two truths and... well, a reminder

fact: i have never ever been a fan of halloween. even when i was younger i don't remember liking it that much. so this halloween i spent friday with two of my best friends eating red robin and watching jackass 3 and paranormal activity 2. then laaaaast night, we went to the haunted straw maze. im usually pretty good with scary things. i like scary movies. i like the haunted houses in kc (which are relatively top notch, ya know). basically i like being scared. however, in short, i lasted about 2 minutes in the haunted straw maze, was backed into a corner holding onto jenna where i was crying and shaking as a big scary man in a mask (who i later found out was only 16) held a chainsaw up to my face and told me to run. worst moment ever. so, with tears streaming down our faces, and shame thrust upon us, jenna and i exited the straw maze through the entrance where we were greeted by 8 and 9 yearolds (who made it out alive and unscathed) who mocked and ridiculed us. i doubt i will ever be going back to that awful place.

fact: i really like roadtrips. since ive been at school, my favorite roadtrip is to utah. and this weekend, i will be making the three and a half hour trek to salt lake city with betsy and juelaine and some unknown girl i have yet to meet to spend a glorious two and a half days in the beehive state. wanna know why? as previously discussed i am getting to see mae for the second time. it will be the end of life as i know it, considering this is their farewell tour. kinda upset about that. but, i am beyond excited. and i get to see my now married calaigh. so im thinking im pretty much really looking forward to this weekend. uh, can we please fastforward to friday at approximately 2pm?

remember: change is inevitable. it just...happens. i haven't really decided if i'm for or against change. i've always just accepted it and moved on. aaaaanyways, today brother young was released from his calling in the bishopric and it was the saddest thing. i was a pretty big fan of the guy. and we passed around cards during our 3rd hour to sign for him. and this quote was on one of them... "they may forget what you said. they may forget what you did. but they will never forget how you made them feel." just something to think about.
