2010

Dear 2010,
I can not classify you as "One of the best" years of my life.
But, I can classify you as "One of the most Important and Hardest" years of my Life.
You taught me about life consequences.
You taught me about being alone in the real world.
You taught me no matter what my family loves me.
You taught me to work hard.
You taught me to grow up.
You taught me to mature.
You let me test my wings.
You let me fail.
You let me learn.
You let me hurt
You let me heal.
You let me reflect.
You showed me tough love.
I have never been more humbled in my life, then by you 2010.
You were my wake up call from the real world.
I am now a year older.
though not even an inch taller.
And in this coming year I hope to make you proud 2010.
No matter how much I wanted you to be like 2009,
or how much I wanted you to skip forward to 2016.
I know see the purpose you served.

In 2011 I hope to:
Be more humble, kind and loyal
Regain a friend or two.
Make a friend or two.
Start at UVU or U of U.
Learn to be a teacher
Learn to take a better photo.
Speak out for what I believe in.

Happy New Years Everyone.

Happy Christmas Eve!

Today is a day of MUSIC
But unlike you "Traditional" people.
I'm not listening to Christmas music.
BUT! I am Listening to a Christmas CD:)
My good friend Ruth (http://rootypatooty-chapstick.blogspot.com/)
recorded her beautiful voice on a CD for my Christmas present:)
She is Amazing!
You can check out her music by going here=http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/pages/Ruthie-Von/172579272782370

My personal Favorite is her cover of "I'm good, I'm gone"

Bordem...YES. Cleaning my room...NO.

Kristopher and Amy visited tonight.

Amy talked with me about boys, Christmas, worries, pizza, weddings, etc.

Kristopher told be to hush so he could hear the ref's call....

Brothers!

But he is my only brother and I do love him:)

Just don't be talking about boys during his football game lol

P.S. I really enjoy having a sister:)

Amy is fully suportive of my HOT pink and orange colored wedding, dying my hair strange colors and is in agreement that Kristopher no longer gets his fun christmas present:)

Waiting.

So...I'm currently waiting for Brian to come.
He said he wanted to drop by between 1 and 2....
I'm not a patient person....
NO SIR!

So while waiting I:
Crocheted a scarf for a certain someone.
My scarf is only about half as long as it should be....
Christmas is in three days.
Oh dear... I may be in trouble:/
Where are magical elves when you need them?!?!?
Talked to Ella.
Ella is my cat.
I told her all my worries and woes.
She didn't seemed too worried
The again, she went to sleep while I ranted..
Not a good sign I think.
Listened to "T-in the Park"
"T-in the Park" is a musical festival held in Scotland.
The Killer's played there in 2009.
There is something magical about hearing a band live (or recorded live)
You can just feel the tremble of Brandon Flower's voice in your heart.
Or at least...
I can.
P.S. it is 1:51....
I am so not patient:(

Maybe

It's a "maybe" kind of day.

Songs to Listen to:

Maybe Tomorrow- Stereophonics

Maybe- Ingrid Michaelson

Walk Away (Maybe)- Good Charlotte

Friendship Food

I bought some T.G.I. Friday mozzarella sticks the other night from Winco.

I have decided Mozzarella sticks are the kind of food you eat with a friend.

It's not a solo food.

Solo food is:
chips

cold pizza

a glass of OJ.

Mozzarella sticks are defiantly at food to be

shared with a friend.

Song of the Day: Sea Green, See Blue- Jaymay

KamERON, Ruth-not-Ruthie and ME!

Last night Ruth, KamERON and I went to see Harry Potter 7.

We had the WHOLE theater to ourselves,

Which was good because Ruth is always loud at movies.

We always sit in the same order too.

Kam- Ruth-Kayla

I can't sit by Kam because he always smirks when I jump.

He also SHHH!'s me when I'm loud....

This makes NO sense what so ever since Ruth jumps even more then I do and Ruth is prone to yelling out her feelings at the movie scream in a volume you would deem appropriate for a football game.

My "loud" movie voice never gets louder then a whisper.

I guess there are perks to being Kam's girlfriend :/

Plus I enjoy sitting by Ruth because then we can be loud together.

Ruth is the first friend I've ever had who will sit in a theater and discuss what is happening, rather then SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!-ing me :)

Top 5 Favorite Ruth Outburst:

*"YOU SKANK!" -Easy A

The Girl behind us were deeply outraged and Kam was deeply red colored.

*" NO! Wait! AHHH!" - Hereafter

Ruth was traumatized by the actress being bashed into everything by the wave.

*"JUST FALL ALREADY!" -Inception

Followed by....

*"LAME!!!!!!!!!!!"

*" SHE'S DEAD!" - Harry Potter 7

Ruth didn't like the snake in the dead lady. Oops spoiler alert!

For more about Kam-..... Hope I write about him again soon:)

Song of the Day: O' Children -Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds

Human

*For reasons unknown,

HUMAN by The Killers makes me think of Christmas time.

It makes me think of snowy roads, red scarfs and brown boots.

It makes me want to bundle up and go dance in a snow storm.

It makes me want to slowly drive down icy roads and admire every one's Christmas tree through the front window.

It REALLY makes me want to buy a pair of FLUFFY earmuffs.

I'm not sure though if I'm a FLUFFY earmuff kind of girl....but I want some:)

Song of the Day: Human- The Killers

*Reasons Unknown- The Killers, is also wonderful:)

Side Note: I want to go on a road trip.

The beach would be LOVELY!

I would settle for St. George though I guess...

But I REALLY want to feel sand and sea shells

Maybe even more then I want FLUFFY earmuffs.

Anyone feel the same?

I will take a trip.

I want to run away to Salt Lake City.

Something in the air speaks to me of freedom

The wind whispers of new beginnings

The sun shines down warm hope.

A freedom to be as different or as same as I want to be.

Today the fog lift in Salt Lake City

Maybe Salt Lake City can lift my fog.

A Few Good Songs:

Read My Mind- The Killers

Konstantine- Something Corporate

Her Morning Elegance- Oren Lavie

*Fog*
-Song Of The Day: Fog- Radiohead
There's a little child
Running round this house
And he never leaves
He will never leave
And the fog comes up from the sewers
And glows in the dark
Baby alligators in the sewers grow up fast
Grow up fast
Anything you want it can be done
How did you go bad?
Did you go bad?
Did you go bad?
**Somethings will never wash away
Did you go bad?
Did you go bad?
