The Light at the End of the Tunnel

Cecilia: In the most famous words (among students anyways) from our beloved President Clark: "It's another great day at BYU-Idaho."  Well....for the most part.  Finals have been ridiculous for Brandon and I.  Our last finals on campus were today (thankfully). However, I still have a paper to write for one of my history classes. So I'm not quite done yet, but Brandon is (lucky guy).

This semester, Brandon and I both took a social dance class.  We learned (or re-learned) foxtrot, two-step swing, waltz, and cha cha.  We have two finals for this class- the class competition, and the social formal.  The competition was last Tuesday in the evening and we competed in waltz and cha cha.  We were competing against all the other students in the 180 social dance class (that's about 250-300 other students).  We made it to the quarter-finals for cha cha and we made it to the semi-finals for waltz.  It was a little disappointing that we didn't make it to the finals but at the same time we were grateful because of our homework load for the next day.  The social formal was last Thursday.  We were in the swing group.  It went really well, however, we were told that there were no lifts or flips allowed.  Right before we performed, we were told that we needed to give some groups more space because they had lifts and flips (grrr).


Brandon: Don't forget that you're not even supposed to to lifts or flips at BYU-I unless you're in a dancing class/crew and sign a nice little waiver that says that you won't hold the school liable for any injuries sustained.

Cecilia: Yeah, yeah... Most of our classes have already ended so that will make these next couple of days very nice.  Now we have more time to move our things into a different storage unit, do our white glove cleaning, and get packed and ready to go back to Lewiston for a couple weeks before the wedding.

Brandon: OH BABY!!!
