Oh my heck I am so sorry for not writing! I've been so busy lately! The end of the term is killing me and I have so much to update you guys on!

On November 30 we had a family party with Aunt Lisa and Aunt Natalie and their families. Jenny, Annemarie and I took pictures so I'm going to post some of them soon. I'll send all of them to you, Haley, then you can see all the fun we had and how much we miss you guys.

On December 2 I went to an elementary school and interviewed a little girl for creative writing. We are writing a childrens book! Then that night I went to Temple Square with my young womens group and took some awesome pictures of the Temple. I'll post those when I get a chance to.

On the 3rd Bryan had a Christmas performance with his acting group and it was super cute. I love watching him act plus I have some friends that were in it too and its always fun to watch them.

On the 4th I went to the gateway mall with the fashion club at my school. I took pics there too and I'll post those later too lol. But it was a lot of fun. I love the gateway its absolutely amazing.

Other than that nothing exciting has really happened I have just been super busy with all the homework and crap for school cuz the end of the term is coming up after Christmas break. Last night I finished my childrens book and on Tuesday I get to go to the elementary school again and give it to the little girl that its about. Her name is Ellysa she is so so so cute haha. This Tuesday is my choir concert I'm super excited haha and on Thursday I get to go to Salt Lake with my choir and sing in the Joseph Smith building. It should be really fun. Well I'm gonna go cuz my hands are FREEZING! Tttyl!

Yay!!! I finally have David Archuletas album!!! I'm excited lol I love it so if you havent listened to it you should go check it out.
So this week has been really lame so far but its only Wednesday so maybe it will get to be more fun lol. Monday was super lame I just went to school and you know how school is. Its boring especially when you have crazy teachers. Yesterday Davids Album came out (haha I should probably stop saying that) and my mom went and got it for me at like 5:30 in the morning! So I got to listen to it while I got ready for school and it was amazing. I went to school and people were talking about the CD so that was SO awesome! Today has been really lame. There was a flag ceremony this morning and it was kinda weird haha but hey it got me out of math. I had A Cappella today too and that class is so much fun. We got a new Christmas song today its really cool its like a Christmas spiritual like what the black women sing but its like Christmas lol. Oh and today when I was walking down the hallway there was a poster of David Archuleta hanging on the wall and my friend stole it and gave it to me lol so I now have a poster of David Archuleta haha its great.
I'm really cold. The weather is getting colder and colder and I really dont like it because I dont like the cold. So I've run out of things to say so I will now post the picture of the day lol.

In honor of David and his album todays picture is of David lol I love this picture is adorable!

Lots of love!

Alright so I'm still listening to Davids Album (of course) I'm basically obsessed with it, I wonder whats going to happen to me after I get it on my iPod in like 3 days. Haha I'll become some crazy David Archuleta monster. But thats not important haha.

Yesterday I went shopping! I havent been shopping in awhile and I got a really cute jacket lol. Oh and this wont make sense to any of you so I'll have to explain it. So in Biology we are trying to hatch some weird shrimp eggs or whatever and my friend Dominic is in my group (Haha I love him he's funny) and so we left class together and my friend Melody comes up to me and him and asks what we did in class and he says "We made babies!" and coming from him it was really funny because he is SO innocent minded so its the last thing you would ever think that he would say so it was really funny.

I dont really have much to say today haha my life is boring but I've been having fun with lyrics from Davids song and photo editing. I've been finding a picture and putting some lyrics on it and its been fun. So for the picture of the day is one that I edited of me with Davids song lyrics from the song "You Can"

I had fun with it cuz it made my eyes look green when they are really blue lol.

♥ you all!

11.05.08

Alright so our nation is dead haha Obama is president and that kinda scares me, sorry if you like Obama but it scares me.
Halloween was pretty cool but it rained of course haha
I just dont really have a whole lot to say right now
Oh! This weekend I went to Park City and went shopping! Haha I love shopping its one of my favorite things!
I found the full version of David Archuletas album on 97.1zht.com and I have listened to the whole thing and lemme tell ya the song "You Can" is by far my favorite. Its just him singing with a guitar playing in the background and its basically perfect I love it so much! I'm addicted to this song so you should go look it up even if you arent a David Archuleta fan because its so amazing to see what he can do and its a cute song too lol.
I'm excited for Thanksgiving break, school is driving me crazy I really dont like it lol.
I think from now on when I write a blog I'm going to end it with a picture of the day haha so yeah here is your picture.

Yep its me and David Archuleta (since I was talking about his song and album it was only fitting) I look really bad in it but I was freaking out I was super super happy haha I love that boy.

Well theres the pic!

Luv you all!

Ok so I've been kinda obsessed with editing pics lately so here are some of my recent ones (no one reads this thing anyways haha)

Cousins by blood

Friends by choice

Alyssa Marie

Just another pair of friends...

Completely crazy in every way

William Bryan & Alyssa Marie

Best friends and worst enemies

Hannah Banana & Lyssa Loo

Tattered and torn but still standing

Friends come and go but family is forever

10.20.08

Oooook! So lets just start off by saying Haley you need a blog lol I keep you updated on my life but I have no clue what goes on in urs haha oh and Jenny says hi

So this week has just been insane. Monday was lame though so that doesnt count lol. Tuesday I had a choir concert haha I love A capella its the best. We were amazing as usual. I got to sing in Russian!! Omg its hard to speak Russian! We had fall break this week so I've been outta school for 5 days but I have to go back tomorrow =( gah I really dont want to go back and deal with all my crazy teachers plus its the end of term and all my teachers seem to plan out when they are going to give out crap for all of us to do and they all do it around the same time so I've had mondo homework that I've had to do and it sucks haha well anyways enough of that. We are getting our kitchen remodeled so I've been basically living downstairs in the family room cuz of it. They put tile in on saturday and we couldnt walk on it that day or yesterday so to get into the house we had to hop over from the door to the living room do you have any idea how hard that is to do in a skirt?!

Hannah and I decided that our english teacher is crazy. She just sits there and talks and talks and talks about stuff we already know. For the past idk month she has been "teaching" us how to write a paragraph. I think I know how to do that already its not that hard! You see what I'm typing now? That is a paragraph! Geez stupid english teacher.

Ok so this kinda funny thing happened to me on I think it was Thursday. So I took my bro and his friend and Hannah to Sonic and we got there and there was his old lady just sitting there. My brother and his friend are really loud when they hang out so they were screaming lol it was funny but then the old lady turns to us and says "Could you stop yelling? I just had heart surgery and its hurting my ears" Ok first of all your heart and your ears are NOT linked together second she needs to speak more clearly. My brother didnt hear what she said so he went over and asked he what she said and she told him that her brains were coming out of her head! Yeah she was weird. But thats not even the end of it. She orders a bunch of food like 5 hamburgers, 6 giant drinks, 7 orders of fries and some other crap and she sits down and starts to eat ALL of it! No wonder she had heart surgery! She eats too much crap thats bad for her heart!!! Yeah she was weird lol. Well that was basically my week in a nut shell. Other stuff happened but I dont want to make this too long haha so I'm gonna go now ttyl!

10.13.08 {Sadies recap!}

Haha ok so the last time I wrote if you remember I told you that I asked someone to the sadies dance at my school. Well that dance was on Saturday!

It was so much fun. We started off the day date by going to Jen's house and having some lunch. That went longer than expected but it was so much fun lol. The couples were Me and my date Jared Terry, Hannah Clark and Paul Bauman, Jen Bullock and Danny Davis, Kassidy Bradford and James (dont know his last name lol), Brittany Prows and Carson Tregaskis, and Mary (I dont know her last name either and I probably should) and Jon (I dont know his last name either). After lunch we went to Miracle Bowl and went skittle bowling! If you dont know what that is I can explain it to you if you ask me. After bowling we decided to go to Baskin Robins cuz for some reason we wanted ice cream haha. We ate the ice cream and went back to Jens house and played boxers or briefs (no its not a dirty game lol) and we played a donut game. I'm probably going to have to explain the donut game anyways so I'll explain it now. We gave each guy a bowl with 6 powdered donut holes in it and whoever ate all of them first had to kiss their date on the cheek with their powdery lips. It was hysterical. No my date didnt win but it was all good I didnt really care lol and you will see why later. So after that we decided to bring the guys back home so we could get ready for the dance. The car I was in was with Mary and Jon, Hannah and Paul and me and Jared and we were in a truck. What she had was a cover thingy over the back of it and there were seats in the back and it was so much fun lol well anyways we got ready then picked them up again. After we got them we went to the school to get pictures but then the guy runing the whole thing got mad at us and told us to leave because in order to be in the picture we had to pay and we didnt want to pay but the other half of our group did so we left and went to Hannahs to take pics. After that we went out to eat at Wingers and yeah not much to tell there lol. So we got back into the truck to go to the dance and it was FREEZING inside of the truck so our dates kept us girls warm lol. We got to the dance a little late but it was ok and we just danced for like 3 hours it was great. Then the last slow song came on and it was sad because we didnt want the dance to end =( so Jared and I danced and at the end of the song he kissed my hand like they do in those old movies with the couples dancing or when they meet someone new idk if you know what I'm talking about. So we got back into the truck to take the guys home =( I walked Jared up to the door and he hugged me and just held me there for like ever lol then he told me I looked gorgeous and some other stuff that was way sweet then kissed my cheek=) Man he is so smooth! I didnt even see it coming! So that was my date lol it was so much fun! I'm supposed to be getting pics emailed to me real soon so I can post them as soon as I get a chance. I hope I'll be able to figure the picture thing on this out cuz I couldnt do it before lol. Ttyl!

10.08.08

Wow its been awhile since I last wrote. A looooooooong while. So not a whole lot has happened. I'm in the prosses of changing my friends and you have no idea how hard it is. I love my old group so so SO much but there is so much drama all the time that I cant handle it anymore. Idk its just confusing.

Since I last wrote I've asked someone to the sadies dance! His name is Jared Terry he's amazing haha I love him. Not like that but you know what I mean haha. The dance is this saturday and I'm going with a group of like 22 people which is 11 couples counting myself and we still dont know what we are going to do for our day date. We really need to get on that.

Today I had a math test. Yeah it was lame I dont think I did well but I dont think I failed either. Yearbook I took pics with Kirstie as usual lol that class can be boring sometimes. A Cappella is the most amazing class ever! Everyone is super funny and its like insane! Haha yeah I love it. And get this for A Cappella tour we get to go to Cali! We're going to Disneyland and we're gonna sing there and we're going to see Hollywood Blvd. and go up by the Hollywood sign and sing in an outside concert hall thats up there oh oh and we get to have a dinner cruise! We're gonna go on a boat and we're gonna have dinner then have a dance! I'm so excited!! Haha I love cali its amazing if I could live there I would! Well gotta go I need to finish some homework that I keep putting off cuz I hate homework lol ttyl! I'll try to write more often I just keep forgetting lol so sorry about that.

09.14.08 {Warning it might be angry}

Alright well since you are reading this you have obviously not seen the warning so I will say it again. I'm a bit angry right now and I just need to get it out this may be kinda idk angry? So you have been warned.

Ok so I decided that the world sucks. Everything right now just sucks and it feels like there is no end to it. Friends are good, family is cool but idk just religion wise I'm not too thrilled. I believe in my religion there is no question about that but I just dont even want to go to church anymore because of all the stupid people. They think they are all that and that everyone loves them when in reality they arent perfect. Take my Sunday school for example. There are people in there who dont talk to me otherwise whether I make the effort or not until they want something. My dad is the sunday school teacher for my class and we never have class outside and they want to have it outside all the flippin time and do they ask him themselves? No. They ask me to ask him. Its just stupid I mean do you really think I'm going to do that for you when you dont even talk to me? Its just so stupid to me I just dont know what to do anymore. I really dont like my ward at all. There are only a few people I actually like and I'm not going to name names. I've tried to find the good I've tried to see them as good people but nothing works. Ok well I better stop writing before I start saying things I shouldnt. Ttyl!

09.12.08

Alright well life is just plain strange right now.

Yesterday Fox 13 came to my school cuz we were the cool school of the week. It really wasnt that exciting. What I was really trying to focus on yesterday was the fact that it was the 7 year anniversary of when our nation was attacked. It just got me thinking that it was really that long ago. I have a terrible memory and I remember everything about that day. I remember where I was when it happened, I remember the 2nd place going into the 2nd tower, I remember that my friends and I were all scared. Its just so vivid to me. Idk its just weird for me.

Tonight is our homecoming game and carnival. No I didnt get asked to homecoming but oh well its not the end of the world. I cant really think of anyone I would really want to go with anyways so I guess I'm not missing out on a whole lot. I hope we win our game tonight we lost our homecoming game last year.

My phone decided it wants to be dumb. I got the screen to come back on but it will probably turn off again and not turn back on so idk what to do. I need a new phone but I like this one because it has David Archuletas autograph on it. I just love it lol its amazing. Well I'm gonna go now just thought I would write! Ttyl!

Lyssa Loo

09.09.08

Aww dang its not 999 oh well I guess that will be next year haha. Well life has been pretty boring I'm actually really bored now which is why I'm writing this very pointless junk filled entry of randomness haha yes I name things.

Alright so I spose you want to hear about my past week but truthfully nothing has really happened to me in the past week. Yeah I wrote a blog exactly a week ago talking about my amazing day but lately things have been kinda idk dull. Except friday that was fun. Riding golf carts, taking pictures, going to a football game [which we lost :( ] and saturday I got to go to a ranch lol but other than that life has been pretty darn boring.

I have to write a poem for creative writing and I really dont know what to write about I mean I'm not very creative so it takes me awhile to get stuff flowing throughout my head which is why my blogs are so so SO boring! Idk I guess thats life. And now its raining, I love the rain haha maybe I should go run in it...nah I dont have the energy to do that.

Oh oh oh! I almost forgot! Fox 13 is coming to my school Thursday to shoot some stuff and Big Budda is gonna be there! (For those of you who dont know who he is, he's a news guy who does the morning stuff on good day Utah) but the downside is that if you want to be on TV you have to be there at like 715 and I dont think I have the energy or capacity to do that! Not to mention tomorrow I have an early morning choir rehersal oh well my instructor is bringing donuts so I guess its not all bad right?

Wow this is a lot of pointless rambling I guess I just have a lot of stuff to ramble about. Well I'm gonna go now before my rambling takes up the whole page haha luv ya!

09.02.08

Omg I am SO sorry for abandoning you for so long. Lately things have been hectic. School started and I'm taking a bunch of weird and hard classes so I can get them out of the way so I won't have to take them as a senior. So I have been having a lot of homework and its been really stressful but today I just had to write lol.

Today has been great!

Math was boring but I actually for the most part understand it so that always a wonderful plus

Yearbook was...odd we just looked at pictures and all that jazz

Acapella is like the best class in the universe! I love that class so so SO much! We are going to Disneyland for choir tour and it's going to be awesome. Today we actually sang for most of the class period I loved it lol

Lunch was so much fun lol with Melody and her wanting to go to Albertsons and then ending up at McDonalds for sundaes was really fun lol that crazy driver

Seminary was so so SO fun! I usually don't like seminary but we had to rotate and talk to all the people in the class and I'm not very outgoing I'm really shy so I thought it would be so awkward. But it wasn't. I turned into someone I didn't know! I was actually outgoing and tried to talk to the people and they talked to me! And I finally talked to this really cute kid in my class who is a sophmore (gasp!) but he's really nice so that was really fun haha

Ok so I come home and the best thing EVER happened to me! I can't really talk about it publicly so if you wanna know leave a comment, text me, call me idc just do something to get ahold of me and I will most likely tell you but ahh!!! It was awesome! Haha well gotta run my mom needs me for something and I'm getting sidetracked cuz I'm trying to sing and write this all at the same time haha its not as easy as it sounds! Well ttyl!

8.08.08

Haha its 888! I think thats funny for some odd reason well anyways I just figured I'd update ya'll on whats goin on! And no I am not a hick I just like saying ya'll lol.

Alright so Monday I hung out with Sammie and Carson and we just acted like retards and watched the teen choice awards which I have never watched before I only watched it cuz David Archuleta was there haha.

Tuesday me Sammie and Carson went to the mall and just did stuff there

Wednesday my mom took me up to Draper and we went to Rue 21 and I bought a ton of stuff! It was awesome. Then we went to the University mall and we ran into Sammie! So me and Sammie walked around the mall looking at stuff.

Yesterday I had to go to the eye doctor (blech) I had never been to one before so it was kinda weird but I had to get contacts and glasses but my glasses havent come in yet and so I'm wearing contacts and they are WEIRD! I can see really well far away now but I cant see up close anymore its really irritating its like my eyes wont focus or something. So I did that then went and got some stuff to make jewelry with

Today I went to a movie and that was is lol today has been boring but really relaxing which is nice cuz I've been really stressed out lately. Well thats all for now ttyl! Luv you all!!

Lyssa Loo

Oh if you have a myspace go find me on it all my pics from Florida are on it if you want to see them!

8.03.08 Florida

I'm baaaaaaaaack!! Well last night I got home from Florida so I will not proceed to tell you all about it lol. We left around 745am last Sunday morning to go to the airport, we arrived around 845am and boarded the plane around 9. We flew for 4 and a half hours. We got to Orlando around oh idk 530ish Florida time and went straight to the rental car place. We got our car (which was very ugly btw) and drove for about an hour to find our hotel. We were staying at the Hampton Inn just a few minutes from Disneyworld. We got go our hotel and we freshened up and put our stuff away and we went out to dinner at TGI Fridays just down the street. We finished eating and went to Walmart which took us forever to find and it was raining and when it rains in Florida is rains HARD so we had to run from the car to the store and from the store back to the car again and it was actually fun lol. After we got wet we headed back to our hotel where we got ready for bed.

Monday we woke up early and we got ready and went to Epcot! Epcot is way cool they have this ride called Test Track its awesome if you ever go to Epcot ride it its awesome. It also rained while we were in Epcot and it was super hot so it felt good but we got soaked.

Tuesday we went to The Magic Kingdom which is basically Disneyland but I think Disneyland is better but thats just my opinion.

Wednesday we went to HollyWood Studios. This was probably one of the best parts of the trip for me. They have this rollercoaster called Rockin Rollercoaster and its awesome! Its almost completely in the dark and the whole ride your rockin out to Aerosmith! It probably one of the best rides ever! Lol. They also have this awesome stunt show that got rained out the first time to we had to go back like an hour later and luckly this time it didnt get rained out. After we left we went to Olive Garden and had dinner haha.

Thursday we went to Animal Kingdom which actually isnt that great theres not much there to do so after we decided Animal Kingdom was lame we went back over to Epcot and got in line for Test Track again but guess what? It rained and they kicked everyone out of the line because part of the ride is outside so they had to shut down till it stopped which was way lame. So they gave everyone at the front of the line complimentary fast passes so we could get back on it when they re-opened it. So we wandered around in the rain for awhile then decided to go wait till they re-opened the ride and not too long after we got there they did! So we were some of the first people to ride it. After Test Track we went back to our hotel and packed up to go to Longboat Key but first we stopped for some food at TGI Fridays! We finished eating and we drove for about an hour and a half to the Key. We finally made it and it was GORGEOUS! We got settled in and decided to go for a walk on the beach since the beach was super close. Then we came back and slept cuz we were all super tired

Friday we all got up rather late and went down to breakfast which was pretty much on the beach (we stayed at a Hilton) and was yummy! haha yeah. Then we finished eating and went to the room and got ready to go to the beach. The beach was so pretty! Then it got really really hot so we went back inside and relaxed all day. Then we were all hungry so we went to this local Italian restaurant that we had never heard of for dinner and it was specatular! We went back to the hotel and went for yet another walk on the beach at sunset.

Saturday we got up and went to the beach again for awhile and stared at the ocean for the last time. Then we went back inside and packed our suitcases and at noon we had to leave the hotel so we went to Walmart and bought Breaking Dawn. After we went to Walmart we drove for an hour to the air port where we sat for what felt like forever for our plane to arrive it was the longest wait EVER. We boarded the plane and set off for our flight back to Utah. We got home around 9 at night.

Florida was so much fun dispite the humidity and how hot it was. I loved it eventhough my hair didnt lol but it was so gorgeous if you have never been to Florida you need to before you die haha yeah well thats it for ya ttyl!

Just something I made

I was bored so I made this lol

*~7.25.08~*

Eeeeee!!! haha wow that was random! Ok so things have been pretty good I finally got around to editing my blog so now it looks a little bit more happy rather than the last one which was like dark and depressing. Now its pink! Which I find very odd for me to pick cuz I'm not a total girly girl lol well anyways back to what I was going to write.

Sunday I went up to Salt Lake for a family thing with my dads side of the family I'm always alone when we go up there so it was a little irritating but oh well I played with my little cousins they are so adorable!!

Monday I didnt do anything special or anything worth writing about so yeah that day is pretty much a dud

Tuesday I hung out with Hannah most of the day and I got a new iPod!! Haha yeah I love it so much!

Wednesday I went to a funeral for the lady that lived next door to me...it was really really sad I feel so bad for their family but at least the hardest part is over right? It was just so sad...Then that night I hung out with Carson, Sammie and Hannah. Me, Carson and Sammie walked to Maceys and got food, pizza, and a movie and went back to my place and watched it and played the Wii, Hannah came over when we got back cuz I invited her lol. Sammie had to leave around 11 and Carson left around 11:30 and Hannah left at like 12:30 lol we talk so much about the most random things hahaha.

Yesterday was pioneer day and I just basically stayed home and went and got things ready for Florida then that night I hung out with Hannah outside my house for a bit again talking about random things. Now you are probably wondering why I hang out with her so much lol well its mainly because shes my neighbor so its easy access and I dont have to travel anywhere to get her lol plus shes fun to hang out with!

Today omg is going to be crazy! So will tomorrow. I leave for Florida on Sunday and so We will all be scrambling around trying to get everything ready to leave! Ahh!!! Oh and if you want me to call you when I'm at the beach or something just leave a comment or txt me or call me and tell me. For those of you whos numbers I have I will be sending out a txt to all of you while in the car or waiting to board the plane reminding you again so yeah. Have an awesome rest of the week! I'll probably either write tomorrow night again or I will write when I get back and hey maybe if we have internet in the hotel I can steal my dads laptop that I think he is bringing and write when I'm there! Luv you all!!!

07.17.08 {Warning its mostly about David Archuleta!}

OMG!!!! I am so so so sorry for those of you who actually read this thing that I didnt write a blog on Tuesday. Alright so if you dont want to hear about my David Archuleta expericence then dont read this blog cuz thats pretty much all it will be about.

Alright so on Monday I got to go to the American Idol tour concert and omg it was amazing! I had convinced my mom to take me and my friend that morning to wait for the buses to show up. We got there at like 10am and waited for the buses to show up. Around 1:30 they finally did! I got to meet Brooke, Syesha, Kristy and Ramielle first. After I got them to sign my shirt and got pictures of them off in the distance I could see Carly, David Cook and David Archuelta walking toward the crowd. Archie came out and the screams were deafening. I sat there hoping and praying that he would start on our side and he did!!! He finally got to me and I introduced myself to him and he signed my shirt and my phone and I got a pic with him! We talked for awhile and I decided to ask him for a hug and he said he would love to give me a hug! Then we continued talking after he gave me a hug. Then he had to go to the other side of people and he was all like "I'm so sorry but I have to go to the other side" and we told him it was ok and he gave me ANOTHER hug! I didnt even ask for it! Then he was gone. Then we got to meet David Cook and Carly and Jason Castro. They were all really nice especially David Archuleta. Then I waited around for awhile after everyone had pretty much left and I got to talk to Davids dad. He was way nice too. Then he had to go in and talk to David about something lol. As I was walking to my moms car I turned around and I saw Michael Johns!!! So I got a pic with him and got to talk to him for awhile too. He was super super nice. Then he had to go in so all in all I got everyones autograph on my shirt except Chikeze =( but it was fun anyways. So we drove home and got there at about 4. We waited for my dad and fixed our hair and all that jazz. Then we left at 5 to go to the concert! You could just feel the excitment in the room as everyone performed. Then finally the moment I had been waiting for. David Archuleta rose out of the stage floor playing the piano! The screams were super loud but thankfully I could still hear him singing Angels. After Angels he walked up the stairs on the stage and he started to sing Apologize! It was so awesome! Then after that song he started talking to the audience telling us how much he appriceated us for voting for him and standing by him throughout Idol and he proceeded to sing Stand By Me! He even danced a little and he sang a small part of Beautiful Girls (by Sean Kingston) and it was SO amazing! Then he started talking about how when you care about someone you need to tell them how much you love them and all that jazz and he sang When You Say You Love Me by Josh Groban! After singing he then began to cry (aww!) and he said "Look what you made me do! Gosh!" And then he wiped his eyes and laughed. He is a wonderful performer and I have never heard anyone sing like that in my entire life!! Then David Cook came out and sang and he was pretty good too. I had the best day of my life on Monday I got to meet my Idol, talk to him, hug him, get a picture with him, get an autograph, AND hear him sing.

Tuesday I hung with Hannah all day haha thats why I didnt write

Yesterday I went and got shoes for Florida and I was kinda sick from screaming all day Monday so yeah haha

Well I hope you loved reading about David lol ttyl!!!

07.13.08

AHHH!!!! Ok I'll explain the scream later promise but now that its outta my system I can finally write! Alright so this week nothing eventful really happened except this weekend was totally sweet. My parents left for an anniversary trip on Friday so my brother and I had the house to ourselves! We started off by playing Mario Kart for Wii and continued by playing Lego Indiana Jones. Now you would never think that I play video games but I do hahaha well anyways. After the video game craze my bro and I decided to take some lame pictures cuz we were super bored and wanted a break from the games for awhile. So we did that then we went to bed. I woke up the next morning which was Saturday for those of you who dont know the days of the week in order and we just kinda sat around and chilled for a bit then we decided to clean up the house so we wouldnt have to do it later when my parents came home. Eventually my parents came home and my dad decided he wanted to go out to eat and get ice cream. So we did that and it was yummy food is always a good thing. Tonight we are going to have people over like we do every sunday to have desert its gonna be fun as usual haha. Ok NOW I can explain my scream of excitement. Tomorrow is the American Idol concert!!! I'm so excited I cant even begin to tell you! And the best part is, is that I might be able to meet David Archuleta!!! I missed him the first time when he came to Utah for his homecoming thing but now I actually might be able to meet him!!! AHHH!!!!! Ok I'm done with the excitement now. I'll probably post a blog on either Tuesday or late tomorrow night to talk about the concert so if you dont wanna hear about it dont read it lol but I'm excited! K I'm gonna go now before the keyboard blows up lol ttyl!

Monday Hannah and I took a bunch of pictures of us just being stupid cuz we've never really done that before so that was really fun. Yesterday Hannah made me go with her to yw and we went to the Greek Orthodox church it was very...odd. When we got home her dad took us to Taco Amigo to get shakes mmmm their shakes are SO good! Then we went back to my house and played video games and acted like retards haha it was so fun. Today I've just gotten up and worked nothing really eventful is scheduled for today either so today will probably be a drag but hey I need to relax. This weekend my parents are leaving for an anniversary trip type thing so my brother and I will be home alone all weekend which will be fun we did it last year and had a blast. Next Monday is the American Idol concert! Yeah I sound SO lame for being excited for that but I am totally thrilled! Its gonna be fun!!

07.04.08

Hey hey hey! This week has been kinda uneventful but not really, it sorta depends on how you look at it so I guess I will start with Monday. On Monday I didnt do anything except work it was kinda boring haha but oh well thats life and I get paid so thats a plus. Tuesday I worked then ended up babysitting later it was really simple haha the kids are so easy. Wednesday I had to babysit the same people again cuz they wanted to go out for Alisha's birthday (shes the lady I babysit for) so I got paid for that too and that was nice haha. Yesterday was kinda the most eventful day out of this whole week so far. My mom decided she wanted to take me shopping to get some clothes for Florida since its going to be really really REALLY hot there so we were shopping pretty much all morning then we got home around like 2ish and didnt do anything for a little while and my dad came home early! It was amazing he never comes home early lol so anyways then my parents started talking about the American Idol concert that I'm going to as my brithday present on July 14 and I told them that if we show up at the E-center around 11am we might be able to meet all the idols (heck I just want to meet Archie lol) so I convinced my parents to take me and I just might be able to meet Archie! Ahh that would be awesome! Then we left for a baseball game in which our team lost it was a tragic loss to haha but oh well then they had fireworks at the end of the game so that was a plus. Today I have just gotten up and eaten donuts my dad went out and bought some for our breakfast soooo yeah. Later today my family is supposed to have a water fight haha it should be fun then we are going to BBQ and tonight the whole neighborhood is getting together to do fireworks! Well I gotta run. Happy 4th of July everyone!!

06.29.08

Geez I really have no idea where to start! Alright well on the 14 Hannah and I went to the parade and summerfest fireworks haha shes so awesome we have so much fun together! Then on the 17 my dad went to Hawaii (so jealous!) and came back the 21 so nothin really happend that week thats worth telling you about its actually kinda lame haha well he brought me back some stuff which was really nice of him considering that he was there on bussiness.

Alright now for THIS week haha. On Wednesday I went and saw Jordin Sparks with Sammie and she was AMAZING! I'll put up some pics so you can all see what she was doin and all that. She was just awesome! Then on Thursday my mom and I went and saw Little Women at the Hale and it was an...interesting play ok I didnt really like it, it was just too weird for me plus we had these cranky old people sitting behind us and they were SO loud it ruined it anyways. On Friday I went on a date haha it was fun theres not really much more I can type if you want more details ask me and I'll tell you everything I just cant write it all since well I would be talking FOREVER but I'm a girl its my job hahahaha. Then yesterday Hannah came over to my house again and we went swimming in our pool! Yes my dad FINALLY got it put up and I just realized that I am using a lot of capital letters in this post haha oops. We we bascially hung out most of the day and just did stupid things like we usually do haha like I've said before shes so much fun to hang out with. Well today has been boring home teachers came over and that was about it haha ttyl! Oh and sorry about this pictures of Jordin Sparks I keep trying to put the pictures at the end of this entry thingy and it wont work it just goes to the top lol so sorry about that!

06.14.08 {Ranting blog}

Well this isnt really a blog to talk about what has happened to me in the past few days I'm just gonna vent my thoughts. A lot has been on my mind lately and I just want to get it out there.

Do you ever feel like no matter what you do it isnt enough for everyone? You try and try and try to be what everyone wants you to be and you do everything you can for people but its simply not enough. Life is just really strange that way. People expect you to be someone or something your not because you isnt good enough for them. But what I've realized in the past few years is that you dont need to be what everyone wants you to be. People who dont like you for who you are are just stupid people. Be what you want to be. Be yourself. The world just cant seem to see that being you is enough for you and it should be enough for them too. The world manipulates people into thinking that they arent good enough or arent pretty enough, smart enough, spiritual enough, talented enough etc. the list could go on forever. No body is perfect. A lot of people think that they are perfect but they arent and they know it they just dont want to show it because they are afraid of feeling inferior. Me? I have felt inferior my whole life to everyone so whats the point of trying to be something that I'm not? I'm not afraid to feel inferior I'm used to it so why should I be what everyone wants me to be? Why shouldnt I be what I want?

People dont realize that even saying the slightest little thing can make someone start to think that they arent what everyone wants. The world is a cruel place and human beings arent exactly nice either. I know I have probably said things that have made people think that I dont like who they are. Everyone has its not uncommon to find in people. But when you are about to change and be what everyone wants you go be you have to think about this. If you become friends with the most popular people in school or you have the hottest boyfriend that you have always wanted or just stupid stuff like that you need to remember that they didnt like you before because you were being yourself and not what they wanted. You changed and became what they wanted and bam you got what you wanted. Although it may seem alright to be what they want and not what you want it really isnt. There are people out there who like you for who you are and want you to be who you are. I guess this whole ranting blog is just to simply say always be yourself not someone else. I've seen way too many people change themselves for others and its not worth it. No matter what your changing for its just not worth it. Always be yourself be what you want and everything works out for the better.

06.12.08

Alright well there hasnt really been anything happening lately. Last friday Brittnee had a birthday party and it was pretty fun except I had to leave early just randomly so that kinda sucked but for the most part it was awesome! That saturday we went and saw Indiana Jones and it was actually really really good the ending sucked though. Tuesday I hung out with Hannah and then she dragged me to yw (lol) but for the most part it wasnt too bad but it just reminded me of some things that I'm not gonna talk about. Tomorrow is summerfest I have no idea if I'll be going or not cuz my mom got lasik on her eyes today so now she can see so thats always a plus. But I think the most exciting thing that has happened to me lately is that yesterday my dad booked us a trip to Florida!! We're gonna go to Disneyworld, the Kenedy (sp?) space center and the beach and our hotel isnt too far from the beach so I'll be able to see it from the hotel window. Our origional plans were to go to San Diego and rent a condo on the beach and just spend a week or so on the beach but then my dad decided he would rather go to Florida haha cant say I blame him! Florida is gonna be amazing! Nice and warm! I can hardly wait! We fly out the 27th of July and come back sometime in August I havent gotten the date quite yet.

I've been doing a lot of work for my dad too which is always a good thing cuz I get paid! So since I'm gonna be gettin some money and since I'm goin to Florida I'm going to need to go shopping! So lemme know if you wanna go shopping anytime soon lol. Luv you all!

Alright well I would have written earlier but the web site people thought my blog was a spam blog and I couldn’t access it till they reviewed it. Talk about strange right? Well anyways this past week has been actually not terrible. On the 30th I had to go to my cousin’s graduation party and it was pretty boring there were a lot of people I have never seen before in my life so it was a little awkward. On the 31st my family and I went fourwheeling which was really fun since I haven’t done that since last year cuz of the stupid cold. We were out for pretty much the whole day and we forgot to bring sunscreen so my dad and I got burned really bad on our arms and now I have a line where my sleeves ended haha it looks so dumb. My bro and my mom didn’t get burned cuz they thought it was cold and wore long sleeves hahaha. Sunday was pretty...odd. I had an interview with my bishop for my birthday and it was one of the weirdest interviews I have ever had. You really don’t want to know what happened lol. Monday was my birthday! Lol yeah I'm finally 16! So we went up to Park City and Heber and just kinda wandered around it was fun. Then we came home and Sammie and I went shopping! I love shopping lol. Then around 6 my parents picked me up and we were going to go out to dinner at La Dolche Vita but it was closed =( so we went to The Olive Garden instead. Then we came home and had cake and ice cream and people just randomly started coming over and chillin with us so it kinda turned into a party. Tuesday nothin really happened it was kinda boring. Yesterday I went and saw Chronicals of Narnia Prince Caspian is was probably one of the longest movies I have EVER had to sit through! Then today has been pretty boring but I'm learning how to make necklaces and bracelets! It’s so fun! Haha yeah I know I have know life but whatever that’s just me I suppose! Well gotta run!
