Senior Picture Story Time!

This morning I went to the temple. I was so happy. I called the post office. 



This is how I felt after:
My mission call was not at the post office.



I just wanted to run away Forrest Gump style.



I was really sad and I even went a little crazy trying to track it down.



I could not get it Thursday, because that meant I would have to wait until Saturday before my two Utah brothers could both be there. And that was not something I wanted to happen.



So I called the post office. Or five post offices.



My dad got involved and via text he informed me that I would not be able to get it. However, my brother rearranged his schedule so he could be down Thursday. No conflict. 


I was like:


 I'm not even nervous.

I don't care when I go.

 I don't care when I go.




There is a place out there that is waiting for the next and final Elder Duclos (of this generation). 
I'm just ready to go.



That's the story.

I don't like sleep, I guess.

I don't know what's up with me. I am tired, but I never take the time to sleep. I have been waiting for weeks for my mission call and it is finally, finally coming tomorrow. I can hardly stand it. Eighteen years, one month and twenty fours days of waiting and in just over twenty one and a half hours, I will be reminded of my predestined call to serve. It has been the longest last two days. Tomorrow is going to be insufferable. I need to sleep. Good'ay (I doubt Australia).

Impatient, I am

Talk like Yoda, I do. When, under stress, I am.








This is killing me.

The list

A few days ago I was struggling when it came to my mission call. After all, my best friend is going to freaking Barcelona. Not much compares to that in awesomeness. So I really didn't want to go to a few places. I prayed for help and was inspired to write the list. The list is a list of movies that would fit with any state or country where I could get called. That's 127 movies. And even though I haven't seen all of them, it really made me excited to go anywhere on my mission. Oh and I am not suggesting you use this, just know that I think it's pretty great (but that could be just me). So, without further ado, the list:

Not having your mission call

When all your friends do is like being the Jehovah's Witness kid on the day after Christmas break.
