Seminary Graduation

Seminary Graduation was on May 23, 2012. 4 years have gone with 4 different teachers. Freshman year with Brother Blackwell. He was an awesome teacher. My mom and I walked from home to the seminary building for the first few weeks since we were still very new in the U.S, but then we did not have to walk back home because brother Blackwell offered us a ride home (I hadn`t started school yet). He shared life stories and lessons every Fridays. He always reminded us to "Watch Our Language." Gotta  love him!
Sophomore year with Sister Garrett. Every morning my dad would drop me off at her house, then I would ride with her to the seminary building. One time we found a dead scorpion near the piano bench. The other time, we had an unusual visitor (a bird came inside the class room and that happened twice). She taught wonderful lessons and made learning so much fun and enjoyable. Love her to death!
Junior year with Brother McNeil. He has the cutest little boy ever. He also loved to tease each and everyone of his students. Just like Sister Garrett, he made learning so much fun and enjoyable. He kept us awake throughout the class. Love him so much!
Senior year with Brother Martin. I just loved hearing all his extreme missionary stories. He provided us food for every Fridays. Awesome just like others!

There are so many memories in Seminary. From being asked to speak at the Seminary Orientation five hours before the meeting, play the piano almost everyday (even sometimes a whole straight week),  asked to offer the benediction at the Seminary Graduation Ceremony, and more.

I`m just so glad that I had the opportunity to attend Seminary. Not only have I gained more knowledge about the Gospel, but I have also strengthened and made new friendships with new friends in Seminary.
