Blackhawk down! - but with a happier ending...well, happier experience overall.

Helloooo cyber world! This week has been inundated with a plethora of exciting experiences!

The first of which was a night in Blackhawk! :) What is blackhawk? - why thank you for asking, blackhawk is a small gambling town just west of Golden, Co. Just think of a mini Vegas, only less sweltering and uncomfortable heat. (and less classier citizens - besides us of course.) Us meaning, Natalia, Mandi and I.
It was a night to celebrate the birth of Mandi, my roommate. :)

Here are some pictures that we used to capture the event.

Salt Lake City aka. Party Town

This Sunday evening, Natalia, Erika and I will make the trek to Salt Lake City that so many pioneers before us have made. This time we will be driving a car, instead of a wagon, and we will not be heading to this beautiful mountain valley to escape from religious persecution, but for an exciting spring break party time.
I know what you're thinking, "How can one party in Utah? Do they even believe in fun?" - why yes, yes they do.
How do I know this? Because they are my people.
Who's they? Mormons, Latter Day Saints, my friends. (not all of them, obviously - but close.)
Of course we will stay sober, so that we will fully be able to enjoy every minute of our time in the Beehive State. No, there will be no "what happened last night?! I was soo hammered!". There will only be the full recognition that we made complete fools of ourselves the night before, with no booze to blame it on - Just our own fully sober selves.
You may think that sounds unpleasant, but its not. Not at all.

But now we have 1 week before we are to make our journey. I must get my crap together!

Insides jello

I have come to the conclusion at this very moment, that after an evening shower, when my room is clean, and I'm just sittin in my bed, the best song to listen to is either "Aint I Been Good to You" by The Isley Brothers or "Keep Yourself Warm" by Frightened Rabbit. Both of these songs are just mellow, very chill and speak to the soul. And by soul I obviously mean the part of the brain that responds to amazingly good music by giving me a little insides massage. Nice. So nice. I feel like jello. Or at least I feel like what I imagine jello Would feel if it were a living thing.

Drugs? no, no drugs thank you.

This will be my first blog in I believe a little over a year! That is preposterous, and will not be tolerated any longer.

So I come to you today from my bedroom, where typing has become a little difficult because I have just gotten acrylic nails and I am not used to the extraness that it gives my fingers. Therefore, if you see a randome letter in a word that is not supposed to be there, please ignore it and move on.

I do have some new pictures to post, which I think speak for themselves, but if you do not speak picture language or the language of me - then here is an explaination. It will be brief.

Erika(the girl who is not me in these pictures) and I both had a day (yesterday) where we were not scheduled to be slaves for the man. This obviously meant that we had a free day to catch up on homework and do other things that were not homework.

I would like to interject here though and say in my defense, that I actually was fully prepared and ready to do some major studying this day.

But SOMEONE (Erika and my zany counterpart that lives inside me) decided it would be better to go out to eat, get nails done, buy hilarious yet truthful shirts, and go out to eat again before even making the attempt (thats all it was) to study. Oh well, whats done is done and cannot be undone. I had alot of fun though and I feel like it was exactly what the doctor ordered.

If the doctor were some sort of eccentric life coach.

These are pictures from my new apartyment! The wonderfully beautiful women in the pictures are two of my lovely roommates, Meredith and Gwen! We have an amazing balcony and view of the mountains right outside of our condo. The kitchen is splediforous and our living room is HUGE! I frickin love it!

Natalia's B-Day!

I went to Natalias b-day get-together at Night Shotz. It was sooo much fun. :D we just hung out ate food and played pool. I suck at it by the way. lol

Picture scavenger hunt

Alright ladies and gents. This is our FHE picture scavenger hunt. So here is the run down of pictures. This first one up here was "find a sign and do what it says", we we are gathering. The next one is we had to take a picture with a red head, so the wendy's girl would do. :D (Jaime is upon my shoulders. lol) then we had to take a picture of something we would drool over - and that was mike and his truck. but he is shunning us because of his engagment to another woman (no joke haha). AHAHAHA! the one with caitie basically flashing an unsuspecting citizen and student of byu idaho is our "awkward moment" picture. (she had on a shirt, dont worry.)
Next we have "the perfect date" which is a bunch of us girls and ben going to jensens jewlers. typical byu perfect date. jk - but seriously. the two after that are our "things a stalker would do" and ben is in the trash can starring longingly at jaime. but really, who wouldnt.
and last but certainly not least, is ben performing a scene from a disney movie. which disney movie you ask? High School Musical 3 - zac efrons emo angst song. he is torn between basketball and theater! what ever will he choose! and i think ben portrays those emotions beautifully.
