In the last few pics I was trying to work the timer, it only gave me 2 seconds before it took!
Hanging out with my old roomies got me thinking about our fun times in good ole’ Rexburg, Idaho. I pretty much grew up together with Susiane; thankfully she decided to go to Ricks so I had no drama (like other’s often do) finding a great roommate. Susiane and I met Rachael our freshman year in our ghetto-but-large apartment Regent Village. I ran into Rachael (who at the time very timid) in the laundry room, she immediately apologized for having taken out my load of laundry. I didn’t mind, I shrugged and I responded “I would have done the same thing if I had been waiting.” Rachael lived in the apartment above us and after getting better acquainted with she confessed to calling her mom the night she met me. She frantically told her mother that two brown girls lived in the apartment below her, her mother reassured her that if she was nice to us, we’d be nice to her. Luckily she listened to her moms counsel; we’ve become the best of friends! I later visited Soda Springs, Idaho where Rachael is originally from, I quickly realized why she reacted the way she did when we me, there was no color out there whatsoever!
I have a ton of pictures with Rachael and Susiane, when I say ‘a ton’, I mean I have more pictures with them than I do with my own family members. I thought I’d include some of my favorite pictures from our college days. I’m so glad I left home to go to college, it was so much fun. Rexburg wasn’t always the most entertaining place to live but we made our own fun as you can see by the pictures. I also have some video footage that is super embarrassing, once I get the motivation to figure out how to put it on my blog, I will.
Yes, we ate this burger but we split it up in to four pieces. This restaurant had pictures throughout it of past customers who actually ate the whole burger. Becca lives back in her hometown Kentucky, we still visit with her once a year when she comes down to visit her in-laws.
Every Monday night after our ward FHE we had our “Tribal Meetings” our objective was to pamper ourselves which included painting our nails, waxing, plucking and face masks. I have worse pictures of when Susiane and I discovered that waxing / plucking (yes we plucked the excess hair that wasn’t removed by the wax) our pits awarded great results especially since we danced for the Polynesian Club and our pits were so musky looking from shaving so much (you would understand if you had dark hair and lighter skin). I didn’t want to embarrass ourselves Susiane so I decided not to include that picture.
