Best of EFY

In the past couple weeks we have had a lot of church things going on. First I will briefly talk about Best of EFY. This was on a Saturday from about 3:00 pm until 11:00 pm. My friend Samantha picked me up around 2:30-ish and we headed to the Everett Stake Center. The first thing we did was register and find our seats. We had to save 1 1/2 rows for all of the people in our group. After we were all seated the program started. We first heard from one speaker (I can't remember her name). After the speaker we ate dinner and then listened to anothe speaker (I can't remember his name). Listening to the speakers was a very HUGE testimony builder. Throughout the whole week leading up to this activity I was not doing well. The only person I would talk to was my friend Samantha. Isn't it amazing how sometimes the speakers can seem to be speaking directly to you? One of the speakers said that when he was out in the hall he said a quick prayer and he had a strong feeling that someone in this room really needed to hear was he was about to say. When he said this I started to get teary-eyed because I felt he was talking about me. The subjects of both talks related to the problems that I've been having all week and it was really nice to hear it from them. I almost didn't go because I wasn't feeling well but I'm really glad that I did.

When the talks were all done Samantha turned to me and said "Wow, I can't believe how much those talks related to you." After the talks were done there was a dance. It was okay but I was so tired by that point. Unfortunately I couldn't leave because Samantha was my ride and she wanted to stay. However, luckily she decided to go home early so she could watch a movie at her house. I was very greatful for that. I didn't really hang out with Samantha at the dance because she is very different when she is around her "boyfriends" and she's just not enjoyable to be around so I hung out with my friends Jacqueline, Eva, Courtney and Mariah. It was still really fun though! I had a good time but I'm glad that we came home early so I could sleep.
