BORED out of my MIND!

Yes, it is true, I'm very much BORED out of my MIND! Today was just your typical average boring day...


I woke up early, went to school, had sign language, history, math, and child development, had 3 hours of marching band (doing straight drill), and now I'm home... took an ACT practice test, did some math... or at least I got my math out to start, tried to do my Physics homework, and now I'm here... typing my boring day into a blog post. *sigh*



Last night was family night for the marching band! We performed our show twice and Hollie got to follow me around on the feild. It was so funny to see her run around and try to catch up to me while I played. She's such a cutie! :) {Thanks mom and dallin and hollie for coming to my show! It meant a lot seeing you up in the stands!!}




I'm selling Stove In A Can again! This will help me pay for marching band fees. They are $25.00 each and it's a super amazing deal! If you want one, please let me know! I get $15.00 of the $25.00 you give me. People in my band have paid off their whole California trip and even paid off all the band fees required this year.




My mom is gone picking up Sydnee at her new "job" (which is a different story for a different time), and Dallin and I are home! We were eating Taco Soup for dinner and when my mom left Dallin says: "I haven't eaten anything, so can I have some cereal?!" and I told him "No! But you can eat dinner!" And he said, "Ok!" So I filled him a bowl and gave it to him. "EW!" He said. "I don't like taco soup!" So he threw a fit and started crying. And this is what he said: "I DIDN'T EAT BREAKFAST OR LUNCH SO I'M STARVING!" And I said. "Ok, then eat dinner!" And of course, he screamed NO. :) :) :) Haha, what a funny kid. BUT! I told him that if he ate ten bites of his soup, I would let him have a small bowl of cereal, which he whined about for what seamed like FOREVER, but he finally gave in. And instead of only eating ten bites, he had about 20. And now he's chomping on his "small" bowl of cereal behind me, happy as can be! MAN! What a brother!




So I took the van to Costco (with my mom's Costco card which made me feel oh-so-very powerful!) to fill up the van with gas. I got there, did all the steps... and then when it came time to open the little thingy you put the gas nozzle in... I couldn't figure out how to open it! I sat there for at least five minutes trying to get the dumb lid to unscrew before I finally told Hollie to run over to the man behind us and ask him if he could come help me. And he did! :) He was very nice, but I felt very stupid! :) Haha, but he showed me how, then figured I didn't know how to do the rest, so he walked me through how to put gas in my car! :) It was funny. But he was a very nice old man and I thank him... because I probably would have drove home and had my mom go fill up the van instead of me! :)

IT FINALLY CAME!

It finally came in the mail!! My lisense finally decided to come! :) oh I'm so happy! It seems like it's been forever and now it's finally here, in my hands and looking as beautiful as ever! I drove Dallin to Blockbuster to return a movie and he told me that I am AWESOME! :) YES!!!!!!!

"Clean It Up!"

"Clean It Up!" .... daily words! I always hear them. Before I leave in the morning, "Clean It Up!". When I get home, "Clean It Up!". Before I run over to a friends house, "Clean It Up!". Before I eat dinner, "Clean It Up!"

So... after cleaning my room and seeing how beautifully clean and fresh it looks..... I have decided that I am going to set a goal to keep it clean! For a whole week! Putting away my clothes, making my bed, keeping my desk organized... let's just hope I can accomplsh it!

That way... when I hear the "Clean It Up!" WARNING, I'll be able to say, "I don't need to, I'm done!"

Yes, how so happy I will be! My room will be clean instead of messy, and instead of hearing, "Clean It Up!" 10 times daily, I'll hear it once!

Yay! :)

Catching Up :)

I feel like I haven’t posted anything in a long, long while! :) So... here I go! :) I’m catching up!



My Birthday was AMAZING and I’m so grateful for everyone that made it such an amazing day! My mom, dad, sisters, brother, and friends!... oh! and that lady that did my hair!!! she did a great job and I’m happy with the way it turned out! :) Thanks all! :)



School started... bleh... :) Haha. :) I’m glad to call myself a Junior and see all the little sophmores... except it’s the weirdest feeling to think that I was them last year, and that all the seniors and juniors were thinking that about me! :)



A lady named Katie came into talk to our Priests and Laurels in my stake this wednesday. She was in a car accident just a few years ago and found out that she was paralyzed. She talked about how instead of letting herself be miserable, and always wondering “why me?”, she decided to try new things and do things that made her happy. She was so inspiring and I’m so happy I got to hear what she had to say! :)
