Here are some things that have happened during this week:
  • Went to the YW thrift store fashion show. Each Young Women had a few weeks before hand to buy an outfit with $10. You could chop anywhere. Then we had a fashion show and we told how much each item was and where we got it. I won the "Biggest Bargain Shopper Award" because I got a skirt for $1.10, a shirt for $1, a mini jacket for 1. a necklace for $2 and shoes for $5. The shoes we expenses but really cute! =) It was a great idea. I have amazing YW leaders!!
  • Thursday was our swing dancing night. Uh. that was interesting. Five 13 and 12 year old girls came, one 13 year old boy came, and then it was Nikol, her friends Don and Jaren, and me. I felt sorry for Jaren and Don. They were expecting an older age group. Nope! Sorry to disappoint. But the girls caught on FAST! Especially the Inokuchi girls. They were good follows. I know this because I got to learn to boy part. It's hard! Gah! What's even harder is keeping the parts straight. Nikol told us this to make it easier though: "Girls are always right, so girls always start with their right foot!" I think I can remember that. =)
  • Went to Audrey's birthday party. Needless to say, I had a blast. We played this improv game where two people started acting out a scene, anything that came off the top of their head, then the announcer person would say "FREEZE" and the two would freeze in their positions and then another person would come in, take the exact position of the person they replaced, and then as soon as "ACTION" was said, come up with an entirely new scene and act it out with the other person until they were frozen again. It was great fun.
  • Went to Mom's Eggstravaganza. Even though I had stayed up 'til four the night before, I still had tons of fun at the carnival. For most of the time I stayed at my booth ("Guess the Amount of M&M's") but I also hung out with Annie Sandholtz and Andrea Pickett. The cotton candy was delicious, until the cotton candy machine lit on fire. Heh. Ask Mom for details, because I don't know them.
  • Sang for the Japanese kids that were visiting. It wasn't very fun, but we did pretty well. I fell asleep during the practice, but luckily (this is sarcasm, just to let you know) Wyatt was there to nudge me awake. I was very grumpy after that.
  • Today I had BYC at 10 am, but I was catching up on my sleep so I slept in until 10... Luckily, I got ready in 4 minutes. Yes. 4 minutes! And the funny part is, I got a compliment on how pretty I looked today. Hmm.
That's all for now, folks!
