the things finals will do to ya

End of semester is a stressful time. Trying to cram in last minute studying and wrapping everything up for semester can get defiantly get to you. It can even make you do some pretty crazy things...

The other day i was studying for my math final and trying to finish my take home part of the test. Brin and i were home working away and it was a very productive day. We got a little hungry and thought a grilled cheese sandwich sounds really nice. We got to work making our lunch and in no time had our sandwich grillin away. I tried to mention to Brin that hers was getting a little bit toasty and she said that's the way she liked it so i didn't think anything more about it. I turned my back to get something out of the cupboard and before i knew it her sandwich was smoking all over and our fire alarm was yelling at us!!! What do we do!!??  ha well Brin picks up the pan and starts waving it back and forth and I'm running around like a chicken with my head cut off not having any idea what to do. Good thing Ky and Braden were home to save the day. Braden came running out to our rescue and fanned off the smoke alarm and had us open the door to fan out the apartment. Our first time burning anything and we survived!! Thank you Braden.

Monday night Ky was fed up with finals. To be quite honest i was too. Studying for six hours can get real old. We needed a pick me up so we headed to walmart to get a carton of ice cream. Trying to decide on one flavor for all three of us is complicated so of course we all needed our own ha. Brin and i settled on a smaller sized carton by Ky went for the big guy. Even if it means gaining a freshman 15 we defiantly felt better after.

On our way to walmart!!




P.S. I did not mean to make this hideous face!!

Us enjoying our amazing ice cream!! :)



Were so close we even feed each other!! (Brin looks a little excited to get her bite ha!!)



Wow Ky when did you acquire such an appetite??



And then tonight after being fed up with yet another six hour study session we all headed to Texas roadhouse to celebrate Chrissy's 20th birthday!! It was a nice break and some delicious food. Happy Birthday cute girl!! Thanks for letting us share your special day with you!! Love ya!!

Me, Brin, and Liss enjoying our dinner!! Love these girls they are so darling!! :)


Ky decided to look beautiful like always and she wore her heels. Walking up the stairs was a bit of a challenge for her so she needed some help so i volunteered. Gotta love that girl!! What would i do without my amazing roommates during such a hectic week!! Love you girls!!

A pretty great day.

Today was a great day.
It started out with my last class of Human Development (glad the class is over, sad to leave the people though). I have made some pretty great friends and am sad to not see them as much anymore. We had to take a picture to celebrate us making it through the class together.


Marci and Mckaylee thanks for being such cute girls!!

When i got home from class Brin was headed on a run to the temple and i gladly joined in. Who on earth would pass up a chance to get to see the temple and walk on the beautiful grounds. I kinda have a soft spot for this temple since it is the place that my parents chose to be married in and because of that temple i am able to be with my family forever!! Brin and i ALWAYS have great talks about everything which is normally what happens with your best friend but i just love getting to know her more and more everyday and am sad to be away from her for three weeks for Christmas break. We made it back from the beautiful four mile run in no time to see that the neighbors weren't home.

Ok quick story, we have never met our across the hall neighbors before which is sad of us but between the two apartments we collect a ton of newspapers. It started off that we would just kick them back and forth to each other randomly throughout the day until one day they were all just gone. Thinking nothing about the newspapers again until Tuesday night at midnight when we get a horrifying knock on our door or should i say pounding and the doorbell was rung at least 20 times. Brin and i ran out to see who it was only to find no one there but a pile of newspapers laying there for us to find. Ha bring it on boys this is war.

Ok so we got back from our run and decided it was payback time. We started off by taping newspaper all over their door and then hanging some of the rolls from the ledge of the door frame. We posted a sign that said take your dang newspapers, rang the door bell, and ran. A surprised neighbor opened the door and laughed. Yep their payback came later last night wrapped in a box saying merry Christmas but i would defiantly have to say that ours was so much better!!



Their door after the damage had been done!!


Brin and i ready to ring the door bell!!!


Me hanging newspapers from the door!!


After we recovered from our intense payback we showered and got ready to go to an early showing of the movie New Years Eve. Some company was putting it on so it was free but you had to come early. Brin and i arrived about an hour and a half early to ensure our seats. After being scanned down front and back to make sure we had no cameras we sat in our seats and played a few games of 7 little words to keep us entertained. I noticed that lots of people coming in had 3-D glasses and Brin and i forgot to get some. A girl came and sat by us with her friends and i asked her if she had gotten some glasses. She said no but that she would run and get some from all of us. The movie started and Brin and I pushed on the huge 3-D glasses to let the magic begin. About half way through the movie i realized no "magic" was happening. I hadn't noticed any 3-D parts so far, and to make matters worse when i took them off the movie was actually a whole lot clearer. I leaned over to Brin and told her that i didn't think it was even a 3-D movie so she looked around to see if anyone else was having problems with their glasses. Instead we found that out of the whole entire movie theatre we were the only two dumb enough to still have our glasses on. Yep were geniuses!!!



Oh well we at least got a pretty dang cute picture out of it and some laughs!!!

We were a little starving when we got done so we splurged and bought us some Arby's for dinner. And a night like this just couldn't be complete without a Walmart run right? Right! We got a few essentials (mostly milk for Brin) and headed home. Not without having our picture taken first though. We spotted some crazy Christmas decorations and had to try them in our hair! What crazy girls!!



All in all i say it was a pretty great day.


 

Lets get Wacky!!

For the longest time I have wanted the card game wacky 6 to play here at school. I asked for it for Christmas and my mom found it online but i have to wait to open it until Christmas :(. The other night us good roommates decided we better go to FHE but like usual we were late and then we were matching so of course we HAD to take some pictures.

Us in the car with out watching head wraps and high ponie tails.



Showing off out nice gloves to keep us warm on our short trek to the church!


Ky and I sittin shotgun together!!


Well we barge into the church giggling and laughing so loud like usual and find that everyone is standing right there listening to a girl give a devotional ha ops. But we broke off into groups to play some games and we got into the group to play Wacky 6!!! I was so excited and Ky and i were a great tag team. We pretty much dominated everyone and cant wait to play again after Christmas. I sure love my roommates.

33 days later...

So you know how in November the boys don't shave for the whole month and call it Noshember. They grow nasty facial hair and have an excuse not to shave for a whole month. Well sometime in October Brin and i got a little competition going on to try out Noshember on our legs. Well we started a few days early but we made it. Tonight at midnight Brin and i got in our spandex and started a bath. We sat on down and went to work weed whacking our legs. I feel like a woman now. You have no idea how hard it is to plan an outfit around your legs. Sundays were a pain in the butt, boots, leggings or tights, and long skirts were my best friend. Well i think tomorrow i will go hot tubbing since i am now able to yippee!! My dad was so upset at me that i was growing leg hair like a man so don't worry dad I'm all shaved up now!!

Here are some weekly shots of my legs. ( I am slightly embarrassed that these are on facebook and my blog, so please do not judge me!!!)






After the big shaving!!! Oh it feels sooo good to have girl legs again!!


Preparing to get down to business!!


Oh look how nasty the collection of leg hair got on our shower wall!!


I will never do Noshember again, look how happy i am to shave!!!


Yes we were soooo excited to finally start looking like girls again, good bye leg hair!!



Soooo Sick!!


Well Noshember has come and gone and i am proud to be a participant of it this year but do not worry, it was a one time thing. I will NEVER do this again!! But it defiantly makes for a great blog post!!

Just a little Christmas spirit!

We were all feeling a little blue since its soon Christmas and we aren't home to enjoy all the Christmas decorations at home so we decided to decorate our humble abode. We started by taking some star lights and hanging them above our kitchen cabinets. They looked real nice especially since half of them weren't working. Then we hung some ornament balls all over our ceiling since we had no tree yet. Our stockings are all hung up under the windowsill. The next day one of Brins friends came to Logan bringing with her our lovely Christmas tree. One branch was hanging off of the tree and half of the lights were working. Our ornaments were old child ornaments which makes it even cuter. My favorite is the care bear section on the right side. Not going to lie it look a little like white trash but that's what makes it funny and one of a kind. Next we got on Pinterest to see how else we can decorate our already cluttery home and found a way cute peppermint wreath that we just had to try making. Well we defiantly have the spirit of Christmas going on in our apartment. I can't wait for Christmas. Its the most wonderful time of the year.

Brin and I hanging our star lights!!


Our cute Christmas tree!!



And i thought i wasn't crafty, look at this wreath we made!!


P.S. It isn't a Christmas decoration but Brin did decorate my door with sticky notes telling me she loves me after i had a bummer day. Its off of our favorite you tube video boys will be girls with our own special little twist. She brightened my day when i walked into my room and found these notes. Gotta love my best friend.



 P.S.S We have wanted to do this since being here and tonight we finally did!!! We took a picture on the little kid statue outside of the education building and boy do we fit in!! I love college!
