It's Official!

So it's official! I really DID graduate!!!! My diploma came in the mail and here it is!

I'm officially a College Graduate!


I haven't decided if I'm going to walk or not... but I'll let you all know if I do!

A New Year!!!

Well! It's 1-1-11 today! Who would have thought it would be a new year already! Wow time has gone by fast this last year!

My biggest accomplishment of the past year I would have to say is graduating from UVU with a Bachelor's Degree in Hospitality Management!!!!!!!

What I'm supposed to do with it now... that's another question... haha but I'm sure I'll figure something out. I'm still working in the same place - but I'm thinking about branching out and trying Hotels out to see how I like them, I'm not sure if they will be as exciting as the restaurant business, but I'm willing to find out!

With the new year starting, and being down with school, I'm sure that I'm going to have a lot more free time on my hands. I really want to take up crocheting and Thanks Clint and Nat! for giving me the stuff to get started. =) I'm really exciting to start making stuff!

As some of you may know, I acquired some Sugar Gliders this past year. What are Sugar Gliders? you may be asking... well! Sugar Gliders are small gliding marsupials originally native to eastern and northern mainland Australia. Here is what they look like:




This is Azuca and Goliath.











Even more recently.... they had a baby! It was quite a surprise! I was looking in their box one night when I saw something that I was not expecting at all! It was a baby!! It was my Christmas Miracle. =)















The baby is on Mamas back. I haven't came up with a name yet, but I'm pretty sure it's a boy.




Here's one of just him!!
=)


I also will try to update my blog more than two times a year. ( Apparently I only posted once last year... that's pretty sad!)

I've had a lot of good times and experiences this past year, and I plan to have many many more great times this new year. =)

I love you guys! And hope you're all having a wonderful day!

What? An update?

So after much badgering, I finally decided to check out my lil' ol' blog that I've neglected for.... 10 months? or so.... so here is some updates! I'm sure a lot of things have happened - but here is what I have pictures of! so enjoy!

So I've moved into a new apartment - it's a nice little place right by my school, so it makes walking to school very easy! (These are some pictures from the beginning, it's changed a bit in some spots)

Here is the Dinning Room/Kitchen



This is the Living Room and my Room


And here is me on my 22nd Birthday! hurrray!


Saul's Mom and friend also came up and visited for a day and we went to Bridal Falls and up to Salt Lake

Here is Saul and I standing in the waterfall


I also went on an adventure with Saul, Rindy, Shane, and some of their friends. We went hiking to a cave!! But... we couldn't find the cave for awhile, so we hiked across the hillside! It was pretty fun, till I got a migraine, and started feeling really sick, and I think dehydrated, and yeah..... I still love you guys! Even if you try to kill me every time I go with you =)

I'm up so high!!! (And so far from the car!!)










We finally found the cave!!!! (In the top left of the picture)

After the cave - I don't remember a whole lot... just getting water poured on me... extremely cold!! but felt really good. Also sliding down the hill side with Rindy and her friend... but I survived! And give me a couple of days and I'll be ready to go again!

Other than that - I've just been working a lot! My typical work schedule involved opening at 5:30am in the morning and closing at midnight that same day and repeating it over again. Not the most fun... so I made a decision and decided to leave one place and just stick with one. Hopefully that will be happening next week! Then I'll have more time to.... update this blog! hurray! and to go out and enjoy the summer before I go back to school.

I hope you all enjoyed this update! And I'll try to do it a little more often than 10 months. =)

love you guys! Have a wonderful day!

New Places!

Hello Everyone!!

As most of you know I'm now currently living in Orem! I'm loving it! I love the change, and the different pace, and pretty much just everything here.

Work has been going great, I'm working at a 24/7 store, where it's actually busy sometimes. Which makes it pass faster and more fun. And I enjoy bossing people around. =P Well, for the most part I do.

I finished my summer classes last week. It's nice having a couple of weeks of actual summer without school, but I start again August 26th. I'm taking 19 credits, so that means I'm going to have to cut my work schedule down. (Currently I work 40+ hours) So I'm thinking maybe 20 hours or so, we'll see how it goes. I just need to go down to the institute sometime and get a class there, and see how credit transfers and whatnot.

That's about it that's going on right now. I love you guys!

I figure it's probably time for an update!

hah! So I'm finally getting around to updating. I think I'm just a tad to lazy to do it all the time, not to mention I don't get on the computer as much as I used to. Weird! huh. =P

As you all probably know by now, my Sonic shut down so I'm working down in Washington. It's actually not that bad, and it's nice having a new group of people to hang out with and to get to know. Generally my schedule goes as this: I drive down tuesdays and then stay till saturday and spend my weekends here in Cedar. I stay at my boss's house, where I have my own room and bathroom and I pretty much never see him and his wife. They go to sleep at 8 which is wayyy to early for me to be home. haha

Other than that I've just been working on my online classes and enjoying being a kid still (I may be an "adult" but I can still act like a kid!) before I have to actually live in the real world.

Last night I went ice blocking with some friends. My friend Skye and I had never gone so we decided to try it out. For those who don't know what it is - you buy a block of ice, go and find a really big hill and bring a towel. Then you put the towel on top of the ice and slide down the hill. It's actually really really fun! I think my favorite was sliding down on my stomach. =P
What was even better was we had a cop stop by, wondering what we crazy kids were doing and we almost got him to do it with us. He said if he wasn't on duty he woulda done it. hah!

We also all went to a dance saturday night. It was very.... interesting. It reminded me of HS. Probably because all the people there were IN HS. But that's okay, we had a good time nonetheless.

Anyways! I need to start packing and get ready for work. I'll try to update more often than once every 2 months!

Have a Wonderful day!!

My 21st Birthday!

So I had an awesome Birthday!!

One of my classes was canceled so Travis took me out to breakfast at Ihop - which I got a really tasty steak burrito. Then I got sung to in my Math class and got candy in my HRHM class. It was awesome.

I also got birthday wishes throughout the day. =)

Mom and Dad also came to visit - which was really nice of them. =D Mom, Dad, Travis, and I went to Ninja, a Japenese Sushi and Grill. It's probably one of my favorite restaurants. We got a hibachi table where they cook in front of you. It was great. They also sang to me and let me bang the gong once. We got what I think was sorta like fried ice cream for my birthday treat, but it also had like cake too. It was really tasty!

Travis also bought us sushi to try. I was so proud of dad he tried some even though he said he rather jump out of a 2 story building. =P
And mom was impressive too! She had the cooked roll and the RAW spicy tuna roll. She's a lot braver than me I think. =)

I also got an ice cream cake. Yum!! We put my candles on it and sang after dinner. It was all very very yummy!

I also got some great presents. I got a camera (which isn't quite here yet - but I hear it's hot pink. Woot! I think it'll be awesome!) and a memory card for the camera, also season 1 and 2 of heroes and yes man, and a nice jacket and a sweet strobe light that you hook into a lamp. I haven't tried it out yet, but I think it's going to be really cool. And also some pretty little roses.

All in all It was a great day. Everything just seemed right and happy and beautiul. The weather was very nice too!

I'm sad to have it over - but back to work today at 4. But I'll have another break soon with Rindy's wedding coming up! Where I'll see all of you!!

Have a fantastic day! I know I will! =D

Updatey

Well an update on the money -- we have none. Still nothing, and I really don't think we'll be able to find out. It's just slightly eerie that there is a theif among us and they could do it again anytime. I just hope guilt finally gets them to turn themselves in.

Anyways! I got 3rd place last week out of all the marketing directors. It's based on giving out samples on saturday and I did a good job! Hopefully it'll go good again this saturday. Specially since it's conference and there will be a lot of people traveling through.

School is going good! Took a scary math test today... don't know how I did. But we can fix our tests and get half the points back we lost. But I'm hoping I did pretty well!

With school in mind there's only 4 weeks left! It's crazy to think that another semester is almost over. I have an apointment set up for Monday with my school advisor, so hopefully I'll be able to figure out how much longer it'll take me to graduate, and to make sure I'm on the right track!

I think I'm developing a slight cold. My through has been really sore and my stomach has been unhappy on and off all day. Hopefully it's just something small and it'll pass.

Well! Time to get back to some homework.

Hope you're all having a wonderful day!!
