Once a home teacher and his young companion tried to set up a Sacrament Meeting in my family's living room. They didn't even bring bread fir the sacrament, and had the nerve to complain that we only had wheat bread in the house. it didn't matter. my mom offered to make sandwiches for them, which they declined, but siad we'd already gone to mass and were not having another church service that day in our home or anywhere else. the home teacher and his 14-year-old sidekick left in a huff. This was in a northern CA community where the concentration of Saints per capita was considerably higher than it was and is in most parts of CA. It wasn't in Fairfield but not far away.
Note: I'm not logged in because I cannot find my password. I read frequently but seldom post. I'm a bit sensitive, and a few posters hurt my feelings in the past with what I considered to be insensitive replies. perhaps I was merely taking things too personally, though.
I could use some help from some of you if you are willing. I understand many of you have neither the time nor the inclination to help either me or anyone like me. If you wish not to offer any assistance to me, I would sincerely appreciate it if you would simply decline to offer assistance rather than taking shots at me personally, which happened once before a few years ago when i asked for help with something. I'm still recovering from the sting of some of those insults, and it's taken me considerable time to garner the nerve to ask for something again.
I'm a 20-year-old first-year medical school student. Most of my time is spent in studying. I play piano and violin for sanity, but I need another creative outlet for the hours after studying when I can't sleep. Playing an instrument during those hours would be rude both to my brother who shares a condo with me and to the neighbor who shares a common wall. I've decided to take up writing, as in fiction. I've been told that it's best to write about what one knows about. I don't want to write about medical school because I need a diversion from medical school; writing about my studies and encounters there would at this point be somewhat counterproductive in that regard. instead, what I've written thus far has been against a backdrop of Mormonism, as it's what I know. "Write what you know," is what my writing instructors always said.
I need advice in many areas. Anyone who wishes to help me in this regard could either do so here.
I'm the niece of SCMD. He's shared a few of my posts before.
Again, help me if you're so inclined, but ignore me otherwise. I really appreciate it.
