When youre having fun....(: (:

Hello world!!! (: 
 Wow...it's been forever and a day since my last update. and now there is so much to catch up on. Basically time flies when you're having fun (: There has been so much going on in my fantastic little life lately. Some trips, some aha moments, lots of funny moments, and lots and lots of world in my eyes moments. (: 

You know, I really can't get over how fun life is. Life is just great! (: There's always so much to do, so much to learn, and lots and lots of stuff to enjoy!!! 
My life has basically has been sucked in by ROC. If its not ROC, its family,church,friends(:

So lets catch you up shall we? (: 
The ROC home show is April 8&9 so we've just been practicing and working for that as well as our two week tour in Texas (: (: . Still going strong, hanging out, and doing all the crazy stuff we do (: Today we also sang as a choir in a rehab center for trouble youth as part of their sacrament program. After, we got to stay for young women and got to meet some very beautiful girls (:

For spring break I went with my roommie and a couple of friends to Moab!! Hiking was deff a little tough but so so so so worth it (: It really was a blessing and sooooo cool to be able to see such beautiful views!! 
 



 


Finally, the most recent event in my life (: Festival of Colors. AHHH!! Such an awesome event in my little life! Where I learned how to crowd surf...and happened to fall too! (: he he he! 
So....moral of the story is. Life is good (: I've been having fun, maybe too much fun, and yet I keep learning new things in everything I do. I love living life to the fullest with the purpose of learning something while I'm having fun! (: 
 
I'll do better blogging I promise (: I just get carried away making stories for my blogg haha (:

This whole cooking thing...

Starvation...My B.F.F.F.
I spend every single day with it.
Morning, night, afternoon, noon. We are tight! haha (:

Okay, I'm not annorexic I love love love love love food too much I'm just one of those persons who forgets to eat. Many people have asked how that's possible? and although I'd love to come up with a great answer that's not what this blogg is about so I'm off the hook (: haaha

I'd have to say that probably 20% of the reasons why I forget to eat is because I dont want to make myself anything TO eat haha so I just suck it up (: which is not good and blah blah blah.

Today though!!! Starvation got the best of me...I felt like I could eat the entire kitchen! So I got down to some cooking. I made pasta and attempted to heat up some chicken nuggets.

I made those chicken nuggets the way I was supposed to! I read the instructions, and it said 6 1/2 minutes...So I did that...and then...it happened. (:



hehe (: Can you say over cooked? needless to say i did NOT have chicken nuggets for dinner, because although the rest look good and toasty they were hard as a rock.

This whole cooking thing is just not my thing...I want to be a good cook, and make dinner for my husband and kids one day but if lil incidents like these keep happening....marriage is just not an option ahaha for the sake of those little spirits haahahahah (: Maybe starvation beats catching my appartment on fire...juuust maybe.

Shout out to all the Nice Guys (:

"all guys are the same"
"guys are Jerks"
"boys are stupid"
"Boys will be boys"

Alllllll things that I too am guilty of saying...and believe me there are more where those lil quotes came from but I'll spare myself the time and boys the pain(:

To excusse myself and many other girls out there, I must say that the times I've said any of the quotes above have been because I had a reason...Usually some jerky, stupid boy has been behind such nasty sentences....buttttttt

Today I write to let the world know that NICE GUYS DO EXIST!!!!!

I have been so blessed these past few months because I have met nice guy, after nice guy, after nice guy. It's been so amazing!!! Every single guy in ROC  is super nice, they listen to us, laugh with us and not at us, go out of their way for us its just great (: Its so fun to have super nice guys around because it makes things so much more chill and so much more ....well....NICE!! (:

However, I must give a shout out to the nicest guys I have had a chance to be around lately.

(: The boys across the hall...

I have the nicest neighbors across the hall ever! Despite what I had heard before, One day I decided to just give them a shot and they have turned out to be the nicest guys ever!!

here is a little example of how nice they are:

Yesterday, I came home after two shows and the gym. I was tired, sleepy, and had a headache. Only to find out that i had been locked out of my appartment..boo ): I didnt know what to do So I knocked across the hall...and I wasnt greeted by a super nice guy (but we'll skip that detail) after sitting on the couch depressed at my luck. Sean showed up (: I told him I had been locked out and that I felt horrible for bumming in but he said
"good, now you can help me make dinner" 
So he began cooking while I watched....
Then Lindsey woke up and he too was super nice..he began telling me random crazy stories
(if you know Lindsey you get what kind of crazy stories he tells hehe)
After Sean finished making dinner, he fed me and then  gave me MangoPeach apple sauce for dessert!
The Byron showed up and we all just chatted and had fun (:
Later, they asked me what I wanted to do. I said a movie would be fun...but not an R rated movie.
They were supe nice about it (: No pressure and they even let me pick the movie!!!
It was a scary one.../: but they were super chill...I even had to go across the hall because my roomate came to open the door and they paused the movie for me (:

After the movie I came home, and began thinking about all the nice guys that are out there...and I decided to take the "all guys are the same" sentence out of my vocabulary!!!
Guys are pretty nice(: and I'm so blessed to be able to meet some.

In the past week I've seen so many nice guys be nice and it just makes me so happy!!! So here is a shout out to all the nice guys I know (:

But especially Sean, Byron, Lindsey, and Matt (because we watched your movie (; ) The list would be endless if I sat here. Moral of the story is, guys are so much better when they're nice...so guys keep up the good work because we DO appreciate ya'll (:


YAY FOR NICE GUYS!!!!

I killed my roommate!!

Ready for a funny story? (: 

My First Roomate: 

My first roommate was a very interesting character. She was 25 with a lot a lot more of experience than I. She had gone through some stuff that made it difficult for me to fall asleep at night without imagining myself waking up dead the next morning...haah okay maybe that's a little too much. 

However, I will not speak to you about her life only about what made me become a killer. 

You see, I love sleeping. It's what I do. Really, when I'm bored I sleep because its so much fun (: The best part about sleeping and being out of High School though, is being able to sleep in past 8 (: woooo!!! Well, with my roommate that wasn't an option. She had a little buddy called "the stupid alarm clock" which was one of those hotel black alarm clocks the ones that sound SUPER LOUD!!! and it wasnt the fact that she had a SUPER LOUD alarm clock that made me go nuts....it was the fact that she took sleeping pills, and put headphones in her ear before she went to bed so "the stupid alarm clock" would not go off for up to an hour and 1/2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The roommates beside us began to hear it in the mornings and they would bang on the wall begging for her to shut it up but she wouldn't hear us!! 

Well, we've come to the conclusion that I don't like to argue. I avoid arguing because I make people feel horrible after I'm done arguing so I just avoid those moments. Anyway, since "the stupid alarm clock" wasnt letting me sleep I would sleep in the living room...this has gone on for about two months, so I'd find ways to just not sleep at home, or in my room.I was nice to her and considerate of her, i didnt want to be rude to her.. But finally monday night it got to be too much for everyone so we called her in for a "come to Jesus meeting" where we apologized for being rude to her if she felt like we had...and to tell her that the alarm clock was driving us insaine. She agreed to fixing the problem and we all ended on a good note. We all were soo nice I was proud of us (: 

Yesterday I came home from practice...TO AN EMPTY ROOM!!!! 

She left....

So I can now tell you I killed my roommate....with kindness (:

Finances...

Ok....time to vent!!

Finances!!! Garrrr I totally needed to move out I've mentioned it before but I just got over a huge reality check. The bank called me a few minutes ago to let me know about a new bank account. I went for it because it sounds like a good deal but it's just weird to think that I made such a huge money decision on my own.

Right after talking to him, I realized I need to pay bills!!! AHHH!! phone, rent, groceries, vacations blahhh!!

Which brings me to some big decisions....I need to work extra hours, but I need to figure out school, plus make time for ROC, I want to audition for a musical, and I want to take singing lessons, I also want to focus more in church, and I want to have time to date and time to be with friends ahhhhhh!!!!

So...i've decided I need to sit back and write down what my priorities out and what I really want in life....


bleh...off to my room I go to figure out finances, and life....poo.

Why cant I go back to 5? Where you got pushed around in strollers, took a nap, and cried to get whatever you wanted.

L.O.V.E.

L.O.V.E.

Well, today is that day, when people who have someone get all corny and cheesy and those who don't, become to "cool" for today. hahaah (:

Yesterday, I had the oportunity to teach a class about love to a group of Young Single Adults. hahah I know right? I got to teach about love. I based it off a talk by Elder Robbins which basically is AMAZING. Anyhow, as a teacher on the "LOVE" subject I got to listen to a lot of different opinions as to what people think love is.

I personally don't believe there is a RIGHT answer as to what love is because for everyone it's different. A couple of weeks ago I was talking to a friend about how I really didn't think love was real but after reading this talk and thinking deeply as well as praying I gained a testimony of it (:

Love is real, just because you don't have someone right now or the person you have is stupid, not here, not romantic, weird, complicated..that doesn't mean love isnt real maybe you still need to find yourself the right one (:

We all came to a conclusion though that you need to find someone who makes you want to be better (: and I can honestly tell you it's possible (; there are a lot of people out there who are worth it...but we must go through those rough ones in order to be molded to meet the Right one (: we must become the right ones in order to find the right one (:

A girl said "If I want an honest boy I have to work to be honest myself" and I couldn't agree more (:

In this talk I found the meaning I want love to have for ME (: and I quote.

" The love of which the Lord speaks is not only physical attraction, but also faith, confidence, understanding, and partnership. It is devotion and companionship, parenthood, common ideals and standards. It is cleanliness of life and sacrifice and unselfishness. This kind of love never tires nor wanes. It lives on through sickness and sorrow, through prosperity and privation, through accomplishment and disappointment, through time and eternity” (The Teachings of Spencer W. Kimball, 1982, 248)."
Now, to make this post a little more corny I want to give a shout out to couples that have been an example to me and give me a testimony that love is real (: 


Mr.&Mrs. Burton (:
Mr&&Mrs Griffin.
Mr&Mrs. Ewell
Mr&Mrs Tichenor(: (:

Mr&Mrs Carranza
Mr.&Mrs Talnonia



You see? It's real...(:
There really are good, cute, handsome, worth it boys out there (: believe me (;

HAPPY VALENTINES EVERYONEE!!!!!!! (: (: woooooo!!!!!

Things that make my heart happy (:

Hmmm, I think I've come up with a theme for my life.
Be where You need to be when you need to be there...whatever it takes! (:

Since graduation life has been kind of blaaah...
It's true, I haven't gone back to school and that is a HUGE reason of why but there are a lot of little details that make that not so much of an option for me at the moment. So, here I've been...
Trying to find a way to feel like I have a purpose again.

There were mornings when I'd wake up and know that other than school there was somewhere I needed to be.

R.O.C. (:

R.O.C. is a dance group that represents different cultures and goes around sharing our testimonies through dance and singing. We do firesides on sundays and perform during the week.

I've missed dancing so much its kind of sick. I've known ROC is where I've needed to be but I kept putting it off due to some small details. Finally, I decided to find a way for something that I love...dancing.

I am now part of ROC and it's the best thing ever (: the feeling I get when I wake up in the morning and think, "i have practice today" is just too much to handle. AAHHH (: Practice has been a little sad and stressful because Tour is in two weeks and I have about 6 months of coreography to catch up on but finally I have something to work for and something to look forward to (: (:

The best part out of the whole thing is...I get to dance again! (: and THAT itself is enought. When I dance it just feels like i need absolutely NOTHING (: Which now, dancing has taken a whole new level because I'm learning how to dance and share my testimony through it at the same time!!!

To think I almost let go of that opportunity for small detailss....

No more of that...

From now on, i'll be where I need to be when I need to be there...whatever it takes (:
