who?

so tonight we got all who-ified and went to a dr. seuss birthday party. i decided i wouldn't mind living in whoville. because being a who is rather enjoyable.
some of the night's festivities included a donut (hanging from the ceiling) eating contest. as you can see from the various awkward moments caught on film it was not as easy as you'd think it would be.
the rest of the party pretty much consisted of a group of about 5 or 6 of us dancing while everyone else in the apartment stood around and coveted our moves.

bleedin' blue in black 'n white.

funny story: we went to the home opener BYU basketball game last night. we watched through the first period (which seemed ridiculously long to me), then sat through the break between the first and the second period (which also seemed ridiculously long to me), and then the second period happened (which continued along the trend of being ridiculously long!). then at what i thought was half time, everyone was like "ok are we ready to go?" and seeing as how i was freaking hungry (and to be honest, pretty bored) i jumped at the chance to get the heck out of there because i wanted a burrito. i was surprised that everyone wanted to leave the game early...little did i know the game was over. and i'm an idiot. because i had no idea that college basketball games were only 2 periods rather than 4 quarters. how foolish of me.

belated boo

so these are pictures from halloween last weekend...i'm getting behind in my blogging. it was a good night filled with party hopping and merriment. i forgot how much i lovvvve halloween since last year it was spent writing a paper. i made sure to clear my night this year so i could maximize the fun-having. please take note: i have a utility belt and pleather-like leggings. and let me just say...i wish i could wear those shiny leggings every day of my life. because they are freaking fabulous.

cavewoman, catwoman, and rainbow brite!

i coincidentally found a batman to pose with. i think it was meant to be.party!

mesdames et messieurs...

permettez-moi de vous presenter*...MOI!

four words: i got the job.

i'm so in love with life right now.




*just know that that word has an accent on the first e but when i tried to do it the blog freaked out.

wa-POW!

two words: TUMBLE GYM. a room filled with trampolines, a huge foam pit, blow up bouncy things, and basically everything you could possibly need to train to be a gymnast, or just have a ridiculously good time. there aren't too many pictures because we were too busy running around and doing flips into the foam pit or jumping over foam pad walls from trampoline to trampoline. the one downer of the night: my roommate heather totally sprained her ankle. she was trying to jump off the trampoline over a blow-up column, but instead she ran into it and fell over. we were all laughing up until we saw the pained look on her face. and then we felt bad. really bad. this video documents me flying through the air with the greatest of ease..orrrr jumping into a foam wall. i eventually did clear it and successfully jump onto the other side, but that unfortunately didn't get captured on video.

arts, crafts, and shiny shiny leggings.

so last night we had an arts and crafts night to make shirts. it was a fabulous way to get the creative juices flowing. dave brought over special screen printing ink especially for fabrics and we got down to business. look. look how focused we are on the creative process.

the end results....arizona flag, anatomically correct skeleton (for anatomy, not halloween), piano keys, roboti'm playing courtney. and she likes it.

after the t-shirt palooza, we got bored. and decided to...make a mock mormonad. and we wanted it to involve the shiny black leggings that i just bought for my catwoman halloween costume. we chose to liberally interpret the "be your own kind of beautiful one" by featuring different styles that are all...beautiful. har har har... please note that i never have, and never will in fact wear this outfit in seriousness and in public.
