So I'm deciding that some of the things I do in my life really aren't worth my time...maybe not things. Maybe people. Boys. I'm kind of tempted to wear a shirt that says "I have enough friends. Talk to me if you want a date though." This of course is untrue- one can never have enough friends. But I am getting tired of boys who don't quite know which category I fit into. And who make me wait. And wait. And wait to figure out. This is the point where if I was my sister- I would tell her something like stop letting them waste your time. Hmmm....
But its ok- because I have some very good girl friends who are the best support system ever; who show me that while I crave male company- in excess, or in poor quality, it is very time wasting. "You can't live off of granola bars". College is a time of excess- some people spend too much time doing homework and never leave the library- some people do nothing but play video games and fail there classes. Some people try to live off of Ramen and have enough sodium for 4 life times. But the point is balance- since no one forces it on you in college you have to make your own, and at them moment.....epic fail.
So something I did today reminded me about one of the most amazing things about Marin. She is the BEST missionary- EVER! We are both very active members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints. But I have issues....MAAAAAJOR issues talking to people about it. Probably cause I have some super anti people in my life- and I worry about trying to sell people something they don't want. But Marin has no such issues- she has converted like 3/4 of her friends. When I didn't have LDS friends in MD- I cursed the fates and hung out with people who didn't have my same beliefs. Marin just decided she wanted her friends to hang out with her at church- because she loves her friends and wants to show them God loves them too. Missionaries came and gave us a peptalk yesterday- the main thing I took away was it is not so bad spreading gospel- because you are just telling people they are loved- and gave away two tickets for our institute of religion concert on sunday! Woot. Marin should be proud :)
