cin.getline

Well here I am again. Still not done with my homework. IT WONT WORK. cin.getline is evil. from the devil. it will not work. there are 8 errors and they are all cin.getline errors. And my brother has decided to turn off his phone???? its due at midnight. i don't think i am going to turn it in.

today was really fun. i did homework all day. after class i came home and ate lunch. Cause i am used to eating at 11 30, which is soooo insanely early. but i need food before work so i'm used to eating early. then after a wee bit of tv watching i went back to campus to go do homework at the library. i love doing homework at the library. i don't know why but just like the way it feels to be there. it makes me feel smart. after feeling smart at the library i went to the GEOSPA lab and worked on all my GIS stuff. i still need to finish it. there is soooo much of it. this semester my life is a neverending homework assignment. i'm sorry i complain about it so much but it is just so horrid and i get stressed. i can't even remember when my classes are. on tues i had to keep reminding myself not to go to old main, cause i totally would have walked straight there to...not my class. that is mwf. sigh.

i have 62 minutes left to turn in my assignment. i guess i should go back to staring at it somemore....

OMG I totally dyed sarens hair tonight!!!!!! i have always wanted to dye someones hair cause it looks really fun to use the dye and brush on thier hair and stuff. it was everything i imagined and more!!!!! i got to do it twice cause i bleached it then put this awesomely cool red color in it. i did forget one blond piece in the back....but you can't even see it. it looks soooo good though. which i am glad cause i was afraid i was going to mess up and turn her hair green and then she would kill me. i shall have to post pictures of the glorius event. but blogger takes to long for that at the moment.

saren just went to betos and she said she was going to get me a cheese quesidilla, which i totally and completley love.

(i have to go to the dentist tomwowm. i haven't been in over a year. i think i might cry)

I am trying to do the homework assignment from hell right now. It really is so awful. Computer programming is not for me. I don't even understand it. I have no idea how to even do any of it. If it weren't for the brother I would totally be failing because I don't ever know or understand how to do the assignments. Its just so stupid. She does super easy examples in class and then expects us to know how to do super complex confusing problems blah blah blah. I HATE IT. I honestly can not do it. I can't. I don't even know where to begin or what the crap I am doing. I just type in random crap hoping that it how to do it. Then I run the program and it fails, then I change some stuff and it fails again.....and this continues for a long time. I am done complaining. now. i give up.

Fry Street

So i had to go to this quartet performance just a minute ago...it was 2 and half hours long. Now it wasn't all bad. I did enjoy some of it. I kept wondering what happens if someones string breaks. does that happen often? what does the person do? do they have backup instruments? then i really wanted someones string to break so that i could see what happens....when that happens. the cello lady was super funny to watch. she had the greated facial expressions. and the viloa player kept almost hopping out of his chair every few minutes while he was playing.

i also enjoyed the conversation of the girls sitting next to me during intermission. girl A is on some pill....i think it is some sort of weight loss pill. But you aren't supposed to eat for 30 to 60 minutes before and after. and you cant drink it with pop cause it will just dissolve this drug...and all sorts of other weird stuff. then she says that the drug isn't FDA approved....only FDA something...i don't remember what she said. but its not totally approved for use. so maybe she is doing some study. girl B, who isn't taking drugs is talking about how you don't need to be taking pills to lose weight and pointing out all these other weird facts....but girl A is doing all of those things....i don't know. i would have been insulted. girl A also points out that fen-fen(phen-phen?) wasn't FDA approved either.....ok....cause that turned out so good(well)? so lets just go ahead and try this new drug and see if it works better........

will someone please take my test for me next tuesday? i can't do it. its open book and open notes so you should do fine on it.

i freaking love little kids. they are hilarous. i curled my hair today. and i knew this would cause some commotion among the kids. i was right. three or four told me they thought my hair was pretty. which is adorable. one kept pointing and wanted to smell it (not sure why), also cute. and one thought i looked funny. which is hilarious. little kids are never afraid to tell you what they think. oh yeah. and i got invited to play video games after school. which is also adorable.

I was going to write a blog. But then I started reading other blogs. And now I have to leave soon. Cause i have to go talk to one of my professors. Cause i didn't do very good on a test I just took. Didn't do very good is an understatement though, i did absolutely HORRIBLE. I forgot how to calculate map scale. I didn't write it down on my handy dandy 3x5 card? WHAT WAS I THINKING. I wasn't obviously. (mozilla thinks all my contractions are spelled wrong?)

I need to go make my lunch to take to school. I get to eat lunch in a cafeteria on a table that is way to small for my long legs and with a bunch of little kids that won't eat there food. I love it.

Where you been

I got sick almost two weeks ago and i am still coughing.

So You Think You Can Dance

woooo hooooo. I have wanting to write about this for a week now. And I am really tired but I am gonna stay up and do it anyways.

SYTYCD was amAAAAAAZING. Holy cow. Can't even tell you how good it was. so many good dances...i'm speechless.
This is us. Being cool. And you all love the way these pictures are posting but i'm to tired to change it. This was the best dance ever. Luuuved it.














Bleeding Love was by far the best. No air, and a bunch of others were good too. It was all just the best ever. And we went out to eat before....and I can't think right now....i don't know what i'm saying.

I have a test tomwomwo. oh yeah. we did tie dye for fhe on monday. it went pretty good i think considering i had no idea what i was doing. then i was really tired. and people made dinner and i ate it. Now i'm going to go to bed. good night.

well, you forgot poland.

yeah. really the homework isn't going so well. (why i do people keep walking by my window with their parents) i just can't do it. which means i'll have to do it tomwomwm. so i was back on Urban Dictionary.

but i thought this was hilarious. I laughed for a long time.



You Forgot Poland

What you say to a person when you have been one-upped by said person in an argument or debate of some sort. Pretty much just lets you try to get the last word in when you have no other retort.

Person A: "Oh man! We got jumped by like twelve guys and kicked all their (butts)!"
Person B: "Actually there were three; Steve McPeterson, Dave Ellis, and that guy that works the Wendy's drive-thru."
Person A: "Well, you forgot Poland."

Thats so awesome!

I was just on Urban Dictionary looking up some stuff to see if I was going to write my paper with words from there.....anyway. I looked up awesome. it said...

1.	awesome
	Something Americans use to describe everything.

so true.

hahahaha....ahahahaha. anyways.

I'll talk about sytycd later....i'm doing homework.....tear.

Picture day is tues

Yesterday I had to go to a show called Nunsense. And can I just say. It was pretty dang funny. The show is about these nuns who are going to put on a variety show on so they can raise money to bury the last 4 of their 52 sisters that died from eating the crazy cooks food. It was really good. Or maybe I just like nuns.

I went home on Friday night so that I could get some homework done in my life. Which I did manage to do a little done. After walking around all the new house stuff and eating Betos and seeing the little brother and all that other going home stuff I homeworked it.

This is what its looking like these days. Its not to big or anything but I think it will be cool when its all finished.














Its so crazy. And did I mention that the ditches in my front yard got filled in?!?! This really is a very big moment in the lives of my family. We have had ditches in my front yard forEVer. And everyone and their dog is always afraid that they are going to fall in. And once, Millie Haws' mom did fall in. They had a huge 15-seater. And I think there was snow involved? But she slid down the ditch a bit and it was kinda scary for a minute. But everything human and car survived.
















I also started getting sick on Friday night. My throat starting hurting, stuffy nose....all that fun stuff. And now I really don't feel so well. And I am losing my voice. But really I am ok with that cause I kind of like it when I lose my voice.

I am going to So You Think You Can Dance on Tuesday!!!!!!!! I can't wait! And bonus. It will count for an event for my art class. AND I have to go to the opera tomwomw, which is Monday and then to a gallery walk on Friday. And the nun show that I just went to. Its busy week of the arts I guess. I will feel very cultured at the end of the week.

List it:

1- I hate screamo
2- Yesterday at work. Bloody noses and exploding mayonnaise packets. Both all over me.
3- I like having the internet
4- I like yogurt. Again. It must be a beginning of the school year thing.
5- Saren makes good orange julius'
6- I like basketball shorts.
7- I have lots of homework. that i don't do
8- I am going to so you think you can dance in a weekish. i am excited.
9- this was a short list

sunday day

I have just come home from my friends house a little early cause everyone was outside and i was cold. So I came home and got in my pajamas and was going to come sit in my living with my computer(and internet!) and watch some television before bed. And what was on? Why the MTV music awards awards! And I was just in time to hear the Jonas Brothers! What are the MTV Music Awards anyways? What do they even do?

ps. Did I tell you all i received a calling this year at church? Yes its true. I am a FHE mom. I am a mother mom. hahahaha. i don't know why i typed that. i don't remember typing it. I got distracted. So I was distracted....cereal sounds good right now. And now a really awful song is on...? The singer dude needs to pull his pants up.

At school. My favorite thing is that a lot of the kids call there back pack or book bags (what are they really called. I think i call them both cause i always get confused.) but they call them pack-pack. packpack. Its adorable.

my life is truly complete now. I have the internet in my home. sigh...i am at peace.

I'm feeling rather antsy at the moment. I am over at Daniel's house using the internet. Cause yeah, I still don't have it. The upstairs people got it but they have to buy a router? I thought it usually just came with one of those? Guess not. My book came for my class and this makes me very happy and less stress is now in my life. I might be able to do my homework now. I should go do my homework.....

grrr

THE SOUND ON MY COMPUTER ISN'T WORKING. Its not working at all. No sound whatsoever is coming out. It works if you plug the earphones in but thats it. It is not making me happy.

Having BLT's for dinner is helping a little though.

argh.

yup.

I HATE NOT HAVING THE INTERNET. Seriously. Its killing me. I am WAY to dependent on the internet to not have instant access to it 24/7. And just my luck, all 4 of my classes require to be able to have access to said internet 24/7. woot......so I have been going up to campus and to my brothers apt to use the internet everyday since school has started. Right now I'm institute building. I am soooo very glad that I didn't have my lab today so I could come and catch up with everything in my life.

I have now forgotten what I was going to write about....

oh well. School is going good. Its going to be hard. I don't know if I can handle it. Work is...we shall see how that is going to continue to go.

Oh yeah I remember. There is one good thing about my lack of internet usage. I haven't been on Facebook in ages...well except like 4 seconds ago. But I can't get on to check if 4 times a day. Which is good cause its kind of boring me at the moment. So I don't even care.

I got a new camera. And I have only taken 2 new pictures on it. Sad day. So I don't have anything exciting to put up. Wait I do!

For a while now my parentals have been wanting to add on to the house. They have been drawing up all sorts of different plans for months. And they have finally decided to go through with it and get it done. So we have a very large hole in the backyard. At least thats what I have been told. My dad sent me some pictures.

This is a very large pile of dirt. And my dogs. I like them.

This is a picture of the big hole. I think I am going home tomworow so that I can see the big hole. And my family. Its really just strange that my house is going to be so different. Its been the same way since we have lived there. Crrrazy.







ps. My apt is quite lovely. Only the dishwasher is about a 1000 years old and flooded the first time it was turned on. The plumber came a fixed it. And we can't open our mailbox.

My first day of school.

School has begun again. It feels really wierd to be back at school. I have a really wierd schedule and I have a feeling that I won't ever know what it is. My house doesn't have the internet anymore. So I am over at my brothers apartment right now. I had to return his free laundry key....that I won't ever be using. I was just keeping it safe.....His air conditioning is broken right now though and he lives on the top floor....its hot. School was fine though. blah blah blah whatever.

Work on the other hand.....I can't talk about it. I will be working with younger kids this year. And I thought that it was going to be a lot easier, but now I'm not so sure......holy cow. Its going to be another interesting year thats for sure. I have a picture of the lovely house warming guest we had come visit. My camera is downstairs in my car though....I'll go get it maybe......But he didn't stay for very long.

Its way to hot up here. I have no desire to walk down the stairs and back up to this oven. So later with the pictures.

I don't want to pay for cable tv.

post

I started work on Wed. Its going to be a lot different than last year. Different but good. Good but different. AND I GET A RAISE!! (got, get?) who cares! A raise!!! You really have no idea how exciting that is. It just made my day. And I got a book from the library. Now you really are jealous.

I moved! I hate moving. I don't know how to pack. I always just want to pack everything I own into shoe boxes. But its all good. Our new apt is waaaay cool. We have a brand new black leather couch and chair. And a nice table, and good carpet and a REAL bed. Not like that rock that I had to sleep on all summer long. (ps. they just got new mattress' today. The place I lived at for the summer, thanks for waiting until after I move out.) Me and Ashely got the big bedroom too! We have lots of crap. Too much I am thinking. She isn't moving in for a few days cause shes in Texas.....driving home. So I am roommateless for the moment.

AND one of the greatest things I think is that this place doesn't have internet but the internet from the place I lived in the fall works all the way over here. Being across the streets. Otherwise I don't think I could survive cause I don't know when the manager dude is getting wireless.

HI SHANE!!! YOU'RE REALLY COOL!!!.

ps. Michael Phelps is still awesome!

we come and we go

ahhhhhh he did it! he really did it! Michael Phelps won 8 gold medals!! so cool. really. amazing.

I am back in Logan. And cannot wait to start work and school. I am soooo very done with being unemployed. At some point I need to start packing. Maybe I should have started doing that a few days ago. But I didn't really see the need. I just have empty boxes and crap all over the place instead. I was supposed to have been able to move a few days ago but we couldn't.....I don't know.

I kind of hate the beginning of the school year because you have to spend so much money. You have to have two months rent instead of one. You have to go buy a ton of food cause you have been surviving on a half a gallon of milk and a box of cheerios for the past week because you don't want to have to move a ton of food to your new apt. All of a sudden there are millions of other things you need to buy because you weren't really sure how you lived without it for the summer. And books for school and you always have to have a few new clothes for the new year. (especially if you work at an elem where all the little kids get new clothes. i should get some too) And you decide to get your hair dyed instead of just cut!!! Holy cow my hair is really quite dark now. I shall have to take a picture sometime soon. I got my hair done though cause I got my retirement check so I figured I could spend that. Yes can you believe I am already getting retirement!! No sorry, I wish. I had a 401k when I worked at the library and since I only worked there for about 4 seconds it just loses money every 3 months or something. I should have canceled it ages ago cause I would have got a lot more money.

My brother is moving up here too this year. We even have a class together. Really I don't know how that happened. I'm not sure how I feel about it, everyone will probably think were married. So that should be interesting. I think the class involves math though so I suppose its good that I already know someone in the class who's decent at math.

Two words:

Edward and Michael.

I broke down yesterday and bought the last book in the Twilight series, Breaking Dawn. I wasn't even going to read cause I really didn't care cause I figured it was just going to make me mad. But I read the end.....hahahah.....people hate that I do that. But really people, I can't even explain to you how much better it makes it know then end of books (most, there are a few exceptions i suppose). The anticipation is sooooo much better. Cause you what happens at the end but you don't know what happens inbetween all that. (not that i don't read ahead while i am reading) But for this book I really wasn't even going to waste my time reading over 750 pages if it wasn't going to end good. I liked the Host, but it wasn't the best and I was afraid that Breaking Dawn was going to be the same. Anyways....I'll stop rambling. Overall, it was good. There were a few things that I didn't like. I might even read it again some days.

uh...can you say Michael Phelps? Holy cow, he's amazing. I had to watch his races last night today cause I was reading last night. He's crazy. And all the winning of all those gold medals...really its just to much. Makes me want to cry really. And he swims, which means he doesn't wear a shirt. And that just makes it all the better. And mens gymnastic team. Yeah, tear for them too. I just think its all fascinating.

I guess I am going back to Logan tomwomw. I haven't been up there in almost a month....which technically means I can be thrown out of my apt? Because I haven't been there in over two weeks. I don't know why they care. I paid, and I'm not even there to trash the place so you would think this was a good thing? Whatever. I think we are moving out soon anyways.

I will post pictures of dc!! But only a few, I took over 500 pictures. I got a little crazy with the camera. (ps. i got my new camera. its black. and cool. your jealous)

This is me right before I crushed the Washington Monument. This is my good friend Don that i met at the Air and Space museum. He was kind of quiet though. (I just love putting pictures up on blogger, it always works so nicely.) Mount Vernon was my Favorite. This is the Lower Garden. I am moving into the house next year. I took like 452 pictures of the Washington Monument. But you have to. It doesn't matter where you go, its always around. It rained like crazy and we chilled under a some food place for awhile. Cool rainbow. The had these cool infrared things at once of the museums. The purply blue stuff in the middle is my HANDS. And the dot about it is my NOSE. It was FREEZING in there people. Notice everyone else's noses are find. Their hands were too. And all the while I was getting frost bite. I had to buy at hoodie at the 2nd air and space museum cause it was so cold. Which made me feel like such a nerd. So I'll probably wear it all winter.

Let the games begin!

I watched the Olympics last night. I love to watch the Olympics. It always chokes me up and makes me want to cry. Like the new Visa commercials with past Olympic stuff? Yeah first time I saw the gymnastics one I got all choked up. But the opening ceremonies were way good. I watched most of it. I would have to say one of my favorite parts was the little nine year old boy that got to walk with the tall Ming person. I thought that was adorable. Yes I might have go choked up. I like the Olympics.

I have been back from my trip for a few days. I think I had jet lag a little. The two hour difference kind of messed me up. I keep walking up at like eight. Trip was fun though. Mount Vernon was my favorite. I will post some pictures when I have my camera back.

uh...I am going to Ikea today!!! Don't really know why. I just decided I wanted to go cause my gma got a catalog and I thought it looked fun. Me and Ashley (Ashely) are going. I don't ever remember how to spell her name.

aloha from dc!!

I am in Washington DC at this very moment. And I am very tired. I have been doing a lot of walking the past few days. My mom wears a little step tracker thing and we walked over 20,000 steps yesterday. In case you aren't aware. Thats A LOT. But I have been having a jolly good time for the most part. And a few not so good ones.

Here are the not so good things that have happened.

-We keep getting sorta lost. We have a GPS thing and it really is terrible. Always trying to take us on these back roads and making my dad confused.

-Its very hot. and humid. And were outside a lot. bad combo.

-Today my dad cracked the screen on my camera and its ruined. It doesn't work anymore. That was sad.

Good Stuff!!

-I love it here!

- Museums are cool. (they do get a little tiresome.) But a good thing overall. my favorites....the wright brothers section of the air and space museum would be one....and the natural history museum was pretty cool.

-LOVE the memorials. Definelty my favorite part. Vietnam, Korea, FDR, Arlington.... loved all those.

-its green.

-Today it started raining. And we were outside with no umbrella. We stood under trees and walked and little and stood under a roof of a concessions stand thinger. I got wet. It was great.

-Saw an IMAX movie on nature. was cool.

-went to really good seafood place in georgetown. I want to go back and go shopping.

-to tired. can't really go on.

lata.

2day

I did absolutely nothing today. Nothing. And I don't care to repeat such a day again.

I did get to watch Avatar though!!!! But that was just tonight. I really like that show. And I don't even know why. I feel like a little kid nerd person watching it.

A few nights ago as I was watching Veronica Mars on my computer I kept being swarmed by mosquitoes. When I got up they were everywhere. There were at least a few hundred. One of our doors was open just a tiny bit so they had been getting in all night. So me and my dad went on a mosquito killing rampage. I killed at least a hundred. It was kind of gross cause they were all over the walls and the floor. It was kind of hilarious though too.

Daniel has some Mongolian music on right now. I'm not sure how I feel about it. Very strange. Now someone is whistling. For the whole song.

Camp Rock!

So me and Travis just got done watching Disney channels newest movie, Camp Rock. And when you put aside all the morals, conscience finding, and horribly predictable plot it was a really good show. I liked the music at the end, pretty catchy stuff. And they sang their duet and I totally loved that to.

And now I am listening to thier music on iTunes, Myspace, and Youtube.

I'm cool like that.

goin' on a trip

I went on a trip to see my good ole' friend Becki just a few days ago. And it was quite an enjoyable trip I must say. The flight to Chicago started with me waking up at 3:30 in the AM. My flight was fine, I slept the whole way and I landed in Minnesota. It smelled and I almost walked out to the baggage claim area. I made it into Chicago and after some baggage struggles, they put my babbge on the flight before me and it had just been sitting in the NWA office while I stood there getting worried that my baggage had been lost.... and some confusion on the curb I found Becki's car and it was all okay. (long run-on sentence.) We did make it home without any others problems so it was all okay.

On Friday me and Becki got pedicures. This was my first time getting a pedicure and I must say it was one of the most enjoyable experiences ever. I will for sure be going to get one of those things again in my life. I think we had to most beautiful toes in the state of Illinois. Really I think we did.


We happy chums after that so we went to the store with her mom and Heidi to buy a tile.


Becki bought a lovely green pant suit and your lives would be for the better if you were to go look at on her blog. I think we just chilled the rest of the day after that. I don't remember at the moment. But I am sure it was fun.

The next morning me Becki and Adam got up early to go see Dark Knight at the IMAX theater. Now that was a good show. I only recognized Heath Ledger once the entire show. He was that creepy and awesome. It was a good show and I bet much better in IMAX than in a normal theater.

That night Becki and her family went to the American Idol concert and I stayed home and watched Jackson. We became really good friends and he didn't cry for a really long time. Which if you know Jackson is a really good accomplishment. He even let me hold him when he was sad. which was also a good thing. These are some pictures of happy Jackson. The one where he is on the left of the screen he was running around the chairs and the Love Sac for like 5 minutes. He thought it was hilarious. That was the only picture I got of him where he wasn't all blurry or not looking at the camera. The other one he is just cute and giggling. Then he started getting upset cause he wanted his mom or dad or grandpa or whoever wasn't there. He was still really cute cause he let me hold him.

Then there was Sunday and lots of people over and eating and talking and other good Sunday stuff such as that. Then there was Monday. I woke up at 7 cause I had to be at the airport on time. We got there and the place where I was checking my baggage was flooded? There was some leak or pipe broken or I have no idea. Then I couldn't check in to my flight. It wouldn't work and the people took about 7 years to figure it out. I got my ticket and didn't have any problems with the security check. I got to my terminal and was waiting and they told us the flight was delayed. Then said it was more delayed....then canceled. I was still doing good at this point. The lady put me on the later flight to Minnesota and I should still make flight to Salt Lake in time.

So....long story short I missed my flight in Minnesota. We sat on the plane for an extra 10 minutes cause there was still a plane at our gate. They let all the people that were going to miss their flights get off first. So I get off and look for my gate and then RUN to my gate. The plane is SITTING there. And the door is closed and there isn't any people at the desk thinger. I walk over to the lady down the way and she is taking 12 years to help the people in front of me. At this point I really just want to be home and do not want to sit in the airport for 3 extra hours for my next flight. I can feel the tears. I am on the verge. The lady is helping me get my ticket for the lady flight and I can't really talk. She goes over to get a money coupon thing so I can buy food and I just lose it. It was awful. She comes back and pats me on the arm and says she hopes my day gets better.

I go into the bathroom and lose it even more. I cry for a bit and come out and look really ugly and red and splotchy. I have to spend the next 3 hours in the stinky Minnesota airport. ugh. I start calling the paretnals after that. blah blah blah i buy t shirts and magnets and buy food for the next 3 hours. My plane leaves on time and I sat around a lot of foreign people and that was cool. I made it home. It was kind of an awful day but yeah. good times all around.

cat

A few days ago someone dumped a kitten off at our house. I took some pictures of her.



She really was adorable. She was really skinny and dirty. But she was cute and she matched our dogs. My dad said we were going to have to take her to the pound....even though we wouldn't have. My mom kind of wanted to keep her. Sadly, when my parentals asked one of the neighbors if they had lost a kitten they said they hadn't, but would keep it if we weren't going to. Sad day. I only got to see her for one day cause I wasn't home when they found her. But thats ok cause she wouldn't have been a kitten for long and I would don't think I would have liked her as much then.



There were fireworks at Weber State on Sunday. They were good, it was fun to see all my friends. But the fireworks were not very long...or maybe I just talked the whole time. Yesterday I went to eat with some of my friends. We all got the special cause the cherry crisp dessert was gone and we got Italian cream cake instead, which was delicious. It was Maddox turkey steaks and I had never had them. Everyone always says how amazingly good they are, but I wasn't to impressed. They were good but I just don't think I am a turkey or chicken or ham or a meatanything steak fan.

My dad had to get up at 5 this morning and his alarm woke me up and I was wide awake. I couldn't go back to sleep. And I had been having some crazy dream and was really confused.

Oh yeah. I read Anne of Green Gables!! I loved it!!! I can't believe I never read it when I was little. I want to read the others now!!! It was sooo good.

I have been listening to the horrible radio all day and I think its starting to make me sick.

friday!

This morning I had a job interview at the library. It went good I think. I left my house to go to my car. My car is red and was parked out in the corner of the parking lot. There was a red car similar to mine parked just 1 space down. So me, looking at my feet cause thats what I do sometimes and I had my new shoes on that make the clicky noise when you walk and making me feel entirely to grown up, I wasn't paying attention. I pushed the unlock button on my key unlocker thing and walked up to my car and opened the door....The inside was black...not gray. After a second of confusion I realized...oh...this isn't my car..... I sheepishly look around and closed the door and walked around the car and the car next to mine and stopped and looked at my car to make sure it was really mine before getting in. So I made it to the interview in my own car and all went good. There wasn't even any of the usual dumb interview questions. And I can still alphabetize and Dewey quite well thank you.

Me and Saren have been watching Dune for the past few days!!! We finished yesterday and were gonna start the 2nd one sometime. And the 2nd one is a lot better than the first. mmhmm.

I think I might read now.


And I'm guessing you all think my dogs are as cute as I think they are.

I lost myself

Let me see. My Fourth of July was not so very interesting really. kk. Start over. Logan does their big fireworks show on the third. So we blanketed it outside the stadium and watched the fireworks. They were good minus the tree blocking the lower works of fire. Then I went home. My family didn't go to the parade in Hooper cause were redoing the downstairs and we got to work all day. So we did that then I went back to Logan that night. I went to a friends bbq. Then came back with Ashely and we began to light are many many sparklers that we took from fhe....You see my bishop owns a fireworks company. They were awfully hard to light but it was fun to light 5 or so at a time.

Jeremy and Katie came back home and Jeremy decided to make a sparkler boat our of a cereal box to float down the canal behind our house. After trying to be fancy he just taped them all up. We went over to the canal and, holy cow! it was soooo cool. They all lit at different time and it was super bright and tons and tons of smoke. We tried to do it again. It wasn't quite as cool as the first time cause they all didn't light the first time. Then we were lighting those flower things....the ones that spin really fast in 3 different colors. We would light them then have to wait till it was almost going off and then throw it in the water and it would spin on top of the water and light up and was all bubbly and smoky. Super cool. ...after that I don't remember what we did.

Two nights ago me and Ashely took a trip to Betos....yes I like the Betos qusideilla. (sp?) We got there and qusideilla was the same as the kids meal one. So we had to ask if the kids mean one was smaller. The answer was alskdfjowefkazom...? So Ashely orders. Ok we'll go with the kids meal. Do you have coke products? slkjpepsialksf....? ok! i'll take a pepsi! Ashely pulls her car up and the guy then asks us all the questions over again....haha...then Ashely gives him my money and he gives the change back. I thought I had given him a 20...and I only got 6 dollars back. So I made Ashely tell him that he gave me the wrong change....only he didn't cause I had given my two 20's to Travis earlier that day.....So many bad things happening when we can barely communicate with the guy that works there...it was quite the trip.

I can't remember what else I was going to write.........cause that doesn't ever happen....ehhhh oh well.

borrrred

i don't even remember if i already talked about painting my grandmas ceiling but i'll go ahead and give you a recap anyways i have. pretty much it was really hard. there you go.

i returned my book at the library after it being over a week late cause i left it in hooper last week. its a pretty good book. but they all end in the middle of the story. and the third one just came out. and i just read the end......cause i like to do that. and it is going to end the same way. so i shall i ever know what is going to happen. i dunno. i can't even decide if i like them or not? i'll keep reading anyways. better than the host....in some ways.

so i'm liking my summer tan so far. i think its looking pretty good. hahahahahahahah wow i really have nothing to talk about if i am talking about my TAN. hmm....anything interesting.

travis played in a football tournament on sat. (they won) (cause there the best) but he got this huge slice in his leg from some kids football shoe (are the cleats?) so that was cool. my blisters are making a slow but steady recovery these days.

i love the chris brown music video, forever. i just love the dancing. i watch it way to much. the song is good to. but i just love the dancing. i still need to see about doing that this school year....the dancing thing.

i was going to post a picture to make this place a little less boring but i didn't like any of them. so i'll just post them on facebook. kk.

just because everythings changing

I have decided what my new hobbies are for the summer. Painting and getting blisters on me poor feet. i went hiking on monday and got some pretty big blisters on the back of my feet. And last night I went on a walk with my dogs and the parentals. And when i come home i never bring anything but flip flops. So i decided to wear my moms crocs....not really sure why i decided to do this cause it would have been about the same wearing my flops. but i have bigger feet than my mom and...yeah i got two huge blisters on the tops of my feet. so yeah. no i pretty much have to walk around barefoot.

Painting. My grandma got this crazy idea somewhere...(i will kill you electrician man) that she needed to paint the ceiling in her garage. She was just going to mix up like...8 different colors of paint together to create one lovely colors. Then my MOM gave her the idea that one coat wouldn't cover up the plaster stuff....so we had to do a coat of primer too. It was pretty awful. The cieling(I am not on mozilla and therefore have no spellcheck. and therefore can't spell) was to high to really paint comfortably. and all i had was either the paint roller or a 3 or 4 feetish stick to attach it to. And it didn't matter if i stood on something or just did it...it just wasn't good. So that took all day and i'm dying. i don't ever want to paint anything again. but wait! my family is painting the our basement and i get to help with that too!!! not. i was supposed to help these days that i was home but...this is super boring. i don't really know why i am explaining the boringness of my painting life. oh well. but i think my house is going to look cool. were getting wood floors (which i just spelled flores) and new furniture and such. and i think its exciting.

still no job.

um.....well i really like the song No Air by Jordin Sparks. ....why am i liking such awful music these days. oh i know....cause i live with people that like awful music. that sounds kind of harsh. Sorry. hahahahahahahahaha i guess not all of it is awful.

oh the paint!!! well we mixed all the colors together and since she had a ton of peach and a really light gray it was just kind of tannish color. kind of like chocolate milk. (i associate all shades of tan with chocolate milk i think) that was fun, dumping them all together and mixing them up.

There was still something i wanted to say and i keep forgetting. Like i keep forgetting peoples names these days.

parking meters.

I went hiking yesterday. It was fun. I haven't been hiking in....oh around years or so. But it was fun, minus the humongous blister that i got on my foot. My back heal hurts alot, even where the blister isn't. (back heal? do i have a front heal somewhere?) If i had taken my camera i would totally put some pictures up but i forgot it you see.

Yesterday we all went swimming. i got bored pretty fast myself.

I have been taking these weird test things for the past month. There computer tests that everyone has to take to graduate and they are lame-o. But i passed them all the first time except the spreadsheets one....which made me very angry cause it was kinda stupid ya know? But i went and retook it today and passed!!! yayayaya and we got a parking spot in the shade even. so i am all done with those stupid things. I applied for a job at the library today. Which is kind of a last resort. i just need a job please. um....its really hot outside. and i need milk.

i went to costa vida for lunch today. it was quite delicious. i love all those places. bajios will always be my favorite though. I do wish they had one in logan.

my grandma wants me to paint the ceiling in her garage. she is going to mix up all the paint from the walls that we have been doing. so pretty much her ceiling is going to be the color of puke. but thats cool.

to bear lake

Yesterday I traveled to Bear Lake with some ole' friends of mine. Because of strange numbers it ended up being me and Tera in her car. She didn't have air conditioning. So we got to ride with the windows down. Well she does have ac but...I guess if you want to listen to the radio you can't do them at the same time cause her car will turn off.....something like that. But we chose the radio over the ac. So we had a good drive until we were driving along and I heard this little thud hit the car. I look down at the arm rest and there is a very large bumblebee sitting there. I of course start screaming THERE'S A BEE THERE'S A BEE!!! over and over again to let Tera know that there was in fact a bee in the car.

After that the bee, whom I think was confused and disoriented from his fall into the car flopped onto the seat. So I had to scoot up onto the middle seat (I was still screaming things about the bee this whole time) I got my water bottle and put it over the bee, cause I could never ever actually crush a bug with my bare hands. Then I, still screaming tell Tera that its ok cause I'm good I can just chill like this. She says no, and going around 50 miles an hour pulls over and slams on the breaks and jumps out of the car cause she can't be in the car with the bee either cause she would freak out and we would die if the bee got out. So I jump out of the car too and remove the water bottle, the bee is laying there squirming helplessly and I try to remove it with the water bottle. When that doesn't work I took my shoe off and gave it to Tera to try to get it out of the car. It somehow made its way out...not really sure where it went. So we finished our ride with much laughing and hysteria.

We arrived in Bear Lake and found our people cause we fell a little behind after the bee incident. We got the tents put up and then headed out to the beach. It was good weather and the water wasn't to bad. It was fun out there. After beaching it for awhile we went to Bear Lake Pizza for dinner. We got one pizza for 15 of us. Pretty cool eh? Its this massive pizza called The Big Ephraim of something. You really only needed one slice and you were full.

Then back to where we were camping. Oh yeah. I only had to go to the bathroom like 12 time during the whole trip. I really drink to much water you know.

There were fires and mallows and guitars and tents, and cool scenery. I do like camping. Then me, Ashely, and Tera headed to bed. The people that were still up thought it would be funny to start doing stuff to our tent. So I was slightly annoyed. I was still up cause it takes me a bit to fall asleep. Ashely and Tera had been asleep and when the woke up they had collapsed the tent on us. They were a little bit mad. There started swearing and threatening to kill or slap the boys around and such. I was kinda mad but I really couldn't stop giggling. So yeah. That was kinda of hilarious. Since we were all up then we took a half a mile bathroom trip at around 2 30 and came back and went to sleep without incident for the rest of the night.

Now what REALLY pissed me off was in the morning the ravens or crows, and whatever other annoying birds there were traipsing around our camp eating the cookies that had been left out. They were SOOOOO NOISY. If I had had a gun with me, I would have shot them. It was so awful, they would not go away and shut up. Then everyone got up and we cleaned up and went to the beach again.

.....lost my train of thought. Oh yeah...so the water was FREEZING. Cause it was only around 10 30. I only had my feet in for a minute and got sunburned on my shoulders and stuff and that was that beach trip. Then to LeBeaus for shakes and fries. Shouldn't have got the shake cause I really don't ever eat them and so I just waste my money. What I ate was good though. Then we left.

And now I'm really tired. I could use a nap sometime today please. I am sure there will pictures of our adventures somewhere on Facebook too.

its story time

I have been painting and removing carpet at my grandmas for the past two days. And I am completely exhausted. For some reason I didn't get to bed till almost 1 last night when I could have easily went to bed at 10 30. So because of this some....unfortunate things happened, or I think some would say widely hilarious. But back to the painting. My grandma seriously has so much energy. I don't really know where she gets it from. She works as hard or harder than I do. And she is a lot older than me. Its crazy. So the rooms are painted...tan, Butterfly Bush yellow, and Covered Wagon. Which is a darker tan/almost reddish color. I can't remember what the tan color was called but it kind of reminds on of chocolate milk which truly sounds delicious right now. I painted all the ceilings too. That is really hard. And removing carpet, and carpet staples and the tack strip crap is even harder I would have to say. So that journey is over, I did get good lunch and quite the pay check out of the deal and quality time with the grandma so it was all well worth it. And at times even fun.

Ok, story time. So I was dead tired and haven't had any energy or brain focus since like 3 56 yesterday while I was still at my grandmas. (ps, i mowed her lawn too. i love mowing the lawn, and i haven't got to mow one in ages.) so i finally got home around...i don't know when. I got to bathe then I left to come back up to Logan around 9 30ish. I arrived in Logan around 10 30ish. Everyone was over at my apt watching the Sandlot. Which is a really good show. Really quite funny.

So we were watching that and talking sometimes. For some reason I decided to quote the girl from Transformers. She was on the MTV awards on tv today, and during one of my brief rests I saw her. Transformers won the best movie award or whatever its called. And she said that the next Transformers movie was going to be....well really good. SO. My point in quoting her was going to be that saying the F word on tv is dumb and it bothered me. So I go to quote her....she said. Yeah! and the next Transformers moving is going to be f-ing bad A. Only some how I managed to say the ENTIRE F WORD. I was so shocked. It took me and everyone else about 5 seconds of silence to figure out what I said. And I still wasn't really sure if I had said it or not. I was so mortified. Everyone was laughing hysterically. They all couldn't believe that I had said the F word but not the A word. I just can't believe i acutally said the whole thing. I totally and completely blame my kids at school. I used to hear that word on a casual basis way to often. Ahhhhh. I really still can't believe i said it. i am so embarrassed. And i know that i will NEVER, EVER live it down either. I have to be done with this now cause i don't like talking about it. oh gosh. i can't believe i said that.

summer suede.

My grandma wanted me to help her paint her house. 3 bedrooms. tan, yellow, and darker tan. I accepted the offer because i was going to get paid for helping. Painting is hard. I didn't think it was that difficult. but it is. And so is moving furniture and ripping out carpet. Which i had not signed up to do. But thats ok. It was still fun. I got dinner and lunch out of it. And i am sure i'll get more food next week when i go back to help her. it really is quite the task though. if i had pictures i would post them but they would be boring. We have only one room finished. The lighter tan. i didn't get to even start the yellow. I am mostly excited to do the darker tan though cause it will be the most drastic change on the walls. i am sorry you had to read all this boring stuff about painting but it made me really tired.

i have a job interview today. everyone please keep your fingers crossed cause i need a job very badly. not just for the money either, i am getting very very bored sitting at home all day, when i'm not painting at least. i don't think any of this is really making an sense but oh well.

i am getting my haircut today. so that is super exciting. i love getting my hair cut. its like having new hair....ok i really am done now.

how about

ta da!! I have a phone again! My old phone...but still, a phone.... Not that I really cared. Cause i don't really ever use my phones anyways. But still its the security. I don't think my other phone will ever be brought back to life from its journeys down the toilet.

I went rock climbing the other day.






















ok so...it really wasn't much of a climb...maybe...i don't even know. It was pretty tall though. And i was scared out of my mind the entire time and still felt like i was going to cry when i was back on the ground. But it was waaay super fun and i hope i get to try it again. Maybe i wont feel so emotional next time.

i really enjoy peanut butter. My license plates came for my car. They look cool cause their shiny and new looking. And i would like to go wash my car cause its very dusty looking right now.

I am still searching for a job. ahhhhh. I have an interview for a Hallmark store on Friday. There were like 12 other people on the list for interviews, but I am sure they love me and be so impressed they will just send all the other people away....haha. I wish.

I am halfway through reading The Host and if you want my personal opinion I have been bored more than I have been interested in the book. So maybe the rest will be interesting....but it doesn't really look that way. I think she could have cut out a ton of stuff and it would be better.

Saren put all her pictures on my computer so she could put them on a cd. And i really love some of them so I am going to post one of them so you can all see it.













its really cool. The apples didn't fall off in the winter. She has a few more and I like them all really a lot.

murder or suicide?

Sooooo yesterday I was just having a normal day. I went to wal mart and read my books and other such activities. We were getting ready to go to a fire up the canyon and I lost my phone. So people started calling and I started looking around. Couldn't find the phone. It was no where to be found. So we went to the fire, it didn't really matter cause no one ever tries to get a hold of me and you don't get service in the canyon anyways. Soooooo we drive out of the canyon and Saren gets a text from Katie. Katie has found my phone. In the toilet. MY PHONE WAS IN THE TOILET. HOW DID MY PHONE GET IN THE TOILET. Marci even used the restroom and said there was nooo phone anywhere in the toilet bowl. But anyways my phone pretty much marinated in the toilet for 3 or so hours. Sooooo now I have to get a new phone. And I don't really feel like paying for one. But I have my old phone that I will be able to get on Sunday when I go home. So sorry you can't contact me until Sunday night cause all I have is a SIM card at the moment.

There were other events that I wanted to write about but I don't really care to write about them now.

Oh I will write about this cause I think it is soooooo very cool. (sooooo is the word of the day)

My dad went on a business trip to Washington DC this week. On the way home he flew in a plane. And he sat next to Mitt Romney for 4 hours. And he didn't even get an autograph or picture with him?!?! They talked a little at the beginning but not really after that. But I think that is soooo cool. And I think it is strange that he flew coach? You would think he would be a first classer. And he sat next to him on the shuttle thing in the airport too. So yeah my dad is now sorta famous. I need to eat breakfast now so I'm gonna go and write my other activities later.

it might be warm today

lets see...

today was the kickball game at work. teachers won!!!! 16 -12. We totally blew the 4th graders out of the water. Although I can't say I did much to help the teachers win. I got out on 2nd base the first time I kicked. Someone got out because of where I kicked the ball the second time and the 3rd time....I don't remember, I didn't make it around the bases though. But it was still fun. Teachers rule!!! It was soooo very windy though. I thought I was going to fall over.

Yesterday, being Tuesday was an okay day, dinner was awesome. I spent an hour at work forcing myself not to cry. Work was that awful. I can't even explain the awfullness and horribleness of some of the kids. I got a cool I heart Chicago cup/mug from the head refocus person. She went to Chicago for the weekend and it made me jealous.

Sunday...I was with the family.

Saturday I had to go see Indiana Jones the the second time. It was ok. Not really worth seeing twice in the movie theater. I would have much rather seen Prince Caspian. Which I would really really really like to go see like 3 weeks ago. Ok so...that was all a lie. I am really getting my days turned around cause I didn't work on monday. Movie was really on Monday. Saturday Daniel the Brother came up to sign a contract for his apt in the fall and then I drove home with him. We did...Saturday stuff. I can't remember cause I am all mixed up now cause I am writing this backwards.

I have read some books and I am loving it. I like the library. Cause its free. And I love free. And I love books. Free books are the best.

SHOES. i got shoes on monday. really. on monday for real. I was quite excited. I will show them to you now.

This is the first pair. I have worn them twice now. And they fit wonderfully. Usually there is some type of shoe glitch and they need to be broken in but there just great. They are a little brighter yellow than that though. I luv them. Then there is the green ones. They are also a little brighter than that maybe. They had black ones but not in my size but I am glad cause i love these ones better anyways. And now the pictures are just doing what they want so I'll just leave them where they are for your viewing enjoyment.

job please

This morning when i was driving to work my ipod wouldn't turn on. i wasn't to worried cause quite often i forget to push pause or turn it off and so later when i go to turn it on it doesn't do anything cause its so dead from being on for hours and hours.

soooooooo i come home two hours later...work was quite fun really. I got to type up one of the boys reports for them. but when i put the pod in the player thing it didn't do anything. even after a few minutes....nothing...and after 30 min...still nothing.

And just now i have plugged it into my computer....and still nothing. I am no very worried.

Oh yeah and did i tell about my bowling adventure the other day. The kids i work with earned a bowling party and i got to go with them!! I took pictures. I wish i could post them. Sorry, can't. But i got over 100!! that was with bumpers though...me and one of the boys had them....but no one else. he went and asked for them to be put on mine. i guess that means i'm not very good at bowling when a 5th grader has to request bumpers for me? hahaha. but yeah fun stuff. then we got ice cream which was also super good. then we went back to the school and had an insane terrible afternoon. but its ok. only FOUR more days left. oh wow. wierrrrrd. I just got feeling that i am not sure how i am feeling cause i won't be working with those boys next year.

ipod is still dead.

i joined the library!!! i really am not sure what i said in my post yesterday so i could just be repeating everything. i reserved lots of books though. so now i don't have to buy in cause A) i'm poor and dont have the money anyways and B) i have a hard time deciding what books to buy.

saren painted my fingernails black last night. and i am enjoying it. one of the boys asked if i was gothic today. which i knew would happen.

i just lost my train of thought and can't remember what i was going to say......i am going home for memorial day. i am thinking there will be picnicking of some sort going on. which is good.

ipod still off.

oh yeah. i think i am getting carpal tunnel these days. which really isn't the best. but i have already cut back on my guitar hero playing so hopefully that helps. and being attentive as the to the way i am typing.

it just beeped when i plugged the ipod in...which is more than it did the first time. i shall have to keep you updated on how herbie is doing.....i am worried its not going to be good. eek.

ta da!

I haven't written in forever. So here is the update.

I don't have a job yet. And school is over in 6 more days. I am starting to get stressed.

I like my new car. Only I got to drive it for a week and now I don't have it cause they are fixing up the scratches in it. So that it will be pretty and nice.

I really need a job.

I was up really late last night cause I went to Indiana Jones. It was....soso. It would have been good with out the strange sci - fi-ness it had in it....that is all I will say for the moment. But it was ok. I liked it.

i worked for over 6 hours today. I am never going to help my kids with reports. K not really. For some reason I enjoy it and would rather just do the whole thing for them. And I have to go to work from one hour tomwomw.

I read almost a book yesterday. And it will be finished today. And there is more to be read!! I guess if I can't find a job I really will have plenty more time to read.

UM EXCUSE ME?!?! Can someone please explain to me how David A. did not win American Idol?!?!?! I was not able to watch any of the shows this week, or ever really. I am highly disappointed. But in a way I think its ok. He was so young. I think sometimes they people who get second do just as well or better than they could have if they had actually won. I have been watching it on youtube and he kind of looks like he is going to burst into tears during the whole thing when they are talking to him and stuff.

Um....the girls above us are moving in? I can't think of anything else that is worth noting...I'm going...i don't know where i was going with that sentence.

I guess im going with saren up the canyon...maybe not. I don't know. My computer is going to die.

oh yeah!!! pictures of my car!!!

Well picture. I like it though.


















oh yeah!! I went slacklining the other day!! slacklining? can't spell. Basically its akin to tightrope walking if I were to explain it. It was super coolly fun though. I got up and balanced on my own for a couple of seconds to. Never managed to walk without any help though. But it was still super cool and i want to do it again! I'm telling you, you really all missed out. mmhmm.

NEW CAR...NEW CAR

I am sitting, well laying in my new bed in my new room right now. Let me just tell you. This bed is a ROCK. It's awful. I laid down last night and like 38 seconds later my back started hurting. It took me an hour to get to sleep last night and I kept waking up to roll over in the night. I hate my bed. Ok enough complaining....wait one more thing, not really a complaint though. We don't have a microwave??? What kind of apartments don't come with microwaves, how am I ever supposed to make my cream o'wheat????? huh???

ok. I BOUGHT A NEW CAR YESTERDAY. I am still in shock. Its red. So even more shocking. I bought a RED car yesterday. I liked the white one, but it did not have a gray inside. And I really love gray, and less miles. so yeah. not much to say about that, still in shock, will post pictures when I can take them.

I'm staying up in Logan for the summer and I moved all my stuff in yesterday. I like are apt. its really big and we all get our own room. My room is pretty small, but really only a little smaller than my room at home so I can't complain, other than my bed....We have an entire bathroom for only two people, and tons and tons of storage space for our many storage space items. We are going to be very spoiled this summer. Oh yeah. and i need to wake.

Right now its raining. And I think I could lay here in bed all day just listening to the rain. It really is the best sound ever. And I really like that its not dark but not light, just the its going to be a soggy wet rainy day type feel. And i really luv it.

My brother is still home, he hasn't tried to jump on a plane back to Mongolia, even though I know he would like to. He is slowly adjusting....I swear to you all the stories he tells us he is just making up. They could not even be real. He already has a job which makes me mad cause I need a job. But thats cool. I will find something.

I had some stuff to say but I need to go get ready for work...so I will chit chat with you lata

home sweet home

So i have moved out of my apartment and home for the weekend cause i can't move into my apartment for the summer till monday. also my brother came home today. so its a weekend with the family.

cleaning was super exciting. i said the words gross and disgusting at least 231 times over the past few days. i hope i remembered everything. i wrote a huge list of things that i knew i could possibly forget. no one called to tell me about the forgotten clothes in my closet so i am assuming i got it all.

i have currently set up shop in the garage. My clothes are even hanging up there. (who knew that i would ever actually live in the garage???hahhahahahahahahha) i wont be sleeping out there though. sad. i took four days off of work for all of these adventures so that has been nice too. also i have been thinking of changing my major...so i went and talked to the special ed advisor today. so yeah. now i get to decide what i am going to do with the rest of my life.

my brother came home today. 3 hours ago in fact. he is slightly crazy at the moment. due to the facts that he hasn't slept properly in 3 days and hasn't slept really at all in the past 36 hours. So he has been babbling away in english and mongolian since he got home. he came home with 3 other missionaries that had been in mongolia. right now him and the parentals are over at the church and he's getting released. its so wierd to have him home....he is a real person.....i just can't believe it. (yaaaaay my mom's birthday present finally is done!!! now she can get it on tuesday when we go to logan.) but yeah. brother. real. at home. strange. he asked if i had a boyfriend and when i said no i was instructed to go find one. this coming from the boy who has gone on a total of 4 dates in his whole life. still. rm. wierd.

food is the next item on the list. i would like some soon please.

I watched American Idol for the second time this year. And pretty much I am in love with David. I voted for him twice, and I might vote again. Hes amazing and just plain adorable. I didn't really like anyone else so I might have to keep watching you know. (i'm glad i don't live on a boat) Mariah Carey is kind of scary.

I have a very large paper due next week. Its going to be a very interesting week. Cause I seem to be having some problems focusing on anything for very long. Class is almost done soon. And m y brother comes homes soon. Oh wow. eek.

Has anyone seen the weather lately???? yeah thats all i have to say about that. my break is over now so i must get back to work.

spring break

Today has been a good day. I took my test, which only took 15 minutes. And then i was done with class. Then i didn't have to work. And i don't have to work tomwomw or the next day or at all this week. This makes me sooooo happy in sooooo many ways. Cause i can get caught up on my hw, and sleep, and not have to worry about anything or anything. so i'm not gonna worry about anything.

why why why the snow?!?!

It snowed today.

Its cold outside.

on the way to work today i was composing a list of things i wanted to write in here but now i have forgotten them all. so i guess i'll make up a new list.

1- i really like barbecue sauce and ranch. or ketchup and ranch. goes good with hot dogs.
2- math boy had an emotional breakdown today. i was kind of jealous.
3- i don't know how you read past blogs becki. they make me want to curl up into the fetal position and die.
4- i am glad no one is home right now so i can movie watch with subtitles.
5- i haven't even attempted to start my papers.
6- i went to ward choir last night. and actually participated.
7- saren. you don't read this. but i think your hilarious!!
8- i had costa vida on saturday! (bajios is still better)
9- i am excited for spring.
10- movie is to good. end list.

are learning about when sea turtles lay thier eggs?

i should be doing hw.....but i should always be doing hw? i need to write a whole page of something that i am sure is really dumb......i don't even know. me katie saren and ashley went to dance kickboxingness. it was awesome yo!!!!

sad news. i have to go to class tomwomw morning cause a girl from my other class was borrowing my book. and then i have to go into work early. which is also kind of sad cause i keep forgetting that i have to go in early. and i just got really sick of writing this so i'm done now.

hunger

um. today i didnt get to eat breakfast. i had a bottle of water. then i came home and ate cream o wheat. which i totally loooove. and a little piece of the g-ma's cake. then i went to work. and some of it was kinda funny. then i came home. and was on the computer for a very long time not eating. so i had some toast. and the toast has lasted 3 seconds in my stomach and i am still starving. and cherry tomatoes. those didn't last very long either. so that still leaves me very hungry and not wanting to make anything real.

break

so i have totally found my new show to watch. New Amsterdam. I downloaded the pilot off itunes. then i watched the other two episodes online. it has really good music in it too. there was a death cab song that was really good but i don't know which one it was. i think i might be hooked.

i went to park city on wednesday with my friends. what a fun break for spring huh? snow and wind and cold and rain and hail. yeah super fun.....no it was. we got pizza hut!!!! and sat in a nasty hot tub. sometimes with old men. yeeeeeeeah. (totally just found the song. guess what i will be listening to for the next 3 weeks!?!?) i so yeah. hot tubbing. and sleeping on uncomfortable feather pillows. which are just awful. Thursday we went to the outlets shopping. I actually bought some stuff. that i really like. the dumb lady in areopostale left the security tag on jamils shirt so we had to go and get it off on friday. then when i got home...she forgot to take mine off too. hahahahahahaha. now i get to go to the mall sometime and get it taken off.

the last 30 minutes or so of shopping were pretty much hilarious and my favorite part of the whole trip i think. i don't even remember exactly what was so funny but thong shopping was involved. we ate at some place on main street that was ridiculously expensive. and that experience was also pretty hilarious. the waiter (foreign like the lady at the store, and every other worker in park city) wasn't a very good and he probably heard us talking about his awfullness a few times. hahaha. but he got his tip anyways cause he added onto our checks.

then we drove home today in weird weather. It was snowing, then sunny, then raining, then snowing in the sun, the rain, and finally sun! then i came home and got on the computer and have been watching tv shows. oh yeah. my shoes came today!!!! i LUV them. even though they are a little to big. but thats ok. i love them anyways.

tigers and lions and bunnies, oh my!

My watch has the date on it. And since feb. is A LOT shorter than the other months it is now several days off. And since theres been the whole daylight things i have no idea what time it is or what day it is. i could totally be late for my flight to alaska right now. sigh.

it is easter this month. and my grandma is in a ceramics class. both of these things means the living room has like 12,000 bunnies living in it right now. life size bunnies, bunnies in cars waving, bunnies in baskets, miniature bunnies, you name it we got it. cause you can't offend your grandma by not putting out all the ceramics she so lovingly makes for you. there is also a few bears. that are holding tiny bunnies.

My brother is coming home in less than 2 months. i can say that i'm not excited but i guess that would be a lie. its just so insanely crazy cause he will become a real person so SOON. In a matter of weeks even. The last day of the semester. Its just to crazy to process. He thinks hes going to go to utah state so i get to find a place for him and me to live. And i really need to get on that too.

a break for spring

My computer is going to die soon.

I have been reading all day. And last night too. It was an ok book. Well...I'm still not sure how I feel. Cause I didn't have enough time to decide how was feeling while I was reading the book. I guess thats what I get for reading it to fast. It was kind of stupid? I don't know.

Its spring break. Which means I don't have school!!!!!! Or work!!!!!!!!!! I can do nothing!!!!!! (sort of)

I have just been tackled by my little brother. He is pretty hilarious if I do say so myself. He has decided that he is now King Travis. And is replacing Chuck Norris in the world. hahahahaaa. oh dear.

My mom just made me make dinner. Wheat Thins commercials are really good. Am I the only one that didn't know it was daylight savings on sunday????

(save the cheerleader. save the world)

soooo the apartment has been been watching heroes lately. i am not addicted to it yet but i defineltiey could be soon. i am not doing any homework today. and this makes me very happy. and i am not going to class tomwowm. this also makes me very happy.

the little girl i help read to hates me. she really doesn't like me. today she was pretending to clean the desk. then i ripped the sponge thing in half trying to get it from her. then she wouldn't get off the floor. then she climbed underneath the desk. it was super fun. but then later she liked me cause i gave her pretzels. but its annoying.

i am hungry. i think i will make some ramen right now.

oh yeah. this heroes stuff is good.

Just so you all know my brother is going to be home on May 2nd at 3:56 pm. Just so you know that is SOON.

i took a test today. then i sat in the library doing some english. I really like the library i don't know why i don't go there more. Its just so peaceful. Except i was feeling really antsy cause i was wanting to get up and dance like a crazy person, which one day i hope to do. So it was kind of hard to concentrate. I got to use my ipod turbo charger! pretty cool stuff. and now the computer is going to die so i can't finish this.

I decided today in the car that my friends dont have enough anger in their life and so i have to express it for them through my english grade. That really doesn't make any sense but i was really pissed about my stupid english paper. it was good. real good. and i dont like the score i got.

JC Chavez or whatever his name is from nysnc thinks he is really cool. He is a judge on americas best dance crew. and he think he knows everything. but he doesn't.

there is a song called chicken noodle soup. hahahaha

please don't get me sick

I would just like to let you all know that I love Urban Outfitters. I wish I lived next door to one and had lots of money. I love shoes too.

Last night I went to this dance aerobic class thinger with some of the roommates. It was way fun. I haven't done anything like that in awhile. And now my body hurts.

So I wrote my brother and told him the Wheel author died. It was really funny. He kind of freaked out a little. Going on about whether he left notes or part of the book so the new author would know what to write and how if we all prayed maybe he could tell someone. yeah...i thought it was funny.

i'm gonna make a list now.

1- its friday. and i like that.
2- i really need to write some essay today.
3- i really love my slippers. but there getting worn out.
4- i ate really good cereal this morning.
5- i have to go home tomwomw. which means i have to wake up at a reasonable hour.
6- something is wrong with my phone. it just dies a lot.
7- someone just walked in the door. its....ashley
8- she has a sinus infection. shes not feeling well
9- i need lunch
10- i got my pants back!!!!!!! yaaaaaaay!!!!!!
end list.

tomroowmw is wensbay

I got to see the breakfast club this weekend on tv. it was really good. not what i thought it was going to be like but i still loved it. um. i read a whole book this weekend too. it was kind of stupid this time around.

today is tuesday. but we had to go to monday classes. i don't think this makes any sense at all since there were plenty of mondays and fridays that we missed last semester and we never made those up. dumb. but i guess i'm not complaining cause that means i don't have to go to my two hard classes for a whole week.

oh yeah. the really exciting thing that happened. i took all my laundry home this weekend. there were at least 4 loads. and i bought a new laundry hamper! the old one was going to split the next time i was trucking all my clean clothes up the stairs. so my clothes were all over from not having anything to put them in. so i was loading all my clothes into the new one. it was great. then i drive back to school. which jeans on. when i get to school i start piling all my clothes on my bed and i think....uh oh...i don't have any pants.....i left them at home hanging up in my closet. hahaha. i think its hilarious. but maybe not when i don't have any pants left to wear. cause the ones i do have are disintegrating into nothingness they are so old. so it might be comfy pj week. good thing i have to go home on saturday. to get the car inspected, cut my hairs, and pick up my new pants, and my old pants. i will never do that again.

the mix i made for my ipod is terrible. don't listen to it.

sad day.

My binder was kind of just sitting on my computer just now. And somehow got wedged or something under one of the keys, and it just popped off and flew across the room. Now i don't know where it is. Or even what key it was. It's between the scroll and insert buttons. sad day.

LIVE BAND!!!!

Oh. My. Gosh. me, katie and others have just attended the valentines stake dance. i have only just recovered from the urge to commit suicide. it was that bad. there was a live band. i swear to you they played the same song the entire song. only sometimes this lady was singing. i'm pretty sure the words were the same the entire time. there are just no words to describe. DANCE CARDS. they had dance cards. no joke. and we had to stay till the very end cause someone asked katie for dance number 10. for the last hour at least we sat in the chairs against the wall and tried not to cry. and lots of hysterical laughing. and i sort of learned how to waltz. one bright spot. the last 5 minutes of the dance were pretty hilarious also. two bright spots. and we stole the table decorations. bright spot number three. only they were more like dim flashlights about to go die in a pitch black cave. when we came home we had a mini dance party in my room. to help bring us back to life. it was really fun and you all missed out. now i am sitting on my bed writing about this experience so that i will be able to remember it always and forever.

I hate using other computers other than mine cause I can never remember any of my user names or passwords. They are all really close but just a little bit different and i have to sit and type all of the different ones before I get the right one.

This weekend was pretty interesting. I went on a date. And to mardi gra. And sunday was quite full of activities to. (internet explorer is not telling me when stuff is spelled right. i don't like it)

I had something i really wanted to rant about but i can't remember what it is anymore. I should really be working on my essay right now but i just don't think bring myself to do it. knowing that its not a total piece of cray was a good confidence boost though. (thanks dumb writing center people.......

naptime!

Remember when i used to hate naps. yeah. now i love them. they are just so lovely. and since i have no homework and no work!!!!!!! or tomwomw. i got to take a nap.

now at first it wasn't the greatest nap. i was having a hard time falling asleep. about an hour later i was going to to get up. so i laid back down for a sec and boom. i was out. it was so nice i even had a crazy dream.

i remember hearing somewhere that its not good to take naps cause it messes with the stages of sleep and it messes you up if you can't go through all of them or something. so in order for that to all work out you really need to sleep for like 4 hours.

random piece of maybe true information. but my 2 hour nap was just fine for me. now i can go back to not doing homework for the rest of the day and be happy.

blue men and birthdays

so let me just say. i wish i could tell you what happened at work today. it was crazy insane intense. i'll have to leave it at that, so you can trust me. it was crrazzy.

i went home friday so i could go to travis' last basketball game. strange days at rocky mt. jr. high. i am so glad i don't have to go to jr. high anymore. twas cool though, they totally blew them out of the water!!! yeeah. he even scored. then i saw 27 dresses. good show.

saturday was my birthday!!!!!!! the big 2-0! oh gosh i am so old. who turns 20 these days? i got everything i asked for and more!!!!! 4 books!!!!!!! all 4 that i asked for. it was awesome. and perfume and a printer. which i did not ask for but i'm not going to complain. and cake!!! love cake. i always compare all my birthdays to my 16th birthday which was the most absolute awful birthday i have ever had. so in comparison it was wicked sweet. and to top off all those nice birthday gifts i got to go to blue man group with my fam.

blue man group was SO KEWL! now the seats were not the best but it was ok it still rocked. they were hilarious and blue. i now love PBC pipe. and sticks to swish through the air at incredibly high speeds. and it was funny. and it was just awesome i would totally go again. anytime.

sunday was the next day in the weekend. church was interesting as usual. in sunday school we were talking about ch. 16 in 1st nephi and one of the girls in my class declared, "moses is hott." which two t's even. then i got dinner. i love when my mom cooks good food. and more cake!! yahoo!! then i was forced to drive back to logan in the BLIZZARD. in the middle part of the canyon i was just driving where ever i felt the need. and i like 4 wheel drive. so i made it back safely.

then there was super bowl watching. it was really hard to pretend to care what happened. i kept having to ask really stupid questions about the teams. and even at the end, which was intense. i really didn't care. but go giants...or patriots?? i don't even remember who won. they were both close. so they must have tied.

no i should be going to do my english. or not.
