still in utah...
although i do love provo, i am ok with the fact that i don't live here. many things about this place creep me out.
things about provo that creep me out
1. people here like games a lot. board games, card games, sports games, you name it, they like it. too much.
2. the dating scene.
3. babies. strollers. everywhere.
4. bermuda shorts. now, i do own a pair of bermuda shorts, but i would like to think that i know how to rock them. the girls here... not so much. my sister bought me The Extra Half an Inch for my birthday, which is a guide to fashion by the one and only Victoria Beckham. best present ever, right? anyway, im pretty sure she would be against bermuda shorts, too. she's also against kitten heels.
5. at byu there's a duck pond in this very grassy area that is quite pretty in the daytime. however, there are signs that say "for your safety do not walk in this area after dark". if that isn't creepy enough, the words are in all caps in this drippy font that reminds me of a fake haunted house you would go to in your neighborhood in october.
6. matt and i were invited to go 'country dancing'. enough said.
7. nobody makes any less-than-wholesome jokes here. it seems like everyone likes the office, but nobody makes any TWSS jokes. peculiar. also, on saturday i was in a car with matt and his neighbors, and they were talking about a place called Tokerville in utah. TOKERVILLE. needless to say, i started cracking up. nobody else did. maybe they were used to it.
that's all for now. im sure i'll be able to add more in the next 12 days.
other than that, im still having fun here. im in some computer lab waiting for matt to get out of class. after that i'm going to continue re-reading harry potter and the deathly hallows. (yes!)
