Food Restrictions

In my family if you see food in the cupboard or on the table it means that you can eat it. Whoever gets to the good stuff first, gets the good stuff, and that tends to be me. I guess that my family started to get sick of it. My brother and sister would always complain about how a box of cereal was gone each day and how a new box of oreos would be gone within an hour. Now my parents are starting to label some food items not for Garth. It makes me angry! I mean I'm a growing boy so I need to be eating a lot, at least a lot of junk food. What the? It just got really bright outside and all day it has been rainy and cold so far. General Conference starts in five minutes maybe that's why.

Sleep or General Conference?

Every year when general conference comes around I get excited in someways but disappointed in others. I enjoy the fact that I don't have to worry about getting dressed for church, other than priesthood meeting, but I don't like that they are spaced out perfectly so that you can't hang out with your friends at all. Usually during general conference I bring all my bedding and lay down on my couch, falling asleep halfway through. I know that it is wrong but general conference just makes me so tired. This year I was assigned by my seminary teacher to take notes on conference so I kind of had to stay awake. Well I did, mostly. For the last half an hour of the first session of conference my brain went dead and I can't even remember what happened. I am glad though that I got that extra push from seminary to stay awake because I think that this year I have learned the most I have ever learned from conference. The only thing that I am depressed about is that I am going to the conference center for the second sunday session. That totally defeats the point of staying in my pajamas the whole day. I guess I still could but I don't think they would let someone into the conference center if they were dressed up in pokemon (not really) covered clothing. Also I don't want to worry about the hassle of getting out of the parking lot and then out of Salt Lake City. I just think in the long run it's better to just stay home as a family. At least that is what I am trying to convince my mom. Who knows maybe we will cancel at the last second. If we do I'll be sure to blog about it.
