A Sweetness is in the Air!

What you've all been waiting for.. Yes, I did see Sio on Wednesday! He traveled up from St. George and picked me up at 6:00 p.m, took me to the Pizza Factory, after we picked up Transformers 3, came back to my place and watch it. I am not going to lie, I really like Sio! As I think about it and him, I get this weird feeling that I should like him as much as I do. Most times I try my best to ignore that feeling. I enjoy spending time with Sio, it is so easy to talk to him and just be myself. I've had a couple dreams about Sio, I don't think they are telling me something.. At least I hope they're not telling me something.
Thursday morning I woke up early, got ready to go to Grandma Twitchell's house, made a trip to Wal-mart, and then left. When I made it to Grandma's, my parents just barely got there, and my sisters were already there. I was soo happy to see them all! Thanksgiving dinner was delicious! I wish it was Thanksgiving everyday, then I would be able to eat a little healthier. After dinner Angie, our cousin Stacey, and myself went for a walk around the block, this dog would not stop following us. We met up with our Mama Sharen and Aunt Rachel, and continued walking. Rachel kept asking many question about Sio and how I met him. It was fun because I got to talk about Sio and not have anyone think I was obsessed with him.
My family and I went to our home in West Valley, the drive was long but worth it. The rest of the weekend was great! I love spending time with my family and just being in their presence. I am so blessed to have the family that I have. I do not know where I would be without them and their encouragement. I am so excited to go home for Christmas and spend some time with them. It will only be three days but its better than no days.
On Sunday I came home and this whole week has been a joke, it's been a rough week. Today is the shining day of the week. I had a great day at work, and Sio comes home from Hawaii tonight. On Wednesday I made a plan to go down to St. George and have a triple date with Steve and Maryna, Sara and Riley, and Sio and I. It was all planned and ready but Sio found out he wouldn't be in St. George until late tonight. I then canceled my going to St. George. Sio as of right now, as we speak, on the plane coming home! I am sooo excited to see him! He is planning on coming up to Cedar on Sunday, I am going to make dinner and have people over. After dinner that plan is to go to the First Presidency's Christmas Devotional for our fireside. I can't tell you how happy I am to see him, I am not his girlfriend but I really like him and missed him!
I am so thankful for the hard week I've had, it will pay off sooner or later and will be a gift when it does. Today, after a long hard week, is truly a gift.

Two Weeks and A time of Thanks! :)

Saturday November 5th Maryna and I took a trip to St. George where we were going to meet up with Steve and his Step Brother Courtney. We didn't meet up with them in St. George because they were being slow and we wanted to come back to Cedar. Later Steve, Courtney, and Sio met up with us here in Cedar. We had a pretty great night. On Sunday we all went to church and after Maryna and I went to Steve's house for lunch. We stayed there for a little bit and watched a movie and just relaxed, the three boys were falling asleep so we decided that it was time to go. When we got home I made cookies for our dinner plans that we made. We planned to go to the fireside and after we would make the boys dinner and just hang out. I don't really remember what the fireside was about, yes I know I should have paid better attention. After the fireside the boys came over and we made Spaghetti with Garlic Bread, Maryna and I are pretty good cooks. :) We played a couple games and then I cleaned up, while I was cleaning up Maryna asked me if I wanted to go for a stroll. I said yes! We left for our stroll and it was only Steve, Maryna, Sio, and myself. I remember that it was just a bit chilly and that it had just gotten done snowing. As we were on our stroll Steve told me and Sio to "come here," little did we know that we were under a tree and that Steve was going to pull the brach down. Ha ha ha Sio looked cute with the pile of snow on his head and his nose, a Kodak moment without the Kodak.
Tuesday November 8th Steve, Maryna and I went to the SUU Men's basketball game.. We won! It was fun, I love going to sporting events. That is where fun is! :) Wednesday November 9th Maryna, Steve, and I went down to St. George. Sio's brother just got home from his mission and Steve wanted to go and welcome him home. We made our way down there and we met up with Sio's brother and talked with him and Sio for a little bit. After we went back to Steve's parents home, ate and talked around a fire. Later Sio and Courtney joined us, a little bit after they joined us we went in and watched a movie. Courtney didn't join us because he had home work he wanted to get done, it was just Steve, Maryna, Sio, and me again.. Of course Steve and Maryna sat next to each other which left me and Sio sitting next to each other. I am not complaining at all.. I will be completely honest, I have no idea what movie we were watching or what even happened in the movie. Sio and I were talking through out the whole movie. Did I mention before that I had and still have feelings for Sio? Well, I think I should mention that. We had been talking for a while and we hung out a couple times before... Sio left and soon after we left to come back to Cedar.
Friday November 11th Maryna and I made our way up to Salt Lake. I spent the weekend with my family and I enjoyed it very much! I went to a good friends mission farewell, I am so proud of him for making the choice to go on a mission. I know that he will be a great missionary. On Sunday November 13th Maryna and I made our way back down to Cedar. On Monday November 14 I called Great Clips to let them know that I have my license, I am still waiting to hear back from them. On Tuesday November 15th I went to Iinstitute, lets just say that I love Institute and I love the lessons that I learn from going. On Wednesday the 16th I woke up feeling so sick. Every time I stood up I would feel like throwing up and my throat hurt. I got ready for work and when I got there I came right back home. I got into bed at 10:30 a.m woke up and 12:30 p.m warmed up Chicken Noodle Soup, ate maybe a little more than half, got back into bed at 1:00 p.m and woke up again at 5:00 p.m. I slept all day, after sleeping all day I felt a little better. Thursday the 17th my boss told me to stay home and get some rest, so I stayed home and rested up. I got one of my homework assignments done.
Friday November 18th, yesterday, I went to work and came home. I got ready to go out for ice cream with a boy named Dillan, in my Institute class. I had a good time eating ice cream and talking with him. He is a good kid, an attractive kid, and a kid I might possibly like. When I got home my roommates and I went bowling 80's style. We had so much fun! We needed a night like last night. After bowling Maryna, Rachel and I went to Applebee's and met up with some boys from our ward. At Applebee's we also had a good time. Today, Saturday November 19th, I have not done anything really. I have been a "Lazy Bum on the Log." Ha ha quote the movie... I have been lazy and I have to go to work at 4:00. I hope it is slow so I can come home and be lazy some more. Being sick just takes it out of ya. I am so excited for the rest of the weekend's/ week's plans. Sunday- Go to my own ward, and go to Sio's ward. Monday- I have the day off. Tuesday- Work and going to Institute. Wednesday- Work and hopefully see Sio. Thursday- Maybe see Sio again, going to Grandma Twitchell's house for Thanksgiving, and NO WORK! Friday- Spend time with family. Saturday- More time with family. Sunday- Come home. It is going to be great! I am looking forward to enjoying the rest of the weekend and the start of a new week full of Thanks, and Family! May we all remember at this time of Thanks that we are so blessed. I know that I have been given so much and I am so grateful. This Thanksgiving is a tremendous gift, a gift to have family together and enjoy their company. :D

Oh, the wonderful gifts.

Where do I begin? Tuesday November 1st I went to Institute and I my friend Dillan gave me his number, we are possibly going to go mudding. I am very excited, that's where some fun will be. I love going to Institute, the lessons are wonderful, that itself is a gift.
Wednesday night Keith invited me over to his house to watch a movie, What Happens in Vegas is such a cute movie. I enjoyed it! Keith and I cuddled, I don't think that we will be watching a movie again. Not sitting next to each other that is. He is a really nice guy, but being alone with him set it all. After I came home and Maryna and I went and got food, ah! It was delicious but way too late to be eating the food we got.
Thursday was a pretty boring night, I stayed  home and didn't do much. It's nice sometimes to just sit and relax.
Friday night, last night, THE BEST all week!! After I got off of work I was feeling a movie night, so I texted Trevor and asked him if he and Riley would want to come over and watch a movie, he wasn't able to so I then planned on it being just me and my roommates. We went to Redbox rented Red Riding Hood, and Rio, after we went to Wendy's, mmm, I love me some Apple Pecan Chicken Salad. We came back and I started eating, my phone started to ring and it was Alex Wall,our Resident Assistant. She was wondering if I wanted to go to the basketball game, I asked her who all is going and I was pleased with her answer. Gentry, Seth, Matt and other people. I heard Seth and I said "Let me finish eating and get some makeup on." I went only to see Seth, well I saw him, just as I remember, VERY good looking! While we were at the game Alex leaned over to me and told me that I should talk to him. I didn't know what to say to him so I kept to myself. A few minutes later Seth came up to me and asked me if I wanted to go get some food with him. I said sure, so we went out and he bought me water and M&M's. It was nice to talk with him alone for the maybe five minutes we were alone. When we went back in I sat next to him, I really like him. While sitting next to him we made small talk, and then I had to go. =| Maryna told me that Riley was coming over to talk to me because he thinks I am cute. Here we go again, she is trying to set me up with a boy that she rejected. Well I really don't like Riley like that and I don't have a desire to either, yes I know, I am rude. I left the game and came back, I had a brilliant idea that I would invite Seth over to watch a movie, but the plan was ruined when there was a party going on. I thought we would go to that, well we did and now I am kicking myself. Oh well, things happen for a reason, right? Right... I am waiting for something to happen, big or little, maybe even a sign, but I think I am waiting for something that is never going to happen. These are the gifts that I am blessed with, meeting guys and getting closer to the eternal companion that one day I will find. These little gifts are preparing me for the future, for MY future. One day, one of these boys that is a gift will work out...

Halloween Fun!

Well! You guessed it, it's that time again and there is a new boy. :) On Friday my roommates and I went to our Stake Halloween party. Sara and Maryna stayed for the food and then left. Rachel and I stayed for it all. I had so much FUN!! I started the day off with going to work, we had a party! I made a chocolate chip pie for that and it was so delicious! After work I came home to do homework and then I got ready for the party. My costume is very simple and easy, but I still needed to look good. After we all went and had some food, after the food we walked around and looked at the trunks that were decorated for Halloween. Then there was the costume contest. I didn't participate in that, my costume is too simple so I wouldn't have won. Ha ha ha, it was fun to see all the interesting ideas that people came up with. Then the dance started! This was the best part of the night, well sort of. Rachel and I started dancing the night away. As people were coming and going I saw this guy dressed in all green with leaves, I thought he was supposed to  be poison ivy, but he explained it to me and he was not poison ivy. As he at one point walked passed me I randomly asked him what his costume was and he then told me. His roommate was Edward Scissor Hands and he was Edward's bush. Ha ha I felt funny thinking he was posion ivy when he was a bush to be cut. We then introduced our selves, stood there chit chatting and he told me that he and his roommates like to party and that sometime we should join them, so I gave him my number and we parted. Rachel and I continued dancing the night away. I danced with a boy named James, James, and another boy, but I don't remember his name. Towards the end of the dance I got a text from a number I didn't know. This random number asked me if I went to the Howl, SUU's Halloween dance. I replied to this number and told them I did not go and asked who this person was. I got a reply and it was Keith "the bush." He asked Rachel and I if we wanted to watch a movie with him and his roommates. Of course I said yes! Rachel and I hurried home, changed, and then left to go watch a movie. We got to Keith's house and I saw a dog in the window, I get nervouse about dogs sometimes, we walked in the door and his dog, Remmy, walked right up to me and was just so friendly! Another dog walked up to us and it was a puppy, Maverik, he was almost as cute and my sister's puppy. We made our way to the couch, sat and just started getting to know them a little better. The movie that we watched was I am Legend. I hadn't seen it before, it was a good movie, but it was a little odd, I thought. During the movie my new friend Keith pulled out his phone, I was totally cool with it. Little did I know, he was texting me. He told me that I should sit by him. I felt really bad after we left because I didn't look at my phone until I got home. Awh! I would have loved to sit next to him. When we first got there I was really hot, but towards the end of the movie I was freezing cold and clenching a pillow trying to keep warm. He then told us that there were blankets on the couch for us, if we were cold. I couldn't resist, I was freezing! He laughed at me. After the movie Rachel and I came home, I read Keith's text and I told him that next time for sure I was going to sit by him, and maybe he would keep me warm and not the pillow. I think about it now and I feel so stupid for saying that, but oh well. It is done and over with.
On Saturday I didn't really do anything fun, I slept in, went shopping, watched a movie, and then went to work. Nothing too big. As an apartment we decided to have a party on Sunday night for Halloween.
Sunday came and I made Chocolate Chip Pie, and Caramel. I made the caramel just a little too early, but it was so so so DELICIOUS!! We were supposed to dip apples into the caramel, but we ended up just dipping cut up apples into the caramel. Lucky me, I sliced my thumb trying to cut up apples. It was very interesting and I figured it would happen sooner or later. We had a lot of people over, it was more fun that way. We had Maryna, Steve, Sara, Rachel, T.J, Melissa, Alex, Gentry, Matt, Jared, and myself. I invited Keith but he couldn 't come... Oh well, next time for sure! Even without Keith we had quite the crowd, a great crowd. I had a great time!
Yesterday for Halloween my work celebrated, and when I say celebrated I don't say that lightly. A while ago I asked Josh if he would like to go with me to the party, he said yes. I told him that we were going to be Cowboy and Cowgirl, it worked out really well, I think. At the party we ate and danced it up. I had a really good time, I hope Josh did as well. My feelings for Josh have kind of dwindled, I started liking Keith, and now I kind of like this kid named Trevor. Last night after my work party Maryna invited her friend Riley and his roommate Trevor over. Well you guessed it, she wanted me to flirt it up with Riley but again, I went for the roommate Trevor. I had invited Keith over thinking that he wouldn't come, as I was chitting it up with Trevor, Keith called me and told me he was here. SUPRISE! I walked in our house with Keith and Trevors face was just a little hard to look at, I felt really bad. I think I blew it with Trevor, I told Maryna to ask Riley for me, for Trevor's number. We will see what happens. Halloween was good this year, it has come and it has gone, good times and some bad times. There are so many things going through my mind right now that I just want to fall asleep again. I know that this is a gift in one way or another, even though I don't see it right now, maybe in due time I will find the gift in it all.

Stake Halloween Party--

Chocolate Chip Pie and Caramel--

Josh and I for the work party--

Sugar and spice but not so nice.

One whole week and it's been pretty good, very interesting, and somewhat bad. I left to go to my home in the big 801 last Wednesday, October 19th. I had a great time with my family and with my friends! When I got home my sister and I went to a football game, it was so weird being back at a high school football game. I enjoyed it though, seeing the new field and spending time with Angie. We went to the football game for and hour an then went home so my Mama Sharen, Papa Chris, Angie and I could go and get ice cream. After we ate our ice cream I went on a date with a boy I went to elementary with, I haven't seen him for such a long time. It was nice to go bowling with him and catch up. Thursday morning my mom and I went shopping and I got some cds and a shirt for my Halloween costume. I am very excited for Halloween, it is going to be tons of fun. Thursday night I went to Monroe Elementary and met up with another friend who I haven't seen since graduation. He is a nice kid, he makes me laugh. Friday I did Mama Sharen's hair, I went to dinner with one of my bestest friends, and had a movie night with some of my other bestest friends. I had a great time! Saturday my family and I went to Cascade Springs to take family pictures. Oh my, the memories we make as a family, I wouldn't trade them for anything. Sunday as usual we had our family dinner, mmm! I love Sunday dinners and I miss them very much! Monday I drove back to my home to the big 435. I wish I could have stayed in the big 801. I thought drama was for high school students, not grown up college students. There is a whole long story that goes along with that. The simple version is, T.j, I'm pretty sure you've read of him before, well! He is ignoring me because he is trying to move on because I don't like him like that. There are still somethings that I am confused about, but oh well, I have other things on my mind and I need to focus on them, not the drama. Yesterday I had an interview and Great Clips. I went in for the interview, it went really well, they want me to go back tonight and demonstrate a hair cut for them. I am a little nervous, but it is kind of like state boards all over again. After the interview I went into work, lets just say that I had been out of routine for a little bit and needed to get back into it. This morning I woke up to snow... WHAT!? It's only October 26th and there it is, that white fluffly, floofy, cold stuff. Oh well, I guess I better start enjoying it right. There is more to come I am sure and it's probably going to get worse... Oh well, today is a gift and I need to just get over the bad, realize and think about the good. I love life and I couldn't ask for it any other way.

Family Pictures-

The Late Night Bite :)

It surely has been a great four days since I've last updated. It seems to be that I update late at night and usually finish in the morning. Well tonight I've got a lot to dish out so we'll get started! Wednesday night, October 12th, was a big change for me. I had time to sit and relax and I didn't have to do anything. It was really nice! Thursday night, talk about great night! I texted Seth earlier that morning asking if he has to work on Halloween. I never got a reply. I got off of work an hour early so I went home and made "Peanutty Gooey Bars," but I call them "Gooey Bars," because Maryna and I were trying to invite people over and have a movie night. After I made my Gooey Bars Maryna decided she wanted pizza for dinner, so we went out and got some pizza, and Steve joined us. After dinner and after watching a movie, Steve, Maryna, and I made our way out to Three Peaks where a bonfire was created. It was the first bonfire that I have ever been to. I saw one of my good friends, Shaylee, from Evan's there. I miss her and all of my other Evan's girls like crazy! At the bonfire I met a couple of new people and talked with friends. I chit chatted with Gentry, Seth's younger brother, and I said that we should do a movie night on Friday. He said that he couldn't because he had a date and I should get a boy and join him. I told him that there wasn't a boy for me to get and he then asked me who I was "crushing" on. A little embarrassed I told him that Maryna could tell him, so she did. She told him that I am "crushing" on his older brother Seth. He looked at me and said that he would do his best to get Seth to join him. Friday I waited all day to hear from one of them, Gentry or Seth, but never did, so I stayed home and made lemon asparagus chicken. Mmm! It was delicious, minus the fact of a little too much lemon. Saturday night after I got a text from Josh Dettamanti. I met him a while ago and I've seen him once since I met him and then again at the bonfire and that's when I got his number. So he texted me and asked me what I was doing for the night. I texted him back but never got a reply until this morning, Sunday. We had a nice conversation, but then we both went to church and stopped texting. After church I came home and I got a text from my Seth. He finally texted me back, after waiting all weekend!! I was very happy to get a text from him, I then asked him if he didn't have to work if he would want to go to a Halloween party, and I am still waiting to hear if he can or not. He told me that we would have to go on a horse ride... I am so excited he asked, but I'm kind of nervous. Tonight I invited Josh and Getnry over for "pigs in a blanket" and Dispicable Me. Gentry couldn't make it but Josh and his friend Brian came over. We had a good time! Josh helped me with my Geology homework and we talked for quite a long time. After talking with Josh and getting to know him, I am starting to like him as well. I've been told that guys will come and go, but I am not to sure I like them coming all at the same time... I really like Seth, but now I am starting to really like Josh. Ha ha I guess I shouldn't complain. We will just have to see how everything works out. Today has been a really good day! I found out great news and had a great time tonight with friends! I love the little gifts that I find in each day that I breathe. Even though I am a poor, starving, single, college student, I LOVE MY LIFE! As Edwin McCain says "These are the moments I know all I need is this I have all I've waited for and I could not ask for more." Perfect! :)

My oh my!

Well, it surely has been a while since the birthday fun! I really don't know where to begin, Monday October 3rd sounds like a great place to start...
Monday October 3rd- I still really liked Kelso at this time so I decided I would ask him if he had plans for lunch and I would make him lunch. So I texted him and he said that he didn't have plans but he would be in a lab until 3. I told him that I would make him lunch and that is exactly what I did. I made him Easy Chicken and Cheese Enchilada's, I feel that I did a great job in making them. He told me he would come over to eat before he went to work, Maryna, my roommate, told me that Tj was coming over to study with her. I was a little worried of how that would work out, knowing that he liked me. I started making the enchilada's and Tj came over, I was polite and said "Hi." Kelso came over, it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, but I think it made Tj mad. Later that night Kelso and I went on a walk, a long conversation and holding his hand I realized that I didn't like him as much as I thought I did. I still like him as a friend though, he held my hand and I just didn't feel a connection, I didn't want it. On Thursday I went on a date with Kelso, we went bowling, had hot chocolate and roasted marshmallows. I had a good time, it was fun and I enjoyed the time with Kelso and the other four that went with us. While we were drinking hot chocolate and roasting mallows Kelso put his hand out like he was waiting for me to hold it. I kept to myself and put my hands in my pockets the whole time. He then brought me home and I gave him one hug and kept my head down until after I was safe enough to look up so he wouldn't try kissing me. Friday I went on a date with Tj, I had some fun.. He picked me up and we drove up Cedar Canyon to Duck Creek. It is a very small but cute little town. We ate pizza and when we were finished we drove back down the canyon and took a walk. While on a walk he grabbed my hand and held it. I failed, the whole time we were walking I did my best to keep my hands in my pockets, yeah! The only time I put my hands down he went in for the kill. I didn't want to hold his hand but after he tried so hard I decided I would be nice and hold his hand. Saturday after I got off I asked my roommate Natalie for a boy's number. I texted Riley, the boy's number I got, and told him that I thought he was nice and a cute kid. There is a whole long story with him that doesn't matter. We will just say that he really likes Natalie, Natalie "SAYS" that she isn't interested in him. Later that night Tj texted me after I got off of work and asked me how my day was. I gave him the short one answer questions and he called me out on it. He asked me if I was okay and that my replies were short. I felt like being a snot and said "I'm fine, just tired." So I think he's getting the hint, I do not like him like that. I love Sundays!! I went to the fireside Sunday night, I went by myself, met a new friend Aryanne, and guess who was there... Kelso! He came and asked if he could sit by me, I wasn't going to be rude so I said sure. During the fireside I made a little scavanger hunt for him. On his phone he has the scriptures, so I went through and marked my favorite scriptures. He asked me where all of these scriptures were and I simply said "I guess you'll have to read your scriptures." I started giggling because I thought it was funny. Later that night Tj texted me and asked me if I wanted to do something. I told him no because I was in the process of making plans that didn't include him. I had asked Riley if he wanted to hang out, that whole situation backed fired and bit me right in the butt. I had made cookies and after what happened with Riley, I started eating all of my cookies. I decieded I needed to get out of the apartment, so I took a walk. I love taking walks around campus, I am sad that it is getting cold so I won't be able to do it very much. Monday October 10th I went to FHE, man! When we have stake FHE I love it!! I know this guy named Jared and after we came back and got jackets we went back and sat by him. He is from Vegas and is a very nice guy. While we were chatting another guy came and sat by Jared. This guy that came and sat by Jared, well! I think I want him for my husband!! His name is Seth, he is from right here in Cedar, and he is an absolutely attractive guy! He is very, very cute! As we were talking, Maryna, Seth, Jared and I, a couple of Seth's friends came over and asked if he was going to work the next day or not. He said no and told him that he was feeling the cabin. He invited me and Maryna and Jared to go up to his cabin to roast mallow's and just hang out. Jared said he would go if Maryna and I would go. You guessed it, I couldn't pass up the offer, Maryna, Sara, and I piled into my car and we headed over to Seth's house to hop in with him and his friends to go up to his cabin. Seth being a good lookin' guy has a younger brother that is good lookin' too! When we got up to the cabin Seth started a fire and the night went on. It was so nice to get out of the apartment and do something fun! It was even better getting out of the service range and not having to worry about anything for the little amount of time that we were there. I had so much fun! I am hoping to find a way to get to know both Seth and his little brother better. How I'm going to do that? I have some ideas. :) Last night, Tuesday, Maryna and her, I'm going to call him her boyfriend, boyfriend Steve, Sara, and I went up to Steve's step-mom's cabin and met up with Courtney, Steve's step-brother, and Sio, Steve's good friend. It was fun, we went fishing, had dinner, and watched a movie. Courtney caught a fish and I held it. That was very suprising, I would never usually do that. I then caught a fish, it was bigger than Courtney's! I held it and it started flapping everywhere and I dropped it. It made me sad that I had dropped my prize. Ha ha but, I did get a picture! I am now sitting here needing to get ready for work. I have had my eyes opened up to see that everyday is a gift. In one way or another, the past couple of weeks have been rough but, I have seen the gifts that come with it. I love my life and I am so happy to be where I am at now. I am sure that there will be a spur of the moment gathering tonight with boys or friends or with roommates. Next time I am sure I will have more stories... :)
P.S My picture with my fish will be up soon...

A Birthday and a Graduation in the same week. Talk about CELEBRATION!!

I have had one of the best birtdays that I could ask for. My roommates and I celebrated all weekend and into the whole next week. Friday September 23rd we kicked the weekend off by going to dinner at The Pizza Factory, walking around Walmart, and inviting Maryna's "crush" Rhett and his roommates over for cookie brownies and a movie. They came over and we watched I Am Number 4. Saturday September 24th I had to work so we didn't really do a lot. I came home to a birthday attacked apartment, and then we watched Pearl Harbor. Sunday September 25th my roommates made me dinner! It was yummy! After we had dinner we made our way to a fireside and invited people over to have ice cream cake that they had bought for my birthday. Rhett and his two roommates, Denton and Kelso, came with him. My cousin Bryce and his roommate came. Our RA and friend Kelsey came as well. We had quite the house full. Monday there wasn't too much celebrating, but Tuesday on my actual birthday the celebrating continued. I went to school and my friends made it such a special day. I couldn't even imagine it without them. I came home and went to dinner with my roommate Natalie, I went to institute, went to get ice cream with Bryce, and when I came home Maryna, Sarah and Natalie were here with two boys, Steve and T.J, and cupcakes. They sang happy birthday to me again and we ate cupcakes. Steve and T.J left and then came back to watch The Office. On Wednesday we had a The Office marathon. Me and my roommates were here, Natalie invited a boy named Riliey, Maryna invited Rhett, Kelso, and Brennan, Steve and T.J. Again we had quite the crowd. We all had a good time. Thursday after school I came home and did two haircuts, Bryce's roommate, and Kelso's. As I was finishing with Kelso's hair I asked him if there was anything else I could do for him and he said "Yeah, when are we going on a date?" I told him I was free next week, so now Kelso and I are going on a date. :) I went on a date with T.J and we doubled with Steve and Natalie. It was fun! We went bowling and got frozen yogurt. Mmm. Friday was the day I graduated from Evan's Hairstyling college. It was a bitter-sweet day. It was also an emotional day. I was doing a weave and I felt a tap on my shoulder and I turned and there was Kelso standing with flowers!! Awh, I am guessing I was very red in the face. I didn't know what to do, I was shaking, shaking pretty bad. They were very pretty flowers. Later that night my roommate Rachel and I had a movie night and T.J came over. We watched Prom and Thor. I am going to have to watch Thor again. I kind of fell asleep. It has really been a great weekend, week, and a start of another weekend.
