"It is not the ctitic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

~Theodore Roosevelt

Day one of my finals

~America is a land of taxation that was founded to avoid taxation.
~Laurence J. Peter

April showers bring May flowers. April showers bring May flowers. Right? I do love rain but the warm weather has been so nice!

One final down three to go.

I went home for reading days and the first day of finals... Wednesday night through Sunday night. It was so hard to come back to Provo. But at least I'll be headed home again in 48 hours! Can't wait.

The problem with Finals Weeks is that I feel like I should always be studying. I feel so guilty if I'm not. This morning I slept in, went to move my car and get my backpack, studied, showered, studied, watched a show, studied, paid my credit card bill, wrote a missionary, watched a TV episode, and headed to the WILK to take my D&C final.

It wasn't too bad really. I have a hard time with some of the people and places. I'm fine with events and doctrine and all that. Oh, and when it just asks what a certain section is about... not good at that. I got a B though! Granted, it was my easiest final... so I'm a little worried about the rest. I was looking at my GPA from SLCC and BYU and my estimated GPA for this semester... I'm getting worse and worse :/
