week two-still loving it!

so i promised pictures...

This is where I'm staying! isn't it cute??


my conversation with gwen this morning:

Me: "Aunt gwen, there's a racoon the size of a golden retriever outside on your front porch."
Aunt gwen: "oh yes, he's a local here in the neighborhood, always getting into people's compost piles"
Me: "well why don't you just shoot him?"
Aunt Gwen: "Because this isn't texas, and I could get arrested."



Corie had to leave, very sad!! But it was so fun!! She is such a joy to be around!!



This has probably been the best part of the trip so far, walked into Athentian Inn bar in pikes place market and found this!

"Tira misu. You'll find out what that is."


Saturday I helped heather with a wedding in Tacoma at on old mansion:

Beautiful ceremony!! the brides family was indian, so at the reception they played the slumdog millionaire soundtrack and did the finale dance!!! it was incredible. I helped heather direct everyone and setup/break down. But the best part came after the wedding, when the night concluded with heather and I having to drive two drunk grooms men, their girlfriends (one couple was actually married, thanks to an elvis chapel in vegas), and an astrained family friend in his army uniform back to the hotel from the mansion. One broken box of wine and a debate over who can pee longer (between the 2 classy girlfriends) later, we got everyone safely back to the hotel. Only to have the bride and groom moon us from their room on the 7th floor when we pulled up.


Last night heather and I went to Mars Hill church in Ballard, It was about herichies, very good! but VERY long.. as in, an hour and half. He is SO BLUNT it's incredible! After living here and seeing how everyone thinks and belives, I am shocked that anyone goes to his church at ALL. I think it's a true testament to the fact that everyone craves pure truth to some degree. It's amazing the impact mars hill is having on the city, i can't wait to keep going!

I had my orientation for my internship today and got to meet the other interns, all very nice! one other girl, and three guys, one gay..i think.. well im not sure about him. i need to work on my gay-dar. Right now i just asume everyone is, and then go from there. We will be attending one event a week, i can't wait to write about it!!

While being in Seattle, I have some what gotten back in touch with my emo roots. At least, musically anyway! yall have to check out this song! it's called
Sometime around midnight

i am also LOVING Disney's "Up" soundtrack! this is the best one, listen to it! it's called
Married Life

Hope you like them :) Hope your enjoying the blog! I will post more later!! Sending my love to everyone at the getaway & CSU!!! Wish I was with you all!!
Oh! and HAPPY BIRTHDAY KYLE!!!! very sad i am missing it :(
Much Love!
