Why I Hate the Gym

No, i do not hate the gym for the normal reason people do. I actually enjoy going to the gym, shocker i know. I just hate going by myself....but the real reason i hate the gym....is because they don't adjust low enough so my legs reach anything. Ha ha ha i know, it's really funny. not. But i ran on the tredmill for like twenty minutes, which was great because there is no adjusting on the tredmill. Then i decided to migrate to the bike. Now try to imagine this if you can: me, trying to do the bike with the seat to high. Now don't get me wrong, i did try to adjust the seat lower. Nope, it didn't go any lower, thanks for asking. So here i am riding the bike and my knees keep popping all crazy like i have a twitch because my feet fall off the pedals when they reach the very bottom. I don't know what was worse, the fact that i looked like an idiot, or the fact that i just kept trying for ten minutes. I am just eternally grateful that i had my earphones in and Skillet blasting or else i'm sure i would die of shame from hearing everyone else scoff. Ug. the life of the almost legal midget.

I'm now officially addicted to pandora.com. I've tried it before, but never really got into the groove, but lately, i definately love it. In fact hold on one second while i call my dad to see if he's heard of it....nevermind he's not home. But there are a couple artists that i found on there that i L-O-V-E, namely:

-Missy Higgins: Where I Stood
-Courtney Jaye: Somersault
-Brooke Fraser: Arithmitic
-Holly Brook: Heavy
-Marie Digby: Miss Invisible
-Brie Larsen: Hope Has Wings
-Julie Moffitt: Try

CHECK THEM OUT!! Seriously lyns...cause i know your probably the only one that will...they are seriously awesome. But pandora, seriously great place. It's like you type in an artist or song and they will play all these songs that are the same genre and style and vocal style as that artist. So So good.

So here's another thing i hate. Blow Drying you hair when you don't have to. Doesn't it seem like it takes SOOOOO much longer when you don't have to be somewhere. I just got in the shower because i just got out of the gym, but now i don't want to blow dry my hair because i don't have to go anywhere but bed. But i know that if i don't blowdry it now, tomorrow it will look like i put my finger in an outlet, so i will regret it. But i don't enjoy it. So hold on a sec while i do what i don't want to do....

Alright, i'm all dry and whatever now. So here's my vent about laundry at college. It sucks. I hate having to PAY $1.75 to wash one load of laundy. What a ridiculous thing. ha ha i'm kinda annoying today. All i've been doing is complaining. So onto a happy subject.

I'm going home this weekend!!! I don't know about anyone else, but i'm super stoked for general conference. Especially because it's so much fun at my house. We buy a butt-load of junk food and just veg in our pj's for two whole days. Pure bliss. Plus, general conference is when my dad gets a little....crazy i guess. He plays dinosaurs with his fingers and junks like that. Let me tell you, purely entertaining. Plus, its general conference. Whats not to love?

Alrighty then, bye for now.

Halloween Costumes

So i've been trying to think of what i want to be for halloween...without much success. Truthfully i really don't want to dress up. I haven't had a costume on Halloween since i was like 12, but this year, if i decide to stay in Cedar, i will have to have a costume so i can go can or treating with the pa's. Most likely i will jsut go home because the highlight of my halloween every year is my grandma's fabulous home-made chili and breadsticks, and i don't think that i am able to give all the homemade goodness up just yet. ANNYWAYS back to my point, i was trying to think of all the costumes i could have and decided to recieve inspiration from my family and their old costume ideas...so here is the schmorgasboard of my families old costumes...and by the way, the man posing with erin in the one pic is actually my mom...creepy huh?

Smash Mouth Concert



















SO i've been sucking on the whole blogging thing. But I do have a good excuse...my computational device had a virus. Ug. Talk about a mood damper. But all is well now, so cease your unnessicary worrying.



Back to the point of this blog. Last weekend I was privledged to usher for the Smashmouth concert, which is a big deal if your me because the last concert I went to was Garth Brooks when I was eight. So you might laugh because it's smashmouth, but i laugh because i was there for free and you weren't there at all. It was seriously a blast, truthfully. I was on the floor the whole night making sure no one tried to sneak down close to the stage, cause you know those 10 year old girls can be vicious. It was just fun because I was backstage pretty much and was really close to all the sound equipment, and also to the security, which you will see in the pictures.



The best part about tonight was that I wasn't "legally" supposed to be taking pictures of the band while they were on stage, but i still did...apparetly. And you will see that i was dangerously close to security....good thing i'm freaking sneaky and didn't get caught. Breakin the law, breakin the law.

ALPHA PHI ROCKS THE CASH BAH

Woot woot woot woot!!! This deserves four woots, not just two. Because i made it into Alpha Phi!!! Yippie. So if you couldn't tell i'm pretty stoked. Super duper stoked. Tonight is the bid dinner when i officially become a sister. he he he i officially can't stop smiling. PLUS i passed my tour certification for Presidential Ambassadors, which means i can officially give tours. That was super stressful and i'm so glad it's over with! Nicole, the admissions counselor i did my tour with, was super nice and she made it so easy just to talk and make conversation and be myself...and she said i smell good...which is good becuase i don't want to smell bad....ANYWAYS thats all have to say on the subject of my super awesome totally radical life at the present moment. OH except for i have a math test today that i'm super worried about...so i'm gonna go study! LOVE MY LIFE!!! for real.

Missing My Ward

All right so this is my old primary class. The CTR 5 year old class. Aren't they just adorable!! Names in order starting on the left <-- Olivia, Coleman, Reece, Colby, Jacob, Thomas, Emma, and October. They were so much fun to teach and I seriously miss them all the time. Two of them are brothers and they both have like seriously severe ADHD....go ahead and try to guess what ones they are.... But i think that that is the reason i'm not such a big fan of the singles ward...because they don't have a primary and that's what I love to do is be with kids. I'm still hoping that they don't give me a huge calling...i don't think they are because i haven't heard anything yet and you would think that i would've heard something by now...ya know? I don't know maybe i'm just deluding myself into believing that ha ha. So tomorrow i find out if i get invited to the almost final diner of Alpha Phi, which is the sorority i'm rushing for this week. At the beginning i didn't think i would be too sad if i didn't make it, but seriously, i think i would be pretty crushed if i didn't make it! Anyway...that's pretty much all i have to say now. this is seriously like the fourth blog i've done today! But the first three don't really count....:D








Yup Yup

I like this one :D
