Help me Obi Wan Kenobi! You're my only hope!!

Ahh Star Wars. Some of the best movies ever made. The last 3 anyway. The ones that came later were mostly bunk. Hee hee hee It's so much fun just to watch and laugh. At midnight. With my pops. Good times. 5....4.....3.....2.....1.....Blast off!!! :P

Man I should update more than once a week I think....because then I would remember more of what happened during the week I think. Man I don't really even remember what days I worked.

Monday I worked I think......ya. I did. Then went home and did something of other that was really interesting and fun I'm sure. Hee hee.

Tuesday was much the same. Actually I worked from eleven to ten thirty I think. Eww. I hope not to have too many more of those days.

Wednesday I had off...............what did I do? I think I waste too much time sometimes. Oh oh I remember! I went to Logan with my mother. I slept in the van while she went to class then we went shopping. Yay for shopping! We went to Old Navy and got stuff for Jodie's birthday and also some tank tops that were on sale. Then at Ross I found a really cute new dress for really cheeeeep. I love it when that happens! I don't remember what I did after that. Uhh........I think I went over to Cali's and helped her with Math for her final on Monday.

Thursday I worked in the afternoon.....and didn't really do much in the morning....I'm starting a new jeans quilt for my bed on account of the one I have being too small and also ripping. I think I started it that day. I also went and bought the fabric. Its really cute, green with flowers.

Friday after work I went to Logan with my family and Cali to shop some more and then a choir concert for Madison HS and Mountain crest. It was really cool. Madison sang some of the same songs they sang for the concert they did with the college chiors back in Idaho. My cousin Becky is in that choir which is why we went. Also I made my video that day. I hope that works out. It will be fun if it does!

Saturday I mostly did chores and worked. Messed around. Stuff like that. Yay. I don't know why I don't really remember.

Today I went to the singles ward for the first Sunday. I think It'll be ok as long as I can get my two friends to get along with each other. Grrph. We had turkey and mashed potatoes for dinner which tasted like heaven. Then I watched Mulan with Jodie and we laughed at some of the more ridiculous things that happen. Its fun just being able to do things like that. Its what I miss most about home I think. Then we did DDR until late. And now here I am. Watching Star Wars with my padre. Hee hee hee ok I'm done. We'll see if I update before next Sunday.

How to make my life sound interesting.......

Time seems to go by in spurts. It's either super fast, or excruciatingly slow. I can tell it's going to be a looooooong summer. Emily will be at school, Nyssa has her internship, lots of my flute friends are in school in the summer, and Amber is working at this Ranch thing in Wyoming. But I'm stuck in Utah selling chicken. And tacos. It's not that I'm not happy to be home, I really am! But right now, with my sisters still in school, Cali still in school my mother still in school for goodness sake...I get kinda lonely. Also I never have a car. So tomorrow I have to walk to work at its like a 35 min walk. Not looking forward to it.

My week went pretty good, I worked Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday. That night I slept over at Cali's house and then went to Weber with her on Friday. She only had a Math class so it was cool. We found Alex and some other people (at the chess club table...hee hee) and talked to them for awhile then went to the mall, where we tried on dresses again. Dillards is probably getting sick of us trying on prom dresses and then not buying anything. Hee hee I told the lady we were looking a bunch of different places, and we would come back when we'd made a descision. And we came back, but we didn't buy anything. Hee hee the pics are on facebook as usual. Also I bought some really nice purple sparkly nail polish from hot topic and also we got some stick on tatoos from one of those 75 cent machienes that gives you a little bubble. So much fun. When we got home Jake came over and I hung out with them for as long as I could stand and then went home.

Saturday was kinda boring. I did chores.....worked in the yard with my pops.....oh and we watched seven pounds that evening. It was kinda fun especialy since I'd seen it and they hadn't, which does not happen very often.

Sunday I descided to start going to the single's ward with Cali, but when we got there the place was empty and Cali suddenly remembered that it was stake conference. So we raced out to the church in Perry and was like 20 min late so we had to sit outside on one of the couches. Alex found us and sat with us for awhile. It was fun but I didn't listen very much like I should have. Hee hee.
This evening we went to Antelope island as a family so that Rena could see the Great Salt Lake. I stuck my finger in it for the first time, which is sad considering I've lived in Utah all my life. It was really pretty but also full of bugs. Rena got like three mosquito bites. They shouldn't be out until like May. Bleeeeech.
And now it's late, and I'm kinda tired. And I need to go to bed so I can be all cheerful selling chicken tomorrow. Eww.

Why are you lying?? (Because I have to!) But your pants will catch fire!!!

Ahh home sweet home. Back in good 'ol Utah.
I'm home for the summer to sell chicken and tacos. And you want to know the worst part???? I've already been back to work. I wasn't home for 24 hours before I was selling chicken. But the good thing is they'll put me on full time so that's good. Hopefully I can make enough money for college next year. It's good to be home. It really is. I get to see my family, I get to see Cali (even though she's always hanging all over her boyfriend) and I don't have to worry about classes.

My finals went pretty well I think....lets see, I last wrote on Tuesday I think....or Monday I think I wrote about juries...man it's weird to think about being in Idaho when I'm home. It's like two different worlds. Umm umm Tuesday I had my woodwind methods playing final on the bass clarinet..I think it went well, then dance then an ear training sight singing test which I did well on. I am done with ear training forever!! It's so exciting! We got t-shirts for it too. It's great. Then I went out and celebrated with Marisa by going to a Thai restaurant and going to Broulim's and buying peeps. Then I did homework for a long time, then went to my dance final....then went over to Marisa's and watched the new Will Smith movie Seven Pounds. It's really good. One of those that you don't really get what's going on until then end and you go, OH!! Now I get it! Also it has my name in it. But I die so that's a bummer.

Wednesday was my last day of WW methods. We did breathing gym until the room was spinning, then I took an ED 200 final (write the history of American education and also what you think about it) and then I had a theory final, then New Testament. I took that final too then pretty much did nothing the rest of the day. It was great. Oh, and I went over to Chris's house (the one going to Washington on his mission) and we had pasta and were generally ridiculous. It was really fun. Then we went to the park to swing even though it was really late and also really cold. But it was way fun.

Thursday I pretty much packed all day along with taking my last final, the ear training written test. NOW I was really done with ear training. Phew! So then I packed some more, then I went to dinner with Amanda, and then was pretty bored for the rest of the day. I think I watched two episodes of Heroes that day.

Friday was boring until my family came and picked me up. I finished helping Nyssa and Emily pack, and said goodbye. Amber, Rena, Jodie and my parents came to get me. We went to Lynn's, then the Watkins where they made me play my flute song for them. It's fun to hang out with Becky though. Then we went to Wingers with Lynn and also Coldstone. Yum. Then we went home. Jodie, Rena, and I played Twilight 20 questions the whole way home, because we're just that cool. And also Jodie got Rena hooked on Twilight. Now she's in love with Edward Cullen just like the rest of us. :) I slept on the couch Friday night on account of everyone piling a bunch of boxes on my bed.

Saturday was great, I woke up like 10:30. Went to Wal-Mart to see Cali, then I had to work 'cuz Amber inadvertantly vollunteered me for it. But I only had to work 'til four so it was ok. Plus we kind of worked out my schedule. I went to a family party of Cali's in the evening with her and Jake. It was fun. I'm hoping I'll be able to get along with him there all the time. Also I hope she realizes that sometimes I want it to be just me and her. Ok enough of that. It was fun. Then I came home and did taxes with my father where I realized that my social security number is wrong on my Arbys W-2. Blerg what a mess. So we'll have to fix it somehow.

Today was Easter!! Yay! I went to my home ward and realized that I'm going to go to the singles ward from now on because Dad only comes half the time and mom's in the nursery so I won't have anyone to sit with. Plus I don't want to teach primary very badly. I came home and fell asleep which was excelent then went to Webbs. Quite enjoyable. Now I'm home writing this. I'll probalby dance tonight, and perhaps watch Mulan which Rachel loaned me. Yay. Ok. I hope my summer is an interesting one. We'll see I guess......toodles!!

What's brown and sticky? A stick.

Oh man. Last Sunday feels like AGES ago. So much has happened. Not that any of it is really interesting or anything, but a lot has been going on. A lot. Lot lot lot.

It is now finals week and my life is getting pretty crazy., though my classes are slowly dropping out one by one. I haven't had flute choir in ages and university and symphonic band are kaput too on account of us already having the concerts for them. Tomorrow I'll be done at11:15 but I have to study for two huge tests I have on Wednesday but on Wed I get out at 10:15 when I'm done with both of them. No. I lied. I have new testament. I get out at 11:30 AND to top that off I don't even really have to go to class Thursday just take one final. Hee hee hee.!!! I have to pack pack pack Thurs and Friday at around 6 my fambily will be here to get me! We leave Saturday bright and early. Well maybe not early. But bright!!!!

That is my future, and I'm looking forward to it. Here's what's been happening.
That oscar thing I talked about that Monday wasn't too bad. The chicken was really good and I ate way too much dessert. mmmmmm

Tuesday.....uhhh I did some stuff.....oh my friend Marisa and I started coloring these geometric patterns instead of paying strict attention in ear training and theory.....it's really fun. I've done like four so far.....keeps me entertained. That might have been the day I went over to her house and watched Martian child and colored. It was fun.

Wednesday.....I know I rehearsed with Aunt Pam one of these days......I practiced a lot.....ate cheese.......or not, don't remember.....uhm...I don't know but I'm sure I did important things anyway.

Thursday was my symphony band concert and my pops came up to see it. It was great. He got here at around 3, I think. He went to see Lynn while I practiced ear training, then we went to the Watkins, Aunt Pam and I performed for him, and they gave us dinner. And it was really good too. Like barbecue pork and homemade bread mmmmmm The concert went really well, and then I went on a walk with my pops to the temple. It was kinda weird walking around campus with him, kinda like giving someone a tour of my life.

Friday I did the math of my practice hours and realized that I needed 8 more hours to get an A for flute lessons, so I devised a practice plan to make it so, though I couldn't do any more that day because of white glove clean checks. Nyssa and I cleaned the kitchen. I spent about two hours cleaning out our fridge. Kinda gross, but the results are satisfying.

Saturday was conference, and just about every minute I didn't spend watching conference I spent doing homework and practicing. I also went to the Watkins and rehearsed. Conference was really good too by the way.

Sunday kinda just felt like an extension of Saturday because I spent the time I wasn't watching conference doing homework and practicing. I snuck into the snow and did it even though technically we're not supposed to. I stayed up 'til like 1:30 finishing my woodwind methods binder. I got really crazy, but it was fun.

MONDAY!!! Juries....at 9:20 right after my woodwind methods final. But it went really well even though Bro. Holman made me play thirds which I wasn't expecting. I ran around with Marisa all day, and in University band we watched our concert which caused me to buy a cd of it.....uhm and tomorrow I have an ear training test and a dance final. Wish me luck!
I'm really tired from lack of sleep so I'm gonna go to bed now. Bye.
