One year older...and wiser too?

Well, it's been another year and I'm 19, baby! Yesterday was a BLAST! Being my first birthday away from home, I was curious as to how it would turn out, but it was definitely a fun day. At exactly midnight, me and my roommate ate a bite of ice cream to celebrate the beginning of my birthday, and it just went up from there!  I made a birthday bucket list that my roommate helped me accomplish! Here are just a few of the items on my list:

• Rent a puppy
• Hold a strangers hand
• Climb a tree 

 Rent a Puppy

Yes, we did get to rent a puppy. His name is Bruno and he's ADORABLE. He was delivered right to our door and we got him for an hour. :)

 

As you can see, he was kind of a stinker.  Haha:) He was a playful biter, and kept crying..but he was still fun and adorable! Boarder Collie puppies are so cute. 

Hold a Stranger's Hand

This one made me pretty scared! But I thought it was hilarious and really wanted to do it! So first I'll tell you the story, and then you can watch the video :) So me and Aubrey (my roommate) walked around campus looking for cute guys without rings on their left hand..haha;) When I found one that wasn't walking too fast, I casually started walking next to him. Then I started talking to him.  Here's how our conversation went:

Me: "Hey, how's it going?"

Boy: "Good."

Me: "Cool! So, it's my birthday, so I was just wondering if you would hold my hand."

Boy: "Oh, are you playing assassin or something?"

Me: "Nope, it's just my birthday."

Boy: "Wait, really? This isn't for anything?"
Me: "Yeah, it's my birthday today and it's on my bucket list, so.."

(Then the boy held out his hand, and just as I started reaching for it, he kept lifting it away from mine, and said):

Boy: "Wait really?"

Me: "Yeah!"
Boy: "Non e vero?" (or at least that's what I think he said..) "Uh, I mean, seriously?"

(I think the fact that he started speaking a different language means he's probably fresh off his mission hahaha)

Me: "Seriously."

(Then he let me hold his hand! *Success* He swung our cute little hands around and said):
Boy: "Should we skip or something?"
Me: "Yeah, sure!"

(Then he had to go into the building his class was in so I said goodbye.)

Thanks for being a good sport, random guy! Haha! Even thought it took a little convincing, he let me check something off my bucket list!;) :) Here's the video!

So we decided to try this one more time, just for the heck of it.  The second guy was much faster to just hold my hand. I asked him, and he said sure right away! He then guessed my motives, however, and asked if this was for Candid Camera or something, turned around, and spotted Aubrey recording! Haha, whoops! Here's the video of that one! And a shout out to Aubrey for getting all the footage and partying with me!:)

 

 Climb a Tree

This was a very simple thing, but I love climbing trees, and there is a fantastic one not too far from my apartment! So Aubrey and I climbed the tree and took a couple pictures!

 After our bucket list excursion, I then got ready to perform with my Social Dance class at a party/dance lab/thing for all the Social Dance students! We did the cha cha to "Daftpunk" by Pentatonix, and we had a little hip-hop section at the end! It was a ton of fun! It was also exciting because we got to put random colors in our hair and try to look like robots.. :)

  The girls of our class! Plus 2 of the boys...shhhhh

 Wardies!

 Here's a video of my class doing our routine! :)

 

I then finished off the night by going to Noteworthy rehearsal and getting treats from all my Noteworthy girls! The day was very busy but super fun! Thanks to everyone for making my 19th birthday a great one! :)
