like a fire is burning

Mood: Tired still...But still amazed from last night.
Listening To: Myself humming "The Spirit of God".
Reading: Harry Potter 6! *has a spaz* Squee. X3

Last night was the Day of Celebration. For those of you who don't know what it is, it was a huge youth festival thing that celebrated our first prophet (Joseph Smith)'s 200th birthday. And when I say huge, I mean HUGE!

There were around 46,000 people there from the Salt Lake City surrounding area. 15,000 were in the choir, and there were 8,000 dancers or something. And way over 4,000 flagbearers. Holy cow. I saw quite a few people I knew, including Tiffany, Colin, Laurie, Roxanne, Mike (my brother from the trek) and Abree... I can't remember who else, but it was amazing.

Just to hear that choir sing was so powerful... I cried. We made pictures with these scarves that everyone got. You know, in the movies they make words and stuff? Yeah, well, we did that with 46,000 people. The first one said "Jospeh 200th", the second said, "Follow The Prophet" and the third was a mountain range with a sun coming up on the left, then going down on the right, then saying, "Choose Light". It was so awesome.

Prophet Gordon B. Hinckley spoke at the end, and that was also breath-taking. We had a glow stick thing at the end, and that was really cool.

The dancers were amazing, the flags were awesome, the singing was beautiful, and I had a blast.
But I'm running out of adjectives, so I'll end here.

BUT IT WAS AWESOME.
