Two points are worth it in basket ball...

So, I guess you could say I am in the thick of things and I seem to be having to fight for two points here and two points there, more than I would like.  You didn't turn this in, it's right here.  You didn't quote a prophet, isn't the Quorm of the twelve considered prophets?  It all seems nit picky and like I am 17...again.
I am not sure I have it in me to fight for two points so much.  Sigh....

fear and hatred collide

So funny story, or not.  I have had this fear and dislike all rolled into one spot---the Discussion Board!  One of my fears (let's face it I have a ton, this is just one of them) is writing. I haven't done it for a very long time.  Like over 25 years.  I have told kids at my work that a paragraph should have a beginning middle and an end but have I actually done it myself?  NO!  So on our Discussion Board for our Book of Mormon class we have to state a doctrine or a principle from the scriptures and then expound on it.  So Monday I was pounding out homework.  Like really pounding it out.  Four a solid 5 and 1/2 hours.  The last thing I did was post to the Discussion Board.  I wasn't sure if I had the style right because all the people in my class keep leading with a scripture and the instructor clearly states to reword it in your own words.  Even in an announcement he sent out this week he restated that.  I was hesitant.  I wanted to follow the classmates.  But I posted like the teacher asked.  The next day when I got back on one of my classmates responded to me and said, "your a good writer.  I like your style."  HA!  Now that was pretty darn funny.  Let's see what my teacher Brother Roberts thinks of it.
