Update on my life

I posted only once in May, and now we're halfway through June, and this is my first post... I have a thing about not posting unless I have pictures, and I don't post pictures unless I edit them first.. So between not taking pictures and not editing the ones I DID take.. Let's just say I haven't posted. But since May, I have actually gotten a job! Unless of course I don't pass my background check... I sincerely hope I do haha But assuming that I do, I start New Employee Orientation at Kaiser Permanente on June 27th. I'm pretty excited. This is like a dream summer job, and I get to find out whether I really do like pharmacy or not :) I'm REALLY hoping that I do like it haha
Besides that, I have been hanging out a lot with friends I've made in the Singles ward, seeing as my best friend Nathan left on his mission to the UKRAINE a month ago. we've done lots of fun things, like go rafting, and today I'm going camping up in Frisco, so hopefully  I'll take a ton of pictures when I go. I got a calling, I am a ward missionary. Exciting, I know.
My Aunt Ashley moved out here this week from Georgia, and it's gonna be so much fun hanging out with her and her babies :)
Most exciting to me tho, is that I'm applying to go on a study abroad to Jerusalem in exactly one month. I am beyond excited. In my mind, I'm already in, but I haven't actually applied, so I don't really know anything, but I'm hoping for the best and *hopefully* I'll be in Jerusalem next January.

Dang..

So i definitely haven't updated for 2 weeks.. my bad. It's just that those two weeks consisted of the most crazy intense period of my life. I had studying for finals, finals, and then packing, WEDDING, WEDDING, packing, unpacking, loading, CLEANING, oh yah, and maybe some sleep in there somewhere... Finals sucked hardcore. I've never been so emotionally distraught in my life.. It was awful. But I managed to get decent grades in all my classes and keep my scholarship, and that's really all I care about, so it was all good.
It was so great to see two of my really good friends/roommates get married last weekend though. I LOVE weddings. My friend Kamie got married at the Oquirrh Mountain Temple, which is GORGEOUS. And then my friend Megan got married the next day in the Salt Lake Temple. Temple marriages make me happy :) At Megan's reception we were the one who decorated their car, and let's just say we had a LOT of fun ;)
Oh yah, one other little detail, I dyed my hair red. It was super red for about 2 days and then it faded into a light chestnutty/brown color. Not terrible for my first ever dye job lol.

roomies!

My new best friend Marie!

We do a good job decorating :)

Best thing ever!

Love you Megan!!!! 

And this is how we truly are... haha

Kamie's wedding.. I'm the odd one out haha

I'm so connected it's Ridiculous

So recently I've realized that I'm so connected to the internet it is ridiculous. I've recently gotten accounts on a few more sites, and it's RIDICULOUS.

• I have a blog, this one. Although i've been thinking of making another one, why? idk. because i can probably. That's the beauty of the internet. 
• I have a facebook. Old news, I've had it forever, but i'm addicted. 
• I have a pinterest. This is probably my favorite, because it just IS!!!!! It is so wonderful, you find things that you love on the internet, and you can save them in one place so you can find them again. No more searching through your history to find that one perfect picture/recipe, because you already saved it. SO MUCH FUN. 
• I have a stumbleupon. This is quite fun and a wonderful way to find tons of cool stuff on the internet. 
• I get several emails from various sites that i subscribe to almost everyday. My nerdy political side is going to come out, but I get Morning Jolt, The Goldberg File, IBD newsletter, and Make-It and Love-it. So great. 
• I have a  flickr. Mostly just to look at other people's pictures, but I've uploaded some of my own. 
• I have a youtube account, a vimeo, and a an animoto account. All of which are video uploaders. CRAZY. 
• Today I got a twitter. A TWIITER. I've been refusing to get a twitter forever, but I got one today. I'm still not sure how it works exactly, but I've tweeted? six times. It's a skill I happen to posses. 

Looking at this, I upload my life into so many different places. All over the internet, especially my blog and facebook, my personal written journal, my journal for jotting down spiritual things, letters that I write to people, and then just telling people about my life. and with all of that, no one really knows the real me, I don't tell any one of those things everything about me. All of them are just snippets of me. I carefully choose who and what I want to know specific things about me depending on who or what they are... I think lots of people would be surprised to know a lot of things about me, but they probably won't find out, because there's a reason they don't know.. lol. Anyways, if you want to know something just ask. I'll probably tell you ;) unless I don't want you to know.. haha 

At any rate, if you want to put together several of the pieces of the puzzle that is moi, here are the links to all of my public accounts, feel free to follow/subscribe/friend me  and maybe we'll find out more about each other along the way.

Fall Semester 2011

So I registered for classes tonight. It was the first time i actually had trouble getting up to 14 credits.. I didn't realize I didn't have enough until I looked at my total credits and realized i was about 3 short.. which is super frustrating when you're trying not to take too many classes so as not to die taking 3 chem classes in one semester. But I think I've got it all worked out, and let's just say, my body is gonna be FINE next semester haha
I'm taking:

• Organic Chemistry
• Chem 106 
• Chem 107-lab
• D&C part 1
• Food prep
• Ukranian (dance)
• Ballet
• Jazz
• Folk Dance team 
• Irish (maybe)

 costume for folk dance.. altho my foot looks way more retarded than i thought it was going to. yay for ISRAEL!

It's definitely gonna be an interesting semester. A lot of classes, but actually not a lot of credits.. I'm pretty excited about half my classes anyways.. ;) We'll see how Chem goes.. :P 

Dancing

So I've been doing a TON of dancing lately, so much FUN! and I figured I'd show some pictures/videos of what I've been doing. Mostly Mexican and Indian, cuz that's what I had pictures of. 

 ok, please don't make fun of that fact that I royally messed up in the first 10 seconds. SO embarrassing. especially since I've never messed up that bad before.. :P I'll include the bhangra video later. Stupid video uploaders...

Spring-a ling

Today is the FIRST DAY OF SPRING!!!!!!!!!!!!!! In case you can't, tell, i'm pretty excited. i love spring, and i'm just ready for NO MORE SNOW. it also means that school is almost over. just one more month!!!!!! 

Take a Deep Breath, and Relax

So this might possibly be the coolest site ever. When you're feeling stressed, just go to this website, and do nothing but sit with your eyes closed and relax for two minutes. Nothing bad happens, I promise. I was slightly afraid, waiting for a trick, but there is no trick, it's straight up legit. Try it.
