We Did It!

Institute Graduation
SUU Graduation (We have better pictures, they're just on another camera)

We did it! This past weekend we graduated from both institute and SUU. Friday night was the institute graduation. We gave the prayers for the event, so we're kind of a big deal. Just kidding! It was exciting that we were able to do that. Saturday was the most amazing day. We were absolutely exhausted because thursday night we had gone to the midnight showing of the new X-Men movie, and we hadn't quite caught up on our sleep yet. We woke up at 6:30 and eventually made it over to the school by 8:00. At nine, we were at the big convocation of the graduation. President Thomas S. Monson was the speaker. It was amazing to sit that close to the prophet and to listen to him and his powerful words. He is such a wise man! It was cool to listen to him talking about something that you don't often hear a prophet talk about. He was very motivational and it was definitely a highlight of my life. Later at our separate graduation, the main speaker was 104 years old. Yes that's right, 104 years old. It was the best graduation speach I have ever heard! He basically stood up, said when life gets you down, just laugh. And then he asked us to all practice laughing. And then he sat down. Perfect length! ;) It's nice to be done! It's weird to think that I'll never have to do my own homework ever again. I probably will, because I plan on going to get my masters, but for now, it's nice to not worry about school!
