February 14

Today is valentines day. This last week was the Idaho debate tournament and filled most of my time. But to be honest I rather enjoyed it. You see last square dance I was reacquainted with a family that I knew from cotillion (a manners and dance instruction course). And I developed a crush for the daughter and found the son to be a really cool guy. How to respond to this crush I'm still not sure. Because I know very little about this young woman and I know that surface attraction will fade over time and that a true relationship needs to develop in the deepest regions of the heart. Needless to say I need Gods guidance in this very uncertain situation. Anyways she was at this tournament and I was fortunate to have some time to talk with her in-between rounds. Although a few times I was very nervous. On Saturday I went to the valentines ball and enjoyed dancing the night away with all my closer friends. With the exception of my younger sister Amie who was at the awards ceremony collecting two 2nds a 3rd a 4th a 7th a 9th and a 10th. I was also glad because a package I ordered on Tuesday came which had a new red vest that I bought for the dance, it came at 4 pm just in time. Sunday was a great day of rest. it was also exciting because I established a twitter friendship with my said crush which leads me to believe that there is a mutual interest which gives me some peace knowing that I am not an awkward stalker. If there is no mutual interest I believe that contact should be terminated so not to creep out the other individual. Today was kinda disappointing I was going to buy my sisters and mother flowers but rather than being $30 for 3 dozen it would have cost me $120 for that amount. Needless to say I gave them a dozen gigs instead. Well, I'd like to start keeping a more consistent reflection of my life so to document Gods work in my life and the areas I need to change. So hopefully this fills in a few of the spaces and I can stay in top if this blogging thing. Goodnight word.
