said, the first day we focused on meeting our group, trying to get to know new names, had FHE, it was a blast. The second day we went to a lot of classes, well actually just 4 that were each an hour long, we then went to a dance that night that was just casual. Nobody really knew anyone that night so it was really fun to see everyone how they really were, not trying to impress anyone. Well on Wednesday we had more classes, but during these Aubrey and I meet two guys names Britt and Nate, and they were really cool. 
(Nates on my right and Britts on my left.) Well the four of us became really good friends, that night we also had time to try out for the talent show, and our entire group did. We did this really funny dance to everytime we touch by cascada. (If anyone has access to facebook, the video's on our groups page of Glory of the Moon, and you can see the entire group and more pictures) well after that we went and had pizza night with just the girls and that was way fun. On Thursday morning we had a YM/YW activity where we were separated into our separate groups and had different lessons, and that was way fun. It was the formal day so we were in dresses the whole time. Well we had made the talent show, so after that we went to the talent show and did our little dance which turned our really funny. After that the four of us (Aubrey, Nate, Britt, and I) decided that we wanted to do something so we went to thir lounge to play fooseball (sp?) but we realized that the place to rent the balls wa
s closed, so we had to use the puck to the airhockey table and create a new game. The girls beat the guys, without a doubt, although all four of us did come out with bruises and cuts. It was worth it!! That night we had a testimony meeting and more devotionals. It was definitaly the best day at EFY. Then on Friday we had some more activities, but the main event was the service project. This year they decided to have groups of two make a hat that they could send to homeless kids, and kids that needed them, so as we were doing it Aubrey and I got in a race with Nate and Britt to see who could finish first, of coarse the girls won again, but not only did we win, but Nate and Britt managed to ruin their hat somehow so in the end, the four of us were the only ones left in the entire gym, not counting the counslors, and we had to finish their hat. It was way funny, but when their hat was finally finished after an extra 30 minutes, we realized that we had like 10 minutes to get ready for 
the final dance and banquet. We hurried and left and made it to the banquet just in time. After that we went back to our dorms, and left the next morning after lots of good-byes. We pretty much all keep in contact still though. We have a group on facebook called 'Glory of the Moon' because thats what our group was called. Look it up if you get a chance. Well that was my exciting experience of EFY!!!
