Roomates

     I recently moved out and have started the interesting adventure of college life at BYU.  I have two very interesting roommates Albi and Skanky (not their real names obviously).  These two ladies have made me feel more normal than I ever thought possible.

Skanky....

     Let me start off by saying that Skanky isn't actually a slut, in fact, she is quite the opposite.  She is very quiet and doesn't say much (I'm not complaining!).  When talking to Skanky, its hard to decipher what she is saying.  She speaks softly and avoids eye contact.  I usually just nod in agreement if I don't catch what she said.  Awkward silence, anyone?

Albi, Albi, Albi

     Albi is very outgoing and easy to have a conversation with.  She's very nice and a very excited individual.
 Albi is also a stressor.  She loves to pace and have encouraging conversations with herself.  "You can do this Albi, it's going to be okay." This can be quite amusing when we are at our apartment with the doors shut and nobody watching.  At school, on the other hand, it's pretty uncomfortable when Albi begins rubbing her temples and telling herself everything will be alright.  When this happens all I can do is look down and pretend not to know the crazy person talking to herself.  She also has to have her "mental time" every Sunday night, to get mentally ready for the upcoming week.


     Together these two provide some good entertainment.  They have conversations about Bristol Palin joining Dancing with the Stars and rant about her getting back with her baby daddy.  They also like to watch the same movies simultaneously on separate laptops.  I am surrounded by silence when suddenly they both erupt in laughter. I guess they're watching a comedy.  They are both pretty clean which is a miracle.  One thing they seem to overlook is hair.  Everywhere I go there is hair.  Light strands, dark strands, long strands, and my personal favorite, short curly strands.

 Needless to say this year is going to be fun.
