Full of Follies

I wanted to take a bit of time to re-cap my weekend. This weekend we had Freshman Follies, a production of different groups from the Freshman dorms and some solo specialty acts. As you know I was a co-director for our hall, so having 25ish girls that are dependingon you is slightly stressful, but you know me, I function well if stressed and rushed heh. It was a VERY interesting process, but most of all I love how I met the majority of the hall and got to make some new friends. It's awesome! Our show went really well!!! The entire show was great and had a large variety of types of shows put on. However, I heard alot of people who did and did not know me bot hsay they thought our show was the best of all the girls!!!! I was so psyched. Friday my parents and gramma got into town. We went and had dinner at Crackerbarrel, SOOO good. I had chicken & dumplings and hashbrown casserole! YUm! Then they brought me back to campus. I had to be in Moody by 7:00 for the 8:00 show. Our act was the LAST girl act...so yeah we got to chill a LONG time in there. We did different stuff...played cards...goofed off...made alot of new friends...practiced...chilled. It was fun! Then we went on! We did SO good! After our act we stay close to stage because we all go in for the finale...BLUH! we did a song and dance from Highschool Musical...which is a BIG hit right now but I am not in on the excitement atall! Oh well. After the show...I came to my room to relax. I was going to go to Wal-Mart with Madalyn but ended up meeting some other friends I had made at Java City. It was a VERY interesting night, not what I expected and probably wouldn't repeat haha.
Saturday...I had to be in Moody at 12:00 for a 1:00, after that show we went DIRECTLY back into Moody for a 3:00 show. Mom brought me subway in between which I have been craving...YUM! Both of those went really well. I feel like we were quieter at the 3:00, which kinda stunk cause thats when my family was all there. Oh well. They loved it. My giant dorito bag was a hit. I'm going to try and see if I can put pics up on here for you guys who couldn't see it. After the 3:00 I felt a little famous having fans there. haha JK. My family and I took pictures..dropped off my stuff...and went to eat at the Jelly Bean, I got quiznos for dinner. We all sat and ate and talked. After that...my gramma disappeared and my parents and I sat out on the benches for my last 20 minutes of my break. They got to meet my best friend Madalyn....it was cool. Then they left for the football game. Madalyn and I went back into Moody. I was soooo pumped about the ACU football game and sad I couldn't go, cause I maybe might have possibly put $20 on the game that we would beat New Mexico...OMG we did!!!!! I was so excited. My mom texted me score updates all throughout the game...but they left early. So when the whole night was over and I was in the lobby of Nelson I saw a cheerleader....asked her what happened..and we had KICKED BUTT!!! WOOHOO! That was a division II school FYI! haha. So yeah I was siked. but anyway! We did our last Follies performance. It was such a blast and really fun. Hanging out was fun! I played volleyball, which ended up popping blood vessels on my arm and bruising it..weird! I slept alot too and even studied but just a little. Madalyn jumped off the floor of the upper section to the court with her umbrella to slow her fall...her booty is sore hahahaha. It was all in all a GREAT time. Afterward...Madalyn and I went and changed, went to Rosa's for drinks and a snack, then met our friends at Monk's. They were having this hang out thing to raise money for invisible children...it was ALOT of fun! We got back 20 until curfew. We had fun! When I got back I talked on AIM a while and then showered. Went to bed at like 2:30 or 3:00 and had to get up at 8:25...haha FUN!
Sunday: Kate picked me up and we went to meet Mum, Pops, and Gramma for breakfast at Crackerbarrel. I had biscuits & gravy, hashbrown casserole, and an egg...what I ALWAYS get and LOVE! It was yummy! When we left there it was our goodbye. They headed home and I came back to my dorm. I think I took a nap until lunch...but not quite sure haha. Yeah I think so..then I met my friends for lunch. After that I did work in my room until church time with Kate at Hope Church of Christ..which I LOVE! Church was really good. I liked the speaker, he was ayoung and married only a year, VERY energetic speaker. At first it was a little much, but it was just so refreshing to have someone TRULY PASSIONATE speak to me about my relationship with Christ. Afterward Kate left, but I stayed to eat with Katie and some other people I didn'treally know. She brought me back to Campus for Swing Cats. It went alright. I got some BAD partners..some GOOD! So it was fun. I came back...showered...and did school.
That's my weekend!!!! Follies basically ruled it with fun late nights in between. I made alot of friends this weekend, new and better ones with what I already had. It was awesome! It was great to have my family come and visit. They got to see my new room set-up, support me in my show, meet my friends, buy me food, it was great! Tomorrow I will write about the first half of my week!
