And She Lived Happily Ever After...Until Summer School That Is...

So the time has finally come! I am done with my freshman year of college! Huzzah! and my grades are coming in and looking pretty good!  but honestly im just excited to have time to actually do things besides school.  gosh!

well mom has been putting me to work though, we have been cleaning like mad to get the house ready for showing.  Its amazing how much trinkets and clutter we have collected over the years!  As I have been putting it, 'our house has been overweight and we have just been helping it shed some pounds!"  So the next could pictures are of my room, and if anyone remembers how it looked before, its crazy tidy; it also looks a bit bare, but we are trying to make the house look like a model home, so the de-cluttering applies to the walls too.


So i lately i have met this girl in my ward who is so awesome!  she is like my new best friend down here!  so monday night we were both really bored so we decided to go teepee-ing!  and Jeff actually met her and is taking her out tonight so we did his truck, and he thought it was pretty funny...


but thats kinda a bad picture...you should see the front of it! hahaha. here is us just after obtaining the goods:

well thats all for now! ja ne!

Its Snowing Craziness!

hey so my world is pretty crazy right now. So here is a list of what has been going down
1. really....im almost done with my finals, but they seem to just keep getting harder and harder! but hey im three down and one more to do...yes! just physics....*sigh* i guess i will just feel better when all the grades come in, all this waiting is not fun.
2. So boys.....uhhhhh....they are just very confusing....nuff said...
3. i need to make a list or something for the summer.  I dont want to be so bored but i do want to rest, so you have any suggestions for me please let me know!
So i guess my life isnt super super insane, but i promise, finals are taking more out of me than i anticipated, so i just dont wanna talk anymore about it.
But anyways....oh well im done for now. but just to emphasize my craziness...its snowing at my house! (well flowers anyways...)

Almost There!

ok I have been so busy lately, Im sad but not suprised that its been so long since I have updated! but so school is almost done, I cant believe it!  I have already done a whole year of college!  Its crazy, sometimes I still feel like the same person than I was when I graduated, but then I realize that I have grown so much this last year.  Our house is almost done so we will be moving soon, and I have moved to a University singles ward and it is great fun.  I have been making so many new friends, but I still hang out with my high school ones...at least until they all leave me for BYU and missions (missions I can live with, but why BYU?!?!).

But the other night I went on a date with my friend Josh and we had so much fun. Here are a couple pictures of us being totally goofy:





By the way, we went bowling...ha!  well im out for now! forgive me if my layout keeps changing, Im not satified with it right now so Im going to keep playing with it.  If you have any suggestions and ideas let me know!

Ugggg

Wow I am getting pretty terrible at updating! I get on and am all, wow its been a whole month already? hahaha...so basically life is same old, but differnt at the same time.  I know, Im crazy.  School, as usual, is hard and has been driving me up the wall for the past couple weeks so Im so incredibly happy that it is Spring Break right now.  One of the only downsides to this is that now i get incredibly bored cuz for the past like 2 days i have had nothing to do....well besides the little odds and ends.  For real, I went through my phone book at least 3 times today looking for someone to play with me but what do I come up with? Nothing, as in zilch, zip and nada.  But okay...I think I got all of rant out.  I donno if you feel better, but I do. :)

So really there isnt that much new around here, though I did host another mac and cheese party with a better turn out this time!  It was so much fun, my new friends from my ward are awesome!

So bascially all is well here in Ol' Mesa, the house is going good, Mom and Dad are going strong, and me and Jeff are just trying to make our ways through life. :) Oh happy days.

Update-ness

wow, im sorry people.  Life has been so crazy lately i havent even had time to breathe.  Honestly.  Its like bascially, my profs are all "lets all have tests, quizes and reports!" so naturally I have been suffering from severe bouts of stress in the forms of psyc outs, hair twirling, and  super fast talking.  But im doing better now. Ive been taking on the attitude of what happens, happens as long as i try my best.
Its kinda funny really though, because I feel calm at the same time.  Over this past year I have been growing so much, 'specially spiritually, and I feel like I have been prepared for this trial.  I have leaned on the Lord SO much, and am loving every bit of it.  Really, try this some time: as i drive to school I've been listing to LDS books and talks that I wouldnt normally take the time to read and its been helping me see the big picture.  Its like turning your car into a personal inspiration center! its awesome!
okay...off my hi now...:) well, honestly thats all thats been going on.  School, Hw, church, sleep...etc.  But hey, its life...ya know?

This was  my mac and cheese party with my friend Jeff...

We made FOUR differnt kinds and they were so good!

Life

So, once again I havent written in awhile.  This blog is supposed to be of my musings, but obviously my muse has gone on vacation, or maybe she hiding from me because school has started yet again.
Dont get me wrong, I love learning and meeting people etc, but I hate the stress.  I mean I know that life is going to be full of plenty of opportutunites to stress out, but I feel that with school it is one continuous round and that there is bascially nothing you can do about it. *sigh* wow I am really going off today....
Okay we are going to leave that subject now. I've moved to one of the University singles wards, not becasue I wanna get married, but jsut cuz I wanna meet more people.  Its hard to get to know people when the only times you see them is inbetween classes once a week (if that). So its been fun and hard to be out going at times, but I think I have been succeeding.
Oh yeah! I totally finished my quilt and it looks awesome! :) I am so proud of myself.  But still, I wanna thank my mom for helping me in every aspect of it, Emily for helping pick the colors out, and my aunt for giving me great tips! :D 
(oh yeah, I had an amazing "tea" party with my friends the other day...)

New Year?

Wow! I can't believe that I havent posted at all this new year!  Its crazy!  Basically though, I havent been doing much.  Just hanging out with my friends and trying to finish my quilt that has been taking FOREVER! :) But when it is done, which it almost is, it is going to be awesome!

(Me and Amy "hideing out")

(Just working on tieing the quilt)
"Sew" basically thats pretty much my life up until now.  School starts on Tuesday...oh joy....actually though I am happy that I will have a schedule in my life, but I dont like the stress.

OOOO! Yesterday I got to sing in the choir for Elder Bednar who came and had an AWESOME 'Q and A' fireside with the YSA of the East Valley.  Needless to say, I am always goin to cherish and remember that night and what I learned. :)
