I have only 2 words!!

HELLO BEAUTIFUL!!!

Yes you are seeing the actual poster for NEW MOON and yes the date on the bottom is the 20th of THIS November. HELLS YA BABY!

I Glow In The Dark

Yup that's right, I'm a whitey!!! It sucks butt! But I can't do anything about it except try and tan. Even though I have an amazing job that's going to allow me to get super tan I decided to sit out today. I barely got any darker. However my back is darker. Only one side though. Ya that's right. Somehow I managed to tan only the back right side of my backside lol. I look like a weirdo now but oh well!!!

I have been so stressed out lately its insane. Ya it's mostly my fault because I am a stressful person. I work best under stress and there are very few times ever I'm not worrying about something. But I really have a lot going on. I decided not to go to Dixie. Why you might ask? Well I was given $4000 in loans and scholarships. Seems like a pretty good chunk of change right? WRONG! I registered for 7 credits because the other that I needed were math and english and I hadn't been approved yet. For those 7 credits it would've costed me over $3000. So with the $1000 still in my student account I would've had to but $800 towards my dorm probably $500 for my books and another $1500 minimum for my other credits. Did you do the math? Ya it doesn't add up. So I decided to stay. I'm not sure what I'll do now. Fall semester at UNLV obviously and then who knows..maybe I'll try and leave again or maybe I'll find an apartment here in town. Either way I have to figure out my future and kind of fast all things considered. Next on the to-do list. I need to get in at the Wynn. That should happen soon thank goodness. Good money and nice hours..plus I'll get that tan! Heck Yes baby. I also need to buy a car by the end of the summer get my own phone plan and pay my own car insurance. The stressful thing about everything is it all relies on each other. I can't completely do one thing because each step has to do with the other.

Anyways. Here's the other thing. My mom is psycho. Ya this isn't news for those of you who no me. She's beyond strict sometimes. So today I didn't put the pool cover on. Yup a pool cover. Because of this one incident I am not allowed to see anyone! That's right. Oh and not only that but because I'm not moving my rules are getting stricter. Seems odd right. So now I'm going to try to get out of the dang house. I hate it here. It's ridiculous. That's my life. Right now it sucks ASS. I'm so pissed about tonight. Seriously a pool cover. Get over it mom. Last time I checked you have a beyond out of control child living with you. He gets away with murder and I get away with nothing. I'm pissed. Beyond pissed. Especially because right now I can hear her bad mouthing me to my family in the other room. AWESOME MOM! YOU ROCK! F*CK YOU!

( Have fun sucker bahahaha :-* )

Hormones Suck

Seriously what the freak. Let me tell you a little story. Once while I was a sophomore in high school a crazy lady named Aunt Flow came to visit me. She had visited me previously but I hated her!! Anyways, she decided to visit me but I decided not to let her ruin my weekend. So I went to the movies with my family. We saw Bridge To Tarabithia (great movie!!). The theater was filled with mainly old people and 8 year olds with the exception of me my mom and my brother. Towards the end of the movie something shocking happened and I started to bawl. Not cry my friends, BAWL. Like sobbing making noise I can hardely breath bawl. Anyways I cried and cried until the old lady next to me asked if I would please shut up because I was scaring her grand-daughter. Yikes. Anyways. You may be wondering what this has to do with anything. Well I never cry!! Honestly it rarely happens. Except when Aunt Flow visits me. Then I can't stop crying!!!! I'll cry over happy things, sad things, stupid things, you name it and I'll cry for it. In fact I'm sitting here right now trying to hold back tears because I don't even know why.

Anyways, today I had ANOTHER job interview. This one was for the YMCA. I already got hired at the Wynn but I had nothing better to do today so I figured I'd go check it out. We had a group interview just like at the Wynn except this time there were only half as many people, BUT it took us 2 hours (the Wynn took 30 minutes). Anyways I only talked for a total of 6.5 minutes of the 2 hours. The other 113.5 minutes I tried to figure out who was mormon. It's a fun game sometimes. Like this one kid said he was an Eagle Scout and his last name was Mauer (I know a mormon Mauer who goes to the same school as the dude) anyways then he said he could work on Sunday. So he could be mormon...or not..or a bad mormon!!! BAAA.

After the interview was done and I had determined 5 people in the group were Mo-Mo's they interviewers told us we were all invited back next Wednesday to do a skills test. They started by explaining that we'd have to do some first aid and cpr stuff. I was all for it until they said we would have to do the 300 yd swim again. Holy crap the first time I had to do that I didn't even swim all of the (I cheated..so sue me) and I almost gave up my $90 because I felt like death was upon me. I had seriously never felt such horrible body pain!!!! So I opted out and decided to just stick with my very nice and EASY job at the Wynn. 10.50 an hour to sit in a chair and tan..plus tips if I happen to give an old guy a towel!!! My boss today told me that I probly got hired because I'm cute!!! I refuse to take that as an insult because who wouldn't wanna get paid for that...even if it means I was hired based on looks and not my brains OR personality.

I Hate The Dentist!!!

So I had a dentist appointment this morning. As you can tell by the title I effing hate the dentist. Srsly! They just cause me pain. And they put weird ace funk stuff on my teeth. Last time I went to the dentist they put some weird stuff on my teeth and told me I couldn't eat, drink, or brush for the next few hours. So being the genius that I am I went to the mall thinking no one would see me in the middle of the afternoon on a Thursday!! However, I was dead wrong. I ran into my ex, his friend, and his girl friend. I basically said hi and ran away. So today she tells me she's gonna put the stuff on my teeth again and I got up and left. I wasn't going to school like that.

Anyways I also got a new book today!! I'm excited to read it! OH OH AND!!! I got the job lifeguarding at the Wynn!!! HELLS YA BABY!!!

Though we are commanded to love one another and it is not our decision to choose who we will and won't forgive I think we have the choice to choose who we want in our lives. Unfortunately there are just some people out there that you clash with. It seems like every step of the way there's confrontation. In cases like these its always just easier to accept that person for who they are and let them go. I have found this to be very effective. I forgive the hardships we faced and I have forgoteen them but that does not change our relationship.

Aside from that realization nothing has really been going on lately. I have a job interview at the Wynn Monday at 2. This will be my 3rd interview and most people I've talked to about it think I've got the job which is AWESOME! I've also realized I might be too competitve. When I was younger and totally invovled with soccer I had a nasty habit of running the other girls down. Seriously. I would grab and pull and tear until they fell to the ground and I had the ball. This suprises a lot of people because I hit like a girl and I'm basically a panzy but trust me friends if I get pissed enough you're goin down. Anyways when I was 13 I stopped playing soccer until I was a freshmen. Not far into the season my position was changed and i found myself getting even more competitive. Now instead of being closer to our offensive goal I was on the defensive side and aside from the goalie the last feildsman to stop the opposing team from scoring. During one game another competetive player on the opposite team got a little pushy and I ended up shoving her into the goal post. Nice right. I know. My mom told me thatnight that she thought the old Alix was gone but apparently she wasn't. In fact, I was 10 times worse than I had been when I was younger. A few nights ago Chey and I decided to play a card game in which he killed me at. After the 2nd game I was so irritated that a few cuss words slipped. The next day at work a friend asked me if Chey was competetive. I laughed saying, "maybe but I'm so competetive I think it makes him look pretty mellow." Apparently this is a problem. I should try working on it!!!!

Anyways I'll keep you posted on what happens with the job.

Someone...

...Deleted me as a friend on facebook.

Wanna know how I found out.

Because I care for the people I come in contact with. I had been friends with this person for some time and though we didn't talk much I still wished him well. Occassionally I would visit his profile to make sure everything was going his way and he was still a happy camper! After not seeing his status updates for a while I tried looking him up when I realized I had been deleted.

I must say i'm just a little disappointed. Through good and bad I stayed friends with this person. But it seemed like when I finally got happy he didn't want anything to do with me. Sounds a little hypocritical but that's life. Live and learn right? Right!!

Utah

So I took my first road trip on Saturday. Well it was kind of like a mini road trip but hey it was still fun. Chey and I hit the road Saturday morning to St. George where we will be living very soon. I loved it!! It was so pretty and the weather was so nice! I can't wait to move there. WOOO HOOO. Here are a few pics for your enjoyment!! :)

This was a medal bridge that someone did for their eagle project. If connected these 2 rocks that had a gap in between then that was about 10 feet off the ground. Not very high but I'm so afraid of heights that I had to run across it!!

It's Chey on the other side of the bridge!! He kept creeping down closer to the hole!! It scared the crap out of me.

Me and Chey

My Future Home!!!

Memory

Turn on your iPod and select shuffle. Write a memory the comes to mind with the song: where you were when you first heard it, who it reminds you of, etc. Do this for 10 songs and have fun visiting memory lane!!

Kungfu Fighting (The Village People)

This song make me think of my best friend and her brother in the 7th grade. We would turn this on and pretend kunfu fight each other!! It was so much fun!! I also danced to this song sonic when we were on the church history tour..I have a video!!! Look!! You can't here the song playing but just know it was there :)

Barbie Girl (Aqua)

When I was in 4th grade I went to safekey in the morning and one of the teachers did karaoke in fridays. Every time me and 3 other girls would sing this song. We always hogged the karaoke machine cuz everyone else was to big of a panzy to get up there and sing lol.

There She Goes (The La's)

This is one of the songs in the parent trap (the Lindsey Lohan version) it was my FAVORITE movie when I was younger!!!

Potential Breakup Song (Aly and AJ)

This song was the first track of a breakup CD my best friend made me when my ex and I broke up. I used to blast this in my car whenever he pissed me off, it still reminds me of what retards guys are.

Hey There Delilah (Plain White T's)

My last boyfriend made me Cd's every now and then and this song was on the first one. It was before the song became really popular. Now that everyone listens to it I can't stand the song.

I Caught Fire (The Used)

When my best friend turned 16 she had a big party in her back yard and the DJ made CD's for everyone and this song was on it. It's in my Freshmen Year playlist on my iPod.

My Shiny Teeth and Me (Chip Skylark...from the Fairly Odd Parents)

Me, my best friend, and the assistant manager of could stone used to sing this at work. The song is hilarious. Totally stupid and pointless but still funny!

Crank That (Soulja Boy)

This was the only song that I danced to at my Senior Homecoming. We were there for literally 5 minutes and then we left. It was also on the senior slideshow I made so at the reunion everyone will remember what goofs we were and what weird music we listened to.

Crush (David Archuleta)

This song came on the radio when Shelby and I went to the temple. Her bf's mom said it reminded her of SHelby and her bf, but I couldn't listen to it without puking until 2 weeks later when I started talking to Chey..then I loved the song and now everytime I hear it I think of Mr. Amazing.

Online (Brad Paisley)

This song reminds me of Brock. He can get girls but he's such a tech nerd that it reminds me of him lol.

Sad Day

Once upon a time there was a girl who had a very bad day. From the moment her day started everything just seemed to go wrong. Though she had a few laughs the over all feeling in the girl's heart was of sadness. "If I only I could cry" she thought "then maybe I'd feel better." But instead she was tortured with one grim event after another making her heart heavier by the minute. The girl felt alone, scared, vulnerable, and as if she were waiting for heartbreak to come. Luckily the girl had very wise friends who helped to remind her that everything would be ok and today was just one bad day amidst many many good ones.

UGH

Ya I'm posting again people, get over it. I always view my blog after I post to look over what I just wrote but today when I did it I couldn't stop staring at that picture at the top of my blog. Look at it!!! Isn't it cute.. Yup just darlin. K well I miss some things in that picture. I miss that green jacket. I wore that thing constantly!! But the day we took that picture I left it at the park. So sad!!! It is forever lost in the land of Lone Mountain Park. And my hair. Many of you probably don't realize but I chopped 6 inches of my hair and dyed it blonde. And you don't know this because since I cut and dyed it (4 weeks ago) I have yet to take a SINGLE DANG picture. Ugh. Anyways. I love my color but I wish I could have my length back. I love my hair long. I looklike a fat head when it's short. But anyways. Hopefully it grows fast! Ok that's all I wanted you to know :)

Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow

I have nothing really to talk about but I am bored out of my mind and I need to find something to do before work. Oh dreadful work. So I'm going to blog about what I did yesterday, what I'm doing today, and what I'll do tomorrow or anytime in the near future. Yippy Skippy. If you want to close this window instead of reading please exit now. I will not be offended..no one reads this thing anyways. So yesterday was a very boring day!! I wanted to pound my head into the wall it was so boring. I went and saw Chey yesterday morning. After that I basically had no one to talk to because he was visitng with his brother. So I ended up staring at my phone for about 6 hours. Then I went to Shelby's. We had a yummy dinner and watched the singles ward. Fun stuff. Then I went back to Chey's where we basically didn't do anything. Just played on the computer for a bit. Today I have to work. BOOOO!!!! I have to leave at 12 (even though I don't work till 1) so I can go get my check and cash it to put gas in my car before it breaks down. WHoopdy Doo. Luckily my boss is letting me off 4 hours early to come home and eat dinner with the missionaries. Then I'm gong to Chey's I think. He's baking. He..not We...I've given up. Not to brag but I'm a pretty good cook and for a long time I thought I was a dang good baker to. But apparently my baking instincts have gone to pot since I started dating Chey. Seriously something goes wrong everytime I try to bake something when he's around. I must get distracted by his incredible good looks. So I've given up. I'll cook him dinner for the rest of our lives and he can bake me dessert. Sounds like a good trade to me. Anyways. Tomorrow is Saturday and I have to work and then I'm going to Chey's (SHOCKING!!) for his brother/dad's party where I won't really know anyone but there will be food. Suh-weet. The only other things I have planned for a while are school (3 weeks of class and 1 week of finals left), trying to find a new job, a 4 month anniversary soon, going to Dixie one Saturday, and that's about it. I live an exciting life people. Don't hate.

People Make No Sense

I'm coming to a close of my DI days. Yes my friends that's right. My official last day ever at that dreaful place is May 12th...unless I can somehow make it out sooner (keep your fingers crossed) Hopefully soon I will be getting $10 and hour to sit in a chair and tan. Suh-weet! Anyways back to the reason for the title. So DI does returns, don't get to excited we only do them on clothing and it has to be within 7 days of the purchase. Anyways this old couple comes in and hands me 2 bags filled with $20 worth of clothing they wanted to exchange. BTW the whole time I'm procssing the clothes the guy keeps saying how much he loves DI..."I just love DI, I love this shirt, I love your bags (ya the plastic ones..I know..weird) So I add everything up and I go to make sure the date is within 7 days. I see that the date is April 8th (that's today people). What sense does this make. This guy had enough time to drive down to DI for the SECOND time in 24 hours to return clothes YET he didn't have enough time to try everything on. HMMMMM. Ya buddy your not one taco short of a combo plate at all!!! Anyways. I shouldn't be talking because I swear I'm losing it. You have to clock out for lunch and then clock back in when your done. I swear I can not remember for the life of me if I did either. I must have a lot on my mind. IDK. Tonight was strange but hey that's life. Also tomorrow night Chey's brother is coming home from his mission. Exciting stuff right? Right! Excpet I won't get to see Chey. This will be probly the first night in the 3 (almost 4) months we've been dating that we haven't seen each other. That's right people we see each other every day...don't hate. Anyways. This is sadening me today so I'm thinking I'll go see him in the morning just so we won't ruin our amazing record!!! Whoop!

Making The Switch

I might be switching over blogs. I have 2 right now, this one and the one I share with Mr. Amazing. But I haven't really been blogging a lot on this one. But the other one I mainly just blog about things pertaining to Chey. But ya IDK..what do you think?

Out With The Old...

Today I decided it was time to do some deep cleaning. A while back (when Mr. Amazing came into my life) Shelby and I decided there were some things that we had that needed to be out of sight and definately out of mind. We figured the best (and most fun) way to dispose of the items was to burn them. Well we are a couple of busy girls and on our list of things to do, burning love letters and such was far from the top. So I decided today to stop procrastinating and finally get rid of the extra clutter lying around in my room. I through everything out. I am a pack rat and I had kept notes, letters, pictures, corsages, pictures, jewelry, homecoming questions, journals, gifts, movie tickets, and anything else you could think of. It is all currently sitting outside my house in the trash can and it will be taken to the dump promptly. How exciting. Yes it was a part of my past, but just because I don't have reminders doesn't mean I'll forget a 2 year chunk of my life. However, I find that chunk a large waste of time (except for a few events that brought me to where I am now) and I don't need keepsakes to hold on to the memories that truly matter. The only thing I even considered keeping was the necklace (who knows, maybe it was worth some money) but I quickly remebered it was purchased from K-mart and no pawn shop in their right mind would take it. Now that the old is out I feel like I have even more space to bring in the new. It's funny how life changes though. I looked through my journals one last time before tossing them to try and scavenge the smallest bit of advice I could learn from. Basically I realized that the following:

God only wants the best for us. He only wants us to be happy. If we're not truly happy with something it's probably not the right thing for us.

The greatest things come without force. Relationships take work, but if your the only working all your doing is forcing a round peg in a square hole, and even kindergardners know that won't work.

Life changes. What you once thought was going to be your life can change in an instant.

Learn from the past.

Your past brings you to your future. Without my past I never would've met Mr. Amazing...funny how things seem to get worse before they get better, but once they do they're AMAZING!!

UPDATE!!

I'm now officially a life guard and blonde!! Go me! I'm also poor, that sucks!

Ok So Here's The Deal

So I haven't blogged in a while. I haven't really had a whole lot of time to even get on the internet. Here's what's been going on.

I'm going to start with today because right now I'm drawing a blank and I can't think of anything else that's going on. So today I get up and I'm dead tired! Like seriously. Lately I can tell I'm really tired by this new little thing my body does where when I open my eyes it feels like there are razor blades on the inside of my eyelids. Obviously not fun. Sooo I went back to sleep :) Anyways when I finally got up and everything I headed on my merry little way to school. I always sorta time myslef so that I know if I'm giong to be late or not. So I'm almost there and I look down at the clock and it's 10 to 11 but it usually takes me at least 15 minutes to park my car in BFE and walk to class. So I started freaking out because my teacher is a crazy old lady and she hates when your late and if you are she yells at you in front of the whole class (all 295 students(not lying(How many parenthesis can you get in a sentence))) ANYWAYS! Well after I parked I sat there in my car for a sec and couldn't for the life of me remember what time my class started..was it 11, 11:15, 11:30...IDK. So I walked to my class a whole 30 minutes early. Shnikees. Luckily I had some Bio homework to do so it wasn't to bad. After that I went to class and decided to color instead of paying attention. Well doodle not color. But I'm a weird doodler. I doodle fonts. I have lots of them. It's fun. So I doodled this little number.

Cute right. I know :) Anways, class was over and I ran to my car to move it so I wouldn't have to walk all the way across campus when I got done with my lab. After moving it I sat and ate my leftovers from breakfast (a hostess stroudel, heath bar, and a watered down Dr. Pepper) Then I went to class and luckily it didn't take to long. When I got out of class I had just enough time to grab a quick bite and run to my lifeguarding class. All I wanted was a chicken quesadilla with extra jalepeno sauce and a Mt. Dew. I drove around for an hour looking for a taco bell. When it was apperent that there wasn't one anywhere to be found I decided I would stop at the closest fast food restuarant...but guess what! Apparently people down in the ghetto don't eat. However I did find this thing called "TENT CITY" WTF. Did you know we had such a thing. We do. It's a bunch of hobos who pitch tents on a street and live there. So that was interesting. I was so pissed about the whole taco bell thing, so I come into class and everyone can tell I'm mad. So I shared my tragic story and everyone felt so bad that someone gave me a bag of lays. HOW SWEET! My day totally improved untill 5 minutes later when my instructor walked in with a taco bell cup in his hand. WTF. So ya. The rest of the class went well except for one thing. Our test is tomorrow so we were practicing for it. Well I was really nervous so I walked up with another lifeguard. I looked at my teacher and asked if I could be the secondary rescuer (which means the other person has to get in and make the rescue..all the secondary does is yell "Get out of the way!") My gay face instructor made me the one that has to get in the water! UGH! GAYGAYGAY. So I spotted my (fake) drowning person and jumped in and swam out. I get half way out there and realize they picked THE HEAVIEST AND BIGGEST DUDE to fake drown! And I'm one of the smallest!!! OMG! But I saved him. Yay me. After class I came home and jumped in the shower. What an event. Seriously. My hair has been really dried out from the pool. So I decided to use a trick I read about in Seventeen. Blast Seventeen...I think they just put advice in there so they can laugh to themselves about all the stupid girls who try them. Anyways. The trick is to put olive oil in your hair. So I ran to the kitchen to get the oil and covered my head in it. It was annoying but it came out. On to the next step. After I got the oil out and everything I went to shave. As I'm shaving my legs I'm feeling to make sure I didn't miss anything and I realize that my razor isn't really doing anything! So I try rinsing it out and realize the oil mixed with the little hair that's in there is clogging the razor. I tried everything to unclog it and nothing worked!!!! I had to throw out my razor and give up. However now part of one of my legs is kinda sorta shaved and everything else isn't. I swear. Here's some advice..1. Don't put oil anywhere near your body. and 2. Don't listen to anything Seventeen magazine has to say.

Improvements

The past few weeks I feel like I have making some huge improvements in my life. They're really more like changes but still. This week I started a lifeguarding class so that I can go find a better job and make tons of money. What will I use that money for you ask? Well I will be saving to buy a car (yes my very own car!) and to have money for when I leave for Utah. You heard right..I'm leaving for Utah soon, St. George to be exact. This week I recieved my acceptance letter to Dixie! I also recieved a scholarship! Awesome Possum! I'm also getting my hair done this week!! I can't wait. I love changing my hair. It's the easiest thing to change about your appearance and it's the probably the most temporary thing you can change about yourself. So ya! I will keep you updated on everythig!!! WOO HOO!

Today I got up and _(1)_ off to school! Luckily I only had 2 classes: The study of _(2)_ at 11:30 and then the study of _(3)_ at 1:30. When I _(4)_ in to my first class I realized that my professor was showing a movie: _(5)_. I _(6)_ _(7)_ out of there as fast as I could and went to _(8)_'s. When I got there I cleaned out my _(9)_ so I wouldn't have to _(10)_ in all the trash that was in there. After that we went back inside and got in a little _(11)_ match. He won but only because he cheated (of course). Then I _(12)_ off to school again. I was late though which made me very very _(13)_. But the class ended pretty early and before I knew it I was on my way back home. First though, I had to stop and get _(14)_ but when I walked in to get some money a man in a _(15)_ started _(16)_ at me making me extremely _(17)_. Oh well. Now I'm at home _(18)_ dinner and after that I'm going to _(19)_ with _(20) and then go see _(21)_!!!!

This is a good post..You know you wanna read it!!! (and Comment!!)

I have lots and lots of stories for this post!!! Most of them will probably bore you but who knows maybe you'll get a few giggles out of it.

So first of all, a few months ago I was ironing a skirt when something tragic happened. You see I don't have an ironing board in my room so when I iron I have to do it on my bed. Well anyways I was ironing away when I smelled something burning. When I lefted up the iron I found a huge burn mark on my bed sheets. For some reason I thought if I washed the sheets the mark would go away but alas it did not. So for the past few months I've had to look at my ugly charred sheets that have a burn mark resembling a skid mark. Do you know what a skid mark is. In case you have been living in a box your whole life I will inform you. A skid mark is something you get in your undies when you suck at whiping. They are most commonly found in my dad's briefs. Bahaha you probly didn't need to know that but anyways...so last night I was at Walmart with Mr. Amazing and found some new sheets. They were on sale for a really cheap price and they were dark green. Not only would they match the comforter I have now but if I should ever leave the iron on my bed again it won't leave a mark. So I skipped all the way up to the register excited about my new sheets. I reached in my purse to pull out my wallet and couldn't find it! Earlier last night I had been paying for something online and forgot to return my wallet to its happy little home known as my purse. Luckily I had Mr. Amazing with me and he ran to the rescue to grab his wallet. He threw me the wallet and my (not-so) excellent hand-eye coordination skills kicked in and I caught the wallet easy peasy. The older couple in front of my looked in awe an asked if I played ball. Well of course I do!! (Just not with my hands) I chuckled and informed them that I had absolutely no hand-eye coordination but they persisted by telling me I should take it up. When the turned around I rolled my eyes..PSSHHHHH SOCCER IS BOMB WHY WOULD I WANT TO PLAY ANYTHING ELSE!?!?! Anyways...

This morning I woke up ridiculously early because I'm still carpooling with my family due to Lackofcaritis! (That's the terribly awful case of not having a car for a week) When I got home I decided school was for losers and I would stay home. Oh stop rolling your eyes. I only had one class today and I have an A++++ in there so there. Anyways I stayed home and did laundry and junk so it wasn't that exciting. Then I headed off to work. Oh the joys of work. Ugh. I was talking to a co-worker when she informed me that another co-worker (let's just call him Stu) wasn't talking to her because she called Stu a FLOOZY! HAHAHA I could not stop laughing because it is so true..Stu is a floozy in dude form. Later Stu came up to me to tell me about his new nickname when I started laughing. He got all pissy and asked why it was so funny. I said..Stu you are such a floozy! Stu gasped in shock and said (direct quote) "I'm not a floozy!! I've only kissed 13 girls in one year!!!" Oh my heck Stu that totally qualifies as being a floozy. It took me 4 years to get to my number of 13!! He tied my in just one. What the heck. But this totally proved my point that Stu is a giant floozy.

After that I was given the one bit of power I have at DI: The Store Phone. This is the phone that all the annoying customers call to ask stupid questions like "Do you have refrigeraters. Not regular ones, just tiny ones." So everytime I get the store phone it stays silent for hours without one phone call. Then I decided its safe to run to the bathroom. I'm not kidding you every time I go to the bathroom the phone rings. I hate answering the phone in the bathroom because there's an echo and EVERYONE knows your in the bathroom talking on the phone. So anyways, today I went to the bathroom and on my way there I saw this sign saying ***$25 reward for whoever catches and gets rid of the cat hiding in production*** I pretty much disregarded the sign because my urge to piddle was greater than the desire FOR A WHOLE $25!!! Well anyways I'm sitting in the stall outsmarting the phone (sitting in the stall but not actually going so when the phone rings I can make a quick exit and then go back to finishing my bathroom buisiness). Of course the phone rings so I quickly exited and answered the phone.

Me: Thank you for calling Deserest Industries, this is Alix, How may I help you?
Caller: Yes what time do you close?
Me: 9 o clock ma'am.
Caller: Ok I'm just calling to confirm that the cat trap Tabitha ordered will be here tonight.
END OF CALL

K by now most people know that due to my mom's insane love for cats I'm not a big fan..BUT COME ON! Tabitha you are a whore. You ordered a cat trap! That sounds horrible. Seriously think of all the traps possible..none of them end great for the animal..mouse traps, rat traps, ant traps, bear traps!!! My word. And DI is supposed to be a place of church goers. I'm ashamed to be associated with a place that would turn to cat traps! Plus why would you post reward signs if your just gonna use a cat trap!

In other news I get my car back tomorrow! Totally exciting. Also I mailed in my tax forms and my stuff for Dixie so I should get money and hopefully an acceptance letter very soon! Mr. Amazing needs to send in his stuff otherwise the 2 of us will not be going anywhere! So sad.

Did You Know It's March!?!

K the title of this blog is silly..I mean obviously you know its march..but I put it anyways. So just as an fyi a few letters on my keyboard are sticking so if you see typos that's why...don't kill me.

Ok so its march and this is going to be such a busy month for me. On the 5th I have a bio exam..gah Kill me now..then I have a lifeguarding class for 2 weeks! Hopefully i pass so i can get a rad job this summer/make lots of money/get super tan cuz I am WHITE!...then I am going to DISNEYLAND!!! I can't wait Shelby and I are gonna pack up for a weekend and head up (or is it down) to Cali for some good wholesome fun. I can't wait. This month is going to be busy but oh so much fun!!!! I'll keep you updated!

Really Bad Singing

Shelby posted a lovely blog of us singing to someone at DI (it's hilarious go look if you haven't seen it) so I decided to show off some more of our awesome singing skills!

HEY

I'm almost to my 100th post..exciting..i just thought I'd post a blog about that..what should i do for my 100th..i need ideas!

I Want To Be Nephi

I already posted for today, but I felt inspired to write another post. I found out today that the transmission in my car needs to be replaced. It's going to cost $2300, but my car is only worth $2000 at most. Basically my car is crap now. Then when I got home and checked the mail I found a letter from my car insurance. One of the people that was involved in my car accident is sueing me....for $75,000. $8000 is doctor bills, everything else is money she thinks she deserves from pain and suffering. This lady is ridiculous. If you don't know the story I was going about 35 and hit the back of an SUV which slid about 5 feet forward and hit the lady that's sueing me. Her car had no damage and after the accident she jumped out of the car to run around and take pictures. As soon as the ambulence arrived she flopped on the ground and started screaming. She was faking the entire time. It's pretty ridiculous that we're being sued for this and my mom and I are very stressed. We were sitting on the couch and I suggested we read scriptures. In times of trial why wouldn't you want to be comforted by the Spirit that comes with reading your scriptures. We've decided to read through the book of mormon since neither of us have yet. I'm very familiar with the first couple chapter in 1 Nephi. I have started reading the book of mormon multiple times and always quit by about 2 Nephi so 1 Nephi sticks in my mind. Today, however, something stood out in my mind. In the second chapter they start to talk about Laman and Lemual and how the murmur against Lehi. While reading I remebered and institute class I went to that discussed this. During the class the teacher asked us who we wanted to be: Nephi or his brothers. When we are put through trials do we want to stay steadfast and true or are we going to murmur about our unfortunate circumstances. I don't know about you, but I definately want to be Nephi. A few nights ago I was hanging out with Shelby who was telling me this story about a mother and her daughter. I can't remember exactly what was wrong, but the daughter had some sort of illness. Her mother often prayed and asked "Why Me?" She couldn't stop asking why Heavenly Father had put her and her daughter through this trial. What had she done wrong? One day she walked by her daughters room and saw the words "Why Not Me?" Her daughter accepted her trial knowing that Heavenly Father would not put her through anything she wouldn't be able to overcome and instead of asking Him "Why Me?" she asked "What can I do to make the best of my trials?" I'm not going through a terminal illness, I'm not going to die, and overall I have a very good life. I'm going through an unfortunate event in my life, but I'm determined to be like Nephi.

I Have The MacLeod Luck

So yesterday was Sunday. I love Sundays. They're so relaxed and just chill. I got up and started to get ready but ran into a problem. I couldn't find my flats! Usually I don't wear flats on Sundays, I'm almost always in heels. But, I went to church with Mr. Amazing and needed some flats. Since I couldn't find my flats I was forced to wear heels. Poor us, we looked like such a weird couple. Anyways, while at church I went to help Chey with his primary class. Talk about being unprepared. He totally wings it. It's insane. Anyways, after he the kids all hyped up on tootsie rolls he gave the white boards and marker. By this point the kids were bouncing off the walls. They were hi from sugar and marker fumes. He's such a great teacher. Haha k they weren't really lol but still. Anyways after we dropped the kids off on some poor unsuspecting teacher we went to a farewell for a guy I used to work with. The building was forever away and by the time we got there we couldn't even get a seat inside cuz it was so packed. Then we went back to Mr. Amazing's house and he made me a PB&J. If that's all it took to be a great cook he'd be a master lol. After that I went home and slept. I love sleeping. It's one of my favorite things to do. Right after hanging out with Chey and Shelby and eating. :) Last night after my lovely nap we had dinner and then watched Seven Pounds. It was really good.

So then this is where the title comes in. I had such a lovely morning! I woke up at 7 to go swim at the gym. When I got there I was the only one under the age of 60. So I started off on my swim. I did one whole lap. I know I'm pathetic. Anyways it's a work in progress. Then I came home and got ready for school and work and such. I got in my car ready to start my day. All of a sudden my car went bizerk! Holy crap! So I pulled off to the side and parked. I thought for sure if I turned it off and let it sit for a second it would be ok. After a few minutes I restarted it and tried to pull out of the parking spot. But my stupid ghetto car wouldn't go in reverse. It just sat there. I shut it off again and called Chey and my mom. Chey came to my rescue and used his huge muscles to push my car out of the parking spot so I could drive it to the dealership. He's such a manly man! What a stud! MY HERO! Anyways. I found out later that Chey told someone he couldn't go to class because he had a family emergency. WTF! I blame him for my car breaking down. It worked fine untill he said that and then what do you know...family emergency. Not really cuz we're not techinically family...yet. Haha. So now I'm sitting in my mom's class room waiting to go to work because my boss refused to let me call off. Did I mention I'm in sweats. Ya I look like crap. But we might trade in my car..can you say UPGRADE! Tonight I'm helping Chey bake so that should be fun. I'm sure we'll be bouncing off the walls from all the sugar..but that's ok. We can be so immature sometimes. We went to the store to grab some food and while we were there Chey decided it would be funny to point a lazer at everyone's butt. Immature? Yes. Fun? HECK YES! So that's my life. I'll keep eveyrone updated on the car situation. Hopefully I'll be cruisin in a Toyota Tacoma soon!!!!

Shtuff

So today I had yet another facebook incident...the husband sent me a message asking me why i denied his friend request. Hmmm..interesting. Than I was catching up on how everyone's doing and I realized I hadn't heard anything from an old friend. He is supposed to be turning in his papers soon so I thought I'd check out his profile to see what's been going on. But he deleted me as a friend. Not that big of a deal but kind of ironic considering he made a huge huge HUGE deal about how he wanted to stay best friends for our whole lives. Not to mention I stayed friends with him through out all the ups and downs of the last 2 years of his life. I guess he can't do the same for me. But that's perfectly fine because I have all the best friends I need right now and they are amazing. Anyways the point of all that is I'm deleting my facebook. No one talks to me on it anyways and it's done nothing but caused drama for the past week so Bye-Bye facebook.

In other news.

I just woke up from an interesting nap about 5 minutes ago. It was ok. But I had a disturbing dream. Woke up in a cold sweat and everything. In my dream I was trying to nap and when I finally woke up I walked out of my room to find my very rude boss hanging out with my mom. Scratch that..she was going through my mom's closet trying to find some clothes to borrow. Like they were best friends or something. Seriously disturbing. Then in the dream I went out in the kitchen to eat the dinner my mom had made which was a sandwich called a Baltimore Maryland. Strange right. Let me explain what this thing was since I don't think it even exists. It was kind of like a meatball marinera except instead of marinera there was beef gravy. It was weird. You might be sitting there thinking, Why are you dreaming of a sandwich like that? Well I'm not sure why I dreamed of a sandwich in the first place...I'm a fatty and am always thinking of food, but other than that I don't know the reason. However, it was called a Baltimore Maryland because in school today my professor brought that up. I have no idea why. She was using it for an example that I can't remember. But I spent the last 20 minutes of class thinking about Baltimore, Maryland. Mainly because I kept thinking that Baltimore was in Deleware. I don't it was all very strange.

Now that I'm up I'm going to jump in the shower and then cook dinner for my family (Baltimore Marylands anyone?!? jk) Then I'm going to go out with Shelby and Chey. We're gonna go ride go-carts. It should be a jolly good time and I will make sure to take lots of pictures :)

I Pity You

Dear Unmentionable,
For the past week I have been experiencing a new kind of feeling for you. The bitter disrespect for what you did to your now ex-boyfriend has been replaced with nothing but pity. You see I always knew you were a wench and frankly not the smartest person on the planet. You had an amazing guy that most girls only dream of having and you lost him because of your own selfish stupidity. You hurt him, and though everyone gets hurt at one point or another I didn't like you for it. You also gave him up. You decided to move on and start a life with someone else without any regards to what it would do to the people around you. However, I benefited greatly from your loss. I ended up with him. I, unlike you, see what an incredible guy he is and I will hold on to him forever. I love him more than anyone can imagine and I'm am happier than I have ever been since we started dating. I have you to thank for that. But, like I said, my feelings and opinions have changed towards you. It annoyed my when I found out you were still trying to talk to him. You are married and therefore should have no interest in his life at all. That is what happens when you get married. You slide into your own world where the only people that inhabit it are you and your husband. You, however, failed to do this. You continued to interrupt the lives of those you have no business with anymore. Eventually we stopped hearing from you and all was well...until last Saturday. Valentine's Day. What a day to pick. I innocently signed on facebook and there you were in my friend request box. At first I had no idea who you were so I sent you a message asking if I knew you. Soon, though, I figured it out and I accepted you at first to gander at the man you chose over your ex. Your stupidity really shines through on this choice. Honestly what were you thinking. That's not the point tho. I quickly deleted you from my friends only to find a day later that you had replied to my oh so innocent message.

"not really but since your boy was my boy for 5 years and was going to marry me i thought that i would see what he is in to now that i am married to someone else..."

This along with a snide remark about his past was sitting in my inbox on Tuesday morning. You also delighted him with a message as well. What makes you think that because you dated him for 5 years you should have any say in who he sees now. And you are married to someone else. Shouldn't you be a little more worried about your life with your husband, not your ex's life. Seems logical to me, but as I stated before, my opinion on your intelligence isn't the best. I had many comments I wanted to add to your little reply, but I refrained, refusing to stoop to an immature level. However, you were not satisfied by this. The next day Chey and I found friend requests yet again. Apparently being deleted wasn't enough for you, you wanted your request to be ignored as well. By now any semi-logical person would have given up. I say semi-logical because this entire situation wasn't logical to begin with. But even in your state of insanity that drove you to this point, you should've given up. However, today when I logged onto facebook I saw yet another friend request. I opened it knowing fully what was going to be in there, but was oddly shocked. Sitting in the place of your picture and name was a new picture, yet the same name. Your husband sent me a friend request. You have now reached a new level of pathetic. Is your life honestly so measly that you need to harass your ex-boyfriend and his new girlfriend AND drag your husband into it. My dear, not only did you make a huge mistake by passing up someone as amazing as Chey, you are in the midst of making yet another mistake. You are going to lose the man who is now in your life because you are stuck in the past. When this entire thing started I was very angry at you, but that anger has been replaced by pity. I pity you that you now have a life that you obviously aren't enjoying, I pity the fact that you have to try and harass your ex, his family, and his girlfriend just to make your life seem better than it is, and I pity your poor husband for falling into your trap and having to be hurt by you because you are not over your ex. I want you to know that I am praying for you. I'm praying that you, now realizing your mistake, will soon get over it and try to be happy with the person you married. I'm praying that you will be as happy in your life as Chey and I are in ours. And I'm praying that one day you will mature and realize that this whole scenario has been very childish and potentially hurtful on your part. I hope you have a nice life.

Wow I'm Stressed

Lately I have been stressed. This is pretty normal for me I stress a lot, but it still sucks. Mainly I've been stressing about school. I (like a retard) decided to take all my hardest classes in my first semester of college. Smart right..I know. Well 2 of my classes are giving me a really hard time. And it sucks. I failed a test in one of them today. So on my way home I decided I was going to go shoe shopping. I was basically just going to blow my money on something I really could do without. Cuz let's face it, that makes everyone feel better..untill the bill comes and you stress about money. Anyways. On my way to the oh-so-wonderful-shoe-store I heard a song by Taylor Swift called The Best Day. A few weeks ago I saw an interview of her on the song and how it meant a lot to her because it's about her mom and she recorded it without her mom knowing and when she saw it her mom cried. Well knowing that and then listening to the song I started thinking about all the things my mom does for me and what a great rolemodel she is in my life. Without her I don't know what I'd do. The song almost made me cry. So I decided to use my "shoe money" for something better. I ran to the store and bought flowers, a card, and reese's (her favorite) and had them delivered to my mom's work. :) She loved it!! YaY!

Tonight I'm hoping I can go workout with Shelby. I need to get some frustration out. I really wanna go play soccer. Like a full on game. I miss it so much. The kicking and sliding and running and beating the crap outta girls (oh wait that's not legal..nvm). Anyways ya I miss it. If I wasn't so dang outta shape and the sole of my cleat wasn't half falling off I'd go play. Chey and I were talking the other night about how unfair it is that all these new soccer fields are going up. Why didn't we have such awesome fields when we were still playing. Srsly. It sucks. But whatever.

Last night I had a dream that I went back to work at Aliante. That was very strange. I thought I'd share that with everyone!

Some Cute Title

I love the show FRIENDS! Honestly its so hilarious!

Anyways, I'm still pretty stressed about some school issues. Computers are retarded i've decided. Along with teachers that don't speak English! It sucks! I have a test in biology tomorrow that I'm pretty sure isn't going to go well. I figure if I can at least get a C I might be ok! Who knows though! YIKES! I wish I could just take the classes that I really like. I've always wanted to become a teacher: High School expecially. Originally I was going to be a biology teacher, but recently I changed my mind to a subject I never liked: English. I hated english in school. Hated it with a passion. I didn't like to read and I hated writing papers. But during the semester I took off I did a lot of reading and definately a lot of blogging. I read somewhere that writing has to be practiced just like everything else. I've always been a pretty good writer, but I never liked it. But now I LOVE IT! This last paper that I wrote was the most interesting thing I've done in school in a long time. Why can't I just say "Screw Biology" and take english for every credit! Seriously I don't think I would have any problem with that!

The other day in english we were talkinga bout the importance of commas! Commas don't seem very important right but check this out.

Take this one sentence for example:

Woman without her man would be nothing.

Commas allow you to punctuate this sentence to mean very different things. For example, I would most definately punctiate like this:

Woman, without her, man would be nothing!

Nice right! But you could disagree and punctuate it like this:

Woman, without her man, would be nothing.

Obviously we know the first choice would be the most appropriate for any occasion. Hahaha well anyways, I'm sure this is a very boring blog. Who really wants to read about reading! I know. I'm boring! I can't help it though. But the point of this whole thing is that sometimes you go years thinking your life is going to end up one way and the next second you change your mind. Ans how amazing is it that we are allowed to change our minds! We live in a country that allows us to do whatever we want! And the last thing I realized through this is that people have very lasting impressions on you. I had never even heard of blogging until Shelby introduced it to me! I'm not as blog savvy as she is but I've still grown to love it! Now when I look back on my life 30 40 50 years from now and think "Why did I decided to major in English" I can think back to that lasting impression that Shelby left on me!

That's all for now. I'm going to go eat and do other things.

I Was Pondering

I realized something yesterday! I was sitting at Shelby's looking for a recipe to make for dinner. She got on a blog of a person that she has started to admire. I haven't read this girl's blog but from what I hear she is a pretty amazing person. I started to think about the blog's that Shelby and I have started lurking and wondered why we stalk them. They're lives are interesting and they are awesome people. I was sitting there reading a blog the other day when I started thinking about the things I could do that would make me seem as awesome as some of the people I blog stalk. Then I realized. In the blogging world we often look for inspiring stories that other people tell that inspire us to do something amazing with our lives. However, we rarely think about who could be blog stalking us. The internet is a big place and though it might not be apparent to us there is probably someone out there who is reading our blogs and thinking, "Wow this person is amazing! I wish I could do something to be more like them." We often look to other's and want to live there lives or do something comparable with ours. But how often do we think about the effect we have on other people. Instead of looking at other people and how much more awesome they are than us we should look more at ourselves and see our lives for what they really are: Awesome. I'm not saying that we shouldn't look to other people for inspiration, because more often than not others influence us to do amazing things with our lives. All I'm saying is as you read someone else's blog and think to yourself: Why can't my life be like their's? realize that just as you are admiring their blog, someone is admiring yours and you are effecting their life to.

You Ate Your Dinner For Lunch!

So nothing has been going on in my life. I'm boring I know. Obvoiusly that's an exaggeration, but nothing of importance has been going on. Just school and the same old boring job. Let me think of something that has happened that I can share with you...................



Oh so the other night Mr. Amazing and I decided to go to the park just because. When we got there a truck was sitting in the parking lot. THe truck was running and the people were obviously inside it but they weren't leaving. Then a few minutes later I realized there were some articles of clothing left on a bench in the park! I ran do to see what was there and the truck immediately started to leave. There was a guys jacket and a girls jacket. It would've been much more entertaining if a pair of pants or something had been there but I wasn't that lucky. Anyways, I decided the 2 were probably fornicating in the park and Chey and I ruined it for them so in a rush they ran to their truck and left their clothes on the bench. Scandelous. One day they will look back at that experience and laugh about how 2 people ruined their fun at the park and I have satisfaction knowing a played a part in such a story. Anyways, while we were at the park I was leaning against a ladder. Mr. Amazing was trying to mess with me so I flinched back and smacked my head into the ladder! OUCH! I seem to hurt myself a lot when I'm around him because he messes with me. He's so abusive! Just kidding he's not. However the guys at DI are. I'm starting to get welts. I came home last Saturday all upset about his and told my mom all about it. Then I went out and she called me. She said, "Did you tell Chey about the guys beating you up?" "Yes Mother why?" "Well...is he going to do something about it?"



My mother is so funny sometimes. What did she expect him to do? Get in a steaming mad rage and rush down to DI, demand that the beaters step forth and fight them all to the ground?! She is so silly sometimes.



In other news, last night I went to Michaels and spent lots and lots of time there. I think we paced the store about 3 or 4 times (maybe more). We even went down the wedding aisle. Suprisingly Chey did not drag me out shaking his head or even run away (altho it would've been hard to run away since I drove). Either way I have such an amazing boyfriend. I spent all night working on crafting things that I'm so excited about! YAY!



Also Friday is our "Valentine's Day". Ya we're cool and we shake things up by doing V-day the week before. Live with it. Friday morning I think we're going to get up and drive out to BFE (that's like a perfect diagnal on the keyboard!) and get breakfast borrito's. Then we're going to drive out to the other side of BFE and ride the roller coaster and stuff at Primm. Then we'll probably go home and get ready and then we're going to dinner (I don't know where and he says its going to be a suprise but I think he's just not sure where he's taking me) then we're riding the gondolas (however you spell it) then we're going to see KA. So it should be a pretty fun night I'm excited. I also wanna take lots and lots of pictures because sadly we don't have any good ones of the 2 of us. I told Shelby this and she mentioned that she could take pics of us to...yay..so i'll have lots of pictures! I'm so jazzed! bahahaha i just said jazzed..that's lame

In other news..today while I was driving to school I saw the most ridiculous thing ever..this idiot dude was riding down the I-15 on just his back wheel. I swear people can be retarded sometimes.

The other day I was listening to Brian Regan in my car..if you haven't heard him you should go look him up because he's hilarious..anyways he talks about how you can be walking and all of a sudden a bee will attack you..and the people around you start looking at you like your insane because they see you freaking out but they NEVER see the bee..this happened to me today while I was walking to my car and half of UNLV was standing next to me. Luckily know on knows me and if anyone I know had been there I would've just ran i think.

So today was my grandma's 39th birthday! yup she's rad. So we went to her house to visit. While we were there some pretty funny stuff happened. She was going out tonight so my grandpa asked what he was going to do for dinner since she wouldn't be there to cook. She said you already had dinner. He said, "really when I don't remember that." "Ya you had leftovers, you ate your dinner for lunch." K maybe it was a "you had to be there thing" but it was hilarious trust me.

Anyways, that's all for my boring life! Woo Hoo

shnikies

Last night I had to work from 1-9:30. It was long. Bah. After work Mr. Amazing took me to Macaroni Grill cuz I'm a fatty. We ended up writing this whole long this all over the paper cover on the table. I'm sure after we left the waiters were all laughing. OH WELL! Anyways then we came back to my house. We didn't have enough time to put in a movie so we turned on the tv and found something good to watch. About 5 minutes into it I fell asleep! I was so tired holy crap. About an hour later I woke up realizing that Mr. Amazing had fallen asleep to. We're a boring couple, we sit around and sleep. Anyways. He left and I prayed like no other that he would get home ok. He seriously looked like he was going to fall asleep on the drive home! Did you know that driving when your tired is just as dangerous as driving drunk. Ya not good. Anyways he made it home ok.

This morning I got up and went to work. There was nothing to do so my boss asked me to color and size the dress racks. These things are monsters! Seriously. It's no easy task to organize them. I figured I was going to have to eventually though because all week I've just been throwing dresses on the rack without even sorting them like we're supposed to. That's karma. Anyways, it took me 4 hours to finish that beast. It was really nice because I was off in my own little world, but customers kept screwing everything up! Not to mention the guys that I work with kept coming over to beat me. I thought guys weren't supposed to hit guys. Apparently not at DI. Anyways, I had a crappy day and that's life. Luckily I get to see Mr. Amazing tonight and that will make everything bad that happened go away! I'm so lucky to have him. Shelby helped a lot today to! She texted me almost the whole day which was amazing because she kept me from trying to kill the guys and from going insane. Well anyways, I don't have much more to blog about so I'm going to go..I hope everyone who's reading this had an amazing day and many more to come!

Oh Man Good Stuff

Shelby *********** (no last name cuz this is the internet people and I don't want some creeper going after her in the middle of the night) is my best friend. I love this girl. One thing that I espeically love about her is she listens to all my boring ace stories. Yes my friends I have boring stories believe it or not. I actually run the boring version by her first and then give you all the exciting version! Anyways. We're gonna get back to Shelby in a second.

This morning I woke up and put on basketball shorts and a t-shirt. I decided I did not care one bit what I looked like, but that I wanted to be comfy and so I headed out the door. It's about 5 steps from my door to my car so in my short distance I evaluated the weather and decided it was chilly but not too bad. I hopped in my ghetto car and drove to the gas station so I wouldn't break down on my way to school. In the oh I'd say 5 minutes it took me to put gas in my car I just about died! It was SOOOO cold! Holy Eff Word. I stood outside almost in tears from the weather and thought to myself, "The smart thing to do would be to go home and put on some actual clothes, but if I do I will surely be late!" So I got back in the ghetto transportation thing called my car and drove to school. In the 30 minute drive there I decided to ditch my second class. This is because my second class is forever away and I would have surely died if I had tried to make that walk in my lack of clothes. And you all wouldn't want me to die right?! Well then to my suprise I was handed a quiz when I walked in my math class. Oh quiz days how I love and hate you. I love you because you allowed me to leave school after being there a grand total of 27 minutes! YA THAT'S RIGHT! Anyways, after school I came home and bundled up. I had 2 layers of very bulky clothes on that made me look like I was 50 million pounds. I looked like poo but I said oh well and headed out. I went to my favorite store ever...Michaels. Chey laughed at me the whole time because I was getting frustrated! You see I'm starting a project and when I do this I become quite frustrated sometimes. I have a VERY specific picture of the finished project in my head and I want it to be perfect. You see I am writing a letter and people save my letters for a very long time. True story. And I want this particular letter to be saved as well, so the paper, pens, and everything else that I'm using to create this masterpiece had to be perfect. Anyways, after that I headed over to that Rhapsodielle store (the devil store) to find something to wear for Valentine's Day because all my nice shirts make me look fat and that just won't do now will it. NOPE! I picked out 3 and wouldn't decide so I bought all of them and would return the 2 I didn't like. But when I brought them home I decided they were only $10 each and I would wear them eventually. So I'm not returning them. I still don't know which one to wear for that night though. Shelby suggested posting pictures online and letting people vote but you see the only people who read this thing are Shelby and Chey. Well those are the only ones that comment at least. So I'd be wasting my time by doing that. After I went shopping I ran a few other quick errands and then returned home to change so I could go to the gym. I was chatting with Mr. Amazing on the phone when it died! I didn't want him to think I hung up on him cuz that would be rude so instead of going to the gym and then going to see Shelby (like I had planned) I did the reverse so I could let him know what happened. So I let him know the deal and all and then he decided to text Shelby about some things related to Valentine's Day. However, we agreed we weren't getting each other anything for Valentine's Day. That cheater. And Shelby wouldn't even tell me what they were talking about. Something about Cinderella..ya no clue whatsoever. But I realized (yet again) that he really is living up to his name: Mr. Amazing. Shelby knows that I have a necklace compulse. I love them. Necklaces are the only things I MUST have. If I don't have one around my neck I am very sad and lonely. But Mr. Amazing noticed something. Something that I don't even think Shelby noticed. I have a new necklace, a rather important one because it was a recent birthday present from my mom. I have been completely attached to it ever since. All girls expect guys never to notice anything. But he noticed. Because well he's amazing. Don't be jealous. Anyways, I kept trying to steal Shelby's phone to see what they were talking about. Finally I was able to snatch it and read it even though I was being beaten furociously. But the text just said, "Ok..." Gah! I suffered through a Shelby *********** beating just for that! Honestly people. After that Shelby and I stood around and tested eachothers candle sniffing abilities. She kept making me smell the nasty ones, I thought I was going to barf. Anyways, and then we laughed and laughed about nonsense I can't even remember. Except for her lecture on why I should let Chey pay for me and stop trying to find ways to pay him back. When I left I was in tears from laughing and Shelby was in tears because, well I'm not sure why actually! Anyways. Shelby your awesome! I'm so glad we've become such good friends. I think I would die without you! YOUR AWESOME!!!!!

Eveerything That's Been Going On

Like I said in the last post, I really haven't had a whole lot of time to blog. But I've finally found a few free moments to sit down and share my oh so exciting life with everyone. I'm not even supposed to have free time right now. I'm supposed to be at church, but I stayed home because I felt horrible this morning. Weird fact about me: if I don't get enough sleep it literelly makes me sick until I go back to sleep. So the wee bit of sleep I had last night was just enough to make me sick. And I felt horrible because 30 minutes before church I had to call someone and ask them to take over my primary class. I felt like a jerk. Anyways. So here's what's been going on this past week.

Monday: Last Monday I didn't really do anything because it was a holiday and there was no school. I attempted to do my laundry and clean my room and do some homework but that didn't work out to well.

Tuesday: I got up and went to class (math) and didn't understand anything that was going on. Then I went to history for 30 minutes. We sat and watched the inauguration and then we got to leave! YAY! So after that I went to pick up some chinese food ($23 for chow mien, beef with brocolli, and fried rice holy how expensive). I took that lovely food over to Shelby's work and we ate like fattys. Then I went home and sat around doing nothing even though I should've been doing homework. At around 7ish Shelby and I went to the gym. I really wanna start working out again and she does to so we wanted to go check it out before we invest any money. Shelby decided we should run the 5K loop (which is 3 miles). Keep in mind that neither of us have ran in forever. So half way through I said screw this and stopped, but Shelby was determined to finish. After and hour of sitting around waiting she finally finished. Hahaha. I'm so proud of her though! We decided that was enough of a work out so we went to Vons to get some fruit and then I went to Chey's. Chey was having scripture study when I got there so I came in and sat down. When it was his turn to read I realized what chapter they were in and knew what was coming for me. Liars shall be thrust down to hell. Oh yes. Chey and I have this joke thing where he calls me a liar and I call him a cheater. He thinks it's far worse to be a liar because of that scripture right there. No where does it say anything about cheating. So as soon as he read that I could not stop laughing. Horrible Horrible. Anyways, when we were done with that we went down stairs and ended up getting in this huge pillow fight. It was fun. After the pillow fight workout I went home and tried to get some homework done. I got about half way done and decided to just go to bed.

Wednesday: I had the lovely priveledge of seeing Mr. Amazing that morning. If I'm lucky this will be an every Wednesday thing, but we'll have to see. Normally on Wednesday's I'm so busy with everything I don't have time to see him at all, so it was nice to get a few minutes with him before school. So after a few minutes of visiting we headed off to school (him on his bike). This time it didn't bother me as much to watch him drive that thing. Usually it scares the crap out of me. Anyways, then I got to school and did that whole thing, nothing interesting there. After that I have about 2 hours to get home and get changed for work. I used that time to stuff my face with food since I hadn't eaten all morning/day. Then I headed off to work for 6 hours of my life. When I got to work someone had written in that I was working in small as is. Small as is is the nastiest section of DI. Everyone hates working there. You itch the whole time your there cuz you can't help but think of all the diseases your getting. UGH. Well I found out that an employee (Wes) had volunteered me to work there. What a jerk. And on top of that he would not stop hitting me. Gay. When did it become ok for guys to hit girls. Seriously. Anyways, about 2 hours into my shift my phone died! I almost had a heart attack. I know I'm pathetic. I can't go 4 hours without texting! Well I don't care how pathetic I am that sucked. You try being stuck in small as is for 6 hours getting who knows how many diseases and you can't even talk to anyone. It sucks. After my torture I came home and went to bed (without doing any homework :/ )

Thursday: I was going to get up this morning and work out. But I was afraid I'd just get sick from being sleep deprived so I didn't. I got up and went on my merry little way to school. School is school, but I finally got something out of my math class. I sat ALL THE WAY IN THE BACK so I wouldn't be able to see the board or hear my teacher and I taught myself the chapter. Most accomplished day in the 2 weeks I've been in that class. Anyways, after school I came home and changed so I could go workout. I went by myself and ran the treadmill and then did the machines. I felt very accomplished. Also on Thursday I made a schedule of everything. I figured out that if I stick to my schedule I'll only have to do homework on Sundays (tisk tisk I know) and Tuesdays. Nice right. Ya I know. After the gym I came home and slept and then later that night Chey came over :)

Friday: I got up at around 10. Friday is my ONLY DAY OF THE WEEK to sleep in. It's killing me. Honestly. So I got up and did my hair and then ran to Walmart for some stuff I needed. When I got home I created a food masterpiece of Chocolate Chip Waffles. They were delicious. Then I went to work for 8 hours. Baaaa. Chey came to see me at work :) That was fun, but I felt like my boss was giving him a weird look while he was there. Here's the thing about my boss, not only is he my boss, but he's in my ward, my visiting teacher, and the person I go to for blessings. Ya. Anyways, Chey, I mean Mr. Amazing brought me a Dr. Pepper, mmmmm. Then he left and an hour later I was off and he came over lol. We watched Lord Of The Rings. At 1:30 I couldn't stay awake any longer so I walked him out. When I came back in the movie still wasn't over. We started it at around 10:30 or 11ish. Seriously. Long ace movie. hahahahaha. Then I went to bed :)

Saturday (Yesterday): Yesterday I got up and went to work. Oh work how I dispise you so. Another 6 hours of my life wasted at the DI. But I wasn't in small as is which is good. Then I came home and jumped in the shower to get ready to go out with Mr. Amazing. When I got out my Mom asked me if I would run to Dairy Queen for her. This might not seem like that big of a deal but it was a huge inconvenience. But I love her so I said yes. But I had no idea when I was going to squeeze that in. I have a very particular getting ready schedule because if I don't do everything in a certain amount of time my hair frizzes and looks like crap. But everything turned out ok and Chey and I went out around 7. If you want to know what happened you'll have to go HERE...http://tubbyandchunky.blogspot.com/ ..I need to learn how to do that cool thing where you can just click the word HERE and it will take you to the blog..well anyways. That was my Saturday night.

I already told you what happened today. The plan for the rest of the day is to do all my homework (math history biology (class) biology (lab) and english) and clean my room and do laundry. I really hope everything gets done. :)

Baaaa

I know I haven't blogged in forever, and whats even more depressing is that my last posts on all 3 of my blogs are depressing. Seriously. I didn't even leave you all with a happy note. You all probably think I wrote those and then went and slit my wrists and never came back or something. I'm sorry. Those days were not so good. But I'm all better now and I have lots to blog about because I haven't blogged in what feels like forever. It's been a week now hasn't it? Almost anyways. Well I don't have time to blog right this second because right this very second and I am getting ready for work. However, while I'm at work I will think of tons and tons of stuff to write about and then hopefully I'll be able to come back tonight and share my stories with you! Maybe this will build anticipation and you'll really want to see what I post. Haha. Well to all who are reading this I hope you have an amazing day on this amazing Saturday!

Oh Goodness

I've come to the realization that there are few people you can really trust. People (most of the time) are just looking out for themselves. I've always had trust issues. It's been something I've carried around with me sense I was little. I choose the people I'm close with very carefully and I open my heart only to those who I can truly trust. Right now I have 3 people that I feel I can really talk to. One of them will never leave me, but it's hard to talk to her because our relationship only allows for so much to be said. The other one has just come into my life. I can tell him anything and everything, but I've learned from past experiences that the trust I'm putting in him might backfire on me. Not because of anything he'll do, but because of what might be the inevitable. The last person I've known for a while. I'm not exactly sure when I met her, but our friendship really took off a year ago when I started working at DI. I can tell her anything. In fact I can seriously talk to her for hours. I'm sad though, because last night some things happen that really hurt me. And the funny thing is, out of the 2 of us, I shouldn't have been the one to get hurt. On Saturday I made a mistake. It all started because of the influences around me. I let people say things to me and persuade me to do something that I would never ever even think about doing to anyone, let alone my best friend. I'm not sure how I ended up being so influence by the words of someone else to actually go through with it, but I did, and that was my fault. Last night I sat on the phone crying, trying not to let my friend here the hurt in my voice over what I had done. I've decided the best thing to do is cut off the relationships I have with anyone at work. I will be nice and such, but after what happened this weekend I realized I can't trust any of them. Work is to work, not to try and build relationships with people. They have loyalty to there own friends and I have a loyalty to mine. I was silly to even think that the people I thought were my friends would show any kind of loyalty to me, and that's why I got screwed. Luckily I have a strong enough friendship with my best friend that this didn't kill our friendship (even though if I were in her shoes I would've been hurt beyond all belief). And she might be hurt and she's justified completely, because what I did was horrible.

I'm also screwing up I think. I'm cutting my self off to only being close to these 3 people. Like I said before the 1 will never leave, but what about the other 2. My best friend is moving to Utah soon and then what will I do. I'm so excited for her to go to Utah and go to school and meet new people. What am I going to do down here while she's gone though? Of course I have the 3rd person. But there's no guarantee at all that he'll be around. And unlike my best friend I have no way of telling how long he'll be there for me, a month? a year? 2 years? Who knows really.

I'm overwhelmed right now.

Oh, I'm sorry, I Thought I Graduated High School

Basically life is like high school. High school never ends. Ya that's right. If you disagree your either an idiot and you live in a box and have no idea what's going on around you, or your very lucky and I envy you. Yesterday was my second first day at DI. It was the first day of me going back to work. The drama all starts there. DI is a breeding ground for drama. It's ridonculous. Honestly. People need to mind their own business/stop sharing their business with me. I realize that some of the drama that's going down has to do with me (as a 3rd party) but seriously people keep me out of it!! That's all I'm going to say. Drama sucks!!! Save your drama for your momma!

Class

Today was the longest day of class I have all week. I went to precalc, then polysci, and then my biology lab. Precalc was much better today. I got a syllabus so now I can keep up with the class even if I don't pay attention while I'm in it. I sat up front to so I can hear her. It kept me more focused..for a little bit. I doodled a lot so ya. Then I went to polysci which was interesting but the guys behind me kept talking about how they were playing girls. Like this way the convo...

Guy 1..Ya man to I was walking towards Tracy and I was about to go jump behind her and give her a hug when out of no where Meghan comes up and kisses me and starts dragging me in the other direction. I mean seriously I thought she was still in class. Good thing she didn't see me with Tracy, that would've been really bad!

Guy 2...Dude..man..dude..a real player is always aware of his surroundings.

Are you kidding me. Guys can be ridiculous I swear. So anyways, after that nonsense I went to go find a nice spot to get on my computer. You see I had 30 minutes to get to my biology lab, but there was a problem. I didn't know where the building was. If you've ever been to UNLV you know that scattered around the campus are these box lookin things that have the names of the buildings on them and the direction that they are. It's extremely halpful. Well my biology lab building is new and its temporary, so it's not on any of the signs. So I had to get online to see a map so I could figure it out. So I found my building and a building next to it that was on the signs. Then I started my journey. The building on the signs was 458973 miles away from where I had started and very hard to find. After walking in circles for a while with my heavy books I decided to sit against the way of some strange building and check the map again. I opened my computer, checked the map, and realized the brick I was leaning again was the building I was looking for. So ya. Other than that class was very boring but I got done early and out and hour before everyone else. On my way home Shelby called me (thank goodness) and we talked all the way through the end of her shift and my rush hour traffic. Then I decided I was hungry and wne tto quiznos. Shelby decided that sounded delicious so I brought her a sub. Then I came home, changed into some very bright colors (for some reason) and went to Shelby's. We watched Pride and Prejudice and towards the end Chey showed up. While he was there Shelby took this really ugly picture of us. Well Chey doesn't look ugly, he's just kinda chillen there, but I look hideous. If we ever get a decent pic of the 2 of us I'll put it on our blog, but until then there's not chance. Even though everyone and there mom's going to see this pic becuase its on facebook and her blog. Oh well. Just because everyone can have access to it doesn't mean it needs to be posted on my blog.

Tomorrow I have no school, but I have to work...1-9:30. I'm pissed. Really. Ugh. I can't talk about it or I'll break the keyboard. Anyways, that was my day, 2 blogs down, 1 more to go!
