ok here is the weekly post...
Monday: Nothing exciting. Lots of classes and chem lab. i forgot to buy lab goggles so i was running around my floor, desperately trying to find someone who has some. Thanks to one of the Stacies i was safe from the embarrassment of having to raise my hand to get some from the prof.
Tuesday: Sleeping in is amazing!! i love Tuesdays because i can sleep in until 9 or later because i don't have class until 10:30. its awesome. Prelude sucks bad. My prof... well he's not even a prof, he's a worship leader, is soooo weird. we always start laughing at something that he does and he gets so embarrassed. We had another dorm date with 2nd Bolt but i didn't go to dinner with them, instead i went to dinner with Amy, AnnaMarie, Jordan, Matt, and Seth. except Matt and Seth ditched us until we found them in the dinning hall. but yea that was fun. later we played kick-the-can.. very interesting. it wasn't working so well so we decided to play sardines but it took forever because we played in such a large area that it took people forever to find people. So we resorted to playing red rover... i don't really like that game. my arms hurt so bad and i accidentally took out Emily when it was my turn to go. I have to say my favorite moment was when jj got clothes lined. that was fun.
Wednesday: many classes... chemistry sucks... religion is funny... anatomy is interesting. I had Anatomy lab and had to take a quiz on the axial skeleton. i did ok... i can't spell. I was soooo antsy during lab while the prof was talking. as soon as she was done i skipped the studying session and flew to the volleyball game. It was against Hope... so intense. they won the first game and then we won the next three games... it was good game. I'm so glad i got to go. Kayla, my suit mate, almost played but the other girl who plays the same position as her played really well so she didn't get to play. that made my day. then we, shiloh, stina, rebekah, and i watched the senior video. it was really fun. and i didn't get as sentimental as i thought i would. then i went to dorm worship. it was pretty fun.
Thursday: again... classes.
Friday: ... more classes. Boring stuff. then came the fun stuff. I left for the dorm retreat at camp roger. We piled into cars and all headed over to the camp. We set up our stuff in the cabins and headed over to the lake/pond thing... its either a very large pond or a very small lake... but i don't thing that there is a river attached so it must be a pond. but yea... everyone was swimming and canoeing. it was fun. We headed for dinner and then to chapel. The lady talked forever. but overall it was good. Then we play a massive game of charades. pretty fun. we went swimming at night. it was really cold but it was fun. We played UNO for a while and then we just hung out and talked. about 3 in the morning it started to rain and we had a mini thunder storm. we went to bed at 4:30.
Saturday: we ate breakfast and then packed up. I tried to do homework but it didn't really work out that well because i was so tired. We went to the men's soccer game against Hope and of course we won... except i didn't get to see the exciting second half. :( Me and AnnaMarie watched Saw with the guys... it was pretty scary, but it was actually really good. it wasn't as gory as i thought it would be. AnnaMarie is soooo jumpy that she would scare me every single time she would hear a little sound.
Sunday: I went to church with Amy, Chris, and Aaron. the service was better than the last one i went to. Then me and Amy laid out in the grass and enjoyed the hot sun while studying. it was fun but it was hard to study because it was so hot. I took a nap which was really relaxing. I went to LOFT and the chaplain of course had to be really awkward as usual. Then it was bed time.
So that was my week... nothing really exciting except 2 wins against Hope and the dorm retreat.
oh i have a new word for the week: Sucksicles (new name for Popsicles)

PS. I am the official girls champion of assassin. at approximately 9:12 pm, while watching Heroes, shiloh was shot by me! it was awesome!

This Week
ok so this week was eventful... well maybe just the weekend.
Tuesday: Psych class was dull except for the fact that we watch like 15 movies every class.. well more like 3 but whatever. then i had a nice gap for more homework. and then it was off to prelude... the most retarded class in the world. luckily we got out early and so i made it to my dorm in time for dinner w/ 1st Beets. Then we went to Kayla's vb game. it was a good game even though she didn't play. Then we had a fun time playing capture the flag as all the people who had night classes walked in the middle of our game.
Wednesday: Lots of classes.. more homework. oh i had my first anatomy lab. it was really overwhelming because she basically just listed off all the bones that we need to know for the next week. Then we had time to play around with the bones and study them. It was actually pretty fun.. partly because we made it fun.
Thursday: Classes... more chemistry crap. Psych with more movies. And it was the first SI (supplemental instruction) meeting. basically it is tutoring with 10 people. They do this because it is a really hard class so this prevents like 80 people asking for tutors. It wasn't very informative because it was all review stuff that we did in chemistry the whole year in high school but it didn't hurt to practice.
Friday: More classes. I had a chemistry quiz which i got only one wrong. It was a stupid mistake too because apparently i can't subtract 11 from 23. but that's ok I'm proud of myself. That night Amy, AnnaMarie, Jordan, Matt, Seth and I (oh and Chris and Jasper randomly decided to go too) went to Margarita Grill to club night. Pretty sure it was a ton of fun. There were some scary people so I'm so glad that we took guys with us. Then we went to IHOP and hung out. We had this really weird waiter who likes to give people high fives and sounds gay.
Saturday: I slept in!! first day to actually sleep in! Ate some lunch. Did tons of Chem homework. Then we had a floor date with 3rd VanDellen (sorry shi we stole your guys for a night). We went to the sand dunes and had a bonfire. it was really fun except i didn't like the tackle game. my neck still hurts. We had awesome smores and just hung out. It was soooo cold. the sand was freezing and it got in our shoes and our feet were freezing!
Sunday: I went to Woodlawn with Zenobia (my wall mate). Her grandparents ended up being there too. They took us out to brunch which was really yummy! Then it was homework time once again. I needed a study break so i went up to Amy and AnnaMarie's room to distract them from their homework... which they weren't even doing. Somehow we ended up learning the Soulja Boy dance since some of the guys were learning it. We decided to go over there and pretend that we didn't know it and then suddenly bust out the dance. it didn't work very well because they just thought that we were good dancers and picked it up really fast (when really we spent like 2 hours learning it). it was fun. I also went to LOFT (evening worship). It was really good. Oh and boys.. you all need to read Ruth 2... you should be like Boaz and treat women they way that he treated Ruth. That is what i learned from LOFT.
That was my week. Not super eventful but still fun. I hope that everyone's week was awesome. I miss you all very much.

Summary
ok so since it's almost midnight and i'm pretty tired, i'm going to just do a quick over view of this past week.
Monday (Labor Day): I went to the beach with Amy, AnnaMarie, and Angela. It was really fun. We jumped off the pier like 10 times and finally got the guys to do it (chickens).
Tuesday: First day of classes. I only had one class, Psychology. The teacher was strange but funny. It should be a fun class
Wednesday: 3 classes, Chemistry, Anatomy, and Religion. chemistry scares me at times... maybe its just the flash backs from taking it with Mr. Baas. Anatomy should be fun because the teacher is hilarious, but its hard work and a lot of memorizing. Religion should be ok. the teacher is again, strangely funny, but he knows a lot, especially since he lived in Israel for several years. oh and of course homework... lots of reading. we also had initiation. We were told to wear old clothes and a blindfold. We were put into several trains of people and we were lead through the night and the sprinklers by the lovely sophomores. After about 15 minutes of not knowing where we were and stepping in puddles and running into branches we were told to do the macarena and then take off our blind fold. We all looked up (with red, watery eyes from the blindfolds) to see all the first bolt guys standing around us all dressed up with candles and roses. they then proceeded to serenade us with a little areosmith. that was fun
Thursday: Chem and Psych. chem was better than the first day but mostly because its all review of what we did in HS... plus more homework.
Friday: Chem, Anatomy, and Religion. Chem=scariness. Anatomy=awesome. Religion=laughter
We also had "Battle for the Bye"... and guess who was in it... MOI! yes i participated in the competition, which consisted of running the dorm pres. on a mattress from one side to the other, after the guys carried the treasurer. Oh wait... who won you ask?? That's right BHT and it was all because of me... not really, i tripped at the last minute but luckily we were already across the finish line!
Saturday (CHAOS DAY): friggin tight! luckily i was already up before people came around with the pots and pans. We all got face painted in our awesome Jumanji theme. We then met The Duke and heard an inspiring pep talk. After that, we marched onto the field looking ferociously awesome with our spots, stripes and animal prints. We then proceeded to sing the awesome BHT song and chant things like "Bizzle Hizzle Tizzle What?" and "Bolt(guys) Hynes(hynes girls) Timmer(timmer gals)" etc. We took 2nd in the tug of war which gave us 2nd Place overall. you know we are tight... plus the only reason that BV won is because they got the Ninja Turtles theme. That was an exciting day
Sunday: I went to church with Amy and her friends, had a lovely lunch, and then hit the books for most of the day. Some girls on my floor watched She's The Man and ordered pizza. it was pretty fun. I also met my RA's boyfriend. I had heard so much about him so it was fun to finally meet him. We also had "Hot Seat" where we could ask the person who was in the "Hot Seat" any questions we wanted. Since it was the first one Karah went... pretty entertaining.
Monday: another boring day of classes... plus a lab. i felt like a retard because we kept having to ask how to do the problems. I dislike chemistry... but i really can't complain since this is the only chem class i'll ever have to take.
Tomorrow: Psych and Prelude classes. then dinner floor date with 1st Beets. then i'm going to my suite mate's vb game and i think that a bunch of us are going to make signs and try to get some of the 1st Beets guys to go with. After that its Capture the Flag time with 1st Beets and 1st Timmer. it should be a good day.
This didn't really turn out to be a summary but that's ok. I hope you all have a great week!

P.S. Happy Birthday Jillian... even though it was yesterday and i already told you.

Slip 'n Slides, Duck Poo, and ice cream
Well, Quest is over and it kinda makes me sad because i already miss hanging out with our group. it'll be ok because we still have Prelude. GROUP 19! DREAM TEAM! YEAH! so we didn't win the great ball challenge but that's ok we (the people that actually showed up) bonded really well, unlike most groups. The ending ceremony was funny and we got to see Josh and some of the other OLs to a little stomp dance. Then we had the candle lighting ceremony and "floated our fears away" in the Sem Pond (pond near the seminary buildings). Then we had a school wide dance party. (oh yea three days in a row of dance parties) it was fun for a while. it got annoying because of all the freakers dancing on top of people but w/e (3rd Bolt's party was better). So today was a relax day. We went to the FAC for the worship service they had there. it was pretty cool. then lunch, then i went to the dorm mixer. it was fun. we had a slip 'n slide and mafia game and kickball game. Amy, Annamarie, and I decided that we wanted to actually go swimming, and since we don't have a pool right now, we went to the Sem Pond. We dragged some guys with us but the losers wouldn't go with us. it wasn't very deep at first but then we started to go out farther and we got up to our stomachs. The bottom was soooo squishy and nasty but it was funny. then we played Ultimate Frisbee with a bunch of people which was pretty fun, except for the fact that i just jogged around pretending that i was actually playing. Afterward, we showered and hung out and talked to people. We went to LOFT, the worship service on Sunday nights. it was really good. And after that we decided to go to Gaslight Village and ate ice cream at Jersey Junction. it is sooooo good!! We went to the lake and hung out at the park, took crazy pictures and laughed really hard. I don't want classes to start :( school won't be fun anymore. but at least I'll have a set schedule. but yea... i miss you all. Life isn't the same without you all. I hope you are all having fun!

Fun!
Life is so crazy but fun right now. Me and my roommate get along great. i don't think that we will be best friends but that's ok. it would help if she didn't call her boyfriend 10 times a day. if you want to know what i did yesterday, check out stina's blog. today, we did our service learning where we (only 5 of the group members haha) sat around and read creepy books like "Mr. Mumps" and made goat noises... "Mmaaa" while waiting for the kids to arrive. once they did we read to them and just hung out. Pretty sure we got the best job. We played Frisbee.. if that makes sense... do you play Frisbee. i guess you throw a freizbee. anyways, you get the point. Next, we went to Rebekah and Sarah's room where we screamed our heads off watching Disturbia. it was a tight movie and my throat hurts really bad. i went back to my dorm to hear of a dance party on 3rd Bolt. It was fun but the songs got old. Oh and to all you "Nordy" girls (in response to the giant poster) 3rd Bolt does not want you... you know they love 1st Timmer. get over it.
