EFY was awesome this year! I'm still not sure I loved it QUITE as much as last years, but it was still amazing! efy at byu-i was VERY different from the one down in provo. in some ways it was better, in others, it definitely wasn't. I liked the fact that we didn't have to walk as much because the campus in Rexburg is much smaller, but I didn't like the fact that there were WAY less people, and the classes were much smaller. It was fun to go with my best friend, Morgan, and make lots of new friends.
In our company, there were two groups of girls, and one group of guys. So, I didn't get to know the other girls group very well, but it was still fun. I had lots of fun with my roomates, and we'd stay up until about 3 in the morning almost every night, and get up at 5. By the end of the week, we were sooooo out of it!
I loved the dances! The last dance was fun, because we all knew each other so much better, and had fun dancing together. I also loved all of the classes. It was kind of disappointing because there were only 4 teachers TOTAL, so there wasn't much variety, but the topics they spoke on were awesome, and I learned a lot. I filled up my whole EFY journal with notes and thoughts. We also had amazing devotionals and morningsides each day, and on the second to last night, our session director gave an AMAZING talk on the atonement, right before our company testimony meeting. The spirit was so strong, and it was an awesome feeling to share with hundreds of other youth.
On the way up to EFY, and on the way back, Morgan and I stayed at my friend Kirsten's house. I met Kirsten last year at EFY, and have been able to keep in touch with her on a daily basis. It was lots of fun, because Kirsten is one of my best friends, and I never get to see her, and it was fun for Kirsten and Morgan to finally meet.

We're anxious to see the pictures. Are you going to include any of the ones that we took at the campus bookstore :)
Thanks for coming up. We were glad to see you, even if it was only briefly before and after EFY.
