First day of classes in my Second semester here at BYU. So far, it's been a success! Minus my freak-out moment this morning, waking up at 8:30am instead of 7am... But luckily I didn't really NEED to leave until 9:15. (Christmas break made my already-horrible-sleeping-schedule to an even-more-horrible-sleep-schedule--that must be fixed.) Somehow I still made it to Book of Mormon --early even!
Ok. And now, Book of Mormon- COOLEST building/classroom. Ever. Walking into the Karl G. Maeser Building is easily like traveling back in time and walking into a different world. I think I speak for the whole class when I say the little details of our classroom are super cool. A few of these things included:
1. A Balcony of seats, up above the main floor.
2. A beautifully painted portrait of Karl G. Maeser, that was hidden behind the projector screen when we first walked in.
3. A gorgeously carved, wooden pulpit, that looks stationary- but no, it's portable. And....
4. A Normal-looking, old-fashioned wall that has a Chalkboard, secretly hidden behind sliding doors.
Yes. Our classroom is most definitely the best.
After that, I went for a loverly run with my dear friend, Audrey Sue, on the Smith Fieldhouse track- good times, and good exercise. :)
Then after a simple lunch and relaxation time in the Wilk, I got a text from my dear student teacher, Kristy Kadish, from theatre last year- who happened to be on BYU campus, visiting from New York! Huspaz! She came, found me, and we had a most lovely reuniting talk. :)
Now… My ONE theatre class this semester, Lighting Design! Yes. I am most definitely going to enjoy this class. "Why?" You ask? 1- My teacher is my boss, who is pretty much awesome. 2- It's lighting. Let's get real. and 3- …If you know me well enough, you'll understand.
Anyhoo- That's my life. Simple, happy, and loving it. :) <-- if you couldn't tell from the smiley faces. :D
Now, the true question is how I'll be after classes tomorrow…

LOVE IT. And yes, the Maeser is SUCH a beautiful building. I've had a class in the balcony room you've described and thought it was just wonderful. I'm so glad you're liking your classes so far! That's always a good sign :)
