Day 20

Today was a great day.  I don't want to discriminate and just share one thing I'm grateful for today, but instead I want to share how I am grateful for everything that happened today (so far...it's only 12 haha).  The beginning of the week was so stressful and I am so happy to have such a successful day.  So I'll be sharing with you my day in a nutshell.

This morning I woke up at 5:40 and went swimming at the pool.  I try to go swimming everyday, but this week has been really hard because of midterms and papers, so today was the first day in the whole week that I got to swim.  It felt so good to just jump in the water and do something that I think is fun.  It was hard work, but I loved it!  After swimming I had time to read my scriptures (which basically set a good tone for my whole day).  After that I had even more time to clean up my desk area and plan my entire calendar for next month.  By that time it was about 9 am.  So, I decided to go to go and mail out thank you letters that I had written last night.  With even more extra time before my 10 o'clock class, I went to the bookstore and bought Les Miserables.  I heard that it's a really good book/musical/soontobemovie, so I want to read it. :)  Classes were great.  In Japanese literature we got back our midterms and I was excited to find out that I did well!  It is truly a miracle, with all the things that have happened this week, that I was able to get a good grade.

Everything is amazing :)

Gotta love swimming! haha
