Whew!

I have spent all day yesterday and ALL day today trying to download the software i need for my summer online class. I mean really...is it worth it?! Eff. Ok Ok..it IS worth it. I dont wanna be a freshman again in Fall. I wish this class would have fit somewhere in my schedule last year, but it just didnt...so I got stuck taking it in summer. Man it's a good thing I have good ol' Frank to listen to on my record player. Seriously. (fyi, his record-That Old Feeling..is definitely my current favorite)
Anyways, besides being frustrated with school and the fact that I haven't even started my assignments cuz im not done DOWNLOADING stuff.....I've been good. =] I think I may have taken more than the necessary (if there even IS a necessary) amount of quizzes on facebook though. Sort of a problem. But hey, im learning more about myself right? Like if someone played me in a movie of my life...it would be Rachel McAdams hands down. So true. Really, who wouldnt be jumping up and down to play me?! Rachel would be begging.
Hahaha.
I've also been trying to teach myself the guitar! Not really notes, just songs. Im doing pretty good! But i think im gonna take lessons when I get back to Cedar in August. Heidi is taking them and they are cheap! So hey, why not? I'll keep trying to learn on my own, so when I do take the lessons I'll have an idea already.
I found out my friend from North Carolina is engaged! So crazy! Her birthday is 2 days after mine! I havent seen her in forever but she seems AMAZINGLY happy! Im excited for her! Its weird to get older...all my friends are getting married. Hahaha. That's what happens right?!
This weekend, Im going to Cedar with Taylor and her family for their family reunion! It should be fun! I'll be sure to update!

Fishlake Utah!

I got to go to Fishlake, Utah with my Mom, Dad, brother Keaton, cousin Anthony and his girlfriend RJ. It was pretty different. Hahah... the entire time we were rained and hailed on. Really.. it was semi-ridiculous. We were in a tent and that was crazy! That first night, I tried to sleep in there but the tent wouldnt fit all the air mattresses, so I got stuck sharing with my mom...and that resulted in me falling in between mattresses and getting soaked cuz the ground was wet! Haha. I tried to force my eyes shut, and that clearly wasnt working for me. Luckily, my dad woke up and was way upset cuz he was freezing. So him and I slept in the car. I didnt get much sleep out there either, cuz my dad had to pee every hour. Hahaha.
The next day was the same deal.. it started out nice, and while my family fished I decided I'd stay with the dog Tyson and we went for a drive. It was way fun! I took pictures of the drive and the scenery..um and myself...on my cell phone =] Tyson fell asleep...apparently I bore him. Later that day, it rained and hailed all over again. It was cold. Oh and to top things off, Im an idiot and only packed SUMMER clothes...with the exception of two hoodies. So all my clothes got drenched. I was frozen. Fantastic! But we all took benadryl that night (im not sure if thats a good thing to say on here...we drugged ourselves?? mmm..) and I crashed in the back seat of the car again. We woke up around 9 and we packed up and drove home!
Whew!!!! The weather sucked, but I love being around my family...so that made my weekend great =]

I can do better than every 4 months or so right?

So, in that last blog I was gunna put up some of the pictures from Spring Break and Heidis Birthday. But I failed. hahah.
Dang, there is SO much I havent talked about. I moved back to Vegas for the summer! Yup, that means I've completed an ENTIRE YEAR of college! Woah huh!? I'm proud =] Anyhow, a week after I got home for the summer, i drove back up to St. George for my friend Amy's birthday! It was a surprise! I met her, Mark, and Heidi at Olive Garden there. And Taylor drove with me! We had a blast! Then Taylor, Heidi and I ended up driving to Cedar so that Heidi could get her stuff and come to Vegas for the weekend with us!
The weekend was fun! We got to go see The Beatles Love on the strip! It was spectacular! Heidi left Sunday morning =[
Now, I've just been hangin with Taylor, avoiding getting a job =], trying to stay healthy, watching a lot of movies...and yeah! I will say its HOT in Vegas. Everytime I say that though, someone says that its not..or that it will be hotter soon. hahah...I guess im just used to Utah already.
Im taking the computer gen.ed. class over summer and its an online course! It starts on May 26th. Lucky me. It should be ridiculously easy though, so thats good.
This weekend, for memorial day weekend, im going to camp in Fishlake, UT. with mom, dad, keaton, my cousin anthony and his girlfriend Rj! It will be fun, even though we are gunna be in a tent...which im not too fond of. We are also bringing our dogs...which means the trip up & back in the car is gunna be sooooo great! =/ can u say "I call SHOTGUN?!" hahah.. seriously.
What else?! Oh, im tremendously paranoid about the Swine Flu..its bad.
Mmmm..OH! hopefully i'll be getting a beach cruiser bike for my birthday in june! im way excited about that! My house i'll be living in next semester is SUPER close to campus, so im gunna be biking! I'll still have my car..but yeah..biking seems more fun =]
Also, on my birthday im hoping to go to disneyland because of that whole free day pass on your birthday deal! YES!
And a beach stop would be nice! just sayin...
On the 12th of June Im traveling to Draper, ut. with my mom for my friend Sam's wedding! I cant wait to see him! And that same day, we are gunna travel back down to Cedar and stay with Heidi in our house =] and then leave in the morning so I can go straight over to Ashley Funks and help with HER wedding! Im a bridesmaid for it! June 13th! I cant wait!
My friend Derek leaves for the MTC on my Birthday! june 17th. Im so excited for him! His mission call is in Oklahoma City.
Yeah, this is pretty much all that i've missed =]
