Jessica's "Daily Affirmation"

I thought this was a good lesson that anyone could learn from...don't be afraid to give yourself a little boost in the mirror every once in a while. It can really help!!

Roommate Photoshoot

This photoshoot was our one last hoorah before we all depart for the next year and a half. If you didn't know, Suzanne is leaving on a mission to Rome, Italy May 26th and Lanae is leaving for a performing mission in Nauvoo at the beginning of May and will be gone for 4 months so it's going to be a while before we are together again. This year has seriously been one of my favorite years here at school. Us 4 girls got so close, even closer than we had already been before, since we had lived with each other for 2 years previous to this school year. I love these girls so much and I'm going to miss being all together. We created a sisterhood that will never be broken. These pictures were taken in front of our dear house. We love the house and the ward we're in and we developed some good times here. It only makes sense that we would take the pictures in front of "da howse" as we like to call it.

Clogging Final

So this is finals week. Suzanne and I took a clogging class together this semester and for our clogging final we had to choreograph and perform a one and a half minute clogging dance. This is our final! It was so fun to choreograph together. Suz and I work well together. The story of our dance is that we are two love struck little girls who love all boys basically. It was really fun to perform. I'm going to write what we say b/c it's kind of hard to hear.

Here goes...
Suzanne: Maryyyyyyy
Mary: Whaaaat!!
Suzanne: Look what Bobby gave me today! (a note that says "Do you like me? Check yes or no")
Mary: Oh my gosh!!! He totally loves you!!!!
Suzanne: Yes, he totally totally loves me!
Suzanne: I love boys! I love boys!
Mary: No I love them more!
Suzanne: I love boys! I love boys!
Mary: I love them more!
Suzanne: I love boys!
Mary: I LOVE THEM MORE! (points at Suzanne with a stern look)
Suzanne: I think I'm going to marry him
Mary: You know your hair would look so pretty in a veil
Suzanne: It really would?
Mary: Ya, it really would, it really would! Ya! ya!
Mary: haha your hair would look really pretty in a veeiiiiill!

LET THE DANCE BEGIN!!!!

Hare Krishna COLOR FEST

This weekend we went to the Indian temple in Spanish Fork for the festival of colors...this event is HUGE!! There was more than 20,000 people that attended. People came from all over!! It was crazy! Basically what happens is everyone gets a bunch of colored chalk and throws it at each other. Yup, that's it...that's what everyone comes for! But it's amazing!!! Here's the pics!

On our way to the festival...we had to park far away and walk a great distance to get there because there was so many cars...traffic was crazy!

I found some play-do on the side of the road...it was still in it's case...so I picked it up and played with it on the walk over. Everyone made fun of me for it!

This is Andy...Andy is our friend...he comes over all the time...basically Andy is one of the girls...he grew up with 8 sisters...now he has 6 girlfriends...He comes with us every where...he's even coming with us on our girl's camp out trip (I told him the only way he could go with us is if he brought his own tent)...yup, this is Andy













Ok let me just say that at one point on this little adventure I thought I was going to die...literally my life flashed before my eyes. It was crazy! So let me just preface this. There's one point where everyone crowded together and threw their chalk up in the air at the same time. With more than a 1,000 people pressed together in a crowd and us being in the dead center...I couldn't breath guys!!!! It was scary! And it went pitch black when everyone threw their chalk up. It was a rather frightening experience. But it all turned out ok. I'm still alive and breathing.
