I think this is the coolest thing ever.
Okay, so today is my birthday. Yay me. And you'll never guess what I found out today in church.
Kay, so apparently May 17th 1909 (exactly 100 years ago today) was the day that the LDS church was officially established in my province. Cool hey?
I've been alive all my life and I never knew that my birthday was the birthday of Alberta's Mormonhood. I think this is so cool that you just don't even know. In fact I'm exstatic about it. I'm far more excited about this than I am about my birthday.
However, what I'm not excited about is that apparently, to celebrate this our entire city's Mormon youth are being forced to put together a massive dance performance. I don't know much about it, but it's not happening until next fall. Apparently each ward has been given a style of dance. We got ballroom, which is probably the worst one I could imagine for this other than the tango.
I'm sure I'll get stuck with some 12 year old as my partner, like I always do. That combined with the fact that I'm not that great of a dancer is giving me a sick feeling in the pit of my stomache. My best bet is that they'll pair us up according to height, but even then I'd probably end up with "Bob". The guy I mentioned earlier who's really monotone and who has a thing for our Sunday school teacher.
Oh man. Well, I'll let you know more about that when I learn more about it.
Maybe it'll be okay... maybe not... I dunno. I'm not gunna worry about it until it comes.
...But ballroom? Seriously?

Brazil did something like this about 5 years back while my brother was serving his mission there. He brought home a dvd of it and I thought it was the coolest thing ever! I bet Alberta's will be equally awesome. =D
