The week of finals....... O Hackin'
I finally finished my last week of school and I am about to dive into my finals week. Woot woot. I am so ready for this to be over. I only have three finals and they will hopefully be pretty easy. So ya my birthday was last thursday.... it was extremely uneventful. I went to class and then came home... thats it. wow. But I did get a few texts, phone calls, and a million posts on Facebook. What did we do before facebook? We were supposed to watch smallville, eat muddy buddies, and go to a comedy show on friday for my birthday. For some reason there was no signal from the CW so we didnt get to watch smallville, and Everyone forgot about muddy buddies, and the comedy show really wasnt that funny.... All in all. A little disappointing. I guess I shouldnt get my hopes up. haha! At least my room mates got a delicious ice cream cake for me. That was super awesome.
I was in my last institute class of the semester and the teacher was in the middle of a super serious lecture, and I look down at the inside cover of the hymn book on the desk. I just break out laughing, and everyone just gives me the "you are totally weird/no one sat by you for the entire semester for a reason" look. After "the look" the teacher kept on teaching. BUT! before you judge me of my weirdness like the rest of the class. I have to tell you what I saw... Okay it isnt that funny or clever when I tell you.... you just had to see it.
The institute had obviously had a thief problem, so they had put a sticker on the inside of every hymn book that read: "STOLEN FROM: Cedar City Institute Building" hahahah. Maybe it is the finals week jitters that has my sense of humor derailed, but at least all of my fake friends from church who sat by me pretended to think it was funny. Well good luck this week! I am off to a good start.

Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving!
I got to go home this weekend and hang with family and friends. It was hackin awesome. Although the Utah weather has robbed me of my thanksgiving break... I had to leave Saturday night instead of Sunday night because of a stupid snowstorm. (But I admit it was a good idea, It is 8 inches and still snowing right now) Supposedly, there are a ton of car accidents on I-15 right now too. Wow this is cheerful.
Anyways, It was good to see family and good to see Harry Potter. But there were a few parts where all I could think was "Whaaaaat?" ugh bleh (during the movie and being with family haha!). The next movie is gonna be so sweet though! I spent the entire drive to Cedar City yesterday discussing Harry Potter and Smallville with a friend... Now I ask you. where does that put me on the dork scale? The drive from Cedar City to Salt Lake is soooo boring. And I absolutely HATE driving through Utah Valley. That is the reason why I will never attend BYU or UVU. I dont hate the schools, I just hate the location. Sorry!
Speaking of BYU vs. Utah. Utah wins by one point because they block the kick? How often does that happen? That is the only football game I will watch. And Yes, I am a BYU fan... ish. That is pretty complicated eh? I will never want to attend BYU, yet I root for their football team. In fact, I really want to go to the U for graduate school. uh? My mom graduated from the Y and my dad graduated from the U. My life is so complex and split... Can I just say that part of the reason I like BYU is because blue is my favorite color... haha lame reason? (I dont care at all about football, but school colors... is an ENTIRELY different story) I guess I don't mind the color red either. hmmm... i guess I am questioning my BYU loyalty. LIFE CRISIS!

Self Defense
hey hey hey
I have had an interesting few weeks. Final projects and tests have taken over my life. But I guess that is part of the college experience.
The Relief Society activity was about self defense this last week. We had it because a girl in our ward got mugged in a parking lot. They had two cops come in and talk to us about staying safe. I think they just made us all ridiculously paranoid. They talked about spyware and like cameras in our apartments and men hiding underneath our cars. They talked a lot about peeping toms and crazy stalker boyfriends. Most of the girls were completely dazed by the end of the meeting. They gave us all rape whistles and I won some sweet hackin Lipstick PepperSpray. (WHAAAA!) totally cool. I can't wait until someone tries to attack me so I can spray them with my pepperspray disguised as a lipstick tube.... I dont even wear lipstick. muahahaha. Then I will kick them where it hurts (I may or may not be watching to many action movies lately)
Also they totally convinced me to get a concealed weapons permit when I turn 21. Watch out world, Janessa is goin to be packin heat. The cop talked about his grandma and how she always has a weapon on her person. I just cant wait til I am old and people think I am defenseless.... but I am absolutely going to blow their minds when I turn into Granny Dangerous with a gun. O ya... (I am definitely watching to many movies lately)

Pity Friends, Babies, Cigarettes, and Group Projects
Happy November everyone!
So I have a sad/pathetic story. Do not think less of me because of it. It happened last week in church. I have been in salt lake and with family, so I hadn't been to this ward in a few weeks. I don't really know anyone there so I just went up to the front of the room and sat by myself. Big Mistake! Everything was fine until sunday school. (it was the fifth sunday, so we spent all three hours in the chapel) Anyways, the guy who was teaching sunday school was talking about being member missionaries and including everyone. He started to talk about how he sat by himself in his new ward, and that was when I knew I was in trouble. (i am still sitting alone in the front row) He says that everyone is sitting in groups, while I am shrinking in my seat just praying that he won't spot me. Of course he does see me and he says, "wait, everyone is sitting in a group except for you. what is your name?" The ENTIRE ward gives me the your a l0ser/i pity you look. I introduce myself and he asks, "is this your first week?" hahaha! nope, I have been here all semester. My reply results in about 5 seconds of awkward silence until the teacher just asks if he can sit by me next week..... o my hackin. you have got to be kidding me. I say yes, and by now I am bright red and the rest of the ward is just laughing at my loserness. So, of course, this week I had three people approach me and say hi and introduce themselves. The whole ward thinks I am loser with no friends. So now I have like ten pity friends in my ward... grrreat. Why couldn't I get through the semester without being humiliated in front of the entire ward?
I was at Walmart yesterday, and as I was checking out. The Walmart lady looks over my shoulder and stares...She then says, "ma'am! look at your baby" The baby in the other line had got into the mom's purse and found her cigarettes. The baby got a hold of a cigarette and put it in her mouth. The mom is still completely oblivious, while the older daughter sees and quickly gets rid of the cigarette. This is just a really funny mental image, but also kind of sad. I guess it is a "you had to be there story" But I thought that I would just share it anyways. haha, o man.
This week I worked on two final group projects....by my hacking self. Why do I get stuck with the loser groups who have the work ethic of a half dead sloth? I care too much about my grade to just fail the presentation and let the other group members learn a lesson. ugh I don't even know how to handle these kind of people. I know that I will always have to deal with people like this.... but I sure don't have to enjoy working with them though.

The test jitters (or spiders) and My amazing attempt at Raquetball
Greetings...
Life as we know it continues on. Midterms have come and gone. Is everyone ready for winter?
I had a test in my sports psychology class today. Dr. Lopour's tests are different, but I really like them. The test is not multiple choice, but it is fill in the blank and short answer. Most people say that these are harder, but I think that they are much easier. Well, I studied dilligently, and I was prepared for the test. Most of the people in the class were ill prepared and had the test jitters (but not me). I was relatively calm, but I had reached up to touch my ear when I felt a tickle on my fingers. I look at my hand and there is a spider right there! I fling it onto the desk and I am frozen thinking........huh? The girl next to me sees the spider and freaks out. I smash it with my foot, and I am still mildly confused. I think that dang spider was trying to throw me off my game. For the rest of my class I thought I was covered in spiders. (I totally aced the test though. score!) I went through a phase that I was completely terrified of spiders... but I guess I'm not anymore. The spider battle arena my brothers made may have made me realize that spiders aren't that bad... but still... I had a hackin spider crawling on me right before a huge test. gross.
My sports class just started the raquetball section. All I knew about raquetball was Shar was really good at it. yep. So Dr. Taylor spent thirty minutes trying to teaching me how to play hackin raquetball. I am pretty sure people just sat and laughed at me while I tried to hit the stupid ball towards the front wall. ugh. I hit my self with the ball and raquet several times, and the two other girls with me just laughed at my pathetic attempts at being coordinated. The second day went better, but I still have this nasty habit of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. (i.e. ball flying at my face, with opponent in mid swing)
Have you ever tried to get into a class, and all of the faculty just give you the run around. I am trying to get into this class, but I need special permission. My advisor sent me to Dr. Lambson, he sent me to Dr. Taylor, she sent me on a raging hunt for the guy who is supposedly teaching the class. I try to look him up. He is not on the faculty list (as far as SUU is concerned... this guy doesn't exist) Are you hackin' kiddin me? I feel like I am hunting for a mythical creature. Just put me in the classsss! So registration starts tomorrow... I may or may not wake up at midnight tonight and be the first to register for next semester classes. Now I ask you... Am I cool or ridiculously lame? ponder that.

Last Names, Air Conditioning, and My Own Old Lady Choir
A couple of interesting things happened to me this week. I was in Relief Society, and the girl finished the lesson. I was totally ready to get out of there and go home. The presidency decided that we all needed to stand up and introduce ourselves. This made us get out eight minutes overtime! (on a FAST sunday) (Not that I was keeping track or anything) So anyways, this girl stood up and introduced herself, ... at first I thought that I heard her wrong, but no. Her last name is... (pause for dramatic effect) Savage. That. is. the. coolest. last. name. ever. I would die to have my last name be Savage. "Hi, my name is Janessa Savage" muahahahha! I think that you could get away with so much crap if that was your last name. People automatically wonder if you really are a savage. Awesome! Also, a good last name would be Rogue. tee hee. This is what I foresee in my future. (a cool last name... ? is that lame or weird, I can't decide). No one would ever forget your last name, especially if you acted like a savage or a rogue. This is the best excuse to act crazy. I may or may not introduce myself as Janessa Rogue Savage from now on... (just to warn you)
My room in my apartment is very plain. But there is one thing that drives me crazy. The air conditioning vent is right under the desk. So the AC turns on and the lower half of my body FREEZES! I just sit at this desk and wonder why I am shivering when it is ninety degrees outside. Bah! Ridiculous! (and this is the story of my pathetic life as a college student). I know that it will hopefully be nice when it is winter time, but I am on edge about the vent under my frostbitten toes. Don't mess with Janessa Rogue Savage (she is feeling more and more like a savage rogue)
Finally, I want to tell you about my 8 AM swimming class. I wake up early and jump into a pool. (not the best start to a full day of classes) We start swimming, and then we hear this eery moaning coming from the other side of the pool... It is super creepy if you don't know what is happening. I start to listen closer and I realize that people are singing... These (really) old ladies have water aerobics in the shallow end. And they sing throughout their entire workout. No offense, but they don't exactly sound like the Tabernacle Choir. Who sings during water aerobics?!? creepy. I recognize a couple of the songs, and they are really old and classic (and depressing) The echo is so bad that I cannot decipher most of the old lady songs. My coach said that the lifeguards have all of the songs memorized. (Those poor poor lifeguards, I pity them and fear for their sanity) So the entire forty minutes of lap swimming is improved by old women moaning/singing on the other side of the pool. (it is the best part of my day?.... not! Food is the best part of my day! how could you think otherwise)So I thought that I would just tell you about my Monday and Wednesday mornings, (watching people struggle to swim, and watch the life force of old women ebb from their mortal bodies via their vocal chords) I hope that you enjoyed my lovely experiences as a hackin college student. Ciao!

Utilities and Chocolate Covered Almonds
Happy Sunday everyone.
You would not believe what happened this weekend. On Friday I came home from running and turned on the shower. I kinda noticed that the water was not getting very warm, but I was so hot and sweaty I didn't even care. Later that day my roommate asked if our gas was turned on, because she couldn't get the hot water to work. We both soon realized that our gas has been turned off. I ask my roommate if the manager ever told her if we had to do anything when we moved in and she said no. At the first of the year my roomie promised to make sure that everything was worked out with the utilities so we didn't have to worry about. Naturally, she forgot to do it. They turned off our gas, and the manager never even mentioned that we had to call the gas company and change it to our names. o hackin.... so due to my roommate's and the manager's forgetfullness and lack of responsibility. I had to spend a full weekend without any hot water. grrrreeeaattt. I can also confirm that cold showers are absolutely no fun, (unless you go running beforehand). oi. I am such a wimp when it comes to the cold. I don't know how I survived three seasons of lacrosse practice in January and February.
Since the beginning of my life, I have been very dependant of food. (not just physically, but emotionally also.) Some girls need boyfriends or shopping to deal with stuff, but not me. I need food. And the food that I have been using to eat my feelings lately is chocolate covered almonds from Costco... ya... It is hackin delicious and heaven on earth (I reccommend them) BUT I ran out of them on Thursday, and there is no Costco in Cedar City. So I have had a slight break down this weekend due to my addiction to chocolate covered almonds... (Pathetic story) I watched the stupid Benjamin Button movie and ate the almonds the whole three hours... uhhhhh wow I am so cool. AND I have two tests to study for, and I totally blew off studying so I could eat and watch pointless television. .. I may or may not gain a million pounds this semester. I hope that next semester that I will be so busy that I can't afford to procrastinate. And for those of you who know me... I NEVER procrastinate... until now. Well, I am guessing that my bad test scores will get me motivated again soon. So I will just have to tough it out until I bomb these tests. (And tough it out means watching pointless television while desperately craving chocolate covered almonds almost to the point of insanity...) so.... on that happy note. I am going to go watch a stupid movie.
Later.

Pine Trees, Dishes, and the Cedar City Church Scene
Happy Birthday to my brothers! Artem's birthday was yesterday, and Devin's birthday is tomorrow. yay!
Alright. down to business.
My classes are going well. I am doing prerequisites right now, so my classes are pretty easy. My swimming class is surprisingly easy. and I am half way done with my biology online class. Score! I am trying to motivate my hospitality management group to do the project right now instead of waiting til the end of the semester. I will let ya know how that works out.
I was running to one of my classes and I passed this gigantic pine tree on campus. As I pass the tree I see this girl just crawl out from underneath the branches, and then I see the guy come out too. They start folding a plastic tarp and a sleeping bag! They are totally living in the giant pine tree on campus. what? Now that is cheap housing. The hackin pine tree has some secret hide out spot underneath. That is probably where all of the people go to smoke or something between classes. o man, I probably had the stupidest look on my face when the girl popped out of no where!
My roommates don't believe in cleanliness. I have never seen a pile of dishes grow that high out of the sink. wow. I want to just clean their dumb dishes, but I don't know what cupboards they put them in when they are clean. My room is above the kitchen, and my roomies forget that they are cooking and they burn a lot of food. Almost everyday I run downstairs to make sure our apartment is not on fire. oi. The story of my life.
I went to my new ward today. and.... The girls outnumber the guys three to one.. of course. always in cedar city. I walk in and everyone is just watching (and judging) everyone else. None of the guys are good looking, so now, (naturally) I am not even going to try and get ready for church anymore. yes! ponytail and whatever dress i can find each sunday. score!
Well, I don't have much else to say about school, except my incapability in finding employment. (and even I don't want to hear me whine about it)
Peace out. I gotta go downstairs and see if anything is on fire again.

Peace out. I gotta go downstairs and see if anything is on fire again.

The summer AND the first of the year college impressions
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I apologize for not writing in so very long. It has been a crazy couple of weeks. Well, let us start from the beginning.
Summer
After my cali trip.... I worked worked worked. I roofed with my dad a few times over the summer. It was a good job, but I don't know if I could do it for the rest of my life. My brothers said that I only came to work because I had entertainment value. I was only useful to crack stupid jokes and complain?! I doubt it! I worked my butt off. Although I do admit that I had a few break downs that could be comical. One in particular occurred in Artic Circle. We had just finished a roof and the WHOLE time there wasn't a cloud in the sky. It must have been a 105 degrees on that roof. The moment we stepped into the artic circle, a gigantic thundercloud came and the temp dropped like twenty degrees. uhhh This is what was said, "I'm tired"(devin) "I'm cold" (dad) "I'M PISSED, Look at all the clouds!" (me) they all turn and look at me and I start laugh crying and I couldn't stop. My frustration finally took hold and I am pretty sure everyone was staring at us because we all couldn't stop laughing (and me kind of crying). o boy. My dad didn't invite me to come help them as much after that little public emotional breakdown. I complained a lot, but my dad couldn't fire me cuz I am his daughter. yep... oops. maybe I should work on having self control.
Lifeguarding. I saved two kids from drowning this summer... and lost ten thousand brain cells. Lifeguarding is gossip central. Everyone sits in the guard room and just gossips about everyone else. I know way too much about most of the lifeguards love lifes... yuck. and I witnessed some pretty gross stuff at the pool. I am certain that I am never going to take my kids to a public pool... it is gross. vomit,diarrhea,poop,unidentifable human excrement. I have seen it all. The crazy people that I have seen have not been much better. wow. I have developed a great appreciation for clouds and lightning. It is the best thing, In FACT there was a poem written for clouds. It was written by a brilliant poet while he or she was working on a roof... this is how it goes:

Clouds
In the beginning there was only sun,
And that my friend is not fun.
On the horizon came a beautiful sight,
A cloud showed up for an epic fight.
Against all odds the fluffy clouds won!
And this poem is thanks for what they have done.
Although the sun provides vitamin D,
Clouds... you are cancer free.
When you are high in the sky you look kind of lazy,
But when you aren't there I go crazy.
I don't care whether your black, grey, or white.
I want you here day and night.
Sometimes you rain on my parade,
But at least you give me some shade.
I always await your return
To save me from a wicked sunburn.
This poem is coming to an end,
And all I have to say is clouds are my best friend.
Written by Pistachio the Poet and Friends
yes I know that the poem was absolutely brilliant!
So I also ran a 5K with half of my family. I didn't do well, and Artem kicked my trash! what? I was shocked. I didnt win any stupid prizes and I had to go straight to work afterwards. ugh. So after that epic failure I had my half marathon to look forward to. Shawn, Chelsea, and I went down to Bryce Canyon and I proceeded to almost kill myself by running for 2 hours straight. holy crap that sucked. But is was rewarding, and now I can say that I did it. my official time was 2:02:08. Dang! I want two hours flat but whatevs. I may or may not run a half marathon again... Shawn just totally kicked my trash and surprised himself by beating his previous time with NO TRAINING! bah!
Okay, what else happened this summer? O! Shawn and Chelsea bought a house and a puppy. The puppy is so cute! Toby is a corge who can get whatever he wants by just staring deep into your eyes... puppy charm power! I also had a Harry Potter phase and reread all of the books and watched all of the movies... yep I am so cool. and! Artem is now as tall as me, he definitely fits into our family perfectly... but i DO NOT want to be the shortest sibling... ugh. Aubrey is playing varsity volleyball and my brothers and parents are just being married and stuff...
okay! moving on.
College (sophomore year)
I have my own private room and bathroom. I am in heaven! My new apartment is off campus and also a 15 minute walk.... (not so fun) But! I have a car this time. awesome! I have two roommates. they are sisters named Tori and Taylor. (although they have a bit of a swearing problem and they are completely obsessed with The OC.) They are from St. George and pretty normal. I do have to deal with the sister fighting stuff but they are cool. We are all way blonde, so we are the blonde girl apartment on the block. The problem is that they both have boyfriends and I definitely don't. so I am the hackin' oddball of the group. They are making dinner tomorrow and they want me to ask someone to come..... crap! I don't know any guys. So I will be the fifth wheel on that date,.. greatttt. So, my mom helped me move in, cuz she is the best! I dont know what I would do without her. It took me three days to get my internet to work. bah! hackin. The management for these apartments is not very good. in fact, the dudes really creep me out. But I am all set for this semester and I hope that I can survive swimming class.
My classes seem pretty cool. The problem with a small school like SUU is that I keep running into everyone. and I am terrible with names. They come up and start talking to me and I don't remember which class we had together... uh awkward. Another strange thing is that most of my professors this semester are doctors... So I call them Dr. whatever, and I find them much more intimidating. Is that weird? So I have this random sports skills class and we are playing doubles volleyball, pickleball, racquetball, and social dance. haha! I am going to look like a fool. Shar should have taught me how to play racquetball before i came down here. o well. I talked to my advisor (DR.! Lambson) (also totally intimidated by the Dr. thing) and he said I could graduate in three semesters... yesh! score. Except the two semesters after this one are going to absolutely totally stink! it is gonna be so hard!
My ward seems okay. I came in late to sacrament and everyone just stared at me as I found a seat... It is pretty funny cuz all the freshmen boys are on the prowl. haha! They are like passing out their numbers to all of the girls. it is pretty funny. well, my mom and I went shopping for food. We got tons of food, but I am too lazy to cook any of it! My appetite isn't as big now that I am not at home. I go to the kitchen and try to cook dinner... and I just end up eating pudding and fruit leather. oops. and to think that I wanted to minor in Nutrition. so I am going to conclude this blog with a quote that is completely true....
"Youth is wasted on the young, and wealth is wasted on the old."

Change of Life Plans
So I would always complain to my dad about how I have to make all of the major life decisions right now when I am only 19... My dad said, Ya it is hard, but look at the positive. You can change your life plans in the blink of an eye, and your not behind or too far in to something so you cannot quit. I don't know if that makes sense, but it was a crazy thing to think about.
well.... guess what!? I changed all of my life plans! surprise!!! (well no surprise because i am known for being ridiculously indecisive) anyways.... I know that you can't wait to see what I am going to do next.... maybe
So Weber State is out of the picture. Their website was super confusing, and I had a hard time finding out about the information that I needed. So, I started to sign up for classes and I realized that it would take me another year to finish all of the prerequisites before I could even get in to the program. I then realized that my year at SUU and all of the college classes that I took in high school did not help me at all and I would have to start all over. Instead of being ahead, I was behind in school. HECK NO!! I am not going to stand for that. So I was super cranky and kind of (completely) freaking out when my mom decided to talk to me. We started to go over the things that I want to do with my life, and I decided that I wanted to change my major. ta da! I realized that I either wanted to go to the U of U or return to SUU. The U of U didn't work out, so... (hard to believe) I am going back to Cedar City in the fall.... yay? uhhhh
I know you care so I am writing down my vague life plan... ish
I have three semesters left at SUU, (Fall 2010, Spring 2011, Fall 2011) and then I will graduate with my Bachelor's Degree in exercise science and a minor in coaching (maybe). I graduate the week after I turn 21. and then I will have a few months to make money. My mom suggested a European trip during this time and I am very tempted. Then, I am totally going on a mission! too cool!! I would get home 18 months later and apply for school again. I want to get a Masters degree ( but I don't know what it will be... I'll figure it out eventually) (maybe) and! I want to be certified in massage therapy. I have thought about it a few times over the years and Chelsea mentioned it... and I thought that it could be a very viable option for me. so ya...... I have a feeling that this plan is not very permenant at all. But at least I have more than the next few months of my future planned out (ish) so ya... the end
So hackin Adam will finally come back to Utah in two and a half weeks. AND! Dani left to go to Germany for two weeks last Saturday. So now officially most of my friends are scattered around the world right now. ugh. O ya! and murray park flooded last night so my lifeguarding hours might be cut down a bit until they clean it all up. Working with my dad is totally killer. We are fixing up a house and roofing. It is hard work, but it makes the time go by quickly. so ya....
Chelsea has inspired me again because of her blog. She wrote a few random things about herself and I thought it was really funny so I thought I would try it out and see if it is as fun as she says it is.
1.I hackin' love action movies (but I secretly like chick flicks) [except not the stupid chick flicks!]
2.I stole a cool ringtone from Darin and I wait around for someone to text me, just so I can hear it go off.
3. crunchy peanut butter and brown sugar on wheat bread is what I live for!!!
4.I am so worried about my future, I sometimes forget the present
5. My fettish right now is 12 dollar watches from Walmart.
Well, I am going to go shave my cat now. (your jealous)

The Best Weekend Of My Life (so far)
An Idea:
So last Sunday I was texting Adam (he is in San Diego in infantry training) and I mentioned that Dani and I wanted to come on a road trip to California. We thought that it would be fun to visit him during our trip. Adam says that this weekend or memorial day weekend would be the best times to come visit so we thought it would be cool to go the next weekend. So I get a hold of Dani and she says that she could probably go. Her dad is coming back from the middle east next week, but she would be home in time. So we tell adam that we are coming.
The planning:
Dani and I realize we have like two days to plan this sudden road trip to California. We had never seriously talked about going until now. Dani had totaled her car before and she had a rental car. We decided to take her Yaris to california. We named it Zippy because it was just ... really cool. So we just planned in two days and bought some food.
Wednesday Night:
Dani and I pack all of our stuff in this little car, and we take off wednesday night. Dani forgets her purse so we have to backtrack, but that helped us miss rush hour. We drove for four hours to St. George. We stayed the night in Dani's grandparents house. It was empty and really nice pit stop. We went straight to bed that night and woke up early in the morning to mow the lawn and finish the drive to California.
Thursday:
We woke up and drove. The drive was fine. I drove through the Mojave Desert and into California. We got stopped at the border for carrying fruit, but luckily the oranges were originally from California. The dude was really rude about it cuz we didnt know whether he was signalling us to stop or to keep driving. He meant stop so we almost got in trouble. Dani was nervous so she insisted on driving while we were in California. and I dont blame her. They drive very differently over there. So we make it to Fallbrook, California. it is just east of Camp Pendleton, we are staying at Dani's cousins house. He was at Disneyland so we got his house to ourselves. We got there in the afternoon and we watched Lord of the Rings while Dani tried to fax something to her new work. We went to get Mexican food and we went and slept on Dave's (Dani's cousin) couches.
Friday:
We wake up the next morning and I went on a run around the neighborhood. I hackin went running forever, but i finally found my way back. I shower, but then they decided that we wanted to go to the beach. We drive an hour to Oceanside beach and we sit on the beach. It was beautiful, but the water was cold. We head home, and we got caught in some traffic. Dani and I decided to go to her cousin's lacrosse game. Adam got off early and he wanted us to come get him. He also informs us that he wants to bring a fellow marine along. His name is Jonah Nelsen and he is also from Utah. We hurry to the base, and Dani's military ID gets us onto the base. We got a little lost on the base and Dani got a little frustrated, but we finally found our way to Adam's place. We met Jonah and he was really cool. It was super awkward because Dani and I were like the only girls in sight. Haha, it was super bad, but we pack up in the car. Dani and I brought too much stuff and Adam and Jonah had to really squish in the back... oops. So we head up to Los Angeles. We were supposed to stay in Adam's cousins three million dollar beach house, but jeremy had accidentally double booked the house and so Jeremy booked us a hotel called Shutters. We finally make it there thanks to the miracle called GPS, but we just named her JJ. I would like to give a shout out to gps. I dont know how people did road trips without them. JJ and I grew very close. The gps and I became one, I spent many hours looking at that thing. It saved our lives!! Well we get to L.A. and make it to the hotel, and we pull in and they automatically valet park the car. We kind of are confused and we walk in and the hotel is so super fancy! We have duffel bags and pillows and everyone else is all dressed up and wealthy. We must have been a pretty comical sight to those people. We get to our rooms and they are so nice. We come to find out that this is one of the best hotels in L.A. (thank you Jeremy!) Adam mentions that David is in California so we give him a call. He says that he is recording at a friends house. We realize that he is also in Santa Monica and he is like five minutes away. We head over there and we came to the cutest house. David is still recording when we get there so we hang out with the other people there. They were so interesting to talk to and they were a little drunk. We talk for a couple hours and it is like midnight when David finally finishes recording. We go in to this way cool studio in the backyard and listen to his new song. It was really inspiring and good. We were talking, and they asked if we would snap and clap for the song. So we did, haha we were not very good but it didn't matter. And then they wanted us to be back up singers for the chorus. we thought it was a joke but they were serious. They got everyone to join in and sing with us, and then they doubled the track. We didnt sound very good but we were put in the song and it sounded awesome. We had so much fun together. By this time, it was like three in the morning. The boys had been up for almost 22 hours. We were all exhausted. Danielle said that if they use our voices and the song got big... we would get paid royalties.. hahahaha! we went to the hotel and went to sleep.
Saturday:
We slept in the next day and woke up to go out on the beach path. We borrowed Jeremy's segways and took them for a ride. It was so much fun. I had strained my calf running so i was kind of a gimp. We saw all of the shops and Dani did some shopping. Adam, Dani, David, and I went to the L.A. temple in the afternoon. Jonah stayed home because he didnt have his recommend with him. He napped, because he was so tired. He seemed to sleep everywhere that we went. It was really funny. The temple was beautiful! we had a great time. Adam baptized us, but the font was really shallow so I felt really bad for Adam. I was too tall. oops. We still had a great time though. We came back to the hotel and brought David back with us. We walked up to the pier and rode the ferris wheel. It was so much fun and the view was great. The ferris wheel was great and i think that it was the best part. We walked down the streets looking for a good place to eat afterwards. We finally found a place to eat at Buddha's Belly. It was delicious! We had a great time, and then we headed back to the hotel. Jonah, Adam, and Dani had to return the segways to Jeremy's house so David and I went to a cafe to get hot chocolate while they were gone. The cafe was great, and we came back and went to sleep because we were so tired.
Sunday:
David wanted to come to church with us so we had to make room for him in the Yaris... we were checking out of our hotel so we had to fit all of our luggage and five people in the car. You may think that is impossible, but false... we did it. We found a ward to go to, and we went. It was a great service. Adam and Jonah started to doze off, but they stayed awake...mostly. It was hilarious when every time that Dani looked at Adam, he would jerk awake. We called it her piercing glare. it was really funny to watch. Well after church, we had to drop off David on the way back to Camp Pendleton. We were running short on time so his aunt had to pick him up from the exit that we left him at. This whole drive i had David's luggage and a sleeping bag on my lap. We were really cramped in the car. I felt bad for the three boys sitting in the back seat... oops. We get back to Camp Pendleton with time to spare, so we drive through the base to get to a Subway. We ate and started to drive back. We almost hit a squirrel and Dani and I flipped. We made it there safely and said our goodbyes. Dani and I drove down to San Diego to stay with her aunt. We were so tired that night that we just watched tv and then went to bed at nine. We slept for almost twelve hours.
Monday:
We slept in, but as soon as we woke up, we got ready to leave. Dani and I decided that we were going to drive the entire way home today, so we did not have to sleep in St. George again. We started our drive, and finally got out of the city. We then started to listen to the second half of the seventh harry potter book on cd to keep us preoccupied. I drove to St. George, and then Dani finished the drive home with one of the less interesting pit stops at her Grandparents house. We arrived home at 11:30. and that concluded one of the best and craziest weekends I have ever experienced. I am grateful that we were safe, and it was amazing how everything seemed to work out perfectly.
So last Sunday I was texting Adam (he is in San Diego in infantry training) and I mentioned that Dani and I wanted to come on a road trip to California. We thought that it would be fun to visit him during our trip. Adam says that this weekend or memorial day weekend would be the best times to come visit so we thought it would be cool to go the next weekend.

You may think that is impossible, but false... we did it. We found a ward to go to, and we went. It was a great service. Adam and Jonah started to doze off, but they stayed awake...mostly. It was hilarious when every time that Dani looked at Adam, he would jerk awake. We called it her piercing glare. it was really funny to watch. Well after church, we had to drop off David on the way back to Camp Pendleton. We were running short on time so his aunt had to pick him up from the exit that we left him at. This whole drive i had David's luggage and a sleeping bag on my lap. We were really cramped in the car. I felt bad for the three boys sitting in the back seat... oops. We get back to Camp Pendleton with time to spare, so we drive through the base to get to a Subway. We ate and started to drive back. We almost hit a squirrel and Dani and I flipped. We made it there safely and said our goodbyes. Dani and I drove down to San Diego to stay with her aunt. We were so tired that night that we just watched tv and then went to bed at nine. We slept for almost twelve hours.
Monday:
We slept in, but as soon as we woke up, we got ready to leave. Dani and I decided that we were going to drive the entire way home today, so we did not have to sleep in St. George again. We started our drive, and finally got out of the city. We then started to listen to the second half of the seventh harry potter book on cd to keep us preoccupied. I drove to St. George, and then Dani finished the drive home with one of the less interesting pit stops at her Grandparents house. We arrived home at 11:30. and that concluded one of the best and craziest weekends I have ever experienced. I am grateful that we were safe, and it was amazing how everything seemed to work out perfectly.

SPRING TIME 2010!
Spring is here, but Cedar City weather is bipolar, so do not fear, It is totally snowing right now... o my heck. I haven't blogged in forever... dang. I think Cedar City has some weird time warp problem. The time seems to go by so fast and slow at the same time... how does that even work?! I have been a little preoccupied in the last month or so. Okay I am going to split all of this crap up so i can remember it all.
Shawn and Chelsea's wedding was absolutely amazing! we had a blast. The reception was beautiful. I was a bridesmaid and got a cute dress. Chelsea is a hackin' designer chick! She is totally planning my wedding... (We should probably say "if" i have a wedding because my boy rate at the moment and since forever has been a big fat 0) haha i guess we shall see. It doesnt help that most of the guys in cedar are gay, married, or have no personal hygiene. hmmm Well anyways, I have a story related to the wedding. So I parked in a parking garage in salt lake when we went to the temple and after they got married i went back to my car with my siblings. When we try to get out of the garage there is no person there to take my ticket. I find out that it is an automatic one and it only takes Visa... are you kidding I only have a Discover card! So i back out and call my bro for help, but of course. The machine had already taken my ticket and wouldnt give it back.... crap. no money or ticket. And it says there is a fifteen dollar lost ticket fee. O MY! My brother comes and we call for help. ( you would think I would have this whole parking garage thing down because that is what i did during christmas break but no... i dont) but this guy comes and just lets us out of the garage for free... I had been stranded for an hour in the garage so i didnt get my nap.... i was pissed. i went and got my hair done(which was so cute) and headed straight for the reception. Dani and Adam came and i was so excited to see them! We had tons of fun and they were so nice and helped the family clean up afterwards. So the wedding day went well and dandy.
I have officially transferred to Weber State University. I will be going there in the Fall. O ya!!! and i got a full tuition scholarship because of my grades. Score! I am glad that i won't be three hours away now. And dont even ask me about where i am going to live because i have no clue... crap. and i need to figure out classes too. Weber's website is so totally confusing!! grrrrr hopefully i will find someone who will tell what to do. I finally figured out how SUU works and now i have to start all over with Weber. (kinda hackin frustrating) not only this but i have to figure out where i am going to get the money for this whole college thing... I plan to help my dad roof, but i am not much help and honestly,... it kinda sucks ( and it is even worse in the hot summer time) I feel so useless and weak compared to the guys. It pays really well and I am desperate for a job. O ya and i got my lifeguarding job back. yes! The new boss is different from lindsay. He had me come in for a full, legitimate interview... it was crazy weird. Well I got the job so now hopefully these two jobs will keep me busy during the summer. O ya and I am going to run the Bryce Canyon Half Marathon on July 17th. i am so excited!! Shawn is going to run it with me (hopefully, he is in the honeymoon phase so he isnt that dependable right now) ahah o ya! Dani and I are planning a road trip this summer... Sweet! i am soooo hacking excited. we are such deviants muhahaha. Adam wants us to come visit him cuz he is down there for infantry camp, but we shall see where the wild california winds take us... ? (hey, im confused and i am the one writing it..) I also got the crazy idea to hike the grand canyon rim to rim, now i just have to find someone who is willing to do it with me... that could be a problem.
Southern Utah University........ yep. finals are next week. I have five finals, but one is a movie I am making with three other girls. We based it on the show: A thousand ways to die. But we substituted shakespearean deaths so I hope that it will turn out well. We are putting it on Youtube soon so you can totally watch it and make fun of me pretending to be hackin King Lear. o boy. All the rest of the tests are going to be normal tests.. bleh. I have no motivation to study. I just finished my final essay on shes the man. Ya thats right. I wrote a serious, academic, 7 page paper on the funniest show of all time. And it is pretty good, not that i am bragging. psychology, chemistry, sports nutrition, and volleyball : after these tests I will be home free by next thursday. I am glad to be going home because I think that all of the girls in my hall are getting edgy and restless. We are slowly driving each other crazy.. It is weird that I might not ever see any of these girls again... I lived with them for nine months!! wow I cant believe that i have been in college for an entire year. I still feel like an insecure high school kid who doesnt know what is going on in the world. hopefully that will pass someday.
Adam got called on his mission to the Phillipines!! Too Cool. I am so excited for him. Not so much fun for me though. I spent the last three months doing nothing cuz he was at boot camp.. ugh. I am sad cuz we never got to really just hang out when he was home for a couple of days. Whenever we saw each other we had tons of people around so we couldnt really talk or anything. O well, i guess i will see him when he gets back from infantry.
Now that it is warm, I have to play lacrosse! I am going bananas. Everyone is playing basketball and soccer, but I hackin stink at those. I want to play a sport that i am good at soooo bad. I am planning on rounding up some lacrosse buddies to play when i get back to salt lake. I have also become addicted to the show Bones. It is on netflix and i cannot stop watching it! BAh no self control. I should be studying but i watch Bones instead.. hmmmm and a girl in my hall (Sydnee) loves Smallville now so we have to watch those episodes too. Smallville is on its ninth season and it still has one more to go! holy cow.
One more story (cuz it is buggin me) we gave mom a date night for her birthday. I was at home for the wedding and we cooked the parentals a dinner and sent them off to a movie. But Aubrey and Artem totally ditched and didnt help. (shawn was on his honeymoon, so no blame there) Devin helped cook but then he had to leave for a date, so guess who was stuck with cooking and cleaning the whole kitchen! bah me! I guess i shouldnt blame them, I was once (and still might be) a crazy teenager but still. It hurt mom's feelings that everyone just ditched out on their present to her. sigh... whatevs. now that i wrote it down, i might stop being so bugged about it. haha phew! relief
Okay so.. i am sick of writing. peace out

chemistry, mornings, and weddings
Greetings everyone, (if anyone actually reads this, haha!) well, It is now February 1st! One month of school done. Cool. I have fallen back in to the lovely life routine in Juniper Hall! Okay we will just take the elements of my hackin' life one at a time...
Classes:
My classes are way harder than last semester. I have to do a lot of reading. Chemistry is manageable. Only because I took it in high school. If anyone is planning on taking chemistry in college, I strongly recommend (no I command) you to take honors chemistry in high school. Holy cow that class is so much easier when I have already covered most of the concepts. I don't know how people handle it when they have never taken chemistry before. My volleyball class is hackin' sweet! We are just learning the basic techniques right now but it is totally fun. My professor actually played volleyball with my cousin, Anthony, in high school. So it is pretty weird when your professor tells you that he hung out and played tons of volleyball in your backyard a few years ago. What the heck are you supposed to say?! (O ya I bet I looked out the window and saw you in my backyard when I was like 12 and now you are my professor... uh...) awkward! Anyways, it is pretty funny. My institute class is amazing. I never knew the Pearl of Great Price was so cool!! Dude. So I got my first C on an assignment. We are supposed to blog about Shakespeare and then respond to another person's blog... I got a C on the response because mine was too short... I was like... In SHoCk! wow My mom will be so proud.... Maybe. O! and my psychology professor gives us take home tests and guess what?! The person who had my book before me highlighted and numbered all of the answers to the test! My professor has been giving the same test for a few semesters at least. Too cool. It took like twenty minutes to do the whole test! I had a test on the medical terminology of the male reporductive system... GROSS!! Ew TMI bleh scarred forever... boys are cahcah. Okay anyways I am handling my classes okay and staying pretty busy, because one does not want to be bored in Cedar City ( it causes automatic Insanity)
New Room Mate: Heidi
Heidi is a saint. ... She is also hormonally balanced (double Bonus!) Heidi is a dancer and a super nice girl. She is from St. Geezy. (St. George for all of those who do not know way cool Cedar City slang) She listens to good music and goes to bed at a decent time. Although she is a morning person, but that is good because I am working on being more productive in the mornings (AKA actually being awake in the mornings) So I found out that I could have stayed in my old room, and had it to myself. For the same cost! Dang... but it probably is a good thing that I moved because I would be even more antisocial. I would just like dwell in my cave and never come out or talk to people. Muahaha!
Family:
My brother is getting married on April 8th. I am so very excited. Chelsea and Shawn are gonna be the coolest funniest couple ever! Finally! Well... aubrey is playing club volleyball, That pretty much takes over your life, but it is fun. I am glad that I don't have to be on another club team though. Artem is playing soccer and just chillin.. He is the coolest little brother ever. His accent is the cutest thing. Haha! so we got a new dog, and it the most annoying thing ever. It just yips and barks. The breed name is even annoying...maltipoo? Really? holy crap... (and i mean crap, that dog is a crap machine) but i guess he is pretty cute. Okay well... I gotta go study for more tests. Hakuna Matata!

I write because Dani says so...
Hello hello hello. I have just finished my second day back at college. And I am beginning to adjust... ish. Well I guess I should start off where I ended in the last post.
Beginning of December
I went back to school, ready to kick some finals trash... I studied like a hungry chicken in Austrailia. I took my finals with a moderate amount of stress. I passed! yay. Except I got straight A's so that whole 4.0 pressure is still dragging me down... another semester without a social life... crap! But I have hard classes in the Spring so i dont have to worry about straight A's for long, (insert maniacal laugh) I said farewell to my room mate for good and packed my stuff for the three week winter break that was ahead of me. :)
Winter Break
Done! yesh. I was home, I could relax and I would not have to worry about working hard. (Five minutes after I got home) ....... My mom was pressuring me to get a job at that very second. So I applied for toyrus and got rejected! It was too late in the Christmas season... bah. But, luckily, my home teacher is the coolest ever and he got me a job at the Gateway mall. Guess what i did... I drove a golf cart all day. Totally cool! I would drive up and down the mall and offer rides to customers. My golfcarts name was Roy The JingleCart. (Insert Heroic Music) I got hourly pay and tips. It was a miracle job. I ran into some pretty hilarious people, but there was one problem. IT IS THE MIDDLE OF WINTER! I have never been so cold in my life, and that is saying something. My lacrosse season would start in January and go until May... We would practice in every weather imaginable. This job just had me sitting on a golf cart, I probably burrned a million calories from shivering so much. (and i even wore 5 layers of clothing) holy crap... but there was a dark side to this job... late at night when no one wanted a ride... i would have to direct traffic instead. ugh! People are so nasty in the parking garages. I swear I almost got hit a few times. I feel for those police officers and construction men... They put up with a lot of crap. These people were sooo stubborn, I would tell them to go to the other exit and get out instantly, but they insist on waiting in the fifteen minute line to get out of the other exit. I mean Come On People! I want you out of this garage as much as you want to get out. It is like the moment people walk into a parking garage, they are grumpy and enraged for absolutely no reason. The drivers are so stupid. We would have three exits open, and they would all line up in one exit... DUH! Well it was a really good job, when I didave frostbite. I met a lot of interesting people. Okay, other than my job (which was the majority of my break) I went to family parties and movies. Both were fun and good. My brother proposed... yaya im so excited. Adam left to boot camp, crap now i have no social life. And i spent 500 hackin dollars on books! AH!
Beginning of the Spring Semester at SUU
I have attended all of my classes now.... wow. It is a bit overwhelming. I have 18 credits and only one fun ish class. You know how you have some teachers who are excited to teach you things and you feel like you might actually keep up with the stuff in that class. I didnt have any of those teachers this semester. I got all of the teachers who try to scare the students to death, even scare them into working hard at the first of the semester... Well it worked, I am practically peeing my pants every ten minutes,,, no, every time I think about my professors my bladder is overreactive. bleh. Well, we shall see if these teachers are all bark and no bite... if not, the next time you will see me, I might just be a pile of chewed up flesh trying to learn chemistry. Well I have to go move in with my new roomie, wish me luck!!
