Seminary is OVER!!! :D

Seminary is finally over!!! I'm so excited!! Our graduation is this Sunday... and here are some pictures of all the seniors! (in the FG building... there will be a couple of others from some other buildings graduating in the same ceremony...) My seminary teacher wanted to get pictures of us before we left so that she can document it along with other senior pictures of past classes. Plus she gave us all copies of the pics!
2 pictures are of us goofing off. :)

2 "formal" pictures.
Sadly there are 2 girls that aren't graduating with us (they aren't pictured, one stopped coming to seminary, the other got pregnant last year and can't come). It's really sad! We went through the majority of the school years with them, but they both made choices so they won't be graduating seminary. :(
I am so excited to be graduating finally! School's graduation is June 9th, so more pictures are to follow. :)

Swine Flu

Well there have been school closures all over Oregon. And not just K-12 either. Right now Western Oregon University is closed.

Now my school district announced today that it is closed Monday and Tuesday. If the kid who has Swine Flu has it for sure, 100%, it could be all week. I'm so excited that I have no school!!! :) It's kind of a bitter sweet feeling though. Whoever it is that got the flu, best of wishes!

It is kind of funny though that it's been so dramatized.... Way more people die of the actual regular flu a year.. here's a link to an article that made me laugh... I don't know maybe I have a sick sense of humor... but this is just another flu... and it's sad yes... but way over exaggerated!!

here's the link....
