Giggling Gambling Girls in Galoshes

minus the goulashes of course.
Yesterday was a crazy productive day and by the time darkness had fallen on my wonderful little town of Cedar I was pooped out.
I just wanted wrap myself up like an oversized burrito in my fuzzy blankets, turn on a movie, and go brain dead.
Which is odd for me, I'm not really a movie type of gal.
The things college does to a person is astounding.
Right as I was ready to let my night of laziness commence I got a phone call from a friend.
I needed to buck up, stop being a bum, put on my cute night-on-the-town clothes and go out like a real college student.
So Kenz and I got dolled up, heels, red lip stick, the whole sha-bang, and went on our merry way to casino night.

Now before you get your panties in a wad it was hosted by SUU, and no money was lost in this affair.
When you walk into the great hall of gambling you are given a ticket that you exchange for $1000 in chips.
First order of business; play black jack and win BIG.
I took risks and got mega pay back.
Within a short amount of time my $1000 had grown to $5500.
I was about ready to test my luck in Vegas (joking!) when
I WENT ALL IN!!!
and lost it all.
I busted :(

So I found an extra ticket laying around, cashed it in and did it again.
This happen three times.
Every time Kenz or I would go all in people would crowd around and be like "dude this girl is nuts, she's risking it all!
But every time we cashed in new tickets we had to hide from all the peeps that knew we'd lost everything... you're only supposed to get one ticket total.
It was like playing fugitive, defiantly fun.

When casino night was wrapping up Kenz and I ran around to all the playing tables and cleaned up the roses for the committee.
We took them home and made up some potpourri!!

Side note: I have amazing friends that I love to pieces.
At lunch Andrew came up to me and told me he saw some art that South Hall was trying to get rid of, and there was a huge drawing of a COWBOY!!!!!!!
He took me to the building way late at night (after casino) in the freezing cold to get it, that's what I call a true friend.
It's currently hanging on my 'Cowboy Take Me Away' wall, and one day I'm going to frame it and put it in my house (when I get one), I love it.
I ended up getting three drawings!
Isn't the bottom left one just adorable??
I'm doing that on my wedding announcements no battle!

After my night of shenanigans I was as hungry as a hippo.
A late night Mickey D's run was in order, could this night get any better?
No, I really don't think so.
I devoured my white meat nuggets while watching friends then fell happily to sleep.
:)
MmmMmmmMmmm I'm lovin' it!

  1. What are they teaching you at that school? Gambling for an school activity?
