I wish I had a better scholarship to BSU.
Or just that my KFC one would transfer to BSU.
I love Boise.
Lakeside was really enjoyable. Taryn didn't come, but Aaron and Mel were awesome to spend time with.
On the way there. So pretty.
My little Aaron :)
MATEO'S!!!! With Mel, Aaron, and my Dad. I love this place.
Mel and I at the DQ in Payson
Mi padre y yo.
I hung out with Abbey and Nicki- we watched Knight and Day which was a good movie. We also went shopping, but didn't buy anything.
Then the next day I hung out with Camri, Olecya, Tahna, Stephanie, Autumn, and Summer. We went to lunch at El Farols. Then I hung out with Camri some more and her dad fixed Sir G so he doesn't squeak anymore!!!
Its fantastic. I also hung out with Kelci. We tried to take awkward photos and send out a Christmas card. Most people didn't understand that they are supposed to be awkward, so instead it just looks like we're smiling stupid. :)
Note the props. A live cat, a snowman sign, a fake dog. And the shirts. Reindeer, Santa, and snowmen.
It also snowed while I was in Lakeside. (I don't understand... The snow just follows me. It snowed in Mesa tonight too! Ridiculous.)
Christmas was fantastic. It was little Luna's first Christmas with my family. She's adorable. She got a blanket from the Prestwich cousins and a brush from Mel. I got some AMAZING UA gear. I love it. My mom made the hoodie and the pants-- she's so talented.
Luna and her blanket
New pajamas!!! :)
From the Flannel Fairy. I love flannel. and plaid. and pajamas.
LUNA!!!! :)
My wonderful hoodie and sweatpants!
After presents were opened and cousins were seen I FLEW TO BOISE!!!!!!!!!!! I love Boise.
My flight was delayed an hour. So my layover in SLC was cut VERY close (I had about 10 minutes to get to the other plane, I was freaking out- but it worked out fine). I met a very nice lady on the plane from SLC to Boise. She owns and manages a bed and breakfast. I wanted to do that until I was like 14. It was great hearing her perspective on it. I'm glad I changed my life plans.
I was so extremely happy to see Wade. It was great. His apartment is really cute. Unfortunately Adrian stayed in Lakeside longer than planned so I didn't get to see him, but its been nice catching up with Wade and Sam and meeting new people and seeing old friends.
We went thrift store shopping, mall meandering, campus touring, we've killed a lot of zombies, ice skating, eaten a lot of delicious food, watched more movies than I have the rest of the year combined... Its been great.
I got to see Lishane and Becca Helms. They're so sweet. I missed them! They went ice skating with us, but left before the group picture. I also got to see Sarah-- I hadn't seen her since 7th grade. (Back when I was bald- which Becca didn't remember haha.)
Wade installed Left for Dead and Left for Dead 2 on my computer. :) I love them. Seriously, I never thought I would enjoy gaming as much as I do. Especially on Steam- we've played with Adrian and Alex a few times. Its just so enjoyable.
I have met Kelsey- she brought Wade and I creme brulee. Chris- he's funny, there was immediate animosity between us. So we fought and insulted each other the whole time. But I always won the wit contest. ;) I met Bo, Wade's friend from EA. He's a giant (hahahah, a lady at IHOP actually called him that). I also met Tim, who actually graduated from Blue Ridge the year I was a freshman. He seemed familiar but I didn't really know him. He has a G6. We rode around in it. Love.
I've had so much fun. Idaho is just so pretty. There are trees everywhere. And a river. How fantastic is that? Running water! :)
Friendship Bridge! Right next to campus on the greenbelt :)
The Blue and Orange store. I fell in love right then.
Sam, me, Wade, Chris. At the Boise Co-op, which is a really cool place that I am fond of.
Although, I hate some pasta and I was allergic to something in it. Hah.
The Greenbelt by campus. :) :) TREES!!!!
Driving down a random road. In the G6. Its so beautiful.
Wade and I on Christmas!!! :)
Sam, Chris, me, Jared, Wade- ice skating.
The G6. So lovely. We rode with the top down for a bit. It was cold. But Wade and Chris let me have the front seat, it had a butt warmer. That was convenient.
Sam, me, Chris at Flying Pie after ice skating
Jared and I at Flying Pie!
I love ice skating, but I'm really terrible at it. I found that I do better if I am forced to do it on my own. I only fell twice (once I brought Chris down with me. hahahah).
I was also given insight into how other people perceive me. Chris kept calling me a hipster (doesn't fit). And everyone acted surprised when they found out that I like L4D. Also, it was assumed that I am a theater major (probably just by association though, these people know Wade..).
When we were at the pawn shop on Monday this old man came up to us and said "You boys [Wade and Chris] are lucky to be around such pretty girls [Sam and I]." Chris then put his arm around me and told the old man that he knew. At that moment Chris and my relationship became solidified. Incessant mocking and insults, irony, condescending looks, pet names in British accents [dahling and dear], and sarcasm at every corner. It was fun. We were likened to an old married couple. Chris lives in Oregon now.
In conclusion (ha ;) my english teacher would kill me), I love Boise. I want to move here. KALEE JUST SHOWED UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Gotta jet.
