Called To Serve For 2 Years!

I opened up my mission call last night! I’m going to the Kennewick Washington Mission! I report to the MTC Jan. 26, 2005. I will be serving for 2 years teaching in english for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints! After waiting long enough I’m excited to finally have the opportunity to get out! I’m thankful that all my family and friends could be there to support me when I opened my call! I am humbled to think that I will be a representative of Christ for two years as I teach his gospel to the people in Kennewick. 9 more weeks and I will be out there!

I Voted, First Time

Got out to the booth this morning on my way to work. Interesting to see how politics work and how the american society as a whole operates. Being a 19 year old going up to the booth, I was definately in the minority. Wearing my shirt from threadless.com and getting a few strange looks, I signed my name and punched the holes. My vote was equaled with anyone else in the country, including any senator or member of the house.

Can’t believe how much CBS news caught a hold of my attention tonight. Mainly from their amazing touch-screen program that displayed the spendings of each campaign on television ads in each region of every battleground state. The election night is being very well done as far as the functionality and design of the presentation. I’m quite impressed.

The race goes on… Bush is up… lets hope he stays up.
