Well I was enjoying reading everyone's latest blogs and pangs of guilt struck me. I hadn't written anything for awhile and felt the need to contribute. First off I want to admit that I was laughing out loud as I read some of your blog posts. We really do have a family made of some witty people. Secondly I want to say, how has Dad escaped the blogging? I got talked into it, and I keep being reminding to blog. Mom also got talked into it. Why hasn't Dad been forced to start blogging. If there is anyone that we don't know what is going on in their life it is Dad.
These past few weeks my life has been filled with tests, tests, and more tests. It seems like I should be a master at taking these exams. The testing center is becoming my home away from home. I think I might keep a blanket and spare toothbrush there just in case. I recently had a test in Chemistry and a test in Histology. The Histology one didn't go so well. I studied a lot for it too, it was just a really difficult test. I did pretty well on the Chemistry one though. This weekend I have a test in my marriage prep class. I'm not sure what the test is going to ask us. Maybe it will say T or F: I plan on one day getting married.
In case you are all wondering I am still dating Berlin. I am excited for Lindsay's visit so I can hang out with her and also so she can meet Berlin. I know Mom might see this as her opportunity to get the low down. My roommates and I are planning a dance party for the Saturday after Halloween. It is going to be amazing. Mark and I have already put together a play list and it is awesome. Brandon if you are wondering, yes it is ALL black people music. I am black inside, you know.
I also ordered an awesome Halloween costume. I will be sure to include some pictures of me in my costume. I know the kids will get a kick out of it. I was thinking of getting a crazy couple costume with Berlin, but I don't think I am ready for that kind of commitment. I mean what can you do with that costume if it doesn't work out? And who gets the costumes? It isn't like you can split up the costumes, they have to stay together. Gosh, so much to think about.
Also the ward is awesome. I love the FHE group that I the Dad for. Probably the greatest FHE group known to man. We went to a corn maze last night. This maze happens to be in the shape of David Archuleta, the runner up of American Idol from Sandy Utah. It is a little freaky if you ask me. Another night we had a video scavenger hunt where we asked people to sing songs or do dances. It was a lot of fun. All in all I am having a blast, and still getting good grades [love ya Mom ;)].

School, Life, and More School
Just as a way of update things are going pretty well here at BYU. It is starting to get cold, and I don't think it is coincidence that I am finally starting to feel homesick. Social life is going well. I am in a really great ward. People are really nice and friendly and I have made lots of friends.
School is going well. I recently took my first exam for my Infection and Immunity class. I received a 93% on the exam. If you are interested the class is all about the immune system and pathogens. The first exam covered receptors (TLRs toll like receptors) and antigen presenting molecules (MHC class I and MHC class II). I have learned a lot about the immune system. I have stopped wondering mom was unlucky enough to get an autoimmune disease, now I wonder why the rest of us don't all have one. The immune system is amazingly complex I am amazed it doesn't freak out on us all the time.
I have two exams this weekend. One in my Tissue Biology course, and the other one in my Marriage Prep course. It would be nice if I can take both of the early on Friday so I don't have to worry about them over the weekend. I will have to let you know how I do on those exams if you are interested.
Oh and in case mom or someone hasn't told you, I have started dating a girl in my ward. Awkwardly enough she is my next door neighbor. Her name is Elizabeth, but she goes by her middle name, Berlin. I will let you know more about her later. By the way Heather already met her. I haven't had time to ask Heather what she thought of her though.
