Why I will NEVER eat Banana cream pie again!!

***The OLYMPICS. As football is to Superbowl or Miss Universe to pageantry. Hands down the best day at sea so far. Opening ceremonies was in the Union. Everyone came and did their cheers. Every floor is divided into seas, given colors, and two captains. We rolled in last and won. Of course, Grant wrote another bomb rap for us.

**Then the day becomes a smorgasbord of random competitions. Being on the committee, Jamie and I hosted the Toilet Paper Fashion Show. Then it was off to pie eating. Now keep in mind I was mega nervous. It was a women’s heat, fastest to finish an entire legit pie wins. I stepped in last second. In the guy’s heat, Conner won for Aegean and everyone was on a huge rush. They were like you have to win, you have to win. Great- no pressure right?? So here comes the next 2 minutes of my life. Banana cream. BANANA CREAM. So here’s a secret- I HATE pie. Unless it’s French silk or substantially devoured with chocolate. But a banana cream? Well, they counted down and here goes! No hands. 2 minutes of banana goodness. I had it on my nose, up my nose, on my chest, and at some point there was blood in the pan. But I won. I WON! I dominated! Turns out that there was a problem in judging and they threw it. THREW IT. So my big win is thrown out the window because of a bunch of dumb girls. That’s fine… toss out 500 points. I invite everyone who did to sit down and smother their face in pie and about 2976352623 calories of disgusting goodness. Anyways, then it was to watch sync swim, which we won. I was in potato sculpting, which is actually an irony considering the day after had ‘mashed potato’s’ at lunch. Yum. Then I had hosted the Dean Says. Blah. After dinner I helped our boys get ready for lip sync, which was phenomenal! Yellow sea did a bunch of rap songs, Caribbean did a Britney medley, Adriatic was pirate themed, so on so forth. 10 Seas. Ours was 5 guys doing Soldier Boy as a joke, then undressing into basically my entire wardrobe, and dancing to 90’s pop. You know- Barbie Girl, Spice Girls, and finishing with Britney Spears. AMAZING. I couldn’t be more happy with my sea. In the end we placed 2nd for lip sync, and 4th overall. Baltic won, which was out of left field. It was the best day ever and I couldn’t love my floor more. PS. The blood in the pie? Was a cut from the tin on my chin.
