Ah, Thursday..

Thursday is a beautiful day of the week. Not only do I start classes at NOON, we also start our weekend a bit early here at 96. This probably isn’t the best idea considering most of us have 3 hours of class on Friday morning, but something about Thursday is strangely irresistible.

A flashback on the last couple Thursdays…

THURSDAY the 12th… It was like a pre-pre-Valentine’s day celebration, complete with candy hearts and chocolate kisses. How can you go wrong with that?? Basically, Kortney came down as usual (our perma-visitor from apartment 100) and we talked. And laughed. And talked. And laughed... (which usually ends up with Andi J. spitting mouthwash everywhere or Savvy not quite making it to the ladies room in time). And at the usual 3 A.M. Kort and Savvy realized they both had papers due at 8 A.M. Eventually, we all picked a couch and crashed in the living room.

THURSDAY the 5th… Dave and I planned a road-trip to BYU-Idaho to visit my sister and brother-in-law... Our first-ever road trip! Since we were planning on leaving at about noon the next day, Thursday night was dedicated to grocery shopping and packing. So Andi J, Kort, and I kidnapped Dave’s car, cranked the Taylor Swift mix, and headed to Macey’s. Thank goodness for 24-hour grocery stores, right? And let me tell you, our cart was like an explosion of sugar and dozens of other treats that are harmful to our health – Perfect for road-tripping.


And of course, the night ended when morning already came.

Needless to say, we all get excited for the pointless, sleep wasting activities that occur on Friday Eve. No one knows what's going down tonight… but all I can say is TGIT!! Thank goodness it’s Thursday… :)

apartment ninety-six

Well, I've finally decided to start a blog. Quite exciting. I figure that life is exciting enough that it might as well be documented. I suppose I should begin with my list of characters - also known as the people in my life.

My Roommates: Andi J, Savvy, Bekah, Rae, Kirsten
The Boys of 87: Dave (my boyfriend), Steve, Pete, Boden

Obviously there are many more characters in this story, but this'll give us a start.

Setting: A small 6-girl apartment right off campus at BYU in the busy town of Provo, Utah... a town that literally never sleeps.

Theme: Best friends, best times, best laughs, best all-nighters and best grades... (right?)
