Well, well, well. I've spent only two weeks in Moscow and I feel like I've been here FOREVER. Could we please speed up the pace a bit? I have been through one week of law school. ONE WEEK. There are a lot of students celebrating this fact...but I just wonder why the one week took so long and ask myself why we're celebrating so prematurely. Big whoop people...we've got like 15 ish weeks more til Christmas break. Then maybe I'll celebrate...if I'm still alive to celebrate after finals.
We had about 5 people take off during orientation week, and 1 more this week. Droppin like flies! haha. So I guess it's a good thing that I've only had one snippit of time that I considered packin it up, sprinting out of class, and hoppin in the car to head right on home...don't worry, I stayed in class. Instead of leaving, I just sent up some extra prayers to not get called on for an answer. I guess I sent up plenty of prayer...cuz I didn't get called on once ALL week. Not even when I had my hand raised to answer a question voluntarily...teachers would look straight at me and choose a different raised hand. How rude. Once I even had a super genious comment to share that I considered not sharing...then raised my hand...didn't get called on...at the end of class the professor made the same comment (as his conclusion of the discussion) I would've shared. Not fair. So maybe I should refine my prayers and be more specific. haha
School is pretty much my life right now since I haven't met a whole lot of BFFs yet. I absolutely love my roommates and consider myself very lucky to have ended up with them. I laugh every day about something that goes on at home. It's a great time...and really nice to get away from the law school and the people in it.
I was called today to be a Relief Society teacher. In my life, I have only served in maybe one or two callings outside of the Relief Society. I guess it's just my life's calling. Sheesh. But I don't mind teaching RS. I actually quite enjoy it cuz I get to do the lessons my way.
Otherwise, I'm just truckin along. Still feeling a little out of place...but getting used to things. I just keep reminding myself I've only been here two weeks. Lots of school, stress, studying, and hopefully FUN ahead of me.
