The best weekend EVER (almost...)

So basically, this weekend was awesome. Friday night we went to a party called "Beaver Dick Bash", and that wasy pretty fun. There was a lot of moshing and crowd surfing and sweating, which was an interesting experience, but fun. Jamie and I met these two guys, Terry and Chris. They're cool guys. Anyhow, we hung out with them some, and Terry gave us a ride home in his new Audi, so we didn't have to take the shuttle home, and we stopped to get drinks, which made us almost late for curfew, and since they closed the gate early, Jamie and I had to jump the fence when we got home. We exchanged #s with Terry and Chris, and they invited us to go "Texas snoball fighting" with them and they're roomates and friends in the morning. That's where you take women's panty hose, cut them in sections, fill them with flour, and chuck 'em at each other. It was way fun. It started raining tho, and the flour turned to glue, lol. Afterwards, we wet to the ice caves with them. It was beautiful. There were sections that we had to lie on our backs and kick the cieling to slide through, and a really steep part that we had to go up and down with a rope that was frozen into the ice. There was also a cool ice slide at the end. When we got out, the ocean was falling out of the sky, and we had to ride the 20 minutes back to Terry's car in the back of a pickup truck, while we were already cold and wet, just to get more so. I came out with only one battle wound-on one of the parts we had to crawl in the pitch dark, I slammed my knee really hard into a big rock. OUCH! i couldn't walk on it the whole day, and I still have a bit of a limp. But oh well -it was way worth it! :)

I-Learn is EVIL!

I officially HATE I-learn! All of our school assingments are online on I-learn, and they BLOCK IT on SUNDAYS! ugh so much for free agency right? so for those of us who still have homework to do, not that we procrastinated, just that there's SO much, well too bad for us. we have to get up 3 hours earlier than normal and do our homework in the morning before class. fun. so anyways, we all just got back from dinner at Sara and Barry Farnes house, which was nice. We had tacos and nachos and it was quite delish. Oh, this morning, Jamie fell out of bed. I woke up to her alarm, and the next thing i hear is a loud THUNK, and i look over, and there she was, on the ground. It was very funny. She's the first one to go. Anyways, Friday night we went bowling with Brandon, Durk, Nick, and Nick's friend Garrett. It was fun. I of course had to brag about my wonderufl bowling skills before hand, so bad karma got me and i sucked. of course. Saturday was the welcome back dance, and it was mostly lame-ish, but oh well. im off to bed now tho, since i gotta get up early for homework. wish me luck!

My First Week

So it's Friday evening, and my first week of classes if officially over. What are my plans for Friday evening you ask? Homework. Yes, I said homework. I have so much. Ugh. I had my first REAL meal last night tho. All the other meals have been instant or microwavable or something along those lines. We had elk spaghetti. Lol. Good thing, thanks to my uncle Dave, I've already had elk meat, otherwise I'm sure I would've been totally opposed to the idea. It was made by a guy named Troy from my humanities class. He was over because one of our assignments was to creat a playlist or cd of a list of 35 classical songs, so we decided we would make one together so we could split the cost. Anyways, it was actually quite good. Tho jamie of course, didn't eat the elk meat. Lol. And now it is friday and i've been doing homework for 3 hours straight. me and my roomies might now take a break, tho idk for sure. tomorrow starts out with a math study group meeting, followed by a science group meeting, and then some more homework to finish. The only social thing i might do this weekend is go to the dance tomorrow. hmmm, so far, college is very intense, and for those of you who said it would be easy *cough cough* Sister Law and Sister Smith, you guys are liars. But i still love you. <3

The first 2 first days of classes

so the very first day of classes went pretty good. long and stressful, slightly overwhelming, but good. atleast for me, haley had a pretty classic BAD first day. my second first day (different classes every other day so the second day was all new classes again) was pretty bad tho! well not overall, just that i MISSED completely missed my book of mormon class. i dont know how, but i just completely forgot about it, thinking that i had gone yesterday for some reason. so that SUCKS, but atleast i didn't miss much. We had FHE on monday, and there actually WAS cute guys in our ward, tho we didnt see them on sunday. of course, they're not in OUR FHE group, but oh well. we had fun anyways. we got a free 3 liter of soda there tho, if we promised to have some guys over for dinner to share with. so, tonight we were gonna invite some guys over. the guy durk i mentioned before texted me earlier, so my roomies and i decided to invite him over, and then some other guys "of course". yeah so much for that, no one else invited any guys over, and so durk was the only one that came. it ended up being fine, but i did sorta feel stupid since it seemed like I was the one to invite him over, and he was the only guy there,but OH WELL.

The rest of Sunday

So church was pretty good. We met a few girls that we live next to that seem pretty fun, so we're probly gonna hang out with them in the future. Our relief society president is pretty nice. When we get out of church, we can see the temple, which is beautiful. At 6:00 there was a CES fireside, and Brandon, the guy that's in love with my roomie Myla, invited us over to watch the broadcast at his place. We met his roomies too, a few of which we already had met in our I-Team. After the broadcast, Durk (in our I-team) and his friend Levi came over too, and the guys made no-bake cookies, which surprisingly turned out good, considering Andrew turned on EVERY burner while only using one, thinking that it made the one he was using hotter, lol. What a dork. And now I'm getting ready for school in the morning, and doing my math homework assignment that my evil teacher already gave me via email.

I made it to COLLEGE!

It's Sunday morning, and I've just finished getting ready for church in my new ward-3rd ward, with my roomies. I got to Rexburg late Thursday night with my parents, and said good-bye to them yesterday. I'm gonna miss them a lot! And everybody else too. I'm rooming with my besties Haley and Jamie, and another girl we all just met on Thursday named Myla. She's from Colorado and she's really cool. We all like her a lot. We've been busy since we got here with all sorts of freshman orientation things. Last night we went to an "I-Night Extravaganza" which was ok. Afterwards we came back to our dorm with three guys, Travis, Brandon, and Durk, to eat chocolate from Haley's chocolate fountain. And that's pretty much it!
