Busy Busy Busy

Life is so busy! That's just a fact. My bed is put back together though, and there is no more hole in the wall. It's pretty stinking exciting. My bed is back in place, and it's amazing. I'm not sleeping on the floor anymore.

I have been super-duper busy with crazy amounts of practicing and reading an article for English (I ranted about that in the "my dreams" tab). I still love my English class an awful lot, and all the people are AMAZING, but it has been a lot of work outside of class this week. They are the best. We hung out a couple of Fridays ago to play capture the flag, watch Tangled, and drink hot chocolate. Capture the Flag at Porter Park was lots of fun in the dark. One thing about me, I am usually the kind of person that just stands there in games like capture the flag. I just stand there and pretty much cheer on my teem mates while acting like in some other life I could maybe have the chance of intimidating the other team's members. That's me. I am one of those people that just stand there and say "good job". It's actually pretty pathetic. This time, it was remarkably different though. I somehow got over to the other team's side, and I found the flag. No one on my team had been able to find it yet. I was just glad that I found it. It gets better though. I was able to, through some miracle, bring it back to our side. Yeah, it was pretty intense. I have NEVER done that before! It was one of the most exciting moments of my life. Not really, but it was still awesome.

On a totally different note, I am closer to getting my major changed. It really can't come fast enough. Several hours a day in the practice room is taking a toll on me. It is making me hate the thing that I love the most: music. That's just a crime. Because of this, I am ready to take my life in another direction. Web design is calling my name, and I am ready to answer the call. I had an appointment last Friday to work on changing my major, and hopefully I will have it changed by the end of this week.

My wonderful roommate Emily has sadly been sick these past few days. She has had a nasty cold, and I feel so bad for her. Hopefully we can get her feeling better before her birthday this Saturday. It wouldn't be any fun to be sick on your birthday! Kami and I keep on teasing her by telling her that we have something up our sleeve for her birthday, which we do. She keeps on saying that she is so afraid of what we could have planned. It is going to be fun when she sees the surprise. I just hope she is feeling better by then.

One of the best parts about this week that I almost forgot about was what we did for our Family Home Evening thing recently. We played the game "Assassin" for a week, and it was amazing and intense. I was SO PARANOID!!!!! Every single one of my friends can testify of that. For those of you who don't know what this game is, it's a Roman Colosseum based game. Each person in the group is given the name of another person in the group that they have to track down and "kill" we pinned clothespins on each other to "kill" our targets. Once a person kills their target, they then begin to chase the target of the person that they just killed. This goes on until there are two people left, and they fight it out. Kami, my roommate, won the entire game. Another game with a much larger group of people should start here this week, and I am so excited to play that game!

Oh, and you can tell people are having fun at the store when you see this when grocery shopping:
