Thank God for College Memories.

Taylor and I had quite a little adventure tonight. First of all, we were daring enough to walk over to the college store in hopes of spending our nearly $300 in points that will expire in only 2 weeks. Keep in mind that most people walk into the college store for things like a pack of gum or gallon of milk... not a whole shopping list. But we aimed to buy whatever we could. The girls behind the counter giggled as we picked through the groceries and stacked them on the counter... 4 boxes of cereal, bag of chips, instant meals, raman, candy, toothpaste, shampoo, poptarts....the list goes on. Finally it was time to ring it all up. DARN! I only spent $160! Back to shopping; try again. I managed to spend only about $200 leaving over $100 to spend on another day.

But that is not the end of the story. On top of looking completely rediculous carrying a grand total of 12 bags of groceries, we get to the door and it is POURING down rain, I'm talking lightning and thunder... So we put up our hoods, rolled up our jeans, and picked up our bags (very heavy I might add) and trudged through the rain puddles with water dripping down our face and into our bags. The walk back to the dorm seemed to last an eternity. People were rushing past us to seek shelter from the rain, but we gave up on staying dry and splashed at a slow, struggling pace. We finally got to our dorm, then our room, dropping all the bags onto the bedroom floor as we laughed at ourselves and how rediculous we undoutedly looked.

What a night!
