Walmart

Ok so i've never been a Walmart fan... EVER!!! But maybe that is because the Walmart down in Orem is just nasty. So lately I've been going to Walmart more for various things. I still don't like it very much but it is growing on me a little. Like a couple weeks ago I went to Walmart almost everyday... sick. Well so on Sunday night I slept at Danielle's cause her family went out of town and she didn't want to be alone. So it is like 2:30 on Monday morning and I was hungry! So me and Danielle went down to Smith's to get some food. We stupid Smith's has new hours. They are no longer open 24/7. Dumbos... anyways then we fiigured Walmart is open 24/7 so we headed on over there. Now Danielle was not hungry when we left the house but she was by the time we got to Walmart. So we bought a pizza, some garlic bread, and then ran to Walkers and got some sodas. Interesting... plus we are in our pjs... ok well i was... hahaha
So we get back to Danielle's house and we are eating pizza at freakin 3:30 am!!! It was crazy but fun! I love doing spontaneous stuff like that!! Spontanuity is fun... especially when you have money!!! That was our random night... besides the fact that Ryan was over earlier and we were watching Dog the Bounty Hunter and wrestling during commercial breaks. I got my butt kicked!!! Oh well... it was still fun even though now I look like a heroine addict!! hahahaha I think that is it for now... Oh but I think ive decided I want to go donate blood. I am deathly terrified of needles but I think it would be a cool thing to go do... and I am running the 5k at the 4th of July parade!! I am excited!! OOOH and I am SO STINKIN EXCITED for football season!! Saw The Longest Yard yesterday!! Good movie!! Got me all psyched up for football!! oh my gosh i loved that movie! I have never gotten so excited at a movie before (besides Remember the Titans)

Get Your Freak On

So last night was the much anticipated dance at UVSC. It was not exacly how I pictured it would be... not only because of the drama that wasa happening but all the other stuff as well. Two super hot guys ran into me though and stopped at chatted with me!! That was suprising. One of them kinda rubbed my back too, nice! But they kept moving along, I guess it wasn't dark enough... hahaha...
I slept at Danielle's last night (nothing really new there). We were in her bed watching Sweet Home Alabama and we fell asleep. I have to say that I never knew Danielle moved around in her sleep SO FREAKIN MUCH!!!! I felt like I was on a water bed and it was constantly moving. I was about to move onto the floor!! However she did settle down eventually and so it was all good. Alexa made orange rolls for breakfast. They were dang good! I think I will hire her someday to be my cook. If I ever make enough money. Graduating mmoney has started rolling in!! Thank goodness for that! I kinda got a random 5 bucks from this couple in my ward. I think it was bribe money. I kinda don't like the guy cause he is a sexist old man. He plans all these trips for the "ward" to go on, however they are not really ward trips. That is just a cover so they can use ward money. It is actually trips for the boys. Why don't they just say that? Cause the trips are to places like Mexico and islands on Cali so they wouldn't be allowed by the church. Aaggh it bugs me bad!!! Yet another reason I think boys are stupid!! hahaha ok well that is it for today I guess. I am going to eat my Olive Garden leftovers now...

So I graduated today!! Thank goodness! Thanks to everyone who came that could!! I missed those of you who couldn't come! So I have decided after today that I am definitely curling my hair more. Like I have tried curling it in the past and it looked like butt. But I figured out that it is cause my curling iron was/is stupid. So I am going to get a new one. I am sure you all really care about that. Let's see I am so stinkin bored!! What a lame way to spend graduation night... at home, by myself. Everyone else is working. It always ends up like this!! The nights that I can actually be out all night (literally) and that I look pretty hot (at least I think I do), I end up at home. Ugh!
Oh so here is my random occurance for the day! I checked my email and it said that I had a new message on myspace (I don't go on there anymore unless I have an alert that says somthing is going on. and those are few and far between). So anyways I go to my account and I have an email from Mitch. Yes Mitch the B**** who ditched me during Wizard and then totally ignored me. He said, and I quote, " Hey stranger whats up?" Ok what the crap? Like I texted him after he totally stood me up and I got nothing back. and now all of a sudden he is talking like I haven't tried to talk to him or something! AAAGGGHHH why are boys stupid?! Anyways that was my random.
Oh and something else kinda wierd happened. Like I was thinking about getting my Seventeen Magazine and it came today in the mail... wierd... maybe just to me...
Ok well I guess that is all for now. Oh the tickets came in the mail today! So Kelly Clarkson is official!!

We had Susie, who was giggling so much I was sure she was drunk, we had Chris Money, who was drunk, we had ryan, who was licking everyone, and Danielle who was loving herself in the corner!! hahaha and then there was me... apparently I cuddled with Chris Money. Ok so maybe I should back it up... we were in the canyon at vivian (?) park. We were all laying out on blankets talking and having fun. I fell asleep and when I woke up I found out that I was cuddling with Chris... hmm a little, ok a LOT awkward!! hahah that is why I was so warm and comfortable. Not ever gonna happen again. although I didn't mind the fact that I was cuddling. maybe it was just cause it was chris money. oh well... so it was fun!!! Plus we ended up talking to a really cute guy. It is too bad ryan and chris were there. he sounded a little disappointed too!!! That was really it for the night. Why I am blogging this I don't know cause the only people that read this were there... hmmm... seminary graduation is today... hahahaha oh well... I GRDUATE IN LIKE 4 DAYS!!!!! hallelujah!!!

Turn it up a gnats a** would ya?- AJita

Ok this blog is going to be short and sweet cause I need to update but I am very tired as well.
Today me, aj, ryan, and danielle drove up to colorado do trade cars for danielles dad. it was very fun (i mean boring susie!) It was long but very interesting and a good bonding experience! after we got back aj, susie, ryan, and i went up to the resivoir in spanish fork. it was so pretty! we are def going back. me, aj, and ryan hiked up to the cross at the top of the mountain. susie would not (lack of appropriate shoes) it was so gorgeous... and so added to my list! hahaha anyways after we were done there we went home. a good day!! i am super tired... and because i am a senior and a slacker i put off my senior speech until tonight (it is due my first class tommorow) so i have been up doing that... i am going to be muy tired tommorow... and probably semi ornery. But it is ok cause tomorrow i think i will end up home most of the time!! and even if i am not i know i will be home at night and that is when the meaness comes out!! so good news, tomorrow afternoon i will proabably be in my tired, but hyper and pretty wierd but spontaneous phase. Those are good times... except when my spontaneousness gets me in trouble... like with certain purchases or with the shedding of clothes by lakes, etc
hahaha ok i need to go to bed!!! I promise this summer i will definitely update more Susie!!!

Super Long Blog of the YEAR!!!

Ok so here is my runthrough of the weekend... ok here we go!!
So on Saturday I went to prom!! I was super excited cause i'd never been asked to a dance before and I really wanted to go to at least one prom... like I guess if I didn't go it woulda been ok since it was my bday as well (I am SO legal now!! haha) anyways so we went on a picture scavenger hunt for our day date. My team totally kicked trash!! I have discovered that even though I am going blind, I have eyes like a hawk when it comes to finding good pictures! After the scavenger hunt we went to Coldstone, yummy!!!! So then my date dropped me off and I headed to my hair/makeup appt. Sheila did such an awesome job and I totally loved my hair (it looked hot!!!) and my makeup was fabulous! A little wierd cause I don't normally wear eye stuff and she put SO much on, but I think I looked pretty dang good none the less!! Ryan and Susie showed up at the end of my appt (thanks for the help with the mascera Susie!!oh and the bag too!) and so that was fun! Then I headed home to put on my dress and wait for my date.
Danielle showed up and watched me run around in my underwear (i know i need to go tanning, thanks for stressing that!!) and helped me tie my dress all nice. So then my date came and my mom had to pin on his boutinere cause I had no clue at all what was going on!!! And then we headed out.
We went to Tucano's for dinner (yummy!!!) I ate more then everyone in my group, sad but typical. I could of actually eaten more but that dang dress was too tight! At least it was all you can eat so my poor date didn't have to pay for all that! Hahah anyways... the waiters sung to me and that was the first time i've ever been sung at in a resturaunt. That was cool, plus i got free desert!! And get this, they come out with our drinks and they give you a little glass (that totally looks like a shot glass with a stem, I totally thought alcoholic drinks when I saw that and then I thought of you Susie). And then also bring you a mini craff. I almost choked on my food when I saw those cute little things come out. And of course I had no one to share the moment with (so you guys we will have to eat there sometime). But it was awesome and I will remember that forever!
Then we headed over to the dance. That was a blast! However I felt a little sad that Danielle was not there to share in my retarded dancing moments!!! But oh well there is always some institute dance or something! haha So then we left the dance and came home (i even made it home by curfew, that is sad for prom night but I guess it was good in a wierd parental sorta way). So that was my fabulous prom night! I didn't fall over once in my heels (Danielle) and I didn't spill anything on my dress or make a complete idiot of myself. Unless you count eating more then everyone making an idiot of yourself! haha
Ok and then there was Sunday... we will not discuss Sunday. It was boring and bad. That is all that needs to be said!
And then there was Monday, today. So it was typical until tonight. I came home early cause I was supposed to have my family bday party. So I come walking in and my family was all amazed that I got home early and I said "well i've gotta be here for my bday party" and then I hear my mom in the other room "oh shoot i totally forgot." So there was no bday party. Nice... oh well I wasn't too sad. So I went to Walmart (I know what is becoming of me? haha). So I bought some new underwear and I go up to the checkout line. The lady there was an interesting older woman. So she is ringing me up and then holds up a pair of underwear that I am buying and asks if it is comfortable (now this is where I explain that this underwear is not like the cotton stuff you buy in a pack of 10 for 5 bucks but it was also not a thong or anything. It was a different cut and a little Victoria's Secret, hence the question if it is comfortable). So I said that it really was and it took a little getting used to at first, but now they are great. So then she starts talking about g-strings and how she doesn't understand how people can wear those and that she, being a woman of her age, would never wear one. Ugh that was something I didn't need to know and picture. yuck!! So then she goes on to explain how it isn't healthy and that thongs cause colon cancer, hmmm that is new info. She is still talking to me while ringing up the next person's purchase and I am starting to feel super uncomfortable and I am trying to say like "wow thanks" and walk away. However this was not happening!! Finally I got away... It totally reminded me of when I worked at Kohls. I was cleaning up in the lingere department this older woman came up to me and started asking me about whose body suits that suck in your fat. Then she goes into her life story of losing tons of weight and having like 10 kids and how she wants to look sexy and have support. Now I am standing there and I don't know anything about anything. I was just there cleaning up the dressing rooms. I didn't even know about half the stuff she was pulling out and showing me. I was seriously trying to help this woman for like and hour. She gave me WAY too much information in this time period. It was very uncomfortable and interesting. And then I think about the people who work at Vickie's. That is all they sell!! Wow, but I think I would be able to handle it there because of the stuff they sell. They do not get into the body suits that hide all fat, wrinkles, and celulite. I must say that being a sales person is an interesting job!! Susie good luck with that at Kirklands! At least your not selling underwear (CONGRATULATIONS on that by the way!! we need to celebrate!!!). Ok so that was an extremely long, and hopefully entertaining blog!!
So the moral of tonight, don't go to Tuscano's on a date unless you are ok about eating more then him, don't wear a thong or you will die of colon cancer, and don't ever work at Kohls, or you may end up helping old ladies try on fat suckers!!!

Skinny Dipping Season has arrived!!

Ok well so last night I officially started the skinny dipping season...
Me, AJ, and Ryan were hanging out trying to decide what to do. Skinny dipping came up as kind of a joke. Then me and AJ decided we would really like too. So the three of us drove up to Deer Creek and Ryan (who did bring a towel for himself, but did not end up using it). We found a boat ramp and my and AJ stripped down under our blankets, counted to 3, and booked it for the lake!! It was so much fun! We both made it up to our necks and then ran out very quickly!! Ryan is observing this thing, and now he tells us that the image of our white butts running for the water is burned into his mind forever! hahah Sorry about that Ryan!

So another story, this one remarkably wierd.

So I am in church, listening to the fabulous testimonies, and I look over to the pew on my left. I see this GROWN, ADULT, MARRIED man, curled up on the pew like a little boy. His head was on his wife's lap and his feet were up on the pew. I was AMAZED!!! I wanted to throw something at him and say, "Sit up you are not 5, you wierdo!" Who just does that in church? I mean even if he was sick or tired or something he shoulda gone home and gotten into bed! I mean if you are so tired that you can't inconspicuously fall asleep in church, you have to actually lay down, then you shouldn't be in church!!! Seriously!! I was SO annoyed!! So that is my interesting Sunday story! When I got up to bear my testimony I shoulda called him out! He woulda never done that again!

So the moral of tonight, don't sleep on the pews in church or I will call you out, and skinny dip as often as possible... even if it is semi-illegal and someone is watching!
