My roommates are really great. Today, we went to dinner at our Bishopric Member's house. When he heard that we'd lived together last year, he said, "Wow! That's lucky that you liked each other enough to live together again." Last year, I was especially grateful for my roommates. This year, I haven't remembered how lucky I am. Hence, a picture blog post of some of our good times together.

| Annabelle is wearing a pedometer right now for our one her health classes. Kind of like she's wearing an insulin pump! |

| We have All-Sports Passes together. At the first game of the season, I wanted a picture with Brandon Davies. He's in the background. With my large face in the foreground. Thank you, Marcel, for taking the picture. I love it. :) |

| Last year, we all decided to wear our full running suits to the gym. You can just call me Sue Sylvester. |

| Everyone looks terrible in this picture. I love it! |

My roommates are just fantastic! Here's a little blurb about each of my current roommates.
Mama Ang: Angie is from Orem and is almost graduated. She is probably the nicest person I have ever met. She makes friends fast, mostly because she is genuinely interested about people. She always remembers things that I'm doing and always asks me about them. Sometimes after we talk about me for a long time, she'll tell me something that she's done that is way cooler and more important than anything I have. She is so unselfish and will always take time to listen to anyone. She is beautiful and the best friend anyone could wish for.
Marcel: When I first met Marcel, I thought that she was on the BYU Soccer Team. I'm not really sure why. She is from Sandy and she is a fantastic swimmer. She likes to run. In fact, she was telling me about her first half-marathon the other day and she didn't even train. That's just crazy. We get into deep conversations sometimes and I always learn a lot. I love to complain to Marcel, because the same things that annoy me generally annoy her. Even though we will do this, I know that Marcel is a really positive person. She is so awesome, has some really great music, and is awesome to talk to! We've had some crazy memories together. Last year, we would always try to cook together. Except that neither of us had any idea what we were doing. I'm pretty sure we both called our Moms when we were trying to cook trying to figure out what we were doing. Somehow, everything we made always turned out okay. One time, we ate some food that was probably rotten, but then we drank a whole bunch of water and neither of us got sick. :) Marcel is so much fun to hang out with.
Annabelle: Annabelle is my immediate roommate. We do weird things together. At night, we watch scary TV shows that make us scream. We love to sing and dance to our music in the mornings. Every Friday, we wear each other's clothes. When we leave each other to go to class, she always says, "Make good choices!" and I respond with, "Return with Honor!" If I leave or I don't see her for awhile, she'll always write me a note saying that she missed me. We love the same music, which is just pretty convenient. We love to go work out together in the mornings. Annabelle shows her love for others by serving them. She pretty much always does the dishes and takes out the trash. She always lets other people use her stuff. She is willing to do anything to serve others, and she has one of the strongest testimonies of missionary work of anyone I've ever met. We laugh together, we cry together (probably more than is normal), we hang out together, and we play jokes on each other. She is one of the best friends that I've ever had.
So, thank you, Penrose 88 and now Cinnamon Bears 64. I'm so grateful that I have gotten to know some truly incredible girls.
