Drosophilas

Our apartment has had a bit of a fruit fly problem ever since we moved in. (very gross) At first we thought possibly it was due to dishes in the sink and the garbage can.... but they stick around no matter how clean we keep things. Now we just blame it on how ghetto our apartment is. Bridgette and Selina finally hit their cracking point yesterday and googled home remedies to get rid of our fruit fly friends. Vinegar and soap.
Fruit in a bag (this one has yet to attract any...)

and juice.

As you can see this one has been successful. Overall though the vinegar has proven to be most successful. Hopefully between these methods and the cold they will die off.

Silent film

I have officially experienced my first silent film. BYU hosts an organ performance to a silent film once a semester and my friend mike got us tickets. The movie of choice was the Hunchback of Notre Dame. It was much different from the disney movie.... the ending was not so much happy. The acting was amazingly cheesy and over the top! Loved it!
Some of my favorite people! Ashley dressed the part without even knowing what the movie was going to be.

Man in the Mirror...

"This is it" premiered Tuesday night and thanks to Melissa I got to see it opening night! It was a glorious event and the whole mj crew was there! Don't worry that we all assumed that everyone would be as anxious as us to get to the movie. We were there more than two hours early. We were the first and only ones there.... Obviously we are his biggest fans.
We killed some time eating cafe rio and cookies.

The movie was great! My love for him grew!!! It basically was compiled footage of every song he was going to perform. It was only his rehearsals, but he still was amazing! He ended the movie with my favorite song "Man in the Mirror". I am still shocked that he died because he seemed so healthy during the whole movie. Thanks Melissa for getting us the tickets!!!
