Tornado in the City & 3 Weddings

Stacey and I, along with a bunch of other people were studying for a test, and we had our notes spread ALL over the place. She had gone down the hall to use the restroom when I looked out the window of the skycraper hotel we were in to notice 5 tornados. They were all HUGE, but one was especially scary b/c it was moving SO fast. I grabbed a comforter off of the bed and yelled "EVERYONE TAKE COVER!" I took the comforter and ran into the closet to find better protection. I sat down and then realized that Stacey wouldn't know where I was, so I ran out of the closet to find her to bring her back to the closet with me. But of course, she had a different idea. She thought too much air would rush under the door and through the cracks, but when I mentioned to here that there was only one small window in the closet vs. the whole wall of windows outside of the closet, she agreed. Once we were inside the closet, I was instructing us to cover ourselves with the blanket. Stacey did so, but then she also stuck her feet between the crack in the door and the floor (I guess to stop the air?!?!). I told her that wasn't a good idea b/c she might lose a foot. She agreed and quickly unhinged her foot. Then we waited. We felt the building begin to shake and it was picked up and turned 4 times before it was sat back down. I was so worried about my notes... did they survive?! Was I going to have to get all new notes?! Would they cancel school!?! So after the tornado was over, I was all the sudden back in Arkansas. Mom owned a store there, so I went to visit and everyone was feeling sorry for me and the tests and the tornado.

I was on my way to attend some weddings downtown when I realized there were 3 weddings going on at one time, and I was invited to all 3. My sister was going to one of my ZTA sisters weddings which was upstairs to my other ZTA sister's wedding. I decided to go to the downstairs wedding. As I start walking (skipping) down the stairs, I notice it was a different friend than I thought!! Same name, just different girl! But I had such momentum going down the stairs I couldn't stop, which was unfortunate b/c this stairway was uncompleted and it dropped off with about 15 steps left to go. I landed really hard and thought I probably broke something, but then I got up and was fine! I found mom and Shel at the upstairs wedding and wore a purple pansey in my hair.
