I'm SO tired because it's really late and it took forever for my pictures to load so please forgive me for not going into too much detail here. It was kind of a stressful week with things going on and then school starting. I was totally looking forward to heading out of Rexburg and down to Provo for the weekend. My really good friend and Disney roommate Alyssa and I headed out friday evening after finishing a majority of our homework. The drive was long but relatively smooth. Over the weekend we were staying with my Disney room-roommate Trysten. She and her sister live in their grandparent's basement and they were out of town for the weekend so it was all us!
Saturday, we woke up and went to breakfast at Kneaders where they have the worlds best french toast! We met up with some of the other Disney girls for a short while. It was fun but we all agreed that it was weird seeing each other outside of Disney. After a while, we went our sepparate ways for some to do homework and others to get errands done. Alyssa and I went to a mall and got our nails done... then of COURSE we HAD to go to the Disney Store!!! It was SO heartbreaking!!! We got very homesick for Disney World. Afterwards we all met up at Trysten's to formulate a plan. We decided we were hungry again so we would go out and grab something to eat at Panda Express. As we were driving down there we saw this big banner across Center St. that said there was an Indian Festival going on in Spanish Fork. We were feeling adventurous so we decided to head over there.
Trysten and her sister Kalen had lived in India before so they had all of these gorgeous clothes. We convinced them to wear their Sari's and they even gave us some authentic "Puffy pants" and everyone got a jewel to wear on our brow. We felt pretty legit. The festival was held at the temple where they have Harri Krishna or the festival of colors. It was sweet! They had Llamas roaming around that you could pet. There were dancers to watch, henna tattoos (although crazy expensive), food, shopping and dancing inside the temple. We looked around, and went in to the temple and danced. It was crazy fun! And a LOT of weird people. Trysten and Kalen bought some henna stuff. They knew how do to it themselves and we figured it would be cheaper and we'd get bigger designs that way. After hanging around for about an hour and a half we headed back to Trysten's place.
We decided that for the night, we would hang around, eat junk food (of course) and watch a movie. Trysten was such a sweetheart and bought this awesome chocolate cake and TONS of sugar! But of course, since it was my big 21st birthday we HAD to play a drinking game! No worries, there was no alcohol involved. But since we were all Disney nerds we decided that every time someone said anything Disney related or any inside joke from our time in Disney World, we all had a chug a dixie cup or liquid. We started with the easy stuff; water, apple juice, lemonade, etc. But when that ran out we moved on to the harder stuff; coke, sprite, orange soda, or milk. It got to be a lot harder than we thought. But we decided that the end result would be that whomever peed first had to streak outside in their bra and underwear. The game continued on for most of the night until Katie was about to burst! Only she had just gotten her Henna tattoo done and it wasn't dry, so Trysten's sister Kalen sacrificed herself for Katie. Katie changed into a robe and Trysten put on this Sleeping Beauty wig she got in DW so none of their neighbors would notice. We lined up on the side of the road and Kalen BOOKED IT! There were no cars as she was running out, but then as she was heading back in, a car came toward us! That made her run even faster! She grabbed her robe and ran straight into the house! We were all so shocked we just kind of stood there. The car stopped and we saw there was a guy inside it! He was looking at us so we RAN into the house and he kept honking at us and then sped away! What a rush!
After that, we all totally crashed, after a scramble for everyone to empty their bladders, we turned on the movie Juno and we all fell asleep watching it. Alyssa and I had to leave in the morning around 930 and everyone else had early church but we all crashed around 1.
It was a great night and I had such a wonderful time with those girls. I had missed them terribly. We always had good times in Florida and I'm so lucky that I was able to have them with me on my birthday.
This picture has a lot of meaning, we used to take these kind of pictures when we were bored and stuck in line at the parks, but we never got one with all 6 of us, here we succeeded
