Anyway, we were talking about future plans (mostly he was talking and I was agreeing with everything he said because I was playing chess on my phone--I'd turned it up to be as difficult as it could get), and we've decided to stay in Rexburg for a few more years after we graduate. Unless Anton finds a higher paying job elsewhere, which is not as likely since he already has an in here.
The good part of that is that I can take any classes I want even after I'm graduated because everything will be free for me. I'll be able to learn tons of things...sewing, cooking, horseback riding, piano lessons, art, finance, outdoor recreation--I could drop Junior off at the school's baby place for an hour, while I go mountaineering, come home and play with baby--awesome day. Also, we could take trips without having to worry about school.
Plus, when you work for the Church in one place, you can work for the church anywhere. We could even work for the church in Ukraine for a while if things work out. Then I could be teaching my kids English instead of Russian, which would be easier for me, obviously, since I don't speak Russian.
The down side of this decision...staying in Rexburg. There's an apartment complex that hosts parties quite often. They use a loud speaker and I can hear it like it's in my front yard. Why does it have to be so loud? I know where they are it's not that close to me. And there are those stupid trains. Also, Rexburg is the ugliest place I've ever lived. There's not a whole lot to do here either, except go to school. I could go on, and on. I could also probably find things I hate about any place I live. So, I've decided to try and get to like Rexburg. Use earplugs at night, maybe. Find fun things to do that I just don't know about. Overcome my snobbishness about Rexburg being ugly. Try making friends...
