So maybe I should feel a little bit bad about this. Maybe an attitude change is in order. But I have a bit of a problem with made-up callings in student wards. Just because auxiliaries are missing does not mean that they should be imagined. Honestly. Sunshine committee? What's next, people?
Sometimes I really wonder about BYU and what it would be like to be at a different school. I mean, it's really a great place, and I love it, but I think a lot of ridiculous things originate here--maybe because of the unusually concentrated Mormon culture.
I got a calling on Sunday in my ward as the Relief Society Literacy Specialist. I don't have a clue what that means and neither did any of the bishopric. But I will try to do my best to get the job (whatever it entails) done.
Literary specialist? SUNSHINE COMMITTEE? Quit lying. We know you're making these up. But my calling as Relief Society Centerpiece Beautification Co-chair is INSPIRED OF GOD.
