First Sunday Back

I MISS MY WARDDDDD!!!

I miss our ward choir that is full of young voices that don't grate against my eardrums (no offense anyone who is picking up on my negative brainwaves...). I miss being in relief society with a bunch of girls my age instead of women that just talk about their kids and baking. I miss looking around and seeing people that I know and who I want to talk to and who aren't awkward and constantly coming up to me and saying "You're Jenny's daughter? I taught her in Young Women's". Alright, you people have been around for a while.

I didn't go to a Single's ward today because, well, I don't know why, but I hadn't gotten everything figured out and it was just easier to go my grandparents' ward. But honestly, I'm completely convinced that I want to go to a single's ward now!

The only thing holding me back is this weird thing that I've never experienced before: I don't want to meet anyone. I don't want a social life.

Now for those of you who don't know, I'm extremely social and I love meeting new people. It's almost to the point where it's a physical need to become friends with new people. I walk around campus and have this urge to talk to everyone because they are all potential friends. So why is it, when I have this perfect opportunity to meet a bunch of new people, I don't want to! I just want to be a hermit. I want to go to work for eight hours a day and then come home and do nothing. Is that too much to ask for??

Apparently, it is. Today, a lady in my grandparents' ward sat next to me in relief society (I was there all alone because my gramma stayed at home, laid out in bed with back problems. I felt really bad for her, but I wish she had been there because it was rather awkward at first...). Anywho! This lady who sat next to me has a son that goes to the single's ward and she was telling me all about it and then as soon as I got home from church she called the house and asked for my cell phone number so her son could text me about activities coming up and FHE on Monday. My grandparents think she just wants to set me up with him... I'm really not interested, but I'm getting sucked into this Single's ward for one reason or another.

So, against my wishes, I'm going to be social, and I'm going to learn to like it. Honestly, it will probably make this summer twice as fun! I just need to get into it. I think I just don't want to let go of my old ward and I don't want to have to start over. But it's going to be four months and it's going to be a long four months if I have to spend it in a family ward. So to a single's ward I go! And who knows, it could be a blast :)
