Happy Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas!!!!!!!!!!! HAHA It's been awhile! ; p

Hello all!!! I know it has been a while! Sorry for that, been quite busy, you know with being in college and everything!! ;) So school is still going great!! Been really busy, but haven't gotten to the point that I have gone crazy yet!! On friday, I declared!!! I am now officially majoring in Biology!! It was really quite depressing, seeing the next three years of my life planned out in 10 mins! But, none the less, I am really excited to finally have decided!! And if I minor in music, it will be during my sophomore year! So yah I am just gonna feel you in from when i posted last, to what has happened most recently!

The first thing that happened was a halloween dance for the Young Single Adults in the Spokane region. It was held at a German club house in downtown Spokane. It was okay, the dance before was a lot more fun, but getting all dressed up was a blast! I went as an 80s girl. The first person I met at church was Amy. She is hilarious I love her! She is 28, she went back to EWU after getting her masters in psychology to get a masters in clinical psychology. She is really fun to be around! So since she grew up in the 80s she had a bunch of fun clothes for me to wear! I even had matching pink heels!! ; ) Amy, being as hilarious as she is, went as a SUITCASE!!!!!! It was AMAZING!!! Sorry the pictures are blurry, I didn't take them!

Amy and I. I have no idea who the crazy leprechaun man is! hehe

Dancing!

The next thing that has happened since my last post was the Young Single Adult Turkey bowl for the Spokane singles from church. There were about 13 teams there. The Cheney YSA's made up two teams so there were a quite of us from our ward there. We played 3 games, made it to the semi-finals!! The last game we played, the quarter back from our team threw the ball down the middle, I ran towards the middle to block and watched Wade and another guy from the other team go for the ball. Well, they both jump, the other guy rams into Wade, slamming him into me. I fly to the ground, hit my head on the ground, and then Wade falls on to the top of me. Everyone was like "OHH"!!!!!! I laid there for a second then got up and kept playing. It hurt, but I was like "man I hope I get a black eye that would be sweet!" haha. As it turns out I did!!! This is a picture a day after the game. The flash makes it look a little better than it was, but I thought it was a pretty entertaining experience! I loved playing tough with the guys it was really fun!

My beautiful eye!

Next came Thanksgiving!! Kathy went home with me. It was sooo nice to be home! Good food, being able to see friends, no flip flops in the shower, and a comfy bed!!! It's funny, what you come to miss!!

The next thing was the first snow!!!! It was sooo nice, all of the kids were so excited. The snow made everyone excited. Everyone was running around screaming. The office had sleds, so Austin and I checked two out, while everyone else used black garbage bags! They made holes for the head and two arms and put them on like a sweatshirt. They went down head first like penguins!!! It was hilarious!

Outside of my dorm. They just put in heated sidewalks.
They are very nice!

I know I look horrible, but thats what two hours
of sledding and snowball fights to to your makeup!
I am also eating a hostess snowball! HEHE

Austin, Tyler, and I. We were messing around before the sledding!

A couple nights later, there was a dance called the Gold and Green Ball put on by the Cheney First Ward. It was at the Cheney. It was a dance for YSAs and older couples in the ward. Tyler asked me, so we went along with my friend Kathy and her now ex-boyfriend (thank goodness!!) It was pretty fun, but there were only like 3 other YSA couples there! I curled my hair in spirals and then pinned the top up in an updo and had the rest just down, it was really pretty, but sadly, I forgot to take a picture of it!

Me being silly, I am always contemplating life!

Then came the next snowfall and exchange of christmas presents. Ashley and Brittany, friends from high school, live on the 6th floor of my dorm, so we hang out! We exchanged presents by going to our rooms, incorporating their present into our room, and then running to each other's room and searching for what we thought they gave us! It was quite entertaining!! We were running all over Morrison, up and down the elevators!

All of our presents!! I LOVE easy mac!!

Ashley got my snowball makers!! They are hilarious!

A few days later, it snowed a lot, we made snowballs with the snowball makers and then the guys came out and we messed around with Tyler's camera it was really fun! The snow flakes were huge, it was soo beautiful!

Our perfect snowballs!

Me nailing Ashley!

Aus and I eating snow!

Austin my next door neighbor! He is hilarious!

Matt throwing a snowball! I went to highschool with him
and he ended up to be on my floor!

The boys and I!

Well then came finals! They were fine, got a little stressed out, but made it through. I ended up with a 3 in Bio, 3.2 in precalc, 4 in english (my last english class ever!) orchestra, and private lessons! An overall 3.58. I have to work a lot harder in Bio, should have studied more! lol oh well Next semester! I am home now for Christmas break. We got Dec 14 to Jan 6 off! It is amazing to be home!! So comfortable and NO HOMEWORK!!!! We decorated the tree when I got home. We opened one present on Christmas day, the rest have to stay a surprise until Brandi and Mckenna get her on the 29th! Hope everyone's Holidays were fun and eventful or peaceful! lol

Thanks BRANDI!!!!

So Brandi tagged me. Even though i have already done this on myspace!!! LoL the rules are, someone tags you, you list 10 things about you, and then tag 5 more people. Since I only know one other person with a blog, I am going to tag BRANDEN!!! HAHAH

1) I have a very good sense of smell. Each smell I associate with a memory. The next time I smell it, I remember that memory.

2) I can remember where I bought it, how much it was, and if it was on sale. Especially if I love it!

3) Many of you most likely know this, but I loveeee dancing! I will dance like there is no tomorrow, it makes me so happy!

4) I plan like there is no tomorrow. Everything should be set and prepared for, especially a big get together. I get annoyed when plans change, especially if I am the one who set them first.

5) I LOVE cleaning!!! Rooms, desks, even bathrooms!! It makes me really happy, and I feel so accomplished when I finish and see everything sparkle.

6) I Burp, LOUDLY.

7) Moulin Rouge is my FAVORITE movie. I will watch anything to do with Nicole Kidman or Ewan McGregor. I am a little obsessed.

8) I laugh the same way my mom does. Especially when it is hilarious. We both squeak.
