Sorry

Okay so I am apologizing AGAIN!!! But I am sorry that I haven't written in a while. Today I thought that I would tell you about that waltz that I was so worried about. Well, we performed it this past Thursday and I actually think that I did pretty well! It was so pretty and REALLY fun! And it really helped that I had a good partner. Um, all the girls wore all black and a red flower in their hair and then the guys wore a black suit with no jacket and a red bow tie. It was so pretty. I will figure out if I can post a pic of me in my outfit. I didn't get any pics of the group or me and my partner but I will try. Well, we performed it at a youth conference and one good think that came out of the conference was that I learned to have a good attitude because if I hadn't had a good attitude about the waltz then I would not have just said that I think that it was fun. Another thing. I got to grow closer to and bond with 2 young men in my ward. Their names are Ben Summers and Major May. Like I used to be really uncomfortable around Ben and this past Sacrement Meeting it was fast sunday and we at YC we had to have testimony meeting with these groups that we were in and so Bishop was disappointed that he didn't get to hear all of our testimonies and so he gave the ENTIRE testimony meeting to the youth to bear their testimonies and we even went over and not everyone bore their testimony. 4 or 5 didn't but anyway afterwards I was crying so hard and Ben came up to me and gave me a hug. I thought that that was so nice of him. And I really grew closer to Major at the dances. Well, really both guys at the dances but their was no really obvious thing that showed me that I was closer to Major besides the fact that I felt less uncomfortable around him and asked him to dance(in a REALLY un"will you dance with me" way. More like a "this is a slow song and you are just standing here in a group of girls. lets dance." way) once and another time I taught him how to swing dance (for those of you that know what I am referring to when I say the :ladybug. I taught him that)And I think that he really appreciated it because after that dance, we were having a talk with our bishop as a ward and bishop said "did we learn anything?" and Major said "I learned how to swing dance... Rachel taught me." and then after that, we were walking back to our dorms(YC was at the University of Arkansas) and he yelled "thanks for teaching me Rachel!" So I think that he liked it. So sum all this up... Youth Conference was GREAT!!!!!
