Date

We are getting married on JULY 1st!!

(One week after I get back from ChiNA!! )
*heart*

Story Time

I am so excited to Marry my Love!! <3 Sam is AMAZING <3 My best friend and I love him. <3


So here is the engagement story:

We ate and played games at my parents house on Christmas Eve. Before I left, my mom told me I had to be back by 12 because I was spending the night there and they wanted to have time to set everything out for us for Christmas. Sam and I went to Sam's house and frosted cookies. After his parents went to bed, we sat on the couch and watched the lights on his tree. When it was about 10 mins or less from midnight, I told him I better get home. He started driving up his road but turned the wrong way. I was confused and a little anxious by then.

"Where are you going?" I asked him.



"We are going to look at some Christmas lights."

I figured we would have to be quick but we could make it to a few nice places and then get me home just in time. When we got to the end of town, he started going the right way again. I was feeling relieved when suddenly he turned around again. He started heading out on the Highway. He said, "We have to see the best Christmas lights!" (I thought he meant some really cool place he had seen that was really crazy lit up or something.) We turned on the road leadin to the temple and when I saw the temple, I understood what he meant.

I thought, 'Well, if we go right past the temple and just look, I will BARELY get home on time.' Instead, he was pulling right up to it! Ah! What was I going to do? My mom was going to be very angry. I was almost to the point of freaking out when he said, of course, the perfectly adorable thing. "I feel bad because I am just being selfish. I just want to be the first one with you on Christmas. *HEART MELT!?*

Well....for me it was. So I decided right then that I could splurg a few minutes and deal with the consequences later. It was a few minutes into Christmas day (a little after midnight).

He said quietly, "Santa came a little early this year." My heart started pounding and I just stared at him. "Whhat?" I asked. (I thought he might propose right there but when he pulled out a gray plastic bag, I could see that it was something different.) Before I could place my finger on what it was exactly, he told me we had to get out first because it was for the cold. Then I knew, it had to be a scarf. (Avid collector...or something like that ; )



We got out and looked at the statues for about a minute before he turned to me. Half handing me the present and half helping me open it, he asked if he could put it around me. I said yeah and he held the end part of one end and wrapped it around my neck twice, gently. Then Sam said that there was a little more and flipped up one of the strings on the scarf and the ring was tied to it. ^_^ He got down on his knee and proposed. = ) At this point, I started to cry. haha, what a baby I am sometimes. = ) But I was happy. He said some really great things too. He told me he wanted to come back (to the temple) and be sealed to me for eternity. <3 I Love Him. <3

I said, "YES!" and then we hugged for several minutes after. I was making excited noises and jumping up and down. He pretty much had to carry me back to the car because I didn't want to leave. He was persistant that he had to get me back before my mom got too mad. The ride home was blissful.

Then when I walked into the house, I could hear my mom yelling at someone. I knew she was not in a good mood. I walked into the living room where my sister, Kaisha, was. She told me mom was not happy. I waited until my mom came in there and she said only barely joking, "You know you are getting coal in your stocking, right?"

I threw my hand up next to my face and pointed with the other hand saying, "Thhhhhat's alright." I awkwardly hugged my sister (because at that moment neither one of them really had time to react. I told them the story. My mom said, "I would be more happy for you if you weren't late...." But this time she was MOSTLY kidding. = ) It's hard to change your mood that quickly when you want to be mad...you know?

It was lovely. I had the best Christmas with him.

Blank Slate

I have this really nice white board in my room and the trouble I think at this moment is that it isn't in a very accessible place to write on. I can see it but it is not in a place that draws attention to itself for me to see.


Now what is on this board? Goals. Plans. Quotes. A picture of Madason. A Place To Start Over Again and Keep Moving Forward.

In the four corners it has different lists.

1-'Now-Future' This has things that I can do now and should do now that I will keep doing in the future and for my future. If I am not doing them now, I should at least be ready when the time is right. Right now it has written:

Sewing (because I have lots of things I can do little sewing things with)

BoM-fall (try to finish the Book of Mormon by the end of fall...which as you can tell since it is still there, I haven't quite gotten there but I am getting closer to finishing it and hoping to start again.)

P.M.G-Bring to bed (still haven't brought 'Preach my Gospel' to bed yet. I would really like to go through that and start learning more.

T. Cards (Thank you cards for people that have helped me with China)

Things to take-ILP (to China)

Save $

Better Food (eating better food)

2-Can-Wants

This corner is for things that I can do and want to do or work towards. (All corners are pretty connected)

Written here is:

Goals (make goals and keep them, write them)

Try Foods

Laptop-Fixed-mini (This Toshiba laptop is pretty crappy and I need a smaller one for China)

Camera (need to make sure I take a camera to China)

Save $

3-Always-Everyday

Things I always am working on and need to do everyday.

Written here is:

Clean Room

Laundry

Tithing

Earlier to bed

Dishes

Gas

Journal

Calling

Serve

Exercise

4-Today (mind you, I haven't changed this in a while....)

Start and Plan Exercise

Blog or journal about men

Ask about scriptures (I don't even remember which ones and if I wrote it down)



I don't have any real quotes on there right now but Sam wrote on the top in the middle section, "I Love You Sooo Much <3 " and right beside that I wrote in all caps, "GRATITUDE".



I like my board to be organized and I can write down thoughts, goals, and keep myself motivated. I would recommend this to anyone!

Inspired

I love when people post things on their blogs because it makes me want to blog as well. = D

I am surprised that it is almost Thanksgiving. The count down to China is about...10 weeks. <---10! weeks. that is it.
In that time I will have:
Went to California for -Thanksgiving and -My Grandma's wedding.
Have a super great Christmas (I have some really great presents that I just cannot wait to give!!! )
Go to Utah in January for China program training and probably super great quality time with me Madre!!! <3 Whom I love.
Pack
Buy a new Laptop
Work my buns off! (at least work as much as possible....)
Keep having a wonderful time with LiFe!

I wish I had more inspiring things to say rather than lists . . . but I have grown to enjoy my lists. . . .

Today something beautiful and interesting has happened. Lisa and Dammon had their first baby today. He is 2 months premature- 3 lbs 13 oz. As far as I have heard, everyone is fine but a premature baby usually has a lot more risks and need a lot more time to develop properly. It is very exciting though and we all love them very much!! <3

Please keep them in your prayers! <3

Some side notes:
Sam and I dressed up as Bonnie And Clyde for Halloween.

I have a super awesome boyfriend. <3

And super adorable family!

Checkin my List

China is coming fast! The one thing that I did not see coming, was the change in departure dates. I guess I will be leaving early February rather than January. : / It has some good advantages and some not so great. I will be here for my nephew's arrival! I can keep earning money for an extra month....

I really need to keep up with this though. Call them and find out what kind of things I can buy there- rather than take with me, finish papers and call for overview of them before I send them off, and figure out approximately when I will be returning from China. Those would be good things to do.

Sam is still a super amazing great Boyfriend. <3

My family is still super awesome beyond all reason.... <3

I am still working at Trapper's Cafe....and looking for a seasonal or temporary job for me until Feb. ....

Yes, I am still a work in progress. ^_^

BABe-ee

Dammon and Lisa found out that they are having a BOY. = D


For some reason I felt like they were going to have a boy.
I am a little sad that I wont actually be here when he is born in
January but I will love to come back and meet my new nephew!! <3

Life is good.

Weeks Go By

Sam has met most of my family, now. He has not met Dammon and Lisa yet. I was surprised at how many of my relatives were at my grandparent's house last night! There were so many little kids that I could hardly keep track. I did a horrible job at remembering their names...I do have very cute cousins though. = )

I finally got all of the money for the program to China. I just need spending money and other essential items to take with me. = )

Here is a sample of some family pictures:




I love all of these people!! <3 Such good times!

The Hopes and Dreams of a Girl's Heart

I am going to start doing photography and photoshoots to earn a little bit of money and so I can do what I really love to do. Recently I was with my boyfriend and his nephew, Maxx  -- Maxx is super adorable! <3 -- and I took pictures of our adventures. That was a Great day!! We had a blast! Maxx was taking pictures on my phone and I was taking pictures of him. = ) It was so fun! Hopefully I can find a few people who would like me to do some photos for them. ( = Family pictures, Senior pictures, Just a group of friends, Couples, Engagement pictures, whatever it may be....

That Boy I Adore and So Much More

If you haven't heard, Sam and I are back together. This time seems a lot different but in a really good way. I am very happy! = )
He left today after sacrament to go to a family reunion in Utah...I miss him already. = ) Just six days....just six. I can't imagine how it will be when I go to China! I don't even want to think about it! hahaha so moving on-

I am going to be in a Joseph Smith play called 'What Power Shall Stay the Heavens' at the Snowflake Social Hall. Performances are July 21st - 25th. Times are 6:00 & 8:00 each night except July 24th - Pioneer Day. The times that day are at 2:00 & 4:00 p.m. Admission is FREE. I am playing Lucy Mack Smith. It will be a neat little play and hopefully it goes well.

I should be getting assigned to a town in China very soon. I sent all of my stuff in and they said I can be assigned now. I will have to find a way to get to Utah when they have trainings but I haven't even figured out dates yet. I am still sooooo thankful for people who are supporting me in any way. Financially, spiritually, or just with my choices.

<--memorial day.

I love my family and I go over to my parents house often, even with my boyfriend. We have fun, mostly being entertained by my little sister or me madre. = ) I am about to go over there to play games but this has been a really good update and I hope everything is well with all!! <3

Summer < 3

It is turning out to be a great summer! I am getting things done! Playing hard! And Enjoying some of the great moments.

The last few days, I went to Utah with My dad, Henry, Nathan (my awesome brother-in-law), the Hanlons, Brian Gardner and his two boys. We had a great time hiking 'the subway'. We had to climb rocks, repel, and even swim in some FREEZING water. It was a really cool place though and lots of fun!

The twins are 9 lb, 4 oz. They are getting big! Cute babies. Madason is still a little cutie with an even bigger attitude! I love it. She is very smart for a two year old.

I am getting ready for China in January but I really need to work harder and find a way to receive more money for this great opportunity. I am soooo grateful for the people that have donated even a little bit. It means a lot a lot to me! I could not do it without them and those kids over there would not have me to teach them! They deserve someone who is willing to give up what they have to be there for them. I hope everything works out and goes well.

Now I have got to get back to 'work'. Whatever that entails....

One Giant Leap

Today, I graduate.
A strange and unfamiliar feeling.
Practice was hot and took a long time.
I am excited and yet scared.
Kinda wish I did not have to grow up quite so quickly.

Good Morning, This is Your Wake Up Call.



I love My new Nephews, Tyson and Quinton. <3 Tiny Little Cute Boys.

Graduation!?!?

Yes, as you can guess, it is coming up super quick!
I can hardly believe it. Lots of people were in their caps and gowns today at Baccalaureate but it did not seem real. It felt a little like a themed party or we were all playing dress up....
I thought when I got to this point I would feel smarter or more accomplished or more adult like...

There is a little bit of all that but not like I thought it would be.
Maybe it just has not hit yet?
I know the whole graduation thing has not but I am waiting for that. I am trying to put it off otherwise I will cry like a little baby for hours. : )

YAY.
I AM FINALLY GRADUATING!
ME.
YAY.

Daily Learnings

There are many things you can learn in one day! These are just a few I learned this nice sunny Tuesday:

Numero Uno- Everyone should donate to the
 'i don't give a crap that emily is dying from SKIN CANCER -buy me a car FUND'.

Number Two- You should NOT procrastinate!

Number tHREE-Caps lock can be easily tapped if your pinky finger slips or has much of a nail at the end of it...

Number Four- Graduation Annoucements are quite the hassel. Especially when you are me. You are not me. Therefore it may not apply to you.

Number 5- Sometimes when you have GREAT ideas and you do not write them down in time, you tend to forget what you wanted to say...take for instance---now. I had some ideas that I wanted to write but now I do not remember. : /


Number ♠- I WAS FAT. (no i wasn't) But I want to be GRAWESOME {great and awesome} like a dinosaur!

Numba S3vEn- No drink will save you from STD's and your mom just doesn't love you...but maybe you can be grawesome too...remember to get your shots...or be smart and just don't go around having sex. I think that is school appropriate-it teaches abstinence.

# 8- I think I better stop writing now. = ) Have a Great Day everyone!!! < 3

The Break-up or Break-down

Some things....just do not work out. Heavenly Father works in mysterious ways.
He will have changed me for good. Samuel Musgrove is one of the best people I know!!
Always and Forever!
I know it was right and I am glad I did what I needed to do.

That Boy

This is the night my boyfriend, Sam, asked me to be his girlfriend. ^_^ I like Sam.
I like Sam liking his Bee Gees.
Samuel.
Yup.
Let's take it slow.

hmm....

I wish my first boyfriend could have met my Grandpa Walker. <3
He will have to settle for my zealous Grandmother.

A Twist of Words

Sometimes I wish the world would stop spinning.

The thoughts would stop rolling

The heart would stop beating

The music would stop playing

The talking would stop chattering


The wind would stop blowing

The hills would stop singing

The doors would stop knocking

The bells would stop ringing

The clock would stop ticking

The river would stop running



The eyes would stop tearing

The hand would stop writing

The feet would stop walking

The pupils would stop learning

The band would stop making

The children would stop laughing



The night would stop yearning

The day would stop burning

The car would stop racing

The breathing would stop hurting.

But then.....I wouldn't  exist.

*hehehe* Giggles *tehehehe*

= ) Skills BABE

Well....This trip aint so bad. Garrett Reed, Brenda Gilbert, and James Hanlon keep me very entertained. We have made some great inside jokes and laughed like Crazy!! It is soooo fun goofing off with them...even though they make me feel like I'm always running from trouble. = ) 

*inside joke-Principal playing 'get to know you' games with Brenda.* (creepy hand movements)

The End for Today.

That is a big leap! (the people part)

I just want to be Happy. ^_^

I am going to an Owl City concert Saturday! ♥ That will be SPLENdiD. awww....

If you love God, You know how I feel.

It is so amazing to remember there are other people who really DO! ♥

Little Toy Cars&The People Who Drive Them

Red cars have seemingly become something of a reminder of heartache....mistrust.
When I glimpse a red car, my heart sinks to the bottom of my chest and I feel myself take a sharp breath.
It does not make sense because the person does not even drive one, anymore. I know that. Still, it is a simple crude reminder.

When people compliment me, [as of lately], I just feel like everyone is being fake. Like maybe if they say that, I will like them more...or be more of their friend...or just because they want to seem perky so they find something to compliment about everyone. I feel like a downer but for some reason it just feels like that. I try to be sincere when I compliment people but I almost feel a fake face go on as soon as I start, even though that compliment was my exact thoughts.

I guess you can say, I've become an anti-people person. Which stinks because I really do not want that at all. After 7th grade homeschooling, I became much more social and went out of my way to talk to people but I have reverted or even gotten worse than before. It is not a shy thing, it is just a not liking people and especially new people that I do not know or really being scared at all to talk to them -which I'm sure is kinda shyness quality-. I judge harshly and get annoyed too easily. I feel like I am even letting myself down and not wanting to be around myself. I am really annoying.

Someone said that reading my blog was like reading a girl's journal. That is probably true, especially with these kind of posts.

What a lazy day for me...

Sunday, March 21, 2010

I think I will....

....Blame all my problems on bad PMS...or the weatherman...or possibly some long lost relative. = )

It has been a while and I have not really done many of the chain links lately. That is something I have been slacking on. My senior year is turning out differently than expected but it's not all bad.

I would really like to get a white board or possibly a chalk board for my room to keep myself organized. It helps to keep things written down and in plain sight. I love having my calendar on my phone because I can put reminders for everything and keep myself on-track. The only thing is that: I am still late to everything. I have a hard time because I very much dislike being early but I feel bad when I am late (for good reason). Even when I live about 2 or 3 blocks from the school, I cannot help but lax and end up being late anyway. That one I can also say- I dislike mornings so the longer I can sleep, the better hmm?

I love my room and living with my sister. It is starting, very slowly, to seem a little more like home instead of just staying with relatives. I felt my sister's babies in her tummy the other day. Such a strange feeling. . . There are really BABIES in there!! Freaks me out just a little but amazes me beyond all belief. Reminds me there there is still a Great God of wonders and miracles!!

With me, everything is a little different. After feeling the babies, I had a weirdo dream about my sister and her babies. I am such a strange child. Child because I sure do not feel like growing up. I thought I was... until I got closer and realized {I am scared and not very prepared}. I guess I will just have to have faith that everything will be taken care of!! <3

I love my FamILY. I love snacks. I love God.

---"In thee, O Lord, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in they righteousness." Psalms 31:1

*COUGH COUCH COUGH*

Here I sit on this old blue plaid couch. It doesn't match this room and I can't hardly imagine it matching much of anything. The little pink and sea green stripes that cannot be seen from three feet away also add to the old fashion along with the ruffled edges and skirt against that mid-dark brown wood. The couch is also too close to the ground. As if in its earlier days here at our house, it could have held up four teenage boys and a young lady. We ripped the legs right off when we all went to 'sit' on it. Apparently, nowhere in town sells the legs to replace the last, not that it matters much. It still sits in the living room with the exact matchy matchy love seat across the room. Not to mention the dark navy blue velvety mis-matched love seat with strange springs to sit on and the reclyner that surprisingly has about the same colors as the couch and loveseat pair except the blue is slightly off. It most certainly is not pleasing to the natural eye. Also, the fact that it is just stripped from top to bottom and there is no plaid strange pattern like the couchs, it is seemingly in it's own little world. Everything is oddly placed so that everything can fit into the room and we can still walk through. Each is placed so that at some angle or another the person sitting there can see the huge Sony TV.
     I have to admit, my dad and brother have given their love for Sony to me. If it is Sony, I happen to already have expectations and believe it is going to be good quality. I have watched a little too much of that TV and it's DVR *magic* these last few days. There is only so much a sick girl can do when she doesn't feel well enough to do much. I should probably mention at this moment also that there is a Christmas song playing from my computer...and I am liking it. "All My Bells Are Ringing" By Lenka. It does not sound exactly like a traditional Christmas song so I guess that is good.

    To be sick for more than two days is probably a horrible thing for someone with slight hypochondria. I do not think that is COMPLETELY my fault. When I was 8 or so, no one believed me when I broke my leg. My dad held me upside down and all. He is a Paramedic and he is my DAD....I guess they believed my pain enough to take me to the doctor or maybe they were trying to humor their child who would not get up and walk because she was complaining. . . who knows. Anyhow, they took me to the doc and sure enough, the x-ray is my proof. Somethings just are not that simple. I think when I got my chest x-ray because of my random spurts of breathing issues, they just told me I had Reactive Airway Disease (RAD) because they could not see any problem but they did not want to tell me I was wrong because who knows if I am having breathing problems or not unless they are me or they are there at the right time to test it? Oh silly me. Maybe I should also mention the time when my foot hurt soooo much and yet, NO ONE could find anything wrong with it. I wore a boot and had crutches for awhile but it never got better....that should show that I WAS in pain though. Why else would I go through that? Bleck, definitely not for attention. That is the worst kind of attention. *HUGEBOOTTHING ON YOUR LEG!!* Well, I decided to just let it go. Stop bothering everyone else with my foot problem and quit spending money on something that no one else can believe is there. I waited it out and it is amazing, my foot feels just fine now. My dad told me that he had bad knees a while ago and he just let it pass and now he is fine. I hope that means he does not think I am crazy. = )

Let's hope I get better real soon.

I May Seem a Little Confused but Really, I'm Doing Good. = )

I am sore from SkiinG yesterday. Even when I laugh, My stomach hurts. It must have been all of those wipe outs. = ) It was a lot of fun though. Kelcie Reed is my Angel! I was soooo scared to go to the top of the mountain but when I did, she stayed by my side and helped me out. Then when I went up again, she helped me again and we had a lot more fun going on Midway. ( = Such a patient and just an amazing girl. Seriously.


I am also sunburned. I tried to put some powder on to make it less noticeable but that just wasn't good enough. I went for a foundation but OH MY GOODNESS...it smells funny and it makes me nervous that
A. It will come off and I wont know.
B. It will smear strangely.
C. I will have that gross cake face.
D. It will come off and smear on everything else like my clothes.
E. It totally wont match the rest of my skin....
AND SO, it didn't really match...it looks more like I have a rediculous tan now. Tehehe.



Did I mention I am sore?

I feel a little lonely today...Not really sure why. I just hope that I really did the right thing. I feel like I am questioning God's plan but sometimes he does very strange things that take time to develop into something else. I am excited to find the right guy but I know I am definitely not ready.

Today feels like monday. That is not the best feeling and it confuses my brain to pieces.
.... but I'm good. =)

♪"I regarded the world as such a sad sight until I viewed it in black and white."♪ -Dear Vienna by Owl City- Isn't this adorable? It is such a photographer thing. The things he goes on to say compeletely remind me of taking photos. UGH. I have such a passion for wanting to be a photographer. I hope I can do well.  . . . .

A Little Behind, A Little Rewind

My resolution to volunteer in China is confirmed even more this week. I am very excited. I know God will provide a way. Otherwise, He would not keep encouraging me to go. I wonder what kinds of things await there...the reasons I am going...it will be amazing.


 I also am excited to live with my sister. I love her so much! I still cannot believe she is having twins...twin boys. It will be crazy being a nanny but I love the idea of helping my family and being able to be a part of my nephews' and neice's lives. Madason is the cutest baby ever. If I have babies as cute as her, I will be completely thrilled. = ) Not saying that if I have ugly babies that I will love them less. ( = tehehehe. I cannot believe Maddi can count to ten in Spanish because she watches Dora the Explorer. She loves Dora. haha, crazy little girl.

          The musical seems like it is coming together. I thought it wouldn't for some reason but the main people are doing really well.  It should be really good this year. I have to admit, I like when we don't have practices...but I like that I have something planned instead of sitting at home wondering what I should do and wasting time on facebook... *cough* which I do anyway.
I just need to get a little more organized with my time and thoughts. I think if I write in my journal more, I will have less of a 'need' to do so much with facebook and myspace. Also, if I work on my conversational skills and talk to my friends/family more, it will help. There are a lot of things I could be doing and maybe if I start making a list again then I can see that wasting my time is...well, wasting away.

I REALLY need to get my laptop fixed. It is really annoying to have to type in notebook and then transfer it from either email or flash drive to the kids computer. Also, if I move out, it will be even more useful to actually have a computer that doesn't freeze up on me and has Microsoft Office. I wish Dammon would have taken care of that before he left...bleh. I know I shouldn't complain, I have a laptop but seriously, I'm a little teenage girl that doesn't know anything about warranties and sending a computer back to get fixed...just sayin. Anyway....Someday I will do that. I should put that on my list. = )

It's been a while since I have written about the chain but I don't really want to go back and try to remember all the days. = P Today was write a poem day and that I did. It is typed up on facebook. (aww...this was also the day Chewy went to sacrament with me <3 I love that girl and miss her. : ( oh well....) Friday was curl your hair day...and also my date with Sam Musgrove.  We watched 'The Lovely Bones'. Amazing cinematography, well done, and creepy. =D haha. Not to mention my little freaked out moment when the producers name came up and Carolynne Cunningham (who I guess was a first assistant director for Lord of the Rings, King Kong [also producer], and some other ones). I was like -!!! @_@-
Yup. We had a good time though. It was an interesting movie and we talked before it started because we got there late for Sherlock Holmes but early for The Lovely Bones.

  
It has been a nice little time for blogging. Now that moment is over, dears. Enjoy Life ♥.

Off the Chain

Friday, I just never made it to write in someone else's journal, which was the 'chain link' for the day. Maybe I will have to make up for that someday.

Saturday was 'off the chain' day because apparently we did not have anything planned on that day. I went back to work the night before and then got to work this night too. It was a little different because I did both the dishwashing and bussing. It was a little difficult sometimes but I think over all it went rather smoothly. I went to Erika May Tenney's this night too. The Pink Bible version of Pride and Prejudice is Hilarious and I must praise the cinematography of it as well. I just liked it. The colors were vivid and everything seemed so pure. It was nice. Although, the acting was cheesy, I'm glad that was the point (in most cases).

Today is Yellow Day! I was late getting up and then running around trying to find something to wear. I knew I would wear yellow but I couldn't find just the perfect outfit. I had all of these random things with a little bit of yellow but most of them were different yellows and/or styles. I had a scarf, a bracelet, a few necklaces, an undershirt, an over shirt, a skirt, and a flower for my hair. I tried them all with different things and nothing was seeming to come together. I finally realized I was way late so I pulled on my over shirt (yellow and gray) and wore all white. I actually got a compliment on it. Imagine that! From Chris Larmouth. I have to admit, I like it much better with jeans than a white skirt though.

I am really glad I do not have to use correct grammar in my own Blog. ( =

Amen. tehehehe.

Dark and Sweaty?

Yesterday was Dark Eye-Make-up Day. : )
I do not really like wearing make-up and I feel really fake with it on. It feels like I am lying or I can't see myself. I tried to make it dark and for me, it was. There were only a few comments on that and I was surprised but I guess if your friend looked scary and like they wanted to kill people with their laser eyes, you wouldn't ask too many questions either. Haha.

Today was Sweats day!
I was excited for this day because I went all out and got my brother's sweats sweats (the geeky look sweats). The problem came when I went to find shoes. Socks looked fine. Barefeet looked fine. There just did not seem to be any shoes that went good with sweats that came in at my ankles....they all looked silly and misplaced. I put some on and just left. I felt like a dork all day...although I was rather comfortable... : ) I am really glad to be back in jeans!!! ♥

Digital Writing Tuesday

I asked James Hanlon, what day is it?
He said Tuesday and I said NO! It is Digital Writing Day!!

So, I wrote in digital all day when I was writing. It was really hard taking notes in English and History but I did it. I am not sure if I will be able to read it tomorrow but it was worth the CHALLENGE! : )

Admiring boys from afar and being happy about it is nice. ( : That however, can be a challenge too but after I sleep, I will be up for the challenge again tomorrow.

Let's do it.

Winterformal+Other Days=A Weekend

Friday and Saturday were suppose to be 'manicure' and 'pedicure' day. Neither one actually happened but two funny and almost ironic things happened for those.

Friday I fixed my cuticals a little bit and rubbed them up with lotion.
Saturday, I sprayed my feet, socks, shoes with minty foot spray and then powdered them too with foot powder. : )

So even though it did not happen quite the way it should have, I still did a little something with them : )

Friday- I went to play practice from 6 to 9 and danced a little...it was a little boring and then it was like she was squeezing everything out of us in the last 15 minutes. Then I went to Emily's and messed up my face with this insane makeup that would not dry. We did not sleep until almost one. I was tired.

Saturday- Was winterformal, Spent most of the morning washing cabinets. Watched '500 Days Of Summer'. I like the cinematography of that movie. The main actor/actress where beatiful and really good. I love the IKEA part, "The Sink isn't working." "It's ok. That's why we bought a house with two kitchens" "You are so smart." "I dont know how to tell you this dear but....there is a chinese family in are bathroom"
Then the boys came and we made breakfast foods. Chan Chan and I made eggs and Crepes. We had a ghost baby crepe.... : P Then we played Apples to Apples and ImagineIff, ate crepes, and made flower things. : ) We looked awesome for the dance!! Henry and Chandler wore shorts with long socks and Huge boots-everyone was jealous. Joseph wanted to be in the group so he at least put some shorts on too. ( : Emily, Diiny, Joseph, Hailey, and a ton of people danced like crazy and it was loads of fun! The only thing that I did not like is how short of a time we were there because I wanted to ask a few other people's dates to dance. Tehehehe. Oh well.

Today I went to singles ward by myself. It was slightly awkward but good talks and song in sacrament. It was nice when Chris Larmouth sat by me in Sunday school. I had the impression that I should leave for Relief Society. I still am not sure why or anything but I almost did not do it. I just decided to go with my first instincts and leave.

Tonight-I played 'Wa Hoo' with my grandpa. We played three times and he won 2 out of 3. : ) He was knocking my pieces out a ton on the last round. ( :
I think he enjoyed it.
It was pleasant. Strange that we played games with my dad's side of the family...and me with my grandpa. ♥

Enough of this craziness.....I must sleep, for tomorrow is school...and horrible Monday. I mean...A whole new wonderful Day!! : P
