First, let me say, this has been a really hard and stressful week. (Some of you reading this are probably going, it's you Megan, every week is stressful!?) Okay, well this one was worse. I had 6 tests this week (and still have two left). Six. SIX. Ugh. Well, I took my first one on Wednesday, history, and I wanted to cry when it was done. It was SO LONG, an essay and 15 short essays. My hand was dying and I still have no clue what I got on it but hey, IT'S DONE. Thursday, I took my New Testament midterm. Cortney and I studied for an hour before we took the test and two hours on Wednesday night. And we did NOT do well!? I really don't like that class....Grrr....anyway after that darned test, Cortney came over and we made a delicious chicken alfredo meal and man, that kid can cook! I need some seriously cooking lessons, obviously lol. But it was nice relief before I had to continue studying.....
Friday morning, Janel, Colleen and I went to the temple, which was super nice and strengthening as always, even though it was 6:30 in the morning. Feels like seminary all over again! And I swear, everyone in Provo goes to the temple then!?!? After that, I went in for test #1 of the day--Living Prophets. It was a breeeeze.
While turning in my test, I ran into Jen and Emily Aranda! We walked for a bit and caught up, it was really fun to see people from back home! After that, I met up with Cortney and Lydia and we headed to our normal Awful Waffle brunch. When we got to my apartment, I was fed up with living and Cortney and Lydia took advantage of that and turned me into their pillow, as pictured here. :P I took my 4th test, Sociology 111, only after studied for about an hour total. 81%!!!!! You gotta me KIDDING ME. I was kinda mad, not gonna lie that I studied 3 hours for New Testament and did so poorly!? UGH, oh well. I went home and veged for a bit before we went to our ward's Halloween Party in Salem! It was SWEET and just like a huge dance party. I had a BLAST! And we won the "nerdiest costume...." Creative, right? But it was super awesome.
Well obviously, I'm turning older because it was my first birthday when I had to go to a test review (yeah, on a Saturday, I know, right?) and grocery shopping. Reality check, that's for sure! I woke up and my wonderful roommate left me a super sweet note, California themed present! I MISS CALIFORNIA!!!!!!!! But not the weather-that's for sure!
Anyway, then I decided I wanted to straighten my hair so Whit and I got creative! JUST KIDDING, she used a straightener, lol. But it took so long and Whit burned her thumb so she's officially my hero <3 I love that girl!!!!! After that, the Spendloves dropped by with cupcakes, bless their hearts! We went grocery shopping, bleck, and then Shelby made two ice cream "pies" and I was off to a test review with Swanson. Our TA was definitely on something (called lack of sleep) and rambled on forever and a day....she told us about what happened the night before when she was sleeping with her husband....it was AWKWARD.
Swanson and I walked back to his apartment and Cortney gave me 120 songs on my iPod while waiting for those with cars to pick us all up. Best day ever! We all headed over to Cafe Rio where my best friend paid for my meal....which was totally sweet because I was going to use a giftcard I received from Whit's family but instead I can save that for SOME OTHER TIME. Woooooo!!! After we all ate, we returned to my apartment and played a few rounds of the resistance. We switched to Mafia after awhile, ate cake and that was that! The boys all left and Colleen, Whit, Emily and I watched FREAKY FRIDAY. BEST. GIFT. EVER! I love that movie, I really do. Ahh.
It was a good day :) Thanks for all the presents, well wishes, and acts of friendship I received yesterday. I felt special and that was something I really needed. :)
