So this past Friday/Saturday I went on a spontaneous trip with Emily to her hometown. It was her homecoming so she wanted to watch the football game and get some homecooked food-finally! So we drove approximately 2 hours to the small town of Rensselaer. If I think of somewhere in Wisconsin I can compare it to, I'll let y'all know. Anyways.. Emily's family owns like 5 businesses, like literally, so they are rich and you can tell as soon as you see their house/yard. It was super nice and huge, but the best part was.... her dog! It was a golden lab and reminded me of Rhylee :( so I decided to substitute Rhylee with Cooper for the day, which sounds terrible but I am like desperate for my puppy! We finally got some home cooked meals, MUCH NEEDED after a month of crappy cafeteria food- all. the. time. yuck. We had potato soup which = scalloped potatoes and ham but in soup form. Update to everyone that isn't my immediate family and doesn't know this- I HATE scalloped potatoes and ham. So I ended up like choking it down :P but it was home cooked soo ehhh I don't know, I guess I can't complain. But I'd much rather have some booyah- which no one down here has heard of, how depressing! Anyways, she drove me around to show me everything in Rensselaer that's worth seeing and then we went to her high school and when school let out we went to go pick her brother up at the middle school. After we picked him up we went to this dairy farm that had amazing ice cream, probably the best ice cream I've ever had! (Don't worry mom all the food that wasn't home cooked was paid for by the lovely Gutweins :) ) Let's see... after that we went to the football game. It made me realize how much I miss high school football, but it also made me realize how much I do NOT miss the high schoolers! Got some good quality sleeping in a comfortable non-dorm bed that night, even if I did have to share it with Emily :P. The next morning we went to Emily's brother's, Tommy, soccer game and then had lunch at a little mexican restaurant in their town. It was actually really good, I was kind of surprised. Then we headed back to our home away from home- the drive back seemed to go by way faster than the drive to her house. Uhh lets see... after we got back she realized she was unbelievably sick (possibly mono- ahhh hopefully not!). OH!! And one of my friends here got two tickets to the Colts/Steelers game this weekend and she said she remembered how much I love the Colts so she asked me if I wanted to go with her- for FREE!!! AHHH YESS! DUH I wanna go to the Colts game for free!! That's my exciting news of the week :D
Gotta go, Teen Mom's almost on!

This is a long one..
Well I had my first college exam today and I'd say it went pretty well.. I know I for sure got one wrong considering I completely blanked on it but other than that I feel confident about it. :) Oh by the way, it was Chem.. ick! I just got everything done homework wise so I figured it was about time for another blog. Sorry I've been majorly slacking, it's just that there isn't too much exciting stuff going on. I guess I can let you guys in on the roommate drama 2 doors down lol. One of my good friends here, Emily, and her roommate Jasmine (who we also hang out with) have been having some issues lately.. well I guess you can say Jasmine's been having issues with me to, actually the other way around. Okay so this last weekend we (me, Camille, Jasmine, Ashley, and Jasmine's high schooler friend Joe) decided to make a late night Mickey Ds run because we were all starving. We had to take Joe's vehicle because Jasmine's car was too small for all of us and for some reason she ended up driving.
Background info time- Jasmine's from Indianapolis area so she "knows" where things are.. I put quotes because we (me, Emily, and Camille) have come to the conclusion that she really doesn't. She takes us the complete roundabout ways of getting places, for example (one of MANY) Broad Ripple (a little shopping area mainly for college kids) is about 5 mins max driving time from Butler.. one day we went there and it took us almost a half hour to get there! Ughh. Also she JUST got a car so up until like.. last week she's never really gone driving, at least not that I know of and you can definitely tell!
Alright I tried typing this story but it's too hard to do in story form so I'll just give you the dialogue along with side notes..
Jasmine: Do you guys know what time it is? (Hello there's a clock on the dash!)
-someone gave her the time-
Camille: Jasmine, there's a clock right there..
Jasmine: I know but like when I'm driving someone else's car for the first time I can only concentrate on driving and nothing else. (ONE- we were at a stop light when she asked! and TWO- you can't glance in your peripheral vision, really?!)
- we get to Mickey Ds, order our food together considering you can only have one order going through the drive-thru. Me and Camille give our 2 bucks to Jasmine and Ashley gives them a 10 because that's all she had (hers came to like 2 bucks also) and Joe gives Ashley a 5 back, Jasmine's comes to like 4 something...
Me: Jasmine how much did you put in? (asked because Ashley didn't get all her change back)
Jasmine: 2 bucks.. I can put in more if you want (no shit I want you to! Yours was more than 2 bucks! Ashley shouldn't be paying for your chicken nuggets!)
Me: Wasn't yours more than 2?
Jasmine: I think so.
Me: Just get the receipt so we can get it all straight
-blah blah she ended up paying and Ashley got the other 3 bucks back that she was supposed to get. So we go down a back street to leave and there's a taxi stopped at a stop sign approximately.. maybe 20ft ahead of us, Jasmine for some reason isn't slowing down.. at all
(another side note- a few days ago we were all driving in Emily's vehicle and every once in awhile she wouldn't realize either A- it was a red light or B- the vehicle in front of us was stopping, so I would say 'stop' everytime and they all appreciated it considering none of us wanted to die lol.)
So anyways.. she's not slowing down so I say 'stop' (not meanly, just as a reminder so we don't crash into the taxi..) and she completely FREAKS OUT at me! Camille can attest for this- she had absolutely no reason to freak out whatsoever, especially how she did. I was soooo mad and she is soo lucky that I know how to bite my tongue sometimes, otherwise I would've went off on her! So whatever I didn't say anything. (another side note- Jasmine is supposed to be a year younger but she skipped kindergarten. also she always talks to us like she is better than us and its sooooo annoying!) That was my issue with her, oh and also her friend Joe was talking crap about Emily so Camille bitched him out for it hahaha it was fantastic. (Joe= dbag!)
Okay so back to the actual roommate drama.. After that whole incident I told Emily what had happened because she wasn't there and wanted to let her know. So apparently that night (Joe stayed in their room along with two of Emily's friends from HS-Ben and Nick) and Emily was telling Ben about it because she thought everyone else was asleep. Wrong! Joe was listening the whole time and told Jasmine that we have all been talking shit about her (again Joe=dbag considering all we did was tell what happened, it was facts!) so it was a tad awkward in their room after that night. So last night Emily was in our room watching tv with us and what not, when she was leaving her room Jasmine asked her if she had her key with or if she should prop the door and Emily told her no so prop it. Around 11 Emily was going to go in her room and get ready for bed and go to sleep, turns out Jasmine left the room and locked her out! She was soo mad so she called Jasmine and Jasmine tells her she left to go get McDonalds.. (by this time it was around 1130) so she said she'd be on her way back. 1215ish comes around and Jasmine walks into our room and says (all cocky) "Did you want in or what?" worst thing she could possibly of said. By this time Emily was so pissed off- i mean it was past midnight already and she was keeping us up to because she had to wait in our room! It was extremely frustrating. So I guess Emily grabbed her stuff, went in the bathroom to get ready, came back in her room (saw that Jasmine was working on homework), shut the lights off on her and went to bed. I laughed really hard when she told me that- but Jasmine seriously deserved it! I mean who does that?! She knew Emily didn't have her keys and she didn't even bother telling her she was leaving so Em could get them! Common courtesy Jasmine! Ughh. So now it's been EXTREMELY awkward in their room, unfortunately. Emily basically lives with us now haha but we don't mind, or blame her.
So that's about it. We're heading over to Atherton for some supper.
Sorry it's so long :) and I'll try to update this more often!
