Weekend Review

So basically every weekend is a partayy in Lilburn/Snellville/Grayson , GA. Haa. We can't just pick ONE city as you can tell--we like to adventure to all of them. :)
So lets see..where to begin. Fridayy was kind of interesting. Christa drove me to school through an intense rain storm and picked me up after my insanely boring Sociology class. From there I went to work..where I was bored out of my mind. Haa. Laterr--Manda came and got me to head to her FINAL lesson..How sadd right? So we went to Jareds house where we watched 'The Testaments' with the missionaries. I balled like a baby, along with Arianne, & Cassandra. Jared..fell asleep? And the missionaries remained neutral. They're beasts. Bah-haa.
After that fabulous lesson the group went to visit Brianna at work and to EAT. We get hungryy alot. Haa. Then we went to chill at Jareds house. Kayy--So i wont bore you with details of us "chillin" but I will tell you that when Arianne and I get tired..it gets hilarious. One minute we're sitting laughing at the boys and the next we're like hysterically laughing and crying so hard we cant breathe. We laughed and cried like this for like 10 mintutes. What a work out! Haa. I dont even remember what was that funny...I think it was just that i was exhausted. I deprive myself of sleep alot..which isnt really healthy. Ya know? Haa. Below is a picture of me and Arianne incase you forgot what our crazyy faces look like :)
Lets see.. Saturdayy was a brand new dayy. And by new dayy I mean it was still raining like crazayy. Haa. Well..this may shock some of you..buuut I got up WILLIINGLY at like 9:20, not only did I get up but i played soccer. Haa. I know WHOA. But Cassandra came and got me and rocked out the mini van all the wayy to the Lawrenceville building. On the wayy we realized just HOW muddy we were gonna get. Haa. Once we got to the building we met up with Nicholson & Chappel..Jared..Ben..Manda..and Brace. Along the wayy we got more players but the initial game was intense. Haa. My team was--Me, Cassandra, Jared, Brace, and Petrice. I think that was all of us. Later it included Elder Morris, and Wes Kun. But it dont matter. In the end my team won the muddy battle. And I must sayy I wasnt the least graceful this time. Elder Chappell totally stole my title. Haa. But its okayy, the mud looked much better all over him than me so i didnt mind. Bah-haa. And when I say mud ya'll know I mean good 'ol Georgia clay. :) Well after such an awesome game it was time for slip 'n sliding. Lets just say we were a little scared. I mean, think about it. Most of us havent sliped 'n slid since we were like 10. And here we are like 20 years old. Ahh..Whaa now? Haa. But it was veryy successful and we got especially dirtyy. Well--from the game we went to Katies championship game against Grayson. It was intense..and we lost. Thats all thats gonna be said. Haa

After the game we were supposed to go paintballing. However, we were wet and cold and thought it best that we get showers. So we went home and got so fresh and so clean..clean! Haa. Then we ( and when I say we I mean Manda and me) went to visit our good frannd James. I had to practice my veryy awesome song for Mandas baptism and he needed to practice with me too. So we practiced for like 20 min. but..we were there for like 3 hours. Haa. We had decided that we needed some time to catch up with James. We felt like we hadnt seen him in forever. Haa. But after some time with James we went to dinner and on to Wally World--where we bought some awesome cheap white panties. Haa. Manda needed them for her big dayy. We also got some sparkling juice for her celebration dinner. Can I just mention how hard it is to have that stuff in your house and not drink it. Haa. But then we headed home in anticipation of her baptism day. :)


So..yayy for baptism dayy. And guess what we woke up to?! Haa. SNOW. We were like Whaaa? Well on the way to church Brace called and informed us that Mandas baptism had moved to 2:30 and that everything except for priesthood/relief society and sacrament were cancelled. In a swift rush to the church we tried on Mandas baptism dress and got everything organized. After sacrament Manda and I rushed like crazyy to get dressed fast.. 'Okayy' Haa. That was like our saying for the weekend. Amandas baptism was amazing. My song went ehh..and the talks were awesome. However, they all kept mentioning how Manda and I are never apart? Haa. I almost cried a couple of times but I held it back. Had to be strong for the best frannd. But after our mad dash to getting dressed Manda got confirmed. I think thats officially the first time i've ever listened to a confirmation blessing. It was amazing. Elder Nicholson did such an awesome job. Afterwards we all got in the snow and took a group picture. The church aspect of the dayy was awesome. :)




After church Manda and I went home to get warm. Then we cozied up to Katie and watched a lil bit of Singles ward. We had to celebrate her first day being mormon properly. Haa. She thought it was funny and was excited to know "God be with you till we meet again" so she could sing along. Bah-haa. That was nice and relaxing. Then it was time for the big snowball fight so we headed over to James' house. Stupidly we wore our Sperrys so getting down the hill was like close to impossible. After we got down the hill we could hardly move because of the lack of traction on our shoes. But whatevs..we had fun in the snow. But after we played a group favorite. Mario Kart. :) Manda and I are slowly but surely getting SO much better. Haha. We beat Tamara. Bah-haa. But it was funn.

Soo--all in all my weekend was a blast. Like every weekend. However, its soon gonna come to a close when all the Idaho people leave and certain people leave on missions. But Amanda and I will reign supreme as the cool kids on the block. But I think I have written more than enough. So till next time!

Bored at work..

Okayy--So I have been sitting at work hopelessly bored for like 2 hours.
Haa.
So I decided to make a paper snowboard for my toy penguin.
Juvenile?? I think not!
So I decided that I should post pictures of all the work I've gotten accomplished todayy.

This is Bonnie..aka Bedward..and this is her cool Roxy snowboard that I made her. Its sweet! :)

Bonnie-Bedward also got drawn hitting the slopes..I think the tie makes her look sharp. Shes a sophisticated woman! :)
So yeahh...everyone at work thinks im funny. But I was just occupying my time! Haa.

I think Bonnie looks the best that shes ever looked! So healthyy and youthful!

Funn mixed with Tackyyy..

So this past weekend was a lot of fun. On Friday Manda and I had a pretty hectic schedule. lol. We went to Jareds for his awesome dance partayy..then headed to Ponce for another awesome dance partayy. However, lol, on the wayy there our fabulous frannds got lost and grouchy and in turn made us annoyed and irritable. Haa. We showed up at the dance and there were like 15 people in there maybe shaking their groove thing. Soo..we started to head back home. While on the wayy home we decided that we would be excellent frannds and suprise our grouchy frannds when they got home..
--1 hr && 15 min laterr--
yeahh..they didnt show up. Basically Manda and I had a dance partayy all to ourselves in my truck. But its okayy..because we learned we could dance like gangstas..so we're good. Lol. From this exciting dance partayy in my truck we headed to Green's house. I learned how to make the latin king's gang sign--it looks like a crown--, & got my hopes and dreams crushed. Bah-haa
Basically we stayed up alll night playing Halo eating bacon, cheese dip and quesadillas :)
It was pretty stinkin awesome untill..Green decided to get into her little ghost thing and run me over a gazillion times. haa. I mean really who runs over someone who is just frolicking..thinking about life..and not be a danger to society..Thats right..Cassandra Green. :)
I have to admit however..it made me laugh. Or that could have been the result of it being like 7:30 in the morning. Either wayy we had a jolly good time!
--Girls Halo Night again please!--

On Saturdayy..lets just say I had a hard time waking up. Buut once I did I went and saw my sister playy a lil B-ball at the church and met up with Arianne. Then we went to get Manda and the 3 musketeers were off! We have been trying to find Manda a new outfit for after her baptism but we havent had that much success. I think our problem is that we dont just want to get her one outfit. We want to get her pieces that she can put with other things ya know?

So after about an hour or so of looking for church clothes we gave up. buut--earlier in the dayy we had found a bull at Khols for Elder Nicholson..Why you ask? Well if I told you then I'd have to kill you. Haa! But anywayy..this led our way to Wally World. =) Where we had tons of fun
We took pictures for the missionaries. The one for Nicholson had us making our Merr faces and hand signs.

And the one for Wynder and Chappell--well lets just sayy we had a lil too much fun with clip on and zip ties =)


We ended up making the missionaires cards and getting them individual gifts. Nicholson got False Idol--later named FIGI-- and Wynder and Chappell got bubbles and kites. We decided that the missionaries needed presents because..they deserved them =)


Later that night we went to an AWESOME bonfire at President Heatons house. There were so many people there it was ridiculous. Thats where we presented the presents. They loved them :) Haa. After the Bonfire me, arianne, james, brett, stephen, and dave went to James' house. We watched transformers..lol. It was a really long night! :)

-- But overall this weekend was a lot of funn. Who knew GA wasnt all that lame? Bah-haa--

I feel like i've written enough to last a little while. But..one more thing. Yesterday, I got Collins wedding invitation in the mail. Everyone has been asking for pictures..so im here to show you what it looks like. Feel free to have your own opinions on it. I dont think I should post mine on here. Bah-haa.. But here goes nothingg.

So the onlyy thing I will sayy about this invitation comes directly from the mouth of Elder Nicholson..

-- Wow! That is tackyy..whats with his gangsta hat--

Little jots..

So..the weather today is kinda crummy. Which in turn makes my mood kinda crummy.

I have no motivation what-so-ever..and my hair is frizzing. Bah-haa.

Also, im a pretty crappy friend. Christopher wrote me like 2 weeks ago and i havent written him back yet..

Its kinda cold in the library and the people behind me are loud and obnoxious.

Everyone finds it fascinating that i withdrew from my English 193 class. But, I mean..why keep a class thats gonna hurt your GPA.

I need more money.
I need to buy some more jeans..
And im out of money.

My parents need to get off my case. And stop setting up "meetings" for all of us to talk. They're annoying and all they do is make me madd.

My speech class starts in about 20 min. Its my favorite class..but todayy--I have no desire to go.

Im tired of Gwinnett Tech and want to get back out west really bad..

I miss all of my friends in Utah..and just Utah itself. I used to be so anti-utah that i find this funny and somewhat ironic.

I find it irritatingly annoying when people wear flip flops when its cold outside. Thats just plain dumb. Where close toe shoes my friends.

Im excited for the shopping adventures this weekend that Amanda, Arianne, and I are going on.

I hate when youre telling someone a story & they think theres is better so the try to "one up" you. I wasnt telling my story to hear yours..I was telling my story so you could hear mine!!

This sweater im wearing looks like I spilled coke or something in random spots. Its kinda odd.

--I warned you guys I was in a crummy mood. But i suppose jotting these things down may help my mood in the long run?? Who knows. Bah-haa. However, its time for me to go to my WONDERFUL class. Where I will sit and be bored. Dangg. I cant wait till I am done with Gwinnett Tech..this school is starting to bother me. I feel like my intelligence is being insulted sometimes. Im not dumb--really. Im actually kinda smart.. Who'da thunk it. haaahaa. :) --
