It's finals week.
I only have 3 finals - French, Humanities and Modern Dance. French and Humanities I have to majorly study for, and for Modern, I have yet to finish my choreography or start my written final. Bah. It's not too bad though. Well, I hope not. The actual studying isn't that bad - it's just getting me to do it. I decided to update all my loyal blog readers on my week. It was pretty crazy busy. I was finishing up extra credit and papers and projects for my classes.
Wednesday was Leah's birthday and me, Trev, Landon, Nat, Leah, Natalie, Becca, Emily and Brad went out to Chili's for dinner. Soo good! Then we went back to #4 and had cake and ice cream, and a bunch more people came over, like Nathan, Brenden, Kyle, Amy, Garyn, Lili etc. Leah got her fishies for her birthday! Dolce, Gabbana and Esquire Lamar Georgie Landon. (Such a big name for such a little guy! Haha.) It was a super fun night.

Let's see... Thursday, I went up to SLC with the MG's. We walked around Temple Square and got hot chocolate. It was so great! I love the MG's so much, they truly do save my sanity. And as you all know, I absolutely LOVE the Salt Lake Temple. I just feel such a strong connection to it. I love it.
It was such a good night. Friday was a reading day. That equals SLEEPING IN. Oh my goodness, it was so great to sleep in. I didn't get out of bed until like 11:30. It was great.
I went to the temple with Sara, Corinne and Lili. I hadn't been in a few weeks, so it was really great to go again. We go at pretty much the same time every Friday, and we've made friends with the regulars. There's a man who is super happy all the time, he's so great. There's the baptistry coordinator, who will crack jokes to us sometimes. There's the sweet old man who is usually a witness who looks like he's asleep most of the time. There's the woman who is very on top of everything and makes sure that everyone follows the rules. There's the young man who sometimes baptizes us, that furrows his brow when he says the prayer, it's so cute. There's the woman who brings in her handicapped daughter to do baptisms, they're both the sweetest things. I feel like I'm going home to my Temple family whenever I go there :) It's so great. Friday night me, Dani, Garyn and Andrew went and saw the Broadway version of A Christmas Carol. It was hilarious. We were laughing the whole time.. But you probably had to be there. Later that night me, Nat, Brad, JJ, Tyson, Andrew and Dani watched the Dark Knight in the lounge. That movie is incredible. Then after me, JJ, Nat and Brad stayed and talked until like 3 am. Saturday morning, me, Mal, and Lili got together to make our presidency Christmas treats to take to the girls in our ward. We made pretzels with hugs melted on them, and red and green M&Ms in the middle. We talked, and danced around and sang to Christmas songs and it was snowing. I really felt like Christmas was here. I love those girls, they're so amazing. Nat cut my hair on Saturday, to even out my A-line. Later that night I went and hung out with Landon and Riley for a little bit, then I went and hung out with Taylor and (a different) Riley. We watched the new X-Files movie. It was.... weird. We'll leave it at that.
Yesterday was Sunday, and after church, I played a bunch of Rock Band with Kyle, Garyn, Sam and Jay.... And we watched Fletch! - an old Chevy Chase movie. It was pretty hilarious. So, like I said, this week has been crazy. But it's also been lots of fun. I go home on Friday, and I'm excited to spend time with Mom and Chari :) Charity lost her first tooth! She called me up all excited.

And as a finale to this blog post - I ran across this great article yesterday. http://cityguides.msn.com/citylife/cityarticle.aspx?cp-documentid=15819667>1=24000 It's about a Chuck E Cheese's in Wisconsin, and it totally cracked me up. I doubt it will be as funny to some one who hasn't worked there... But you might still enjoy it at least a little bit.
