Come what may and love it!


So this happened last sunday, but I think that it's too funny, and I think one of the main reasons I have this picture was to post it.
The toilet had been pretty finicky, but it decided to really go outta control. It was what I got for being up absurdly (well not too much) late. So I was standing in half an inch to an inch of water. But the picture's just sad because you really can't tell anything about the water, even if you zoom in. Except that the towels are obviously soaked. It was nuts.
I had to yell from the bathroom to wake up my roommate. She was really out of it, it's frankly amazing I was able to get this picture because she was barely functioning. She thought I should leave it for the morning. But don't worry, I cleaned it all up. We don't own a mop because our kitchen and bathroom floors are just so small and we have zero storage space. So I had to mop up all the water with the towels. Then I bleach watered the floor, then rinsed it with water, then dried it. It was intense!
But honestly I couldn't stop laughing, because it was so preposterous. And getting angry was only going to make me, well, angry. So I decided that it really was hysterical, let's be realistic. So I decided to have the attitude at Elder Wirthlin's suggestion, "Come what may and love it."

What a crazy week!

So I need to just go to sleep. I am tired, but not entirely sleepy at the moment, so I decided to blog for a minute. Sam got home from his mission this afternoon, so I got to talk to him for like 40 minutes, and I get to see him in a week and a half! So that was really exciting. And my friends and I are all caught up on that tv show Heroes! Wow, it's gonna be intense waiting a whole week in between episodes. But I know I can handle it.
Yep, that's about it, good night!

Oh yeah, and so weird! Last night, to watch Heroes, I missed the ward activity, which was dodge ball, so I didn't really wanna go that bad anyway. But that was kinda weird when I thought about it later, I'm not sure I've missed a ward/institute activity since I've been here. But oh well I guess. They said it was fun and that they had enough people, so that's good.

Am I 19 again?!

So we were gonna play games at our apartment tonight. But we didn't really get the word out very well. So we didn't get very many people over, which was fine. No big whoop right? Anyhow, we were dumb and there were five of us girls, and we wanted to do something really fun, and some freakishly ridiculous plan surfaced, and somehow we followed through with it.

5 boys in our ward did a Karaoke of Backstreet Boys song 'As Long As You Love Me' and we decided that we'd take a video of us imitating them. Don't ask me how that came up, it's preposterous! So we proceeded to go through it once, and then here's the final product. I also am posting my recording of them doing it at the Karaoke night. We actually used a different copy of their song because we used one that another person posted on facebook. But it's pretty close.

So anyhow, I feel like I'm 19 again with us doing that, it was crazy. We even sorta tried to dress like them, in case you couldn't pick up on that...just ask Michelle. This is totally the sort of thing that we would (or did) do when we were 19!

Especially how the boys ended up finding out about the video. We had made some brownies, so we called them, (4 of the 5 boys were at the same place playing games) and brought them over the brownies in costume. Of course we acted like nothing was weird, the one who is dating one of us girls was just freaked out or worried that he shouldn't eat the brownies. They thought we might've done something to them. But when we left, Alessandra, the red head in the video, said, "So maybe you guys should look at your facebook." And we booked it out of there! It was really funny.

There's supposedly a video of retaliation they're going to post, but they haven't yet. It's takes forever to upload these videos! Of course they're like 3 minutes each...haha.

Good night!
