In true 1320 fashion, it is time for the birthday blog post. Dedicated to my gurl Syd Rich. Since I did 18 things I love about her last year, and I still love those things, I decided to do something a little different. If you'd like to read last year's post, feel free to refer to the link below.
So this year I decided to highlight 19 amazing memories that I've shared with Sydney in our 1 and a half years of friendship/living together.
1. When we went to the Killers concert May 2013 and learned a lot from the audience about what Mormons are supposed to look like and do (sarcasm duh).
2. When we got free Chipotle after waiting in line for 15 minutes for chicken and freaking lettuce. What the actual crap.
3. When Syd took rocking engagement pictures for Taylor and Natalie and I gracefully photobombed some of them.
4. When we discovered the "True Facts" videos and realized that the Tarsier is the creepiest creature on earth.
5. When Sydney interviewed us with the best getting to know you questions and some of the answers were very interesting.
6. When we went to Wal-Mart and I bought a watermelon and it rolled out of my trunk and across the parking lot and Sydney helped me chase after it.
7. When we discovered Google Hangout and video chatted with each other even though we were in the same house.
8. When our weeds in the backyard grew even taller than Syd.
9. When we hunted down Baja Blast for an entire night and couldn't find it, but then saw a man with a case of it on the back of his motorcycle and asked him where to find it. That stuff is serious business.
10. When Lauren used to be in charge of setting up for dances so we would spend the entire day of the dance decorating with her and she asked us to spray paint wine bottles.
11. When we took Theatre Appreciation together and had buddies to go with to all of the required performances.
12. When everyone and their brother was doing the Ice Bucket Challenge and we had the best house for it so we were doing at least 2 a day. And Sydney was the champion ice dumper. Especially for Cody Pulsipher.
13. When she indulged my weakness for the baby elephant at the Tucson Zoo and went with me to see it.
14. When we reenacted Taylor and Natalie's engagement on the top of Mt. Lemmon even though Sydney wasn't there the first time it happened. (I totally said yes)
15. When we went to the Phoenix temple open house and Avery casually "texted" on her phone that doesn't work throughout the entire tour.
16. When we went to Terror in the Corn for the second time and a creepy clown made us nearly pee our pants.
17. When we did a workout video that one time and the black man spoke to all of our souls. He really let the music move him.
18. When we had the most mind-blowing missionary object lesson of all time. Ever. And Elder Dayley spelled out "LSD" instead of "LDS" and we all cried from laughing.
19. When we got free monsters for the first time at Circle K and could only take mine into the game. But then this year only Syd could take hers into the game. It's fine because we're good at sharing.
It's tricky to sum up all of the amazing times that we have together because it seems that we are always cracking up and crying/almost peeing our pants from laughing so hard. There is a good time to be had no matter where Syd Rich goes because she brings the party!! I know that there are an infinite number of good times that we have had and since there are so many it's hard to remember them all. I hope you have the best birthday in the whole world Syd because you are worth it!!!! Happy 19th :) Congrats on being the same age as me and for being a lovely young woman. Love you squirrel!
