can I please just say one more time that I love it here at BYU... it is one of the most amazing places on earth, and there really is nothing like it anywhere else on the planet. I really cant explain it, but I'll try.
Where else in the world can you go to a dance class where you are expected to dress modestly, where you start class off with a prayer, and where your teacher sees dance as a form of worship?
Where else in the world does a science textbook mention God, and where your professor talks about the connection between religion and science and how they really do go hand in hand?
Where else can you go to a writing class, and read examples of writing written by prophets and use your religious beliefs as valid reasoning in a persuasive essay
where else do hundreds of college kids decide that a fun night is to go sing hymns in a tunnel, and listen to where people are being sent on missions?
the list goes on and on but I'll just stop here. I don't really think my writing is doing my thoughts justice, but every day I am just so amazed by this place. and of course to someone not familiar with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, this all might sound a little weird. and it IS weird, college isn't like this most places, but I love it here and I know that this is where I am supposed to be.
