Natalia's School

Today I had went to school with Natalia today. It was pretty fun. Natalia is a 6th grade teacher in Idaho Falls and has a very interesting class. At her school the subjects are split up and each teacher teaches that subject to all the 6th graders. It's sorta like middle school but she still has an actual class that she does other stuff with. It's sorta confusing. They also split the 6th graders into three different math groups by their level. Natalia teaches the lower class and they are pretty crazy. She tried something new with her kids today to see if they behave better. I went to help. She split up her class into three groups and is teaching the groups the lessons one at a time while the other groups are working on worksheets. On the days that I will be there I also teach a group another concept that they will need for the ISAT (the Idaho standardized testing). Today was the first day I was there and it seemed to be pretty successful at least I though so. 6th graders can be pretty funny but very talkative.

Since I'm here in Idaho and can't do seminary I have to go to institute with my sister today. I am so not looking forward to it! Not because I don't want to learn more but because I just feel like it's going to be super awkward. I hate feeling like an outsider and I've had enough of that lately. Also I feel like it would be kinda rude to come to a class sign up and come one other time just to leave. I mean that seems rude to me. I don't know. I'm just not really looking forward to it. I guess I should but I'm really not. I guess I'll go and see how I like....Also I know it sounds bad but I don't really care that I graduate from seminary. All it is is a slip of paper that says I did it. I really do have the frame of mind to graduate and if I was home I would be still be going to seminary. I have a testimony of the church and I tried to graduate but if I don't will it really be the end of the world? I have no idea. I'm so confused. I also don't want to regret not graduating from seminary the rest of my life either. I really don't know. I'm going to try going to institute today and then we'll see what happens
