In January, I gave up my job offer and dreams of working at Disneyworld, and decided to transfer to Brigham Young University. As sad as I was about not going to "The Happiest Place on Earth", BYU just felt right and so I followed my instincts and moved to the "Happy Valley".
I found an apartment in the Riviera. #5 was the random one I chose, and it ended up being the best apartment in The Riv. My room mates were Jane, Becca, and Joelle.
My room mate was Jane Marie Smith
She is now engaged and she has the cutest
blog. She is seriously the most thoughtful girl I've ever met. She gave the best hugs when I was sad, and she writes the sweetest "thank you" and "good luck" notes.
Jane is moved out now, but I still live with my other roomies: Becca Allen and Joelle Graham.
Becca is from Provo. I'm pretty sure she never has bad or negative thoughts. Joelle is from ogden. We have a special bond involving trips to Bed Bath and Beyond and watching TLC shows.
My new roomie is Rachel Allen, Becca's younger sister.
She is so fun and I'm excited to get to know her better!
The old roomies and I, had a quote board. The quotes were all taken out of context, and the rule is that you can't write your own quote on the board. It was a great conversation piece but in our new apartment we decided to throw the quote board away. But because I think we are hilarious, I decided I needed to document our hilariousness:
Jane:
“Just to teach your sons, your kids, and your daughters.”
“Can I tell you guys how confused I am about my gender? . . . No really, can I talk to you about my gender?”
“I get my narcissism from my father.”
“Old people do it, so it’s okay.”
“Boys’ kisses are like pretzels—salty and crunchy!”
“I’ve always wondered what people without hands do when they get married.”
“They’ll grow up eventually, until they’re teenagers and really ugly” (sleeptalking)
“This is so good, it’s just like McDonalds!”
Katie:
“We should all eat cheese cream and aspberries cookies.”
“Let’s go to birthday for Disneyland.”
“That took us exactly about twenty minutes.”
“SChollarship Essas” (title of her word document)
“I’m such a chocolate not-wanna-waster.”
“When did this giggle come in my life?”
“I need to go grocery shore stopping!”
“Child, read your boring stuff!”
“A lot much better.”
Becca:
“I was speechless. Well, I wasn’t talking to anyone.”
“I have a dad for a punk.”
“You can use boiled eggs as handwarmers in the winter!”
“Oh tumors.”
“I have a descendant named Aaron Johnson.”
“Joelle, you could totally pull that sweater off.”
“Thanks, we had a great time!” (people at Aspen Grove) “You too!” (me)
“Becca, you’re an idiot!” (Jane) “At least I’m not an id…” (me)
“Mom, BYU’s playing BYUH tonight.” (me) “Oh good, keep your shirt on.” (mom) – cuz I was wearing a BYUH shirt
Joelle:
“Becca. I mean everyone. Including Meg (meg=old roomie before me). Use my milk.”
“Becca, will you remove my uterus?”
“Hey Joelle, I used to be like you. But then I got over it.” (Meg)
“I need a scholarship.” (me) “Well, it’s all your dad’s fault cuz he earns too much money and he didn’t marry a black man.” (Joelle)
“My pinky toe doesn’t get enough attention.”
“Why is it not being drinken?”
“I would ditch you for him.” (talking to Katie about Dustin)
“It’s like my third toe.”
“What it is?”
“Yeah, I can’t eat in the early morning…because I can’t wake up in the early morning.”
“I’m a really bad pet-taking-care-of-er.”
EnJoY :)
