EFY is the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well this week was very awesome, like to the g sizzle. On Monday, me and Jeremy and little Jeremy got to the college and got lost in the campus itself. Then we waited in line for like 15 minutes and finally got checked in and got all this stuff which pictures will be showed at some point in time. So we got to our room on the 8th floor! Then we got to meet all the guys in our company, which were Davis, a big boy who can win at any staring contest. Ethan, who is a freaking hilarious dude. Alex, who is skin and bones and 6'3, so he did look taller than me. Jordan, who is just a cool, quiet guy. Forrest, who is a sick pervert who needs to watch his language, and is just a weirdo. James, who I thought was like 8 years old when I saw him, and he also acts like he is 8, that punk. Then there was Stephen, who was really funny and just good to hang around with. Lastly, there was Jay, who is like, in my own opinion, a mix between Ferris Bueller and Cameron in the movie, "Ferris Buellers' Day Off!" We had a counselor over the ten of us boys, whose name was also Jordan. He served a mission in Finland and got back a year ago, but can still sing some primary songs in Finnish. Then, we got to meet "the ladies", yeeeeeeesssssssss! The babes in our company were Rachel and Lucy Hale, twin sisters who were both pretty funny. Then there was Dreah, who was a very loud and frequent laugher. Next is Meredith, who I didn't really get to know well, but hopefully I will in the future. Then Hannah, not my sister, who is actually a couple of months YOUNGER than me, which like never happens. Then there was Emily, who is only 5 days YOUNGER than me! Next is Sabrina, who I had a very good conversation with about how ugly hairless dogs are. Casey, who was hilarious, is so outgoing and not even self-consciouss or however you spell that, and she talks like all the time, which is actually very enjoyable. She is also very independent, which can be looked at as bad or as good. Next is Natalie, who was very awesome, and who I just liked to be around. Last is my favorite, Mikelah, because she is just so awesome! Her smile was just so lovely, it would brighten my mood for the day, and her voice is so beautiful, especially the way she laughs, oh it just makes me feel warm! I know it sounds like I'm obsessing, which I am, but her eyes were just so amazing, they just gleamed with beauty! Last of all, her personality was just so friendly, I was just automatically attracted to her. At EFY, they had a thing called a cow or your cow, which is like who, of the opposite gender, you liked most during the week. However, since that can be taken offensively to women, I will called Mikelah my babe.

DAY ONE
1. We met each other.
2. We had the first day orientation of EFY in Bowling Green, KY
3. We had dinner, which every meal at the cafeteria was like going to Golden Corrall, which I gained like 4 pounds from on this venture.
4. Then our company, whose name is Know Good From Evil, did FHE activities together. Two that I will always remember are the Anteaters and Ants game, and what us youth called the "HIYAH" game! Anteaters and Ants is like sharks and minnows, but when a person gets tagged, they have to lay down on the ground and wait for 4 ants to come and lift them up and take them to the safety zone, otherwise known as the anthill. To win the game, the anteaters had to get all but 3 people tagged, because you need 4 to lift people up. For the ants, they had to get everybody safely back on the anthill. Doing this made me more comfortable and happy at EFY!
5. Went to bed, but had a devotional from our counselor before that, which happened every night.

DAY TWO
1. Woke and took a showah
2. Went out to meet the ladies, of which out of all girls I've met before she is my babe.
3. Went to classes, mealtimes between of course, and learned more about the gospel.
4. Had the almost 3 hour dance which rocked the world! The guys made a commitment that at every slow dance song, we would dance with a girl, which I did, oh yeah! It was an awesome experience! Way better than the stake dances.
5. Nighty-night!

DAY THREE
1. Woke and took a showah
2. went to ladies
3. classes
4. PIZZA NIGHT, which wasn't that special because we had awesome pizza at the cafeteria anyway. However, Jay in our group threw up that night, because he ate 8 slices of pizza, drank 3 cans of soda, and had a half a can of Salt & Vinegar Pringles, yuck! Now Jay is not a big kid, he is short and skinny. I guess this counts as him being belemic(however you spell that) in a way. What a moron he is!

DAY FOUR
1.This was the day with all the most spiritual experiences, such as some of the classes, activities, and the testimony meeting.
2. What a great experience!

DAY FIVE
1. Last day, sniffle, sniffle.
2. Lots of flashing cameras in my eyes.
3. At dinner time did a very nice thing for the ladies and went and got their food for them, which we all did just to one girl apiece, and it was whoever we escorted there. So, for most guys it was easy and they went to go get pizza for the girls and whatever, but I had to go take a special order for Dreah. I had to go get a special grilled wrap thing with all this nasty junk in it for her, and since I could not remember what she specifically wanted, she wrote it down for me. Then, when I got there and had to wait a half an hour in line, the two girls behind me saw the list of ingredients for the wrap and asked me about. When I told them they kept chuckling at me and saying how cute I was for doing this for a girl. When I got to where I needed to tell the lady who wrapped the wraps the ingredients, I just gave her the list, told her the story, and said thank you. She laughed at me too, but in a good way that made me feel awesomer. I served Dreah drinkage, dessert, and took up all her stuff as well.
4. The dance was only just under 2 hours, but even more fun. At the end, all these girls passed their hanbooks down, and asked for either facebook, email, or both. I now have a facebook, but I don't get it at all yet, but oh well. Then, we all had one last lesson from our counselors, and then took pictures and hugged each other. I picked up everybody, even all the girls. I know they liked it, because they all laughed or screamed when i picked them up, and squeezed them tight.

One thing I forgot to mention was the cheer and game night on Wednesday before we stuffed our faces with pizza. We had to do a banner and skit for competition, and we got 2nd place on the banner, and 1st place on our skit, which was freaking awesome!

Me and Jeremy also did musical program, which is why we couldn't call you mom, cause it took up all of our free time. I didn't get the solo, because I got beat out by an 18 year old, so big surprise, but that was really fun too!

About the escort thing, it is pretty much a guy asking a girl if they can escort them to the destination that we are heading to, except for Thursday, which was ladies choice. I escorted every girl in the company, but only Mikelah once, on Friday night after the dance, when we were saying our last goodbyes. By the way, she only turned 14 in April, so I'm older than her, which means this is the first time I've really liked a girl who is younger than me, but that's just because I skipped a grade so yeah. By the way, there were of course some things I left out because I cannot remember them at this time.

EFY was the best time of my life, and I loved going there. I'm going to miss everyone in my company a lot, especially Mikelah my babe. Well, that's all, so PEACE OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
