There wasn't a whole lot that went on this week--which is good since I don't have a lot of time to write.
I registered for classes on Friday. These are, of course, subject to change, but so far I'm taking E Lang 326, English Semantics and Pragmatics, for my major, English Language; E Lang 350, Basic Editing Skills, for my minor, Editing; Geol 111, Physical Geology, for my other minor, Geology; Rel C 324, The Doctrine and Covenants, for religion credit; and Music 114, Beginning Piano Techniques 2, just for fun.
This week I overheard something one of my coworkers said. Our ensuing conversation went like this:
Me: "Did you say, 'Lorena's Mexican Restaurant'?"
Him: "Yes."
"Where do you live?"
"I live in Bountiful."
"Oh, I live in North Salt Lake."
"Did you go to Woods Cross?"
"Yes."
"When did you graduate?"
"'07."
"That's when I graduated!"
So I looked in my yearbook, and there he was, and we had no idea we were in the same graduating class!
Yesterday we saw Puss in Boots. It was pretty good, but I probably won't watch it again.
Today I got called in to meet with a member of the bishopric. They were going to extend a call to me to be an employment specialist. I was ready to take it, but then I made sure they know I'm only going to be in the ward for two more months. That made them change their minds (because my calling would require some training and/or meetings), so I'm off the hook.
Tonight we watched The Nightmare Before Christmas. Like always, I noticed stuff I hadn't before. There is just so much detail. The extra characters seem like real actors. They're not just standing in the background; they're actually doing stuff in the background. And did you know that in the "Making Christmas" sequence, there are numerous rats scurrying around on the ground wearing orange party hats? It's such a tiny detail, yet they took the time to do it!
