Road Trip #1

Yesterday my friend Kenli and I left at 7:00 in the morning and drove to New Braunfels to attend our friend Beth's bachelorette party. We floated down the river in the afternoon. The water was COLD, but I was so glad that the sun was out and it was a warm day. It was perfectly relaxing and great to see Beth and to meet some of her high school friends. Since Kenli had to be back last night, we drove back to Abilene and got in about 11:00. So it was an incredibly short trip, but a fun one! Kenli is a freshman dorm director, so during our 10 hours in the car we shared a lot of dorm stories.

I told her about how Jenna and I were doing Tae Bo in our dorm room in Gardener one night. (You all remember when Tae Bo was the big thing, right?) Well, apparently there was a group that was supposed to be working out in the lobby that night which we didn't know about it. And for some reason they didn't end up doing it. So a girl comes down in her sports bra and shorts and asks where people are doing Tae Bo and our R.A. tells her it's down in our room. So as Jenna and I are punching and kicking the air in our little room, trying to avoid kicking each other or our furniture, a girl we'd never met opens our door and just joins in with us without saying anything. Jenna and I exchanged glances and just shrugged our shoulders and kept following Billy Blanks. Love random things that happen in the dorm!
