Urban Poly Princess

I just finished listening to my recorded virtual class lecture for any hints before I write this last paper. He shortened the page length which is FABULOUS. I thought a lot about my visit with my friend last night. I wouldn't have been home to sit there for over 3 hours discussing nothing but the gospel if it wasn't for my homework. I'd rather be out of the house. Helene invited me to cosmic bowling last night but I wanted to do homework first. With my friend's visit that didn't happen. I love discussing the gospel BUT a looong session like that isn't happening again.
There are other parts of my life I'd like to consider, yes it can relate to the gospel BUT I don't C myself sitting at home discussing it for hours on a regular basis. I'd rather be interacting with people-actually living life. I think maybe she needs that because she's a convert and her family wasn't LDS. Maybe just normal conversation about gospel principles is what she's missing. It kind of reminded me of my mother who used to talk to my brother and I when we were watching TV and she'd give her fake "you know I used to think...(insert ANY behavior contrary to the gospel here) was fine...BUT later through the gospel/church/years I have learned...(insert something here that she wants to emphasize!!!) . It's like those annoying moral lessons Arco from He-man would share-VERY OBVIOUS-yes, the public service announcements. REALLY???!!! I wonder if anyone's done a study on how effective those were. I guess I should be grateful my mother tried to teach me although those moments were like shinning a huge spotlight and ringing a buzzer. TEACHING MOMENT!!! PAY ATTENTION NOW!!! LEARN SOMETHING NEW YOU HAVEN'T FROM THE LAST FIVE TIMES I POINTED THIS EXACT THING OUT TO YOU!!!
It's nice to hear testimony of how the Book of Mormon has helped someone grow. BUT it was a little tiring last night. I feel bad for feeling that way because my friend has good intentions. I was just a little sick of hearing about it last night. I'm trying to figure out why I felt that way. It was just too much when I wanted to finish my brainless time-waster DVD and then finish my homework.
