College life


So this coming week holds my first tests and I'm pretty sure next week I have a test in each class and a paper due. And yet it is 10:26 right now and I haven't started any homework. I finally got my bike so I can get to lacrosse practices (cuz I made the team) and then it was Hi'ilei's birthday so of course we had to do something...and oh did we do something. 
Back home we had this tradition of kidnapping people on their birthday and bringing them to some place fun. So, why not continue it in college? Only we kinda vamped it up a little. We had everything planned out perfectly but Hi'ilei decided to leave FHE early so we had to improvise just a little. So Hoku (my roommate) and I had the boys in our group sing to her while we came from around the back to take her down, literally take her down. 
We may have frightened some innocent bystanders but all is fun and games when kidnapping. After kidnapping her and physically carrying her to the car, which was an adventure of its of own, we brought her to sonic. May not seem like the greatest birthday adventure but Hawai'i doesn't have sonics and she's been dying to go. 






We may not have many friends outside of our little Polynesian and polypockets (aka wannabes) group but tonight everyone wanted to be friends with us. No lie. I mean seriously how cool do we look (this may be a rhetorical question)? And I'd like to show the oddeness of BYU. While carrying her a pretty long distance we passed a court of basketball players and I don't think anyone even flinched at the odd scene before them. Gotta love BYU. Here is the final product of our struggle to get Hi'ilei into the car. And tests?? What are those?

Congrats on making the team! And I told you that you can do all sorts of weird things and nobody even raises an eyebrow. Glad you're having fun!
