Easy A- my FAVORITE MOVIE.

Easy A this is the funniest and best movie EVERRRRRrrrrrr. Every quote gets me. Everytime. You know it's bad when, you can watch it twice in a row and then want to watch the commentary. That is LOVE for a movie. And how do I LOVE this movie.

"Oh, happy day, Mama! Oh, I thought I was gonna have to spend my dowry on booze and pills to numb the loneliness. A gentleman caller, hurray!"

Call Me Maybe?!

BB showed me this music video a couple months ago,
but this song is getting big now.
And it's kinda catchy. Ashley Tisdale bugs in this music video.
But try and see how many Disney Stars you see?
Call Me Maybe?!

A-Mountain

Mondays are my long day. I am on campus from 9 am until about 8 pm. I don't have time to go home between classes, but I have a hour here and there to do things. During my hour and a half break, I decided to go for a run. I planned ahead andbrought all the things I needed. When I run I let my legs take me where ever they decide to take me. Today my legs took me to A mountain.

Basically, running this little hill made me miss my routes in Utah. I miss running up and around Temple Hill, and having the option of going higher if I wanted. I miss knowing exactly how long it takes me to run a route. I miss the back roads and the trials that follow the river. Basically I miss the hills and the green, trees, and flowers. Especially right now when Spring is beginning to heat things up again.

Temple hill. My all time fave.
Shopko and the dollar theater… so many options.
I could go to University Mall. Or make short cuts by Carriage Cove...


The flat straight run to the Shops at the Riverwoods, Tuscanos, and Happy Sumo.
I could return or up the hill and go thru the houses and end up by Helamen.


Song of the day. RULES Jayme Dee

Rules by Jayme Dee on Grooveshark

Back to SKOOL, Back to skool, to prove to Dad that I'm no Fool.

Spring break was good to me. I enjoyed the break. I don't enjoy trying to get back into the groove, after a nice week of laziness. It is now CRUNCH TIME until the end of the semester.
BRING IT ON.

Monday- March 26: Quote of the day

Quote of the day 3/26/12:
"No one is born with admirable character. It is built every day by careful attention and effort."

Timing

Life is all about timing.
I've been wondering lately certain things, like why my older sister still suffers from epilepsy. It's not fair.
I talked to my Momma this morning and she said it's all about timing. She told me when my parents bought their first house, the plan was to only live there for 7 years. After about 6 years my Mom would look at houses and a few times we almost bought another one, but it wasn't the right timing. After 20 years in my childhood home, a lady knocked on our front door and said, "I want to buy your house." It was finally the Lord's timing. It became a blessing for us and for the grandma of the triplets across the street.
My Mom said, she could have manipulated things. Got her way and we could have moved. But we would have been disappointed because the Lord had something better in store which was our house on the lake.
She gave a few more examples like how my Uncle Jason and Aunt Laura and babes moved to New Zealand recently. How easy it was, on the day they were moving the furniture out they rented out their house. Basically when it's the Lord will and timing its easy and smooth. Everything works out.

What it comes down to, is patience is not my strong suit. It just isn't, I want things my way, right now. And that is not how things are, obviously. Far from it, I have to be patient for the things I dream about. Just like how Bec has be to patient alittle longer.
Lord's timing isn't always our timing, because His will isn't always our will.

Puppy dreams

So I'm sitting here with my buddy, my pal, my girl, my baby,
Lili-monster.
One of my favorite things she does is dream.
She does alittle bark and runs in place for a few seconds.
Adorable.
Sweet dreams baby girl.

Also adorable is this puppy. Not as cute as mine, because well this dog isn't mine.
But cute nonetheless.

What happens when I'm not home.

What happens when I'm not home….
Oh hello, I'm Lilly, a lonely puppy but happy sleeping on my spot on Rachel's soft soft bed.
-I'm BB, I like to jump on Rachel's bed and steal her computer ALWAYS.

Moves to BB's Room-
Lilly: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
BB: YEAHHHHHHHHHH! I like to torture my dog!
Lilly: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

BB: I'm really excited to see the Hunger Games today! YEEE.
Lilly: Yawn.

Rachel gets home…
Lilly: Momma, I missed you kiss kiss kiss.
BB: Smother. Why doesn't she like to cuddle??
Rachel: ( : kisses. No idea BB. No idea.
The end.

Hunger Games was epic. I've seen it twice. That is all.

Autumn Elizabeth Shields

I have a new beautiful baby cousin.
Sweet Autumn was born on March 15, 2012
in New Zealand.


Sweet babers looks just like her Momma and Mr. Meems.

More volleyball.


So what's going on here is I'm doing my approach to the hardest slide I have ever hit.

BAM!

Slides are my speciality.

Day two of Vegas did not go according to plan.
It was single elimination.
We played UCLA first.
We fell apart. Took them to three. But ended up losing.
Ending the tournament early.
A total bummer.
Over all we all played well.
Words can not describe how happy I am that I'm a starter!

We also made it home safe and sound.
Driving thru snow, hail, and rain.
It's spring break there should be sun shine.
Where is this cold front coming from?

Vegas Tourney Day #1

I love VOLLEYBALL.
I had so much fun today.
Possibly the best game of my career.
I have never hit so hard or had as many solid blocks
It was so unbelievably fun.
Pictures to come.
I hope tomorrow goes well.
I'm so happy to be getting playing time!
And to be playing so WELL.
This is AMAZING!

vegas road trip...

Hoops jumped thru.

More hoops.
But then VOLLEYBALL.
Makes it all worth all the frustration!

Sniffy


Meet Sniffy.
He's my virtual rat.
I'm trying to train him to roll.
I've been reinforcing the "head tuck" above for about 45 mins.
It's taking a very long time… and he's still not attempting to roll.
So I may quite trying to do extra credit and
actually study for my short answer test.
Sniffy, you are the closest thing to a real rat
that I will ever have.
And you're not a very obedient pet.
So…………….
YEAH……………….
I'll gonna stick with my disobedient dog.
It's been real.
(Bound chest twice with fist.)

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG!


OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG
PLL gave me the chills.
SOOOOO GOOD!
Next week we finally find out who A is.
Also, Aria was wearing the slip I bought recently.
Who knew?
PLL shops at Urban Outfitters.
I am stylin and didn't even know it!
I'm not sure I would ever where it like that.
It is also 10 inches longer on her.
Because she is 10 inches shorter.

BUT OMG OMG OMG OMG.
AHHHHHHHHHHHH.
I'm so excited!!!

Lovely Sunday












I had a lovely day. I'm really proud of myself.




I MADE MEAT!




I now know that I can make boy food!





I also made bacon. Which was delicious.




I could marry bacon,




that's how much I love it.




Much like the Jack in the box commercial.









Also, I'm quite happy because




I got asked to go to Nationals




with my volleyball team.




I guess it really does mean I'm on the




A Team. WHAT?!

The song that has been on repeat in my head
and my computer for days.

Saturday.
It's been a long crazy day.
Volunteered all day.
Right when the back room got organized.
A donation tornado hit.
3 hours later that room was more organized than chaos.
Success!
ASU Women's Volleyball Sand Tournament.
Was outside for an hour and burned my nose.
Fell in love with puppy golden retrievers.
Pictures with Jordan.
A blast.
Jordan made my job as a photography easy,
because she is gorgeous.
Made bagel pizza.
Easiest meal ever!
Got to Walgreen's pharmacy right before it closed.
: )
Fry's.
Bought food for dinner tomorrow.
Got hit on by the cashier,
Apparently we went to high-school together.
And he remembered my "pretty face"
Can't say that has ever happened to me in a grocery store before
Ostrich Festival.
Birds, fried food, junk, hoodlums, dust, lights, and metal.

Tomorrow I have a boat load of homework
that I really
really
REALLY
don't want to do.
But I will.
<3
Night world.

A- Team?

Coach pulled me aside at the end of practice.
He told me he like where my playing was at.
That I should expect a lot of playing time in Vegas.
Only one team is registered to play.
I think that means I moved up to the A-team.
Right on!


I also just totally got dissed by my dog.
I didn't rub her belly very long because I was typing.
So she jumped off the bed and is going to sleep on the floor.
Fine, sassy face, don't come crying to me in the middle of the night to let you back up to the soft pillows.

District 7


I guess I'm a logger? D-12 is where it's at,
but District 7 will do; I like flannel.

Liam Hemsworth.

BB came home today.
I picked her up from the airport.
And we got to see this piece of eye candy.
He is really tall.
And he is really the kind of beautiful that makes you
stop and stare.

So the Scottsdale Mall was set up and every one who was there 12 hours early had special wrist bands on.. Well we are smarter than everyone and went upstairs. Went in the blind spot of the security guard, jumped over the barrier and acted like we owned the place. Then we made our way over to a front on view. Got some pictures and got out before any one was the wiser. And it was hard to hear Liam's adorable accent, so it was cool that we cut out. He also looked annoyed that he had to be there. His body language said that so: slouching, looking down, and not looking anyone in the eye. And right after we got ourselves 5 Guys burgers we saw all the annoying little snobby rich girls leaving. So this little Q&A with some of the cast of Hunger Games didn't last more than 30 mins.

I did manage to catch him picking his nose though. ( :
Even the most beautiful of people pick in public.
I would also be ok if we got married and had awesome tall volleyball playing babies.
<3
(There are more pictures, but BB has them on her phone…
so more later I guess)

Kony 2012

KONY 2012 from INVISIBLE CHILDREN on Vimeo.

How can you not want to help the Invisible Children?

This is horrible. I recently watched a movie called The Whistle Blower, with a similar situation. A movie on human trafficing. How is it, the UN and other good people do nothing? When people are being kid napped, to become sex slaves and killers?

Make a difference in the smallest way.

Make Kony Famous. - not to celebrate Kony, but to make his crimes come to life.

dreamed

Whenever I talk to my Mom, she always encourages me. These conversations are few and far between, but she tells me that things will be better than I had ever dreamed it would be.
I think one of the reasons why I could never stop loving my Mom is because she is the only person who cares about the things that I care about. And I don't know what it is about my Mom, but I believe everything she says.
And this time, I really hope she is right.
I really hope it will be better than I could have dreamed.

And sometimes I just really miss her.
No one can comfort the way Momma can.

secrets

Secret to enjoying now.
When life gives you situations you can't control.
Hand it over to the Lord,
Trust Him to untangle it all.
Enjoy now.
Enjoy the people around you.
Positivity is always attractive.
And watch as the blessings keep flowing.

Another secret:
common knowledge actually.
You can't change others.
You can only change yourself.

Grrrrr….

Home alone!
It was fun, for like 15 mins.
Now I would really like BB to come back home.
Dad, BB, and MeeeKYYYLAAA
went to DC without me.
I'm home alone with the pooch.
Means, I can slide down the hall way in
my socks and underpants
Blasting the music as loud as it can go on BB's stereo.
Awesome.
But I'm bored already and I miss my seester.
So I better get a really great present for holding down the fort.
I was even a nice sister and was brave and went into BB's room.
After jumping over the 12 mountains of clothes, dirty and clean.
I was the bed making fairy and made her bed.
I found a pair of shorts and a pair of underwear at the bottom of her bed. It made me laugh hard. But at the same time, if there are 12 mole hills and a tornado room, there would be random clothes at the bottom of the bed.
Just made me miss her, because she is funny.

Also,
It's funny how NONE of my plans ever work out.
I thought I would walk in May and finish up with
all my credits in summer school.
Graduation plan was set!
Bummer news, I can't find the 2 classes I need to take
to finish my schooling "/
I probably should have set my schedule before I paid the graduation application fee. Darn it.
So I'm gonna be here another semester.
Which I guess is ok?
My plans for afterward were unstable anyways.
So what's the rush??
I just really wanted to be done.

So I'm on Plan… S of my life.
Good things there are 26 letters in the alphabet to make
Plans A-Z.
Life is not turning out anywhere near what I thought it would be.
Grrrr….. school is over-rated.
