Still Don't Know What To Say...

Once again, I don't know what to say, so I'm just going to say whatever I feel like it okay?! I had a good week this past one. Like I said, on Monday I was involved in the Spring Sing singing Zippidee-doo-dah...ya that's a funny story! Well I guess you could say that it was a lot bigger then I thought it would be. Let's put it this way, my whole stake came and filled up the whole De Jong Concert Hall. It was crazy! And my ward was a little unorganized and we didn't know what we were doing so we kind of just threw something together real fast. All these wards had these big skits planned but we didn't really know what we were doing. All is well though family and friends! It all turned out okay in the end. Disney Idol went great! I threw together a quick little costume in the bathroom (I found some eyeliner and penciled in some feckles and blacked my tooth out and put in some pig tails) and I got up on stage and did my thang. It was rather funny in the end. I won the contest too so I felt rather good about my performance, and I got a good report from the "Judge" which was sweet! Anyways, that was fun. Then I came home and we had a party for Suzanne, so it wasn't likely that I was going to even START on my 8 page paper that was due on Wednesday, so I started it on Tuesday...and spent 13 long hours on it straight! Good times, good times! That's the most exciting things that happened to me this week. This weekend I stayed home from St. George (all my roommates pranced off with some friends in the ward and went there) so I could write my talk. I still had fun without them don't worry. I did some dishes by myself, I danced around by myself, I cooked for myself, I laughed by myself...okay, it was no fun without them. I missed them a lot. It was good though because I had some quality time to spend alone with myself and write my talk, which by the way went really good! I learned a lot about the topic. I really want to learn more about it so I think I'm going to take a class here about the life of the Savior (maybe New Testiment you think?). I like church history and religious history stuff a lot! I think I'm going to go far with that kind of stuff. Like I love my LDS History class that I have here with Susan Black! She's amazing! I want to be just like her when I grow up. Except I think that would be impossible since I don't have a photo copy memory like she does. Geez, that woman remembers everything! Well anyways, that's my life story for this week. Hope you enjoyed it! And I'll talk about my life again next week! I've enclosed some pictures of our folk dance costumes. We are performing in a couple weeks. The dance that we are doing is Scottish (hence the Kilts). Puujee posted these pictures of me on facebook (she took them on Wednesday at our costume fitting session thing). They make us all look really busty and large boned...

Annie said...

Mary that was so fun to read. I really feel like I know what is going on with you now. You seriously have an awesome life. So much uplifting and enriching stuff...dance, school and friends. Really, these are times you will always look back upon with fondness.
Hey, do you have any down time this summer in between China and school? I'd love to have you come out and stay with us for a week or so.

Annie said...

Oh, P.S. I'm glad your talk went well. What was your topic? Church history really is interesting stuff. I really enjoy it myself.

Annie said...

Ha! I just started reading your post below and found out what your topic was. Silly me. Very cool to talk on the last week of Christ.

Annie said...

What was your favorite thing you learned in preparing for the talk?

Annie said...

Hey this is fun...I think I'll keep leaving comments that way when you go to your blog and see a gazillian comments you're going to know that you are loved and very popular and very special! :)

Annie said...

Working at Jamba Juice? Really? That's awesome! Do you work at the one on campus in the Wilk? You go girl! When I worked at the drive-in Afton I used to always hum in my head that song, "I work hard for my money...dadum, dadum, oh hard for my money..." It seriously kept me going. Funny hun!

Annie said...

Mary, that is so cool that you get to teach tap to the Chinese. What an awesome experience ahead of you.

Annie said...

Oh and so cool that you are friends with Puujee. I had a ton of Mongolian in my MTC districts when I taught at the MTC. The Mongolian people are seriously so awesome. Very special people!

Annie said...

Okay, what else can I comment about to make your comment number go out the roof?...hum, well, Drew is watching his favorite show right now: The Bachelor. Seriously, he loves it. Weirdo!

Rooster said...

Annie lies so bad. I do not like the bachelor. I was just minding my own business eating pops and she starts defaming my name. Weirdo. Anyhow, my real favorite shoe is LOST.......Ok.

Rooster said...

I'm sorry I don't know what got into me...I really do love the Bachelor. I have dreams that one day I will be selected for that show and have 20 Annie look alikes surrounding me with their love and kisses.

Rooster said...

That was Annie posing as me. Seriously...grow up! Thats identify theft you identity thief wannabe.

Rooster said...

Please forgive me for insulting your most perfect, beautiful and very smart sister. She is the love of my lfe and I would never insult her EVER. I really do LOVE the Bachelor.

Annie said...

Annie is a piglet

Annie said...

I learned a great lesson tonight: One should NEVER reveal their own password in the name of fairness. Drew just asked me for it and said, "Oh come on, it's only fair!" Jerk!

Annie said...

Alright, last comment for the night:

Never mess with a Sicilian when death is on the line.

Annie said...

Well okay the second to last comment. We've gotta break 20 at least.

Annie said...

Did you know that if you punch your eye, it will hurt? Really! I just tried it.

Annie said...

Okay, enough of this silliness. Tuning out for the night. Love you!

Rooster said...

This is the real Drew. Annie is downstairs trying to figure out my password. This may be my last post depending on how big a fight we are in. I just want you to know that I hate the bachelor and love MASH. Also..Annie smells like a skunk and would look like flower from bambi if I spray -painted a white stripe in her hair.

Annie said...

Okay, I guess I deserved that. I love my hunny. Isn't he fun and nice and very cool? Maybe that will get him to put the computer down and go to bed. I'm always such a peacemaker. So passive, submissive and humble.
