Seminary, 2009

I love my new Seminary class... not that I didn't love all the others... but fear grips the heart of all Seminary teachers as they approach the new year.  The questions just pop up in my mind.  Will they like me? Ans; of course not, it is Seminary, Stupid.  Will they listen?  Ans:  of course not, it is Seminary, Stupid.  Will they be on time?  Ans: of course not, it is Seminary, Stupid.  Will I make it through the year?  Ans: of course, you always do.   So with all those questions now answered I can tell you that this is going to be a great year.  I will just settle in with my customary schedule... teach Seminary, teach first grade, study, go to bed, teach Seminary... and so it goes. 

 I have decided I like to teach Seminary.  I have feared it for three years and this is the year I am going to enjoy it.  For some reason I am no longer fearful.  Oh my class this year would tell me with confidence that it is because of my wonderful students this year.  But I have to admit I have had wonderful students every year and some of them are either on or are going on missions... Anthony, Bruce, Sean, Hardwick.  Of course, none of them write to me, but then again I don't write to them.  One of them is married... Kara.  One has marriage plans... Becca.  Many are at college...

Anyway... here are this years Seniors... 2009.  They have already had their last "first day" of Seminary... (thankfully).

Janne and Jorge both go to Butte for College Connections.  We all envy them as they walk out the door 10 minutes early.

Jimmy... a nice, quiet boy.  He definately belonged in last years "quiet class".

The cutest boy in my class... Chue (who happens to be Thao's little bro)... doesn't like his picture taken. How ridiculous... he is very photogenic.

Dennis... one of the brothers

Charlie... the other brother... and also very photogenic.  Both work at Taco Bell.  One works at the one by the movie and the other works at the good one.  I can't remember who goes with which...

Cody and Katie...   more on Cody at a later date when I have more dirt on him...

.the 3 musketeers... and carpoolers... Katie, Kelsey, and Kelsey.  Their strength is CHATTING.  I wonder if one can major in that at college because they would do very well in that field.  The career choices would be teaching, president of the USA, greeter at the Walmart, sales of some sort, blog masters,  office managers, Dentists, lawyers and car salesmen.  Good Luck, ladies.

My home teacher, Brandon and Janne, again.  She is in College Connections and so she has the added pressure to look good every day because of all those older men she is around...

MaiKue... this is her first year at Seminary because she is a new member of the Church.  She is a friend of Kimberly, who is attending BYU, Idaho and rooming with Shannon (both of whom are former students of mine.)  MaiKue brings a light, an excitement and a wonderful spirit to Seminary every day.  If I had favorites, she would definately be nominated, but since I don't, oh well...

I apologize to my class for all the misspelled names.  I sometimes get better later on.  And sometimes I don't...
