Spin Me Right Round Baby!

I love Rexburg. It's a pretty place with a bunch of Mormons and basically everything is in walking distance. Here in Rexburg we have a Walmart, a Cocoa Bean (which I'm sure will get a whole blog post at a later date, simply because I love that place sooooo much), a milkshake shop (actually multiple milkshake shops), a bowling alley and a Taco Bus.... But, as much as I love it here, there is only so much you can do in a town that is situated in the middle of nowhere and is only 9.8 square miles. It's a well known fact that Rexburg, on it's own, would be pretty boring. (No offense... :)

But actually, that's where the real fun comes in. See if you're going to be a college student in a place like Rexburg, where a trip to Walmart is considered "getting out of the house" and a date could be meeting someone for lunch in the Student Cafeteria (which I have done actually), you have to get creative!

Our last great venture was Kacee's idea. She saw it on a blog somewhere and decided that she wanted to try it. The even better thing about this idea was that it required minimum planning and very limited equipment. For this activity ladies and gentleman you need:


  • A large circular dryer- we have plenty of these in our laundry room so it was no problem!
  • Man power- we tried this with women power and it worked out okay, but man power is much better
Basically what you do, is one person gets in the dryer while another person (preferably a man... see this is where the man power comes in) spins the dryer so you go around in circles. 

It was a blast!!! First we only had Anise, Kacee and me to do the spinning but then Toni's brother Troy and his friend Brad stopped by and we asked them for help. To make things even better, Troy actually got in the dryer and took it for a spin or two. 

I'm telling you, the next time you're a poor college student with a bit of free time on your hands, find a dryer and make it a date night! 

Oh and if a video isn't enough, here's a couple pictures of our venture :)
