Adventures in the 00s

So Morgan and Ashton are writing a blog together? True.

But are we 'together' to write it? False. Thank you, Ohio & Indiana border. (Actually, we are both enjoying our time in the sun down in Florida...yet we are still in different parts of the sunshine state.)
[& speaking of true/false, Ashton took a final a couple weeks ago that was comprised of 65 true/false questions. weird? yes. Did she ace it? Pretty much.]

Ah, so you may wonder...What really makes their lives so interesting & adventurous? Well wonder no more, cause we'd like to tell you about the adventures we partake in. So without further ado, here is how our college education & tuition money is being put to use:

1. Well, obviously we write this blog! & that has provided us with good teamwork, great laughs, a fan following (hopefully), creativity, and occasionally some arguing. We also enjoy reading & looking at other blogs from both friends & strangers. [The friends that blog together, stay together.]

2. We love to have outings to the coffee place on campus...where we drink coffee, get caffeine highs, and make our presence known on campus.

3. We loooove listening to sermons. [Now you must be thinking...these girls are crazy! And yes, you're right. But as we all know..."Normal is boring. Why go through life unnoticed?"] Why do we love listening to sermons & podcasts? First, it's great to hear from Godly men teaching, encouraging, and challenging us from the Word, we enjoy the culturally relative messages, AND a lot of the time we laugh because people like Driscoll & Chandler can be quite witty.

4. We frequently call our mutual friends and have much laughter & good conversation with one other.

5. As you already know if you've read our first post, we have crazy adventures finding movies to watch. And in case you were wondering...Yes, we finally did get to see the move "My Sister's Keeper".

6. We go bowling & eat at Taco Bell.

7. We go to concerts. (Dave Matthews, Handel's Messiah...just to name a couple. ha.)

8. We like to confuse people & make them scared with our friend Peter. He knows all! Just ask us to introduce you to him sometime. Peter knows.

9. Morgan works at the front desk in our dorm, and Ashton is an RA. So on nights when we are both shut-ins and have our duties, we enjoy using walkie talkies to send people on "missions" throughout the campus! This has resulted in gifts being exchanged, walkie talkies being stolen, & many mis-communications.

10. And Finally, in honor of there being 10 points that we have made, we would like to tell you all about the most easy way to have an adventure. Play a little game we like to call '1 Thru 10'. It's just that simple. At any given time, you can say to the people with you a dare you would like someone to perform, and then you choose a number 1-10 and make them guess. If they guess the number you are thinking of then they HAVE to do it. No questions asked. & no cheating or lying...remember it's the integrity of the game! Oh me oh my...this is probably the funniest way to have adventures, such as hugging strangers or yelling silly things in public, etc. etc.

It's funny to think about how much money we spend on things like TV, ipods, movies, music, game systems, books, food, etc. to entertain us. When really, entertainment can be found all around in life's little adventures (p.s. sometimes we try to see just how many times we can actually use the word 'adventure' in our posts). Thats just our little encouragement to get out there & experience life to the full. After all, the greatest adventures end up being the best stories, and we love humorous stories!

What better to end a blog than with a profound quote...'Life is either a daring adventure or nothing' [Helen Keller]. We couldn't have said it (or signed it) better ourselves. :)
