Learn how to converse! {fan mail}

Here is an email a friend of mine sent me.

-----------------

So I asked a girl to Mormon prom. We went to dinner, then headed off to the dance. Neither of us were big for dancing. So, i tried starting up some conversations. she would NOT converse!! I got sick of doing all the work and only get the answers like "yup" or "oh yea" so I decided to do something else. I decided to do a front flip. Normally, on grass I could do one. But I had forgotten that I wasn't in a "normal" situation. I had dress pants, a tucked in shirt and tie, dress shoes, and I was on a dance floor. I went for the flip, and landed on my butt. I got back up while everyone was laughing, my date asked if I was okay. I said yes, but my dignity was severely injured. Not really, but I was embarrassed. So the rest of the night, she still wouldn't converse, and it was a sucky date overall.

Girls, if you don't want your date to make himself, and you look like a fool, TALK TO THEM!!! AND NOT SHORT ANSWERS, ELABORATE, TELL STORIES! It will make the date 10 times more fun, and less awkward. Especially if it's a first date! I met up for lunch on a blindish date (a girl  I used to know when I was little) recently, and she TALKED to me as a said above! We only were there for 30 minutes, but I had tons more fun than the dance date!

Thanks so much for sharing!!! Great advice! To everyone else, send us your stories! This is a perfect example of what we want! :)

Hey friends! So this blog is still in the works, but I thought I'd kick off this blog with a funny story from a few years ago. It's my favorite embarrassing story that is usually only shared around the campfire at girls camp, but I guess I will share since it has to do with the subject of "boys".

So a few years ago I had a huge crush on this kid.... Well as big of a crush you can have on someone during your Jr. High years. This kid acted like he didn't know me.

This particular year my parents were in charge of all of the food for Trek {Trek is a thing that us Mormons do, where we dress up like pioneers, and go reenact the trek the pioneers made.} I at the time was not yet old enough to go on pioneer trek so I got to stay at my friends house.

I don't know what my friend and I were thinking on this particular day, but we found some stickers in the form of letters, and shapes... And we put them on our thighs.

Mine went something like:


I

{insert crush's name here}
My friend's was similar, but with a different name.
My friend had two guinea pigs at the time and we
{picture via. Google}
thought "I wonder if guinea pigs can swim?!" So we headed outside in our swimsuits to test it out. Guinea pigs can in fact swim! It's crazy! So we ran around outside for a while catching and playing with the two guinea pigs in the little kiddy pool. 
Now, you know those sunburns that leave perfect tan-lines....or should I say burn-lines? Ya...both of us got one of these. Remember the stickers? Ya... The words I <3 {insert crush's name here} was BURNED INTO OUR LEGS! I'm not kidding when I say you could read it from a mile away.
The greatest funspot you'll
ever know!

Now you would think that after getting a sunburn this bad you would try to avoid the sun.... and more importantly avoid swimsuits. But no. Not us! The next day my friends mom took us to Cherry Hill! As we where walking around looking like red tomatoes my friend noticed someone she recognized... can you guess who that was?!
YUP! You guessed it! Se saw the same person, who's name was burned into her thigh! ha! I was laughing and she went and put her shorts on over her swimsuit. {they were not swim shorts in the slightest.}
Well I was just laughing about the whole thing when someone I recognized walked up to us as we where sitting in our big grey beach chairs.
Can you guess who that was?!?
YUP!
I about died! I tried to act normal, all the while trying to lean on my leg with my elbow to cover up my sun tattoo. I probably looked like my spine had just been detached from my body making it so I couldn't sit up. I don't know what was said, but I know he made no reference to it... though I'm not sure he didn't notice. We never spoke of it.
The sun tattoo didn't go away for over a month.
I wore shorts any time I went swimming in public, and made sure my shorts for tumbling were long enough to cover it.
We learned a valuable lesson that day. Never ever write your crush's name on your leg....or other part of your body... in any way shape or form. It could end in embarrassment.
That's all for now!
Love ya!
