This day is the last day of January. A lot has happened since my last post...

Welcome to the year 2012, where all things become possible and everyone tries to make all things happen once more. School started again and I'm swamped with homework, ALL THE TIME!! Do I do the homework? no.

There shall be more to come because I'm going to take on the February Photo of the Day Challenge! Starting tomorrow I will take one photo everyday. The things in this challenge are going to be way fun and I can't wait! :)

Until tomorrow... Farewell!

Self-Portrait :)

This is the assignment that I had to do for my photography class.

This is my sister, Collette.
Yes.
She is holding a giant Hershey's bar.
And yes again.
It is 5 lbs. of CHOCOLATE!!!
The only downfall of this candy bar and the reason it is till at the store is because of the $34.96 price tag :\
So tonight I get to start my new job. The only time the trainer works is in the middle of the night.
I have to work in 2 hours. I'm scared to go to sleep because... WHAT IF I DON'T WAKE UP?!?!?!
That would suck. a lot! So now I am sitting here. Listening to music. While I contemplate doing my math exam review... maybe that will wait for after work and now I'll go take a nap. Yep. That sounds good. Bye.

Movie Night + the rest of the day:)

It's Saturday... and guess how I spent my lovely afternoon? Yep, that is correct! Working and attending staff meeting... Fun, right? Not exactly! ha but I also did some fun things:
~ I went to Denny's and had my second breakfast of the day with some of the most entertaining people I know!
~ Me and my sister, Erin went to get popcorn at the theater, twenty minutes after I got off work. Then she wouldn't believe me that Enoch was actually accessible without the traveling on the freeway... we even took a field trip to the wonderful city of Enoch! Spectacular.
~ Mom, Collette, Erin and I watched our favorite movie: 'Despicable Me' :) That movie is hilarious! Best movie of all time and it doesn't matter how many times you've seen it... the funny parts are STILL super funny!! Even if it is the 297th time watching that movie... haha. Although mom and I were the only ones to actually watch the whole thing (the other two fell asleep, absolutely a pity) it was still a wonderful night.
~ The last thing I got to do today was make a little message that I could put with the treat my visiting teaching partner is making. The saying is from President Uchtdorf's talk from the Relief Society broadcast. It says, “Our journey toward perfection is long, but we can find wonder and delight in even the tiniest steps in that journey.”
~Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Isn't it so great!? I love this quote and I hope the sister in my ward does too!

Some funnies... and maybe not so funnies

So I have a few stories...

1. My mom said that for my Aunt Rhonda 60th birthday, someone is putting together a book of stuff for her. Right after mom said that, Erin looks at her and says, "Oh! How old is she?" 'Oh I don't know, 59?' hahaha it was so funny! I couldn't stop laughing for the longest time...

2. I went to history class today and we took a test. This weird guy came in to observe us as we took the test to make sure we weren't cheating. As people are starting to turn back in their tests, he makes these weird gestures and says some stupid things, like, "If you put it in the wrong pile, you will screw not only yourself but the whole class. Then you might get beat up." Stuff like that. The girl next to me mumbles under her breath, quiet enough that he can't hear her. BUT I did:) haha it was so funny. She called him a really mean name! Haha but that's okay because he was definitely acting like one. It didn't help me concentrate on my test any better.

3. I can't decide how to make my self-portrait. I want to have things I like but I also want to have me pulling a funny face. It's due next Wednesday and I can't think of anything! I also can't decide on one thing for my final photography pictures... Ah! So difficult!

Happier notes:)

I hate when I realize that I have homework due... at midnight... then it closes and says LATE, in giant red letters. Yep, not very fun. I have come to realize that it is totally better to not do bad on assignments then it is to just do the dumb work in the first place.

Anyway, on a happier note, I have just finished watching some episodes of Kidhistory and it is so freakin funny! I love those kids! I hope I can one day, have children as cute as they are! What a fun idea to film them telling stories then having the dads act out their stories... :) Whoever thought of that should be classified as 'Genius'!

I am totally loving my life! I know that sounds cliche and all but I do. It's so fun! My job is great, and so are the people I work with. It's nice to be excited to go to work and hang out with all your friends. Every Thursday I change the marquee at the theaters with the help of Chance and Deanna. Those two have become two of my very best friends. School is going... alright. I just wish I could sign up for classes next semester!! Dumb RAC number necessity... I am not going to get into any awesome classes or the classes I need! Oh well, I suppose. I can't do anything about that one:\ I might be getting another job:) Which is fabulous because I know that money may not buy happiness but it can sure get you close. Being poor doesn't get you anywhere near anything!! I'm also looking into another one on top of that so that equals two other jobs!! Woot!

The end.

Wish it was a snow day...

It has been snowing for the past two days... bummer? Totally!! As I sit here, in the hallway of the Centrum waiting for class, I am listening to Jack Johnson Radio from Pandora.com. Outside it is practically blizzard-ing and everyone seems to be enjoying it! Or so they make others perceive... ?

So in my math class, my teacher told us a super hilarious joke:
"A panda walks into a bar and sits down, orders food- a sandwich- and a drink. As soon as he is finished, he whips out a gun and shoots up the place. When he turned to leave, the bartender asks him, 'Dude! Why did you just do this?' The panda turns to him and says, 'I'm a panda! that's what I do. Look it up!' The bartender pulls out a dictionary, because all bartenders have them ever so handy behind their bar, and looks up panda bears; Panda Bear: a Chinese mammal. He eats shoots and leave."


Holy cow!! it was the funniest joke ever! All of us were laughing hysterically... it took up almost 10 minutes so class was soon over. It was great. :)
