Starting from fall semester my roommates and I have planned to reunite together in Salem, Utah for the festival of colors. So Friday after everyones classes were over, well mostly my classes were over, we began the road trip to Utah. We took two cars (Becca's and Chloe's) and filled them up with ten people. The friends that came are: Chloe, Elle, Spencer, Nate, Me, (Chloe's car) Becca, Kaidree, Adrien, Bradley, and Colt. (Becca's car) In our car we talked about our lives. It was pretty interesting when it came to Spencer and Nate mainly because we did not know much about them. Spencer was a notty little boy, lets just say that he did some things that he should not have done. But now he has repented and is a changed man. Nate was basically a pyro and got in trouble a lot. It was just really fun to here about their childhood and I guess it was the same for them.
Anyways we got to Provo around 9ish. Allie, Cosette, and Jessi met up with us at Zuppas. Zuppas is a restaurant that makes really good sandwiches and soups. We got our dinner to go and headed to a park with a big swing. Once we finished our dinner we headed to Allie's house so that we could drop our things off. (since we are staying at her house.) Then we went to Becca's house and sat around a fire and roasted starbursts. Once we finished with the fire, we went to Cosette's house to ride in her bronco. (Note all thirteen of us squeezed into her bronco) Once we all got in and were safe and sound Cosette began to drive up the mountain so that we could go star watching. Sadly there were a few clouds so instead we decided to talk to each other and looked out to the city lights. It was fun and beautiful.
After talking and looking at the city lights we all got back into the bronco and drove down to Allie's house since it was about two in the morning. By the time we finished talking and got ready for bed it was about 3:30-4 in the morning. We woke up around 8am and ate some breakfast. After getting ready we went to Allie's, Cosette's, and Becca's high school and played some sand volleyball. After playing a few games we went to the Festival of Colors.
The Festival of Colors cost 2 dollars to get in and 10 dollars for 5 bags of color powdery stuff. We began throwing it at each other and other people. Other people also threw it at us. Note for future references keep your eyes closed and your mouth shut. It burns your eyes and tastes horrible. We stayed there until all our color powder was gone then we decided to go and eat. But first we walked back to the high school to play one more game of volleyball.

We went to buy two boxes of pizza and walked to the park. It was a beautiful park. We ate our pizza on the bridge. As we were getting up something fell in the water. None of us new what it was, but we thought that it could be a phone or a wallet. All of a sudden Spencer announced that it was his phone that sank to the bottom of the pond. if it were my phone I would have freaked out. But he was calm and just walked away, but I bet inside he freaked out. After walking around the park we walked back to the high school and got in the cars and went back to Allie's house to begin taking showers. Once everyone was ready we went to Becca's house for a BBQ.
Attractive picture of me. (not really)
The crazy people who jumped in the pond
The smart people who stayed dry
After the BBQ we went into two cars and drove to the movie theater to watch The Hunger Games. Which was amazing. I wont spoil it for anyone who hasn't seen it, but it was really really good.
Then today we began heading back to Rexburg around 8 in the morning. I fell asleep and did not wake up until 10. So I got 2 hours of sleep. We got to Rexburg around 12:30pm. It was such a fun trip and I wish we could go back and hang out with everyone again.
