keepin the fans updated

aahh another semester over and done with. i suppose i can now officially claim to be a junior in college. so that's weird.
anyway...here are some high(and low)lights of the end of the semester:
  • highlight: getting the heck out of provo for a night with free dinner in salt lake. one of spencer's mission companions was getting married and had a pre-reception dinner. originally spencer was going to take his old flame shaneiqua, but lucky for me she bailed last minute. something about a freak acrylic-nail accident. good times were had.(and of course we had to take some pictures in the area. and then spencer waxed barbaric.)
  • highlight: classes ENDING!
  • lowlight: finals...shoot me in the face. always stressful, always resulting in sleep deprivation. and for part of one of my french finals i had to write a pretty decent size research paper (in french). i swear a year of my life was taken with every page i had to write.
  • highlight: finishing finals...one of the best feelings in the world-definitely a relief
  • saying adios to the roommates. goodbyes are always kind of lame. the foxy ladies of apartment 326
  • (holli, the now-married melissa, moi, megan, katie, ellen)
  • highlight: roadtrip to arizonaaaaaaaaa with spencer! i know what you're thinking- 12 hours in a car is never good. but it was quite an adventure and i enjoyed every minute. even though coming down through utah we missed the cross-over turns in three different places. then when we tried to cross over to the 89 at hurricane, we found out that we would have to pay $25 just to drive through zion's park...those nazis...so we had to turn around and find another route which ended up being a plus because we got to visit the polygamists in colorado city. always a pleasure to see them. the rest of the drive went quite smoothly, with the exception of a dead dog in the road. and spencer yelling, "SKIN WALKERS COME GET US!" out the window as we drove through the navajo reservation. i was just waiting for something to mysteriously fly out of the desert and slash our tires and kill us all.
  • lowlight: gaining 17 pounds on the roadtrip from all the junk consumed. peanut m&ms, doritos, gummy worms, cookies, dr. pepper, and gatorade. i had a serious food baby going on.
  • highlight: being home :)
  • lowlight: more goodbyes :(
  • highlight: ohh...i don't know, maybe that i'm going to paris on MONDAY?!

I'm glad that you made it home safely and no skin walkers got you. Have fun in Paris!

Yes ... you look cute together indeed ... still no explanations? Hmmm ... the mystery is killing me? Did Amy take a road trip with some mysterious guy who is out to kill her ... no, is he her long lost brother whom she never chose to disclose his identity out of fear of embarrassment ... no, or maybe he is her friend with benefits? Shall I ever know?
