"*GASP* I KNOW- isn't it GORGEOUS???? I'm just so blessed to have this body..." -Bride Wars

I'm eating an egg burritoooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!

Oh... haha... and the quoted title has nothing to do with anything... I'm just in a really humorous mood today, and I love that quote! haha

Haha on another note, today and yesterday have collectively been good days. Besides eating my egg burritos, I've also enjoyed warm sun and a new look. ;) I feel like singing all the time, and I do! It's awesome! I'm feeling really spectacular, especially since yesterday afternoon.

I think about Summer a lot lately. What's it going to bring??? I've got a lot going on:

May: 

-End of the Year Recital at The Pointe, which means that we all have a lot to do in preparing for it. Not to mention registration... yikes... can't wait to be attacked by excited mothers and cursed as we shut and lock the doors haha. Good times huh Janene?

- Getting a new vehicle! I'm not sure what exactly I'm getting now. I was initially thinking a Subaru Outback (well... Ultimately I want that), but I'm starting to look into bullet bikes. I know it sounds crazy! But think of the gas I'd save!!!!!! Plus.. HOT. I want one... I've always dreamed of rollin up and whipping off my helmet haha. Yahhhh..... probably a stupid idea. Haha let's just say that, most likely, I'm getting a Subaru Outback :D

- Holly's wedding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe one more of my BEST friends is tying the knot.

-A dear, dear friend comes home from his mission finally!!!! It's going to be so fun to take a road trip to say howdy after forever!

- California Trip hopefully! I really want to go out and find my chi on the beach, go whale watching, boulder on sea cliffs (FINALLY. BLI), and just be plain spontaneous for a few days :)

June:


This is my month of adventure. I work a lot, but I also intend to head down to St. G (dragging Jessica with me despite her hatred of car rides haha) to scale some red rock at least once. I also am going to go fishing, camping, and horseback riding a LOT. It's about time I got back on the horse ;) I also think I'll pick up my dirtbiking again this summer- I found some good trails down in Provo, so I'll just bring that sucker down and rip em all up since all my old ones are now houses.

Boating people- get ready for me not being scared of the tubes anymore. I'm not a frail little girl anymore- I work out ;) haha

It's not as eventful as May, but it's going to be intense anyway.

July:


-This month is going to be spent LIVING IT UP. I can't even wait for July. Think of all the holidays! Plus, we have our annual dance comp,  "Give Me a Chance and I'll Show You My Dance" this month! Ya know what that means? ENDLESS numbers of AMAZING dancers from ALL OVER THE PLACE in one spot. Legit.

-I also am heading to Hawaii for almost two weeks!!!! :D How fantastic!!!!!! I was planning on moving there for the summer for a job, but the grant I was going on fell through, so no longer. Hey-- That obviously means I've got something here for me in Utah. It's just a different opportunity, likely better. My Hawaii trip will make up for the bummer news and realization that I won't be living there anytime soon.

- Brad. Paisley. Stadium. Of. Fire. Yes.

August

- Lake POWELL!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is my favorite place in the continental United States of America. The fact that we are hitting Hawaii and Lake Powell in one summer is a dream and a half.

- I'm going to start my second job at the end of August. Taking a semester of school off to earn some money :) I mean, I'm so ahead right now. It's totally chill that I take a break for the first time in 5 semesters ( not including last summer- I admit I wasn't in school then). And it's going to be CNA work again! It's hard work, but I feel so fulfilled when I serve other people.


What a summer!!!!!!!!!!!! It's going to be great.

Wow. How time flies, right? It's kind of weird to me that I turn 21 this year. My 21st year in existence and I  still don't have a clue lol. But you know what? It's always going to be how I am I think. Young at heart. I want to be a lot like my boss, Janene. She's hysterical!  Not only is she the funniest person in America, she also happens to be carefree, sweet, GORGEOUS, sporty, and successful ( in both business and family life) all in one. Talk about the whole package! I want to be that. I want to be able to retain my craziness and my thirst for adventure while being the responsible, loving woman that people look to in times of need. My kids will probably be embarrassed by me often haha but whatevs- they'll secretly love it!

God sure has blessed me! I'm such a privileged person. Really. By definition, I am spoiled! Statistics show that my position- having a stable family, having my personal finances in check, living with mostly-sane people (haha love you all), getting close to the end of my degree, enjoying luxuries like Hawaii and Lake Powell, and having a great job and another job in front of me without even trying hard- is like a one-in-a-million life. I'm spoiled.

I love my crazy, beautiful life. Welcome to it ya'll.

Yup... I'm Yellow too!!!! No big deal haha

     

I had to copy Jessica on this one- she found all this stuff about yellow personality types, and I just HAD to put it up on my blog cuz it's SO TRUE!!!!!! I'm such a yellow personality. I also have a lot of red and a hint of blue. Funny huh? I like to define myself, because once something is properly defined, it is empowered. And who doesn't like to empower themselves? I feel like there is a lot to learn from the limitations listed: I really think that those are truly some of my greatest weaknesses, and so now I really can work on them!!!! I love it ;) Check it!

 YELLOW PERSONALITY TYPES:

Yellows value play. Yellows consider life to be a party and they're hosting.

Yellows need intimacy. Yellows often appear so nonchalant that people think they do not care about anything. Nothing could be further from the truth. 

Yellows want to be popular. Yellows like to be at center stage. Socially looking good is very important to them. Friendships command a high priority in their lives because popularity answers one of their basic needs. - the need for approval. Yellows are highly verbal. They relish good conversation. But they can also go with the flow - they can chit-chat superficially with the best of them.Yellows like action. Easily bored, Yellows seek adventure. They can never sit still for long. They choose friends who, like them, refuse to allow the "boring details" to get in the way of the most important thing in life - play.Yellows are motivated by Fun. Without their natural talents of enthusiasm and optimism, the world would be a boring place for all. They are here to have a great time. Yellows have an innate ability to be happy. They believe it is okay to play and people who don’t understand this have limited minds. They are the people who get up in the morning and sing to the Bon Jovi tune, “Until I’m six feet under, baby I don’t need a bed. Gonna live while I’m alive–—I’ll sleep when I’m dead.” Yellows love to enjoy life. They have a mental attitude that allows them to appreciate what they have rather than be miserable over what they don’t . They spend much of their time charming everyone in an entertaining way. Robin Williams is a good example. Can you imagine growing up as his child? What a fun dad. He has that child-like innocence and a hope that inspires the masses.

Yellow Strengths Yellows tend to spend their time around people. They love to be with others. In like manner, people like to take care of and be around Yellows. People feel better about themselves when with Yellows because of their positive energy. They are optimistic and really believe the best is yet to come. Yellows are enthusiastic. They quickly respond to anything that appears fun or a new adventure. However, they are contented with more playful adventure, not the challenging adventure of the Reds. They prefer activities without too much risk or potential for pain. Instead, they prefer activities that involve many people having a good time together. They are persuasive, so don’t be surprised if Yellows haul you off to do something unexpected. You don’t even have to be someone special to them. They may have just met you an hour ago, but now you are invited to their house for dinner that night. They have difficulty sitting through a boring lecture without becoming the entertainer. Their spontaneous nature is always looking for something new to do. They will be the ones looking at the local rag to find new events in town because it is a chance to meet new people.

Yellow Limitations Yellows often lack the commitment necessary to create long-term success for themselves. Yellows always believe the best is going to happen to them, even when their ship is sinking. While other people look at them and think, “How can you be successful? You’re a mess.” Lady Luck tends to smile on them and bail them out, even when they don’t deserve it. They develop friendships with ease but can be very self-centered. For example, they don’t hesitate blowing off plans with someone if a better offer comes along. As a result, they often have many, many friends but only on a superficial level. Their self-centered nature can block them from developing deep, meaningful relationship.

Hi America- The gym is AMAZING!

This is the most ritard entry ever considering that fact that I have pretty much nothing inspiring for myself or anyone else to post, but I just felt the need to state how much I freaking ADORE the gym. I've lost about ten pounds in two weeks, lost a pant size at LEAST, and I'm full of energy all the time. Weird thing is, I can eat MEAT these days. That's so weird... I used to get really sick if I ate anything beyond a little bite of chicken. Now I can eat low fat... anything meat... I think it's because I've strengthened my muscles and my metabolism is faster or something. I'm just speculating, but whatever. I CAN EAT BURGERS!!! YEOW!

Haha it's definitely a confidence booster to know that you're doing something to make yourself look and feel better. I dunno why I didn't do this sooner! I'll admit though, there are certain ones that I feel better going to than others. The Provo one is fun and all- like there are a lot of fun people there and stuff and lots of girls to feel comfortable around, but it's always so crowded! Bleh. I can never find an open machine over there. Yet I don't feel like such a little baby over there because there are other girls over there working- and mostly girls I should say. But then again, the Orem one is one that you NEVER have to fight for a machine, and there's a pool and a huge, open gym and stuff. But then again, there are so many macho guys using the machines and the weights that sometimes I feel like a complete idiot going around and trying to do my version of "lifting." Haha I always look like a fool around all those tools... Oh well!!! I like to switch it up. Jessica prefers the Provo one, and I usually prefer the Orem one, so we switch it up a lot :) It's fun having a gym buddy again!

I have to say too-- I freaking LOVE Jessica Frazier. She's the bestestest friend in the whole life :) Last night we were heading home from the Orem gym (yah I forced her to go to that one because the other one was too crowded for my taste-- she's a good sport :) ), and we just kept talking and talking and talking and laughing about nothing all the way home. Then we of course got to her parking lot and had more to talk about, so we literally sat there for an hour will my car running and talked about things on our minds. It's really good to know that someone understands you, you know? It's funny how life experiences are paralleled with people you are really close to; she and I go through a lot of the same things at around the same time- it's been like that for YEARS. I can recall uncanny coincidences like the one we were discussing last night way back in our sophomore year of high school. We're definitely on the same brainwave.

It's the most amazing feeling to know that you are loved so much by people. It changes your perspective on things. I love having my Jessica there all the time, no matter what goes on in my life. Even in times where we've been separated by distances or simply by the craziness of daily life,  she's there for me and I'm there for her. It's like those times when we were apart didn't even make a difference- we just picked up where we left off :) That's what a best friend is! I love it! I LOVE HER!

Well... this has been a really scattered entry about pretty much nothing... Soooooo... bye!
