This is about the time that I get on here to complain about stuff. However, you're all in for a treat. Instead of complaining, I'm going to tell you about some magically wonderful things.
I start my story/list/reminiscing/whateveryouwanttocallit 15 days ago.
Sunday: I board a plane and fly to Vegas, where I see Rebekah, whom I had never met. It was super exciting. We stayed up til 3 am-ish playing bowling. We were super hyper and obnoxious and it was wonderful.
Monday: We went to the hoover dam, the wax museum, we bought $20 of candy at a candy store, rode gondolas, went to Phantom of the Opera, went to dinner at 1 am, got the black plague on our feet, and it was just amazing. I can not express how fabulous this day was. It was pure bliss and wonderfulness. Take your best day with your best friend and you have an inkling of this day.
Tuesday: I arrived at Elevation. I missed Beka. This begins my 5 days of emotional stress. I was the photographer. Although this week was fun, it was hard.
Wednesday: This was challenge day. I didn't talk for a whole hour to challenge myself. I watched my friends in emotional and physical pain.
Thursday: Nothing exciting.
Friday: Nothing exciting.
Saturday: Elevation ends. I was tired. I saw Rebekah and instantly got hyper. We drove to the airport and Layne picked me up. I went to her house, showered(i love showers after Elevation, although the water runs off brown), went out to eat, and watched an episode of psych on the floor of the brown room, snuggling with a large teddy bear.
Sunday: I went to church, took a nap, then went to the Lamb of God, which was beautiful. Theeennn it gets good. As soon as the Lamb of God is over, Layne's older sister and I head to the bus station to pick up Casey, whom I haven't seen in a year. I wanted to cry. We ate dinner, and then walked around the temple, talking. When Layne got home, we walked around the temple again. Then we all decided sleep was a good idea.
Monday: We left by 8:30 to get to Elevation. The drive itself was pretty great. We got split into pods, and we did our deals.
Tuesday: Challenge day. Let's just say that I rock climbed twice, rappelled, and ascended, among other things. I was proud.
Wednesday: Simulation. Service Project. Stuff.
Thursday: Solo time for 3 hours. It was awesome.
Friday: We left Elevation. And we went to the strip. And got slushies at 7 11. And we watched psych til 4 am. And it was beyond words, one of the best nights of my life. I'll spare you the details for multiple reasons.
Saturday: I had to watch one of my best friends, Casey, leave. I don't know how long it will be til I see him again. I wept. A lot. Layne and I went hiking to clear our minds, took a nap upon our return home(Yes, I consider her house my home...one of them), and then went to the Stratosphere. Lemme tell you, it was awesome.
Sunday: I left. I wept. I came home, and napped. I sulked.
I have a lot of things I could say. There are a lot of things I *want* to say. However, I don't know how. So, you'll have to make yourself content with this pathetic excuse for a post.
Au revoir.
