I had the most incredible weekend! Even though it started out with studying in the library all day Friday, it soon turned for the better. A bunch of friends and I went to the women's soccer game against University of Utah. We got there an hour and a half early so that we had front row seats. It was totally worth it! The entire game was neck and neck then in the last two minutes, Utah's goalie roughed one of our girls pretty aggressively. So in our favor, we got a penalty kick and won the game. Even though we students weren't allowed to rush the field, you can pretty much assume that is exactly what happened. It was super awesome!
After the game Hailey and I when to a mormon "party" on campus and got to take pictures with the Cosmo statue. Once we grew tired of that, we went up into Provo Canyon for a "bonfire" everyone was going to. I put bonfire in quotations because no one actually brought firewood. But that's okay because it was super awesome hanging out with so many new people. After a couple hours of that we were tired of socializing and dancing. We went back to the dorms, grabbed a bunch of blankets and laid in the grass to watch Pitch Perfect. The spider bites that were accumulated during this event was totally worth it! Turns out I didn't even get home until 5:00 in the morning!!!! I amazed myself. Seriously, I have never stayed up that late before in my life. Not even when we were in Disneyland for Grad Night. Needless to say I slept in until noon the next day.
I was awaken from my deep slumber by numerous phone calls telling me I needed to hurry and get in line for the the football game. As we were walking toward the game, some Texas fans wanted to take a pictures with us thinking they were eventually going to make fun of our devout school spirit. Then the forecast changed. The day went from being ridiculously hot with the bright sun blazing down on us to feeling like we were standing in the middle of a hurricane. Clouds were tumbling in, winds were blowing every which direction, and the rain was coming down in
bucketfuls. ( That one is for you mom). So while the stands cleared out, we stayed in the tempest for at least 30 minutes continuing to be drenched and freezing from head to toe. When we got back to the dorm, we had to ring our clothes out and they
still aren't all the way dry! It was the awesomest experience. I think I may be catching a cold from it, but after seeing BYU crush Texas, I can't complain.
