Well, I got my confirmation from Liberty Square and we went and payed our deposits and last months rent. I have a place to live! Excitement and some stress gone!
Also I started going to the Chiropractor on Tuesday since my neck was feeling a bit out of sorts. Turns out my right hip was a couple inches above my left. He thinks it's probably from when I fell 8 feet out of a basket toss in cheer my sophomore year and landed in a sitting position. I went to the E.R. when it happened but I've never done anything else since. I went again on Friday and it felt wonderful. I have another appointment scheduled too :) Feeling a lot better!
On Saturday we went to Soldiers Hollow for a ward sledding activity. It was a blast! There's even a lift so that you can be lazy and stay sitting in your tube and it drags you to the top of the hill. Then there's 6 lanes going down and there's jumps and everything. It was awesome! The most we ever went down with at a time was 10, and it was a blast! We had hot chocolate and donuts after and then set out on our way home.
There were a lot of deer and one ran out in the middle of the road causing my roommate Beth to slam on her breaks to not hit it. Then another girl in our ward, Kate, ran into us from behind. I was sitting on Mary and got some lovely whiplash as did Mary. Beth hit her head pretty good and we were all kind of shooken up. Our FHE brothers Alec, Cam, and Tanner were all with us. Some boys in the ward pulled over and I ended up going the rest of the way home with them. My back and neck (after feeling awesome from the chiropractor) felt absolutely horrendous. Russell and Erika came to see me and Russell played the role of a doctor making sure I was okay. He sent me upstairs to my dorm to heat my back and go to sleep. Beth ended up going to the hospital to check to see if she had a concussion since she had a nasty headache. 3 of my roommates; Megan, Kristen, and Sarah, went with her. They left at midnight and got home a little bit after 3.
I was pretty sore when I woke up but I went to church where I painfully sat on chairs for 3 hours. At break the fast, our Relief Society adviser brought us the equivalent of icy hot and rubbed it on our necks and then gave us the tube. Russell stretched out my neck at grandmas and today I'm still pretty sore, but feeling better. I'm hoping that the chiropractor can help fix the remainder of my discomfort when I go later this week.
Mom and Dad get to Utah Friday night! Also on Friday I have my last scheduled intramural soccer game as well as Preference. I asked our friend Eric Holt, who we call Prince Eric. He answered with a picture collage outside my door. It said
Amanda!
And then had a picture of a sun, rain, snow, and a flower. On the back the of the flower it said
"Sunshine, rain, or snow, I'd love it if we could go!"
Megan is going with Josh, Jasmine is going with Grant, Kristen is going with Ash, and Beth is going with Jacob. Grant is tap dancing in a vocal point performance that night so Jasmine will go watch it and they'll be late. Also, I have a soccer game so I'm hoping that Prince Eric will be okay with me being a little late as well...Maybe the others will decide to come watch either me or Grant. Luckily the dance is casual so it will be okay that I can just change into different clothes and hopefully not smell too bad!
Also this week I have a 7 page paper for Human Development called my Adolescence paper. I write about 2 experiences 6 domains and 24 outcomes. Should be fun! Also I have another Interior Design Midterm this week and I already have more than 250 flash cards to study, not to mention the sketches in my book. So much fun ;)
Well I better run now, till next time :)
