Swine Flu


Thats right swine flu right here in Provo Utah.  I guess you could call me an unconfirmed case of the swine flu.  I had a missionary come into my district with the flu and about a week later I came down with the symptoms.  I remain an unconfirmed case due to the fact that my insurance ran out the day before I got the flu, and I felt no need to go see a doctor.  Although, it would've been nice to find out for sure.  My room mates have been avoiding me to the best of their ability going so far as to carry around a spray bottle of alcohol and spraying down everything that I touch.  My room mate tried to wear a mask to sleep to avoid the germs, but found it too uncomfortable to sleep with.  The flu is since gone, and I guess you could say I survived the swine flu!  I now get the priviledge of teaching the quarantined missionaries at the MTC.  By me coming down with the swine flu I will get to bless the lives of many sick missionaries.  If you start to get a sore throat...watch out because swine flu may be taking hold.

The View from on Top


It's been a long time since writting a blog entry, but since the class that required it is over I really haven'y had much desire to write.  For some reason I just felt compelled to write.  Maybe its the fact that I'm sitting here in my Comms 101 class learning about the internet in relation to mass media.  Either way I guess its time to post a new entry.  June has arrived (my favorite month) maybe its because I have my Bday this month.  But before june began I had the oppurtunity to hike mount mahogany on Memorial day.  A long hike that took us 3 hours plus to get up to the top.  only an hour and 20 minutes after my little bro and former NFL player Chad Lewis.  A few scraped knees and a sore backside later we made it.  The view was something else, and I might even admit that it was worth the time time and effort for the sense of accomplishment.  A good start to what I hope to be a great summer!
