Friday night last week, my two roommates, Jen and Josie, and my imaginary roommate, Angela, ( she sleeps on my couch, eats my food, but doesn't technically live in apt. 228) and I went on the most fascinating adventure!! It was a hard thing to get started though, Angela was asleep on the couch and I had to coax her off the couch and out the door by placing a trail of cheerios on the ground that led to the door... She almost fell for it but then slipped to the ground and face planted it! Ha ha it was ridiculously funny.
Once on campus we visited the Hinkley Visitor Center first! They had some great rooms that were full of some of the comfyest chairs on the planet! Haha I know where I'll be watching devotionals :) They had some great historical pictures on the wall, my favorite was that of the freshman in the olden days, They had to wear cat ears and whiskers around campus for some initiation of some sort, boy i'm glad we don't have to do that.
Then we got lost in the basement of the HFAC! It was ginormous and i swear we were going in circles! Everywhere looked the same! haha but the highlight of the basement of the HFAC was the bulletin board, found somewhere in the maze of hallways, that we all signed our names onto just to be funny like the rest of the kids who thought they'd put clever little doo dahs on the boards. Lol felt like jr. high all over again, writing on walls and things that weren't meant to be written on.
Then we took pictures of some amazing sculptures outside the MOA. We tried to mimick the awkward pose of the little dancer scultpure. Haha some guy ended up asking if he could take a picture of us taking pictures of each other, that was cool. We then explore the JFSB stairs, haha that was intriguing but my favorite part of the adventure was definitely the Eyring Science Center! There were so many hands on activities and amazing things to read about in the lobby! But the telescopes on the observation deck were absolutely fascinating! We got to look at jupiter and three of its moons! We got to see the moon up close and in detail threw a really large telescope! I had always wanted to stare through a telescope that large in scale! So that was way cool!!
Something I would definitely recommend everyone should try at night on campus is to slide down the library hill! When the weather is just right and with a good running start you can make it all the way down on your stomache or side! haha its also fun to roll down!
