Day 34: A Wickedly Great Day

Monday- May 28

Monday morning started with one last study session before our large exam.  None of us even really got ready.  We woke up, didn't bother getting ready, ate a speedy breakfast, and reviewed like crazy!  Our test had 10 matching items, five paragraph questions, and one giant essay.  It only took me about two hours and I feel good about it.  I don't think it was "A" work but I felt really prepared! 

The rest of the day was negligible.  Except for each night we had a mini devotional and I was in charge this time.  I shared my experience when Jared asked me what I had learned and then gave a quote by President Hinckley about what he learned when he was in England on his mission.  I encouraged everyone in the group to reflect upon what they've learned here and not just what they've done and bore my testimony of the importance of what I've learned.  

While the day wasn't that exciting, the night was very thrilling... I saw WICKED!

I had a wonderful experience last summer in New York when I saw Wicked with my mom, sister, and grandma.  It was one of the best days of my life.  I was just giddy with excitement and dressed in my Wicked shirt and new green skirt that I bought.  We had pretty great seats!  It's was hard to compare to seeing it on Broadway... I wasn't as impressed with the cast and I didn't cry but I did get chills and definitely had a smile on my face!  It was especially fun to see it with the people who had never seen it before.  I love the music and the moments in it like "Toss, toss." :)  I absolutely love that play!  It's one of my all time favorites.
