So last week, I didn't write about this. But Ross and I had quite an exciting adventure! We had been at institute and that was over, so we were just walking around campus for a bit. Between the TSC and the ESLC there were these two manholes that were open. Of course, we had to go check it out. We looked down in one. Of course, I really wanted to climb down in it! How cool would it be to say that I've climbed into a manhole? I told Ross and he was like, "Ok! Let's do it!" Then I said, "What if we get caught?" And he said, "What are they gonna do? Yell at us?" Nobody at all was around, and Ross just got down and started climbing down the manhole! Holy cow! He's so brave! I was terrified. I was also thinking that there might be a monster down there or something. maybe I should watch less tv... Anyway, he yelled up to me when he was down that it was just a room. Nothing too exciting. But I still had to go down. I looked all around and still there was nobody. so I climbed down into the manhole. How awesome! I was so scared that someone was gonna come and totally chew us out! But we just hung out down there for a while and nothing happened. It was really hot down there. There were these huge pipes and stuff and that was pretty cool. Up at the top of my post is the picture I took on my phone of me looking back up the hole that I came down! It's pretty much awesome!

I'm really enjoying my institute class! It's really amazing. It's Book of Mormon 1. That one is from 1 Nephi to Alma 29. Woot! But the teacher is really great. Brother Blake is his name. He is really great at bringing the Spirit into the classroom so that the students' hearts are open to learn from the Spirit. It's really great. I love to learn! And learning from the Holy Ghost is so amazingly wonderful! I love it! Poor Ross wasn't feeling well in class this week. He basically just put his head on his desk and I rubbed his back. Poor guy. But he's feeling better now! Woot!
Last night Ross and I went bowling with his roommate, Sam. It was Sam's birthday. Sam's a pretty cool guy. He's funny. Anyway, all three of us really stink at bowling.

Well, I think that basically I'm just posting every Thursday. That's the trend that's been going on. Awesome! I guess I will write again next Thursday!
Climbing into manholes sounds like fun! But . . . do keep in mind that it can be dangerous. Not because of monsters! Something much more prosaic. Bad air. In a small space it's really easy to use up all the air and suffocate. Usually the places where that's a serious risk will have some kind of warning posted. Manhole workers have to use ventilation fan in those places.
