Nostalgia At It's Best (or worst depending...)

For some reason, I've been caught up in memories today. I found a few fun and interesting things. As well as some rather embarrassing things (note to self: throw away some of those old letters/pictures before the girls are old enough to read them and judge you for them). Anyways, I thought I'd share just a few:

This is me my first year at Ricks
(You might not realize it, but the Banana's in Pajamas are very important to this picture)

Goals (Winter Semester 1997)
-get 4.0
-read scriptures every day
-say morning and night prayers
-not kiss any boys:)

A note that was left on my cubical at the library
(at Ricks):
"You are a baby Humming Bird"

My letter from the Dean:
I appreciated the opportunity of discussing your violation of the code of Honor with you and trust you have a renewed commitment to abide by the Code of Honor. This letter will serve as an official reprimand and warning that any further violations will result in serious disciplinary action which could include dismissal from Ricks College.
(Just to be clear--my "violation" was COMPLETELY innocent!!!)

And the greatest FIND:
The Things We Hate
(by Anita and Mykalee)
this is only excerpts...for obvious reasons

1. The Male Species
-boys who never write
-boys who never call
-boys that lie
-boys that we love but can't be with
-boys that think they are God's gift

-boys that don't carry us to class when it's icy
-boys who aren't in Math or Science
-boys who are Business majors
-boys who don't know what they want
-boys that are so dang cute you can't stand it
-boys who are engaged or married
-boys with bad hair

As a disclaimer let me just say; we were having a BAD day (and apparently had been wronged by a few boys recently). This list is 5 pages long:) Just be glad I didn't post our "Everyone Who Loves Us and Wishes Polygamy Was Still In Effect..." Ahh...memories!
Me and my roomie/partner in crime

I am laughing so hard I am crying!!! I had forgotten most of that list!!
I don't think I got a letter from the dean?! Maybe I did and I have it in a box somewhere.... I DO remember how scared we were when we had to go see him! :)
Who was in the laundry room with a girl?? Was it Robbie? Remember his feet????
I just told Katie about the hole in our wall where we kept all our best stuff- like our lists!! And our brownies or soda we didn't exactly want to share...
We used to laugh SO hard. All the time, expect when we were over analyzing our personal problems.... .like how some great guys were too short or had too big of nostrils to be attractive!
I can't wait to see you. Have you guys been to Sea World lately?? When is your kids' spring break? We are going to Sea World APril 3rd and DIsneyland the mon-thurs. before, do you have annual passes? Let me know how we can work it out.
