SOOOOO...Friday night was pretty dang awesome! My friend Ashley Benson and I planned out a fun blind date. I set her up with my friend Michael and she set me up with one of her FHE brothers, Cade. I went to her apartment for a while to help her make hot "ham ring" for dinner. We had fun talking and planning it all. I ran and set up the picnic in the gardens. We had them meet at the studying people statue infront of the MC. Then we blind folded them and walked them all the way to the gardens. All of us talked and ate the hot meal and then the guys had brought cookies and ice cream so we all dipped cookies in ice cream for dessert. It was really fun!!! THEN...we divided and had a scavenger hunt. I had come up with all kinds of things that we had to do-
10 jumping jacks in the
football field
Meet 3 people and learn
their favorite color

Climb a tree in the
gardens
Make grass angels in a
grassy place
Stand in the median of a
round-about

We had to take pictures and videos of everything. I had so much fun with Cade, he has such a great attitude. We managed to get back just in time and had missed the book by Thomas S. Monson and the football field jumping jacks. Ashley and Michael had gotten everything! After that we all went to the BYU vs. BSU game in the MC on the big screen. It was really funny because Cade is a hard core BSU fan. I talked with him for an hour and half and we clicked really well because he is into choir and cross country. After the game, Michael left. I don't think that Ashley and him clicked very much which made me a little sad.
After the game, all of Ashley's FHE brothers were there and we all went to their apartment where Cade gave me one of his huge BYU sweatshirts. Then in the gardens we all played super fun games of sardines and Zombie tag. It was SO fun. At one point, Cade leaped into a pond and got soaked on accident. We said goodbye- I really hope I can hang with them in the future. Jancen was there also- a cute guy I work with.
Saturday I participated in a ropes course. I chose to go the most difficult way, up a ladder with rungs like 4 feet apart. That was crazy!- My arms are still incredibly sore.
I worked on homework and projects ALL day and then at 9pm my friend Trevor invited me to go play fugitive (tag around the city). That was way fun! Then, walking to one of the parks, two New Mexico guys and other girl and I got seperated from the main group. The guys bought all of us Hot cocoa and churros. We all talked for a while and one of them ended up driving me home.
Sunday I gave a lesson on drawing closer to god which went really well. Yeah, that's my crazy week. I'm currently finishing up 4 hours of homework in the library.
