NEVER BE DOMINATED!!!

This is why Eisley is my favorite band!! They are so flippin HILARIOUS!! I could see myself being their friend because they act like me!! Haha!! I laughed pretty hard watching this interview, they are sharing their thoughts and reflections about 2007! Junk I love em so much!!

Mas!

I realized that I don't write blogs as much as I used to and that I should start writing more often to keep eveyone posted on my life, I guess I just figure that my days aren't that exciting and my blogs may be kinda boring for everyone to read about. But I will try to do better and write more.
Heres a lil update for everyone, I am down in Rexburg still. I did get a job at wal-mart, I am a sales associate in the ladies apparel dept. Exciting isn't really the proper word I'd use to describe my job. But it is a job and there could be worse! However I'm prob putting in my two weeks notice today because I want to go home for Christmas and I don't want to work at wal-mart when school starts. I've never had a job while going to school fulltime, I don't think I could handle both. School for me is a full time job, it takes a lot of time and dedication and is the most important job for me at this time. I don't want a job at wal-mart to put my studies second and make me fail my classes. Besides I don't need to have a job while going to school anyways.
Other than working I mainly just chill at my apt with my roomies and friends. I highly enjoy my roomies they are wonderful people and I am blessed to be living with them.
It has been a while since I last posted anything besides Eisley....let's see what else has happened....hmmm...My bro Dan is now in NY on his mish. It took him a lil longer to leave the MTC because he had a freak volleyball accident and broke his baby toe, so he had to stay in the MTC a few extra weeks. He is now serving the Lord in NY and loving it!! He is a testimony to me that the Lord hears and answers our prayers!
Ummm...let's see...well we all know how Klutzy and accident prone I am. A few weeks ago I was hurrying out the door running down the steps of my apt(i live on the third floor) putting a hoodie on at the same time, trying to make it to a car that was attempting to drive off without me, as I ran to get into the car door somehow I nailed my head on the corner of the open door! Well I dropped down on the pavement holding my head, thinking for a second that I might have split my head open(it hurt really bad!) but luckily I just ended up with a big goose egg and no gash in my forehead! After the initial shock from everyone that witnessed the event, and once they realized my head was not cracked open there was much laughter and joking. I did end up with a pretty good lump but no big bruise, that night after realizing we didn't have an ice pack I used whatever I could find to reduce the swelling, whether it be an otter pop, a bag of frozen veggies, or a can of juice, I made it work!

Also one night during "the office" my roomie Carolyn(Coach as we like to call her)decided she wanted to have a competition with me to see who could sit upside down the longest,I'm a competitive person so I naturally said "Bring it on!" anywho turns out you shouldn't sit upside down for very long, it makes your head feel like it's going to explode especially since just the week before I had an encounter with a car door...anyways I was not going to give up even if I was about to pass out, and she wouldn't give up, after about 45 min she agreed to call it a draw.



Well I think this is long enough for one day, hopefully you all feel a lil more caught up on my life and well being. I will try to post more often! Hope you are all doing well and had nice thanksgivings! I am thankful for your friendship and thankful you actually read my blog!!! Take care!

Long time...

Member the time I went to an Eisley concert and never posted back about it?? Yeah I don't remember either :)
Anywho the concert was amazing! I was front row right in front of sherri the lead guitarist/singer. It was absolutley marvelous! I had such a wonderful time. They played my fav songs and I sung along to them all! After their set I was able to get the set list from Garron the bass player, the set list is the list of songs on a sheet that the band plays for their set, anyways that was aweosome! One because the set list is really cool looking on this eisley paper and two Garron responded when I talked to him and his hand touched mine :)
So after the set the band was signing and taking pics at their merch booth at the back of the venue so I was able to go back and get my pic with the band(minus Weston cuz he was outside puttin equipment away)I also got my CD signed and the set list!
Overall the experience was amazing and something that I will always remember! I only hope they will play more shows close by because I def want to see them again! It was the greatest concert I have ever been too(I've only been to a few..but still) Eisley is definitely my fav band, not only because they play radical music, but because they are all really good people. Yeah they have a band and are extremely talented but they are so humble and down to earth, they are just normal people who happen to have a band, but the whole band is their family, it's 3 sisters their bro and cousin and their dad Boyd is their manager! How cool is that! They get to travel around doing what they love with the people they love the most!! Oh...I do love Eisley!!
After the concert me and my bro stayed with our cousin Kim and her family, we really appreciated it a ton! It was nice to see them all even if it was just for a bit!
So there you have it! That is a lil brief recap! I had such a good time! If you never listen to Eisley in your life or know who they are than you are missing out...but I hope that you can have an experience like I did with a band or something you really enjoy sometime in your life because it is truly fabulous!!!

I <3 EISLEY!!!!

So I am back in Rexburg now for all of you who don't remember or have forgotten...Yes Fall is still my off track, but I decided to do something different this year and stay down in Rexburg and work during my off track. I still don't have a job, but I might be getting something here shortly...ummm...working at Wal-Mart again...I know I said I didn't want to work there again...but things just kinda fell into place and it just kinda came about. So we shall see how that goes.....
ANYWHO!!! My Fav band in the whole world EISLEY, is performing in SLC on OCT 2, so next tuesday and I really really wanted to go but didn't think I would be able to and junk like that...Well just so y'all know...I purchased my Tickets today, so next tuesday I will finally be able to see my fav band perform live and perhaps I will get to meet them as well....I am so so excited!! Everytime they go on tour I always want to go to one of their shows, but they are never performing in a city nearby and now they are the closest they have ever been so I can not miss this opportunity!! Anywho, I am really excited!! I will def post after the concert!! Next week is going to be amazing!!
Also next week is going to be busy, this coming Friday I am going back to spokane for my brother Daniels Missionary farewell, he is going to the New York, Utica Mission and leaves for the MTC Oct 10th...we are all so excited for him and know he is going to be an amazing missionary.

The darn-dest things!

These last couple days I have been working for my aunt at her daycare taking care of 12 lil niños! It's been interesting, children are funny and cute and sometimes not so cute! I heard the funniest thing today, a lil girl came up to me as I was sittin outside watching them and playing with them and she said " I want to ride the tater tot!" and I was like, "What? You want a tater tot?" she responds "No I want to ride on the tater tot" and she points to the Teter Totter! Haha! It was really funny and cute!

PS: Lil kids smell like drier sheets or some form of detergent...I'm just sayin....

Don't ask me why!

Ok so I love the fact that I love music. I love music, it rocks!! This is what I love at the moment. I have realized that I can hear a song on the radio, and sometimes I don't know what the song is, but I will really like it, and I will think in my head, this sounds like this artist or this band, and than I will take that to the internet and I can almost always find the song I was listening to earlier and most of the time my guess at the artist was correct!! It's way rad!!
Or, I will think of a song I used to like a long time ago but have totally forgotten who sang it or what it was titled and I only know a few words, so I can take those few words and do some searchin and almost always find it!! I love findin the song, it makes me feel like a detective that just came across a beautiful treasure!!
Anywho I guess I was just thinkin of that today cuz it happened again. I heard a song on the radio and thought, I like this song kinda sounds like billy joel, but I didn't listen to the words and I just forgot about it til I got home and was like what was that song I was listening to earlier? Junk I don't know any of the words, but it did sound like billy joel, so I went to the internet and found out what song it was, "Don't ask me why" by one mr. billy joel!!! Woo!! When I heard it playin I was so excited I had uncovered this jewel it felt like!!
Wellllll....thats just a lil somethin somethin I noticed!! I flippin LOVE music!! It's the best! Woo for Music!!! Word!

life

What is this life without the ones we love? I think it would be trashy! I know I wrote a blog like this before, but this past week has just reinforced this idea to me again and how true it is for me. Here are the facts: My life is made up of others. Other people make me who I am, they make my life what it is. Without them than my life would be pointless. If we think about it everything in our life we do for others. Not that we aren't our own person and aren't individual, because we are. I'm just sayin that for me, my life consists of other people. I care greatly for people...this may be a strong point and it may be a weakness as well, but I care so so much for others and I love them with all my heart! When I really love someone in a way their life becomes my life as well. I am excited when they are excited! When they hurt, I hurt as well. When they succeed than I feel like I have succeeded as well. When they go off and start a new adventure, I want to be there with them experiencing it along side them. They are so important to me and their happiness is my happiness. I just love them so much and want them to be so happy in this life and I try to make them happy, I try to be there for them and support them in all they do and at times give them guidance when they may need it. Their life becomes as important to me as my own life! And I guess I try to live my life in a way that others can look at me and in some way I can help them at that moment. I can make them happy! When others are happy I am so happy! I love my life because I have so many wonderful people who make it great! They give me the experiences that make me who I am, and I am so grateful for that...for them....for the people they are who have helped me become who I am! People are so amazing and I love them!

Who'd have thought???

This song is awesome...


Who'd have thought it could be played like this? When I first heard it I thought it was ridiculous however now...I really like it!

Member when....

I hit a grand slam...yeah that was amazing...oh but that wasn't the "member when", it was...member when my fastpitch competitive softball team at BYU-Idaho flippin won the championship and was undefeated the whole season?? Yeah I don't remember it either cuz I wasn't there...However, it was my team and we flippin rock!! We kept sayin don't be cocky don't be cocky or that's when we get beat, but guess what?? We flippin didn't get beat and my team is the best, I'm not even going to lie and beat around the bush, My team ROCKS!! And we are the best....everyone knows it, go spread the word.....I'm just sayin...we are amazin. =)

PS: I know I'm being very cocky, but we can't be beat anymore so I have permission to be cocky!!!!

So this onetime.....

I flippin hit a GRAND SLAM!!! That onetime being last night in my intramural co-ed softball team down here at B to the Y to the U to the IDAHO!! WOO!! I'm pretty sure that was my first grand slam and it was absolutely amazin!!! I flippin almost hit it over the fence!! I hit it right to the fence though....oh man, it was wonderful!! I love hitting grand slams, I think I will do it more often =)

It's all your state of mind!!

Lately I have been listening to a song by the band Great Big Sea called "Ordinary Day" it's a wonderful song and makes me feel really happy!! I have been feeling somewhat down lately and that is not like me. I am just really missing people and feel lonely at times. I have a negative view of my classes because I would rather be someowhere else. My state of mind is not positive...than I listen to this song again and it really changes my outlook on life and my circumstances right now. I want to post the lyrics because they are really meaningful to me right now.

I've got a smile on my face, I've got four walls around me
I've got the sun in the sky, all the water surround me
Oh you know, I've been down and sometimes I'll lose
I've been battered, but I'll never bruise... it's not so bad

And I say way-hey-hey, it's just an ordinary day
and it's all your state of mind
At the end of the day,
you've just got to say... it's all right.

Jeana sits on the corner, what keeps her from dying
Let them say what they want, but she won't stop trying
Oh you know, She might stumble, they push her 'round
She might fall, but she'll never lie down...it's not so bad

And I say way-hey-hey, it's just an ordinary day
and it's all your state of mind
At the end of the day,
you've just got to say... it's all right.

**Cuz in this beautiful life there's always some sorrow
It's a double-edged knife, but there's always tomorrow
Oh you know, It's up to you now if you sink or swim,
Just keep the faith and you're ship will come in….it's not so bad**

And I say way-hey-hey, it's just an ordinary day
and it's all your state of mind
At the end of the day,
you've just got to say... it's all right.
And I say way-hey-hey, it's just an ordinary day
and it's all your state of mind
At the end of the day,
you've just got to say... it's all right, it's all right


I've got a smile on my face, I've got four walls around me

This song is so wonderful because everytime I listen to it I feel so so thankful for my life! No matter what happens in my life I am going to be ok! And no matter how bad I think things are sometimes there is always someone that has it worse than me. My life is good...
"I've got a smile on my face, I've got four walls around me."

Youtube

Youtube.com is pretty wonderful sometimes people post some pretty rad stuff on there...I am trying to get the hang of that junk lately...I posted a couple videos on there, nothing real big...but you should all check them out...which since no one reads this anymore except joette...joette...go check out my youtube videos!! Love you!! Youtube rocks woo woo!!!

La la la la la la life is wonderful!

I was going to post this in my other blog, but no one reads that anyways...not that anyone really reads this one either, but I think this fits here better:
So pretty much I don't even live in spokane anymore, I'm in rexburg...but I do occasionally go home, and I was home this past weekend, I hung out with friends it was fun. Pretty much when I was home for fall spokane was amazing because my friends are amazing....other than that spokane is just spokane, without great people to do stuff with, its just another place to dwell...I have found that happiness is a state of mind that is created by good people, doesn't matter where you are, if you are with good people than it will be the best place ever...likewise if you are at a really awesome place it can be ruined by the people you are with, and you will learn to not like that place. People are what make a life great, not places or things, but the people in your life make it what it is...which for me is wonderful!

Loser!

Yeah I flippin lost the table tennis tournament. It was fun though. I'm not as good as the professional kids who flippin have their paddles in zip up cases and junk. They are insane ping pong kids...I am just not that intense. Oh well win some lose some...or I guess lose them all...whatev it's still fun playing! I guess I am not meant to be ping pong champion of the world. Shucks!

Table Tennis anyone?

Wow Table Tennis is so flippin awesome!! I am playing in a tournament down here just for fun tomorrow and I am really excited!! It's so fun to play!! Anyways it is a pretty intense sport...I mean like way outta control intense...like these guys...


don't worry I'm not that intense, I just pretend to be...

Some people are crazy!

Sometimes I know people that are real crazy. Like I had this friend onetime who had just gone back to school for like a week. She really missed her friends and junk who happend to live in spokane. So you know what she flippin did? She went home on friday and she had only been at school for less than a week. She got done with her classes and than just left, got in her car and drove home, which is like a 7hr drive or somethin...yeah man she was so insane! I think she must have been on drugs! She didn't really tell anyone... she just up and left by herself, I guess you could say she ran away...but anyways it was probably the best thing she had done in a while! And I heard she had so much fun, she stayed with her best friend and it was good times...Than on sunday she got in her car and drove back to school because she had class monday. She is pretty psycho, I don't really talk about her much cuz she is nuts! Anywho I thought what she did was interesting and should be documented in a blog...I'm just sayin...

A very good place to start!

Do you ever get the sudden urge to sing "The Sound of Music" songs at the top of your lungs? Cuz I sure do!!

California knows how to party!!!

Oh yeah I am going to California for the week between semesters, it's going to be very much a lot of fun and I am super uber duper excited!! Sometimes I just get so excited thinking about it...I am going with some of my buddies from Spokompton like B-rizzle, A-shizzle, J-sizzle,Kel-izzle...it's going to be of the Hizzook!! I hope I see some celebs like...you know famous people...that is one of my life goals actually... Anyways going to California makes me think of some songs....like these ones....not all the videos make sense but the song used is the song I was thinking of.... maybe I will add some more later but I doubt it....
