what you never thought could happen in your sleep

So recently I've found out how weird I actually am in my sleep. I knew, of course that I was weird in my conscious hours. I guess I should have figured it would carry over to the sub-conscious, but I never would have guessed it would have gone this far! I've had this sleep talking thing since I was about nine or ten, when my sister(we'll call her Alyssa, cause that's her name) told me that I had been sleep-taling the night before, and that I had said something about "passing the pencils". I thought I had gotten over it til I started college, at which point things really got weird. It started by just talking, like in the past. Jimmy would tell me just about every morning that I had been talking again. Gradually, I began to move up the ladder, and My roomate told me that I had sat up in bed with my fist outstretched and my eyes wide open, promptly followed by my head hitting the pillow and my eyes shutting again. He actually filmed me doing it once(If you'd like to see that, plus my excellent shower singing, just look at my videos on facebook) Beggining second semester, my new roomate (Max) has noticed my mutterings in the night, and has threatened to throw bottles at me if I do not keep quiet. But since he has become my roomate, he has reported me doing something I never thought possible... singing in my sleep! He tells me that one early morning, he awoke to hear me singing " I love rock and roll" by Alan Merrill and Jake Hooker of The Arrows. And you thought you were strange!

Mission papers

They're finally done! After about 6 months, I was anxious to get my mission papers in. I had finished all the paper work last semester, as well as the bishop's interview. Finally, yesterday, I was able to finish up the Stake President's interview, so I should know where and when I'm going in 2-3 weeks! I'm pretty excited but kinda nervous too. It's certainly gonna be an experience! You can post you're guesses as to where you think I'll be going on this blog or on the facebook group, "Spenser's going on a mission!" , or I guess both, if you're an avid fan. Maybe There will be a prize?
