I'll Color You Yours!

This past Friday a bunch of my roommates and friends and I went on a group date to Color Me Mine, a magical land of ceramics and paint. Basically it would be an awesome place to work. Or live, even.

This is the bowl I painted!
I am very proud of it.
Even though I do not have much artistic capability, I am a bit of a perfectionist and my date Nefi and I stayed after closing time a little bit to make sure we finished our pieces to our liking. But it was totally worth it! I plan to use this bowl every day of my life from now on.
My meals will never be the same!

Nefi painted this soccer ball bank. We had a bit of a lesson in geography and world culture as he had to look up the different flags to paint a similitude of different countries' flags on each hexagon. . . and also the occasional random pentagon.

And here is the plate that Allison and John painted. So cute! I think it looks like something you'd see in a store. Way to go, y'all!So hennyways, it was a great weekend. I'll see if I can get pictures of everyone else's pottery pieces. If so, I'll put them up soon.

Today, I had a headache right from the moment when I woke up. It's lasted all day, but I'm living still. But when I saw Jazlyn on campus, we ran toward each other, only to collide in an embrace that left me speechless. . . .
No, seriously. I was in so much pain that I couldn't speak for a minute, as I had smashed my face into her shoulder, thanks to her jumping up right as we met. I'm just grateful that I did not break my nose or any teeth, even though my nose hurt so bad my eyes watered non-stop for a few minutes (I wasn't crying. . . my eyes were just a little sweaty today). My bottom lip did feel tingly for a little while, but luckily it did not bleed. Also, we thought I might have had a miniature concussion.
Actually, that was just the joke all day for whenever I said something stupid (which for some reason was quite often). But yeah. All's well.

Also, today is Jazlyn's birthday. Happy Birthday, Jazlyn!

  2. Haha thanks!
    Yeah, fingerpainting is great too. But I can't eat out of my painting of Baloo. Or the handprints, for that matter. :)

  3. What a fun date idea! And thanks for showing Allison's and John's or I would probably never see it!
