Mourning the End of Ballroom. . .and Praying None of the Guys from Class Find This . . .

Long-anticipated, today was the final day of Spring 2012 Tuesday-Thursday classes.  While this was overall a day of celebration -- it being the very last day EVER that Kaitin and I had to attend creative arts, and likewise the end of mine and Felicia's stats class -- I'm having a moment of mourning for the end of ballroom. 
If I'm to be completely honest, I have to acknowledge that this mourning is centered around my not being able to see the attractive guys in my ballroom class twice a week anymore.  Yes, I'll miss learning the various social dances for the sake of learning them (Adam is an awesome teacher!), but mostly, I'm just going to miss the people. ..er, boys.  I'll miss doing crazy steps I hadn't learned yet with Kyle, wondering what on earth Josh was doing and trying to figure out what was wrong with me when I couldn't follow the best dancer in the class, laughing with Chris, talking about random stuff with Trent, looking like an idiot pretending to be a man while in a skirt (long story. . .) and mostly, flirting with Cameron and him flirting back and for him simply being the first guy to take any notice of me in awhile (he-who-need-not-be-named doesn't count!).
Having completed the full semester of ballroom (instead of dropping out like half the class. . .), I can now fudge my way through a variety of social dances, and I feel safe saying I'm well on my way to mastering the art of flirting while still managing to follow my partner's leads.  It makes me feel very accomplished :)
And, on a random note. . .I had no idea how loved I was until I read the last two blogs posts.  To continue the expressing-appreciation-over-the-blog-even-though-we-all-live-in-the-same-apartment trend . . . thanks guys! 
Just realized that I'm anonymous and the guys from ballroom will never know it was me posting,

Counting the days

Holy cow!! The year went by so fast . . . although I've been counting down the days for a while. There is only one week left of class . . . only one week!! Then finals and moving . . . As in Felicia's post she, Andrea and I are going to be living together for the summer and Jane will be going back home . . . we will miss her, it will feel sort of strange without her there . . . She is the most responsible of the three of us. There are however people I won't miss . . . I'm not going to name names but . . . yeah.
Any how just thought I should post before dead week here on campus . . .

Wow. It's been awhile.

So I don't think we've been very good about the whole "ya let's get a blog it will be fun". It's totally fun, except we never update it. Ya, awesome! Haha.Good thing probably no one reads this. ;) But I figured as this school year was soon coming to an abrupt close that I would write a little something. It seems like this semester has gone by so quickly. It has been crazy insane. I have made some new incredible life long friends, and there have been a lot of awesome wonderful memories and things I will deffinately never forget. There have also been some rough times and some stress. But what's life without a little challenge? Andrea, Kaitlin and I will be partying it up this summer as we stay up here close to campus. Jane, sadly, will be leaving us for the summer to go home. We will miss her so much, and I'm sure I'm not wrong by saying that are group will feel quite incomplete without her here. But she gets to go home where the food and living are free, and that I envy. The school year has just flown, especially this semester, while at the same time August feels like it was ages ago. I feel like I've known Jane and Andrea for years when we haven't even known each other for a full year. Life gets strange the older you get. On Sunday I will be 19 and the closer it gets to that day the more I begin to realize that I'm growing up. We all are. We are in college! Which still seems so weird to me. Soon we will be getting married and then having kids. All things I'm super excited for but up until now seemed a distant dream. Now it seems very realistic and just around the corner. I'm still not sure how I feel about that. In a way, I'm scared. This year has been absolutley incredible and one of the best experiences I've ever had. I'm so glad I've met such wonderful people, and I'm so excited to continue the adventure. :)

Broken Chins and Seizing Friends

What an adventure! Over spring break Felicia, Kaitlin, Jane, and I went Ice Skating with some friends back home. It was a joyful experience...kind of. We were doing just fine for about an hour just skating around, talking, and having a good time, That is until Jane, Felicia and I notice that Kaitlin has tripped and split her chin on the Ice. So we go with the person who works there to get a band-aid and stuff and we are sitting there just fine. I am sitting by Felicia's friend Megan and suddenly she starts to shake and move funny and I was super confused until it gets worse and then I move and we realize...oh she is having a seizure... She apparently doesn't like the sight of blood and faints and has siezures when she's around it. Moral of the Story if you don't like blood don't go into a little room with a friend who is bleeding.
Not sure whether to laugh or be shocked,
Andrea

Sparkly Men . . . Not for me

The other day we watched Breaking Dawn . . . and I know what you're thinking a bunch of giggly girls watching the most cliche vampire trilogy ever . . . well the whole sparkling thing is not all that cliche, but anyway . . . that would be wrong. Felicia and I have this thing where we sit and make fun of it through out the entire movie, let me tell you it's the ONLY way to watch those awful things. And it is funny, I think we laughed through the whole thing . . . Although they did a good job making Kristen Stewart look anorexic . . . Haha . . . then they blew her up like a balloon . . .

Your Eyes Are as Blue as the Toilet Water at Home

Oh the season of cheesy romantic gestures has finally approached, some being a little less romantic than others. I hate Valentine's Day. And it has nothing to do with the fact that my boyfriend is far away teaching people how to save their souls. I just think it is the stupidest holiday ever. So much so that Kaitlin and I have created the tradition of hanging anti-love poems about. They include the following. Read and enjoy! :)

Love is like . . .
. . . garbage, we all have some but it still stinks.
. . . a cemetary, there are only certain days of the year you should celebrate it.
. . . a pug, some people think it's cute but most think it's an ugly flat-faced dog.
. . . skydiving, it's all great until you hit the bottom without your parachute.
. . . a freeway, occasionally you get side swept by a jerk.
. . . trashbags, all your crap gets thrown in it.
. . . a bouncy ball, it has it's highs and lows and gets thrown around a lot.
. . . a bus, it gets you where you need to go as long as you don't mind all the smelly people along the way.
. . .text messaging, super convenient but highly misinterpreted.
. . .the stairs, you work really hard to get to the top but it's really easy to slide down the banister.

Elders Quorum Zumba

So if you couldn't tell from Felicia's post Kaitlin, Jane, and I went home for the weekend. My family and I went to the U of U gymnastics tournament and one of the songs they played was All the Single Ladies, that reminded me of Divine Comedy so I went home and I showed my Mom and Dad and Brother a couple of the songs from them. Unfortunately they didn't think they were as funny as I do. Lamesauce . . . but, because I know my roommates will appreciate it I am posting one of my favorites. Elders Quorum Zumba!!! P.S. maybe it will Cheer Felicia up a bit.
