Oh, the good ole' days...

The Onion | Money Spent For Old Times Sake


BROCKWAY, PA—Harkening back to an abandoned custom that had long existed only in memory, 28-year-old unemployed graphic designer Leslie Gordon exchanged currency for physical goods at a local shopping establishment Friday. "I was reminiscing about all the good times I used to have buying things with money, so I figured why not give it another go?" said Gordon, happily reliving the once-common act of selecting an item of her choosing, taking it to the register for payment, and then becoming its sole owner. "Look, they even still have those barcodes like I remember." As a result of her nostalgic splurge, Gordon will be forced to subsist entirely on maple-syrup- flavored Quaker Oats until next week.
I feel for you Leslie...

7X3

Well, it is official.

21.

The age of absolute power.

(Minus the whole rent a car thing but who does that ever.)

I do not feel like I'm 21. Several reasons why I am still 7 years old...

1) I still enjoy coloring...with crayons.
2) TGIF was the best thing on television...ever.
3) Ice cream is an acceptable dinner substitute.
4) Summertime is the best time.
5) I enjoy playing dress up
6) I can't talk to boys.

Oh dear...I think it's time for an intervention...

MUN: The Real Fight Begins!

Sorry about the lack of updates...I can't even finish talking about NYC...that is how busy I have been... So let me give you the highlights of the MUN competition. This was my committee-or at least most of it.
And these are just some of the awesome friends I made! Fran and Felix (on the left) are from Germany and were representing South Africa and Adrien and Caroline are from France and were representing the delegation from the UK. Lots of good memories! (Times Square hikes, healthcare chats, late night dancing, raspberry hot chocolate! :) )

Here is the entire BYU team at the United Nations!


And this is the best news....

We totally won!!! :D BYU won three Outstanding team awards which means we are in the top 1% of all university MUN teams around the world! And then me and my partner, Jenny, totally got the Outstanding delegate award in our committee just because we are that cool!
