Good Quality

Hello blogger lovers so this last Sunday I spent the day with my favorite Brother Greg and his roommates. And can I just tell you that Greg is the best brother I could ever have and I hope I am as good to him as he is to me. I went to his singles ward up at U's institute with him and his roommates. Greg parked kind of in the back because we were kind of late. When we were walking up there is this little slope/hill filled with rocks that you have to walk up or you have to walk around. Since I was wearing heels Greg just picked me up without asking so I didn't ruin my heels or walk around. He just does little cute considerate things and makes sure everyone is happy. Also during church he almost got in a fight for sticking up for his roommate.... which not to be rude sings so BAD but it is hilarious but the guys in front of us didn't haha! Greg is seriously one of kind. These days no boys will ask girls out on a date... it's usually let's "hang out" or "a bunch of us are going to hang out tonight you should come" and then it just ends up enough people to couple off. Greg will ask girls out to date not just to hang out and he really respects the girl he takes out and will not try any funny business. Him and I always laugh about the guys I go out with because it usually ends up the same. Greg's best friend Brad and him tell me I can find a good looking guy but I haven't found a good looking guy with good quality. I hope I can find a guy that has as good quality as my brother. I might be the over protected sister but Tiffany (the girl he is dating) you should feel like the luckiest girl to have catched a good guy like Greg! Well Lovers now you know who I look up to and who my best friend in the world is. Peace Out!

Studying Pays Off


Hello blogger lovers last week I had to drive down to St. George Wednesday night, to wake up the next morning to drive down to Vegas to take a test. Now this test was one of my state boards to allow me to become certified as a respiratory therapist. Ever since I moved back home after finals my parents have pretty much put me in a study lock down. My days would consist of me being woke up at 9:00AM study until about 1 take an hour lunch break and then study some more until about 4 and then have the evening to myself.
Now with all the trouble the NBRC has put me through I was pretty frustrated and just wanted to take my test!! For instance by the time I was able to take my test the majority of the people from my class had taken the first test. I am guessing the people in the NBRC office hate me because I was on the phone with them every day to see if they fixed the problem and let me sign up for my test. Well eventually they fixed the problem and I signed up the first week after the New Year. 2 days before I was suppose to take my test they called me up and told me I had to reschedule. I was like great... but oh well so I signed up for the next possible time which was a week later. A couple days before they called and told me I had to reschedule again and wanted me to wait 2 more weeks. This time I was not only frustrated but Pissed so I was like screw it I will drive to Vegas. The only time I could take it was 9 there. Thankfully my mom went down with me so she could drive while I studied. But I have not got up before 9 since I got home so waking up at 5:30 was a little early for me. But as I took my 3 hour test in a little room where a camera is right in front of your watching your every move plus the stress that this test is $190 and if you fail that is just a waste of money and you will just have to fork it up again. Then after submitting the test and feeling like your heart has just dropped, you have to take another 30 questionnaire survey about taking your test and the facility that you’re in when all you want to know is if you passed your test your not. Then I walked out to the front and I was shaking and the lady asked if I was ok and I told her I was just nervous and wanted to know my results. Then when the results were printing the lady was like do you want me to look and tell you or do you want to just look yourself. I was thinking are you serious I just want to look at them myself because I don't want her to know if I failed haha. So she gave me my results... I PASSED!!! Thank goodness I said a tiny thankful prayer right then and there. I was able to enjoy my weekend. Well Lovers that’s it for now peace out.

HAPPY VALLY


 Hello my blogger friends this past weekend I went up to Happy Valley (Provo for you those who didn't know) to spend the weekend with my best friends Chantel and Pierie. A little background on these two chicas for you guys.

                                                                       
Pierie I knew her and would see her every now and then when she was hanging out with Chantel but I wouldn’t really call her a friend we were more “acquaintances.” Finally around her Birthday in September that is when we really started to become friends.  Ever since then we have been I would say inseparable. We can do the same thing every night and still have fun. We have watched so many movies and went to Del taco and Wendys and Papa Johns that the drive through window people probably recognizes us.  Pierie was my insanity when I just had to get away for a little bit. We have so many memories together like are trips up to Provo, Concert, Boys, snowboarding, test driving cars, and many etc. haha! Thanks P for being such a great friend and always being yourself and not caring about about what other people think and being someone I can rely on!!!!


   




Now for Miss Chantel, the first thing that pops in my head is spontaneous and laughing. Even though she moved back to Provo after the summer I still love this girl. She is our entertainment when we are with her. She can make anything we do fun. Like when we got stuck in her boat of a car up on Provo Mountain some would have freaked out but she made the whole thing Hilareous!  Chantel is the type of friend that makes you feel special every time she sees you. Also with Chan you know whatever you do she will be right there with her camera capturing the whole thing in a big photoshoot that winds up on facebook. Also with Channy there are so many great memories love ya girl!!!!
Friday started with me going down to Provo and Pierie coming up to Provo to meet Chantel in the middle ish. Can I just tell you I need a GPS because i get so lost and about a half hour to a hour later I will find my way around or call someone to get help. Anyways P and I met Chantel and her friend Anna at Chan's new apartment and had exactly 20 minutes to get ready and surprisingly we did it which is a world record for us. We made our way over to the Jersey UVU dance. It was so much fun "white Utah dancing." Now our girl Anna knows how to bust a  move even P thought that cause she was like I love watching Anna right before she passed out. Chan and I took her out and P is so crazy she just wanted to get back in the dance and keep dancing. We went back in danced, sang, jumped and about an hour later while we were jumping up and down P passed out again. Me and Chan took her out and we're like ok we are done but P just wanted to get back in there. Luckily for her sake the dance was ending. (I believe P is anemic and that’s why she passes out.) After the dance we went to Wendys got frostys and went back to Chan's apartment to crawl into our sweats around 1 ish. We talked, laughed and reminisced until about 3:30 ish and apparently pissing off and keeping up Chan's new roommate.
Saturday we woke up and P and Chan went tanning then came back and we got ready in 45 minutes which again is record time to go out to lunch with some friends. We went to Olive Garden with Andy, Rachael, Brandon, and some girl that was with him. ( I met them a while back when I went camping in Levan). Then our friends Steve and Bruce met up with us as well. After some yummy food and catching up we went to Down East so Chan could buy some jeans. Steve picked out this ugly green cardigan ( like V neck button up sweater that an old man would wear) I thought he was totally joking when he showed me this sweater and started laughing. So Chan bought her jeans and Steve Bought his "Ugly cardigan" because it was 50% off haha.  After shopping there Chan had to go to work, so me and P went over to Steve's to watch a movie or aka take a nap. I just love awkward situations... NOT. But I am so thankful for P being there with me even though she took the heat when we didn't want to go to a stupid hockey game for my sake. So we went to Victoria Secret for their semi- annual sale which i picked up some really cute underwear. Then we went to pick up Chan from work because she got off work early and we went to the grocery store to pick up frozen pizza, ice cream, pink lemonade, chips and a redbox (Easy A) to start our night off. Went went back to her apartment and we ate our pizza and chips and went out on her balcony to look at the pool. you know you are in Provo when a guy that just moved there 2 hours before wants to know if you’re in his ward and then finds his way to your apartment without you telling him where you live to come up because he wanted to introduce himself " because he really wants to get to know people and wants to know when our church is,".....CREEPER. Then Steve, Gab, and Mike came over to watch the movie. Now ladies if you ever have the chance ask Mike for a back scratch he will give a massage and a back scratch that is amazing!!! After the movie an intense game of phase 10 was played... sorry Gab you’re not the champion of phase 10 this game.... that would go to Chantel. Then the boys left we talked a little and hit the sack because we were so exhausted. Sunday me and P left and headed back to for the real world to start back up again on Monday. I loved every minute I was with these girls and can't wait for another reunion with these girls. Sorry I don't have any pictures from this weekend yet. Well thats all for now. Peace out lovers!

(P.S. I hate Provo parking it is a Joke.)

STARTING OFF THE NEW YEAR

So this is my first blog so readers bare with me.  2010 was a great year but I can already tell 2011 is going to be even better than last year. A brief overcast of what happened in 2010. I graduated from Dixie State College with my associates of Respiratory Therapy and Associates of Applied Science. I LOVED being down in St. George. I have made so many new friends down there I feel now that I am in Tooele all my friends are down there.  Down at Dixie I have had some pretty AWESOME roommates. First starting my whole “college’ experience with my Best friend Tiffani, Then came along our other Best friend Brittany the next semester. Tiffani moved out and then Teneil came along and lasted about a semester before she moved back home.  Kelsey was our neighbor across the street and her roommate moved out so she moved in with me and Britt. And our last roommate was Shay. So needless to say I have had quite the roommates and I loved all of them. I am excited to see what the new year brings and hopefully just as fun memories as the previous year.

 Now on to the good stuff, to start off New Year I have already had an adventure. Pierie and I hung out because it was my last night before I left back to Tooele. We went over to our friend Danny’s house for game night. We first played scene it and now I watch a lot of movies but this scene it was old movie which I like old movies but not that much haha. It took like a hour or two before we even finished that game. Then around midnight that is when everybody started to show up. There were a few good looking guys that showed up too. They were Kagen, Jake and Billy. Now I was invited over by a boy too so I couldn’t flirt too much. So as the night went on we played some more games blahblahblah then it came time for everybody to leave. P and I said our goodbyes and got in my car to leave when Jake came over motioned me to roll my window down and asked if we wanted to ride down to Mesquite with them to go pick up a truck. I asked if P can go and he was like yeah, and I told him me and P would talk about it and let him know. Since they were “good looking” we thought what the heck it’s just down and back with them no big deal! We walked over to the car and looked in and there was not enough seats for us all so I was like there are not enough seats for both of us(cause Ashley was in the car with the 3 boys) and Kagen pulls me on his lap and told P to get in the car and we would ride down like that. I was like I am not riding the whole way like this so I sat on Jake’s lap. Now at the beginning of the night I thought Jake was cute but not HOT. The car ride down to Mesquite was really fun and we laughed a lot. Kagen all of the sudden was crap I forgot to stop to get gas, after we passed the last exit out of St. George where we could of stopped. But we kept going even though the gas light turned on, I know stupid but at that point we really didn’t care.  So when we were going down the hill he would put the car in neutral and we would just coast and when we would start going up the hill we all had to move back and forth to help the car get up the hill. Then once we got outside of Mesquite in this little town we took the exit thinking hey there has to be a gas station… wrong so we kept going and under the gas gauge it read ZERO miles until the car ran out of gas as we pulled back on the freeway. So we barely made it to Mesquite and into a gas station. One thing I learned even though a car says zero miles until you run out of gas you can make it just a little bit farther. So after we got gas we drove to Kagen’s house to get his truck. Now I thought we would just get his truck and then head back to St. George… wrong. We went inside his house and it was 12:30am Mesquite time so 1:30am our time. I thought maybe give us a tour get a few things and then leave… wrong again. We all talked for a little bit then started a movie. Now around 3:30 am Mesquite time so 4:30 Utah time P received a text from my mom freaking out because I wasn’t answering my phone. I was like crap so I went and found my phone called her back because I guess she had a bad dream about me and went to check on me and I wasn’t home and I wasn’t answering my phone haha. After the movie we headed back to St. George.  I finally around home about 6 in the morning and got woke up around 8 ish to help clean the house and get ready to leave. now if someone asked if I would do that again I would say HECK YES!!! But I have to tell you that was one spontaneous trip to start the new year!!!!!
Well y’all  I know you are probably thinking this was a total novel but once I started typing I couldn’t stop haha. Well I will try and keep you all updated thanks for reading and feel free to comment!!!! I think I am going to like this blogging thing.
