Not enough time in a day...

Sorry!!! It has been forever! I can't possibly catch you up on everything and I feel horrible about that! I first want to say, in my last blog I apparently concerned some (mum), with my comment about Friday nigth..."never do that again". That was simply in regards to the people I was with. They were nice just very weird and it was awkward. I thought people I KNEW were hanging out and it was alot of people I didn't! So yeah thats that.

Um, this past weekend I went to AUSTIN! It was with some people from Swing Cats here at ACU and we went to a dancing workshop. The teachers were amazing and famous from NY, teachers who traveled all throughout Europe teaching Swing Dancing...it was an incredible experience! I loved it! I didn't KNOW anybody going except a guy I know through Kate, his name is Barron and he rocks. Otherwise...it was a new world for me haha. We got there Friday night and after checking into the hotel we went to the FED where there was a dance going on. I was nervous because I DIDN"T know ALOT going into it and so I didn't WANT to dance...but I did haha. Different people ask and its hard to say no. That ended a little afte 1AM. Then we went back to the hotel and went to bed, which took a while cause four girls all needed showers! heh. Woke up 8:30 to get ready and grab breakfast. Got to the FED at 9:45 and started classes. They went until lunch from 1-2, then classes again until 6. There was a break for dinner but then another evening dance with live bands. We went to Chili's and were ALL so exhausted! We took a short break at the hotel before returning to the dance. Went there from 10-1:15. Then Sunday...We went back to the Fed for more classes. I only got the beginners packet so I was just observing classes today. I ended up doing one though haha. It was a hip-hop class, but like a Jamaican dorm. It was awesome!!! We left Austin around 5:30 I think. I was exhuasted!!! And sore! But it was a great experience! I got ALOT of compliments from the guys I knew and from those I didn't about how good I did, not just for a beginner, so that was REAL encouraging. We created a secret group called F.U.S.S. where we get together during the week to swing, not as Swing Cats where we're teaching people, just to get our dance on. It's pretty tight, I feel elite! haha. We met this past thursday nigth and it was fun!

This week has been alright. ALOT of school as usual. I had a major history exam which is always intemidating. Math and Bible quizzes. Just alot of homework. Last night (Friday night) was a blast though!!! First of all, Jessica, Madalyn's best friend from home came in from Baylor for the weekend so she was with us the whole evening. We met for dinner and it was my first time to eat in the Bean Sprout, I liked it! Then we headed to Putt Putt! The main reason we were going was because this band The Rocking Extensions was playing there. It is made up of several ACU students, a student from LCU, and a senior in highschool. They are SO GOOD! They have a formal cd and everything which I have now haha. They played last week in the Bean Sprout where I introduced myself. Yesterday I found them all on Facebook, so we're friends on there. After the show last night though we went to talk to them, which means I DRAGGED Madalyn over there haha. We got to talk to them all for a bit, I talked to Morgan for a bit (he remembered me from Facebook), and then the lead singer for like 25 minutes. He thought we were REALLY funny he said, but he also couldn't tell when we were being sarcastic and when we weren't. haha. We played Putt Putt during the concert and I won!! It was alot of fun. Our whole group was there but they played right behind us cause they got there later. Then we left from there and went to Oplon Dance Hall, the two-stepping place. When we got there at 10, we only had 30 minutes until it closed haha. But it was worth it. ALOT of students were there so it was FUN! I stood around for a long time just talking with everyone...it was getting close to the end and I was getting mad. I was like "I will NOT be happy if I paid $4 just to stand here!" haha Then the last song started...I was getting sad...heh...THEN! from across the room I made eye contact with Colt...a freshman here at ACU..he is like one of the cooler guys that everyone knows and he is "popular", but REALLY nice! He started walking over and I was like "Madalyn! I just made unintentional eye contact with Colt and I think he is headed this way!" FYI we didn't really KNOW eachother yet...he knew Riane though so we knew of eachother. But he came up and was like "who wants to dance?" Jessica and Madalyn both looked at me and he just put his hand out...haha. I was like YES! haha So it was funny, he helped me since it had been so long since I had done it..then we small talked. haha. He was a good leader. Then the song ended and I was very thankful, he was like Sorry I didn't come sooner. SO! My money was worth it cause I got a dance in and the girls were jealous haha. We left there and kinda drove around. We showed Jessica the sites...then ended the evening.

Today...I slept in of course. Don't have any major plans. I'm supposed to be meeting Riane and Amanda for lunch soon...then who knows. They take forever though Soooo I hope we make it before the Bean closes! After I probably just need to stay in and do school. Saturday nights are always more mellow than Friday nights. OH YEAH! We had our tatoo club last night! We all put on fake tats, generally in the same vicinity...it was tight. They are all so lame so its really funny. I just had two roses on my wrist. Again, I need to see if I can get pics up on this thing! Ok well I am going to go..I REALLY will try to get better about this so it can be like a daily thing, not so much at once, and better stories! Love you all!
