Reasons why....

Reasons why Katie is my bester fruend.... we can not shower, sit around all day completely alone, stuff ourselves with junk food and be completely satsified with ourselves. Love it!!!

Thursday Night Camp Fire

So my apartment decided to do a date night and have a bonfire. It was pretty exciting. We went to Courtney's grandparents house and roasted marshmellows and had coco. Most of us took dates from the group of boys on the first floor. Oh how I love a good bonfire!!!!

Angel.....

So I have an two hour and a half hour break during work while Kika takes a nap. Sometimes I try to do homework during that time or I doze off for a few minutes, nothing too exciting. The house I am at doesn't have cable or very many movies. However they do have every season of Angel. At first I couldn't bring myself to watch it until last week when I finally gave in. I have to say that it actually enjoy it. It reminds me a bit of the few x-file episodes I have seen with Melissa. I can add that to my list of guilty pleasures.

Foreign Film




So I took a much needed trip home this weekend. Friday night I went down to Provo Canyon for a film festival. It was so great to be with my friends. I would have to say that I have never experienced a foreign film before, but I quite enjoyed it. The fact that it was an outdoor film made it that much better. It was a bit chilly however, but I sat extremely close to Katie to make up for it. For those of you who haven't seen Cinema Paradiso I would highly recommend it. It was so great. I think I will be attending more foreign films...

Meatless Meat

So the lady I tend for eats super healthy. Everything is organic and what not. Well, I tend during lunch time and I often feed Kika the boka foods which she has in the fridge. I always make a little extra for myself to hold me over until I get home. So yesterday as I am eating them, I have always noticed that they tasted a little funny but I ate some anyways, I read the box. I had the moment of realization that I was eating a meatless sauage. I was a bit disturbed. I don't think I will be eating them anymore... Sack lunch will be much better.

Aggies all the way!!!

So today was the first home game for the football team. Naturally I attended the event so I could show off my school spirit. I actually joined the HERD which is the the spirit club for all sporting events. I kicked off the festivities by attending the tail gate party with my roomies Sarah and Courtney.
After the tail gate party I met up with Brooke and Vanessa. They were a bit more enthusiastic about the game than I was. I was anticipating a major loss.



Here is the stadium. I sat in the student section. We actually managed to get pretty good seats. We were pretty close to the shirtless section of people with a lot of spirit.





So in the middle of the second quarter we were down by a large number so Brooke, Vanessa and I decided to call a night and go back to our apartment. At about half time I was curled up on the couch eating corn and watching step up 2. I have a feeling my lack of school spirit hasn't changed since I moved up here.

My New Job

So here is my new job. Her name is Kika (short for Francesca) and I watch her on Monday, Wednesdays and Fridays. She is really easy going and fun to watch. So far I like my job a lot!!!

My spot on the Quad

So here is my view from my study spot on the Quad. This my favorite spot on all of campus. I have a couple of hours in between classes so I take that time to read here. I love it. I am a little bit sad that I will have to find a new spot when the snow comes.

Poster no more....

So tonight I get back from doing laundry at Jackie's house (I am eternally endebted to Jackie for letting me crash at her place and do my laundry. The time I spend over there is Heaven sent!!!) and there is no poster on our door. I didn't take notice at first, until Marchele and Kelsie point it out. They have huge grins on their face. (Kelsie, Tiffani, and Marchele were totally against the poster and were worried that it would ruin their chances for a relationship with the male species) I am a bit concerned, part 1 because, as much as I hated what the poster represented, Sarah and Courtney put a lot of time and effort into making it and 2 I hate confrontation. So to make a long story short they convinced some boys in the hall to steal the poster and hide it somewhere. Once the boys took the poster and desposed of it, the girls checked all the floors to make sure it could not be located by Sarah and Courtney. Luckily I had no part in the whole thing and hope Sarah and Courtney don't find out what really happened to my poster. If they do it will not be pretty.....

Roomies

The picture below has nothing to do with the title, but I told Katie I would show her a picture of my Ecuadorian skirt. I have very fond feelings towards the skirt (colorful things excite me). So here I am in it ready to go to church. Which (another random fact about my life) I have officially recieved a calling. I am the family home evening mother over a group of six apartments. I felt so solid about this calling (I am just grateful that I am not the Relief Society president) and think it will be a good way for me to actually meet my neighbors and branch out a bit (I know I am a bit pathetic and haven't gotten around to meeting to many people on my floor...). If anyone has any good FHE activity ideas let me know.....
So I finally took a picture of all of my roomies. It is a bit crowded, but I was determined to have a snap shot of all of us together. So on the bottom left is Kelsie, above her is Sarah, to the right of my head (sorry I am taking over the picture) is Courtney, right next to Courthney is Tiffani, and last of all is Marchele at the bottom right (she is the one I share a room with.)

Food Whores....




I will start this post by defining the phrase food whore. A food whore is someone who uses food in order to win over the affection slash love of males. My roomies are those someones. I got back from a movie night at Brooke's appartment to find this hanging on our door..... They have posted a flavor of the night and plan to change it nightly to a different flavor. I am not sure how I feel about the whole situation. All I know is that if you want a guy to know you like him, don't offer him food. He will have no idea that food equals feelings. He just wants free food.....

Switzerland


So living in an apartment with five other girls can be a treat. Things have intesified a bit with school starting and I have officially become the Switzerland in my apartment. Sarah and Courtney don't like Tiffani and Kelsie (particularly Tiffani) and Tiffani and Kelsie think they are weird. Here I am in the middle just hanging out. Both groups tell me what bothers them about the other groups. Sarah and Courtney are a bit more verbal about it than the others. They won't say anything about what is going on in their lives in front of Tiffani, Kelsie or Marchele. They are pretty obvious about it too. Let's just say I am glad that I am neutral ground at the moment. I am not sure what I am going to do however when the two seperate groups confront each other with their true feelings. I will let you know how that turns out....
