Harvest

Wow! I am so way behind I don't even know where to begin! I think I'll probably just skip a few things and just jump from dance to dance until I'm caught up.

Ok so Harvest:

As a part of Student Body Committee, we are in charge of Harvest and Morp dances. The theme we chose for Harvest is "Where the Wild Things Grow" (You know the book). We decorated the front room where you give tickets and such was decorated like a bedroom. When you walked into the Gym it was like walking from under a bed into a huge jungle. One wall was the night sky the others had tall grass and trees and monsters dancing about. We had some eyes looking out from the darkness as well. In the middle we had a huge sail boat and a bunch of kiddie pools draped with green visqueen stuff and put some nets on top of those. Then we put little fake candles in the pools. (It's a marsh) Our false ceiling was a bunch of vines with a few monsters hanging down here and there.

While we were decorating I mentioned to Lacey that I was going to go home and sleep (This was the same day as the dance auditions for the musical, so I was exhausted!) Lacey asked if I didn't have a day activity and I told her I hadn't been asked. Within about five minutes Megan calls me to see if I would like to go with her to Harvest. Wow! What a coincidence right? Not. I totally laughed at Lacey after I got off the phone.

Well I knew that the theme for the group was BYU and U of U fans and I had to support my team right. I went home and grabbed my BYU-I shirt (the only BYU shirt I own) and called Jameson to give me his hat. He obliged (how nice, huh?) Well, just so you know, this group of people that I'm with are the popular kids and I don't fit with the popular kids very well. It's not that we clash, they are just hard to talk to. They are all about the here and now and what's happening nearby while I like to think of concepts and stuff happening in the world and stuff.



Megan picked me up and I learned that we were fitting twelve people into an eight person vehicle. Fun right? I didn't mind too much but Megan, who had just taken a defensive driving course, was dying. But it was a very polite way of dying I might add. Anyway, we got to Kate's house unscathed and I found out we had about 15 or so couples. FUN!

We played a big version of life. The first step was choosing a college. We determined our outfits could do that for us. It's a good thing Megan was a BYU fan. Actually I think we had a total of five UofU fans in the entire group.

Anyway then we had to find a mate and propose to them. That was easy. Our dates! We gave eachother ring pops and vowed to be together at least for the rest of the night. Then we got our jobs. We picked out of a stack of cards. The average salary was $60,000. Some people only got a dollar. Megan picked her card first. She was a brain surgeon, $300,000 bucks! We're set! It didn't matter what I picked. Well I picked and I was a movie star, $300,000 bucks as well! The two top cards in one couple nice right? We used our salary to determine the number of grahm crackers we would get to build ourselves a home. Well, Megan and I put our creative minds together and had the best floor plan ever. But no one would let us use the glue guns. They resented the fact we were rich. So we layed our grahm crackers flat and built a giagantic wall around our piece of cardboard. We scaled our place to where the Empire State Building was a candy corn. (Megan and I decided that we owned New York)Anyway, it didnt' really matter because after all of our (mostly my) hard work, Megan and I decided to destroy it with a few karate chops.

Then we when to Arianne's house and had pizza. "Feasting upon the fruits of your labors" part of life.

The dance was great (our mid-life crisis) Megan and I both felt like our pictures were retarded because we were both in the middle of expressions when the light flashed but when we got them back, they turned out ok. (Which was actually a disappointment, I wanted to see us being retarded) After the dance we hurry and cleaned up since half of the group was part of the SBC. We then headed over to Rachel's house and had Marie Calendars Pie. (This was our retirement.) It was good and half of us (the SBC) fell asleep on the couches in the middle of conversations. The other half assured us it was hilarious. Then we got home and I slept.
