about us!

Since Paige wrote about our new blog, I decided I would write about us!

To start off, I'll introduce us! My name is Imari. I am a Senior in college. I go to school on the East coast. I'm a business major and a music minor. I play the flute. I like to ride motorcycles. and if you were wondering.. I am the asian part of the duo!

Paige is my best friend. She's also a Senior in college. She goes to school in the West. Her major has something to do with art and visual communications but the title is long and I always forget it (sorry, Paige...). She's really crafty and arty. She trips a lot. She likes to ride her bicycle. aaannnddd she's the blonde!

Our friendship had kind of a weird start.. We grew up in the same city, going to all the same schools, and even being in some of the same classes, but we never really knew each other. In 7th grade, I moved right next door to Paige's family, but we still didn't know each other very well. Then, one day in 9th grade, we hung out and well, we've been best friends ever since! We were pretty much inseparable... Wherever one went, the other went too!

We stayed friends through High School graduation..

After graduation we went to the same college, and took all the same classes.. Then we both transferred to different schools.

Now, 8 years later... we are Seniors in college, going to different schools, living in different states... but we're still best friends!

too many criminal minds episodes

this monday was labor day, which means to school and no work. it was also the day before my mom turned 51, so we decided to make a day of it and have some fun. saturday we went to the sugarland concert (in the pouring rain) where we got extremely wet and cold (i'm still suffering from the cold), then monday we woke up, went school shopping, went indoor skydiving (so awesome!) and saw the Brigham City Temple (beautiful). it was a pretty great day. after all that i had to go back home to my apartment cause i had school early on tuesday. i got home around 10 and... my basement door was open. creepy. my roommates and i had all been gone for the weekend and i was the first to come back. so either one of my roommates had forgotten to shut the door, or someone had gotten in. and since i've seen one too many 'criminal minds' episodes, my mind obviously went to murderer! i panicked. shut and locked the door, then slowly crept through my house, opening every door and cupboard there was, looking for whoever had come in. i'm not really sure what i would've actually done, if there was actually some one in my house, but i looked anyway. after going through the basement and main floor, i made it up to my room. the most terrifying moment of all was pulling back the shower curtain. i thought for sure that is where they would be hiding. but after a mild heart attack, i pulled back the curtain and was just fine. i had texted my parents to tell them i made it home safe and that my door was open, but i was fine. after i had checked everywhere, one of my friends asked if i wanted to get a slurpie. he came and got me, i put my phone (which was on silent) in my bag and we walked to 7/11, got the slurpies and then walked back to his apartment. well... long story short. we were just hanging out when i reached in my bag to get some gum and noticed that i had 18 missed calls! 18! i hurried and called my mom. it turns out, they thought i had gotten kidnaped or murdered or something because after i had told them the door had been left open, i stopped responding. oops. my mom told me the police were banging on my door and my sisters friends had come to find me. it was bad. but everything turned out alright, i'm not dead!
