Literally painted with the colors of the wind. this past weekend my roommates and i drove down to utah and visted various places. it was quite an adventure let me tell you. again, i shall bullet point events. its effective, simple, lovely and of good report. i will start off on friday.

.

wrong way - before we started out on our journey to utah, we got on the freeway. then we had to do a a freeway change. this change ALWAYS trips me up. i always ask if i am going the right way, then i always go the wrong way. that led us on a slight detour. since idaho is rural and we are in the middle of nowhere, there was not an exit for like 20 mins. once we found an exit we had to go another few mins back to the freeway change and then we were on track.

.

china.... more like crappa - soo this isnt raciest, i love chinese stuff. i speak some chinese. wo xiao ni. i think that means i love you....or something weird. anywho. while driving, i was hungry, we were hungry, and ali is gluten intolerant. so we had to find a place that had some gluten free food. my brother suggested a chinese place called manderian. it happened to have a gluten free menu and after some contenious conversations, manderian it was. we had a roommate who had a bad experiance with chinese food. but she is lovely and of good report and she went to manderian still. well. we get there. have to wait 30 mins to be seated, nbd. im pretty patient. when seated no waiter talks to us for like 10 mins. as that 10 mins went by, the table who was seated a minute after us, got their food. as our drinks came, the other table was done and they left. so that was frustrating, especially because we didnt get our food until an hour later. yeah. no joke. we timed it sir.

.

the square of the temple - since dinner took forever, we got to temple square when everything was already closed. i was a little disappointed, but we still got to walk around and have a good time. i climbed a 6in ledge by myself. rocked it.

.

north carolina - so after the night of fiascos we got to the place we were staying. that was great. oh wait, first we got a in-n-out milkshake. soooooooooo good. we slept there and woke up around 9.

.

kk's son, kk's - we wanted breakfast. we got a dozen krispy kreme donuts. we each ate 4. end.

.

back to the future - at 9 we went back to temple square and went to the salt lake temple to do bapstims for the dead! and let me tell you, A.W.E.S.O.M.E. the inside of the temple was amazing. so much history in there. i was loving and memorizing as much as i could. i cannot wait to go back. it was also really cool that me and my roommates were able to be in the temple together and enjoy preforming ordinances. after baptisms we rocked around the square for a few mintues.

.

asthma - then we rushed to spanish fork to attend the festival of colors. it was crazy sir, crazy. basically what it is is this: the hindu culture celebrates something and how they celebrate is by tossing colored chalk in the air and at people. lets just say, i got rocked. before we even go to the festival, some guy chucked green chalk in my face, as i was talking and my eyes open. hahah it was awesome. i loved it.

.

Cj's sir - CARLS JR. mmmm i love their famous star burgers. sooo tasty and sooo yummy. and i could each like 500932 of them.

.

bud not buddy - then i visited my brother dressed in my chalk. he wouldnt hug me. thats alright, i wouldnt of hugged me either. i got a hug from my cousin Adny though. so sweet.

.

HSM 1,2,3, Wicked, Hairspray, etc. - driving home singing everything we had. yay!

.

DISCLAIMER: This next section contains spiritual things.

slizzard with a blizzrd - so as driving home we hit a CRAZY snow storm. no joke. i was driving. it looked like we were going into light speed like in star wars. yeah i used that reference and no, thats not the spiritual thing. so i was really nervous. i didnt show it though because if i got nervous, then the whole car would have gotten nervous. i jsut kept singing and said a little prayer. after an amen and a few mintues, i felt a overwhelming sense of comfort. and then i heard in my head 'slow down' and 'its ok'. needless to say i was comforted and we got back safely and all in one piece.

.

so that was the weekend of fun. i'm really glad i had the oppertunity to have a fun spiritual weekend. i love getting closer to my roommates and just thankful for them and our friendship.

seriously,

kimmah

p.s. 11 days til spring break. : )
