   Wow! It's been awhile, and I have a lot to tell, so pay attention!!
Yeah, sorry I haven't posted in like four days, but I've been busy. Doing what you ask? Can you say Road Trip!! Me and five of my friends packed into a car(along with Nena's parents, who planned the trip) and we drove to Salt Lake! We left in the morning on Friday and got back last night at about 2:00 in the morning. I was going to post and let you guys know I hadn't vanished from the face of the Earth, but I was too tired and just crashed. But on to the content of the trip!! We arrived in Salt Lake at about 4:00 and checked into our hotel. Since all six of us were going to be left in a room by ourselves, Nena's mom gave us this big speech about how we need to behave and all that good stuff. Within two minutes of her leaving, AJ broke something. Great, huh? Nya! Well, anyways, we managed to fix it and make it look like nothing had happened. After that we went to the mall next door. I got the best shirt in the world!! Its black and has 'Anime Junkie' written across the front. Freakin Awesome!!!!!! I got it from Hot Topic, and I also started to get into a conversation with the guy at the register about anime, but had Devin tell me to shut up and stop holding up the line. >_< I also got volumes 4 and 5 of Fruits Basket. I'm currently about half way through 4, so no spoilers!
Oh! You know how Nena is obsessed with Shaun White? Well, there was a poster in Zumiez(sp?) of him buttoning his shirt. Hot!!! Anyway, she took a picture of it so I could draw it. I did another of him while we were in the hotel room along with a picture of Heikki Sorsa, who is the object of AJ's affections. I'm partial to Chris Brown myself, but you know. . . Speaking of snowboarders, I do believe I have acquired a new appreciation for the sport. That's what we spent our down time doing; watching snowboarding movies. Yes, very good movies. We also spent about an hour sitting on a bench on the side of the road waving at random cars that drove by us. We got a variety of responses, ranging from a friendly, if confused, wave back, to getting flipped off. It was really fun!!
Anyway, yesterday we got to the main point of the trip which was to go to the National Young Women's Conference. The other four mormon people on this site know what it is, but I'll explain it for the rest of you. Young women ages 12 to 18 come from all over the country to listen to the speakers and strengthen their testimonies. I think my favorite thing was the quire, those girls had gorgeous voices.
Anyway, today was the Anime Convention. I went for about an hour, but all of the people who were supposed to come with me ended up canceling. It is Easter, and most of them had family stuff going on, so I understand. Still, I'm very shy, so its no fun to go by myself. I did watch the Cosplay Cooking Contest. It was pretty interesting. The contestants were dressed up as Edward from FMA, someone from CardCaptors I think, Sasuke from Naruto, Naruto, and someone from Yugioh. I think the one dressed up as Sasuke had the best costume, and apparently they cooked the best because they won. After that was over I left. I was kinda disappointed because I didn't get anything to remember it by, but I'm gonna go next year, and I'm gonna make sure I have someone to go with me.
So instead of spending the day at the convention, I went and saw Hitch with my mom. It was a pretty good movie in my opinion.
Well, I'll post the pictures I drew on my trip, then I'll go and visit everyone and see what has happened in my absence.
Later!! ^_^
