This weekend was pretty good.
This weekend was pretty good. Went rafting on Friday. I was pretty worried b/c it was slightly drizzling when we started off...but by the time we got to Ohiopyle, the skies were slightly overcast, but it wasn't raining or anything. The water was surprisingly refreshing. I kind of thought it would be butt cold, considering the skies and the temperature, but it was nice. Actually, sometime during the trip download, the sun actually did come out and we actually wanted it to stay overcast. Kinda of weird, huh? So anyway, I was on a raft with five other guys. I sort of expected that I wouldn't have to row as hard with five "manly" men with me, but alas I was wrong. I had to row just as hard as if there were five other girls. And the worst part...every time we hit a rock...who would go flying out of the raft? ME. I didn't fall out of the raft when we hit major rapids or anything, I fly out of the raft for minor little rocks. And the stupidest part (of course all due to me) is that I wore flip flops onto the raft. I mean, I knew that was stupid, but I didn't have water shoes or old shoes, so I just wore flip flops. Everytime I went flying out of the water...I came up screaming "My FLIP FLOPS!!!...". Everyone laughed at me. Actually, one time when I really thought I lost my flip flop, one of the guides came by on a kayak with the flip flop on his head. He was like, "saw it floating in the water. pretty easy to spot being bright blue and all..." and handed it back to me. Needless to say, I felt slightly stupid. But yeah, it was crazy fun. Next time, we are definitely going to go on the upper Yough. I can't wait!!
Other than that...I moved into my new place today. We spent most of Saturday night cleaning it up some. My cousin and I spent two hours just cleaning each of our bathrooms. We have so much more to go. But yeah, Scott and I rented the Uhaul and went around Pittsburgh picking up the random pieces of furniture that I managed to borrow from everyone. So even with all the furniture I snagged (two couches, a desk, and dining table...and yes, I am proud of myself), my place still looks pretty bare. Guess I might have to go shopping some more.
Anyway, I'm pretty exhausted. So, I think that's about it. Tomorrow we get to move Jim in. I have to say though, today Scott and I moved all of the heavy furniture ourselves. And that is to say that I didn't need another person to move that stuff. Just to prove that I can do it "myself". Go me. :)
