Girls Gone Mild: Duck Beach Mormon Style
Apparently the unwed LDS are feeling extra pressure this year because of President Monson's words on marriage at this past April's General Conference. What has this obscure Mormon spring break making headlines this year is that there is a documentary being filmed called Duck Beach A Single Mormon Story. The filmmakers are planning on capturing the mystery of a weekend "fraught with sexual tension."
We sistas would like to give our peeps headed to NC this weekend some tips on how to stay SAFE & CHASTE.
1) Remember. Remember that there will be a camera crew there filming a documentary. Remember that people will be taking pictures and posting it on Facebook. Remember to not do anything that you wouldn't want us to find on YouTube and post on our blog, because yes, we are like that, we will post it.
2) Practice safe text. Those flirty text messages can get you all hot and bothered and into a whole heap of trouble. Here's what you do. Click on the contact button at the top of our site and send us an email with "Safe Text" in the subject line. We'll send you a phone number, where you can cc us on every text you send this weekend. Knowing that we will see everyone of your texts and post them on our Facebook wall in a hot second, should keep your texts clean and pure.
3) Chasity belt. Wear a fanny pack and keep your scriptures in them. Seriously, it's harder to be unchaste when you have to get through Second Nephi first.
4) No cohabitation. Remember when you were little and you had that sign on your bedroom door or your tree house that said "NO GIRLS/BOYS ALLOWED" bring it with you.

5) Eternal perspective. Remember you are there to find an eternal companion not eternal damnation.
6) Modest is the hottest. Keep your clothes on.
7) Have fun. The I'm going to Disney land kind of fun, not the I'm auditioning for MTV's Jersey Shore type of fun.
Got any other tips to keep our Duck Beach brothers and sisters SAFE & CHASTE?
Remember who you are,

1. Remember that NCMO (non-commital makeout) is just as big of a NO-NO
2. Feet on the floor with an open door for all opposite sex interactions
3. Shaking your grove thing may be shaking his morals, keep the dancing conservative
4. In general, the qualities you are looking for in a mate are the same qualities you should possess. If the behavior you are exhibiting would turn you off of a guy/girl, it's probably turning guys/girls off of you.
4. If you don't find your EC, don't fret, God has a plan for your life and your time WILL come
I think your tips are just right.
=)
PS. Let's hope our peeps represent in the documentary...

I love it sisters! Thanks for shining the light on this righteous group of Young Adults:) Hope I get to see this someday.
M advice... don't put yourself in a place where you have to explain what you're doing to anyone. You might think it's funny now... but when you're parents see the pictures one day it probably won't be funny anymore.
Ways to avoid trouble:
1. stay at home with a good book (content in the knowledge that your eternal companion will probably be doing the same exact thing)
2. play the lone wolf (keeps you moody and mysterious and away from trouble)
by the way, jk on both counts. I'm so wierd.
I absolutely LOVE your blog and your comments. They are amusing but, seriously, might help all those singles this weekend!!!
I am in the Nags Head Ward where they all showed up to church yesterday. What a great bunch.
Oh, I soooo know what you mean here! Glad you posted this!
Ha ha, I agree with the staying home part. I probably would have done the same thing.
Anyone planning on going should also read Jocelyn's post over at We Talk of Christ, We Rejoice in Christ - she was going to go and a tree fell on her car. And then she ended up spending the whole time with her future husband, anyway! :) So if you do want to go, just make sure you park your car away from any trees that might fall on it.
Went to Duck, duck, beach and didn't get duck, duck goosed! I didn't see your rules before I went but I think I followed them all. Just found you girls, soooooo funny!
You are awesome! I loved this post and you told it how it is. Hand clapping is in order for this one.
Blessings to you!

By the way google is having a problem with comments so this is posted under anonymous.
The 2 Nephi part was classic.
This is some funny and good counsel, girls. Keep up the good work.
