over a year....my bad.

so remember how i started a blog....and then didn't post anything for year? well that was lame. but, i'm going to try to be better at this blogging thing (as well as journal writing- maybe they go hand-in-hand?) anyways, i mainly got the blog so i could keep tabs on the lives of others- family and a few friends. and then i was looking at blogs today and realized that i never do new posts. it makes me sad when there aren't new posts for me to read, so maybe i should start posting more. so yeah. here goes.
today was awesome. i went swimming with my friend calvin and we both got FRIED. seriously, my back and shoulders are so red. i only put sunscreen on my face and neck, because i wanted to get some color on the rest of me. i forgot that i have cursed connolly skin and got burnt like whoa. but hey. red is color right? guess i got what i wanted. doh! but yeah. made pancakes and ate them. yum. then later i watched the blackhawks game with my friend doman. love hockey. so great. but we lost in overtime. it's ok tho. we're 2-1 in the series. can't believe we made it to the stanley cup! LET'S GO HAWKS! then i went and played ultimate frisbee with my ward. i have never played ultimate and i can't remember the last time i threw a frisbee. it was interesting to say the least. it was a blast tho! i'm not very good, but maybe i will be if i got in shape. it was way fun. i'm glad there weren't too many super competitive people there and that it was just fun. sometimes i feel bad when i play with people that are crazy into it and get mad when they lose. it makes me feel bad because i'm not very good at most sports like that and i only like to play for fun. oh well. they can suck it up :). but yeah. then i came home and watched indiana jones and the last crusade and made scrambled eggs for me and my roommate. my scrambled eggs are pretty legit. i don't brag about much, but i make awesome eggs. it's probably from all those years of 2-a-days where all 4 of us kids would come home from practice and be completely famished, and chris and i would make eggs, becky would make toast, and jenny would make chocolate milk. if we were lucky, mom would have pancakes waiting for us. i love breakfast food. it's the best. seriously.
anyways. efy is starting soon. i could not be more excited. i was reading through my journal from last summer (in hopes of getting tips or reminders from myself on what to do , or what not to do) and i just got really excited. i wrote a lot about the spirit and how great it felt to be there away from so much of the stuff that detracts us from what's really important. i could really use that right about now. so pumped. kinda nervous because i'm doing so many, and will have basically no sleep for 2 and a half months, but that's ok. i'm partially sad because i've started making friends in my ward and stuff, and now i have to leave them. but it's ok. maybe i'll make new friends at efy. and keep up old friendships. i should be better about that.
well, it's late, and this is blog overload for me. hopefully i will be back soon. adios.

so, sorry i'm not very good at this whole blogging thing. there seems to be no time between hanging out with friends and doing stuff and pretending to do homework. if it makes you feel better, i don't do the amount of school work i need to do either, so blogging is not the only thing i don't do much of =) don't tell mom. haha.

anyways. luau is 3 weeks away! that is so crazy. i'm so excited. luau has kind of been my saving grace for this crazy lifestyle of have (being frustrated with school, my future regarding school/working, and of course, stupid boys). it's so much fun and i love doing it. the costumes are going to look amazing. it's going to be one heck of a show, and i wish you guys could all come. i'm doing 4 dances total. 2 for Tonga (a girls dance that's really pretty and way fun, and the finale which is way fun!) and then 2 for tahiti (a slow, pretty all girls dance that is kinda scattered and i will be hard to find in it, and a fast, fun dance where i have to shake really fast and have a freestyle solo [dancing, not rap] and it's not really a solo because there are a handful of girls doing it at the same time as me, but we're all doing different things and really spread out. but it'll be cool!). i'm so excited for the show. we're actually doing 2 shows this year and it'll be in the wilk and not the marriot center, so there will be more audience interaction and everyone will be really close. i only have to wake up early on a saturday morning 2 more times! next saturday is the dress rehearsal and it's from 1-4, so i get to sleep in! huzzah. i really hope a lot of my friends come. it's really going to be a lot of fun, and it means a lot to me when people come to support me! anyways, good times to be had by all.

yesterday was one of the most beautiful days. i sat outside on a blanket and ate popcorn with friends for like 2 hours! it was awesome. we then watched the fireside and ate dinner. and then after ward prayer we watched aladdin. i have this friend named lionel. he is one of the nicest funniest people i know. anyways, he looks EXACTLY like aladdin. like he should work at disneyland as aladdin. so we told him and a couple friends that we were watching aladdin...and he showed up...DRESSED LIKE ALADDIN! red hat, purple vest, cream colored m.c. hammer pants, the whole 9 yards. it was the most amazing thing i've ever seen. sadly, i didn't get a picture with him. next time. but really, it made me ridiculously happy. it was hilarious. so funny.

anyways, this blog was brought to you because the power went out in the library and my teacher let us out of class 45 minutes early and i had nothing to do. so, thank you byu power, for going out so i could bring this blog to people. peace out.

i give.

so, i have decided to become....a BLOGGER...dun dun dun. anyways, i will be trying to figure all this out. how to jazz it up and all that. once i get everything set up, i'll write some more interesting stuff. Later.
