While The Roommates Are Away, We Shall Play.

So like I said, two of my roommates went home this weekend. While they were gone, Crystal and I decided to cause some chaos. We took what Amanda said seriously, "When I come back the house is going to be a mess..." Let me just show you a glimpse of what it looked like...








Don't worry those are IBC Rootbeer bottles I promise! Our poor fish even had a fork in their bowl. Lets just say that it didn't take long for it to look that way. We woke up at 11a.m. on Monday, went shopping at Walmart for about 2 hours it seemed, then wreaked some havoc. The rest of the day we finished watching all the Harry Potter movies. We had a Potter marathon this weekend. It was awesome. I dreamed of being a wizard/witch and casting spells! We even wrapped our blankets around us like capes and grabbed spoons to use as our wands, then ran outside casting spells. Call us crazy but we had fun. Amanda arrived home around 7:30p.m. Crystal and I were laying on the couch watching Harry Potter. Amanda said, "Wow how long did it take you guys to do this? It looks good." Ivy got home later and walked in and said, "Looks like you guys had a party." I replied with, "Oh yeah, it was awesome." We may be good at making messes but we are even better at cleaning up. While HP 7 Part 1 was playing, Crystal and I cleaned up our mess. It looks as if nothing ever happened. Except for the plastic bag full of Rootbeer bottles sitting in the corner...

Sunday night Crystal and I made BBQ chicken wings for dinner. They were awesome! She is the chef of the roommate family. She makes things all the time. Like from a recipe rather than a bag that you add water to, like I do.



My teammates and I hangout a lot together. Often times we are found in the activity center playing table tennis. Tennis players playing table tennis? Yes. We walk to the gas station and get drinks, then walk around campus a couple times, then go play table tennis. Typical routine, but never gets old. We have so much fun together! Like I said, we are a family! This is Patricia and Kayla competing against each other.

The above picture was posted on Facebook by Patricia. Of course she had to add the one of me blinking, we even took another one because of it too! Oh well...from left to right it goes, Kayla, Patricia, The Gila Monster mascot, Maja, then of course me. (Read previous posts to know where these people are from and how to say their name.) This was after the volleyball game on Friday. We love going as a team to support!

Today my best friend Katie Wetz and I Skyped for the first time. It was awesome. I miss my friends back home. But just know I haven't forgotten about you or replaced you. I will be home soon enough.

In closing I would like to share some random pictures...

These two spray paint stencils are right outside the institute. Weird but funny.


Last night it began to rain. I was starting to miss it. This is what the stormy night sky looked like. Awesome right?
