School In Zion...AGAIN!

so we went to the school in zion for class last friday. That was kinda cool, not gonna lie. I think sometimes i forget how much was sacrificed for me to be here at this school. Plus, i heard some new stories i didn't hear before. For instance, back in the olden days, they could pay their tuition and what not by IOU's. cool huh? yaa. But also, kids back then didn't have as much, and still had to sacrifice a TON more! Oh goodness. I'm so lazy it's ridiculous. I can just sit on a lap top and type away. People used to have to use type writers. Kinda funny, yet kinda sad. Sad for them, cuz my ways easier. Sad for me, cuz they've learned hard work, and well I haven't necessarily fully gotten there yet. 
There are two HUGE pictures in the school of zion. WOW!! they are amazing. They make me want to take a photograph or two like that someday. beautiful! Also, I watched this video that had President Hinckley in it. It made me sad, cuz i miss him and love him oh so very much. 
Oh ya, I also didn't realize how much they tried to portray the light of christ in the museumish thing. Like the sun roof at the top of the building, and the vines on the couches, and on the rug, and also in the paintings where it had the light shining on the school and stuff. It was cool. Also made me feel bad cuz that just goes to show how little i pay attention to detail. I didn't figure it out on my own...the lady working there had to tell me .
I should probably go back and visit that place a few more times, and see how many new things i can learn everytime! mmm. yummy yummy knowledge. BYE!
