Homework Party anyone?

This weekend was kind of lame. My friend Jessica and I did homework both Friday and Saturday night. It was pathetic. We tried to make it less lame by renting a movie and making pina colada smoothies. Friday the movie we rented was night in rodathan or something like that. The movie looked good but we seriously were hooked on studying and not watching. Weird, I know! It must be finals time. Let me tell you of more excting things I did other than homework though.
Friday before our homework party we went over to the Fowler house.(fun house where like 8 guys live there) It was Ben's birthday so we brought him a present. Come to find out he was on date. We joined their date for a moment and then felt awkward. So we hung around the house with the other guys for a bit and then left for our better and cooler homework party.
Saturday afternoon we played kickball. It was a great spring day. I got a litte sun. It was wonderful. I love Saturdays like this one. Too bad I was worried about my paper the whole time and couldn't fully enjoy it. Don't worry in two weeks I am going to relax like no one has relaxed before. Well anyway the kickball didn't last long. Doug who decided he was going to play even though he is on crutches, decided to hit the ball with crutches. Then the ball pops! that was the end of that. Luckily Brady was smart and went to sports authority before and baseball and bat. So was played baseball after that. Then we flew kits. It was a great afternoon.
Sunday was probably the best of the weekend. I finished one of my papers. Now I have two big papers to do, two little papers, three presentations, 3 movies to watch and answer questions about, a test to study for, and probably something I am not aware of.
So after finishing the paper. I went to the fowler house for Ben and his brother Dan's joint birthday party. Met some people and socialized. It was great.

My New Favorite Quote!

“If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it. If you don't ask, the answer is always no. If you don't step forward, you're always in the same place.” Nora Roberts

This is my new favorite quote. I was talking to my friend Chris Englen today. He was telling I just need to ask Devin if he likes me. Also I need to tell Devin I like him. I believe he is somewhat right. But I am scared to tell. But none the less I love this quote and can apply to anyone.

Easter! Temple! Not A Lot of Working! Dancing! Back Row Buddies! Kites!

This Easter was so great. It was like a normal sunday, relaxing, napping, reading, etc. Just the way I like it. Last year on Easter I threw up at 2am and it wasn't fun. My parents were also out of town. This year they were in town and I didn't throw up. Yay for those too. My sister Lacy Hid our easter baskets. We also made these cute cupcakes. Pictures to Follow.




Last week I didn't have to work that much. One family was out of town. The other family was sick. It was nice to get somewhat caught up on school. I also went to the temple and did baptisms. It was so nice to go there and be in the lords house.




Jessica and I went dancing this week twice. Once on Tuesday and again on Wednesday. Both days it was free admission. Yay for that. Also Devin was there. I got to flirt a little. Hopefully I made some progress. I have been too scared to even flirt with him. In fear of loosing a friendship. Crazy I know! If you wanna know more dancing and him just let me know and I will give you more details.

and P.S. These are my buddies from Research Methods class. The other girl Brittany is not in the picture because she was absent. My buddies are fun in class!

and Friday I hung out with my friends Brady and Sam. I don't have pictures for this one. But we flew kites in the dark. We used glow in the dark sticks so we could see them. It was fun and random. We also doorbell ditched Sam's house, got ice cream, and some other random stuff I can't remember. It was an adventure.

Conference Dance, Girls Night, Conference, and thoughts.

On Friday my friends Josh, Aaron, Scott, Jessica and I went to the bi annual conference dance. I guess there have one of these every friday of conference weekend. I had never been and neither had my friends. We didn't know what to expect. We went with the knowledge of having to pay 10 freakin dollars to get in, three dance floors, hip hop, country, and Latin. We didn't know what kind of people would be there. Needless to say there was many types of people there. Slutty girls(even though it said modest dress only), pierced earings guys, and then then the ones I perfer. Clean and modest people. Amazing how you can tell someone by how they act, dress, and look. We tried to stay away from the hip hop floor because this is where most of the questionable people came from. I am pretty there was some that were drunk over there. Of course since this was a conference dance they didn't sell alcohol. So they must have come drunk. Also on the hip hop floor most people were grinding. Eww so gross!!! I met more people on the country side they seemed like decent guys. Yay for that. Plus I love country dancing. My friend Scott ran into a friend there. He introduced me to him. He was pretty cool. We have texted since then. After the dance we met some pretty cool guys. They wanted us to come and get food with them. We told them maybe another time. It was way fun to be with friends.
On saturday night Jessica and I went shopping, made pina colada smoothies and watched Never Been Kissed. What a great movie. It was fun to just to be with Jessica and no Guys. We love our guy friends but just girls is nice too.

Conference has been amazing so far. I really liked what President Monson said. He doesn't seem to be worried about the future and the fate the of the economy. Which gives me great hope. He said we need to turn our thoughts away from the troubles of the world and turn our hearts towards the blessings that come from being members of the church. Making Jesus the center of our lives will help us pull through whatever comes our way. His talk made me think as long as we keep the commandments and have faith it doesn't matter the state of the economy now or in the future. I am so glad I am a member of the church.

As you can tell from a few posts ago I like my friend. Let me recap on him. We have been friends for over three years now. We met at a Basketball game through mutual friends. After this game we decided to go to eat at The Pie. The Pie is a popular College hangout I suppose. I don't remember much about that night besides the face that I asked my friend Jamie if he was a good kid or not. She replied and said he was a great kid. He was in his last semester at weber and it my second semester at weber. Since then we have become great friends. He was the first guy to teach me how to country dance. I have to say I have never really had feelings for him until recently. Except for once. I had a crush on him for like a day. Then it ended. It was one those 18 year old, well I guess I was 19, crushes where I think I liked alot of guys for like a day or two. Recently I was talking to my friend Jamie before I even liked him. I told her man we need to find him a girl because he is a great guy. He is 29 and not married. Nothing wrong with that. Just he's a great person and he hasn't found his wife yet. Us girls have always said Devin is a great guy but we could never date him or like him. Yeah that kinda back fired for me. Yeah I really like him and have realized even more how great he is. He has really good qualities. It dawned on me he has qualitites that I want in a husband. Not saying I am going to marry him. How did I not realize this before though? Weird? Well now I like my friend. Still don't know what to do? I want to go for it. But I am not sure how. I don't want to make our friendship werid. The end!

Any suggestions let me know!
I am off to take a nap before the next and last session!
