Something making me happy:
Getting plenty of sleep. :D

Somewhere I want to be:
The Celestial Kingdom

Something I would miss if the Earth were destroyed:
My Priesthood teachers.

Some thoughts:
You know those days when you just can't pay attention to the talks in sacrament?  When the presenters are just boring?  Well today was one of those days.  So I kind of...brought along a book. >.>  Apparently the organ player (also my math teacher from last year) saw me and slipped a note on top of my book as she went up for the intermediate hymn.  You can guarantee that the rest of church I was on my best behavior. ;)
