Christmas fun!

Hey! So basically this last week was pretty good! I was out of school the whole week and on...I think it was Tuesday it snowed! Like a lot and it made me very happy. Thursday I went up to Farmington (I think) and visited my Grandma. We brought her Christmas present and such and it was pretty fun! Traffic on the way home was HORRIBLE though. The rest of the day I hung out with my family and got stuff ready for Christmas and wrapped a couple presents.
Friday was Christmas Eve! That day Austen was coming down to Provo to visit his sister so he came down a little bit earlier and we hung out. We wandered the mall then went over to my house and my mom gave him a present! Haha I love my mom. We spent quite a lot of time at my house talking to my parents and such actually. I think they are warming up to him lol which is a very good thing. Eventually he had to leave to go visit his sister so I went and got ready for dinner. We went to La Doce Vita for dinner (like we have for the past few years on Christmas eve) and it was gooooood.
Saturday was Christmas! My brother decided it would be fun to wake me up at like 620 when I was sleeping so wonderfully. He shook my whole bed! So he woke me up then my parents and we all walked to the living room half asleep to open presents. It was a great Christmas. I finally got a new phone! Yay!!! Oh, and a lightsaber. I'm officially a jedi!
Yesterday I went to my home ward for church again. Nothin special happened but it was nice to be with them again.
Today has been rather uneventful. I was kinda blah today so I played the Lego Harry Potter Wii game most of the day haha. Yes my love for Harry Potter is that great :) This friday is new years! Start thinking of resolutions and be safe and have fun :)
♥ you!

Weekend adventures

Hey everyone! I'm letting less time pass between posts! Its nice actually have time to do this and not have to do homework all the time. Yay for Christmas break!! :D alright so this weekend basically rocked. Friday I went to temple square and out for dinner and such with Austen and his parental units. They came over and met my parental units and it was kind of awkward but we ended up talking a lot about cats which was pretty entertaining and made things a tad bit less awkward. Then we left and drove up to Johnny Carinos in Sandy. Oh my yummy Italian food. Thats all I can think of to say about it lol. After, we continued our drive to Salt Lake City. We got there and there were TONS of people EVERYWHERE! We got out of the car and the first thing we saw was some people dressed up as Santa and Buddy The Elf (this picture can be seen on my facebook FYI). These people are basically epic. Then we went and listened to a choir for a little bit then Austen and I decided to go on our own little adventure around temple square. While on our little adventure we ran into some sister missionaries and we asked them to take a picture for us but then we ended up talking to them for quite awhile. It was quite amazing. Missionaries are pretty awesome people. Then we continued our adventure and Austens parents wanted to know where we were so we met up with them and started on our way home. Then it started snowing. Yay!

Saturday I did some Christmas shopping for people in my family and it was quite enjoyable. Then we watched the BYU game! They won!! Twas quite awesome.

Sunday was church. I went to my homeward instead of the singles ward and caused problems in sunday school and young womens. People just love talking to me I guess! lol jk. But yeah, Amelia had me come with her when I should have gone to the adult sunday school and relief society. Gotta love Amelia!

And now, I leave you with a picture from my epic Friday adventrue.
♥ you all! :)

Love Remains The Same (I'm currently listening to this song haha)

Hellloooo! I'm alive!! Finals are officially over and I'm done with my first semester of college! Finals officially suck. My English final was easy peezy lemon squeezy but my science and math finals were like death. It didnt exactly help that we were told all semester that we couldnt use calculators on our math final but then they changed that rule and didnt tell my professor so I was stuck with the stupid calculator on my phone. I had my health final today and last night I only studied for 2 hours but I'm pretty confident I owned that final. It was soooo easy! Not to mention I was the second person to finish only a couple seconds behind the first. Hopefully I wont have to take any classes again.
Saturday I did some shopping with my mom for Chrismas! Christmas shopping is tons of fun. Tuesday I went and did some Christmas shopping with my brother. He is fun to run errands with. We basically started blasting Def Leppard and had a jam session. The looks we got from cars next to us were priceless.
Tomorrow I'm goin to Temple Square with Austen and his parents! I'm sooo excited!!!! :D
So once upon a time it was the middle of December and there was no snow on my lawn. I am not happy at all. We need snow!! Its not Christmas without snow! It doenst even feel like Christmas. Its sooo weird! Usually I'm bouncing off the walls like a 5 year old around this time and I'm not doin that. Hopefully now that finals and such are over it will start to feel more like Christmas time.
These are the basics of my life at the moment. There is soooo much more but I'd rather not make it public info sooo yeah sorry. Have a fantastic day loyal blog readers!

Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times -Dumbledore

Hello faithful blog readers! Thanks for reading my very lame/complaining/boring blog entries. Makes me feel happy  :D anyways....

This last weekend was super duper fun. Friday I went up to Salt Lake with Katie. We were gonna go see the Temple Square lights buuut due to us not thinking clearly we didnt get to. But we did go see Tangled and looked at the lights at the Gateway. Twas very much fun. I'm so thankful to have wonderful friends. Even if they are few and far between, I'd rather have a few close friends that I can trust rather than 100 "friends" that I cant trust and dont care about me. So yeah.

Saturday was verrrry relaxing. I ended up watching Eclipse with my mom. Really stupid movie. Actually, that whole series is lame. Sorry you Edward Cullen obsessed fans but real men dont sparkle, they defeat dark wizards.

Sunday was the family Christmas party with my moms side of the family! We started off with delicious food (as usual) and ended up downstairs and played our yearlly white elephant gift exchange thing. The game was way fun this year. I ended up with money! (which my family brought haha). I love my family they all rock. Oh, and to Cali family: we all missed you!

Monday I took my first college final! It was my English final and we had to respond to the question "what grade do I deserve and why?" I pretty much spent 2 pages bragging about how awesomely smart I am (hahahahah i wish, but still). Hopefully I'll pass! Next week is the last week of school and its finals week. You might as well just kill me now. I'm scared of my science final. Pray for me!

God is real, love is real, happiness can be found anywhere you look, and we are all blessed. Love you all!

Things are shaping up :)

Hellooooo readers of my blog!! I've had a lot on my mind lately so I'm sorry its taken me this long to write. Things are starting to fall into place and its been very nice even with all the stuff I have going on and have been worrying about I have been able to find peace. Its only Wednesday and this week has been awesome so far.

Sunday I  had a family party for birthdays and such and my cousins and I played Nertz. If you have never heard of this game or never played it then you are missing out sooooo much. Its such a fun game

Yesterday I hung out with Katie! We ate pie and other various sugary things and found funny quotes on the internet. I love that girl. While I was doing homework yesterday I got a call from a company called Doterra. I sent them my resume forever ago cause they are looking for a receptionist and they called me! I have an interview with them tomorrow! Wish me luck!

Today I found out that next Monday is my last day in my English class! I'm kind of sad about this! I actually enjoy that class. The people are so fun and the teacher eventhough she is crazy and scary is fun to listen too. Tonight I saw someone I havent seen in awhile after some stuff happened with them and it was super nice to see them. I never realized how much I care about this person. Everything with this person feels so right like we were put on this earth to find each other. To the person I am talking about: thank you so much for your friendship and helping me through so much in my life. I am always here for you and I know that you are here for me. I am so grateful to know you :) I'm not naming this persons name mainly because I know that if I do a lot of you will probably find me, slap me in the face and tell me that I'm being stupid.  Oh and contrary to what this sounds like, this person and I are not dating haha just thought I would clear that up.

Friday I'm hopefully going to see the Temple Square lights with Katie but I'm not positive. I hope it happens though! Things are finally looking better and I am so thankful for Heavenly Father answering prayers. To any of you who are reading this and going through a hard time, endure the storm you are in and find something you can learn. The sunshine at the end is so wondeful. Dont give up now :)
Love you guys!
