New Years Resolutions

Here are my new years resolutions for this year!

• To lose weight (I actually have a good plan of attack this year)


• To get back to school (I REALLYYYY want to get back to school)


• To make more friends (just not to many)


• To confess to the guy I like (He knows i have strong feelings for him but I haven't been very specific I'm hoping that will change this year)


• Start playing an instrument (either cello, or the piano or both!)


• To keep my room cleaner (haha I'm so bad at this)


• To get better at math and science (I don't think it will happen this year but it's nice to have this resolution anyway!)

I'm not going to make many more resolutions than that. I don't want to overdue things.

I can't believe that it is the new year already! Even more I can't believe it's January 3rd already! I think my time flys by way to fast for my liking.

Nothing much has happened since new years. My family and I are just back to our regular thing. We all are usually either at work or busy with other family stuff. We spend time together sometimes though. Like yesterday we watched Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince yesterday together. I was in and out watching it though.

I forgot to post my entry for yesterday. I did write it out but never put it on here. I'll do that in a few minutes.

I don't know what this year will hold but I hope it's something amazing! :)

Sunday Snow and Ice

Wow so it's already January 2nd it doesn't even feel like it really it still feels like it's December to me.  The snow has been around for quite a while now. it snowed a few days ago again, around new years eve I think. The snow melted a little over the days but at night it get's really cold here so that wet snow turned into ice and how our sidewalks are covered not only in snow but now in ice. I just about tripped when I was walking down the porch steps on my way to church it was so icy and slick.

I was up really early today, I could not sleep and woke up at around 6:14am much to my annoyance. I just decided to not fight it and just go along with it after trying to go back to sleep for about 15 or 20 minutes. I decided to just listen to some music so I plugged my headphones into my ipod and turned on pandora and just lied there just listening to music for about 45 minutes or so while I was thinking about random stuff.

After about 45 minutes I decided to just turn on my computer and go to pandora there instead. the headphones I have plugged into my computer are better quality than the ones I have for my iphone. Plus there was a song I wanted to look up on youtube so I could listen to it again "Desperate by Fireflight". I love that song a lot it's so addicting.  I got on facebook at this time as well and checked a few of my friends profiles and did some other stuff. I also logged into Destiny Online and said hi to some of my friends. Things were pretty much like this until about 9am when I decided to wash my hair.

I always wash my hair every sunday morning before church, otherwise it looks strange. I usually do not blow dry it except for on sunday, I don't really like blowdrying very much. It drys funny sometimes, so I make sundays an exception to this.

We have this thing called fast sunday every month in my church, it basicly where we don't eat anything for most of the day or all day.  I was feeling a little sick though so I just decided to skip it this time and I ate something.

I went back to what I was doing before after this.

Anyway, so back to where I was at the beginning. When I left for church around half past noon the sidewalks were prettty icy. i had to be really careful, and almost slipped once or twice on the way to the car.  I gota  ride to church with my mom.

I don't remember what we talked about in church sadly, in either of my sunday school classes it's really fuzzy. I did notice however that Darik and Dylan went to the other class earlier instead of the one I go to. They usually go to the one I go to. I used to go to the other one (there are 2 gospel doctrine classes in our 2nd hour of church). I started going to the one that our relief society meetings are in though, because it's just easier for me to get a good seat.  I thought Darik and Dylan weren't there , they just went to the other class though I did not realize this until the beginning of sacrament meeting though. I talked to Darik a little before sacrament meeting and showed various people my newly dyed hair.

I bore my testimony in church again this month. Every month we have a fast and testimony meeting where people can go up and tell about spiritual experiences and express to everyone spiritual feelings.  I went up and shared some experiences from my past. I seem to have a good habit going now. This is the 3rd month in a row where I have gone up.

Anyway after church I just talked to a  few people about the previous week and some other stuff then I went home. On my way home when I was leaving the church Darik and Dylan caught up to me in Darik's car (that I love so much) and offered me a ride. I was really happy about this because there was a lot of ice on the ground like I said before.

When I got home I discovered much to my surprise that my mom had made soup (ministroni... or something I don't know how to spell it but it's super good). We had that for dinner.She also put out crackers on the counter. I grabbed a few and put them in my soup. I love sprinking cracker crumbs on my soup.

I have been working on some Asian dramas this past week and that took up most of my day today. I am watching Hana yori Dango, and Hana Kimi. I finished a drama called "you're Beautiful". a few days earlier. I'm slowly going down the list of the most popular asian dramas. I love asian dramas a lot.

Besides that I just played on Destiny, and watched Harry Potter with my family. 

Sundays are always my favorite day of the week because my family always gets to spend time together. 

Other than that just the usual was going on. Oh, and my brother got me Super Mario DS, and Diddy Kong Racing DS as well this made me very happy. I can tell I'm going to love bothof them since I loved the older versions. :)

anyway, that was my day today. :)

Happy New Year! And a Recap!

Happy New Year everyone! I hope everything goes well for everyone on Xanga! I can't believe it's new years already!

I'll give a recap of all the stuff I did not blog about during the end of the year.

Christmas week was very busy. My sister, my nephew and my brother in law came down from california to gisit us for christmas. My nephew Jax is so adorable. he is only 4 months old. i spent a lot of time around him it was fun watching him and stuff. he did spit up on me a few times though and that was not pleasant ha ha. 

Christmas week was busy, we did lot's of shopping and buying various things for Christmas. We went to Bed Bath and Beyond, Ross, Burlington coat facorty, Wallmart, the mall and many other places and bought many things it was a big adventure for all of us and all of us most certainly came home every night with tired and sore feet. I know mine were at least. It seems that the week of christmas we went to every store in the city (which i know isn't true it just seemed that way).

It was fun shopping with the family, we hardly ever get to do anything with each other so it was really nice.

My brother and my sister Linda got this huge TV for my dad to replace out really small one. We had to plan it so my dad was out shopping so we could move the big TV in the living room. It's 27 inch. My brother and my sister's husband did the moving. We had to move tales, plants, and other stuff so it could fit in the living room it was so crazy. We have a lot of plants so it was a  challenge.  it was so funny though seeing them moving all that stuff around just so they could fit a TV.

We played a lot of games, and ate a lot of pie and other great stuff. We had a lot of jellybeans as well. For some reason I kept getting a large amount of green ones.  It was a very sugary christmas. Surprisingly I did not gain any weight from it though. We always play a lot of games around the holidays it's a standard thing in my family. We usually play board games, and card games. Now that I think about it we have never played video games together for years.

Anyway, christmas and christmas eve were pretty cool. Christmas eve we just watched movies, and played games and stuff. Christmas was a bit more exciting though. I was surprised when no one was up early in the morning on christmas day. it seems that everyone except for me and my sister Laura were the only ones up before 7am.  I could not sleep at all. Everyone was up until about 3am the night before and woke up around 9 or 10am in the morning.  We made breakfast around 10am and then got everyone together and opened presents.

Everyone got a good number of presents. it took us a good 2 hours or so to open presents. A lot of boxes of chocolates were opened. We, all 12 of us probably demolished 3 whole boxes. I got some makeup, a Nintendo DS, a Fullmetal Alchemist calendar, some clothes, some books, and a movie (my neighbor Totoro). My other family members got cothes, scarfs, my mom got a new cordless phone, a purse, and some other stuff. My sister got baby clothes for Jax, a lot of presents were under the tree. We had a lot of fun opening all of them.

We made apple skeebers for lunch. They are like round pancake balls with apple sauce in the middle and you dip them in this really great cinnamon sauce. most of the rest of my day was just games and playing with all the stuff we got, like the new TV, and my DS is pretty fun as well! i played with my niece and nephew a lot that day.

I got hair dye stuff for christmas as well, I knew I was getting it though because I picked it out the day before.  I dyed my hair with ION hair color Medium red hair dye. It's sort of a really dark, purplish red. It looks really super nice though. I've never dyed my hair before. My sister did it for me. It's so nice to have a different hair color for once. It looked like a horror shop when I was washing it out though, like I was washing blood out of my hair so freaky ha ha.  I was anticipating the coloring of my hair for that whole week and I was not dissappointed with the results. I'll put pictures up later.

The rest of this week has been pretty normal after my sister left on Monday. Things went back to normal, we all started doing our own things after christmas, playing with our presents, I got my computer back, we fixed it, the holidays were amazing. I miss my nephew though a lot. He was so adorable and fun to play with.  I've been working on some new anime, and doing stuff on facebook all week and setting up my newly fixed computer.

We can play netflix and some other cool internet things on our new TV. I am working on watching LOST now. I've never watched it. I'm not very big on TV, haven't been for about 4 or 5 years now. 

new Years Eve was nothing special for the most part except for the end when we got to count down together.  I just spend the day watching Asian dramas it was fun.

Anyway, if I remember anything I left out I will edit this.

This is not my actual New Years Post by the way. This is mostly just a re-cap. I will do my actual new years post later. it's only 1am here now. I have a lot of time.

More Snow and the Fun Begins!

Okay so my sister and my nephew aren't here yet but once they are here and we all come together things are bound to get pretty interesting over the next few days. They should be here in a few hours!

I've just been doing the usual today for the most part. I could not sleep last night because I just want to meet my nephew so bad.  I did fall asleep on the couch earlier today though and got a few more hours of sleep.  The cat decided to take a nap with me, that was cute.  She curled up on my chest. I had a pillow covering my legs so she couldn't shed on my black pants again. She managed to do it anyway while i was sleeping though when I changed positions haha. 

The snow is so pretty today. It snowed a lot more yesterday night.  I was up until 4am, my brother and his friends were playing DOTA until about 3am or so. I had to wind down so I just decided to sacrifice one more hour of sleep so i could listen to some music so I could relax. I make it a point never to try to sleep when they are playing down here because it's really impossible. They are to noisy for me to even try.

A while after my last post yesterday, after my brother's friend got on the computer I am using right now, I spilled a bag of Cheetoes on the floor on accident. It was really sad, we saved most of the cheetoes, but I still felt bad because the bag was practically full all the way. It was a pretty new bag and I just happened to set it in the wrong position on the table and it fell ha ha.  I took a picture and put it on my twitter last night as well.

I've been thinking of this for a while now, it would be nice it Xanga had a mobile site. I love Xanga a lot and would like to blog on the go. That would be so cool if they made a mobile version, seeing as I don't like any of the other blogging sites out there except for maybe Tumblr, but even Tumblr can't compare to Xanga at all.

I don't remember if I mentioned this in my last post or not, but one of our neighbors brought over this box with a whole bunch of food in it. Amung the things was that bag of cheetoes I spilled yesterday night ha ha. There was also some cashews, some kind of chocolate snack bars, soup, and some other stuff. I always expect things to appear like this around christmas. We usually get something like this around Christmas or Thanksgiving.  I was hoping they would send us candycane cocoa again though.

Anyway, if i think up anything more to say I will edit this and update it. :)

Oh yeah, one more thing...

December Snow and Birthdays!

So today was Darik and Dylan's birthday. I have no clue what they did today other than the christmas party that Darik mentioned to me yesterday. Speaking of Darik... he got his phone stolen by some prick at the gym. Neither of us are happy about that for sure.  I sent them both a birthday text early this morning, before Darik got his phone stolen. 

Anyway, I woke up to snow (and not rain like yesterday). I was really happy about this. I woke up fairly early today. Sometime I just don't feel like sleeping in. It's nice to wake up early every once in a while.  My day started out the same as always. if you have read my posts you already probably have it memorized by now. The beginning of my day is never complete without music, facebook, and anime. I know that sounds incredibly nerdy. ha ha.  It is what I love though, so I guess there is nothing wrong with that.

I spent most of my time on facebook at first, but then went to the store a few hours later with my dad. We went to best buy and Costco and bought presents for my mom.  After that we went to subway and I got a foot long sub, and a cookie it was great.  It has been lightly snowing all day, I love it. I love how when the snow melts on my coat it looks like sparkles, it's so cool.  I have a black wool coat. 

Anyway, after that I went home, and logged into Destiny Online. I haven't played for a couple of weeks now since my computer is being fixed.  I really felt like logging on so I just downloaded it on this computer (which is one of my dad's). I've been spending most of my day on there all day just catching up with my friends and stuff. 

Other than that I took a short nap in the early afternoon.  Yeah, my day was at least moderately interesting at least...  I'm really hoping Darik get's his phone back soon, or get's a new one.

Oh, and one more thing. I got a message from Sam today. He is going to be here until the end of the month. I'm so happy about that. I' going to call him of course without a doubt.  I will have to tell you more about sam some other time. I don't think I have mentioned him as much as I have mentioned  Darik and Dylan. Even though he is the person I like. 

 

What are five things most people don't know about you?

I just answered this Featured Question; you can answer it too!

Christmas Sundays With a Little Bit of Rain!

So of all weather conditions it just had to rain today! I find that a little off. I don't mind when it rains in the spring, or the summer, or heck, even the fall but I think winter is just pushing it a little too much.  It is supposed to SNOW in the winter, not rain!

Yeah, so like I said above, when I opened the door to go to church the first thing that got my attention was the rain. I had to go back inside and grab a hat since I have no umbrella at this point of time. 

Rewinding a little, my day started out how it usually does. You have probably caught on to the fact that I spend the first part of my day the same way every day usually. I wake up, go to my computer, listen to music, check for anime updates, check facebook, and then I go eat breakfast.  After I did this I washed my hair, ate breakfast, and then blowdryed my hair, listened to music for a bit more, and then got dressed for church and then I was off! Yes, I know nothing super spactacular, but sundays are about worship over here so I don't feel any particular dislike for that today.

Today in church we talked about distractions on Sunday, and how to spend it to it's fullest.  In the 2nd part we discuss the bible, we are on Ezra right now, and some other book I forgot how to spell that is below it.  I sat by Dylan again today in this part of class. He usually sits either near me or next to me which I really like I won't lie about that.  Darik was 3 seats away from me. We have never really sat by each other before but it would be nice though! Surprisingly I was not thinking about Dylan, well I was sort of but I was thinking about the lesson and about Sam a lot more at that point in time. I managed to sneak a picture of dylan during class. I don't think he noticed I took it ha ha. I did it just for amusement. I was curious as to if I could take one without him noticing and I did!

Anyway, after that it was sacrament meeting. Today was the christmas program. I loved the christmas program. The choir took up most of sacrament meeting and sang songs, and of course the congregation did too! There was a story weaved into the singing as well it was pretty good.  The script for the story was written by none other than my childhood friend Devin which I thought was pretty cool!

Anyway, it was still raining after church. I got a ride home from Dylan again, that always makes my day.  I caught up with him after church and he just asked me.

anyway here I am just listening to music again. if anything happens after this I will update this post. :)

EDIT:

Got back from visiting teaching a while ago. It's basically we are assigned different people to go visit and share a gospel related topic. We have a companion and usually visit 2 people.  It can be interesting sometimes.

Holiday Parties... and fires.

So there is this old Tabernacle around where I live. Anyway, something went wrong yesterday morning and it caught on fire. This building is like 70 or more years old and it was quite treasured by the people around here. Even in my family it held a lot of memories. My parents have performed in various choirs in this tabernacle. The whole structure looked classic, it was pretty neat. The fire lasted pretty long and destroyed most of the tabernacle. It was burning all day yesterday and firemen were there all day trying to put it out. I went with my mom and dad yesterday and went to go see the fire. They had the area taped off on all sides, but you could still get close enough to really see what was happening.  The fire was still going by midnight, that is when we went to see it. I got a lot of pictures and stuff since this is actually a pretty historic event over here.  It was lightly snowing and my face was frozen it was so cold.  Over all it was a pretty interesting experience for me to see it burned down.  I even have a few memories in that tabernacle.

I spent a good part of the day at first just listening to music, watching movies, videos, reading blogs, and looking at various pictures. That seems to take up a lot of my time.  Yesterday was the 2nd Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas concert, the 2nd day. Tonight is the last official concert and then something is going to happen tomorrow but I don't know what. Probably some special broadcast or something.  My parents were gone most of the time the last 3 or so days. Well actually longer than that. They have been practicing with the choir for weeks.  I should see more of them next week with it being Christmas and all though. It's been a crazy week this week with the birth of my new niece and all.

Yesterday after my parents went to the 2nd concert I was alone for a while. My ward was having a christmas party that evening. I just hung around and did the usual, but almost forgot to charge my phone. it was at 28% by that time. I plugged it into the charger soon after that and got ready or the party.  I let myself be a little late because I didn't want to unplug my phone before it got to at LEAST 60% on the battery.

Anyway, I couldn't find a ride so I just walked over to the church. I won't lie it was a little creepy. The ground was lightly covered with frost and everything looked eerie. I almost turned back once or twice. I made it there though it wasn't to far away.  I was glad to get inside by then it was freezing outside.  I walked into the gym of the church and they had ights strung on the cealing and stuff it was pretty cool. I think there should have been more lights though because it was sort of dark a little. I could still see thankfully.

there were tables with white, table cloth, and some sort of red decoration on it, they also put greenery on the tables and scattered Hershey's kisses all over the tables. It was pretty cute.

For dinner we had enchelatas and this rice stuff I don't know what i was. There was also fruit punch, that was pretty good. I love fruit punch a lot. Anyway, after I ate I just sat there at one of the tables and just talked with people. After a while of talking and eating Erin ( the person that arranged and planned the party) told us about the various things near the back of the gym that people had gotten for this one family that is having a hard time. We decided to sub for santa or this family. All of us worked for a while wrapping the presents for the family. I actually left most of it to the others and just walked around helping with various random things.

After we finished that we did the white elephant game. Each of us had a cheap or used present that we bought or no longer wanted, Erin read a story that had a seried of "lefts and rights" in it. Whenever she said right or left we would pass the present each direction. At the end of the story we opened our random presents. I got something really crappy that made me want to throw up.  I got canned chillies which I think is just so gross really. I could hardly stand to look at the can. I am non fond of canned veggies, and stuff like that I prefer it to be fresh.  I thought it was funny though and none the less  got a good laugh out of it anyway.

After that we were told a few stories by some people in the ward they were pretty good.

One of my friends, amber kept on asking me if either Darik or Dylan texted me back the whole time I was there. I didn't mind but she makes me laugh sometimes.  I did text me but Darik didn't text me back until about an hour after the party ended.   I'm getting off subject here ha ha.

Anyway, the party was pretty much over after the stories. I hung around for a while and just helped with various things. I got a ride home with one of my neighbors after that. 

After I got home I just decided to kic back and relax and read various blogs, and fan fictions of a random sort until my parents came home. :)

Anyway, that was my day yesterday, it was pretty interesting. I wish i could have gone to the concert again though ha ha.

Music and Christmas Cheer!

So pretty much yesterday was awesome. Yesterday was a dress rehearsal for the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas Concert. David Archuleta is the guest singer for the next 3 days, he sounds like an angel!

Anyway, so my day began pretty normal yesterday. I did the usual, updating twitter, checking facebook, looking at pictures, listening to music. Stuff like that takes up a lot of my day usually. Around 30 minutes to noon I started getting ready for the concert. I washed my hair and stuff, got dressed, then I decided since I was sort of still tired and only got about 6 hours of sleep I would take a nap before the concert.

I took the nap with my towel still on it was a little weird but I slept for about 45 minutes before I took it off and then went back to sleep for another 30 minutes. My hair was still wet when I woke up but it was really funny because it was all over the place. It has a tendency to do that when it's wet and not brushed.  It was about 3pm by this time. I blow dried my hair and did my bangs, and got my jewelry together. it was about 3:30pm by then. I just sort of hung out while I was waiting for my dad to get back and got some other stuff together like my glasses and my monocular.

We left at about 4pm and drove up to Salt Lake. We stopped at subway on the way there and ate dinner. All 7 of us were packed into our 6 passenger car it was pretty cramped. I was listening to pandora radio on my phone the whole entire time we were driving, and snacking on roasted almonds.  My brother brought a date, she was pretty nice. The car drive wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. My nieces were pretty noisy though, but not to noisy.

There was a lot of traffic, we got there at about 5:15 or 5:30 I think. The city was pretty busy that day, it took us forever to park. Lucky for us both my parents are in the choir and they have a place to park just for choir members. Otherwise it would have been harder for us to find parking... a lot harder.

So after we parked, we just made sure everything was in order and then we went our seperate ways. My mom and dad went to go get dressed for the concert and we went to get in line.

We were in line for about 45 minutes, during that time my little niece had to go to the bathroom and it was funny because she tried to hold it but couldn't. we eventually got her in to the building somehow with the help of some guards and she got to go. We were standing in line for  45 minutes or so like I said before. It was pretty cold, but I had a good coat on. I showed my brother's girlfriend some pictures of the guy I like (Sam), and talked about some of my other friends.  I also texted Darik a few times while I was waiting. He texted me back which made me really quite happy.

They opened the doors to the conference center at about 6:30 or 6:35. We were all pretty excited to go inside. They checked our purses, and our tickets and we went through the metal detector. After that we went inside and found our seats. I sent a picture to Darik when I was in my seat, he thought it was pretty cool, and he wished he could go. I wanted to give him tickets, but we didn't have any extras to my memory, I did ask my mom later though just in case but she said she didn't have any more. :(

The concert started at about 8pm it was so nice. David Archuleta sent chills up my spine with his angelic singing, and the choir too! Everything about it was magical. There were dancers and the lighting and stuff was so pretty!  We had pretty great seats as well on top of that.

My niece Kayla was a little noisy at first and a person behind us actually scolded her once for bothering them. I made it a point for the whole rest of the concert to not let that happen again and made sure she payed attention to what she was supposed to be paying attention to.  She was pretty good after a while. She is only 7 so we were a bit worried how she would behave, she was pretty good though.

I brought my glasses and my monocular so I could see better and wouldn't miss anything.

The concert lasted about an hour and a half, after t was finished we just sat in our seats and waited for the choir members to leave, then we went to find the car.

We encountered a bit of trouble with that though and decided to just wait until my dad found us in the parking so he could help us find the car. My mom came too after a few minutes and we went to the car after that.

We weren't stuck in traffic as long as I thought we would be. We actually got out fairly quickly.

We just drove home and talked about family stuff, memories and some other things.  I was just listening to music the whole entire time again. I was really worn out by the time I got home. Crowds really tire me out sometimes.

I just go on the computer and watched anime for a while and then went to bed after that.

It was a pretty fun day yesterday! :)

November and December Update!

So it's about time I update you guys on what has been happening. This isn't going to be as long as I intended. I don't really feel the need to make it long anymore. :)

Probably the biggest news is that my niece Andrea was born 2 days ago! She is so adorable.

My sister linda and Justin, and jax (the baby) is coming over for christmas! I am so psyched! :) This christmas is promising to be really eventful. I figured I better update now because it would be a pain to wait. 

I didn't really write anything all november, don't worry about that too much. Nothing much happened to the best of my memory except for Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving was pretty normal, we had dinner and board games and that was about it. 

Another thing that happened in November was the finishing of my new closet, as you all know.

My mom had to get another job, she is trying to get a position that gives her good insurance so she can quit her other job. They aren't treating her very well. If it werent for the fact that they give her insurance for medication, and the fact that my dad has no job.

I think thats all I need to say for this update. it probably would have been longer if I hadn't waited so long. I forget a lot of stuff if I make that mistake.  I said the important stuff though, that's what matters.

I'll make sure to keep you guys up to date on what is happening more. I know I've been slacking off lately. Also make sure to follow me on Twitter (starya), and check out my pandora page! :) http://www.pandora.com/people/manami_hikari

 

Computer troubles

Sorry I've been gone again. My computer has been being stupid and its actually broken right now. I Am doing this on my phone right now. I wlll be back in a few says and will post a big update. I know I am pretty overdue on that on both of my blogs

My Closet is finished... pretty much.

So sorry I've been away for 10 days from Xanga. I have been taking care of a lot of stuff.

Anyway, here is what has been happening.

This week they finished up my closet, we are still painting it though right now so I'm not putting pictures up yet. I will do that soon. I am going to paint my walls next. After I paint my walls i am most likely going to get new carpet, and then I will see after that.

Last week we had our quarterly ward potluck at my church after church. Darik and Dylan have been going to my ward for almost a month now. It has been awesome.  They were there, and I sat at a table directly behind Dylan. I was going to sit at the same table, or next to him but some other people beat me to it. I won't pretend I wasn't disappointed, I really was.  The food was great, I don't really remember what I ate though. I remember I ate a roll, and a cookie from the cookies I bought. I had a little bit of everything pretty much. 

I just hung around the table Dylan was sitting at for a while, and listened to the people talk for a while.  I hung around after the dinner was done for a while. I was not sure if I was going to walk home or get a ride.  I thought that Darik and Dylan had left already by the time I was leaving, but then Dylan caught up to me right when I was about to go out the door and asked me if I needed a ride. I can't even tell you how happy that made me. To me any time I can spend with him or Darik is worth it. They are pretty awesome guys.  I was in a great mood the whole rest of the day after that.

Anyway, this week nothing much happened besides my closet being remodeled. I spent most of the week listening to music and finding new artists, doing stuff on facebook, and trying to finish some things I've been writing. 

I did go shopping on Friday. We went to target and I got my new boots, and a new coat. I also got this really pretty snow globe with an angel in it.  We went to the mall as well that day, my mom is searching for new jobs, so she went looking there.  We went to R.C Willey to look at furnature, and a new washing machine, we ended up not buying one though because the guy that worked there honestly told us what was wrong when we explained what was going on. It turned out it was our soap that was the problem. We are going to buy a new fridge though soon, so we'll be back there.

Anyway, other than that I can't remember anything else. I did buy some pretty cool iphone apps though. I will do a seperate post about that some other time though.

Building! :)

So yesterday I spent most of the day just cleaning and packing up my stuff just like the day before. I did a lot of dusting, and moving stuff yesterday. I had to move some of my furnature in odd places, like the dresser that was in the spot where my closet is now, we had to park it up right against my bed, it's weird. I'm going to re-arrange my bedroom so I can fit everything after they are done building the closet completely.

Today They started building my closet. It took about 3 hours for them to build it, and wall up some areas.  I will post pictures soon of the process. It was pretty interesting. :)

They have to mud up some parts of the wall, so we can paint it and stuff. I'm excited for that a lot.

Other than that I've just been doing the usual today, listening to music, thinking up new stuff to write, watching movies, and doing research on random stuff. :)

Here are the pictures, the progress of the closet so far. :)

Cleaning up

So today I primarily cleaned out my sisters stuff from my room. it has been there for ages. I also cleaned up my floor, it was cluttered with clothes and other stuff. I'm really crazy when it comes to leaving clothes around everywhere. I don't have my closet built yet, and it's a real pain in the butt hanging stuff up in my fake cardboard closet. It doesn't really make that great of a fake closet.

I also got Pandora One today. I use Pandora Radio a lot.  I'm really quite happy that I wont have to keep an eye on how many hours I listen anymore. It feels great to be able to just listen and not think about that kind of thing.

I'm thinking of buying a squishable. They are like big, round, fat stuffed animals. You should look them up. I have full intention of collecting them all someday.

I'm having some herbal mint tea right now. It's a nice thing to have before bed. It's okay for LDS people to have herbal tea by the way, it has nothing bad in it. My mom has a lot of different teas, I intend to try them all eventually.

It is officaly cold weather season. I didn't mention it but last week, or early this week it snowed. I can't remember which.  It was really strange to see snow after so long. It's always weird.

I have been packing stuff away in preparation for building my new closet, getting my carpet, and painting. I still have quite a few things to pack though. I'm excited I'm finally getting the look for my room i have always wanted.

 

It's november!! :)

Hey guys, sorry I haven't been writing. I've been planning my room remodeling, re-design, painting, etc. It's been a busy time for me lately.

Anyway, so today was pretty fun. I sort of slept in a little though, noon to be exact. I get lazy sometimes and ignore my alarm... hehe.  I mostly just surfed facebook for a while, and listened to music and though up what i was going to write later.  I had milk for breakfast... yes I know that isn't healthy to just have milk but I couldn't think of anything at that time. I wasn't that hungry anyway for some reason...

Anyway after an hour or so of doing nothing me, my mom and dad decided to go to the bank to deposit some of my momey, and to get my mom on my account as well. We went to one of the bank branches nearer to our house, and deposited the check, we were going to add my mom to my account there but they had us waiting too long, we had some bad customer service so we just went to the other branch. They had us going almost  immediately. We did our business there and then took  my sick dad home, he had the flu.

Me and my mom went to wallmart, I needed some new bra's and stuff, we went there and did that, I even got a king sized pillow while i was at it. 

After this we went to joanne's it's a fabric store, we looked through the fabric looking for a possible pattern for my bed set. I didn't really find anything I was really interesting.  I did see some really cut fabric though, nothing I would like to use for my bed set though.

We went to bed bath and beyond after this and looked at dishes and stuff. I was hoping I would find a blue and yellow and white one, or a pink, and green set. We didn't find a blue and yellow one but we found a pink , green and white one though. I'll take pictures later. I got some other pillows there too to go with the cases in the set. It was a fun experience. I also decided that since I couldn't find the blue and yellow one I wanted possibly I would just do my bathroom those colors when I re-model my bathroom.

Anyway, I went home after this, put all the stuff in the washer (well my mom did), then I had tomato soup for dinner. 

that is what I did today. 

As for the past couple of days. Don't worry about it to much. I did get Darik's number finally though. Things are feeling better between us already from my point of view.  Besides that I've just been doing halloween stuff, watching movies, and listening to music.

My ward had a party last friday at our church. We had donuts, cookie decorating, candy, music, dancing, punpkin carving, bingo, etc. it was pretty fun in all. I went as a blind person (I will post that picture later.)  We also had pizza, root beer and this white chocolate popcorn stuff it was fantastic.
