Once upon a legitimately normal day...: I determined I have silly roommates...

I determined I have silly roommates...

Not just mildly silly roommates, majorly silly roommates! And yes, I do include myself (and my sister- pretty much an adopted roommate) in this "majorly silly" category. We do crazy things. Things like taking pictures at night on playgrounds, flinging ourselves back and forth inside a human rubber band, walking home in previously mentioned rubber band, squishing 6 people in a regulation-size canoe, swimming in real cold water at 2nd dam, sit in the tub together, have conversations about abstract concepts like emotions and the fall of Adam and the Big Bang theory and things that make our brains explode, create videos at midnight and feng shui in other apartments, throw epic birthday parties, take pictures like NONE OTHER, and create Life Mottos such as "Beat the Ratio."

Yes, we are silly, and proud of it. :) If you only could read half of the quotes on our quote wall and hear the stories behind them... But, as they always say, pictures are worth 1000 words... so here you are.

1st of all... for our dear friend in China-- we miss her face, but LOVE emailing and Skyping to keep in touch! :D

Playground FUN!!! :D

Human rubber band... yes, we walked all the way home in it.

Roommate birthday parties... gotta love 'em.

Yep, that's 6 of us. In a canoe. At 2nd dam.

Jungle explorers... muahahaha!

I love this angle... you can see just how close we came to swamping the little canoe of ours. hehe.

CUDDLING!!! Love it.

Camille died... but not really... but we were sad anyways.

Tin foil party!!! We scrubbed and wrapped 180 potatoes in foil... gotta love linger longers.
