Beginning of November.... ish

So Tuesday night me Nic, Brigham, and Mack were watching Naruto in the living room when we hear a bunch of commotion outside. We quickly looked outside and saw that it was snowing! It was officially the first snowfall of the season!

 Nic hadn't seen snow so he quickly went out to go touch it. He was surprised at how soft it was.

 The next morning I went to my first class and it was snowing, but by the time my third class was over it had stopped snowing and was starting to melt.

So remember that basketball game I had on Halloween, well the next day I had a cough. I thought it was just asthma so I took my inhaler and waited it out. It didn't go away by Sunday so I took another puff. Well on Tuesday I realized that it was sickness because I had a fever. It wasn't bad, and luckily I didn't have any classes to go to, but I didn't go to volleyball practice because of the cough. However on Wednesday I was really feeling it. I decided to push through it and went to my morning classes.  Luckily my second class was cancelled so I got a rest, but after my third class I was exhausted and really feeling it. I decided to see if I could make it to my next class that started 3 hours later, but I ended up not going to that class or my Business Law class afterwards. I had my study buddy come and pick up something that we need to turn in everyday no matter what and then went straight to get some medicine. Luckily my roommates were going shopping so I didn't have to drive there. I came back and decided I had to go to my last class because there was a group quiz that I couldn't make up, so I stocked up on cough drops and wrapped a scarf around my mouth and toughed it out. Good thing I went to cause we got a 100 on the test. Thursday was the worst for the sickness, but I had a basketball game again after volleyball practice. I had to go to the game because we  only have five people on the team, and without five people at the game we have to forfeit. Because I had to go to basketball I decided that I should also go to volleyball, but I ended up not going cause I was really sick. The basketball game sucked and I was dying the whole time, and we lost (which didn't surprise me). I went home and did nothing the rest of the night but watch Naruto. On Friday I went to all of my classes, which was only three cause my business law class was cancelled. and luckily my third class was only 10 min long. I went home and relaxed the rest of the day. My friend Amber really likes Thor, and she wanted me to go with her and her friends, so I invited all of my roommates. Kyle had a date so he couldn't go and Josh didn't want to go. The first showing was at 7:45 so we showed up at 7. (Amber and her friend had dressed up as Loki and Thor btw) It was sold out and so was the next one. The only one open was a 11 showing so we got tickets for that one. Nic decided that he should work on his paper instead and dropped out and then Amber's friend got a migraine so she dropped out, so it was me, Amber, Mack, and Brigham going now. Amber changed because she didn't want to be the only one dressed up. When we went back they accidentally started showing Last Vegas instead of Thor, so I didn't get to see the trailers that were in front of Thor, which sucked. Amber was really hyper throughout the movie and kept hitting me and Mack (she was inbetween us). I was still sick and the theater was hot so I was feeling a little nauseous, and one of Amber's freak outs over Loki hit me in the stomach so I felt like I had to throw up the whole movie, but I liked the movie. Curfew was at 1 and we got home at 1:15 and it was weird because there was some guy taking down names (I know that wasn't normal because my roommate had been past curfew twice) but we didn't really care because it was only 15 minutes and it wasn't like we could have drove faster or something. Now today was stake conference so I could sit in the back and cough up a storm and then our FHE sisters are having a dinner thing at their place that we are going to.

End of October

So the day before Halloween me and my roommates decided to have a pumpkin carving party. I invited some people and so did Kyle.

 I carved a pokeball because my friend carved the triforce, which was what I was going to do.

 We had Ghost Busters playing while carving, so after we were all done we finished that. Our FHE group also came over and brought pumpkin pie, but they had to leave early.

On Halloween day I had volleyball practice from 4:30-6 and then I am doing basketball with Nic and Mack (only because they needed another person in order to have a team) and the game was at 6:15. Normally it wouldn't matter, bur for practice that day we scrimmaged a team, and our opposite was gone, so I played the whole time. So that, on top of playing basketball right after, meant that I was exhausted and didn't do anything on Halloween besides homework. But just to appease my mother I made my roommates dress up in our costumes and take a picture, we were the power rangers.

On Friday everyone besides Josh went to a Chinese restaurant, and then to Walmart to buy candy. That was a fun night and we got a lot of candy.


So in English we are writing a synthesis paper, which is just fancyness for a research paper, that has to be 2000 words that is due tomorrow. So we had many due dates since getting the assignment, so I was basically done. I just needed 171 more words, which is one paragraph. So on Monday there was no class, but you had the option to come in and get help from the teacher, I had no idea what my last paragraph should be, since my paper was done basically, so I went in. I told my teacher about my dilemma and so she read the paper to find out a place to put another paragraph. She finished and said "your paper is pretty dang perfect and I wouldn't put another paragraph in because it is just like opening another can of worms. I am not going to count every word so if you just make your conclusion better (I am horrible at conclusions) then you should be good." She then told me some tips on writing my conclusion and that was it. I was super happy because she said my paper was perfect and that I was amazing at blending my quotes and that stuff. She also laughed while reading (I always try to add a little humor) and liked my examples. So needless to say I was super excited as I walked home.
