It is getting close to the end of the semester so things are getting a little crazy and I'm super duper busy (and stressed about final projects and exams!). But here is a recap of the crazy awesome things that have happened this week!
The Holi Festival of Colors was this past weekend! It is always fun to have a chalk powder fight with my best friends and a gaggle of strangers who have all forgotten about personal boundaries- but my airways always pay the price. This year I tried bringing a bandanna to cover my mouth and nose but I still had black snot for a day or two.
My friend Bre and I dyed Easter eggs with Kool-Aid! It was the two of us alone in the kitchen dying eggs.... in an apartment that neither of us live in. Our dear friends who actually live in this apartment were all distracted by their ever-so-interesting homework.
The Kool-Aid egg dying technique worked surprisingly well! Super fast and super intense colors.
This week I also paid first and last month's rent for my housing contract about to start at The Colony! I AM SO FREAKING EXCITED TO LIVE THERE!!! Also, that was probably the most cask I had ever held in my hands at one time. I felt very rich for the twenty minutes it took to go from the bank to the housing office. Now I feel very poor.
To celebrate, my future roommate Ana and I had lunch at the only place we could still afford after handing our life savings over to The Colony.
This week we discovered that if you go to Macy's at 3 in the morning the cheerful employees will be stocking shelves and more than happy to part with the leftover boxes. That is one step closer to moving into our dream apartment.
*Now I would like to take a moment to say that YES, I do love my current roommates, they are super awesome. And YES, I have also really really really enjoyed living in Centennial and my ward is AWESOME. I love them.*
And finally, they added another monitor to my computer at work. Now I have double the screen space to squint at spreadsheets and databases every week day! Huzzah!
Finally, this week is General Conference, which means two things:
1. Two night slumber party with the Roman Gardens girls. Caffeine, McDonalds, games, super bed, and learning how to play poker.

2. It means GENERAL CONFERENCE!
Here is the Facebook event. I am so looking forward to listening to hours and hours of love, hope, charity, peace, comfort, and testimony this weekend. Is there anything better? Probably not. :)
