let's skip the charades.

I feel like I should write something here but I don't know what. It's been a pretty boring Sunday night and I am done with all my homework that I need to get done immediately so here I am. My iPhone has a broken lock button so I might have to get it replaced tomorrow so I've been backing up stuff and in my notes I have some blog ideas/writing that has popped into my head when I haven't been able to write it down. Here's one of those quotes:

I was never a girl that sat on the sidelines of love. I jumped right in, guns ablaze. I won't say it hasn't hurt me or broken my heart sometimes seemingly beyond repair but at least I know what love is. And that is; something worth fighting for.

I am not sure when I wrote that now. Within the past few months I guess but it's still completely true. And I hope that everyone who reads my blog knows that too. Love is always worth the pain you go through to get it. I have never regretted falling for anyone or the memories I have shared with them. So don't be afraid to make a fool of yourself. Tell someone how you feel. Make the first move. Do something. You never know if maybe they're hoping you will.

hi, i suck at blogging...

sorry.

Really though...I am sorry I haven't been updating this as regularly as you have all grown accustomed to. Although, that being said, I had 3 comments on my last entry because I wasn't updating as much so HA! I beat the system...or something...

Well let's do a quick life update from when we last spoke shall we? Okay here we go. Patrick came home from Greece! Yay! It was a joyous reunion. We spent a lot of time together and he gave me presents! But him being back was the best present of all. (end sappiness).

I also got a job! Finally! After a year of searching my lovely pal Rachel hooked me up with a receptionist job at a salon. She also works there too but sadly we won't ever work together because they only need one receptionist at a time. But it's all good! So most of my week was basically me training and trying to figure it all out. I sound like an idiot but it actually is kinda difficult at once and my anxiety kinda kicks in and I really don't wanna mess up anyone's schedules! But I'll get the hang of it I'm sure...

So that brings us to this weekend. I have been in sunny St George/Las Vegas since Thursday and it has been well...great and boring. Vegas was really fun because we got a lot of shopping done and ate delicious food and what not but St George has been super boring. I got some sun by the pool yesterday and I guess I missed a lot of spots with sunblock because I'm pretty burned. Seriously, it's embarrassing. Like my left foot is burned and a little patch before my hairline. I look like a fool. Umm...yeah other than that it's been super boring down here and I've just been missing my friends a lot. Especially because the last time I was in St George they were all with me and by comparison it has not been even close to the same!

Anyway, sorry this was kinda a boring life update blog. I'll try to be more artsy and thoughtful at some point but now is not the time. Love you all.

sometimes you just have to cut your losses.

It’s been almost a week since I’ve updated which actually is weird for me haha and to think I used to never use this thing. Well like I said in my last post a lot of things happened and I’ve noticed some changes in myself. Still don’t wanna discuss it here and probably never will. I’ve been struggling the past 6 months and letting things go and finally realizing I deserve better than the way I’ve been treated has been like a weight lifting off of me. I don’t know what the future holds for me with that person and truthfully we probably will never speak again, and if that’s what happens I think I can finally accept that. It doesn’t hurt anymore.

Anyway.

This past weekend was definitely a turning point for me though and I am so thankful and loving of those who I shared it with. It was one to remember ha.

And the quote of the week has been updated. I'm not sure if anyone has even noticed that yet but I update it every Monday :)

Hello my lovely readers!
It's been awhile, sorry. I had a fantastic amazing weekend! It's the first weekend in a looong time I've actually stayed in Logan. Like really, I can't remember the last time I did that. And surprisingly it was actually fun! Woohoo, alas. (I'm still majorly excited to move home though, don't worry)
On Friday, Utah State had this "end of year" bash type thing...even though we still have 3 weeks left of school but whatever! Basically it was like a huge carnival type thing so my roommate Jill and Keith and I went. I had cotton candy and it was freakin awesome. Then I met Jill's sister and we got some of the world famous Aggie ice cream. I can't count how many times I've eaten that this year. Pretty sure it is one of the major things Utah State has going for it. They give it away at every event. No joke. Anyway. After some Aggie ice cream (I can't wait til I'm not an Aggie so I can stop saying that ugly word) we parted ways with Jill's sister Jen and came back to our dorm.
We sat around then we met up with Jill's friend Alexis who organized this pie fight that was taking place on Saturday. So we were then hanging up fliers and writing on the sidewalk with sidewalk chalk advertising when this crazy old woman popped out of nowhere and started yelling at us asking if we "knew the chalking policy" needless to say, we knew of no such policy and were barked at to scrub it off the cement this instant. How dare we draw with chalk! After that we chatted with Keith's roommate Nathan and decided to take a nap before having dinner. After naptime Jill went a little crazy which was extremely entertaining for me. I think it was all the cotton candy and ice cream...but really it was funny. I am still giggling about it inside.
After dinner we went back to Keith's apartment and played some High School Musical sing-along game which was hilarious and played Band Hero. Then we had the brilliant idea of going to Angie's to "clean the sink" which is a very popular thing to do in Logan. Here are pictures of the event:

The group :)

After!

So we gathered a group of people together...there were 7 of us. Which actually made it super easy and we all only paid like $2 hahaha. It was pretty awesome. I'm definitely doing it again with my sister. We can devour that thing. After cleaning the sink and putting the lovely "I cleaned the sink at Angie's" sticker on my car we played more Band Hero. Woohoo!
After playing some Band Hero we started discussing urban legends and ghosts and Jill remembered there was one about the cemetery that we live right next to. Yeah, it's scary and makes me not want to walk outside at night...ha. But back to the story we looked it up online and apparently there is a grave that cries after midnight. Like you can physically feel the tears on the stone. So we decided to look for it. We walked to the cemetery and were walking around in it when we realized it would be a lot smarter to locate the grave during the day and then return at night. So that is the official plan, I'll update you when that happens.
-end of Friday-

Saturdayy I slept in...then Jill and Chelsea and I went on an adventure to McDonald's to get Happy Meals and How To Train Your Dragon toys. They are super awesome. Mine lights up. We were stoked. Then we went to Walmart to buy pie supplies for the pie fight. After that, I hung out with my neighbor Keith and watched some tv for awhile and ordered pizza and free cinnastix. They were delicious. Finally we had the pie fight! About 30 people-ish showed up all with different kinds of pies. Some of them were legit. Ours were whipped cream on paper plates. I don't know about you, but I'm not wasting precious pie. Anyway here's some pictures from that. It was a blast.

There's me, Keith, and Jill before.

Keith, me, and Jill after

Meeee

After showering the pie off Keith, Jill, and I watched the movie The Greatest, which was excellent by the way. I recommend it. And then we pretty much just hung out.
All in all it was an awesome weekend. It was extremely epic and I'm tired after reliving it again ha. So hopefully I update soon.

[thanks Jill for some of the pictures]
