Life in the SWKT (the Spencer W Kimball Tower)

I'm sitting here in the Neuroscience Center, where I frequently meet up to Suzanne and Kyna (who actually work here), waiting for Sue to comeback from weighing the mice for a different lab where she is doing research for graduation. I have my geography classes on the sixth and second floors; I work on the computers in the lab in the basement, which also houses my advising center which I visit frequently now. Not only that come Sunday I get to have church in this building as well. It is weird to try and feel the spirit in the same place that you are learning about the Brazilian rainforest and lanscape metrics in. So to change it up a bit I come and visit my good friends on the tenth floor. It's funny the different people that I see when I pass my days in the tower. Last semester I used to run into Daniela and Leandrew Tirrell all the time because they were always in the nursing department.

Good, Better, Best

I've been thinking alot about how good my life is. I watch as every day is better that the last, and right when I think I've reached the pinnacle, and had the best day ever, the Lord comes along and shows me that the best is still yet to come. I don't know how he does it. He is just really good at his job. I've been telling people that the Lord is in the business of happifying his people and I am learning more each day just how true that is. I have also realized that I don't know enough words to describe just how awesome I feel. Fabulous and wonderful are just getting overused, so here are some words that I have decided to try and incorporate into my vocabulary:
Fantastic, Inconceivable (for all you Princess Bride fans out there), incredible, marvelous, phemominal, remarkable, spectacular, stupenous, teriffic, grand, sensational, and splendid.
I may need to carry around a little note card with them on it so that I can rememeber my options. I wonder if smiling is as contagious as yawning? I hope so because I have a rampant case of the grins. It's a good thing that I spend time around people who are as happy as I am. It makes life just that much nicer. The Lord loves me. There is no other way to explain it. I love my life.
