The Dance

Last Saturday my friends and I got all gussied up and went to a dance. The dance was out in discovery park in a three story building…how cool is that. Need I say we were all very excited….

until we got inside.

There were only a couple of people and all of them were high schoolers, YIKES, and yes I know it was only a year ago that I was a little tike excited for a big college adventure, but now I get to look down on these youngiens (kidding and yes I frequently make up my own words).

We decided to stay and make it cool bahahahaha.

Well pretty soon tons of college kids came and it got really fun for a bought 30 minutes and then there were too many people. (I sound like Goldie locks).

Soon the dance floor got crowded and very interesting. Growing up in Saint Johns my idea of dancing is bobbing up and down and on a slow dance being a good foot away from your partner. This was NOT how they were dancing; I just couldn’t fathom how anyone would be comfortable doing what they were doing. Not only did it not look fun but it seemed highly scandalous. I could go into details but this is a family blog. All you need to know is that they were all very close to each other and it wasn’t pretty. They basically showed Baby and Jonny what real dirty dancing is all about (if you have not seen the movie Dirty Dancing….you are not missing out. Sorry if that offends anyone).

And the most shocking thing about the dance was they were mostly Mormons. WHAT!?

My roommates and I were flabbergasted, and there were return missionaries dancing too. Now my roomies and I are going to make it mandatory that we see our husbands dance before we’re married, the more awkward and far apart the better hahaha. I have to mention there was a return missionary who came up to us and was as disturbed as we were. Needless to say he got major points in our book, as did all the guys that looked liked deer caught in headlights at the dance. (didn't know girls kept points, well now you do)

Anyhoo we still had fun in our little corner bobbing away. I love how weird my roomies and I are :)

Best Day EVER!

Irreconcilable Differences

This weekend I went home for a few days of relaxation (if you count hauling barrels of leaves out of my yard relaxing) and came back to my dorm which was in complete chaos! Two of my community mates are moving out due to irreconcilable differences and drug related issues.
One of them, I’ll call her Julie, has the cops in our community looking for her cause her roommates caught her with drugs

nice.

And the other one, Sally, has been such a big meanie to her roomie that she is now blessing said roomie by removing herself. Well to truly understand the situation of Sally I’ll have to tell what happened last week. I walked into my community and was disgusted, there was dishes in the sink that has some kind of fungus growing in them and there was a two month old bouquet of flowers still sitting on our counter letting off a foul odor. All of these dishes and flowers belonged to SALLY! And to top it off I was talking to my roomie Kelly, who has mono, who said that someone (cough cough sally) had been using her spoon and bowl and leaving it dirty on the counter, GROSS!

So I kindly wrote a very nice note saying please do not use other people’s dishes and throw away your flowers. Also Kelly wrote that they needed to clean their (sally’s) dishes.

Someone (ahem Sally) wrote back saying, My dearest Roommates you are so immature. Mature people clean everyone’s dishes when the sink is dirty, we’re in college (o that’s where I am, I thought I was in hell).

bahahahahahaha What kind of logic is that? The only dirty dishes were hers!

Anna and I thought this was hilarious, we just laughed and laughed. Seriously, that’s the kind of argument you want to use, maturity is cleaning up after yourself not hoping someone does it for you. So we kindly wrote back that anytime she wanted to be mature and clean our dishes (if we ever have any) she was totally welcome to. YES I know this was not the mature way to go about things but it was hard to resist a sarcastic comeback to such an easy target, I kind of hope she gets Kelly’s mono hahaha kidding, I’m kidding…sort of.

So now sally is leaving….I think our sink will be very lonely without her dishes.

Halloween

Yes I know that it is no where near Halloween but I thought I would do a recap on the EAC days before the blog. For our first college Halloween my roommates and I did not get the memo that Halloween was an excuse for girls to dress immodest and be a princess or a fairy in tights and a mini skirt. I too was a fairy, but instead of going the cute/ho route I dressed just about as ugly as I could get. Anna and I bought fake blood to put on our necks so it looks like our throats were cut and painted our faces white with dark hollow cheeks. It is reported that when my mom saw the pictures she said and I quote," Ya they are not getting asked to dance." MEAN! But my roommates and I did not care, cause what is Halloween without zombies. Soooo we freaked people out at least we'll always have good memories.

Happy Saint Patricks Day (The Art of Blog)

I finally figured out how to post pictures, playlists, and let people leave comments. So i'm going to start showing you all the fun things my roommates and I do. Just yesterday we found this million dollar bill on someones car. Well we picked it up and apparently its a religious card that aks if you do certain sins then condems you to hell. Anna and I just loved it, we took pictures with it and ended up going through the parking lot that night and stealing some for our room. So I'll have to post those pics later tonight.

So this picture is when Candace and I were in Target and we found to our amusement Beer hats for Saint Partricks day. Since we are lowly poor college students we had to take a picture instead of actually buying them. And today Anna and I found beer looking bottles that actually contain Cream soda for tonights festivities. It is very exciting.

(I feel like I have mastered the art of blog hehe)

Why you should stick with the Classics.

At the lunchroom the workers have begun to get really creative. Instead of giving us, o lets say pie, they serve us chocolate cake and put in on top of chocolate pudding and then sprinkle it with Oreo crumbs. Now I have been one to make fun of this and say the occasional, “Who does that to food,” but I decided to change my ways and try it before I knocked it. So I went into the lunchroom with the intent of grabbing whatever the dessert was and eating it even if my survival instincts were shouting, "Noooo!".The delectable dish for the day was lemon jello with strawberry yogurt and topped with granola and gummy bears, o lucky day. It was like eating chunky, strawberry sauce and chasing it with a shot of Pinesol, sweet and refreshing. Well it did add an extra zing to my day, but now I can say with an informed mouth, “Who does that to food.”

Assignments

I would love to say that the first thing college students do after they get homework is say, “o boy,” and skip to their rooms to do it immediately….but that would be a lie. What usually follows is, what I have perfected, procrastination. We could have gotten the assignment for our project weeks in advance, but when do we do it? The night before. Procrastination only brings feelings of dread and doom and so you would think we would learn from it and do our assignments in a timely fashion, but we don’t. It’s like we completely ignore all the bad things that come from last minute assignments such as; bad grades, acne, itchiness, and being constantly on the verge of tears. You may question my motives for this blog, well I know a certain someone who has a 10 page paper that’s due on Friday, ME! It’s not like I planned for this to happen, I thought I had plenty of time to do the paper and now the feeling of terror is setting in. And what’s really funny is I took time to write on my blog instead of working on my paper. And to really top it off I have 450 questions to study for my psy midterm on Friday. Yup I love college!
(don't worry mom I'm officially locking myself in my room)
