The Singles' Ward wasn't that bad. It's very easy to feel lost when you've been in a family ward (read: congregation) for most of your life, and then suddenly you're alone, with no one that you know personally aside from vague mental fragments of their face, as if you're remembering them from a past life.
However, I did meet 3 people. Christian, a high councilman, or at least a member of the Bishopbric; Zack, who gave a talk and is a return missionary; and Francis. Two boys and a girl. Zack gave me a ride home and I think he might be one of the people that aren't necessarily going to become my good friend, but I can at least depend on him.
Now here comes the second part of my title, which may or may not scare people.
I'm innately curious, but passively so. When I'm interested in something, I google it and may spend several hours looking up that topic and things relating to it. However, other than that, I don't often look things up just to read about them. Today seems to be one of the days where I research and my curiosity is bubbling over.
I've read quite a bit (or at least skimmed) over Stephanie's blog. I knew her most/best during the Kendra days, and so that's probably why I'm never mentioned. I don't mind. It's just strange reading about someone that you--through your own fault--have drifted away from. It's like watching a half-forgotten movie's sequel. You know the characters and their personalities and how they were, and suddenly you're seeing how they are now, after time has passed. It's very interesting. And now I'm making them look out to be some kind of a case study. I mean, it's interesting to see what happens to people when time passes.
One of the people that comments often on Stephanie's blog is named Jay, and after a quick check of their blog, I followed. Or whatever it's called here. On tumblr and twitter it's called following. I'm not really familiar with whatever "blogger" lingo there may be here. *shrugs*
I will try and put a post limit here per day. I can talk a lot, about nearly anything, for hours. But for now I think I'll try and keep it under like 7 posts a day. That's still a lot, I know, but understand this:
I have thoughts constantly about quite a lot going through my head at any given time, except when I'm sleeping. I also have a lot of time on my hands. Ridiculous amounts of time. That will cease once I get a job, but only in part. When I'm home, you can bet that I'll still be thinking and writing and posting.
This is my private-and-yet-public journal. This is where I talk about people, places, and what is actually happening in my life.

Singles' Ward
There comes a time when young single men and women are tired of their home wards and want to get together with peers of their own age.
Either that or they're sick of their little brothers and sisters' screams, which is my case. When this happens, they can ask for their membership to be transferred from the "home" ward to the "Singles'" ward. I'm going to do it today. Or, I was going to.
But, er, Sacrament meeting just started and I think I feel sick. It's probably from my lack of sleep lately. Anyway, this will be my last post for today, unless something presses upon me to write here.
