car fire

On April 12, 2008 I got to burn a car. For fun. actually it was training, but it was awesome nonetheless. I got to smash some windows in and watched fire flash out and around me. My gear protects me so I didn't get burned. My Chief was yelling at me to back out though. I was watching and going "cool" while I should have been retreating. I am in one piece and alive still. It was really amazing to see it flash out at me. kinda scary, but really cool.

This is from left to right: Renee, Me, and Lena. Last day of school Jr. Year of high school. What great and amazing times we shared.

this past weekend

so my bestestest friend ever came to visit this past weekend. it was awesome! Lena and I caught up on old times and shared new times and flew kites and laughed all night long. It was really good to see her after such a long time. Lena will be moving soon and I am not sure (nor is she really yet) where she is moving to. It will be sad, but a good change for her. Conference was also quite good. I couldn't believe we had such a hard time finding a radio station that covered conference in Utah. We shared a good laugh about that one. We ended up finding it on an AM station and got to listen to all the sessions that were broadcast for everyone. Lena is currently working for the church as an editor for the "Friend." she said that she will be working on the conference talks for the next while here. It was really good to see her. A fun weekend that will always be remembered.
