Otter: In 1 Nephi ch. 15, when they talk about an olive tree. It's not literally talking about an olive tree, right?
Indigo: No. It's a representation of God's people. The branches are the people and the fruit is what we become.
Otter: And the tree is...?
Indigo: The people. Remember it's just a representation.
Otter: So the people will become olives?
Indigo: Exactly. Our end result is to become olives.
Otter: Ugh! I can't wait to be an olive!
Indigo: It's gonna be the bomb.
Otter: Little olive bombs!
Indigo: (laughs out loud) Explode? Olive oil all over!

Thank God For Chipotle.
Cody: What are we all thankful for? What is the one thing that we appreciate that God has given us?
(Everyone thinks...)
New kid: Without God, we wouldn't have Chipole...
Cody: Yes! That... Is what I'm most thankful for. Without it, I wouldn't be fed. Without God and his Creations, I wouldn't have Chipotle!
(Everyone laughs)
Cody: And that's not a false covenant!
** Chipotle is an American version of a Mexican grill where they are known for their huge, fat burritos. It's delicious but it's not authentic Mexican food. It's basically the white-wash version of Mexican food! There you go. That's what I meant.
** Also, Cody is our "Sunday School" teacher even though he's like, a few years older than me. Our classes are within our age bracket and we're all taught by Elders that have already done their missionary call. So our class is taught by Cody. Haha. He's a cool dude.

Mormon's Sunday Testimony.
So lately, I've been hanging out with my Mormon friends and I've been consecutively attending church for the last two weeks and been attending the classes and other activities.
(Btw, I feel so under-dressed compared to them.)
And yesterday, Joe, Mrs. Davis (Sister Davis) and I arrived late because we had to pick Joe up from his house. So we missed the "Sacrament Meeting" or something like that. But we were able to go in sometime in the middle. When we came in, it was time for some people to "bear their testimonies" and it's where they express certain hardships and how God has helped them get through it by presenting them with "blessings". And so everyone was slowly going up there and saying what they wanted to say (sometimes it wasn't about total hardships but more of commitments and promises that they will keep) and then Joe decides to go up.
