The road to hell is paved with good intentions

So I learned that there are three kinds of people

1. the procrastinator
2. the perfectionist
3. the game person

I am totally number 3!

It is horrible because in my school book it talked about how if you are constantly planning, and having a plan you have no time to actually life...ahh!!! I want to live!

It's nice to say that we've played in the dirt


Motivation is the ignition for success. Self management is the fuel that will keep you going on the long ride to your destination.

Until you see yourself as great, no one Will ever see you as great!

Life will always test you for what you say you want.

If you're not willing to do the work, stop dreaming the dream.

The sky can't be the limit when there are footprints on the moon.

Feelings are a result of the way you think.

The present is just a pleasant interruption to the past.

It is spiritual serendipity.

I enjoy them when they're around, but I don't miss them when they're gone


I really can't handle crying babies. I don't know what it is, but it just makes me cringe!!! I mean babies are fun, and mostly cute, but when they cry I am just like ew!!! Go away!!!!!! I don't know why....just the way it is...sorry! And it's not so much the crying, it's the incecent screaming! Be quiet!

For that matter, I can't handle crying in any form...I just like everyone happy all the time. When people cry I really don't know what to do, or how to handle them. I just want to make everything better!

She skates where the ice thins


I LOVE LOVE LOVE driving by myself, blasting the heat and the tunes!!!! It's my fav!

I can have it as hot as I want, and the music as loud as I want without anyone complaining!!! YAY!!!!!

It takes all kinds to fill the freeway!






Do you ever have people that you are really close with and tell each other everything? I love that, but sometimes it feels like I attract people who are better talkers then listeners. That bugs sooooo badly! I mean I listen to them tell me everything. Every little detail, and it's not that I mind. I don't, but when it comes time for me to need them, and talk to them, they space, don't listen, and turn off. It really bugs me!!!

I have a lot of friends like that. Well not a lot, but a few. It really bugs me! I sit there and listen, even when I don't want to, then I try to tell them something that's bugging me, and it just goes in one ear and out the other like they don't even care!

For some reason I have this gift of listening. I do it when I don't even want to. It just happens. I try not to, I am doing 4 things at once, and I still hear every word, and remember it. It's actually pretty cool, but at the same time...sometimes I just want to space!!! I just want to give them a dose of their own medicine. UGH! BUT morale of the story! LISTEN when I'm talking to you!!! Nothing bugs me more than a bad listener!!!!
THANKS CYNTHIA AND ELLEN FOR ALWAYS LISTENING!! I LOVE YOU!

It kind of hurts when the words you say turn themselves into blades


Oh boy to I HATE the undependable!!! It is soo irritating to me! There is this boy. And he always makes plans with me, and it will be like oh let's do something this day, at this time. Or just this night. And then he never calls, but he'll send me a text like 2 hours later and is like ok let's do something. Are you ready? And I of course being the one with NO self control just says yes! Even though I am so annoyed because I have been waiting all night, and haven't heard a word!

UGH UGH UGH! It's so frustrating! Maybe it's just the way I am. I like to have things planned out to at T, but when people don't allow me to plan things, and just let things happen on the fly, it bugs me because I could have done something really fun and exciting instead of just sitting around, not really doing anything, WAITING! I hate waiting!!!!

I mean how hard is it to send a little text saying I'd love to be with you right now, but I'm doing *insert activity* right now, but I'll be home in like 30 minutes. I'm sorry.

That is all I want! I mean things come up, commitments run late, but you can't just string people along!!! It's so thoughtless, and annoying!!! UGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! I'm so frustrated!!!

All that I want is to be able to count on someone, and feel taken care of. I love the feeling of knowing that someone's always got my back, and cares about me. That's all I want...SIMPLE! EASY! Make it happen world!

What a beautiful mess this is...

I FREAKING LOVE my friends! They are totally the best! I have been so lucky to find such great people! It's so nice when people come through for you when you really need it. I needed a model for school to be there all day, and let me show everything I've learned on their hair, and Sarah did it. She sat in my chair all day while I did little tests on her hair for my instructor. I love that girl to death.

When I needed a model quickly for a hair show, Greg volunteered, and even offered to eat green jello for me! haha. It's just so nice. I seriously LOVE going back to Salt Lake and having everyone sooo excited to see me. The great thing is, I'm definitely excited to see them as well. I look forward to Salt Lake friends sooo much! I just LOVE Salt Lake so much! Just driving into the valley makes my heart feel happy!!! :) It seriously is so beautiful! There is ALWAYS something to do, somewhere to go, a group to pull together and make things happen with. I just love it! PLUS it's so cosmopolitan! I love the metro feel! Provo just seems like a prison sometimes. Like you are constantly being watched, and under someones wing...who knows who that someone even is.

Salt Lake is just amazing. Even more amazing then the wonderment of the city itself are the contents...meaning people!!! I LOVE you guys soooo much! Those were probably the best 2 years of my life! I made the best friends, and I appreciate it so much!!! Life is wonderful! I LOVE YOU ALL! *HUG*
Good thing Provo isn't too far away from Salt Lake! I would probably die!!!!

To the beat of our noisy hearts

I really hate this whole not having a computer thing!!! I really need to talk about the Kelly and Reba concert! It seems like such old news now, but I LOVED it!!! It was soooo much fun!!! Elyse, Tim, and I went! It was amazing! Tim handled all of the Reba songs, and I did the Kelly songs, and between the 2 of us, we sang every song right along with them! It was amazing!!! SOOOO great!!! :)

You've been living your whole life in a seatbelt. Time to unclick!

Life in Provo has not come as easily as I had hoped it would. Somehow I just assumed that it would fall into my lap, and people would be lining up the door to be friends with me because my wonderful friends in Salt Lake boosted me so high that it seemed like I was a wonderful person! Well not that I'm not, but it's like people here don't know that. I'm hiding under some sort of invisible rock. Someone lift the rock!!! PLEASE!!!

Anyway things were really hard the first few weeks. It just seems so cliquey here! Like everyone is nice, sure, but they don't let you in. They just say hi to you in the hallways. It's all a show. I want real friends who I can call up just to talk, or vent. I want people in my life who want to come have game nights at the drop of a hat. I just love the feeling of knowing that people love you.

It is a little ridiculous that since I moved down here I haven't gone more than 2 weeks without coming to Salt Lake for one reason or another. haha. But I just want what I had. I guess it's true that the grass is greener on the other side of the fence.

On that note, I am sooo grateful for Breanna! Since we became friends we have had so much fun, and she has helped me to find my element, and become the person I was in Salt Lake. I love it!!! And I guess I was just thinking everything would happen as soon as I moved in, Happy Valley and all, but Spince brought up a good point. It took me 2 years to have what I had in Salt Lake. He said I need to give it at least 8 months.

It sucks picking up and starting over again, but it is good. It helps you learn. And it's what I convinced myself I wanted. I wanted to make new friends and have new adventures. I just know that I have to and will always make new friends, but keep the old, for one is silver and the other gold. Haha corny I know! But people LOVE corn! haha!

It's like picking up trash in dresses


So I heard this commercial that went like this:

"If you smoke it might take your life, but if you don't you might beat your wife."

How ridiculous?!?! Are you kidding me? You might beat your wife?!??! WHAT??!?!?!??!?! AHHHH!!!

I woke up this morning with bitterness in my mouth


I know I rant about this every year, but I really don't like snow!!! I feel that it is so useless. Every good thing that comes from it can be gained from rain as well, and faster! Really now, snow is wet, messy, dangerous, gets muddy and gross, covers things, impairs drivers, makes it so you can't see the lines when driving and parking. It's just really annoying!!! UGH! Snow is so annoying!

The air is stale with things unsaid


Oh how I love Halloween! It's so grand! This year turned out pretty fun! We all dressed up at school, and had a little party. I was Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz. :) I was so excited! My hair was so cute, it was in a little french braids, then the ends were curled. So cute! We basically just sat around and got ready for the first 2 hours of school. Then student council started setting up, and I decided I didn't want to set up, and I officially didn't want to be on student council anymore. I felt bad and a bit guilty for not helping, but it was just something I had to do for myself. I have no time, and so much stress as it is, I don't need to pile anymore on myself. Plus it's not at all like student council should be where we vote on ideas, and do things as a team, so that really turned me off about it.

But the day turned out so fun, I went to Kneeders with Alex, Chynna, and Drew. It was so great! It's a lot like Paradise Bakery in Salt Lake, and I really miss that place, so it was nice. :) Then we came back to school, and played charades, I must admit it got a little boring after the first 20 min, but it was fun, then had costume contests, and a hot dog eating contest, then scary movies. It was pretty fun! :) I watched Prom Night. It was pretty messed up! All of the main character's close friends and family members died, it was really horrible!!!

After school Brea and I went to this Dreaded Grove in Pleseant Grove with her roommates, and their friend, who was quite cute and I must say we were flirting. :) It was fun! It's always nice to have a boy to hold onto when you get scared and freak out, and a guy with a chain saw is chasing you!

Then we rushed home so I could be there when Tim and his friend Andrew came over. We were planning on going to this castle place by the Mental Hospital to watch Sweeney Todd, but it was an outdoor thing, and it was raining, so we ended up just going to Elyse's to watch the movie. It was fun, I ended up playing with Elyse and Tim's hair the whole movie. Then we went back to Tim's car, and it wasn't there!!!! We all gasped and he called the tow company. They had it. His car was towed, and he had to pay $150 to get it back!!!! Seriously why is Provo so retarded??? Why is there NO where to park? I really don't understand.

It was a pretty relaxed, but fun halloween. :)

There are always so many parties, and fun activities to do on Halloween, it's so fun! I love seeing everyone's costumes, that's probably my favorite part. I saw some really good costumes this year! I was impressed. The only down side to halloween is that some girls take it as an excuse to look slutty and have a reason. It's so annoying!!! But once you get past that there are always tons of festivitites, and treats, loaded with friends, it's just a great holiday! I love it!

Here are some of the amazing, great, cute costumes i saw this year:
*Barbie and Ken, Barbie had ripped Ken's heart out and had it in her purse-Julie and husband
*Edward scissor hands-Keli
*The Joker (Heath Ledger style)-Violet
*Superheros-Becca and Brea
*Rainbow Brite-Jayce
*Harry Potter-Jessie
*Twister board-Alyssa
*Pebbles-Erika
*Halloween/scared-Chynna
*Raggity Ann-Brea's roommate
*A cute pirate-Emily
*A black pimp-Sunny..who is Asian!!! HAHAHAHAHA!
*Tinkerbell-Krista
*A Greek princess-Aubrey

Oh the joys of Halloween I love it!!!
