reunion

So it's conference weekend and there are mission reunions going on like always. I've always felt a little left out because l didn't serve and all these people talk about going to their mission reunions and I usually do nothing on the Friday of conference weekend. Well tonight i have my own reunion to go to...The Willey reunion. We're having a reunion for all the people that worked together at RC Willey and I finally feel included :) Just kidding. I didn't even realise that these were happening on the same weekend but it's kind of funny. Theens is coming into town this weekend so we're all getting together to see her. I only hung out with a few of these girls that we worked with but because we worked long BORING hours together at the Willey we all knew each other pretty well so we're all getting together to celebrate our Willeyness. We'll see how it goes.

Mr P. Diddy

I had a dream last night that I was trying to get a job with Mr P. Diddy himself ( that is what we had to call him in the dream). Where this came from I have no idea. I don't spend my days thinking about Diddy and I most certainly wouldn't want to work for him, but none the less the dream was about me competing for one of those internship things like a reality show. I remember wanting to impress him so much and being really stressed but that's about it. Oh I remember walking into a room where I was going to make breakfast and a man was sitting on the couch watching tv and I said "Good morning" really sweetly because I thought it was Diddy but then I noticed it wasn't and was angry that I had even wasted my time talking to him. Totally sounds like me huh?! :)

Waxing hurts all involved

Last night was my worst night at school. We're learning waxing and last night we started learning bikini waxing. It was a little awkward anyway (when you have to press down with your hand on an area after you rip the wax off...just imagine that) but after we got used to everyone's...area it was ok. I decided to do Brittany...the only girl in class who isn't mormon and who has a temper and who is a little bit of a beotch. Well it was all fun and games for the first 15 minutes when we were laughing through Brittany's pain but then it turned ugly. I put the wax on too thick one time and it wouldn't come off so we had to go over that section like 4 times which would try anyone's patience. Then we started using the hard wax which is the kind you don't need a strip of paper to pull off, you just put it on and then rip it off with your hand. The only problem with hard wax is that you have to flick up the edge to get a grip on it and that kills! Especially in certain areas. So the last section we were doing I put a patch of hard wax on and tried to flick it to get an edge up but Brittany wouldn't let me do it to much, she just wanted me to pull it off. So I got a little edge up and tried to pull it off but it didn't come off. By this time everyone else in the class is watching us so I'm sweating and nervous and Brittany is angry so she started to cry. Of course this make me feel horrible and I just wanted to cry (mostly because I can't stop myself from crying if anyone in my vacinity is crying) and because I was so stressed. Anyway we finished and the tension was thick and I hated it and I stopped myself from crying till I got into my car to drive home. I don't even know really why I cried about it, I guess it was just the stress of the whole situation. So now I'm terrified to do anyone else's bikini line. I'll stick to facials please.

runnin runnin runnin

I swear that all week long I am just waiting, pineing, longer for the weekend to come and finally when it does, it's gone in like 2 seconds. I hate it so much. Because I can't do anything with anyone during the week I have to try to hang out with people on the weekends. And I know that sounds like I have a ton of friends, which I don't, but enough that I feel like I need to do something with them every few weeks and that takes up all my weekend. Usually I spend all day on Saturday cleaning my room which takes me awhile because I watch The Office on my computer while I'm doing it. I wouldn't have to clean my room every Saturday if I would just put my stuff away when I got home every night but I don't want to do that at 10:00pm so I just throw everything on the floor and crawl into bed. Thus my room is a MESS by Saturday (well by Wednesday really but a really big mess by Satruday). This weekend however was not spent doing the things I needed to be doing and instead doing things I wanted to do. On Friday after work I went to the mall and actually found cute jeans (which NEVER happens) so I snatched them up. Then I went to dinner at Old Spagetti Factory with some friends for Sara Hendricks birthday. The food was terrible, our waiter passed out, and the girl next to me was so thirsty but everytime the water lady came around they filled up everyone's glass but hers. Then we went to Sara's for cake (which was the richest most chocolaty cake I have every eatten in my life. It was like 5 layers of chocolate cake with chocolate frosting in the middle and thick chocolate fosting on the outside with chocolate shavings all over it) . We stayed there till like 12:00. Saturday I met up with the girls in my class at school and we went to breakfast at Mimi's Cafe which was pretty dang good. Then we went to Nordstorms for the make over day thing where they have tons of people come in and do people's make-up. We all had it done by Mac and Brittany's looked SO good but mine was pretty bad, Lexi's was ok, and Chrisi's looked like a clown. There is this new line by Mac called Barbie that has a bunch of hot pink everything. From eye liner to lipstick. Well Chrisi wanted that done so she came out with a PINK face. It was crazy. We all laughed a lot about it, we should have taken pictures. When I got home from that I cleaned my room a little but got to watching Tristan and Isolde on TV and didn't get much done. At 6:00 we had Stake Conference where Elder Nelson came and spoke to us. It was really good! He talked about not procrastinating because we never know when our time is up. That night I tried to go home and study but I laid down on my bed and was out at like 9:00. Sunday was spent at Stake Conference again, taking a short nap, and going to eat at my brother's house with my family. We watched The Amazing Race that night which was amazing! I'm so happy Rob and Amber are gone. I went to Ward Prayer after that and then went to bed. I have a test today that I haven't studied for at all (I feel real confident) and a whole week till I get the stuff done that I needed to get done on Saturday. I can't believe it's only Monday :(

The Secret

For the last few days in school during our dinner break we've been watching The Secret DVD. It's the thing that was on Oprah and it's this huge popular thing now. It's really interesting and I agree with a lot of it and I disagree with a lot of it. Basically what it is is the gospel but people don't know that. The secret is the Law of Attraction. Whatever you put out into the universe is going to come back to you. If you are negative or mean then bad things are going to happen to you. Not that that is the gospel but they talk a lot about being grateful and having a good attitude. They talk about how we are divine and we have a spirit that will eventually be a God. It's really interesting. It's kind of cool how they tell you to go through and write down all the things that you want in your life. They say to concentrate on them for a little while everyday and actually imagine yourself having it and then release it into the universe (or to God) and you will get it. I'm going to kind of use that technique. I'm going to write down the things that I want and focus on them and work towards them but I don't expect to get them if I don't work for them, or if by chance Heavenly Father doesn't want me to have them. You know what I mean. Anyway it's always a good idea to have something to work towards and fantasize about so why not. I'll let you know how it goes!
