Life at Grove City College on Labor Day

Hello our dear readers of this very entertaining blog! (we really hope you are enjoying reading this bog.)
So as most of you know, Morgan and I made a very quick, sudden, immediate, spur of the moment decision to go to visit Ben Taylor and Molly at Grove City College. We had such a great day! We really didn't do very much, but it was just fun to see the people we haden't in a while. The day began with Morgan and myself waking up and getting ready for the day. When we were ready, Ben and Taylor were already waiting for us outside the building. We first walked around outside. (it was super gray and wet and sprinkling outside.) We went into a building where a bunch of football players were. Let me tell you, not being a grove city civilian it was awkward walking into there and having all the football players look at you as if you were in the wrong place. Leaving that building, we went over to a building that had all the gyms and courts and swimming pools. After that we walked around the campus some and then walked to the rainbow bridge where Grove City lovers propose to their girlfriends in the spring. They call it “Ring by Spring” We left from there to head over to ked rec, but before we got there, we stopped at the boys dorms and Taylor and Ben ran in to get a deck of cards. Now is the part where we got to ked rec and the four of us played kemps for a while. After kemps, Ben went to go get his coolio Grove City laptop. Morgan and Ben then went to another table to do stuff on the computer, while Taylor and I played a few rounds of speed. Taylor then decided he would teach me how to play Rummy!! After a few rounds of loosing, I finally caught on to the game and had a long round of wins! It frustrated Taylor to no end that I am so amazing at Rummy! When we finished playing Rummy, the four of us went over and played Foosball. Morgan and Ben won. After that we again walked back to the boys dorm building. It was 11 by then so Morgan and Ben chose to go to lunch off campus and I got to use Ben's lunch card to get lunch with Taylor. We called Molly and had her meet us there. Taylor and I found a seat and then Molly showed up. We got food and sat back down. We talked about Taylor getting a girls number ;) and just talked about college classes and stuff. We then got up (Molly and I) to get some peach smoothies. They were actually really good. Finally we thought it was time to leave. While we were grabbing our trays, I accidentally knocked Molly's half empty smoothie cup over and it spilled all over the place =( Taylor told me that no one had ever spilled anything before at GCC but I knew that he was lying. We then left there and headed to get my laptop so I could charge it. Molly went back to her room, and Taylor and I walked over to his building to sit in the lobby. Meanwhile, Morgan and Ben went to lunch at Pamani brothers, but accidentally went to a wrong exit. They had to find the next exit which was ten miles away. They finally got to the restaurant where they would have lunch. It took them forever to get their food so they ended up getting a free root beer float and Ben got the military discount. That's cool right?? After their lunch they went to Old Navy and Ben bought some jeans. Then the two headed back to GCC. While there were doing all this, Taylor and I were playing on his iPad and he was telling me how COOL my PC laptop was and how jealous he was =) The whole day, Taylor was looking for something “blog worthy” to do so I would write it in here. He told me we should do a video blog. Sadly we did, and it was weird and embarrassing to talk to an iPad. So he got flustered when he was the only one talking lol. I just kinda laughed a lot and told him he was being silly. Then, I don't remember how, but we brought up the 7th harry potter book and Taylor went to look for the 7th book so we could read the last chapter. He couldn't find it which was disappointing. Then we wanted to go play racquetball, we were so excited to play, but when we walked all the way there it was closed and we couldn't find anyone there to help us out. So, Again we walked back to the building we were just at. We found a new seat because our previous place was taken. This time we had the idea to build a card tower. This would be fun because neither one of us had ever done it. We tried and tried and tired, but we couldn't do it. The cards were really slippery. So from there we listened to the amazing Adam Young (owl city) and played more Rummy. I am such a winner at that game, let me tell you! Soon, molly texted me telling me that she wanted to hang out, just as i saw Morgan and Ben got back. I went with Molly to her dorm room. While I was gone, Morgan and Ben went on a walk down to the Rainbow Bride, took pictures and had some good conversation time. After they were done with that they went back and got poor lonely Taylor. They played cards games: 31 and Egyptian Rat screw. While this was going on, I was in molly's dorm with her and her room mate Leah. We listened to Taylor Swift, talked, and looked at things on pinterest. We had a good time in there hanging out! I love Molly so much =) (let me tell you, Morgan and I are so thankful for getting to know the Harrington family! Molly, Emily, Ben and Ross are such amazing people to spend time with and I am thankful for them.) It was about 5:40 at this point. We got our stuff and put it in my car and said our goodbyes. Right before that we took some group pictures. Then we all hugged goodbye and we were on our way out of GCC. Before we actually got on the road we had to stop for food and gas at sheetz. Then we had to go to walmart for me to use the potty and buy some tape to tape the tiny area in my window that whistled from the wind. Finally we were heading home at 6 pm. Morgans turn to drive!

 I am riding in the car typing this out and at this moment we are an hour from the apartment. We are both tired. I will upload this when I get back, but for now, Goodnight wonderful people =)
