Hunger Games Mania

MIDNIGHT PREMIERE OF THE HUNGER GAMES! We decided to go all out, and streaked our hair to be like Capitol citizens, but then we also wore mockingjay shirts that my roommate made. We then sat in the Provo Towne Centre theater for a couple of hours in anticipation!

My roommates and our movie tickets!

Some boys from the ward that we helped dress up in Capitol attire (notice Seneca Crane's beard-that was actually a popular trend we saw that night).
Finally in the theater after all those months of waiting!

Between the FHE video we made and this premiere, I have actually had some people in my ward call me Katniss!

Around all this hype, another ward date activity was being planned. They did a "compatibility" test (it asked what your favorite Disney movie was, favorite color, etc.) and matched us up. Then the boys were told to ask us out when they got our name. We are supposed to dress up as a famous couple. Soooo this is what I got on my doorstep one night...

Underneath the bread, there was a paper with tape over it (I guess to protect it from grease) and it said "to find out who Peeta is and who to return the pan to, turn over) and it said-

Now, this is a preemie in my ward who is shorter and obviously younger than me in my ward. I actually used him for my Intro to Youth Leadership class last semester because I had to interview an adolescent, and I knew his older brother Austin. I asked Austin if I could borrow his little brother who was 18 and fit in the right age category. I felt bad calling him adolescent but it was pretty funny, because his brother and other roommates proceeded to call him Adamlescent, and so now that's what my apartment has always called him as well. He and I have actually become good friends through Institute and Mission Prep, and he actually helped me with the idea for The Dating Games movie because we talk Hunger Games a lot. Here was my reply to his bread-

I haven't been that creative with an asking for a date since freshman year, so it was fun to keep up with his creativity and obvious well thought out plan. Our preemies are so precious in our ward, this should be a fun date on Friday. I will have to post pictures of us as Katniss and Peeta next.
