...to the Wedding Expo!

Yep, I'm getting married and moving to China. So I randomly went to the Tacoma Wedding Expo to check some stuff out and find a cheap dress. I could only do that on my one little break though... oops did I let that slip? Yeah, I lied. I'm not moving to China or getting married any time soon. But I did go to the Tacoma Wedding Expo, only I went to work for the florist. It was quite the experience, what a random mix of people. It was interesting to see everything, but I had to stand for about 9 and a half hours so I was EXHAUSTED by the end of the day. I thought about sticking around since Justin Timberlake was at the Tacoma Dome, but I decided to go home and go to bed.
Sunday was much more fun! I had the wonderful privilege of having two of my very good friends, Kim and MaryBeth come up to visit me. What an honor! It seriously made my month (that and I just paid off fall quarter tuition!) We had a wonderful time; I showed them around the property, we went to one of the best ice cream shops around, saw Carl, jumped on marshmallows while eating marshmallows and ate a scrumpcious meal. One of the more exciting points of the evening was the giant spider that we found in my room. Yeah, that was on my counter when we came down to eat. It is the biggest one I have ever found in my room. I know it doesn't look that big but when we first saw it, it was huge! I find a lot of spiders in my room since I live in the basement and have an outside door to my room, so I think I am a little used to them. No worries though, I killed it after I took the picture! Kim and MaryBeth were able to enjoy their food then.
