October Post.......Fast!

Ok, I'm seeing that the month of October is counting down! I need to hurry. I still haven't gotten my picture stuff working with my computer. However, let's talk about some things that happened during this last month and a half.

I was able to attend the YSA Conference on Sept 19-20 in Ft. Worth, Texas, with my roommate Bethany and Tia. President Uchtdorf came and spoke on the Sunday of this conference. It was so much fun! Plus, Bethany and I were able to go to Medieval Times in Dallas, TX on Saturday night. We had a great time and loved the road-trip!

There are currently seven individuals living in our household. We have decided to start a monthly newsletter/blog for our apartment. Here we are able to post stories, anecdotes, and new information for the house. I want to let everyone know the blog is:
http://www.thewholeshebanghouse.blogspot.com
You can come to this, and see if you can spot yours truly. The newest edition is coming out in the next week as well.

I was able to do another day road-trip with Alisha and Bethany. We headed to Austin for a rescheduled Cake-Wrecks tour date. We even made it on a picture in the blog. Check this out:

It's the second picture and I am the person that's in the upper right corner, underneath the black book. It was so much fun and am definitely entertained by the things on Cake Wrecks blog. That day we also went to IKEA, the book store, out for chinese food, visit Texas Capital building, then have a few hours of shopping at San Marcos Outlet malls. It was so awesome and amazing! Plus, I have the best of times when I'm hanging out with these two girls.

Work has been busy, but I've been having to get back into a routine. I need to hurry and post this. I've had an interesting Halloween. It was a fun day and evening, but then it just kind of got crappy. However, I'm just being emotional.

Only four minutes left to post, so here you go. I'm starting to get a little nervous that I won't make it. I'm looking for ward to November and I'll try to post in the next day or so.

P.S. I also got afflicted with a skin irritation during one of these weekends. I've got a picture of that. I started looking like the bride of the Stay-puff Marshmallow Man. :S Always lovely!

(Ha, two minutes before midnight!)

Wow. ........ Really?!

I know that this is coming pretty quickly after the last update. I just thought that everyone would be amazed by this.....

I am going on......a reduction of sweet intake in the hopes of losing some much needed weight. In other words.... it's kind of a..... diet?...... :P

I'm taking this stuff called TAIslim with a couple of my meals that may brother and his wife got me to purchase. We'll see if it helps. It has worked for them, which is why I'm giving it a try. Anyway, I know that this is crazy, but..... I need to give something a try to get rid of this belly fat that I's got!

Now don't go insane on me. Cause I still intend to eat my chocolate, just not as a three times a day snack..... or an even greater number times a day snack. I'm going to not eat as much junk stuff and try to eat more of the fruits, vegetables, and grains that I need. I know. I feel like a grown-up now. :)

I'm not working out as much as I used to, but I've been trying to keep more busy at work, which means I'm spending longer there, therefore I don't want to spend as much time doing a work out. However, The Biggest Loser newest season is starting back up here soon, so maybe it'll be inspiring to me! Thanks Mandi, for getting me hooked on it!

Since I still don't have any new pictures to show, I'm going to insert an Il Divo Youtube video because I love listening to them sing and I wanted to put a translation so that I can remember what they are singing to me! *Blush.* I love that they sing to me! The song is The Power of Love (La Fuerza Mayor) by Il Divo.




Translation:
I will protect you from your fears
I am your prince charming
Angel of the sky
There is nothing to be afraid
Today as yesterday,

You are always going to have me


Only your love matters, give it to me
Here I am.


[Chorus]
The biggest strength is in the love
It's inside

The goal is to give it, indeed to show it

Without reason...with the heart.


I promise you that I will take care of you

I will live just to love you

When you are sad I will be there

With this immense love that I feel for you

You will never be cheated

You will be the only thing.


[Chorus]
The biggest strength is in the love
It's inside

The goal is to give it, indeed to show it

Without reason. With the heart.


Loving is understanding

It is to give the heart completely

It is to kiss...to forgive

It is a treasure, a great gift


Only your love matters, give it to me

Here I am.


[Chorus 2x]
The biggest strength is in the love
It's inside

The goal is to give it, indeed to show it

Without reason...with the heart.


Awww, isn't that just the sweetest thing?! And aren't they just hot?!

The Last Option

I'm sorry but I don't have any new pictures on this post.

I really want to, but I just got the newest software for my computer (which is AWESOME) and am very very happy!

You may wonder what has been keeping me from blogging during this month. Well let's talk about some options. There's my job. That could be one. I am enjoying it though! Been keeping busy. There's my calling in the ward, which is to text people when events or activities happen. Also takes about....during the busy weeks, a half hour.....or maybe twenty minutes. But let's look at the real time waster......Can we say "Friends" altogether?! FRIENDS! I have been watching Friends. No not actual people I know, but the T.V. series from long ago. That's a good place to spend all my time! But I have to say Chandler is the funniest, I think. So, that series went for a really long time. Ten seasons to be exact. I started these about three weeks ago. Can you guess where I'm at? I just finished the first disk of Season 8. That's why I haven't blogged.

Other good news, all should be happy to know that I have begun receiving basic guitar lessons from my laptop. Actually he's a man inside my laptop named Tim. And as all of you know, Tim is NOT the name of my computer. But I'm not cheating on him, or either of them. We're all FRIENDS!

This is being delivered at the end of the month of August. I keep my word. Ha ha! :)

Talk to ya'll later.

Flying Time!

I am now sitting in the San Antonio Airport waiting to board my flight! I'm so excited to come home, even if it is only for a little bit! I can't wait. My family is doing their annual vacation to Lagoon and Salt Lake City! However, while going through security one of my headphones broke, so I had to grab a new one.....expensive even for the cheap one. But I'm okay. I had to have my headphones! What else am I supposed to listen to?

Two posts in one month?! This is insane!

Some quick updates on my life:

For July weekend, on July 3rd (to beat out the crowds) I and my roommate went to downtown San Antonio and hung out at the Riverwalk. We went and had an excellent lunch.


Went and saw the new Star Trek movie - very great! Lots of action. I really hot guys! It's all good.


I'm planning on watching the newest Harry Potter movie coming out this week! I'll be going with my roommates! Very exciting.

I watched a couple of seasons of the office - I love Jim and Pam and the pranks that they play on Dwight.


I think the final thing is a great fun experience. We recently got a trampoline at our house. A quick rainstorm started coming down and I was the only one at home. So the first place I ran to was the trampoline! Of course! I loved it! Once it gets all filled with water, the moisture comes back up when you come down! It was awesome! I started getting pictures taken once a roommate and her friend got home but the rain had stopped coming down by then. :( However, we still got some pictures and then another roomie joined me on the trampoline! I know that I look dorky in all these shots, but hey, I just need to practice being more photogenic on a trampoline. It's always good to have a goal! :)



There's also a little video:


And people wonder why I'm not married yet. Crazy!

Transformers 2 and 4th of July Plans

Hey! I'm getting a head start on this month and putting in a new post like, the first day of the month. Pretty much awesome!


I actually did go and do something last night.....I got to go and see the newest Transformers! I loved the special effects! I thought it was good (and I already like the score and part of the soundtrack cause I've been listening to those.

Other than that, I have not done really anything new except work. However, for the 4th of July, one of my roommates and I will be heading to downtown San Antonio to eat out along the River Walk. It'll be crowded but should be a great deal of fun!

Well, I'm going to leave you with another Anthony Griffiths youtube video because I find him way WAY funny and hope that you do too!



"We was in the kitchen! Where'd dirt come from?!"

Ha ha, I love it!

Inciting Fights!

Okay, so, I figure once a month, I'll can put an update up of my blog. In honor of father's day, I'm putting up a url for a video on youtube by a comedian named Anthony Griffiths. I thought it was so funny! This guy is great! This one is called The Holdup! Go real men!!!! :o)



Happy father's day to my dad! (Even though he doesn't have the internet so he won't get this.)

I'm going to be going to Idaho in July but I'll only be there for Saturday, cause my family will be leaving for their annual vacation in Utah. But I'm really excited to go! I've got my plane tickets and the time cleared out at work!
