'Tis the Season!

Wow, it's been a while!

This past week has been pretty busy, so I haven't had time to write anything before now. I've been studying hard and getting al my papersand study guides done for class, so I guessnot writing for a while is a good thing.

It's the last three weeks of school and I've found that I'm actually very sad. I don't really want to leave my roommates or even this area, despite the cold (it's been VERY cold this week). I have fallen in love with BYU-Idaho and Rexburg. True, there isn't a lot here, but it's still so fun and such a great environment. I'm going to miss Kelli and Shelly a whole lot over winter and summer semesters. We're had a good fall semester together and I canNOT wait until next fall when we get to room together again!!

This evening the five roommates went out to take our apartment Christmas photo (cheesy, I know, but it was fun anyway. And it didn't take very long, only abut ten minutes so don't worry!).

We had a little bit of fun just goofing off.
And we also tried some pictures outside,but it was cold and it wasn't working so well with getting all of us in the pictures...
So we went back inside and thought this would be cute! So this is our dorm christmas photo.
Oh yeah, we got mistletoe in our dorm. Matt was being a silly boy.

7 strange things about me:


1. When I set my alarm clock, it canNOT be on a 5 or a ten. It's always something random, like 7:17 or 12:58. I don't know why, but I just like to have my alarm set for a weird time.

2. I eat my foods in order of dislike...or order of like but backwards so I end up eating what I like best last. And I never eat a bite of one thing and then a bite of another. I eat it all at once and then move onto the next

3. Heather says that I should mention that I play the harp. It's not really weird, but it's not really normal either. I love the harp. I love it.

4. My laptop is named Lloyd, after Lloyd Dobler from Say Anything. My car also has a name. He's Jack, but that's just because he looks like a gentleman.

5. I discovered something interesting about myself this week. I've had a whole lot of tests and papers due these past few days, which has caused me a lot of stress. Well, for the past two nights I've been told that I've talked in my sleep. I've hissed something that sounded like "suck it" or "second" and apparently Heather thought I was going to kill her. And then last night I actually said a whole sentence...but Heather had her ear phones in, so she can't tell me what I said.
But there you have it, I talk in my sleep when I'm stressed.

6. I'm still stuck on what to add.

7. And I have no one else to tag...so this is going nowhere.

Preference

The preference dance was so fun. Our costumes turned out amazing! I had a blast...

Dear Rexburg, it's going to get cold

Last night I was looking at the weather forecast for the next ten days herein wonderful Rexburg, Idhao.
Six of the next days have been forecast with snow and cold cold weather. I am not looking forward to this. But actually, it's not going to be too bad. I'll be here for just one more week after Saturday and then I get to go home to Sunny, Warm California! I'm so excited for Thanksgiving break. I am SO excited for Thanksgiving break.
On another note, Elliott responded on Monday. I came home from dance feeling very irritated because he wasn't there and I was just in a bad mood and then I saw a big pack of double stuffed oreos on our porch...and a note that said, "I would be OVERSTUFFED to go to Preference with you!!!!!! Elliott Dennis". And then I was all happy and giggly. And apparently we're going to the dance in togas. The theme is Famous Couples in History and Elliott thinks wearing togas would be fun. Soooo we'll see!
Another guy in my dance class, Aaron, has asked me to dance a swing routine with him for som Mr. BYU-Idaho pagent his ward is having. We got together on Monday night to learn some lifts and drops and it's so fun! I can now do the candle stick, the L drop, and a backflip! I'm way stoked about this...

Alright, this past week seemed soooo long, probably because Halloween was in the center.

Last Sunday Heather and I bonded with our roommates! We spent a good two or three hours just taking pictures on Heather's Mac and it was amazing

Top to Bottom: Kelli, Shalee, Kelli, Me, Heather. We're awesome.

Earlier on Sunday Kelli and I were listening to Queen's song 'Fat Bottom Girls' and we decided it would be funny to become fat bottom girls...so we did...and it was amazingSunday night we continued to bond when me Shelly, Kelli, and Heather finished watching 'Titanic'. It's a good movie, I have to admit. At the end of it, we were all just sobbing. It was very girlish, but still really fun. I really like Kelli and Shelly. Shalee, well, she's always talking to her boyfriend on the phone so she never really does anything with us. Oh well, Kelli and Shelly are still awesome. Next fall we want to room with them again!

Okay, the date last weekend with the RM. It was really fun! We went and picked out pumpkins and then carved them and watched 'The Princess Bride'. And here Miriam, is a picture of Adam

On tuesday night we went to the Haunted Mill with our FHE group but all my roommates chicked out! I was soooo scared but Elliott said he'd come with me. So we went and I even got to drive Shalee's car since we needed it. I was stoked about driving...but so scared of going. In the end it was so fun and I'm glad went, so it's all good.

L to R-Top: Alicia, Cody, Taylor, Chase
Middle- Amy, Eryn, Me, Hilary, and Mary
Bottom- Elliott, and Sam
I donno who the two guys on the right are

On Halloween after we picked up my costume, Heather and I went to the Gardens for a costume photo shoot. These two are my favorites of me

While we were there these two little girls called to me saying, "Hello Belle! Hello!" And then they came over and talked to me.
And they wanted to take picture with me. I felt like I was at Disneyland! It was sooo cool

Here are the roommates!
But that was before we found Heather's costume of incredible awesomeness

Me and Carley Clayton, the Disney Princesses

We found newsies!!! You have NO idea how excited we were to find them. They're pretty.
Me dancing with the Tooth Fairy...gooood times! Hahaha, Matt Wood is amazing
Matt Wehle was a kissing booth! I got to kiss his face with lipstick...
And then the roommates in our final Costumes.
Ninja Turtle, Optimus Prime (tranformers!), Pirate Wench, Robin, and Belle.

It was a good Halloween week.
