Seminary is over!

I can't believe I almost forgot to mention that seminary is over. The last day of seminary was Friday May 30th. I didn't feel near as happy as I thought I would. It was a great experience for me. I really learned a lot about the Old Testament, since I've never read the Old Testament before now. It was fun getting to know the youth, well as much as you can get to know them at 6:30 in the morning. We have great youth in our ward, and I enjoyed teaching seminary. It was very frustrating at times and extremely challenging for me, but it was a good experience. I think the thing that was the most challenging for me was preparing lessons. I sure haven't missed having to prepare lessons this week. It just stressed me out having to prepare a lesson every day, and it got worse once I started working. I tried to stay ahead on my lessons, but it was challenging somedays. The last two weeks of teaching, I also got to work everyday, so I was getting up at 5:00 every morning, so I could shower and get ready before seminary. It was a little crazy, but nothing I couldn't handle for two weeks. Thank goodnes it didn't last longer than that. After having this experience, I see why I'm not a full-time teacher of any sort. I will leave the teaching up to Jon. I hate preparing lessons. I actually feel like I have my freedom now, because I don't have seminary nagging at me in the back of my mind. I just couldn't do much, until I knew my lessons were prepared, and that drove me crazy. Anyway, I am grateful for the opportunity to have taught seminary, but I am glad it is over. Now I worry what my next calling will be.
