Don't know how many of you read this and how many of you know who the judge council is that do read this blog. Here is a light background on what and who the judge council is: The Judge Council consists of 1 judge and 12 counselors, their sole purpose is to make both sides of light and darkness equal so that existence does not cease, they like to be thought of as one group so they go around dressed in dark cloaks that make them all look almost identical (sometimes the judge will go out in this cloak too), the system is set up so that when number 6 dies 7 takes his/her place and so on so forth and a new 12 is chosen, members are normally chosen for their superior ability in combat and ability to make just decisions, if a member of the judge council is killed from another warden (or person of balance) they take that judges number and place in less the judge sees fit for them not to be part of his/her council.

Alright I think that will do. Anyways the whole point of this is so that I could put up this picture I found of kind of how i imagined a judge council member looking like.

There it is, i always imagined shoulders wider with the hood lower on the top and a collar on the bottom so it made more sense why their face was hidden but oh well i thought it was pretty cool. Hope you enjoy jon's small note on his insanity ^_^!

A Dissapointing Weekend

I guess this weekend was doomed from the start. Basically was cursed when we had the time change. Although going to the temple with family was a good part of the weekend. With all of its wonderful sitting and reading the scriptures. The wonderful outing made me wake up 4 hours earlier then I am use to on Saturdays. Saturday itself was not that bad, it could of been better if I wasn't feeling so depressed all day and maybe would of actually gone out and done something with some friends. That was my basic Saturday.

Sunday is a whole different story! Already tired from waking up early on Saturday, and added on top of that the time change, I naturally woke up a little late. Then I had the stress of teaching a lesson in teacher's quorum, of course who else would have it. My lesson was on the restoration of the church. Most would think easy, but I actually wanted to teach something knew that somebody could learn from. So I went through the lesson and read through and tried to write stuff that stuck out to me. Really, I think, I got quite a bit of good information. I just never actually thought up a way to present my information to the actual teaching of the lesson itself was poor. Now that I have gotten trough a dissapointing lesson and of course you have the usual encouraging leaders telling you it was a good lesson out of sympathy; I get to look forward to practicing with Gloria Bowden because I was going to accompany her for her solo next Sunday. The song didn't seem to difficult when I played it but my downfall was not listening to it more online. When I heard her actually sing it and I tried to play it with the celloist, I failed. In the end I decided to tell them, after they asked of course, they should find a new accomapinists so they can actually do what they practiced. So over all it had been a dissapointing day. After that I go downstairs to try and distract myself by watching a stupid movie like My Big Greek Wedding. Near the end of the movie I dozed off, more like I feel into a deep deep deep deep sleep. This is when I caught up those 4 hours I missed the Saturday before, the one problem is now I was going to have a hard time falling asleep when I needed to. My weekend just seemed like one big dissapointment and I hope I have a better weekend this week. Oh well here's my self pitying post :3!

Jon is "JONLY"

Real quick, to explain the post title, me and a friend decided there is no word better to describe me then jonly.

I am officially jonly though, only Jon would have so much fun doing a book project. Well then again, it is a fun project. All I have to do is draw a picture for all the main characters with a poem and make it into a bound book. Who would have ever thought trying to draw what you think the people off a book would look like.

When logging onto facebook I realized I had a message, which doesn't happen very often, so of course I went ahead and opened it. The message was a question from a lady in our ward named Gloria Bowden. She was asking me whether I wanted to accompany her on a song with a cello player. At first was very concerned thinking, I have never played with another instrument before. In the end I told her I would do it! Best part yet, the date I will be playing for her is on my birthday, haha. Sadly my birthday is on a sunday this year, but it'll be fun to perform on my birthday. It is a great way to start out being 16! I'm starting to get welll known for my piano playing and I have a good feeling I'll be playing alot through high school. My goal should be that by the time I'm a senior I can play some amazing piece in an assembly. What a dream come true. As for my book it is coming along. I have actually written around 9 chapters, 7 chapters that are ordered the other 2 I'm not sure where i'm going to put.

As a side note; I have been seriously thinking about the stake challenge and wondering what commandment I need to work on a lot. I have come to the conclusion it is one of two. Either to keep all my thoughts pure or love thine enemy. Got to go!

Dissapointment

I was reading this book named Bliss, and I was getting really into it. In fact I got so excited that I stayed up late to finish reading it. The biggest reason for my infactuation of this book is I was mesmorized as to how the author was going to have it resolve. Low and behold the book ends as a drama. I normally love dramas because they normally have this great morale or lesson you learn from them but what the crap the book just kind of ended. I HATED IT! Now, of course, I have to write a book report on the thing. Gratefully the book report is just writing a poem and drawing a picture for all the main characters. The question is what determines whether a character is a main character or not. I'm thinking that I am going to do Bliss, the main main character, Sandy, Mitchell, Sarah Lynn, and maybe do Blisses other friends as just one character since they kind of come out as one voice. The only problem is I pretty much have to make my own visual portrait of what they look like. I plan to just look up picturse on deviant art and sketch off those, YAY FOR BEING A CHEATER!!!! The scary thing Is I have to actually try and color the pictures. Jon is terrible at coloring. His pictures normally look alright in tell he colors them. Then all the sudden BAM! Super ugly! I really want to do well on this assignment but I think it's going to be a challenge. I don't know what Durham is going to be thinking of me drawing them in a manga/anime style, but it's the only way I know how to draw things. I'll just have to make my poems extra good. Hmm lets see if right here and now I can come up with a decent poem for Bliss, the main character.

"I am pure of heart,
I always mean well,
But it always seems that I have to make these choices where I can't be perfect,
Is It worst to abandon a friend for better friends
Or stay with an old friend to try and help them,
My decision may turn out lethal."

Meh not much of a poem haha! Oh well ^_^;
