| I think it was sometime during fifth grade when I realized that I had a deep, low (not girly) voice and was very unsatisfied about it. I'd always complain about how I sounded like a boy.
Case in point: I used to live with my cousin Kenny and I distinctly remember an incident when my parents called home and they couldn't tell us apart on the phone.
Mom: Hello? Who is this?
Me: ITS ME.
Mom: Who?
Me: JENNY.
Mom: KENNY?
Me: NO. JENNY. J-E-N-N-Y.
Mom: WHAT? K-E-N-N-Y?
Me: Sigh.
Maybe there was just bad reception that day.
Another time in CCS, I was in an elective class and had to read to children. So I sat down next to a little girl and introduced myself.
Me: Hi! I'm Jenny
Little Girl: You sound like a boy.
Children are so cruel.
So one of my hallmates walked into my room one day:
Him: I heard a voice coming from your room earlier.
Me: That was probably me..I was on the phone.
Him: No but it sounded like a guy talking.
Me: Oh..that was still probably me.
Ever since I came to college, I've gotten a bunch of comments about my voice as well. I've been told that I have a husky/thick voice. Someone even asked me if I was born in America...because I have a deep voice (which makes no sense but anyway). One of the dining hall workers told me that he liked my voice because it was different. Before I'd always wish that my voice was just ever so slightly higher pitched and more "girly". Whenever I go karaoke with friends and we're singing High School Musical songs (please dont judge me =[), I always sing Zac's part just because I can't hit the girl notes. But I think I've finally learned to appreciate it because I guess ..there aren't too many girls out there with husky voices. :)

| My roomate GraceTwo weeks ago, I came back to my room and my roommate Grace turned around and said, "JENNY. I'VE BEEN IN THE ER ALL DAY" What happened was while she was climbing up the ladder to her bed, she fell off and hit her head...twice...and somehow induced some head trauma. (I'm still a little confused as to how it happened).
Last week she went to visit a friend in a hospital. She saw a mouse near the driveway of the hospital and tried to shoo it away so it would not get run over by cars. As she was shooing the mouse away, it bit her and she had to go to the ER.
OH GRACIE..

| So my friend ordered a textbook online for her neuroscience class. The description said, "book comes with CD". When the book arrives, she plays the CD and its just a mix CD of Justin Timberlake songs.

| Back in October we decorated our dorm lounge all Halloween like ..with skeletons and pumpkins and everything. When we had to take the decorations down, we kept one of the skeletons and there has been ongoing pranks among our suites involving the skeleton. One time somebody hung the skeleton in my closet which totally freaked me out..but that's nothing compared to Jessica's ingeniousness:

| So tomorrow for our fellowship, we have a white elephant gift exchange where each person has to buy a gift worth $5 to exchange. So I went to the campus bookstore and bought a stack of printing paper as my gift. AM I SILLY OR AM I SILLY.
