Birthday Festivities!

My birthday was on April 7th, and can I just say I have the greatest friends?
Well I do!
At midnight Steph blindfolded me and took me on a drive until I had NO idea where we were. When we finally got out of the car we walked inside somewhere and I could not figure out where it was!
Once she took off the blindfold a bunch of my close friends started singing happy birthday. They even had a cake with candles! It was so sweet of them! We all stayed and chatted for a bit, and then went home to get some sleep.

After I slept in, I went to lunch with  my parents. They took me to one of my favorites...Red Lobster. After my delicious lunch, my Mom took me to the mall to pick out a new shirt for the night. My parents are the greatest:)

That night Steph picked me up at 6:30 and we met at Palomas. We then ventured down to Wingers where some of my closest friends were waiting with balloons! We had a yummy dinner and then went back to Carolines to play games and watch a movie!

I am so grateful for my thoughtful friends!!



I have completely been lacking on the whole picture taking thing lately....but here is one that Teal managed to capture!!:)

I Really Hate Goodbyes...

This weekend I had to say goodbye to one of my best friends...
Miss Samantha Brooke Warner.
She moved to San Fransisco on Saturday to nanny for a year a half.

We had a perfect last week together, and I saw her pretty much everyday. We did so many fun activities that maybe I will blog about later.

As for now now I just want everyone to know how much I love my Sammy girl.
Over the last year we have grown to be so close. We've been through lots together and I can honestly say she is one of the strongest people that I know.
She is my go-to girl when I need ANYTHING. She's the best at giving pep talks and helping me in all sorts of ways. Going on long drives with her and just jamming out is one of the greatest things ever. I am definitely better because of her. She has a light about her that everyone can see, and she never ceases to amaze me. Words can't tell you how much I will miss her, but this is going to be such a good experience and I am so excited for her!....I love you so much Sam, you are the best!!

 Bowling night!

At her going away party


We just love her



Saying goodbye....SO sad:(

The dreadful.

If you were wondering if I hate job hunting....

I DO.


Took my resume into a million (really like 5) places today. Most of which weren't even hiring, but I left it with them anyway.
 I plan on doing the same exact thing tomorrow hoping that someday someone, at one of the billions of places I go, will hire me.

Please someone put me out of my misery.



Weekend Diaries

Saturday:

Slept in.

Dad took me on a date to lunch, the movie This Means War, and Farrs for ice cream.



That night I went to a roller derby with myf riends. So entertaining.




We then decided to go to the foam party...it was totally worth waiting in the huge line freezing our bums off, and paying ten dollars.

Sunday:

Went to two farewells.

Celebrated St. Aj's day.



Had a girls night and made a time capsule predicting our lives for the next 5 years.



It was a pretty darn great weekend if ask me.

Here We Go

OH BOY.
I've been tagged.
Thanks to my lovely sister Shayli.


THE RULES:
-Post these rules
-Post a photo and eleven random things about yourself
-Answer the questions provided by the one who tagged you
-Create eleven new questions for the people you tag
-Contact those you choose and let them know they've been tagged




11 Random Facts:

1) I can sleep unnatural amounts. Its seriously ridiculous, but wonderful all at the same time.


2) I am addicted to a billion T.V. series. Literally addicted. Please don't tell me to start watching a series because I won't be able to stop.

3) I am a die hard animal lover. The older I get the more I seem to love them, and honestly I would have a dozen if I could. Call me the crazy animal lady...I can't help myself.

4) In 5th grade I was 5'2". Today I am still 5'2". I haven't grown an inch in 8 years.

5) I absolutely love to be out in the sunshine. I could lay out all day everday. Vitamin D and I get along very well.

6) I love having my arm/back/anything tickled. If you are sitting next to me be prepared to have my arm flung at you (i'm convinced it's my natural reflex). All of my friends HATE that I do this, but some of them are still little gems, meaning I can usually convince them to help a girl out;)

7) I love the foamy flouride they give you at the dentist.

8) I paint my nails a different color almost every day. Its sort of out of control.

9) I love music and I am constantly finding new songs and artists to listen to


10) I love to travel, and if my budget allowed, I would be somewhere new every other week.

11) I don't like water. Yes I know i'm crazy right? Don't get me wrong if i'm out in the hot sun or working out it's wonderful, but on most other occasions I would prefer almost anything to water. Propel water on the other hand, is the greatest invention ever.

The Questions:
1. What movie star do you fantasize about? (we all have one)
Well I don't think Ryan Sheckler counts as a movie star...so I would probably have to say Ryan Gosling, he's wonderful.

2. How many kids do you want to have?
3 or 4 probably. Unless I decide to adopt and then 5 would be my limit.

3. What soundtrack would be the theme song for your life?
This one is a hard one...maybe And Run by He Is We.

4. Chick flicks or horror movies?
I really love them both. They are tied. I would choose either one depending on my mood.

5. What is your dream car?
The Mercedes-Benz G Class. It's beautiful. Or a Range Rover. I would take either one in a heart beat.

6. Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
Hopefully married. Being done or almost done with school, and maybe I will have a kid by then.

7. Dogs or Cats?
I told you I am an animal lover of all sorts, but dogs all the way. Many of you know I am obsessed with my dog. They are the best animal there is.

8. If you were stranded on a deserted island and could have one person and one object with you who/what would you choose
Since I do not have a significant other, I would be happy to bring along any one of my best friends or family members who would be willing to be stranded with me and keep me laughing and entertained. As for an object...maybe a tooth brush. The thought of not being able to brush my teeth gives me nightmares.

9. What body part in a man are you most attracted to?
Eyes, teeth, and abs. All of those are good.

10. If you could only have one more treat the rest of your life what would it be?
Chocolate chip cookies are my favorite and when you combine them with ice cream its even better....so probably a pazookie?

Goodbye Alcatraz!

My LONG journey is over.
I finally finished my medical assisting externship, or Alcatraz as Shayli Johnst calls it, and I am so happy! It's the last thing I had to complete after all the class work and pass offs (which took forever), to finally get my Medical Assisting certificate.
Now I just have to find a job....easier said than done. If anyone knows of any Doctor's offices that are hiring let me know:)
It will be nice to finally be getting paid for working instead of just slaving away. Don't get me wrong, I really did enjoy it.
The Doctor's office I did my externship at was too good! I loved the people there. We got along so well and they were so kind and patient in teaching me everything I needed to know, even when I made mistakes (and I made plenty of them). I absolutely loved it, and I will be missing them all dearly. I already do.
 Working with Pediatrics, especially the newborn babies, was so much fun and I am so glad I got that opportunity.


So here's to my third, and hopefully not last, medical milestone, becoming a Medical Assistant! Woot Woot!

...Seriously that 7-Up I am drinking is soo good. Diet mixed berry. It's a "limited time only" flavor, and I feel that the"limited time" is up. The Doctor had a case of it in the fridge and that seems to be the only place I can find it. So, if you ever happen to stumble across it 1)Taste it.  2) Inform me of where you found it.
