March Madness

The legendary disease that typically plagues high school seniors and Spring breakin' college freshmen has unfortunately mutated and is running rampant at SUU. Unfortunately two events have led to my infection. First, the shortage of vacinations. (You would think this is the flu!) Second, the inability of constant snow in March to kill the bug. The following are side effects of this horrid disease:

1. I now feel no desire to attend classes and would much rather attempt at becoming the next Betty Crocker. Betty, let me warn you, Bryce should never be allowed to use the chicken hot pads to retrieve a hot cookiesheet! Yes, that is perfectly placed cookie dough on my floor. No, I did not eat it.


2. An increased need to spend time with HAL! (Insert imaginary picture of us) More quality bonding time means more quality summer ideas which now include us living together. We pledge to at least attempt at acting our age but should not be held accountable for uncontrolable laughter, late night ice cream, and too much singing! It's almost the white-picket-fence scene huh?

3. Several unfortunate attempts at striking a Blue Steel Pose with Meggi and Aubs. America's next top model here we come!!

4. A ridiculous obsession with LOST. I blame this 100% on B-ryce. The intriguing plot twists, great character development, and excellent cinematography make this fifth-season drama a must see. . . if you want and uncontrollable addiction to the TV every Wednesday night at 8:00. (psst. . . it's on ABC)



5. I frequently spend time at the temple with boys. It's almost like driving in cars but with a completely different plot line. . . Rach and Chancen are the inspiration behind several trips to St. George. The Spirit of Elijah is alive and it feels great to participate in such a redemptive work.



6. Fleeing to warmer climates does not work to escape unmotivation. Especially when the warmer weather (Las Vegas) only means trading a parka for a sweater during the opening baseball game.


7. Eccessive watching of any and all college basketball games. Needless to say my bracket was an all around failure but that has yet to stop me from tuning in every Thursday - Sunday in March and half of April. Much to my mom's excitment the championship is this weekend. She can hear the angels sing!!

As it stands, this disease has not adversly affected too many "important" things like my term paper, graduation status, or unscathed police record. Dad, I promise I will try my hardest to keep things in order, but seriously sometimes being sick is just way too fun!!
