{MY PRINCE}

2012-01-22T22:18:00.000-08:00

Us on our way to a friends birthday party

Okay, so I know that so many people (which not many of those people ever read this blog) want to know about my loving and wonderful boyfriend... So I thought I would do the natural thing and blog. Especially since I have been writing a paper all day, why not write some more.

This is David R. Prince Jr, I would tell you his middle name but then I would have to kill you because he does not like it. Born in Texas but moved to the huge city of Vernal, Utah at the age of 5. Still interested? Well, he moved to West Jordan in high school where he graduated (barely) from Copper Hills. He then served what he calls a "mini" mission in Houston, Texas, but sadly couldn't finish it because of health reasons. He is going to be 31 next month, works as an Strategic Account Manager at eBay, is a ECON student at the U, loves country (and all types of music), a total sucker for romance, loves taking me on dates, has given me flowers twice, and is the oldest of 4 children. Really guys, he is my Prince in the flesh and even has the last name to show for it. I am so lucky! We are going on 3 months of dating and I cannot wait to see where our life heads together...

Well since there is not much more I SHOULD blog about, even if there is more that I want to blog about, I will now go! I hope you enjoyed this short, but informative blog about my lovely boyfriend Dave.

Hello Everyone,

So I am going to make this short because as you can tell I have not been motivated to post AT ALL! However, I think all of you deserve to know what is going on...

1) I am still at the U-- 4 semesters left and ill be a teacher!
2) I have ran two races in the last 4 months, a 5K and 10K. I am making it my goal to do the SLC Half Marathon.
3) I have been to FL since I lasted posted and I will go again In February.

4) MOST IMPORTANTLY-- I FELL IN LOVE!
His Name is Dave Prince, from West Jordan, is 31, and works for eBay! He really is my other half and exactly what I have been looking for in a man. I really do not know how to explain it all just in words, but he makes me happier than I have ever been!

HERE HE IS!! Cute right?.. Even with his CHEEZER smile!

{Post for Preston}

2011-07-07T12:40:00.000-07:00

I would like to take the time to dedicate this post to my great friend and ex-boyfriend Preston J. Suter. He was killed on Tuesday July 5, 2011 in Afghanistan in a roadside bombing. He was a proud member of the Army and had the MOS of Military Police. Preston and I met back in sophomore year of high school and we instantly hit it off as friends. He laughed at all of my jokes and was just as smart alec as I was. He played basketball for Alta all three years and was such a huge basketball fan. He especially loved the Lakers (BOOO)! He was such a people person, always quick to introduce himself and make people feel comfortable. I am so proud of all that he has accomplished and I am truly sorry for all of the other people including family and friends as well as his wife whom have lost an amazing guy. He may be physically gone, but his spirit lives on with us here. All of us have a guardian angel now!

I thought in honor of the 22 years that he lived his life to the fullest I would list 22 memories about the Preston that I know and remember:

22. Preston loved to joke with people, he was constantly being a goof ball and just laughing.
21. Preston was stationed in Hoenfels, Germany.
20. As mentioned before, he was a huge Lakers fan. We would always get in a fight about who was better Jazz or Lakers... Half the time he won.
19. He loved La Frontera's Smothered Burrito with Cheese. We always loved making frequent visits there.
18. Our first date was the Mr. and Mrs. Smith movie at Jordan Commons. I remember thinking how good Preston smelled that day!
17. He went to Snow College for two semesters (about) and I remember visiting him and having a fun time with him and his roommates.
16. One time, on his birthday, we followed Derek Fischer around Fashion Place for 2 hours. He had this weird obsession with him. lol
15. One time we drove around for 2 hours just trying to find Sugarhouse Park to watch fireworks, needless to say we gave up and watched them at some other park in Sandy. (He wasn't that great at directions ;-))
14. I remember always looking forward to the days he got a pass at Basic Training, it was the best surprise to get a call when I was walking through wal mart or sitting in a class.
13. Most people called him P, but we decided to give each other nicknames, I was K-Sizzle and he was P-Dawg. But most of the time I called him PJ.
12. For my birthday one year he gave me the movie Chicago, which is also the movie that we watched one night hanging out, where we both admitted how much we loved it.
11. He bought an ipod when he was at Basic and had it sent to my house so that I could download all my music to it. In the end he ended up deleting all my music because he thought my music wasnt "cool enough".
10. He loved rap music, I remember getting into his old car plenty of times and having the music loud and the bass turned up.
9. We went to Summer Jam back in 2007, right after graduation, and instead of staying for the music we used as a complete people watching experience. We laughed about it for hours.
8. He sent me this hat when he was in basic:
7. Preston always talked about how excited he was to be a father, although it didn't happen and probably wasn't going to happen anytime soon, he would have been a great father. He loved kids a lot.
6. There were nights when he lived in Germany where we would skype until we both fell asleep (It usually worked out the best when he had worked a grave yard shift)
5. I remember when he came home in February and he had told me he was going to marry Nicole and he wanted me to meet her. I got so excited because I was happy that he had finally found someone that he could give all of his love to.
4. He loved the Army (most days), he talked about how he wanted to excel and move up in the army.
3. The day he became a specialist he was so happy, he earned it and deserved everything that he was given for it.
2. He was always good about making me smile, he knew when I was having a down day and could turn it around, but in a logical way. It was a great trait of his.
1. I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT I WILL MISS HIM MORE THAN ANYTHING. HE WAS AN AMAZING FRIEND AND I DO NOT KNOW WHAT I AM GOING TO DO WITHOUT TALKING TO HIM.

It is hard to think that I spoke to him last week and now it will never happen again. I will miss you PJ and the way you made me laugh. One day we will all join you up there.

My condolences go out to his wife Nicole, his dad Chris, and his mom Dixie. He loved you all so very much!

Love you P-Dawg!

Thank you Ross for providing these new hip-hop shoes for me at about 1/4 the price that Journey provides them!! I will be the newest stylish thug around town! ;-)

{I NEED A DR}

2011-07-05T11:45:00.000-07:00

AHH, after having troubles signing into blogger for about two weeks now, I am able to blog again! So lately in my class (Writing Methods 1) at the U we have talked SO much about different types of writing and different authors that really write creatively and I cannot help but think about the genius Dr. Suess.
This man right here has written 46 children's books. HOLY CRAP! 46... and his books are not exactly the shortest books ever! They are fun, exciting, and he has written them in a way to really hold the readers attention. He also is a very deep thinking and creative man.

My favorite quote by him, which I have posted in my room, is:

I hope that all of you have had the chance to get to know one or more of the doctor's books and if not, you are missing out and need to update that big time!!

My favorite Suessical book happens to be The Sneetches, with the stars upon thars. READ IT!!

{WOW ITS BEEN AWHILE}

2011-06-18T10:47:00.000-07:00

OKAY so obviously I have lagged greatly at 1) updating my blog and 2) keeping up with the Disney day challenge. So consider this my resignation to the game.

The last month of my life has been crazy...

I have ....

Gotten a second job at the most amazing place on the planet, TARGET!! I am enjoying it a lot...

Had a wonderful friend Pass away Click Here to see the obituary

Bo was such a wonderful friend and guy, he was charitable, and literally give the shirt off his back for people. He was the class president at Alta bot sophomore and junior year and then Senior year he was student body president. We are all at peace now knowing that he is in the arms of the lord now and no longer in pain. I will miss his phone calls checking up on me, or the UVU bus rides where he just listened to me ramble. He was so kind and I am so glad that we became friends sophomore year in World Civ and then kept in contact the last 4 years after school.

Miss you a lot BO

I also got to visit this wonderful place....

PORTLAND, OREGON

It was my first visit there and it was amazing. I got to see my best friend graduate, eat at Melting Pot, shop a ton, and do so much more!! EVERYONE NEEDS TO BE JEALOUS

{CALIFORNIA GIRL}

2011-05-18T10:02:00.000-07:00

{Day #6: Your favorite animal}

2011-05-18T09:57:00.001-07:00

{Day #6: Your favorite animal}

Okay so not just one animal, but two... BUT you cant just separate them! Timon and Pumba, the hilarious duo from The Lion King. I seriously cannot get over how funny this Meerkat and Warthog animate this film so much more than any of the other characters. They even have their own twist of The Lion King, it is called The Lion King 1 and a 1/2, which is a spin off of the Original movie. IT IS SO FUNNY!!

I LOVE TIMON AND PUMBA

{Day #5: Your favorite hero}

2011-05-17T10:15:00.000-07:00

MY FAVORITE DISNEY HERO

This man right here, Mr. Peter Pan, is my favorite hero. A child at heart, never afraid to stick up for his youth, and ready to fight hook anytime necessary. There were many times when he not only saved Wendy, but also Tink, the lost boys, and other mythical creatures like the mermaids from Mermaid Lagoon. Pan's story is amazing, even though I am not really a Tink fan, I really like him!!

{DAY #2: Your Favorite Princess}

2011-05-14T08:30:00.001-07:00

Day #2: Your favorite princess

I have two princesses that are my favorites!!

1- Princess Tiana, one of the newest of the princesses. She is from the hussling and bussling city of New Orleans and has total sass. She is a great princess and I love her movie and story.

2- Belle, a princess that came to the brim in 1991! Such an elegant princess, but also so kind! Her movie is amazing and the soundtrack is even better. I also LOVE LOVE LOVE The Beauty and the Beast Musical at Hollywood Studios in FL. I cannot wait until August when I get to go and see it.

I LOVE THEM SO MUCH

{PASS}

2011-05-04T09:05:00.000-07:00

In a regular semester this is me. I am the one that annoyingly emails a professor checking what my grade is and whether I passed the class or not. And I must say this semester was no different, except that I got an email stating that I PASSED MATH! I have taken this particular math class 3 times total and finally got the grade I needed to put on my transcript!! I guess what they say is right... 3rd time is a charm!

I continue to check my WebCt to see if it has changed or not and so far it hasn't. Cross your fingers that it doesn't within the next 3 days!

{THE END}

2011-05-02T09:57:00.000-07:00

Growing up all of us knew this phrase, "the end", it was a completion of a book, a fairy tale, tall tale, and our favorite adventure book in the case (mine just so happened to be box car children). Today is the beginning of my summer and end of Spring 2011 semester at the U. I am both relieved and shocked.
I am shocked because:
1) I am unsure at what my final grades are going to be
2) I have a pretty legit summer lines up including work, school, and VACATIONS
3) I am surprised at how quickly this semester has gone.
and 4) I have been home for almost 5 months from Disney. It breaks my heart that my program is slowly slipping away and reality has set in. I am still working for Disney and still receive perks, im just missing WDW so much.
I am excited for what this summer is about to bring and cannot wait to post on my adventures!

ON A SIDE NOTE:
I AM GOING TO DISNEYLAND IN 18 DAYS! I am stoked to spend about 4 days in Cali with all my wonderful friends!

Have a wonderful and sunshine-y day!!!

{Blog Spotlight}

2011-03-26T08:33:00.000-07:00

Okay, so I am sure all of you are wondering how my trip to Vegas went and maybe eventually I will tell you. But today, instead of posting on me I thought I would spotlight on one of my favorite blogs...

Amy's Dating Blog...

Amy is a girl I went to grade and high school with, she is a very funny and upbeat girl, and I do not remember one time that she was every rude to me.
This blog is pretty much a journal about her dating life in which everyone sees.
I very much enjoy clicking on her blog every couple days and seeing a very exciting story about her life in the big apple and how the opposite sex is treating her.
She is a wonderful writer and always does well on keeping my attention (which is hard with blogs).
I recommend everyone follow her and learn a thing or two on how to really date a guy and how a guy should act on a date. --No she doesn't really give advice but she is very good at helping you relate to her stories.

My favorite post so far...

Cars aren't just for boys

Thank you Amy for your very inspiring and thoughtful blog posts!

{Patty's Day}

2011-03-17T16:00:00.001-07:00

A little History on St. Patty's Day:

St. Patrick's Day is a religious Holiday celebrated internationally on 17 March. It is commemorates Saint Patrick, the most commonly recognized of the patron saints of Ireland, and the arrival of Christianity of Ireland, It is observed by the Catholic Church. attending parades, attending céilithe, wearing shamrocks, wearing green, drinking Irish beer, and drinking Irish whiskey are common practices!

DAYS LIKE ST. PATTY'S DAY... I WISH I WAS IRISH!

Another thing that my family celebrates on the 17th of March happens to be my lovely Step Mom's Birthday. I do not have any pictures of her, but she is a great lady. He name is Patricia and we call her Patty, which is a wonderful name for someone that is born on St. Partick's Day. We will be celebrating at a steak house tonight :-D

{NOT LIKE THE MOVIES}

2011-03-15T14:38:00.000-07:00

He put it on me, I put it on,
Like there was nothing wrong.
It didn't fit,
It wasn't right.
Wasn't just the size.
They say you know,
When you know.
I don't know.

I didn't feel
The fairytale feeling, no.
Am I a stupid girl
For even dreaming that I could.

If it's not like the movies,
Thats how it should be, yeah.
When he's the one,
I'll come undone,
And my world will stop spinning
And that's just the beginning, yeah.

Snow white said when I was young,
"One day my prince will come."
So I wait for that date.
They say its hard to meet your match,
Find my better half.
So we make perfect shapes.
If stars don't align,

If it doesn't stop time,
If you cant see the sign,
Wait for it.
One hundred percent,
With every penny spent.
He'll be the one that,
Finishes your sentences.

If it's not like the movies,
Thats how it should be.
When he's the one,
He'll come undone,
And my world will stop spinning,
And thats just the beginning.

'Cause I know you're out there,
And your, your love came for me.
It's a crazy idea that you were made,
Perfectly for me you'll see.

Just like the movies.
That's how it will be.
Cinematic and dramatic with the perfect ending.
It's not like the movies,
But that's how it will be.
When he's the one,
You'll come undone,
And your world will stop spinning,
And it's just the beginning.

These are the lyrics of Katy Perry's - Not Like the Movies. I am in love with this song right now and it explains exactly how I am feeling right now. Maybe one day I will elaborate on what I mean, but there is a reason for the sudden blog redesign and this specific post.

I LOVE KATY PERRY SO MUCH! She is gorgeous and knows exactly what to say to make me feel better, its like she reads my mind!

{I'm registered}

2011-03-12T07:54:00.001-08:00

Some might see the heading of this post and think, "What? she's getting married?, oh the contraire. I am officially registered for the MUSS. For those of you that either are not from Utah, or go to the Devil School and are completely oblivious of what goes on outside of the Provo Valley. The MUSS is the Might Utah Student Section, where every home game and some of the away games we have the opportunity to sit in the Utah section and enjoy the game with the rest of the avid Utah fans! It is going to be a great season now that we are in the Pac 12 and we have a great schedule ahead of us. I am also excited because I am sitting with all my friends at the game! WOOO!

So excited!! BE PREPARED FOR MORE PICS THROUGH THE SEASON!

{Rock the "CASH BOX"}

2011-03-09T15:21:00.001-08:00

GLORIOUS! I am finally done with my thirty day about me posts and although it was nice to get back into swing of posting on my blog, I WAS SO DONE WITH IT!

Today I have decided to blog on out office game that we do everyday at 4:00 PM on the dot. It is called "Cash Box". The idea is to set up the box to where the shot is tricky, but do-able, stand behind the yard stick, and throw the hand made, paper-wrapped in tape ball. It is a lot of fun! If the shot is made by more than one person than it goes into a shoot off and the person that is the one to make the most or win the shoot off gets to set it up the next day AND candy from the office managers desk...

I am decent at it but I wouldn't say that I am the CASH BOX WINNER!

Also, another bit of information, we keep track of the winners and at the end of the month the person that wins the most gets a certificate that says Cash Box Champion.

See the yard stick? The purple box?... how bout the hand made ball?

The idea of this shot was to hit the window before it goes in.

My mom in the middle of her shot.

This is me.... TODAY!

A photograph of yourself today + three good things that have happened in the past

{#1} I lived in Florida and had the most wonderful and greatest experience of all time! I am sure you are all so sick of hearing about it.

{#2} I transferred to the University of Utah, I realized while in Florida that if I wanted a successful future I needed to transfer schools. Luckily it was a pretty easy transfer because I already had my associates degree

{#3} I worked my butt off and even did a summer class, but I was able to receive my associated degree from Utah Valley University right before I moved to Florida.

{DAY #29}

2011-03-03T21:16:00.001-08:00

Something I will never get sick of doing....

Going to this place...

Going to the U games and screaming until my voice is gone...

Going and watching baseball games...

Riding bikes... IT IS MY FAVORITE EXERCISE...

{DAY #28}

2011-03-03T21:07:00.000-08:00

It is too darn hard to pick just one movie I love, seriously! With a person like me, owning 200 + movies, I cannot just pick one. So I am picking my top three, in no particular to order...

CAMP ROCK 2: THE FINAL JAM

not only do I love the Jo Bros and Demi, but I also love the music and dancing in it!

FEVER PITCH

Being an avid Red Sox fan this movie is a must, it is just a perk that two of my favorite actors is in this movie!

PRINCESS AND THE FROG

What kind of Disney cast member would I be if I didn't choose one with a princess or one that is animated. I love Princess and The Frog, seriously it is amazing and the fact that it is set in New Orleans with dancing and Jazz music makes me so happy! SEE IT!

{DAY #27}

2011-03-02T07:57:00.000-08:00

See this place? --->

Once upon a time, I lived in Florida, primarily on Walt Disney World Property :-)

I am still shocked when I think that I lived in Florida for 5 months. CRAZY!

I have been to many places in America, California, Las Vegas, New York, Alabama, St. Louis, Washington State, Connecticut, and more, but the place that has hit me the most is Florida. It has sculpted me into being a very diligent worker and a more patient person! I believe everyone needs to experience working for Disney, it takes the magic to a whole new level.

2011-03-01T12:08:00.001-08:00

DAY #25

WHATS IN MY PURSE? You sure you want to know? haha, well simultaneously my purse doubles as my backpack, so it is always shoved with homework, books, note cards and other things like that.

Luckily though, I keep all my personal stuff (Or try to) in the front pocket.

I have a confession to make... I have a purse feddish! SO MUCH! I love buying new purses or switching purses quite frequently because I just get bored. lol. So this bag will more than likely be different in about a week or two!

{DAY #24}

2011-02-28T14:12:00.000-08:00

A photo of something that means a lot to you.

My Education means everything to me! I come from a family where my parents do not have degrees and have always had to work their butts of to succeed. They are amazing people and would do anything to make sure their kids are taken care of. Although I will probably have to do that with a degree in education, I know that I will have a little more security than they have!

I received my associates degree last summer through Utah Valley University and will be receiving my Bachelors in Elementary Education in May of 2013! I know it seems far for most people but that is not too bad! I am excited to get into that classroom and help those elementary students that need a teacher willing to help them out!

A letter to someone who has hurt you recently.

Honestly, I have a pretty decent life. I cannot complain at all. I know I do complain from time to time because my life is so repetitive, but the run ins with people that I have had is pretty decent. When I worked at Disney there were people yelling at me all the time and I took it to heart, but I am only a recruiter now, not working Merchandise. So I cannot do today's challenge... I AM SORRY!

{STRESS}

2011-02-25T17:13:00.000-08:00

I have been a stress mess lately, just ask my boyfriend and Kendra. I freak out about everything, but in the end what I need gets done. I am a zombie lately though, just going through then day to day motions of life and I hate it. I am usually so lively and full of personality but not right now! So now that this week is over I need to see that...

I am only 23 days from Spring break and this Lovely city...

I am lucky, I have people around me and around the country that love me, I am not struggling for some of the necessities people that I know are, I am doing well in school, I am able to go to school, and I have a roof over my head (which comes in handy when it is freezing outside). I need to realize MY LIFE IS AMAZING!

Meaning behind my blog name...

well my URL is www.keshaphillips.blogspot.com which is very obvious, my name is Kesha Phillips lol but when you click on my blog the name that's at the top of the tap it is {Living the life of Kesha Kamille}. I think the reason why I put my blog name as that is because this blog is basically me venting on my life, you can choose to read it or not, but this is my life.

Some people drift through their entire life. They do it one day at a time, one week at a time, one month at a time. It happens so gradually they are unaware of how their lives are slipping away until it's too late.

-Mary Kay Ash

I'm just making myself and other people more aware of how I think and how my life is going day by day.

SOMETHING THAT I CRAVE... A LOT!!

Okay so anyone that knows me well would know Dr. Pepper is my drink of choice but lately I have been craving this lovely drink...

Yes, Cherry coke. It cannot be in a can or a bottle, it has to be on ice. It is wonderful! If you haven't ever tried it then I would recommend you do so.

Besides that I crave weir things like Cafe Rio, La Frontera, Bacon, avocado, and pizza. I know I am weird and you would think that I am pregnant or something with that kind of craving, but its so not true!!!! lol

Make it a great day.

{DAY #17}

2011-02-21T08:53:00.000-08:00

A PHOTO OF MY FAMILY

Okay so I have two families but for some reason I do not have a picture of my other family on my computer. So I will focus on this one. I love my family so much, they are my strength and a stress relief for me. Yes We fight, all the time, but that is normal. For the most part my family is hilarious and SO weird.

MOM AND DAD (Gary)- Okay so my parents have been married for 15 years this July. Gary is actually my step dad but he has been around since I was four and has helped raise me. Both of my parents work their butts off! My dad works as a facilities manager at Draper City and my mom is a bookkeeper for the company that I work for, Pinnacle Quality Insight. They both are great people and have always encouraged me to do what is right!

DAD AND PATTY- Although I have never lived with them I feel that they have made a big influence on my life. Their main goal in life is success and college. College was not a choice for me, I HAD TO GO. And I have them to thank for the fact that I have been able to do so much with my college career. They both work full time as well, my dad owns his own business, Spectrum packaging and my step mom works in the billing department for a heart doctor at IMC. They are great people and have been married for about 17 years, give or take.

Im going to go in order with my siblings...

Kylee- She is my step sister but I have known her since she was two. She is a very strong willed girl, independent, and not afraid to tell people that she is boss. She has always been very mature for her age. She plays soccer right now at University of Alabama and will get her degree in PR and Marketing.

Sydney- A GENIUS!! Six years younger than me, but probably has the knowledge of someone six years older than me. She does not have to try at school at all, if she didn't study she would get Bs but because she studies she gets an A+ almost in every class. She is a Junior in high school at Juan Diego and is thinking of going to a school in California when she graduates. She is about a foot taller than me and has long legs that go on for miles.

Kassidy- SHE IS HILARIOUS... She is the blond one for sure in the family. She is always getting the jokes about 10 minutes later and she still doesn't understand them. BUT she is hilarious and would do anything for me. She is an animal lover and would be a vet if it weren't for her having to put them down or seeing them dead. She dances and plays volleyball and she is on her student council at Crescent View Middle School. She loves Justin Bieber and Channing Tatum, but what 13 year old girl doesn't. We are 8 years apart, but that doesn't keep us from being close.

Kaden- STUBBORN is all I have to say. He is the baby so he has always been kind of spoiled but hey If I were the baby I would want that too. He is a hard worker, never gives up, in fact he is my father's son for sure. He is really good with his hands, always disassembling things, working on the computer, and he loves filming things and editing them. Did I mention Kaden is 11. He is such a smart kid. He plays football and makes sure that he put all of his effort towards that during the season. His favorite team is the Cowboys (even though I do not think that he really knows much about them). Kade and I are 11 years apart so we have had our tiffs more often than not, but oh well, He is my brother and I love him.

I hope you enjoyed learning about my family and getting to know them a little,
we are a very unique bunch...

MY CELEBRITY CRUSH...

Well that is a simple one.

Aaron Rodgers... MMM!

{DAY #15}... Halfway there

2011-02-19T08:19:00.000-08:00

Something I do not leave the house without is my phone. Yes I have the Iphone 4, but that is not why I don't leave without it. It is my life line... It keeps me connected to everyone that I know around the world and it helps me separate myself from school and work.
I have had an Iphone since Christmas of 2008 and was able to get the 4 for Christmas this year. I have AT&T NOT Verizon and I am happy about that because apparently my Iphone 4 is much better than those of the ones on the Verizon plan! Either way, this is a great invention.

{DAY #14}

2011-02-19T08:15:00.000-08:00

ABC's GREEK is my show.. Yes I love GLEE and I am a GLEEK, but Greek has been my show for so long. I am an addict. We do not have cable at my house, so every Tuesday morning before school I catch up on the episode from the night before on HULU. I am obsessed. I love all the drama, college life, and Greek messes that they get themselves into.

If you haven't seen it... WATCH IT!

{DAY 13}

2011-02-19T08:10:00.000-08:00

Favorite Musician...

Okay so I don't have one favorite musician, I have four (two are deceased, but their music lives on). I love the Beatles so much! They are such a classic, their music is relate-able, and I think it is a very peaceful way to finish the night.

Plus, in my opinion, they are quite attractive (except Ringo and his teeth), I have a crush on young Paul :-)

{Just a thought}

2011-02-16T08:10:00.000-08:00

Okay I know I have already posted today, but I feel compelled to veer off of my basic Day to Day topics of you guys learning about me. After waking up at 5 and then hitting the snooze button twice I thought to myself, "UGH, why does my life suck to the point that I have to be up at five to go to school" but then I realized. I AM LUCKY! I take advantage of the fact that I have so much and have been able to take part in things like a college education. I was blog stalking (happens a lot) and I found a quote on a ladies page

"Why would God give you another day if you aren't going to use it"

I need to stop taking advantage of what I have, I need to see that most people are having a hard time staying afloat during these hard economic times, but I have a roof over my head, food on my plate, and am earning a $30,000 education to better myself and to have a career. No this doesn't mean I am going to start giving money to the homeless people that are begging, but I am going to start noticing things more and smiling during the day because who knows who is looking and who knows who's day will be better if they see that. HAPPINESS IS CONTAGIOUS!!!

So on that note... HAVE A GREAT DAY EVERYONE!!

{DAY #12}

2011-02-16T07:59:00.000-08:00

PICTURE OF THE CITY IN WHICH I LIVE...

A city that believes in... COPS!!!!

So many scenic areas, that make you think you aren't 15 minutes from the biggest city in the state.

A gorgeous temple, with a wonderful view...

A city that has a party that happens once a year for two weeks... DRAPER DAYS!!!

Not the biggest city on the map, but I surely love it. It is a city with so many hidden bike and running trails, a city full of active citizens, a city that loves to follow the rules... COUGH, the crazy cops, and a city that I have watched grow in the last 14 years. We used to be a cow and farming town, look at it now and you would never know.

{DAY #11}

2011-02-15T20:33:00.000-08:00

Whats in my makeup bag? Well my mornings end up being very simple!! Just a simple application of concealer, maybe some blush, eye shadow, the most amazing eye liner pen ever, Mascara, and then lip gloss...

I have more lip gloss in my purse, make up bag, and makeup drawer to even count

I love Mac eye shadows, I dont have all these colors, but the ones that I do have I love!

This eye liner pen is THE BEST invention ever. It is exactly what it sounds like. easy applied eye liner through a pen!!

Just basic concealer, nothing special...

And... The mascara that I LIVE BY!! It is Maybelline's The Colossal mascara. It works very well on my lashes and I am not allergic to it (In florida i found out I am allergic to some mascaras because they gave me very bad styes. Not to worry though, I have gone back to this mascara since those incidents)

{DAY #10}

2011-02-14T07:20:00.002-08:00

DAY #10.... My Favorite Place to Eat!!

OKAY, so I have two favorite places and they are both Mexican restaurants. I LOVE MEXICAN FOOD! MMM....

First: La Frontera. I have been going to this restaurant since I was a little girl and I still love it. La (My nickname for it) is a local family owned restaurant and has expanded through the entire state. La Puente, which is also part of the family, is just as good (a little cheaper and they put more cheese on their stuff). Wanna win over my heart? Take me to La Frontera or La Puente

Second: CAFE RIO... I do not know many people that live in Utah that do not like Cafe Rio. They pretty much have something for anyone's appetite... EXCEPT FAST FOOD... But either way it is wonderful. I always order a pork salad, no rice, black beans, shredded lettuce, and everything on it, and who can go wrong with the house dressing. Then I always top it off with a ice cold Dr. Pepper with their crushed ice. MMM Its 8:30 AM and I am already craving it. If you haven't eaten there, you better because it has been given many awards for its wonderful entrees.

{DAY #9}

2011-02-14T07:20:00.001-08:00

A Picture of the last thing you purchased....
Okay, so I didn't purchase this month this weekend other than a few drinks and a lunch on Saturday. BUT I did purchase something this morning.... MY VICE! I love Starbucks peppermint hot chocolate. It is a problem I have, I crave them so much! I recommend everyone try one because they are wonderful.

{DAY #8}

2011-02-12T09:11:00.000-08:00

A Song that matches my mood...

I do not know what it is about this song but I love dancing to it on the Trax... BUT Today's theme song seems to be...

It seems lately all I have been doing is having a great time with my life and my friends, I am very thankful for them, so Good Time by Alan Jackson seems sufficient!!!

{Day #7}

2011-02-11T15:58:00.000-08:00

Wedding plans

When: Fall wedding (Maybe October or November)

Where: I would like them both to be inside, with dim lighting, and a warmth to it that welcomes people. Maybe like Gardner Village…. If I didn’t have a budget I would want to get married at this place…

Fenway Park

Colors: Right now I would like Brown, Rust Orange, and a plum purple

Flowers: Circus Roses or Orange and purple tinted Calla Lilies

Music: OF COURSE!!! I want a DJ that plays everything!

Photography: Swensen Photography

I have been really good friends with the owners ever since I was younger and I have always been impressed with their work.

I also like Courtney Brooke Photography, I went to high school with her and I really like her rustic appeal to photography.

http://www.brookecourtney.com/portfolio/

Check it out!

CAKE: THE BEST PART… I am not sure what design I want but I know who will be doing it already... BUT if I tell you who I will have to kill you :-P

BUT I wouldn't mind if http://www.thechocolatedc.com/were there in some way. a guy I work with is the owner with his wife and they make amazing cupcakes. My favorite is Choco-caramel MMMM!!!!

I want a nice and elegant feel to my wedding, nothing too cheesy and nothing tacky. I am a pretty fun and laid back person, but the one day that I can be elegant and classy I would like to be able to call myself the bride that people are jealous of!

{DAY #6}

2011-02-09T22:04:00.000-08:00

I would love to have a monkey as a pet... isn't he great? I would love to keep him and snuggle him. GREAT PERSONALITY

{DAY #5}

2011-02-09T21:59:00.000-08:00

Short hair, 20 pounds heavier, and a month from moving home to Salt Lake. This was taken at my apartment complex in St. George. See how much I have changed?

{DAY #4}

2011-02-09T21:50:00.000-08:00

My favorite picture of my best friend... now not only do I have more than one best friend but I have so many pictures of them. NOT TO WORRY!! This will only take a minute

Carlye... She is amazing!! I do not know where I would be without her. She is my rock and knows how to help me and knows just what to say.

Kendra... She helped me get through my program in all the best ways possible. She is a very intelligent person and knows how to word things just the right way to help me out! She is amazing.

and... JOE!! He is great, will agree with me even when we both know I am wrong, shares my love for Disney, and was my first real friend at UVU. He has helped me through a ton and nothing has changed since I have transferred

{DAY #3}

2011-02-07T06:42:00.001-08:00

Day #3, My idea of the perfect first date.

Honestly, I am a pretty easy going girl. If food and laughing is involved then I am pleased. I also think it depends on the time of year... Summer would be a game of mini golf (in which the guy would allow me to cheat) or a picnic, a fall date could have to do with spending time in Park City because I love it in the fall, winter would consist of seeing the lights of temple square.. OF COURSE!!, but in general dinner and hanging out makes me a happy girl!

If I could choose an ideal Utah date it would probably consist of a sports game like a Jazz game, a Grizz game, a Bees game, or a Utah game (even though I will have season tickets for it). I am a huge sports fanatic and if a guy is taking me on a date that is sports related shows me that he is into it too!

If I could choose an ideal date outside of Utah I would want to go to an afternoon Boston Red Sox game at Fenway and then watch the sun go down near the stadium.

{DAY #2}

2011-02-07T06:35:00.001-08:00

Okay already a day behind, but catching up will be easy...

DAY #2 a Picture of something you ate today!

In honor of the super bowl of course I ate some delicious food, my favorite would have to be my dad's BBQ Chicken... MMMM!!! It was great.

P.S.

See this man?...
I think he is so sexy, no I am not a Green and Yellow fan, but I am a fan of Aaron Rodgers and I think he is soooo hot!!
That is all

{DAY #1}

2011-02-05T06:58:00.000-08:00

DAY 1: Photo of self and how day has gone...

Well... since it is 8 am and not much has gone on yet I will talk about how my weekwent, after all it is Saturday. My week was absolutely boring... I won't life. All I ever do is have the same schedule every week

MONDAY AND WEDNESDAY

Class from 8:00 AM - 2:15 PM (With some breaks in between)
Work 4:00 PM - 8:00 PM

TUESDAY AND THURSDAY

Class from 12:25 PM-1:45 PM
Work 4:00 PM - 8:00 PM

FRIDAY

Class from 10:45 AM - 2:15 PM
Work from 4:00 PM - 8:00 PM

and today... SATURDAY, I work 9:00 AM - 5:00 Pm

Working six days a week and going to school five days a week is really taking a toll on me. I would like to be able to have two days off, but heck Ive gotta pay the bills somehow.

I need to stop complaining though, I have a job, a boyfriend that loves me, and a roof over my head. I need to be grateful that I have things that others would kill to have.

One good thing that happened this week is that Charles bought his plane ticket out to visit :-) He is coming May 10th-17th for my best friend Carlye's wedding. I am so excited to see him! it has only been a month since we have seen each other, but going from seeing each other every day for two months straight to nothing is hard! Luckily we talk everyday like 6 times a day lol.

Well, I think that is about it for my day #1 on my posts... until tomorrow.

καλημέρα

My best friends from the program... Ash and Kendra

My boyfriend Charles

I figured I would start posting since I am back in Utah and have a few extra minutes here and there. So I am back, going to the U and continuing to work at the place I was before Disney. I miss Dis so much and am really sad that my boyfriend Charles is back there without me. BUT It is nice to get back to reality. I am about to finish my third week of school and it is going pretty smoothly, considering I came from UV (pretty much high school). Time to get back to school.

MAKE IT A GREAT DAY!

Gorgeous View of the lake at Wilderness Lodge

My awesome friend Myles

Me... I dont even know what to say about this haha

Me at Merchantainment

Me at the Red Sox vs. Rays game

Im sooooo sorry to those of you who read my blog, i am a little behind with keeping you updated. The days and weeks tend to blend together here at Disney! I am having a great time out here, almost been a month since I arrived, but I am so excited to go home in January. I miss my family, my best friend Car, and my sexy bf Chris!! Luckily my family is coming to visit in December :-) so the sting of loneliness will be kinda gone lol. I have met a gazillion people here, all very different from people from Utah. I also never thought I would say I LOVE UTAH! it has 4 seasons, people are nice, it is typically safe, and although people judge I know I can walk down the street and it will typically be clean.
Dont get me wrong, I like this place and I am working a ton (which I love) and I am getting life experiences people will never be able to have!!!

{First Day Off}

2010-08-17T06:37:00.001-07:00

Okay, so I have been at Disney for a week and a day and let me tell you something, they work you to the bone!! This is my first day off since I have been here! Dont get me wrong I love working, I love the income, and I love my co workers, I even added an extra shift next week because I only had 40 hours (Disney allows overtime). BUT I am so happy to have today off just cuz my feet hurt haha. Today I will be going to Epcot with some girls from work and then going to Sweet Tomatoes for my friend Matt's Birthday. Oh I guess I should give a shout out.... HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ONE OF MY FIRST FRIENDS DOWN HERE, MATT MOLANDES. HE IS 22 AND FROM TEXAS!

Well thats all for today... Good Day ya'll!

{Florida}

2010-08-10T17:18:00.000-07:00

Okay, so I made it to Florida and I thought I would update you all on what I have done thus far...

Day one:
Check in and casting. We checked in and got our apartment.

Then we went to casting in which I got my job, I will be working at... Drum Roll Please... World of Disney, which is the biggest Disney store in the world. After all the hurry up and wait in all the lines yesterday we were exhausted and needed to go out, so we did. We went to Downtown Disney for dinner and a shot.

Day two:
We woke up and went to housing, which was a two and a half hours of just talking about what we can do and what we can't do in the apartments. After the meeting my roommates and I went to Downtown Disney again and hung out, we didn't really do much. BUT when I got bake I finally got my room all together... here it is

My bed...

sorry its blurry, but this is my half of the dresser...

This is my half of my closest.

Tomorrow I have traditions which is a 4 hour class where we have to dress up and learn about all of the traditions of the Disney. I will also get my employee i.d. and my park pass which will get me into all the parks... HOLLA!!!

Here are some other things I have done..

The cute snow globe I found, SO CUTE

I met a legit giant, he is 7' 3" and even on a chair he is taller than me, I don't even know how he can handle it cuz I wouldn't like to be that tall. I know his name so I call him Giant, but he is nice.

{HERE I GO}

2010-08-08T07:14:00.000-07:00

Hey everyone, I am about to board my plane. I just wanna say keep checking my blog and I will keep you all updated! See you in a few Disney World

{Brady's Bridal Shower}

2010-07-15T10:37:00.000-07:00

One of my drill friends, Candace Brady, is getting MARRIED and last Saturday our friend McKell threw her a bridal shower. It was so fun to see them and catch up with them since all of us live in every end of the valley, state, and soon to be country.

For two of these girls I was on drill with them for 3 years, one of them I was on it for 2, and the two girls on the end I was on drill with them for a year. We have a lot of amazing memories that I would never take back!

This was us about 3.5 years ago at one of the invitational competitions. It is crazy to see how people have changed.

GO Alta High Las Scelles

{Sir Paul McCartney}

2010-07-15T10:35:00.000-07:00

On Tuesday night I was able to work the Paul McCartney concert at Rio Tinto Stadium. I have worked the Eagles and Styx concert in the past but every concert I have ever been to or worked does not compare to how amazing this show was!!! He is a god to me because I have grown up loving the Beatles. He played for 3 hours and 15 minutes straight, and played a ton of Beatles songs! I was also able to watch the sound check and when he walked out I got the chills and my eyes teared up becasue I was about 100 yards from a legend. I got a few pictures and a video but I will load the video later becasue it takes forever to upload it!

This was when he had just opened the night.

Joe and I working the concert

{Bear Lake}

2010-07-15T10:33:00.000-07:00

So for the 4th Chris and I met my parents up at Bear Lake for the weekend. It was a ton of fun to just relax!! We celebrated both of my uncle's 40th birthdays, sat by the pool, took naps (if you know Chris and I that is a rarity), read a lot, spent time with my dad's side of the family, and just had a blast!! Sadly the picture that I have above is the only one that I have on my purse camera (I have a professional camera and a purse camera).

{Christopher's Brithday}

2010-07-15T10:21:00.000-07:00

My amazing Boyfriend turned 24 at the end of June so all of us {our friends, mostly consisting of Greeks} decided to head up to the Tavernacle in Salt Lake. It was a great time. Both Chris and I had to get up on the pianos and dance. Sadly they were at different times. For mine I got up to dance with some 21 year old boy that was there for his birthday, I had to go up because he had picked me out of the crowd to dance with him. The real questions is Why? I had to play "head shoulders knees and toes" while touching the parts of the body that was sang in the song. I also had to touch other body parts that I did not want to touch. lol Then Chris got up to dance to "Like a Virgin" and ended up putting on a boa, taking off his shirt, and then having a cougar woman buy him a drink... cougars have this thing for him for some reason? He seems to think it is because he is a pilot but I do not know how she would have known that he was a pilot? Maybe its the vibe? haha either way he got a shot from it! All-in-all it was a fantastic night and I was happy that a bunch of people showed up to let Chris know that he is a great person!

The birthday boy and I

Nefi and Mar

Gerald

Mar and I

The Tavernacle makes people show their true affection for each other ;-) Nefi and Cruches.

I am sorry Amanda and John that I did not get any pictures of you, thanks for coming though.

{Christine's Visit}

2010-07-15T10:00:00.001-07:00

Okay, so I am sorry that lately I haven't really posted anything about my life, it is more about random thoughts of mine. So I thought I would bombard y'all with a good amount of posts and info on what has been going on for the past month.

In June my friend Christine flew into Salt Lake from Texas for her birthday. We spent Friday to Monday just hanging out and having fun.

We went to Texas Roadhouse for her first Birthday dinner.

Went to Cheesecake Factory on Sunday for her second Birthday dinner

Man isn't my boyfriend the cutest?

We went to a moving out party at my friend Amanda's apartment...

We went to the Real Game

We also did some laying out... I must say her reaction to Utah sun was not what I expected. She is from Texas and is used to it being hot, but she said that it is crazy hot here in Utah becasue our elevation is a lot higher, so halfway through us laying out she couldn't handle it and had to go in the shade. Its nice to know that Utah has something against Texas, our amazing sun!! ;-)

It seriously was an amazing weekend and i miss her so much. I cannot wait until she moves to Florida while I am there and we will be inseparable!

{BLONDE MOMENT}

2010-07-09T16:12:00.000-07:00

Okay so at work today I had a major blonde moment. it happens very rarely so you guys better relish in this...

Kesha: What’s the uh, …code thingy for Orlando?

Nathan: You mean the airport code?

Kesha: No, I know that. You know, like the code for Oregon is OR. What is the code for Orlando? OL? OD?

Nathan: How about “FL”?

{Obession}

2010-06-25T09:51:00.000-07:00

okay, so of course I've known about Pandora radio forever and I even have the app on my phone but I have a new found love and obsession.

BACKSTREET BOYS RADIO... its seriously is the best, it is a complete flashback to my childhood. They play things like BSB, N'SYNC, 98 degrees, Celine Dion, Britney Spears, and much more! it seriously makes me so happy to think that I can listen to free music from my phone and it is songs that I haven't heard in ages!

On another note, it is my amazing boyfriends birthday this weekend. He will be 24 on Sunday and I am planning a few things to celebrate such an occasion... welp, that's all!

{just a question}

2010-06-21T18:46:00.000-07:00

In the Midst of all this World Cup Maddness, who do you think the hottest soccer player is?

My Money is on sexy Landon Donovan!!

{Numero Tres}

2010-06-21T18:39:00.000-07:00

The first thing that I must say is "OH MY GOODNESS" I could not have been more happier to spend $6.00 (Matinee on Sunday) to see this amazing, tremendous, stupendous movie!! My friend Christine, from Texas, came to visit (which I will post about as soon as I get home) and we both have a major love os Disney, I mean I am going to work there in the fall. So we felt it very necessary to see the newly released Toy Story 3.... It was the best! I laughed, I cried, I was bitter, I was scared, really I just felt so many different emotions! Toy Story is a movie from my childhood and now that I am a grown up it really hit home to me! I highly recommend that yall go and see it! :-)

{Arts & Crafts Time}

2010-06-14T17:03:00.000-07:00

Okay, so I am kind of a procrastinator at my summer school homework, so instead of completing it I did these two awesome crafts. They were really easy and really cheap to do. I thought I would start making cheap and small things for my room in Florida, and since my bed spread colors are purple and black I kept along with that theme.

My picture frame, no it is not Mod Podge, I actually painted it and hot glued everything on. I just need to find a picture to put in it.

Do you like? it was so freakin easy. All it took was one coat of black paint, hot glue, and some ribbon!!

{Sleepover}

2010-06-14T16:48:00.001-07:00

This weekend I was able to sleepover at my aunt and uncles house, which doesn't happen too often because my schedule is a little crazy, and I got to enjoy my time with these two cuties...

This is my best friend in the whole wide world, my 5 year old cousin MEGAN!!

And this is my 2 year old cousin HEATHER!!

Seriously it was a great time, watching Fern Gully, coloring, and eating strawberry shortcake for dessert. I could not have imagined a better way to spend my Friday night.

This is HEDER (that is what we call her because when she was born Megan couldn't say Heather). She has yummy Strawberry Shortcake all up in her hair. Seriously the sweetest person you will ever meet!

{Very Little time}

2010-06-07T15:44:00.000-07:00

Although I have very little time to make a full post I thought I would let ya'll know that I am moving in a short time from now. Yesterday I bought all the space packs that I should need to fit my entire life in to move. I cannot believe that I only have 11 bags (once vacuumed packed it will seem much smaller) to have my entire life in! Awe, I am so exited for this experience I am about to embark on and i wish it would come a little bit faster! Welp, unitl I have more time...

{Photo Shoot with my sister}

2010-05-28T07:57:00.001-07:00

So, here are just a few of the pictures I took with Kassy. I feel that they turned out pretty good, but ya'll should let me know. Obviously I am very new to it, but if anyone wants to be my guinea pig I would be more than happy to do so!

{PEACE & BLESSINGS}

2010-05-20T18:13:00.000-07:00

{OMG} that is all I have to say, I cannot believe it is already the 20th of may and it has been a week since I last blogged. Luckily I have some extra time before I head home from work to blog about what I have been up to lately:

*I officially started my summer school schedule which is quite simple, only one more class until I have my associates so that is what it is. Race and Minorities, I must say that it is quite a fantastic class... three days a week, only one test (in which I have already received this test, it is take home and open book), the book is an online free book, we get to eat different types of food from people's culture and home pretty much every day, and my professor is very funny [I highly recommend Ron Hammond for anything]

*I had a fantastic BBQ last weekend with all my friends at my house and it was the best, everyone that I wanted was there, a few were MIA, but other than that it was a great turnout and a amazing food.

*I have a boyfriend, his name is Christopher!

*The sorority I am the founder of is possibly getting extended by a NPC sorority Alpha Sigma Alpha. Their extension committee is coming next week to present to us and we will decide if they are what we want.

*It has been raining lately and I absolutely LOVE IT!!

*i have family pictures coming up on Sunday, not to worry, I will post the pics asap. (I am taking the pictures and it is all extended family.)

*I received a promotion at work about a month ago and I am loving it, I am a shift supervisor and am now pretty much working full time.

*Just 80 more days until I get to move to the happiest place on Earth!

*Next weekend my Great Grandma Val is turning 90, holy crap 90? That woman is the best! In fact, she is still working two days a week for an insurance company, crazy huh? Keep going Granny!

And I think that is it for now, I will let you know if anything from here until my next blog changes in my life!!
I will leave you with a freaking funny video that I love OH SO MUCH!!

PEACE & BLESSINGS,
PEACE & BLESSINGS!!

{DABBLING IN PHOTOGRAPHY}

2010-05-11T14:32:00.000-07:00

Okay, so my cousin Wesley is graduating from Cyrpus High School in June and his mom asked me to do his Senior Pictures because she saw the family pictures I had done in December for my immediate family. Of course I was more than happy to do so because not only do I love taking pictures but, Wesley is one of my favorite cousins! One gorgeous Sunday we were able to go to Draper Park and take some great pictures. It is funny because he says that he is not photogenic, but I would definitely have to say that is not true!

So if any of you need someone cheap to do your pictures, I mean really cheap, I am more than willing. I have such a fun time doing it and would love to do pictures for any occasions.

PS I want to say sorry about the quality, it was loaded by my phone so it isn't the best, but my computer would not load them for some reason!

{MOM}

2010-05-10T21:48:00.000-07:00

Okay, so I know I did not blog on mother's day, but I thought I would make up for it tonight and just tell you all how blessed I am to have an amazing mother like my own. She has been through so much, some of you know and some dont, but you would never know because she is so humble and doesnt put herself first. She is my best friend and has helped me become the person that I am today! I am going to miss her so much when I am gone, but I know that she will always be there for me no matter our geographical positions.

LOVE YOU MOM

Me, Mom, and Kass

My gorgeous mom, Kim, She is the best!

{90 Days}

2010-05-10T21:36:00.000-07:00

HECK YES! Okay, so I am sure if ya'll are wondering if I am scared to move across the country and I would say YES with not hesitation, but I am more excited than anything. I have only lived in Utah so i am excited to experience something new, meet people that are not LDS, people are are different, I am excited to call myself a Florida [temporary] resident, i am excited to live with people from all over the country and world, I am excited to work for the biggest and best company in the world, and I am mostly excited to take a little break from college without actually taking a break (hence the college program name). Oh I am so nervous, I am scared to leave my mom and family, I am nervous to live with people that may not like me, I am scared to work for the largest company in the world, and I am scared to be in a place that is completely unfamiliar. But in the end this will be the best experience ever, even if it ends badly, at least I can say that I am 21 years old and I am moving across the country to work for Disney! So I thought I would dedicate this post to my last 90 days in Utah, this time has gone by so fast. I remember when I applied in January and thought that August would never come, FALSE, it is nearly here. I have invested in my luggage :-) and i am so excited to start packing up, but I don't think Ill do that until about 10 days to my flight! So if you want to hang out before I leave then you have until August 8th.

{HAPPY BIRTHDAY SQUID}

2010-04-27T12:43:00.000-07:00

I just want to say happy birthday to my gorgeous sister Sydney, she is 16 today and I thought I would type 16 things that are great about her...

16. She has been taller than me since she was about 13, her legs pretty much touch the sky compared to my short-stubby legs..

15. She is the baby of the family so my sister and I always used to pick on her, but she still is such a good sport.

14. She cheered for Juan Diego for her Freshman and Sophomore year of high school.

13. She has been given an ambassador for her Junior year of high school. (For those of you that don't know what that it, it is like college ambassadors. chosen off of recommendations, school involvement, an interview, and most of all amazing grades.)

12. She has given up her chance to have a car at 16 to go to Europe for two weeks with Juan Diego. I AM JEALOUS

11. She is a little clumsy, she has always been the person to trip over her own feet or hurt herself by just air.

10. She is 6 years younger than me.

9. She is a great cook and baker, I cannot recall many times I have gone over to my dad's that she has not baked cupcakes or cookies.

8. She is my half sister.

7. She is a little bit of a math nerd like me, she is more of an all around nerd though.

6. She recently had surgery on her knee.

5. She is a yankees fan.

4. When she was little she always ended up getting food on top of her forehead, I don't know how that is possible, but she managed it.

3. Last summer we were driving to Alabama to drop off our sisters car and she said, "MMM, I would really like a cheeseburger right now." So we stopped at a Dairy Queen to get food and what did she order?.... Chicken strips. haha we decided that she was no longer going to decide where we were eating the rest of the trip.

2. Her nickname to me is Tarantula but her other nicknames entail: Daddy Long Leg, Squid, and Syd.

1. She is a great sister and I know that she will grow up to be successful no matter what she does.

Happy birthday Syd, LOVE YOU!

This was us on the bus to go and see Graceland in Memphis

Major Cabin Fever in the car on the way to Alabama

This is Syd and I in the Lewis and Clark Museum in St. Louis. We kinda... got lost. They had to call our name over the speaker system like 4 times haha

{EMERALD BALL}

2010-04-13T15:13:00.000-07:00

My Sorority, The Kappa Sisters, hosted their first formal ball on Saturday. it was a great time and I had a hot date. His name is Eric Lowe and he is in the Army, we met through my friend Spencer; we are just friends but he is such a nice guy. All in all it was a great night and I am very happy with the turnout... Thank you to all that came!

{IM IN LA TRICK}

2010-04-06T07:53:00.001-07:00

Okay, so usually during my spring break I dont do anything fun because my brother and sister are on a completely different schedule, but this year I really wanted to do something fun. I decided to go with my friends Joe and Derek to California.

We left thursday night pretty late because Derek had to work, and we drove all the way through to California. By about 5am we reached LA and just drove around looking at things, finding where FIDM was, and went to Venice Beach. We finally stopped at a hotel and slept for a few hours.

We got up and went to the grove mall in Beverly Hills, this is the traffic in LA, i love it because LA drivers get from one place to another as fast as they can and they know that everyone is in the same boat so they don't procrastinate... unlike UTAH drivers.

I love the name Falafel!

On our way to the Grove

Beverly Hills Court House... Gorgeous!

Staples Center

On our way to VENICE BEACH after the Grove Mall

We spend the next day taking a tour of FIDM and then driving to Anaheim...

{Audition}

2010-03-25T19:10:00.000-07:00

Hey, i have my audition tomorrow at 4:00 PM... WISH ME LUCK!

Just in case you were wondering, this audition is for entertainment in Disneyworld. So If I do well at this and they like me then I could be working entertainment (characters, parades, etc..) on the property! BIG DEAL!

P.S.S

Pictures from My spring break in California are on their way soon, so brace yourself!

{The ABCs I dont like}

2010-03-03T13:48:00.001-08:00

okay, so I have seen many blogs of people doing the ABCs of the things that they love but why do people never write things that they hate, or may be I should rephrase that, things that we dislike (hate is a strong word)? I mean everyone complains on their facebook status anyway, might as well! So here is mine...

A- Alarm Clocks, I hate having to hear them in the morning, I look forward to those few days that I get to sleep in!
B- Brussel Sprouts

C- Calamari (octopus tentacles)

D- Dying too young
E- Economy.. Need I say more?

F- French Fries, I lvoe them and I hate them. They go straight to my butt and they are so greasy. They are some of the highest calorie foods in America's fast food places.

G- Germany because it houses one of my best friends due to the Army.
H- heights

I- Itchy things. a Mesquite bite is not fun and will ruin a summer day in a flash!

J- Joints, my hips, knees, shoulders, everything hurts during the week at some time or another. Today: Shoulder Monday: right hip... I have great genetics! lol

K- Kittens, oh they are so cute but man do they make me break out in hives!!
L- Liars! I have come in contact with too many of them over my life!

M- Money, it is a love hate relationship. I hate having to pay bills and crap but oh man I love
shopping.

N- Nonsense... do I need to explain more?

O- Onions

P- Periods, I am sorry, I didn't mean to gross people out, but I cannot deny it. I hate getting a
visit each month from Aunt Flo!

Q- quitters, I know life is tough but there are people that have it harder than us!

R- Running, I know it is good for me but ugh I hate doing it!

S- Spiders (I even had a hard time looking at this picture while typing)

T- Tobacco

U- UTAH VALLEY, I love utah and I am slowly starting to like UVU, but oh my people are so weird in Utah Valley. Super Mormon, judging, and constantly looking for a soul mate. Cant we all just get through school without walking down the hall and getting weird looks because of the words we say or what we are wearing. I cannot tell you how many people I have walked past in the hall that are pregnant, pregnant and in school? that has stress written all over it.

V- Valentine's Day. I actually think it is a very boring day with or without a boyfriend because people always hype it up. Why cant we just love each other all year round and not be forced to love on 2/14?

W- Winter, okay I take that back I like it to snow from Thanksgiving to New Years but THAT IS
ALL! It does not need to last through March and sometimes to April and May.

X- I dont there is anything that starts with X that I dislike, I even looked up nouns online and there was nothing. So X gets a clean break.

Y- YANKEES, ugh I hope that Red Sox slaughter them this year!

Z- Zits

{I LOVE PLAYING TAG}

2010-02-26T11:44:00.000-08:00

Mrs. Nat Benson tagged me in this (because she knows I stalk her blog) and I thought it would be fun to do...

10 years ago: 10 years ago I was in 5th grade at Draper Elementary, my teacher was Mr. Beverly, and had the coolest friends ever (well as cool as 5th graders can be). I was really into N*SYNC, I even remember missing school one day to go and get the CD. My friends included Amber Hart(Larsen), Jamee Schelin, Heather Cooley, Gabby Frazier, Rilye Marlowe, and Dillion Lawrence. We all lived in the same neighborhood together and would do everything together! I was also dancing at Dance Attack.

5 years ago: 5 years ago I was a sophomore at Alta High School. I was on the Las Scelles drill team and was loving every minute of my busy life. My best friend then was Kylle Groskreutz and I was dating Landon Pace. I didn't really dance much that year because I was the awesome alternate, but I enjoyed going to basketball and football games with the group (Kylle, Landon, Preston Suter, Alex Perkins, Brady Peterson, Ryan Reid, and Aubrey Robinson). I had also taken a great interest in hockey since my bf at the time was on the Alta team. I got my license and became the person to drive people around since I was the oldest one in the group. Man living the life, thats for sure!

5 months ago: 5 months ago I had just started my 2nd semester at UVU and decided that I needed to get involved more, being a student was not enough.

OKAY, so some of you that go on Facebook frequently know that I have been accepted to the Disney College Program. It is a paid internship through Disney World in Orlando, Florida, where I will be working and living on the lot for the next school year (as of now it is just the fall semester, but I may want to extend it). Right now I am going to be working merchandise more than full time during the week and I am also going to be auditioning at the end of March to be a performer, I hope that I get it so that I can do something besides selling merchandise 50+ hours a week. Either way I think that this is a great opportunity and such a good thing for me to experience, it is also a resume builder for my future. Thank you everyone for your support, I really am soooooo excited to do this, it has been my dream to work for Disney my entire life and now I get to be right in the action.

PS My first day of orientation is August 9th,

so I am not leaving right away! ;-)

{ITS ALMOST HERE}

2010-02-09T16:42:00.000-08:00

YAY, football is finally over (not that I don't love it, but it was dragging on a little bit). So only 54 days until opening say at Fenway Park where the Red Sox will beat the Yanks. I am so excited for the season to start, luckily college started last weekend and spring training for Boston starts March 3rd in Florida! AHHH I LOVE BASEBALL!

"Take care of yourself. Good health is everyone's major source of wealth.

Without it, happiness is almost impossible."

Okay, so I stole this from my friend Kell and she stole it from her sister. Her sister had this idea called {Project Happiness}, where as the days and weeks go on you do something that makes you happy. Each day you will spend a little time doing something that makes you happy. It could be something as small as a smile, listening to one song that makes your smile, or getting a hug from someone, or it can be large: taking a nap, skipping a class (I cannot promote this one, but man would it be fun), or splurging on a new pair of shoes. It doesn't matter, just make yourself happy!

Lately I have been super stressed with everything going on with school, work, and the Kappa Sisters and it doesn't seem to be getting any easier. Also, the winter is really starting to bum me out and I am so ready for sun and blue skies. So My new motto is, "Yes I can help you, but not right now!" I need to stop putting things off to take care of other things that should be able to wait. I need to get myself organized and stop stressing, because stress is not the amount of your load, it is how you react to it. SO...

Making myself happy, project #1:

You know what would make me really happy? If I could have one day to catch up on everything, maybe not homework, but more on my personal life. Like cleaning my room would be so great for me right now. I wold also love to do my laundry, its not that it is getting done because my mom does it, but to me laundry is so relaxing and I would love to have all my clothes clean!

{OVERALLS?}

2010-01-21T09:14:00.000-08:00

By definition an overall is: a type of garment which is usually used as protective clothing when working. Some people call an overall a "pair of overalls" by analogy with "pair of trousers".

Okay, so overalls are meant to work in? Why do people wear them to school? and in 2010 at that. I wore them when I was a little kid and I thought that they went out around 1995, but supposedly not, people are still wearing them in the hallways of UVU... HMMM? I don't want to be mean, but if you wear overalls as a fashion statement I am not going to take you seriously.

Jersey Shore

2010-01-20T18:25:00.001-08:00

I don't care what they have done and what the media says, I love this show. Not because they are smart, cute, or if they can act even a little bit; I watch it because it is so dang entertaining!! The people are a group of italian americans that share house during the summer months, full of the “hottest, tannest, craziest guidos.” Fists are pumping on the dancefloor and fists are flying as couples get into punchups. This show may be lame, crude, and idiotic to some, but let me tell you: after this season people will be quoting it for a long time.

The characters and their famous sayings:

Angelina "Jolie" (no longer on the show)-- Claims to be the Kim Kardashian of Staten Island.

Jenni "J-Wow" -- Absolutely no self control, has an idiot BF

Nicole "Snookie" (My favorite)-- She "invented the freakin' poof!"

Sammy "Sweetheart"-- "They don't call me Sammy Sweetheart for nothin"

Mike "The Situation"-- Got his nickname because his abs are so ripped they are a "situation."

DJ Ronnie D-- Not only is he R.I.'s most famous DJ, but he has a tanning bed in his house and he does his hair twice a day.

Ronnie-- Is the number one brawler in the house. (A terrible dance, but so entertaining to watch)

Vinnie-- So quiet, there is nothing about him that stands out!

Okay so don't judge me that I watch Jersey Shore, its not like there is anything else on!

WE'RE BACK

2010-01-07T15:07:00.000-08:00

WE'RE BACK, no I don't mean the awesome dinosaur movie that I loved in the '90s, I mean that the semester has started and I am not too happy! The stale air and packed hallways are a little over whelming, but i'm ready to get into it. Next week is rush week for the Kappa Sisters and I have classes all day on tuesdays and thursdays; I HAVE ZERO TIME. on the positive side, I am finally starting to get a solid set of friends and it has made school so much more pleasant experience, but I still do miss Dixie. haha okay thats all for now!!

PEACE
