Sorry I've taken so long, but a lot of stuff has been happening so this might take a while. First of all, Halloween was fun and once again I completly filled up my suitcase. (I was a Lawyer for the third year in a row.) Then my birthday was Monday which is always fun. I got a lot of things like Arguing with Idiots: by Glenn Beck and the 3rd Mysterious Benedict Society. Yesterday was my friend party where we did a fun 'Video Scavenger Hunt' where you need to go around and video people doing stuff. Here's what we had to do: (a-hem) (Jeni made it.)

14.Read this philosophy of Aristotle, wearing a toga—standing by a flag.
“A tragedy is a representation of an action that is whole and complete and of a certain magnitude. A whole is what has a beginning and middle and end. A sense is what has the power of receiving into itself the sensible forms of things without the matter, in the way in which a piece of wax takes on the impress of a signet-ring without the iron or gold.”
15.Wear this hat and explain directions to the North Pole by a road sign.

Thanksgiving is one of my most favorite times of the year purely because of the name. Thanksgiving. It's the one time of the year that people slow down in their crazy, messy lives and appreciate all of their blessings and feel grateful that their situation could always be worse. Plus, the food is fantastic! We went to my Grandmas on my Dads side of the family and had a big meal with a bunch of my cousins and my Great-Grandparents. Then we played games all night. Before that ,Thanksgiving morning, my family went to Salt Lake City and delivered meals for the Salvation Army. We enjoyed it a lot. Hope you enjoy the new backround for my playlist!
