She is the bestest mostest greatest...

Mum in the entire world. Yup it's true! If I counted the things she did for others in a day my list would wrap around the world. I kid you not. So here's to a wonderful women I like to call Mom/mum/mumsie. Happy Birthday and please RELAX! Enjoy life today, because it's beautiful! I love you Mom.

Dun dun dunnnnn

Its that time of the year again-yes-school-yes. So I have changed my major to special education but PLEASE don't hold me to it. I'm throwing around the idea of elementary ed as well. It's hard figuring your life out. Good thing for prayer and guidance from my Father in Heaven. I am back at school and they have been doing a ton of construction and our old MC building is practically unrecognizable! It is huge and clean and lovely. I haven't started school yet, but tomorrow is the BIG day. I'm trying to write out a schedule to keep myself sane and healthy this semester. This is something I'm usually not good at doing, but I will conquer it...I'm sure of it.

What I've been up to lately...

Well time seems to be flying by at WARP speed! It feels like I just got here. I've been having tons of fun, I absolutely love my roomates and new friends. It's not all fun and games though, no sir it is not! School is so so so busy. I'm not even taking as many credits as I should be and I'm still drowning in constant homework! There are some weeks (usually most) where I'll get about a total of 4 hours of sleep in two days, and no people I don't have a newborn...it's called I'll do homework later so I can play. OR it's called my teacher's are crazy and give me wayy to much to do. Hello don't they know I'm busy? Next week I'm headed to Utah to spend the 4th with family, and I'm very excited. Also a little disclaimer a boy from my ward drowned in the Snake River Tuesday, because the river is flooded. A little caution to all PLEASE be careful when your swimming in rivers especially now with the water coming in from the melted snow in the mountains, check the conditions and wear life jackets! On a lighter note here's what I've been up to.

Getting Outta hurrr

Well its that time of the week again...THE WEEKEND. I live for them. This weekend I'm preparing to do something a little different. School has graciously given us off monday for memorial day, AND tuesday for "examination day"/ya right what teacher would give an examination out after memorial day when we have no school. So the roomies put their heads together and we came up with a little something.

I'm starting this right now

and I'm doing a lot of this tonight

So I can leave for this on friday and go to it on saturday! I'm SOOOO excited!!

and do a little of this as well...

Don't be jealous..because when I get home I'll be living at the library. I don't even want to think about it! So I wont.

MUM-HAPPY DAY TO YOU!

I love you Mom soooooooooooooooo much! You are the greatest inspirtation too me. Along side Dad you are the most caring, conciderate person I know. You hardly think of yourself and you are CONSTANTLY giving. You are creative, and witty, and Mama I love you to peices!!!

My New Place

Well I am back at school, and am in a new place this time. I love it! I get my own room, and it is a million times nicer than my last apartment. School is insane, but I'm trying not to get overwhelmed. It's good though, I love my roomates they are so fun! I seem to have a great ward, and I hear summer semester is THE BOMB. My roomate plays guitar and she is teaching me. It's awesome! Here are some (crappy) pictures, and some videos. I felt really dumb taking the video of myself, whispering in my room all alone....Our neighbors are pretty loud, somehow they loaded a humungo tv into their apartment, but luckily I don't hear it because I'm on the other side of the apartment. We have roomate dinner every Sunday, which is new for me but so fun! I can see the Rexburg Temple from my bedroom window which is awesome because at night it literally looks like Heaven. I'm grateful and excited to be back at school gettin my education onnnnnn.

Jumping out of planes, and all sorts of fun

So saturday was THE day I got to jump out of a plane with my cousin Chelsea and about 9 other tandem jumpers/single jumpers/camera people. We got to the skydiving place around 1 and found out it was a 4 hour wait. My family had driven us, but they couldn't wait that long, and there was NO way Chelsea and me could deny this opportunity especially after we got there and saw the skilled filled with people gracefully floating in the sky. We HAD HAD HAD to do it! So after waiting four hours seeing everyone's numbers being called but ours it was OUR turn! We both went into the back room and got suited up, this is where my nerves set in. I wasn't exactly nervous but more anxious. My instructor kept reminding me and reminding me to just relax. He was very good at keeping my calm, not that I was freaking out but just needed a little reassurance.





The plane soon came in and before I knew it I was sitting on the plane. I felt like we were preparing for war or something, everyone was buckling up, snapping things here and there, at one point my instructor told me sit on his lap to to buckle us up. AH IM NOT READY. Well that's what I was saying in my head atleast. Since my instructor and I were the first in we were the last out. It went so quick though I was glad. We waddled to the door and out we went! Once I jumped out every worry disappeared and it was so awesome!




I'm counting down the days until I get to do it again. My video will be coming soon, but it needs just a little tweaking. The feeling of free falling was so beyong what I can even describe. It was a very free feeling. I loved it. Every second of it I loved! We had 60 seconds of free fall, and a 5 minute descent. Who wants to go???!!!

I AM IN LOVE!

With Netflix that is....

We have recently ditched satellite and have switched over to local tv with tivo. I joined Netflix a few months ago after my awesome FREE two week trial. Through the tivo I'm able to use the Netflix. Today I watched Singin' In The Rain!

Oh how I loveth this movie. As Cassie and I watched it, we wondered why men don't dress in full blown suits and hats. Why don't guys walk girls to the door anymore..why don't guys use manners anymore...why don't guys be respectful anymore!! Ok ok I'm sorry. I'm done. I just really love old movies because they aren't filled with all the JUNK that today's movies are filled with. They are a great reminder of what a gentlemen is. I know some are out there, but they are far and few between.

"The road to knowledge begins with the turn of the page."

Since being out of school until April, I've decided to catch up on my reading. I lovvvvvvve to read. My favorite thing to do is camp out at Barnes and Noble and drink diet coke and read. I love how reading allows you to live in a different world, and keeps your brain moving! I just started up Harry Potter again because I never finished! I know everyone is shocked! How could I stop? I ask myself that now that I've started again..(how do you even put it down?) So I'm on the 6th of that, and I'm also starting Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins . Heard it was awesome!...so go pick up a book and get reading!!.hurry up now...c'mon get going...your still reading this?...

Worrkkk it...

You know how you go through times in your life where your in awesome shape...and then you fall off the wagon for a bit. Well the start of the new year is that time to hop back on the wagon! I'm trying to get back into shape, and I've taken up running. It's an awesome way to burn off the workday stink, and get a great workout! So here's to healthier happier 2009. NOW GET MOVIN'.
