can we be bam-bam and pebbles?

Bonjour!
I don't really have much to write about, but I'm going to write whatever random comes to my mind, so bear with me. :)

*My friend, Kareen from Israel has taught me some Arabic! It's pretty cool, i know how to say green, red, yellow, pink, hello, how are you, i love you, and sweetheart. :)

*My roommates and I just made a run to the vending machine to get food, and they set their stuff by me and left...so now I'm sitting surrounded by candy, 2 bags of chips and 2 pepsi's. niiiiice.

*Today was work day...every work day, Sarah and I have as our "shloopy" days, so we wear boring outfits. Well, we rocked at our duties and finished early and were sick of being shloopy, so we ran to the room and put together cute outfits/jewelry/makeup/hair in the 50 minutes before lunch. SUCCESS! haha Now we feel much happier and today is a good day.

*Tonight is a bonfire/singing Christmas carols

*here is the music I'm obsessed with since being here: Queen, MJ, Journey, Bryan Adams. Ah, gotta love the oldies.

*Made a grand discovery/connection the other day...i won't tell you what it was, because you'll think I'm stupid for not putting this together sooner...but it had to do with Apple computers and Mac standing for Macintosh... ;)

*Josh and I have a tradition, that whenever we go on a walk around the loop and get to the bridge, we play Pooh Sticks! We each get a stick and throw it into the river on one side, then run to the other side and see whose stick comes out first! HAHA I usually win...

*On Sunday, my family group is going to go to our "parents" house and make Christmas cookies and watch a Christmas movie. =]

*Names of affection that our room calls each other: pumpkin seed, turkey muffin, sugar plum, pickle face...

*OH! and Sarah and I have nicknames for eachother, but when we say them, we say them with a lisp:
Sarah Thesaurus and
Sarai Wilberforce

*The lectures this week are on Abraham, and it gets slightly awkward hearing them talk about Sarai, the barren, old wife and having people chuckle and look back at me. HAHA I've heard some pretty good new Sarai jokes...especially when I'm hanging out with Sarah ("Hey, it's the girl God loved, and then the one He didn't!" "LOOK! "Before" and "after" are hanging out!") Then there are the old ones...("So, when are you going to change your name?" "Have you found Abram yet?")

*I really need to start writing more poetry while I'm here...

*We found out about some ruins around here that are apparently REALLY cool. I guess it's an old tower, surrounded by WILD HORSES!!! We are going to try to see it tomorrow..

*I can't believe it's almost half-way through December! So crazy...

That's about it for now, or else my brain will turn into stir fry.
ew.
That was uncalled for, Sarai.
