As I Recall It Ended Much Too Soon - Oh What a Week!

Oh my heavens, this was the probably the best week here, thus far. So let me touch on, if I may (and I may, because it's my blog, dang-nab-it), some of the highlights of the week.

I was able to get all the troubles with my bank account resolved. I won't go into the boring details, but it was quite a burden off my shoulders to know that I still had funds available to me.

I woke up Wednesday morning to a cute, encouraging note in my bathroom drawer from my roommate. (Thanks, Allisyn!) Later that night, I went with her to another apartment lounge to watch the season premier of Psych. I'd never seen the show before, but I found it quite enjoyable and definitely enjoyed the company.

On Thursday, I went on a date to the 10-pin bowling alley in the MC building. I have only ever been 10-pin bowling once before, but I think I like it better. It's easier to hold the balls with holes in my short, chubby fingers.

Friday lunch brought another lunch date with a young man in my ward. Free (for me, anyways) food is always welcome!

Brianne's birthday was on Friday, so we went out as an apartment to celebrate at Neilson's Frozen Custard for dinner. We don't often do a ton all together, so it was exciting to be able to spend time with all of them.

I went to a haunted straw maze on Friday night. It was super well done and too much fun. Three of us got separated from the rest of the group and we were in there for a good 40 minutes longer than everybody else. Eventually the dressed up workers had seen us wandering back and forth so many times that they just broke character and told us which way we needed to go. It was fantastic.

On Saturday, as an apartment, we had our own Super Saturday. I love crafting! We all bought wood letters corresponding to the first letters of our names which we then painted and decorated and hung on our living room wall. Later, we watched The Swan Princess and made Bead Pets. (That was nostalgic. I remember Julie teaching me as a little girl how to make the bead geckos.)

For a few of her music classes, Camille had to go to the Paul Jacobs organ concert and asked if I wanted to go with her. To be honest, I was expecting to be a little bored, but I was pleasantly surprised. This guy was really talented and there were times when, had I not been watching him myself, you could not have convinced me that all that music was coming from a single musician on a single instrument. Very enjoyable.
On a side note, every time I talk to Camille, I am just more and more surprised at how alike we are and how well we get along. It's really very lucky. She keeps me sane, sometimes.

It was also very good to skype with Mom and Courtney this week. Thinking I'd be getting my phone fixed sooner rather than later, I kept putting it off (I get so frustrated with the awful internet connection here, and I can actually phone them), but it was so nice to hear from them both again.

So, I definitely enjoyed this week. Here's hoping we can make it a 2 week streak!
