Apt. No. 5

To our blog readers from both near and far, welcome! We, the six, of apt. no. 5 have decided to start this blog in order to keep you, our dear friends and family, apprised of all the wonderful and crazy things going on in 3005 West Do our apartment. (Probably not too smart to put the address on the internet. See parents, we're responsible!)

To start with, I just want to give you a little bit of background info on each occupant. Its no fun to read about people you don't even know, right?

Let's start with Kalli Parette. She looks like this:

Beautiful.

Kalli grew up in China, which most people think is super cool and yeah she can speak Chinese, big deal. Let me tell you about the REAL Kalli. She really likes to eat yogurt, peanut butter and granola. A. Lot. She's addicted to coffee and she's got the best singing voice I ever did hear. Maybe if you're lucky, she'll sing for you. Or to you.

Now on to Sarah Claire Frederick. This is one of my personal favorite pictures of her:

Isn't she adorable?

One time we took a vote among our friends of who we thought the craziest was. Sarah won. She's got the best hair of the group, that's for sure, and along with that hair comes the infamous "hair dance." If you're around her for more than 10 minutes, you'll probably see it. She's super smart and she loves all things Asian, ESPECIALLY Koreans.

On to the roommate with the coolest name: Lauren Leatherby. Doesn't that just roll off the tongue?

If you can think of a cool place, Lauren has probably been there. Twice. And petted a cat. She is definitely the most stylish resident of apt. no. 5. She can always show you the great YouTube video and she really loves cats. The girl can daaaance, and she can paint/draw anything that your crazy brain can think up. Also, did I mention that she likes cats?

Next up is Jessica Hawley. She looks like THIS:

Jessica is amazing. She always has enough energy to go on a run, take a shower, eat breakfast and get some homework done all before the rest of us are even thinking of getting out of bed. And odds are she went to bed hours after the rest of us too. She is all kinds of fun, and is surprisingly ladylike for growing up with five brothers!


Moving right along, KATY COURTWAY. Just look at her:


Katy is the coolest. THE COOLEST. She is always down to do something fun, and its more than likely it was her idea. She is about to start her second summer as a white-water rafting guide in Colorado, which means she's a beast, and can beat anyone in an arm wrestling match. Even a grizzly bear on steroids.

Next, the manliest of the roommates, Jared the Beta.



Jared enjoys swimming in his tank, hanging out with his dinosaur friend, and cuddling with Blind Betty at night. He occasionally enjoys a glass of good wine, but only when he is not keeping a watchful eye over the apartment. He is currently participating in a daily workout regimen to prepare for his fight with the Beta in apartment 8.

Finally, me!


I don't really have much to say about myself, other than the fact that I count myself incredibly lucky to live with each one of these amazing girls featured above me!

So yeah, that is Apt. no. 5 for you, in a nutshell.
