Another Great Weekend

This weekend was a very friend filled weekend. Friday we went to dinner and a movie with some friends to celebrate a friend's birthday. Saturday we attended a goodbye party for a friend who got a new job and a retirement party. The retirement party was a surprise party for the campus ministry director of the Wesley Foundation that Carlos and I were involved in during college. She was completely surprised. There were a couple of hundred people there, many of whom flew into town for her party. It couldn't have gone any better. It was great to see a lot of our old friends.

Yesterday, after church, we met up with all of the Wesley Foundation people again. We hiked up A-Mountain and had some singing and communion at the top. After hiking back down we met up at the campus director's house and had a cookout. It was very enjoyable, and once again, so great to see so many of our old friends!

Disturbing :(

Easter

Easter weekend was great. My parents drove to my place for a performance Friday night, and then Saturday morning we all went to my sister's home. We spent Sat-Mon there. My Dad and sister spent a lot of time doing house/yard maintenance. Carlos spent a lot of time playing with my sister's ipod touch. Mom and I spent a lot of our time cooking and cleaning.

My mom prepared an egg hunt/scavenger hunt. It was tons of fun, and of course before that we had to decorate the eggs. She bought so many things to decorate the eggs with; it was tough deciding what all we wanted to use to decorate. We created some awesome eggs; I'd say.

We had great food and a delicious punch!

Habitforge

After reading a friends blog about habitforge, I have decided to try it out myself. It may be a bit overambitious of me, but I added three habits. Habitforge is basically an online program that will help you to form habits. Check it out if you'd like, and maybe it will be able to help you out. I will let you know how it goes for me.

Fun Times

Carlos and I had a great weekend this past weekend. Today is Carlos' birthday! He's now the same age as me, haha. So last Friday we, along with some friends and family, went out for sushi and then went back to our house for cake and games. Carlos got a new wii game for his birthday so he and his friends spent the whole evening playing Super Mario Bros. The first time I ever spent Carlos' birthday with him, as his girlfriend, my sister and I made him "the best-ever chocolate fudge layer cake" (that's actually the name of the cake). He requested that same cake for this year. It didn't turn out exactly as I'd remembered it, but still very delicious.

Sunday we drove down to El Paso to see Megadeth in concert. The opening bands were Exodus and Testament. It was pretty awesome!

Slightly Annoyed

It's slightly frustrating that people will get so upset over a misunderstanding. A misunderstanding is not one person's fault. Yet some people tend to think that if a misunderstanding occurs that it is always the other person's fault. Or they'll think that the other person is stupid for not understanding them, when they may or may not have worded something in a way that the other person would expect. Ugh!

Godspell and The Superbowl

So... I saw Godspell for the first time this weekend. One of our local theater groups performed it. It does allow for a lot of freedom for the actors. I would like to see this show again, but with a different group.

I watched the superbowl of course. I was rooting for the Saints, so I was happy with the outcome. Carlos and I and a few of our friends got together for the event. We had plenty of food (well too much food)! I experienced a new food at this event: Cheesecake Sopapillas! They're awesome!! I need to get the recipe from my friend who made them!

Tons of fun...

By the way, our refrigerator has been repaired.. finally! Yea!
