yes, that really happened...

Alright, so telling this story to everyone (aka the 2 people that read this blog) is hard for me, but here it goes. 

It was summer time and I was heading up to SLC with two of my friends (John and Shalice) to see Wyatt race his go cart.  We didn't make it all the way up there because we thought that the South Town Mall would be more interesting. 

We were just hanging out, waisting time and having fun. For some (stupid) reason John decided to run up the down escalator... so of course Shalice follows him.. and I wasn't going to stand at the bottom like a loser - so I decided to follow. Once I got to the top where you have to get off the stairs.. well I don't really know what happened then other than I ended up falling. AH! It was so bad. So I was ready to die from embarrassment, but I had to get back up! So I stand up and try again and I fell AGAIN. 

Worst day ever.

So at that point I was a little humiliated, so I just rode it back down. John and Shalice were laughing so hard.. wow just relived that a little and it was awful! Ha ha well then I notice that my leg is completely covered in blood and scratches from the escalator step.. great right?  Well it gets better. 

After I got out of the bathroom from cleaning off my bloody leg! I ran into these people that felt the need to stop me to say how funny I am... Really?! Oh my.. Then the mom told me that I made her daughter laugh so hard. Well at least I made someone happy! 

And that my friends, is my most embarrassing story ever! I still have the scars on my leg to prove that it really happened and I'm not making up some ridiculous story :)

NEVER AGAIN will I attempt that. Bottom Line.

Dear________,

I am so happy that I know you. You changed my life when I met you that day.

Who would have thought that after all of this we would still be friends? I look up to you for the person that you are, and the person that you are becoming. I know that you're not perfect, and I love that you have stood by my side even though I'm not perfect.

I've never had a friend that has been there for me through the good and the bad.. and the really, really bad, but I guess if I'm bringing up the really, really bad- I can bring up the really, really good. 

Sometimes I wonder why you still put up with me! And other days I wonder why I put up with you!!

I think you are the person that knows me best, and I like to think that I know you pretty well too. I've never had a person in my life that I trust so much, I can tell them anything, things I really don't want to admit to myself. You have never judged me, you have always had my back and just when I think that I have no one to turn to its like you sense it and help me through whatever is going on. 

That all doesn't come close to explaining how I know that you are my real friend- actually I don't consider you my friend, I consider you my family. You always will be my family too, no matter where our lives take us. 

I love you, and just having you in my life lets me know how blessed I am.

This one's for Jenn

Ok so I have this problem where I carry my whole life around in my purse.. So today was an interesting one. My bag usually weighs like 7 pounds.. on a light day! haha this picture should speak for itself-

Holy crap- how do I make my picture not sideways?! I've spent like half an hour on it! So sorry that I'm not computer savvy enough to figure it out- hope you can still read it.
Anyway, usually i have a can of diet coke, and my phone and my camera, and sometimes more (by sometimes I mean almost always.. it seems to be kinda clean today.. I wonder why:)?)

Really?

Alright, I've been thinking about this for a good 20 minutes and I can't come up with anything I'm OCD about.
So I'm changing it to my pet peeves.
1- people that chew with their mouths open.. hello! I have a class full of 3-4 year old preschoolers and they know how to eat like humans.
2- this one is vague, but people who are fake..  BUG. Ok guys you may have people fooled until they know you for longer than a week, but most of the time you can't keep up your double life much longer than that. Get over yourself, no one likes you more by being a complete fake loser.
haha I sound like a jerk.. but they are just things that bug k:)
3- this will be my last one.. maybe I'm just venting a little today, I just don't know, but people that think they are better than other people. rude.
Let me just tell you that your not better than them.. bottom line.

Well thats what I hate about the world today. I'm not perfect either.. just throwing that out there:)

On a lighter note please tell me you all are keeping up on American Idol.. best season ever (I say that every year.. but still)!

Day 11

What I ate today... here it is short and sweet.

Only mine wasn't this cute.. Hula Mocha for breakfast.. yum.

 I wasn't sure about these until I tried them, but they are delicious!

 This is the best ever. Bottom Line.

and dinner- that's my day in food.

And it's a tie for first!

This one was hard! I decided that there was a tie for my faves. Here are Lifehouse and Daughtry. Why are they my favorites? Well I've liked Lifehouse from the beginning.. remember how forever ago they put out "you and me"? Well they still rock my world... Check out Broken (above) because I love it.. pretty sure it has been about my life before!

Now Daughtry.. WOW.. Love me some Chris Daughtry. I've always been a big American Idol fan, and when he got voted off early I remember yelling at the T.V.- yelling alot:) Well all is ok now, because Daughtry is out there making awesome songs. 

love.him.  

What is really the best part of this story is I got to see both of them live.. at the same freaking time!! Wahoo!!! best concert ever.. bottom line!

Staci and I at the concert!

 Our seats may have been clear in the butt at the top.. but I wouldn't trade it for ANYTHING! So great!!

A dream is a wish, your heart makes..

Alright, to be honest I haven't ever really thought of my dream house, so I turned to trusty google.. typical right? Well I saw this house and thought it was gorgeous! Yes I would be a happy woman if I ended up here.

 However after looking at this picture I decided That living here (in the picture below) would be wonderful! I'll take the man too:)
I've always said living in NYC would be my dream come true, but I would love, love to live in North Carolina. I think its so beautiful there! One day maybe I'll be able to.
