El Diablo

On the same day as the nerd stomp we found a new friend at wally world.  We affectionately named him El Diablo. When we were killing the last few minutes before the stompage, we decided to have him see who the best kisser was.

In my defense, I was trying really hard not to laugh.

It looks like Kenna was too!

Alyssa kisses with her eyes wide open.  And, being the photogenic person she is,

she looks beautiful.

Kensey is not featured in this because we could never find her picture.  As all who know her can imagine, she was pretty upset.  Sorry Kensey!

Nerd Power!!!

Close to the beginning of the year, we went to a stomp that was all about being nerdy. At the football game before the stomp, the SBOs handed out sunglasses and told us to pop out the lenses so we would look really nerdy.

Me and Kenna at the football game. Amanda and Jessica decided that they wanted to be in the picture too.

After the game, we decided it was time to get serious about being nerdy.  We made a trip to walmart to accessorize our outfits.  Alyssa and I got some lovely little girl ponytails, gems and all. I found a shirt in my own wardrobe that said "sweet grill" and had a picture of a smiley face with braces on it.  It was too perfect.  We painted out nerd glasses with nail polish and headed out to do some stomping! I even managed to get Dave to dress up like a nerd as well. 

Everyone getting ready to stomp!

Makeout Signs

This first picture is a sign that we came across while we were hanging out with some friends in Nuttell Hall.  We were. . . surprised that such a sign had to be posted in a common room.  But found it amusing none the less.

About a week after we saw this sign, everyone went home for the weekend.  Everyone but me.  It just so happened that a certain boy I liked and I were going on a date.  Alyssa saw fit to hang up a sign in our apartment.  Although it was quite embarrassing to see the sign while with my date.

After that sign came another, more famous, sign.  Kensey thought it would make our apartment more complete. In a way it did.

This became the sign that every roommate was required to kiss if they kissed a boy.  Afterwards all the roommates enjoyed chocolate ice cream, a treat given most unwillingly by the person who kissed a boy. 

Stomp I

This is the picture and story I probably should have put on first, but this is the first picture we ever took together as roommates.  This was an institute stomp that we made our famous reputation of stomp-goers.  We never missed a single stomp if we could help it.  At this particular one, there was ice cream being served on one side of the institute building, and music being played on another side.  We went to the ice-cream-less side and partied it up!... all by ourselves.  We were the only ones dancing for about five songs until a girl came and stared doing the dance to Single Ladies with us.  For about five minutes I felt sheepish.  Then I decided that I could care less what everyone thought about how we looked :)

Dressed in black, ready for the drop!

 One of the first weeks of school, Kenna, Kensey and I all put together a little prank.  We got a box of twinkies from wally world (one of two grocery stores in Ephraim).  Kenna figured out a way to open the twinkie box and wrapper so they looked untouched.  We used a soap pump to get the whipped cream filling out of the twinkie, and then to pump mustard into the twinkie.  We took Kensey's favorite white frosting and used it to cover the mustard.  Kenna magically sealed up the wrappers and box.  We dressed in black and left the box to one of our unsuspecting friends.

Muck Runners of Canyon View...

I have officially started a blog to preserve the precious memories of canyon view's muck runs. Hopefully I'll be able to leave a decent description with all the pictures I put up so we can remember everything :)
