Formal 2009

I love Alpha Phi... a lot.
Formal was a ton of fun this year! I had an awesome date. Jonathon is such a good sport and a lovely person for taking so many pictures for me! I feel bad though, I wanted to talk to everyone and him, but I felt like I had to constantly ignore someone!
Also I'd like to say that I hate when people tell you to do something and then they go and do exactly what they told you not to do. WHAT THE HECK!? REALLY?!???!!? PLEASE TAKE YOUR OWN ADVICE. That's all I'd like to say on that matter... I feel better now.
Hannah, I miss you.
It's one in the morning. I want to be in bed. Instead I'm in the back room of our house on our guest bed. It's really quite frustrating when you want to go to bed, like REALLY want to go to bed, but you can't. Like you physically can not do it. I feel like I'm a patient person, but not when you mess with my rest.It's like this terrible cycle. I get tired and want to go to sleep, but then I can't, and then when I wake up I'm so tired and grumpy cause I didn't get enough sleep that I'm angry all day and then when I want to go to bed later and I can't then I get even more grumpy. Of course I can control my own feelings, but this is my blog danggit. I do wha i wan!ahhaahahhaha oh dear.
Alicia. I love you. Please don't leave, your my sanity.
I can't wait to go home. I love Cedar, I really do. But i miss my car, my job, my family and my dog way too much.
Okay well enough complaining Kady. Here are some pics from formal! Enjoy!
This is Morgan, Kaily and I (not in that order). I love Morgan! I'll miss her!

My Bomb.com date and I! You wish you were this cool :p

Ian and I... oh Ian.

I'm trying to be a sexpot.

My Sincerest Apologies

First of all why do red grapes taste WAY better than red grape juice?
Second of all I'm so sorry for not updating my blog in FOREVER. I haven't been like overly busy I just haven't felt like updating it. But as I read Shar bear's blog I was inspired. In order to make this post make a little sense I'm going to work backwards chronologically.
Last night was Relay for Life and it was SO MUCH FUN!We had a little Greek party up by the torch and watched the show Greek and played wii and had a bbq.Seriously, so fun. And when it was my turn to go on the track at 11pm I RAN THE WHOLE HOUR. I didn't even think I could do that! And, okay it was more like jogging for an hour, but i was still pretty happy with myself at the end of my hour. While I was running I kept thinking about cancer (cause that's what Relay for Life is about... well finding a cure for it) and I just thought about what a strange thing it is. I love this picture of Jonathon and I... except he looks like he's going to kill someone... eeek!

Here's another picture from last night of Shar and I and our dear friend Nick Adams. Love him to death.

Wednesday and Thursday night Shar and I went hot tubbing. We went at Stadium way and now we're both pretty sure we have some disease on our butts. Overall, I would not recommend hot tubbing there... but it was fun!
Oh also on Thursday Nick L. and I went to rescue Kaily and Shannon from the mountains by La Fiesta. They decided to go on a hike, and didn't realize it was going to snow! Ps it's been freezing cold and kinda snowy all week here :(. So Nick got her car out of the mud the first time then on the way down she REALLY got stuck and we had to call Nick's Dad. It took about two hours to get them completely off the mountains. It was kinda fun though... at least I had fun.
Tuesday night, wow I really can't remember what I did.
Monday night- oh this night was kinda eventful... sorta. I went over to Gage's house and watched Jeopardy and I am Legend and played with roommates adorable dog, that looks kinda like a tiger! It's so cute! Monday I also went to the zoo with Shar and her family! It was so fun, except I REALLY hate monkeys. They creep me out and I just don't like the way the look at me... stupid monkeys. I probably had a bad experience with one as a child... but I don't remember it. I do however like the giraffes.

I spent our long Easter weekend up at Sharlene's house. She has a total of six siblings including herself, but it was still a lot for me. I
loved that there was always someone we could do something for or someone we could talk to, but I got a little overwhelmed on actual Easter when her whole family plus babies came. It was fun but I felt a little out of place and I missed my own family like cccrazy. Everyone was incredibly nice and welcoming and I really like her little sister Sabrina. She was funny. I got to meet pretty much her ENTIRE family, and so here's a picture of her lil Sis Sabrina, Me, Shar and Her G'ma.

The weekend before Easter I got to attend the Sigma Chi formal in Mesquite! I went with Jonathon and he is just such a sweetheart. I love spending time with him, he is just SO funny... and he thinks my stories are funny, in reality they're not. I appreciate whatever laughter I get though.

Nothing else really epic happened before Easter... that I can remember. So once again, my apologies. I promise I'll be better.

Slow Mo

This picture has nothing to do with anything I'm about to say, but we always say no one reads your blog if you don't have a picture... so that's my picture^. It's from when I got my nails done. I was being a raptor/dinosaur thing!
Anyways this blog is short. I just wanted to share about how I went running yesterday (When it was snowing!... I'm hardcore like that) and I twisted my ankle. I'm supposed to be in yoga right now, but I'm not because of my ankle and I'm a little sad. I like yoga!
Alright, that's all I wanted to say. I'm in the library supposedly working on homework. Peaceeee Out!

Spring Break

WHERE TO EVEN BEGIN!
First of all let's start with a preface. I've decided as a person that I often let my emotions govern my actions. This isn't always the way things should work since sometimes my emotions aren't very logical. That being sad I've decided to make a Pro and a Con list of my Spring Break (And i just loveeee making lists :) )
We'll start with the bad and end with the good
Cons:
1. I felt sick at the beginning of the week
2. I spent WAY too much money
3. My parents may kill me because i have spent so much money
4. I missed my friends in Cedar
5. I feel a little guilty for not going home
6. I've become terrible at staying in contact with people
7. I have a lot of laundry to do
8. I feel in love with California


Pros:
1. I love California
2. I got to go to the beach everyday

3. I almost got tan

4. I laughed hard
5. I slept a lot
6. I read a whole book
7. I had amazing food
8. I bowled a lot (this is also a Con cause I suck so bad at bowling)
9. I got to cuddle with two cute doggies
10.I got to explore beaches
11.I took a lot of walks
12.I went swimming everyday (I LOVE swimming)
13.Gina, Michelle and Ash visited me, Alpha Phi's are everywhere!

All Over You

I'm in the library again. I realized that Hannah was probably getting a little upset since I hadn't done a post in awhile. Nothing is really new in my life though. This week has been insanely BUSY! I've been staying on top of things school wise, which has been a major pain the bootay. Kaily and I have had practice for dancing with the stars, we're back up dancers for Timian and Blake (they're so good!). And Hannah I know what you're thinking... me... on stage... dancing?! BAD IDEA... but not really I don't do a lot so it's okay.
I don't even remember what happened Monday, I know yesterday I went to the gym with Alicia at 8am, which is early for Tuesdays, since I don't normally wake up until 9 on Tuesdays and Thursday. Then Alicia and I went around Cedar to take pictures for her photography class. Then I had English, Yoga and then I randomly ended up going to Maggie Moo's with Rachel, Kelly and Nick. It was fun, but then I came back and had to go to somewhere... Then dance practice at 7 which went until 9. Then Kaily and I had to go to the Phi house to get stuff then FINALLY I got to go home. Kaily slept over and Nick brought us hot chocolate- so cute! And we were all up until midnight! Needless to say I'm tired and a little grumpy today. I did get my eyebrows waxed though, so it'sall good! And I did my online homework assignments so I won't have to do them over spring break- yeah ya! Sorry about the lack of pictures right now, I even have a video to put up! I'll do it when I get home.

"It's Just SO Stupid!!"

(Sorry no picture! I'll add one later!)
There's this really smart kid in two of my classes. His name is Bram and he has purple hair, sometimes wears cowboy boots and in general most people tend to shy away from him cause they think he is so strange. Really I think he's just sick of being boring and therefore tries to jazz things up a little bit. Anyway he reads a lot and is really smart, in English he is constantly saying "It's just SO STUPID!" I often reflect upon this statement. It's only an opinion. But tonight I'm going to blog about somethings that I think are stupid. I know some of it may be hypocritical if you know me, but just because I do it doesn't mean I don't think it's stupid.
1. Drugs (the kind with bad connotations)
2. Spending massive amounts of time on facebook
3. Unnecessarily texting people "ok"
4. the bachelor
5. reality t.v.
6. laziness
7. math (only because I HATE it, but really I respect those that can do it)
8. Science " "
9. Judgemental people
10. Doing bad things even when you know you're not supposed to and it'll just make your life stink a little
11. drinking ^ see above
12. not cleaning your room, unless you like messy things (i do not)
13. not doing your laundry and then wanting to cry just a little when you have nothing to wear
14. not loving people
That's about it. Last night I watched the documentary Happy Valley. I thought it was amazing. Kaily watched part of it tonight and didn't like it. She said she already knew all this stuff. It just makes me sad. I wish people would just listen to their gut when it says, "DO NOT DO THIS."
In other happy news, Sharlene and I are continuing our workout plan and both feel a BUTTLOAD better. Alicia i still leaving (I lied, this is not happy news). And I... well I am just rolling along like a cheese wheel on ice. I've been missing my Mom a lot, we don't talk as much as we used to. I don't even think that it's because we're so busy or anything, we're just never in the right place at the right time to talk, but I am so grateful when we do.
Sometimes I think I'm a really tacky person.

Jumbalaya

Today's post is going to be a Jumbalaya. Yes, I do realize that's a southern dish made with shrimp, but I think it should have more meaning than that. It should also mean a plethora of random collections of thought. I should make my own dictionary byhean. With that let's proceed (ps it just took me like 5 tries to spell proceed right... oh dear, my brain is going to mush!).
First of all, don't sleep with boys (once again, not like thhhhat). Just don't do it, it makes you feel strange and it's not worth it, because is the end that boy isn't worth it. There really are no exceptions, remember, your the rule. So as you might have guessed Travis and I are no longer a non-couple, but I am relieved and happy. It sounds tacky to say, but I am so okay with being just by myself it's crazy! Don't get me wrong, I loveeeee holding hands, and kissing and growing close to someone, but I wasn't feeling that with him. As much fun as he was, I really felt like there wasn't a whole ton of purpose to being his non-girlfriend.
And I know I say this ALL the time, but I JUST LOVE MY ROOMMATES. They make me laugh and think and are just soooo fun! Sharlene is just SO FUNNY (lol). We have late night talks, I mock her stories (sorry Shar, you just make it soooo easy :p), and pretty much everything is funny around her, oh and I love working out with her. Alicia is just a sweetheart, how I ever made important decisions without her I'll never know. She is so wise lol. And Kassidy, with her sarcastic remarks, never fails to make me laugh or think.
I can't even take a picture without Laughing! And of course I couldn't have made it through these past couple of days without Hannah. She's such a wonderful besty. I just wish I could be in Florida with her!! Lucky duck. Or I wish she was here to laugh and talk with me. WHY! are we so far away :(.
I'm also super grateful for John, he bought me lucky charms for my art project on Sunday. I would have been totally lost without him. I don't even mind that he makes me straighten his hair everyday.
I love John... but in a sisterly kind of way
And I love Alpha Phi! I'm doing a lot in my position right now, as Director of Marketing and I love it. I get to attend the Senior Expo's and order pencils and magnets (which sounds dumb, but it really is fun!). I love it and the opportunities it gives me.
So, in conclusion, even though I should be upset or whatever about Travis, Life is still amazingly good! I'm happy :) (take that pessimism)
