...and I'm very confused about a couple things. I'm super duper excited to go, there's just some stuff that I'm not very clear on. I dont get if we name our own companies or if they give us names. Is the only stuff we do dances, game night, and classes? So basically, I just want someone to give me a breakdown of what goes down at EFY. Also, any advice for what to take, what not to take, stuff about boys, roomates, that sorta thing.

-the name of the companies are completly random ON PURPOSE it makes it more fun and they usually get the names out of the bible/book of mormon/d and c (example: outward apprence- that was mine last year ) -dances, game night, and classes are the fun part of efy. there is also.....group desicion, pizza night, and there is just a ton of lessons. with both ur company, all of efy, with just the guyss....BUT every efy is different. -a normal day at efy is wake up, get ready, have a desicion with just the girls/guys. then you go meet with your company and have another lesson then go to breakfest. then after that u have a lesson with ur entire sesson. then you go to classes. have lunch. go to more classes. have dinner. then after dinner.....it depends on the day. everyday is different, you might have your service project, pizza party, or work on your group skit, dance, or have game night, or just go hang out. there is a lot of times where you wont be doing anything and thats when you get to know your group and have fun with them. like my group was obsessed with hackie sak and playing pool i the boys lounge area. -any other advice....just have fun and have a great attitude!!! try to ask every girl to excort because you never know which one likes you. and with your room mate....uh......i wouldn't know. me and my room mate tottally just hit it off. we got along great. we talked all the time and were just soooo close. also dont try to just hang around the same people.....get to know everyone. talk to everyone and be friendly.....but i dont want to tell you everything....you want to be surprised!!! everyone should do efy at least once! have fun!!!

Haha, benefits from the unexpected. Thanks Alyse, that's exactly what I needed to hear. I take off for my EFY session tomorrow morning, I'll let you all know how it is. It'll be my first time.

Thanks, that was about all I needed to know. And I do want it to be mostly a surprise, but I just found out last week that I'm going to be escorted around by a boy every day, and my friends thought it was obvious. I just don't want to get there and have no clue whats supposed to happen and look like a retard. And I can't wait to hear about your week hockeydude!
