festival of colors!

0 comments
This weekend was my first time going to the Festival of Colors in Spanish Fork. It's this huge Hindu celebration that welcomes springtime where people throw colored corn starch at each other and into the air at specified intervals throughout the day. On Saturday, over 40,000 people went to the festival, where 85,000 bags of colors (priced at $2 per bag) were sold. Sunday didn't have as many people but it was still a blast to experience and join in on. Click on the pictures to make them bigger.

Stuart, Mitch and I inside of the Sri Sri Radha Krishna Temple before the throwing of colors.

Early throwings; you can tell the time by the whiteness of Zack's shirt.

Stu and I after an hour of throwing colors.

Zack... This picture is seriously terrifying.

A glance at the Lotus Temple and part of the crowd after the first synchronized throwing.

I'll definitely be going back next year.

Saturday was the first day of Spring Break. Paul and I are basically the only people still at the dorms and its so boring. First we had lunch at Sizzler; it was a first for both of us. Next we hit up multiple Asian supermarkets in search of mochi and ramen. Then Paul went to practice and I laid in bed for four hours watching LOST. For dinner we had a full-on Korean meal: ramen, rice and seaweed, and lots of Korean cracker-type foods. Click here to see my side of the table.

I spent the majority of Sunday watching LOST. Paul and I had dinner at CafĂ© Rio in Park City because we missed Stuart. We also watched Battle: Los Angeles. Ummm, I really can't remember what we did on Monday.. Paul and I watched Due Date, which wasn't as good as expected. I also made Paul rent Ratatouille. We're going to watch it tomorrow night while we celebrate Wasted Wednesday with Mitch. Ha. Paul and I had dinner tonight at Stuart's house. It was my first time meeting his parents. They're so cute. Stuart also has two super cute cats - one is fluffy and beautiful, the other is fat and loved me more than Paul - and all I wanted to do when they were near me was lay on them and cuddle them to death. I want a cat more than anything. Only 45 more days until I'm back in Missouri with all of my kitties. ^_^

Oh yeah, I almost forgot. I'm getting close to 2,000 viewers. Sweet!

Corinne and I have been quarreling all night. It all started when I told her that my farts smelled like the Subway sandwich we had for dinner. I threatened to fart on her side of the room, which resulted in her threatening to plug my butthole. And burn her at the stake. (This is Corinne now). And I think those are two very reasonable threats. Also, Sam is pooping now. Again. For, I think, the 3rd time today. God, that girl produces more poop than a freakin' cow. It's unheard of. It's like she's making up for all of the girls who claim they don't poop. Heads up guys: girls poop. A lot. Especially Sam. She also farts. A lot.

Sam again. FOR THE RECORD, I was not pooping. I did fart (audibly, multiple times), but I did not poop.

Moving on to a less disgusting subject.. My birthday was Friday and I had such a blast. I went to work and received birthday greetings from 40+ kids multiple times throughout the day, ate donuts and cookies, and spent 2 hours outside for recess. Then Dan, Bridget, Dan's friend Scott, Mitch, David, Paul Kim, Stuart, Corinne, Zack, Max, Bottom Joe and I went to Ichiban Sushi for dinner and it was pretty tasty, although quite expensive. After dinner, Stu and I watched Spiderman on HBO and called it a night...


Ahem... ;) I drove Stu, Paul Kim and David to Tooele on Saturday for a drumline competition Mitch's school was competing in. Then we went to Target and I bought a Flip SlideHD and two Sims 3 expansion/stuff packs. I then spent the rest of Saturday night and the majority of Sunday playing the Sims. It's such an addictive game. I had a ton of French homework due today plus an in-class composition but did I study or be productive? Of course not. I was too busy making my Sims get it on in the hot tub.

Also, I started reading a new book last night. It's called Linger by Maggie Stiefvater. For those of you who have been following my blog since the beginning, you may recall this post in which I gushed about how excited I was to get the book when it came out. Yeah.. not that pumped anymore. The main guy character is super whiny and is always writing shitty poetry and lyrics and the main girl character is always talking about how in love with the guy character she is. It's annoying. I'll probably finish it tomorrow at work so I can get back to my Sims. Ha.

WELCOME TO MY BLOG.
THIS IS HOW EXCITED YOU SHOULD BE:

Or maybe more excited. I just look like I'm grinning unbearably.

Anyway, hi.
I'm kind of suffering from a caffeine high, which has resulted in me taking many pictures of myself, FaceTime-ing multiple people, Skyping multiple people, and blowing up everyones' news feeds on Facebook. (bwahahaha) This is my new Facebook profile picture:

I'm kind of scary, it's okay you can agree.

I'm in a much better mood than I was in my last post. I've realized that I need to stop being such a troll and be lucky that I get to go home and see my family because the chances of them being able to come here during the summer was very slim thanks to that asshole Aaron (my youngest brother's dad) who has legal control over whether my brother can leave the state or not. Fathers suck. I sure am glad I never had to deal with custody agreements like Nick is being forced into. Anyway, I'm going to suck it up, hang out with whoever I can, and hopefully rake in some dough so I can come back to Salt Lake and blow it all on things Trenton does not have (Forever 21, Urban, SUSHI, etc). Oh and go to Warped Tour like every summer. It's just as much of a shitfest this year as it has been for the last 3-4 years, but I can never pass up a good time like that. I just love gettin' me some skin cancer. Examples: (Click to make bigger and see the full effect of the sun on my deathly white skin).

Not even halfway through Warped 2010.

Only a few hours into Warped 2010. 

A few hours into Warped 2009.

Super crispy.

On a note completely unrelated to Missouri, I have two exams on Thursday. One is over Judaism - I also have a response essay on that ess due tomorrow that I have yet to start (it's only 7, I have time) - and the other is in French. I just got my ass kicked by three French exams (chapter 7, oral and composition) and now I have to experience that ass-kicking again. Then we have ANOTHER composition on Monday. I think my French teacher hates my class. He is dishing tests like the world is about to end. I do not appreciate. 

ugh

That's almost four months I have to spend in Missouri. That's right, folks. I get to spend my summer in that beautiful, wonderfully magnificent state in the midwest people call Missouri.
