Well, I managed to keep this up long enough for the assignment that was due, but obviously I've been slacking since I turned it in. I did get a good grade on it though. So here I am again. Just trying to get back in the habit of writing every so often. This is the closest thing to a journal I have I guess.
I have recently started attending the midsingles activites with my church. We have the YSA which is single LDS members between the ages of 18 and 30 and then there is the MSA which is normally 30 to 45 but now it starts at 27. :-) I feel that I fit in better with the midsingles than the young singles. I have a lot more in common with them. I don't know that it's any less drama, just a different kind of drama. I've had a lot of fun at the few activitites I've been to. I've made many new friends, however most of them are over 2 hours away given that the main activities are held in CA. I intend on helping spread the word here in the Reno area though so we can start holding activities here. Our group is so small right now. I'm looking forward to seeing what we can do.
From what i heard the Mid-Singles has just as much drama as the YSA group. I had high hopes of escaping the drama. Now I just tell people that I don't want to hear what others are saying about me and so far so good. Have fun. That is what I'm doing. I also look young so I attend the YSA activities. Plus I don't have any kids so I can easily fit into the YSA group too. I'm in a family ward, but attend their weekly FHE and other activities. There are some older ones there too so some of us connect, but I realized that age isn't always a connection factor, similar life experiences is where you really connect.
ReplyDeleteKeep spreading the world. There are probably a lot of MSA in Reno they just got lost in the system. You need to reactivate them and get them out. It takes time to get any group going. The plus is FB is a good way to spread the word.
