Da Fam!

Let's just say I'm thankful for my family! I spent an hour talking to my brother today. I haven't seen or talked to him since conference. Crazy right?! Well I called my house trying to talk to my mom and my brother answered and we just started talking. It was so fun. He is CRAZY but then again so am I. I laughed pretty hard but I also got to hear about his life and i'm really proud of him, and all that he is doing.

I think i have been getting homesick lately because I don't get to go home very often and it just seems weird to me. I miss my siblings and all the laughs we have when we are together. I never really thought that I would get to this point...when I was living at home my siblings were just crazy and I didn't want to spend a ton of time with them, but now I miss them all the time.

I am so so EXCITED for thanksgiving. Because I get to go home! Yay! And it also means that the semester will be ending in 3 weeks after that. :) Weird but Great!

Riley....

Can I just say that I am a MAJOR Riley Nelson fan?! Even though he didn't play the second half as well as I would have hoped he still did a lot better then what I have been seeing for the past couple weeks. I mean Heaps is a great quarterback...at least he could be if he fulfilled his potential, but I feel like Riley just wants it more. Ya know? I just hope that Riley can get us up to speed very very soon, because I can't handle this nervous almost nauseous feeling before every game. I just want to know that we can pull off a win before even starting the game.

Well

It feels good to be home! haha. Weird, I know. I was packing up some stuff from my apartment and then I went to my other home. I guess it's just strange packing to go home, instead of packing to go away from home. Also i'm glad I got to see my family. They really are wonderful. They totally missed me! Haha thats what I was going for. Also congratulations to my wonderful team yesterday! Even though it wasn't as good as I know we can be, I am still proud. Also I must give a shout out to Cody Hoffman! Man that run was AMAZING! Haha :)
Well thats all. Hope you all are enjoying your lives.

OH MY!!!!

Can I just say.....HOW PROUD I AM FOR THE WIN ON SATURDAY! Although it wasn't our best game played, we still pulled out the win. Our offense was pretty bad, but our defense ROCKED! They are amazing. Bronco truly knows what he is doing. Okay thats all :)

Well...

Well kids I did it! I moved to college. It felt really strange the first night, but I think I really am going to like it. My apartment is really cute and I live with 2 other girls. I share a room with one and the other is in her own room. I have known AnneMarie(my room room mate) since sophomore year and I had a strange idea that we should live together. And as of now it has worked out really well. We seem to get along really good right now so that is a plus.
The other room mate is Alana. She is from Nevada and she seems really nice. :) I haven't really had a chance to get to know her really well. But we will be living together for a whole year so I don't feel like it will be a problem.
On another note I am at BYU and I love it. I have wanted to go here since I was a wee little baby. K probably not that early but for most of my life. When I got accepted I was so so SO excited. It was  a joyous occasion. I am a little scared for the work load but I am pretty sure I will be able to do it. :)
Also with BYU comes there wonderful sports. BYU football has been a major thing in my house all of my years growing up there. I have become obsessed. Some would say I have a problem but I think that is the exact opposite of how it really is. I love it! Last night we had a rally sort of thing in the stadium and we Bronco Mendenhall, BYU's head coach, talked to us. I was going crazy and it was so fun! The band also played the cougar fight song, and you know what I could sing word without even looking at the screen! Is that awesome or what?! Haha :)
Also one last piece of news...I GOT A JOB! I thought I had a job at the MTC mail room but it turns out that they filled all those positions. So I searching and getting a little frustrated because I couldn't find a job, and I had a ton of people praying for me and so I was just like why the crap can I not find a job?! But my cousin told me that she heard that there was an opening at the MTC cafeteria. So I called them yesterday and they hired me right then and there! It was so awesome! I feel so blessed to be able to work there and I am excited to do so. :) :) :)
So as of right now my life is going pretty good :)

Harry Potter!

Once upon a time there was a young child who just wanted a book to read. She chose this book and began to read it. Do you know what she found? Well I will tell you. She began the Harry Potter Series. Little did she know that it would become her favorite series ever and that the books would become movies(which are also very good). And that the movies would be absolutely wonderful.
Well friends that is the story of me, or at least some of it. These books have been a part of my life for longer then I can remember. I have read the books so many times so that I have lost count. To end the very long but wonderful journey, I went and saw the last movie last night, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II.
I loved it! It was so so SO good. I can't even believe its over. I love them so much and this is just strange to think that my life long best friend is gone..... :( Many people say that this is just the beginning of the end, but get a hold of yourself. Harry Potter is over and it will not come back again.
Well to end on a happy note..I love Harry Potter and I am so glad I got to experience it. :)

and to think it all began with this and that it would come to

Slightly Obsessed.....


This is one of the classic moments on the show. Whenever they do something cool, retarted, solve a case, or even just make a funny joke, they bump fists and say "Whaaat" in really high pitched voices. I love it :)


So there is a show out there that I like to call "Psych." It probably, or at least I could say, is one of the greatest shows ever! It absolutely blows my mind. (Okay so its not that huge but I still love it.) It is about two guys, Shawn Spencer and Burton Guster. The first listed is a "pretend" psychic and the second is always called his sidekick. They, together, solve crimes for the Santa Barbara Police Department. Now Shawn really isn't a psychic, he just has a really keen eye for detail. He can spot the most random things and that is how he solves cases for the SBPD.
Not only is this show thrilling, it is quite funny, maybe even hilarious. Both of them together make the most ridiculous jokes. It is rather entertaining.
This show has become quite obsession in my home. My sister, brother and me, plus a couple of my cousins all really enjoy watching this show. We quote it all the time and two of them actually have Psych t-shirts. So although I titled this post slightly obsessed, you could probably say totally obsessed. :)
Currently, the show is in a between seasons point. They finished the fifth season in 2010 and they are showing the new sixth season in the fall. I can't even wait, but since I have to....I am re-watching the first 5 seasons. It brings me much joy!

Just some memories...

Well folks, I graduated! It has been an absolute blast! My senior year was one of the most rewarding, and challenging years, but I am so grateful for it. I love all the wonderful friends I have made. Even though I did lose a couple friends, I am grateful for the opportunity I had to be their friend in the first place. I wouldn't change my experiences for anything.
From L-R: Danielle Call, Tawni Barrett, Natalie Draper, Me, Monica Wood
I would have to say that these girls with me are the greatest girls!


One of my favorite things I did this year was being in the musical Scarlett Pimpernel. It was absolutely wonderful! I can't even tell you how much fun it was. I was at the school all the time and I made a ton of wonderful friends. Even though I wasn't on stage all the time, in my opinion that was a reward in and of itself because i'm not the best actress.

I'm the one in the purple dress in the front on the left side. Can you find me?

This is me and Mason Sutton. He is so wonderful! He is one of the great friends I made in the musical.

Another experience I really enjoyed was Madrigals. This is the Senior Choir at Viewmont High School. I loved it so much! I would say that my greatest friends are in that group. We have so much fun together and I am so glad I got the opportunity to be in Mads.

I'm in the back row three in from the left. Do you see me?
I love these people! They are so great!
All in all, this year was a very successful one and one to remember forever! I loved this year and I will never forget it!
