Excuse the slackage.

Aloha!

I know it's been a while, please forgive me. There quite a bit to catch up on, so I hope you're ready. I don't want to make this a novel post, so I'll try to keep it short, but I'm usually pretty bad at that.

So Valentine's Day/ President's Day weekend was....GREAT! Not only was it a 3 day weekend which is always welcomed, but it also had a lot of fun to go with it. That weekend Wolfgang and I decided to rent a car so we wouldn't be stuck in Laie for 3 days. I'm glad we did it, and I'm glad we got a nice Toyota Corolla, that thing was amazing on gas mileage! So Valentine's Day consisted of:

Getting red roses from Wolfgang that morning (sorry no picture, my camera is crappy and can't take a decent close up picture no matter what setting it's on), going to a surprise pre-wedding party for our friend (and Wolfgang's roommate) Scott and JM who are getting married in April,


Then I left the party early to frantically hurry and print off Wolfgang's gift and to make it look somewhat nice. My mom helped me with the idea and Ben helped me put it together, so thank you both! I am a completely uncreative person and need a boost from others in these types of situations to get me goin'. Then I quickly biked over to Wolfgang's house to "heart attack" his room, which by this time he is growing impatient and thinks I am still on campus finishing his present.Oh yes, and that is, indeed, a teddy bear on his bed. So after getting some help from Scott and JM to finish decorating, I hid behind the door until Wolfgang came home. His first reaction was, "who did this?" wow hon. Ya know, of COURSE I was lying, but you would think that a guy could put two and two together. So I came out from behind the door before he could say any other unintelligent things (love you Wolfgang... :) )

The rest of the day was just nice and relaxed, and it was just nice to spend the day with Wolfgang. The night before we also went and saw, "He's just not that into you" which was good. On President's Day, we went WHALE WATCHING!!! It was great, and I've been wanting to do that for a very long time, especially due to my childhood obsession of "Free Willy," and Killer Whales/dolphins in general, and I'm not even exaggerating when I say obession. It was such a great experience, and you all are going to kill me now but....I don't have all the pictures that I want to show on my blog yet, so you're going to have to wait a few more days....I'm sorry! So there will be a whale watching post shortly, don't hate.

But, something else that happened the other day, is that I made my first loaf of bread in my new bread maker! I got it for cheap through craigslist, it was a good buy.

So after finally getting all the ingredients, I was anxious to get the show on the road, and after 3 1/3 hours of cookin in the bread maker, it turned out like this:

HA! It was still good to eat, but it looked like the surface of the moon, and to eat it you just had to rip of chunks, it was quite pathetic. I'm not sure what happened to it, I tried it again but this time doing white bread, and it turned out just fine, so I guess it just wanted to be tempermental.



So that's the scoop on my life. I hope you are all doing well, and check back in a few days (maybe not until this weekend though, I'm sorry!) and I'll have the scoop on whale watching.
