Alright, so I've done a pretty terrible job of writing since I've been home. In fact, I haven't written once. You'll forgive me; I've been busy drinking root beer and learning about the history of civilization... (don't laugh, I still have to finish my civ requirement... sad day...).
Well, to give you the salient points of the past two weeks. I made it home from Paris alright, as you gathered from my last posting, and then I drove out to Utah for graduation. (Seen above are pictures with Daniel Martoma, a guy I home taught, and with my mom, with my grandma, and my family with Cecil O.) Elder Bednar spoke at commencement, and he said that we probably wouldn't remember any of what he said... and it's been a few weeks, so you'll forgive me if I've forgotten what he said... j/k. He told us to learn to love learning, and to take that with us everywhere. It was good. 
I've also attended quite the spat of weddings, from Lindsay Lees to Jon Laudie (Jon and Carrie in front of the Timpanogus Temple, above) to Alex Pingree (and done my share of car decorating--see pix above). It's been a good time. Before Jon got married, we kidnapped him and took him to the mountain house for a party... we'll leave it at that.
I changed civ courses. I was originally signed up for Music 202 with two of my roommates, but after about 30 minutes of class the other day, it dawned on me that I really was not in the right class. The teacher was talking, and I honestly had no idea what he was talking about. I picked out a few words, including "violin", "Bach" and "Germany." Beyond that, i really don't know what was going on. I suspect he might have been speaking Greek and/or Latin over long periods of the class, but I'm not sure, seeing how I don't speak it... Well, that lasted, as I said, about 30 minutes before I took off. I did, however, get to press the "drop all classes" button on the AIM page, something I've always wanted to do. Some dreams do come true. I'm back in History 202, though, and things are going well there.
Lastly, 
I have had some free time to just kick it and enjoy doing some of my normal things... like cooking, reading, and jamming on the guitar. This is me in my captain planet apron... when I say "my" apron, I actually mean Rachel's apron... but you get the idea.La vie est belle!
