Summer depression is setting in.....or something.

Sigh. It has been a loooooooooooooooooong summer. And I still have a month to go. Part of me can't WAIT for summer to get over, and other parts of me really don't want it to end. Also I'm having trouble coping with the fact that my best friend has replaced me, but I don't have anyone to replace her. So I spend a lot of days alone or with my family. On the upside, I'm spending lots of quality time with my sisters.

Speaking of quality time with my sisters....last weekend I went to a secondhand serenade concert with them and it was EXCELLENT. Possibly the funnest day of summer so far. It was at Thanksgiving Point which is like 20 mins away from Provo, and about 30 mins or so past South Salt Lake if you care. It was an outdoor performance so we just put a blanket out on the grass. We weren't that close to the stage though we did walk up as close as we could when secondhand serenade actually started singing so we could be with the group that was jumping up and down and belting out the songs insead of in the back where the people were mostly making out on thier blankets. :) A group called Single File performed first (they were ok......) then We Shot the Moon who was better (and they gave us free samples of their new CD which is pretty good) Then a band called Parachute who's song "she is love" is apparently really popular on the radio although I don't really like it. Hee hee ok. Then at like 9:30 (it started at 7) secondhand serenade actually started and it went til 11. Man I had so much fun it was great. And thanks for letting me rant about it for a really long paragraph.

Seriously nothing else has happened this summer. And nothing else is planned. I don't even get to go to peach days because its a week later on account of Labor Day being a week later on account of September starting on a Tuesday. Usually Peach Days is the last weekend before I go up, but its the weekend after this year. Bummer. And I was kinda planning on being in the Peach Queen Pagent (for the experience and also cuz my job would have sponsored me) but I guess thats out.

I am going to go to drive my mommy to Salt Lake on Friday so she can get her chemo, and since it takes like 4 hours my Aunt Wendy is going to take me (and Jodie) to lunch and also perhaps shopping if we're lucky. So I guess that'll be fun.
K thats it. Bye

Update!!


Heeeeeeey there folks! It's an update!!!
Pretty much my life is about chicken and tacos and stupid stupid drama right now. But thats ok.
Lets see.......
Well I went to Heber with Cali last weekend to go shopping and also a family reunion. The shopping was really fun, the reunion was really boring especially since it wasn't even my family. To alleviate the boringness Cali and I took like a billion pictures which are, of course up on facebook. So go look at them if you want. Also, maybe I'll stick one up here. Might as well.We're nerds I know, but life is so much more fun that way. I know I'll stick up the one of us with the gigantic Stormtrooper made of Legos. He was quite the guy.

K what else? Well there's the whole wedding drama thing, which I guess is just panning out the way most do with lots and lots of drama. But I don't know if I've said but I get to throw the shower which I am sooooo excited about. I'm going to do it in my (well not MY but my parents? K whatev you get the point) backyard cuz it's real big. Not sure what we're going to do yet, games, or whatnot but it's going to be awesome! Planned for the last Sat in August.

I did go see Harry Potter though not on opening night or anything. Like everyone I've talked to LOVED it, but I actually didn't like it that much. I really liked the 5th one so maybe my expectations were too high. The thing was that it didn't really ever have any action. Or maybe it didn't seem like it because I've read the books and I know whats going to happen. Someone ahead of me got mad cuz I was getting bored and when they were in the cave I practically shouted "Don't touch the water!" Also the Inferi looked like Gollum. I kept expecting them to go my precious! Hee hee. Also I was mad they skipped the whole battle at the end. And instead of acting everyone just stood around awkwardly. Ok fine I'll stop criticizing. I told Jodie I'd go again with her so I'm giving it a second chance.

What else? Oh. I officially made my nerd status go up 7 points by purchasing Star Trek 1-4 from Kimber for 20 dollars. I didn't really like 2 but for 20 bucks it was worth it. Ahhhhhhhhhh. If that stupid movie had never come out I would not be wasting so much of my time on this. Oh well. I usually get really obsessed for awhile and then I'm done. Shouldn't be much longer 'til I'm done.

K well that's all I can think of. Hmmm last night I went to a potluck in the park with my sisters and my mama, (who is doing really well despite the fact she's now a baldy. I totally thought she'd cave and buy a wig but she didn't! She's awesome!!!!) and then came home and just hung out with them. It was nice, I haven't done that it quite a while.
K well I guess I'm pretty much done. Have fun y'all and I'll see if I can't remember to do this a little more often.
Bbbbbyyyyyyeeeeee

Back to the usual as you can see.....

Sigh.
It's been forever since I've updated this. I really need to. Life is life is life is life. Same as usual I guess. Today I went to work 11-4 and then at 6 they called me in til 11:00. Things like that happen way to often to me although I really need the money.
Umm something huge huge huge huge that has happened is that Cali is engaged to Jake now and I'm her maid of honor. I'm really happy for them but it is so much work! Holy cow! And I'm not even the one getting married. Also there is way too much drama. I think when I get married drama is going to be illegal. The date is set for Oct 3 so I'm gonna have to come down for the wedding, and also tons of other things that first month. I really hope school won't be too crazy.
Speaking of which I can't even register for the bloomin' classes I need to and I really need to get it figured out soon. Sigh. It's just hard to think about school when there's so much else to think about.
Oh Rena went home that was sad. We really miss her. Uhhhhhh what else? I've spent a lot of time walking with my dad, ddr-ing with Jo, and watching way too much star trek to be considered normal.
Tomorrow and Saturday I'm going to be attending a massive family reunion on my mother's side of the family. I don't think all of my moms brothers and sisters have gotten together in a very long time so it's going to be quite the reunion.
Oh also my mom is doing really well. She had her first bout of chemo a few weeks ago and her hair is starting to fall out a little bit. But she staunchly refuses to by a wig and says she's going to wear scarves the whole time. I think she's going to cave. After chemo there's going to be radiation every m-f for like 3 weeks. She'll be done in like October. Sigh. Man I've been sighing way too much. I should be more cheerful. :P :)
Ok I'm done. Sooner than last time I hope.
