woke up this morning at 6:30 this morning and hurried and got ready in pretty much 20 minutes so I could have an extra half hour to sleep :) it was very refreshing, haha i think I will continue this morning schedule.
when I got to school i was quickly encountered by jordan and paine haha, love these guys, they crack me up, love peer tutoring. I modeled in Art class so I didn't have to draw haha, I love to draw but I want to see everyone's drawing of me. people did really good!
Seminary wasn't as bad is it usually is, I wasn't as bored as usual. lunch, my favorite! hanged out with Harley, she is SO freakin funny, love this girl and my sign language is improving sooooo much! she says I do pretty good.
peer tutoring all we did was watch pluto and color in coloring books. but in landscaping I made my first Boutinere! and it pretty much looks Pro! all in all not a bad day

I woke up this morning and tried to keep focused on my chores but of course I have a tendency of getting sidetracked haha. But soon that morning one of my good friends Cody called and of course go on a little date and go to the mall. I go on dates pretty often with Cody :) we just enjoy each others company. He's a friend I'll always want to keep close to me :) so I hurried and finished my chores, showed my parents my homework, and even helped my mom make dinner :) chopped vegetables for clam chowder. I got dressed up then and waited for Cody who was also bringing Jordan and Colton his brother. I was very excited for Cody cause this time he'd be driving me for once :) he got his drivers license Tuesday and his hand controls were placed in. Now he can drive! So cool! I couldn't believe how good he did driving! Better then Colton haha his brothers a scary driver. He only had to ask directions. I hadn't been in the mall since probably summer if not longer, haha I was so shocked when I went in! It was like I had been gone for years haha so many new stores and booths and everything was decorated for Christmas! It was almost magical haha I felt like a little kid again! I didn't know what to do first so we decided to eat since I hadn't eatin and Cody was a little hungry. I was hungry for Chinese but was alright with whatever Cody chose :) apparently he loves Greek haha who knew? So we got a combo plate. As we were waiting for our food who came to say hi but Joseph Dodart! I haven't seen that kid since seminary class my sophmore year! Haha this kid was hillarious! He always made me laugh! He was just as friendly as he used to be :) same joe. I was happy to know he was still dating megan going onto three years now :) it was really fun to see him.
The food was really good of course I liked the rice best haha never been a huge fan of meat haha I like it but in huge amounts.
After that we just shopped around and I'd course got photo booth pictures for my collection. It was a really fun date and we had time to watch a movie after. I always have a really good time wih Cody.

School was average, nothing special to report at all.
I was grounded to do anything outside of the home. I'm not completely sure why I was grounded. But I didn't really mind. But best part of the whole day, Laycee my best friend showed up unexpectingly at my back door! It was the best surprise ever! I haven't seen her hardly all week even though she lives next door cause they are fixing up her house so they are staying at her grandmas for a little bit. I was so excited to see her! She couldn't find her dog who I'd prieviously seen eating Milos food. That dog us so fat, I made the joke and said, well she couldn't have gone farr hahaha. She just laughed, she won't deny anymore that her dog is rediculously fat, even for a basset hound haha. We found of course in the house haha. Then we raked my leaves haha. She wants to put the leaves on the bottom of her snow cave she will eventually make haha most likely with my help. Haha me and laycee always have some kinda project or dream we work on, it's been that way ever since we were little and tried to sell pet bugs on the side of the road hahaha. I just can't wait to sleep in a bed of leaves in a snowcave like foxes haha. I truly love our adventures haha

"Pray for mercy from Puss... in boots"- puss in boots

2011-11-03T18:31:00.000-07:00

me and my parents, if we spend any time together it's almost always to see a movie. today we saw "Puss In Boots" it was pretty funny! I really really liked it. my sense of humor and very clever! I love how all the Shrek films incorporate all the fairytales and nursery rhymes, it's so clever how they all collide and very fun! my favorite character in this film was obviously puss in boots. he's just the best, there's no competition. I know it's lame to like the main character best, but hey he's just too cool. I also loved the kitty soft paws. her and puss are the most adorable couple ever! and humpty dumpty, he had his moments. pretty much the most respect for him i have though is that he's voiced by Zach Galifianakis who I think is just great. all in all it was a fantastic film. it got good reviews too...so hey, it's not just me :) oh and interesting fact, puss in boots, the original story is actually french, why they would cast antonio for a french cat i have no idea but they obviously realized that spanish antonio is just better.....so puss in boots, feline zorro. hey i like it :) just for fun I watched the black and white 1922, walt disneys puss in boots cartoon....hahaha i love those little cute cartoons :) I respect a cute cartoon with piano playing in the background :)

"The morning after my high-school graduation found me up early job hunting. The dream of college I put on the back burner".-Martha Reeves

2011-11-03T12:30:00.000-07:00

Graduation? didn't think about it till now.......what will i do after? college? move out?
today i took some time to actually think about these things and i've come up with a list of what I hope to do

1. form a resume, i've only worked at this job....so i never really needed a resume, but now I really need to make one. I need someone who's good at that kinda thing to help me out....maybe lisa? sherie? my sister?

2. find a better job; my job right now is just a substitute for a daycare, which I like for it's flexibility, but I don't work very much. I want to find a job that I can have set hours and set money.

3.save money! save a good amount of my money earned for moving out and getting started.

4.graduate.....no point in any of this if I don't graduate high school....i'm good so farr but need to do some make up credit.

5.I'm hoping that I can move into the apartment in ryan's basement and laycee too :)

6.go to college....probably weber state. money is always an issue. but at least i'll have a free bus pass! i'll be riding the bus alot!

that's all I have so farr.......far fetch? or realistic....i don't know, i'll go for it anyways.

"ya, opposites attract....that's just crap, thats garbage" -Mr. Ottley/my english teacher

2011-11-03T11:11:00.000-07:00

So although my English teacher Mr. Ottley is pretty eccentric and maybe even crazy as viewed by some people, he does give some really good advice sometimes. one piece of really good advice that he gave us today, coming from him who's divorced and dating.
"to make a marriage work is to find someone who shares the same fundamental values that you do" pretty much what that means is to find someone who has the same expectations, values, and views that you do, not just that you both like to ski or hike, but real similarities that really matter. I completely agree with him. although i don't think the idea that opposites attract is complete garbage. i tend to date guys who are somewhat different from me, just because I like them, i think they are refreshing, different. but it never works out when we have different opinions on a lot of things, mainly religion. so my hypothesis; I take his advice to heart, but I'm still all about the "breakfast club" scenario, i think it's awesome to have the jock fall for the goth, and the bad boy to fall for the popular girl. as long as they share the same views....that's cool

morning's need to get better. I keep forgetting to take my pills and my mom gets so frustrated! my goal is to try and do alot better with that, maybe she'll be a little more easy going, loosen my leashe a bit. i spent the whole first half of school in the art room, staying there during ap art, seminary and lunch. just painting and sketching. I was feeling very inspired just to do art today.....maybe thats a sign i'm becoming more of myself again.

"Democracy gives every man the right to be his own oppressor" - James Russell Lowell

2011-11-01T11:36:00.000-07:00

RANDOM THOUGHT:
I don't know whether I'm a democrat or republican? I don't know what I'll do when i can vote cause i won't have a real opinion. I've never really cared who the next president will be. i never knew enough about the candidates to have an opinion or care at all. what brings it up is that my English teacher Mr. Ottley who i believe is democrat brings up the fact often that Utah is almost all republican. i wonder if it's based on beliefs or just tradition. if i hadn't thought about this now I'd probably just be republican without putting any thought into it at all simply because my parents are. but it also seems to be a trend to be democrat to be different from anyone else. rebel. i could possibly be in that category. i like being different, going against the odds. i don't know if i really care enough to look into it though, i think i probably won't be either and simply just pick who i liked based unbiased on democracy. i don't know like i said. i probably won't care until I'm in the situations where i seriously need to ask this question. but as of now it probably doesn't truly matter. or maybe it should since I'm writing about it. i say i don't care, but in a really small way i must care a little to be writing about it.

2011-11-01T11:30:00.000-07:00

So this is November 1st of my senior year and I still haven't fully kept a ongoing journal so I hope I can use my ipod where it's more assessable and I take it everywhere. This means I have no excuse for not writing in it everyday. so my goal is to not miss one day. we will see how long that lasts.
here are some pictures from the first day of school. seemed appropriate to show some pictures of me now, since i'm starting this journal. i think they are personally ugly.
