I'm quite happy with my schedule! Dance is amazing. So far we're doing the basics of swing and waltz -- swing is apparently easier for guys than waltzes are.

Yarr!

Pirates3 came out yesterdayyyy! I got to go with Nick, Beth, Daniel, and Loren. Tonight we had dinner and watched Pirates1. Yarr! Soo many references we caught in this one that were in the third. Click the pirate picture below to read more about it.

The PIRATE QUEEN

We had a lot of fun. Tonight we had brats and chili dogs for dinner, talked for a couple hours, then watched Pirates1 till 11:15pm. Loren and Daniel promised to help me with some projects I'm working on as well, for which I am very excited. (You know, these pirates pictures of me make me look fat.... -grimaces- Stupid poofy shirt. I KNEW I should have straightened it before I got my picture taken!)

I got lots of really fun comments at the theatres last night, as well as some amusing looks when I was driving to get to the theatre. No one even questioned that I had a sword on... then again, we passed a few people that could have easily passed as prostitutes and much more dangerous looking pirates than me....


Have I ever mentioned how much I LOVE hanging out with my friends?


Anyways. From here on out will be pictures that have been taken since school let out for summer... since they only got uploaded this afternoon. I'm still missing pictures from Brad's wedding, but when I upload those, those will be online too. Savvy? ;) Have a great night! (BTW, I hate the photo service here. I don't think I'll use blogger photo albums again...)

Me being ... me ... at Brad's wedding. Picture courtesy of Beth and my camera.

Butterflies! Me and my newest pet... for the five minutes he graced me with his presence that is.

Noah with his butterfly.

Really awesome butterfly.

Logan hiding in the conservatory. Most of you would love his shirt. It reads: "I'm not dead yet!" You guess the play.

Olivia. She's soo cool. We were filming a lacrosse game her dad was coaching. (Her old team.)

Mmmm! What a night!

Mmmm... tonight was awesome! Went to pistol club, shot at targets for a while. FINALLY figured out how to get the gun to work. >.< And no, I wasn't stupid enough to point it at my head while trying to figure it out. And yeah, I've been asked that already. :-P Met some guys there that I met first time I went (It's been difficult getting to shoot this semester), and they were just so cool. We talked during Club, then walked out together. I was simply enjoying having intelligent and interesting conversation. (A rarity here.) They invited me to join their bible study session for the day, and after a moment's hesitation - I mean come on, these guys were hilarious! - I agreed. They were making a skit for tomorrow night, and then discussed the Bible some. Then we went upstairs and watched BBC's Robin Hood, the entire time comparing it to Star Wars, SG-1, and LOTR. Man these people were cool! THen we had discussions about Eragon and Hitchhiker's and more movies and yeah. Really cool. Just got home.... five hours after I left this afternoon. So amazing. I've not laughed that hard in so long....

*can't help but giggle and act like a little kid*

Yes. Giggle. A lot. It was just that awesome.
