Fun in the Sun!

I love the 7 week possy group! Somebody asked if anyone knew of any FHEs that were happening. Since neither me nor my roommates can actually figure out who our FHE group is (Rexburg is really disorganized in the summer), I was really interested in the answer, esp. when someone posted that their Stake was going tubing down the river! My roommate Kara and I went and we had a blast( though we did freeze in the icey water)! Then after the river there was a barbecue and a bonfire. The guys chopped down some trees and threw them in the fire and we got to watch carpenter ants scrambling trying to save the larva and themselves from the flames. I am so glad that my roommate found this 7 week possy group! :) :) :)

LOL

Sometimes people at BYU Idaho really crack make me laugh. I joined a group called Seven Week Possy that posts different activities going on so that everyone can participate (this is where my roommate found out about the group going to the BMX competition that I went to on Saturday, it was awesome for those of you who are wondering! I got to see someone do a backflip on their bike out of the pool! ). Anywho back to what makes me laugh, you would not believe the number of people posting a responding to blind dates! It is so funny! They actually got so many that they have now created a separate group specifically for that purpose! Some of the comments on them are pretty funny too. For instance one had an argument going about whether a girl can help pay for a date or not, with the guys arguing against and the girls arguing for. One guy said no because it was emasculating. I like to read all the posts just because they provide some good laughs! :)

Be where you are supposed to be when you are supposed to be there

I really learned this lesson in the shower today. I let my head wander off somewhere in la-la land. Now some of you may be thinking, what is the problem with that, of all places to let your mind wander surely the shower is one of the safest? Not so! You see my body wash was positioned right next to my conditioner, so when I reached for my conditioner my preoccupied mind failed to inform me that what I had in fact grabbed was not conditioner at all but body wash. Having been using a two in one solution for the last week and a half that has dried out my hair a bit I poured a generous serving of conditioner (body wash) onto my hand and plopped it onto my poor unsuspecting hair. No sooner did it hit my hair then my absentee mind decided it was really about time to start doing its job and informed me to my horror that I had just put a lot of body wash onto my head. I frantically scrapped as much as I could off then turned to try to wash the rest out. Guess what- body wash takes a whole lot of time to come out of hair. Moral of the story: be where you are supposed to be when you are supposed to be there or in other words don't let your mind wander. :)
