Singles Ward!

I had a blast yesterday at the singles ward! I met a lot of new people to hang out with and they were so inviting! I have to say that it was a lot different than my home ward! I was so confused the whole time! haha instead of having classes that people put you in, they had about five classes and you just picked which one you wanted to go to!! crazy right??? Finally I was just like..ummm just put me where u want me! haha

Later on, we had a fireside with Bishop Hibbard!! He's such a wonderful guy! He was tellin us stories about afghanistan! He has been there for a while now but he should be at home for good this time! Even though his occupation out there was in the medical field, he had to go through a lot of the same training as the soldiers! He even had to keep a machine gun with him and go on missions with different soldiers! They told him whenever he left that his job was to change the hearts of the people out there and how they viewed americans! He worked mostly with the taliban!! ahhh! I couldnt even imagine helping out the enemy! Bish. Hibbard is one of the greatest men that I have ever met in my life! He's so willing to help others and he was this way even before he left! Of course, I cried during the whole thing! I guess it was because he has helped me so many times while I was growin up! He is the kind of person that walks into a room and even strangers want a chance to talk to him! He's a great guy! and I know that he will continue to touch the lives of others!

Enjoy quiet sacrament meetings while you can! You'll get so used to it, then get married, and all the crying babies in a family ward will seem much louder than you remember!

Ok so what the heck? I was totally expecting a long story about a cutie boy that you were planning on stalking! Instead I hear about Bishop Hibbard (he sounds awesome by the way!)
I'm glad you had fun! You can tell me all about the cute boys later, like the ones who came and sat next to you in sacrament meeting!HA!
