Girls Camp

In my Spanish class this year, instead of learning spanish we actually just learned about Mr. Burtenshaws (Spanish teacher's) life. He had a pretty interesting life and he told the stories really well, so I honestly didn't mind at all. One day he told a story about his towns girls camp. He started by explaining how small his town was. How everybody knew everybody. For two whole weeks all of the girls in the town would go to girls camp. He said it was on a property far up a road and in the woods in some cabins. During those two weeks all of the boys in the town would try to sneak in. Brilliant idea. Because of this, all of the dads in the town would take shifts guarding the camp. He said it turned out to be more of a game between the boys and the dads then anything. If the boys were caught, they had to do community service. He said it was pretty intense and they had quite a few years to try to get in. He told us all of the ways they tried and all of the plans they had. Apparently only a few boys got into the camp every year. He sadly wasn't one of them. But anyways, what I'm getting at is tomorrow I and about a bazillion other girls are headed off to stake girls camp. Boys, It's in Heber, not too far away. If you're up for a challenge, try sneaking in. Then, you should come and find me. Cause hey. It's girls camp baby.

Thought Of You

In my spare time, or time that I honestly don't have but just waste, I like to stumble. Nope, this is not tripping or falling. Stumbling is, well it's a website that takes you to other random websites. If that makes any sense at all. It's really awesome. It's an awesome waste of time, but it's still awesome nonetheless. Stumbling is also very fun to do with someone else. So, we can do it sometime. Ok?

So, Eliza was stumbling. Just with herself, and she came across something so completely amazing, it made me cry. She posted it on my Facebook wall, and now I watch it probably 4 times a day. So, here is the thing. I would really like to do this with someone. So if you are watching this and you think you could possibly do this with me, or maybe know someone... come running to my house. Because I will fall in love with you. I mean, I'm still working on the growing wings on the spot thing, but I think we can maybe pull it off.

I found it on youtube. Because it's easier to watch that way.

This is breathtaking. Watch it.

You should probably just laugh

If you asked me what my normal day consisted of, I honestly couldn't give you a very good answer, because my days are all over the board. Take today for example. Just for example.

I woke up and had the biggest glass of milk possible. Drove to school while singing Norah Jones. Read about 4 chapters of my English book before class started so I could actually know a little bit for the test and practically fell asleep in Spanish. During 3rd period we took the math CRT, which I finished in about 50 minutes excluding question 69 which for some reason I could not do for the life of me. I spent the rest of the period on that one problem and got nowhere with it. Failure. I came home and was freezing so I put on sweats over my pants and long blue socks which I wore diligently throughout the rest of the day. I watched Modern family which makes me laugh literally out loud even though I'm by myself. I ran into a wall and now have a goose egg on the side of my head. Went to a baseball game where I learned what a pickle was and attempted at going to mutual where I sat in the parking lot for about 7 minutes then went home. Then I took off my shoes and did cartwheels in my blue socks outside on a hill which is actually a very unusual task.

So, what I'm getting at, is... well, you should probably just laugh.

My Fatal Flaw

I have finally come to the conclusion of what my fatal flaw is. I decided just this week. I have had a really big week of dance, with Dance Company and BYU performances every night. In Dance Company I was in 13 of about 16 dances, which makes for some pretty fast changes. Likewise with BYU. Like 10 second changes backstage. And if I didn't have the help of some amazing girls who helped me all night, I probably would have keeled over and died. Because, you see, my fatal flaw is getting dressed.

Performances (so as not to get confused.)

Wednesday (Dance Co)

Thursday (Dance Co)

Friday Morning (BYU)

Friday (BYU)

Saturday (BYU)

On Wednesday night, there was not a costume that I put on right. I would be running really fast, go out, dance my heart out, just to come off and have someone tell me that my shirt was on either backwards, inside out, or stuck in my pants. In one of the dances I came off stage only to find that my pants were ALL three of those things. So yes, I had a nice little tag as a tail. It's a beautiful thing. But part of me kind of doesn't care that all my costumes were screwy. Because... well I don't really know why. Maybe I just hope that people will look at my lack of getting dressed correctly skills as charming and kind of funny. Who knows. Like I said before. It's just my fatal flaw.

A Couple Things

So I pretty much lost my last chance to become a real Queen. The big marriage happened. I watched it on t.v. It was happy. Dang it. But, I kinda have one more chance to become a Princess. Sort of. I mean Prince Harry is kinda old, and most likely has a girlfriend, and lives in London. But, other than that... yeah, most likely not going to happen. Thats ok, they aren't that cute anyways. Like whatever right??

Went to Prom. With Andrew Swenson. I loved it. I was reading my sisters blog, and well, she blogged about it. So, I thought I should too.

Prom: I was waiting around because once you get heels on, you can't exactly do much, when his parents and his sister come in the back door. We are 'old family friends' as my mom likes to call it. So, it was all super cool. Just about two minutes later he comes to the front door with TWO corsages. Two people. He said I got to choose. One was blue, and the other pink. I chose the pink one because it was smaller, but I loved them both. We took some model worthy photos, and were off. For dinner he took me to Gloria's. It was so happy. Amazing. I would go back in a heartbeat. I could have stayed there all day. Lets go? And then we danced. And danced and danced. We went to Jamba, and ended the night with Harry Potter 7. ahh. Andrew knows how to date me. It was a flurry of everything amazing. So, thank you Andrew, for the Prom night of my dreams. Which is just a little twisted. <3

Oh yeah, he wore baby blue.

And I wore an attractive minx.

It was happy.

Prom: 2011

Eliza is moving back. I am really excited. I need her. She is a listener. Its her hobby. I'm not. Thats why I need one. We are going to have the best summer ever.

I Lost My Earring People.

Hey. So I have a little problem and I think you might be able to help me. You see. I lost my favorite earring of all time. Like I will never have a more favoritest earring than this one. Here it is.

Yeah. So there it is. I drew that with my artistic skills. See, I have one of them because I frequently wear only one earring. Is that so weird? I honestly don't think so. So, I am only missing one. But, these earrings are not only thee most amazing most beautiful earrings in the world, but they are special because my best friend Eliza gave them to me. And I love them so so ever so much. I feel so awful. For a while I have actually been denying that I am missing one. But, it's time to face this problem. So, if you could look around, and you happen to spot this one earring? Could you return it to me? Because, I need them in my life. Oh yeah, and don't tell Eliza. I don't want her to know. I feel awful as is.

Thanks people. Call me. And lets get this earring back into our lives!
