- Huddle Formation -


Props to Emily for turning our boring Saturday night around and coming up with something fun to do.


We stenciled cheap t's and in honor the The Go! Team, who I love very much, I decorated my shirt with a nice "GO!" similar to the one they put on their merch. I'm pretty happy about it.

Remember my short post announcing Cael Jensen's homecoming? Well, he came up to visit the next day and I thought I'd throw up a picture from the event. It's a pretty good one except for everyone in it looks fried. Classic.


We haven't all cuddled together since spring 2008. Talk about a blast from the past, right?

- Nothing Better -

than
CRAFT NIGHT
[A+ picture right thur]
Jake and I spent the evening making friendship bracelets for each other (=real friends), while the others made beautiful paintings and drawings of elephants, Mexicans, and dinosaurs.
We lost Koga, David, and Megan around 12:30 - 1:00 am and by 2:30 am Jake, Justin and I found ourselves at Beto's standing in a line way longer than any food joint should have that early in the morning.
Sleep finally came at 3:00 am.
Feels good running wild like children. I never stay up that late anymore, but I'm glad I did because that's what college is about sometimes..
..plus I just really LOVE this group of people.

- Finally -


I've FINALLY done something exciting. I feel like it's been so long!!! My life has been soooo boring.

School

Work

School

Work

School

Work

School

Work

That's all I've done for the past too long!

But this weekend, I tie dyed a shirt.
Yes.


My roommates and I have a list of 50 things to do before the semester ends (I can't remember if I've mentioned it before) and that was #45. Carly, Abigail, and Macky dyed their shirts on Thursday (I think) and Megan and I dyed ours Friday before I went to work. It was an easier process than I remember it being but still so fun. My life's been so uneventful until now! I can't even express it. I'm grateful for this shirt dying experience.

- Katchup -

We had a little family get together last Sunday with a few families from the Allen side. This salad dressing was brought by my cousin, Sage, the one making the funky face in this picture. Ha. I would have never been able to guess what kind of dressing this was...

But, then again, how many people would have? Ha. Yeah.. It's Blue Cheese and it expired in '04. Kind of funny.

My facebook status says I'll be doing crafts until I head back up to school (August 17th). And that's the dang truth. Tuesday I asked for and was given this (below) desk from the elementary school I work at. Perfect right? I hauled it home asap and washed it good. Then I primed it, with the help of Paige. And painted it white. The final paint job was less than satisfactory, so I've been told I should do another coat. HA. If I do... It will be dark purple. Which was the original plan until I decided to stick with extremely boring. :)

4. A picture of the finished product will be posted soon. :)

Last night Mom, Megan and I went to Moochies for Philly cheese steak sandwiches (Mmmm..) then headed to a Bee's game. It was a pretty good time, ya? Megan and I are not twins.

^A sign at Moochies taped onto a door from which loud banging sounds were coming.
^Megan and Me at Moochies. (Scarf I'm wearing was craft #2, today I bought fabric to make more :). )
^Fireworks after the Bee's game!

This last picture is my most recent. It is from today's custodial experience at Lincoln Elementary. The reason I took this picture is because I thought it was just funny.

While I was being given instruction on how to carry out my daily duties, Cam told me to make sure to throw the trash in the first dumpster. So I was thinking OK I need to remember that or I'm doomed. Later, I walked out to dispose of the schools waste and well.. Did he really think it that necessary to tell me which bin to throw the trash in? .. ha ha.
