In November it snowed.......and I mean SNOWED!!!! First night we got DUMPED on and because of the drifting our driveway was completely full of snow......and we were trapped! See for yourself.....<br />

Yeah it was nuts! And we have not been short on snow since then.....I hate to say this but I'm really starting to miss Moses lake all brown and stuff.....is that sad or what?<br />
<br />
<br />
Oh well enough about weather..........<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Did I find an excuse to dress up in November.....does a bear crap in the woods?<br />
<br />
<br />
My friend Kiley had a "Beauty and the Geek" themed dinner party at the Olive Garden, and I found an excuse to wear my pillbox hat and veil so you know I was happy!<br />
<br />
<br />
Here's some of my favorite shots from the night.<br />

November may have been the most exciting and life changing month of the year, the pinnacle moment from the work that I had put in all summer long.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Up until this moment I had not discussed on my blog my future plans....I was waiting until things were pretty solidified before I announced what I was doing...and then like usual the moment passed and I put it off and put it off...until now with the year in review, I'm making up for the procrastination!<br />
<br />
<br />
How do I sum this up........... I wanted to serve a Mission for my church like 4 yrs. ago, but because of money, my weight, and thinking I was too old and missed my opportunity I didn't do it. With Graduation looming and me needing to figure out what to do with my life.....I weighed several options and none of them felt right and then a light bulb hit me and I realized I still needed to serve a mission. but I still had lots to figure out, mostly how I was gonna drop 60 lbs in order to turn in my papers, but much like how things do when it's right, the stars aligned and I dieted all summer and by November I had hit the 60 lb. mark. My papers got sent and..........<br />

My Mom, Dad, Sister and I all huddled into Mom's car and I opened it in the church parking lot, because the mail came at 4 and I was leaving for our ward Temple trip at 5 and I just could not handle waiting any longer then 1 hour to open it! <br />
<br />
<br />
After tons of phone calls and text messages, and of course a status update on facebook, I spread the word to everyone I could possibly think of.....so if this news is new to you I am super sorry! I leave March 22nd to enter the Missionary Training Center in Sao Paulo and yeah I'm pretty excited! Excited to learn Portuguese, excited to give back to something that has given me everything, and excited to maybe catch a parasite so I never have to diet AGAIN!!!!! :)<br />

The beginning of September I got my bottom two wisdom teeth taken out.......yeah it was as awesome as you're thinking! This was slightly uneventful other than one side of my face swelling larger then the other, so I looked sorta like half of Kanye West! Also props to Angie who gets the roomate of the year award! She was kind enough to take care of me, make sure I took my meds on shedule, and get me fresh frozen veggie packs for my face! Best Roomie EVER!<br />

Funnest part of the month.........Memorial day weekend in Seattle seeing the sights and hitting up Bumpershoot to see Drake and Mary J. Blige!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Sunday before the festival we hit up "Chopsticks" this piano bar Michelle told us about and I got to sit on the piano a sing a little diddy for the people! probably the greatest rendition of Total Eclipse of the Heart any of them have ever heard!!!!!......and i'm being completley sarcastic, it was pretty awful, but I gotta sit on the piano, so it was a win for me!<br />

I wish you could have heard Rachel and I singing along to "I'm goin' Down" which is one of my all time favorites, or us ladies gettin' "....crunk upon, have fun upon up in this dancery" <br />

Singing and Dancing along to your favorite songs live, is the BEST!<br />

Let me break this down for you......this costume cost me all of 2 dollars! I got the idea from a magazine at work! I smuggled some supplies from the office, mooched some freebies from the safeway deli, hit up the dollar store for a headband and balloons and the rest was found around the house, then with some packing tape and a hot glue gun, my sister and I created this little work of art!<br />

I made it in to the top 3, my competition was The Madhatter and Alice (rented costumes mind you :) ) and a guy in a pink leotard with a dog collar on and a mattress strapped to his back (it was a bar remember) and I thought I had lost it there, because I figured people where too drunk to think my sushi roll was cute and endearing.......but luckily with a little crowd hyping....... I beat out the S&M guy but still lost to the Madhatter and Alice! I guess people where too wasted to appreciate my 2 dollar costume, but Oh well I got 2nd place and a $50 dollar gift certificate to the BBQ depot, and truthfully I was just excited I won something! <br />

Oh and I bedazzled my cap.......I figured I didn't make a lot of noise in the things that matter, so I had to figure out how to shine on my own......it's what I do, and graduation ceremonies are too serious anyway if you ask me! Also my Mom and Sister made me this sweet candy/money lei and I was pretty much the happiest camper EVER!<br />

OK just for honesty sake, I have 110 credits (you only need 90 for an associates) but one requirement is proficiency in Math 99....well I passed the first half of the final, but not the 2nd half. So presently I am half a math test away from having my degree in my hot little hand......I've been putting it off, don't judge me! At least it's only half right?<br />

</div><div><br />
</div><div>I debated writing about certain things that went down in April because I didn't talk to hardly anyone about it because I was embarrassed, but I think it was a major event that rocked my life this year and since we are reviewing.....well it wouldn't be complete without this. </div><div><br />
</div><div>I had been involved with ASB my entire career at Big Bend and it was one of the best experiences of my life, being involved with that kept me sane and feeling like I was doing something worth while! I loved my fellow officers and advisor they where my friends and I cared for them a great deal, I loved being apart of the behind the scenes stuff and serving on committees and almost everything about it I enjoyed a great deal, the memories and experiences I had serving as an officer I'll cherish always, I got the opportunity to do a lot of amazing stuff, and anyway it was a huge blessing!</div><div><br />
</div><div>The beginning of Spring Quarter I ended up losing my ASB job, they operate on a 3 strikes you are out system but because I'm me, I had several slip ups all year..... I didn't submit a written absence request for 2 events in the same weekend, I was late once (yes that's right I said once), and I missed 2 meetings. I have my excuses and reasons for all of these things, but mistakes are mistakes and regardless of my excuses they cost me my job. I was absolutely sick for months about it, I still cringe a little thinking on it and I didn't even tell my family because I was ashamed that in a years time I had managed to lose two jobs. </div><div><br />
</div><div>The next few months after that was the most depressed I think I've ever been, I was feeling pretty low, mainly because I realized that I can't just coast a long on my jokes and personality, that maybe now I actually have to be responsible and dependable. Making people laugh only gets you so far, if you don't have a good work ethic.... people can only be beguiled by your charm for so long before they start to get annoyed. I guess to sum it up I was sad because I realized no matter how hard I tried to justify my actions I was still in the wrong and if I wanted to keep a real job I was gonna need to change how I work. Old habits die hard, I still struggle, but admitting is the first step....... right?</div><div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div>Fortunately life wasn't all gloomy..... I had some things to keep me distracted.........</div><div><br />

New year meant it was time to switch up the hair and try something different so Anne Baker was kind enough hook me up with a sweet dye job! I got lots of compliments and felt like a new lady!<br />
<br />
<br />
Also January kicked of the start of maybe my most favorite job to date!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Now I've worked ALOT of different gigs in my day, but one stands out as being the most fun/ easiest job for my money!<br />
<br />
<br />
And that was playing Big Bend's mascot Thor.<br />
<br />
50 bucks a game for a solid 15 minutes of actual work, I'd dance around during time outs and toss out Big Bend shirts to the crowd..... I got free gatorade and popsicles... I got to wear this sweet ice vest under the outfit to keep me cool and for the most part nobody knew who I was, so I could be as crazy as I wanted to! Well that's a lie people did know it was me, I thought I had them fooled, but I was wrong....doesn't matter still had a lot more courage with that mask on!<br />
<br />
<br />
Not many people can say they where their school's mascot, I'm sure I could dominate many an icebreaker game with that little factoid!<br />

Don't ask why I didn't blog about our stake play this year I am ashamed I never got around to it!<br />
<br />
From December to the end of March we worked on the Production of Hello Dolly, and it was another job well done if you ask me! I had another part that I loved (Ernestina Money) and lots of sweet costumes, not to mention lots of fun times with my stake play family!<br />

My Grandma Dorothy Schaat passed away Wednesday Oct. 13th.<br />
<br />
<br />
She was the last of my Grandparents, and I knew this day was coming, but it doesn't matter how prepared you are for stuff like this, it's still weird and it still makes you sad, and I just would like to take some time to put into words everything that's been running through my mind as a result.<br />
<br />
<br />
Grandma had a stroke over a month ago which left her with a pretty skeptical recovery, the doctors weren't sure if she'd walk again, but you know you can never trust that kind of prognosis, miracles happen all the time, right? She had several complications while in the hospital. and as a result was only really coherent a few times and was able to somewhat communicate with visitors when they stopped by, The last time I saw her somewhat awake, she told me how sorry she was I had to see her like that. It kinda broke my heart a little.<br />
<br />
So, the first week of Oct. early Sunday morning she suffered a 2nd stroke leaving her almost brain dead, at that point my Mom and her siblings didn't have much choice but to have the nurses extend to her comfort measures and just let nature take it's course. For about a week an a half she hung in there, and we were all really surprised because at the time it just seemed like forever! And we just didn't understand how in such a weakened state, with no food, barely any water, Pneumonia, and no medicine other than morphine that<br />
her body could hold on as long as it did. We blamed Aunt Francis for feeding her so much garlic!<br />
<br />
After a couple days they moved her to a nursing home and It was really difficult to walk into that place I mean it just smelled like depression and death, It made me wanna pull a Patch Adams on the residents there, because I can't imagine it being the most uplifting place to live out your final days but anyway as dreary as the conditions and reason for being there was I'm thankful for the bounding time I got in with my Mom and my Aunts, maybe that's why she stuck around as long as she did, so we could all come together and share some laughs. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
If any of you remember I blogged about my G-Ma Schaat for her 80th birthday a couple years ago and told all my favorite stories regarding her, the time she gave my Dad pear body splash for Christmas, my first lesson in harmonizing, and of course my most favorite the time she trimmed my picture down to make me look skinny. She was the relative I got the most funny material from, you just never knew what funny thing she was gonna say or do next...... I don't know what I'll do without her now!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I feel a little bad because I never realized how much my Grandma and I had in common until l heard about what she was like growing up. My Aunt Marianne said she was the one that knew all the words to the popular songs of her day, and her money was often spent on the purchasing of the latest records, She loved to dance, even up until the very end of her life she hated to miss the dances at the Senior Center every Thursday night. I was always curious where my passion for music came from, I had assumed it was from my Dad's side, but after hearing those stories I really think it came from her. Maybe the genre's of music aren't the same, Grandma really loved country western, and she even learned how to yodel, well I love Hip Hop music, and I like to get my rap on occasionally, but the love for music is the same. Also I certainly hope I live to be the ripe old age of 82 and still find a way to get myself to the dance floor. <br />
<br />
I will miss her a great deal, I loved her very much, all her crazy moments aside, I know she loved me and wanted what was best for me! She had a great part in the building blocks of my spirituality and her example of faithfulness will be one that I remember always!<br />
<br />
These pictures are ones I took when some of my dear relatives came to visit while G-Ma was still in the hospital, and then the ones from when we traveled down to Rexburg/St. Anthony for her service.<br />

The road trip down was actually kind of fun, I made sure we had tunes the whole family could agree on, and I didn't need to bust out my i pod for personal enjoyment once! <br />

This picture is probably my most favorite from the whole trip!<br />

True Story....I haven't seen him since I was a Freshmen in High School, so it was really great to reconnect with him! We are very close in age, and he'd often spend the summers in Moses and our Moms would attempt to put us through fat camp by making us walk everywhere and signing us up for things like tennis camp.....well maybe that was just one summer, but anyway We also took drama together in High school, so needless to say we have memories, and I realized I really missed that kid, super glad I got to see him!<br />

For 6 weeks to be exact and I've lost a total of 32 lbs. Now I'm sure a lot of red flags are jumping up and some of you are like HOLY CRAP are you eating? Well please rest assure I am not starving myself and I am on a legit Dr. ssupervised diet and for the last 3 weeks I've wanted to blog about what I'm doing, mainly because many of you have inquired about what it is exactly. Let's start from the beginning.......<br />
<br />
<br />
So right after graduation, Angie put in a good word for me at Dr. Earl's office and I got hired, and was super stoked because not only did I not have to beat the streets for months trying to find work, but I also could dress up and actually do my hair for the my job.....which after working at Safeway was a blessing and a half......but I digress.<br />
<br />
A good friend of Dr. Earl's named Bill Waites, was on this program called Ideal Protein and lost 60lbs in 3 months. So Dr. Earl decided to try it out in his clinic and needed someone on board to do the diet as well as "Coach" other patients who eventually signed up, and I bet you can guess who got nominated......This girl!<br />
<br />
<br />
As most of you know, it wasn't gonna kill me to drop a few pounds and I had spoken with Dr. Earl who is also my Bishop in the Singles ward about the need for a weight loss program and what do you know, everything just kind of came together I got a job and a diet all in less then a month!<br />
<br />
OK back on track...<br />
<br />
So what is Ideal Protein? Well, it's sort of a marriage of the Atkins Diet and Nutri-system. It was studied in the same place as Atkins and has the same premise with the low carb, high protein, but I am not allowed as much cheese and meat as I want, and I'm not consuming all the saturated and trans fats that comes along with that diet as well, so you're welcome heart! <br />
<br />
Anyway, Ideal Protein makes a variety of packaged foods that are all powdered and you pretty much just add water, in addition you have to eat 4 cups of vegetables a day and at dinner your choice of a lean meat. I guess the thing that sets this diet apart from the rest is that because of the high protein, and limited carbs and sugars you're body goes into a state they call Ketosis which means it's burning fat, not muscle mass. Also with this protocol if you don't cheat you lose 3-5 lbs a week, no plateauing, every week you should lose if you're body is in Ketosis.<br />
<br />
<br />
So if you can handle no dairy, bread, pasta, fruit, or root based vegetables, then by golly this is the diet for you! OK yeah the diet is really restrictive, but the results are quick, and that makes it SOOOOOO worth it!<br />
<br />
<br />
OK picture time.......I've noticed the results mostly in my face, although my clothes fit great, and I feel great, and I'm about the weight I was when I was a Senior in High School, so in 6 weeks I lost the weight that took me 8 yrs. to gain.<br />
<br />
<br />

Now I've been on plenty of diets, but this is the longest I've stuck with any kind of weight loss program, and I just need so say that it helps immensely when people are cheering you on a long the way, so I just wanna say Thanks so much to all of you who have been so incredibly supportive, it really has been super motivating, and I can't thank you all enough for your kind words! I mean I still have a long way to go, but I'm so motivated to keep going and your compliments and words of encouragement have made this journey easier! <br />

But too much for one post, so let's take this piece by piece shall we?<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I've been working on redecorating my room pretty well since I moved in with Angie, but because I get so distracted by flashy things and my mind changes with ever TLC home improvement show I watch, it took me forever to settle on an idea, but finally I stuck with my guns!<br />
<br />
<br />
My room is a sky blue color, so I decided black and white was the way to go, so as to not distract from the cool color my room already was (plus I was way too lazy to paint it myself even if I wanted too!) and maybe also partly due to my increasing interest in zebra print and the damask pattern that is so popular these days.<br />
<br />
I spent hours searching eBay, every time I went to Ross, or Target I checked things out and collected little doodads, the last few months I even checked out Home Depot and <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Lowes</span> (for the first time ever mind you) as well as a few smaller shops around town so I could finally put it all together. Let me tell you ladies, I do not know how some of you decorate an entire house, I would go mad.... to many decisions, too many choices, too small of a budget! A person could spend a small fortune on decor if they are not careful, holy crap, some of the most useless things are CRAZY expensive, but I digress!<br />
<br />
<br />
I kind of got inspired by stores like Forever 21, and Closet Space (a small store in moses) hence a lot of the mannequin like lady figures, and I decided a splash of hot pink here and there wouldn't hurt either!<br />
<br />
<br />
Here I give you the finished product (sorry no before and after!)<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I should warn you I attempted to hang my zebra mirror myself, which explains why it's a little off, and perhaps it might stay that way, because I've made no attempt to fix it, but I just wanted you to know... that I know, so don't judge!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

<br />
Like I said, I'm certain I caught "The Street" from time to time, I watched Barney on occasion although I must admit I was borderline too old for that show, but sometimes it was the only thing on. My memories are a bit fuzzy but I know Mr. Rogers and Captain Kangaroo where regular programs in my line up, back when I was super little, but these ones stuck out the most in my memory of programs I couldn't get enough of as a child.<br />

To this day, this theme song stirs something emotional in me! If I had to name a favorite television theme song it would be this one! I was a pretty good reader growing up, so this show was right up my alley, I also had a slight crush on the host <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">LeVar</span> Burton, He just seemed so kind and genuine! <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Anywho</span>, Reading Rainbow will always have a special place in my heart, it stirred my desire to read and use my imagination, and to that I must say thanks!<br />

For the most part I think Ventriloquists are kinda weird, and a little...well a lot creepy, but for whatever reason, Shari Lewis did not freak me out, I think if I had to choose someone other then Bette <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Midler</span>, to steal a career from it might be hers, I mean she sang, she danced, she did magic tricks, and she did various voices for all her puppets......this all obviously screams Emily! The songs, and some of the tricks she did have stuck with me to this day and I find myself humming tunes from that show even now! <br />

Honestly, this show was usually on before E<span class="goog-spellcheck-word">ureka's</span> C<span class="goog-spellcheck-word">astle</span> and that is the only reason why I really watched it<br />
, one life lesson I learned from this show is that you cannot block a sneeze with a simple finger under the nose, it may subside it, but it will always come back with vengeance! So thanks David the Gnome! Thanks for helping me kill time until Eureka was on!<br />

One word Magellan..... Magellan the good natured dragon with his crazy cumbersome tail that crashed into things and got him into trouble, was my favorite character, forget Eureka, she was just a sorceress in training.... but MMagellan, MMagellan was legit, he had a sweet blanket that had polka dots that moved around and entertained him, and his pets "the <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">slurms</span>" ... which were pretty much just clay rolled into the shape of worms, but still sweet! I loved Magellan, and I loved <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Eureka's</span> castle!<br />

I still don't know exactly how the elephant fit into this show, he didn't even talk...... but this show started in Canada, so that should explain a lot! Much like Lamb Chops Play Along, this show was loved by me mainly because of the songs. I mean who doesn't love "<span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Skinamarinki</span> <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">dinki</span> dink"? And Every time Sharon would say "I Love Your Singin'!" I knew she was talking to me! Just thinkin' about it makes me smile!<br />

I've been thinking about my good buddy Whitney Smith, today is her birthday, and so this blog post is dedicated to her! <br />
<br />
<br />
Back in November, Whitney left Mo-town and we all got together for what I dubbed "The Last Supper", I was was supposed to post the pictures like forever ago, so sorry very sorry this took so long, but here are some of my favorite shots from that night!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The menfolk were especially sorry to see her go!<br />

Just to give a little background, Whitney moved to Moses Lake to teach dance at Today's Generation, and she became the most sought after person in the Singles Ward, so I secretly hated her because she was everything I wanted to be. That first Sunday she impressed me a great deal because instead of chilling with all the dudes like most girls in the past. She was kind and considerate to everyone, and it was like that for the entire time she lived her, she could possibly be the sweetest person I know! Oh and fun fact not only was she my friend, but she also was one of my instructor's last year, which was funny, and awesome!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I miss her presence in our small town, but unfortunately Moses Lake had to spread the love and let the world have a little Whitney in their life. And when I say world I mean that by no exaggeration, she is currently teaching English in Taiwan, last summer she was in Fiji doing humanitarian work, and the summer before that El Salvador!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I admire her a great deal, If I had half her ambition and determination.....well I don't even want to think of where I'd be!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I just feel lucky to call her friend!<br />
<br />

I've never been one to break the law or save kittens from trees, so I knew the evening news was outta the picture, and my family and my childhood was too normal for shows with Jerry Springer or Ricky Lake, but when I watched game shows......I thought, now that's something I could do!<br />

As a child Nickelodeon was sort of a babysitter for me, it was my favorite channel, and Double Dare was my favorite game show! Every time I watched it, I dreamt of the day I could slide down that tongue slide and get covered in slime and all sorts of crazy stuff! I'm was never very good at racing and I'm not known for my <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">spee</span>d, but when it comes to making messes I'm a champ, just ask my <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Madre</span>....and Angie! Anyway, trivia, and crazy challenges, mixed with a sweet obstacle course at the end, all for cool prizes!!! Double Dare was the best game show EVER!!!!<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
Rock'n' Roll Jeopardy-<br />
<br />
<br />
It's the only kind of Jeopardy I feel smart watching, although I wouldn't want to go up against, Edwin McCain, Mark <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">MaGrath</span>, or C.C. <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Deville</span>, because those guys were ridiculous with the stuff they remembered... I never expected that from C.C. thought all the drugs would have warped his memory, but he was a force to be reckoned with.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Also does anyone recognize the host?<br />

Lifetime may have the most depressing movies, but back in the day their game shows made me seriously happy! If there is one thing I know how to do, it's spend money, so a game show where you have to spend as much money as possible to win.....sounds like it was designed just for me! <br />

<br />
<br />
I think it should be <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">farely</span> clear that any game show involving pop culture and shopping would be on the top of my list.... thus shop til you drop! You get asked questions about various products and stores and sometimes you have to figure out what items are more expensive then another, and then if you make it to the end you could potentially win a massive shopping spree by doing a massive shopping spree! AWESOME!!!<br />

OK people, time for you to chime in, what are some of your favorite game shows?Unknownnoreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1265243216501918298.post-14591782032216686542010-05-10T21:25:00.000-07:002010-05-10T21:25:23.971-07:00"We can't all be heroes because someone has to sit on the curb and clap as they go by"- Will RogersNo one takes the place of your own mother, no matter what she's the one that gave you life, and no one takes the place of that. Sometimes in your life though people come along that act as a mother figure, and not to take anything away from my Mom who I love, I want to take a second to give thanks to the surrogate mothers in my life. <br />
<br />
<br />
The priesthood leaders in our singles ward have a specific calling to lead our ward, often times there wives come along for the ride to support, they don't have to come, they don't have to participate and stay out late and take part of all our crazy shenanigans, but the past few years I've been in singles ward the wives of our leaders have gone above and beyond, and I would like them to know how much I appreciate all they do and the great influence they are in my life.<br />
<br />
<br />
Carol <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Merril</span>, Jane Payne, Allison Black, Lora Bailey, and Grandma <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Byington</span>! This is why you are my heroes!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Ward dinners would not be possible with out all of your expertise, and every other Sunday when we have linger longer I'm fairly certain we would never eat were it not for their contributions. Relief Society lessons would struggle without their wise inputs! And I'm 99.9% sure without Sis. Bailey and Sis. Payne's matchmaking skills anyone would be dating at all!<br />
<br />
<br />
These ladies are thrown in the midst of all our craziness and they love and take care of us even when some of us are completely nuts! I love them for sacrificing their free time to help keep things running smoothly, and I'm appreciative of the examples of what an Eternal Marriage should be like. It reminds me of what I'm holding out for!<br />
<br />
<br />
Thanks again Singles Ward <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Mommala's</span>..... You are my heroes!<br />

It makes me cringe to say this, but 6yrs. ago almost to the date, I started my first semester at <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">BYU</span>-Idaho, my first time living away from home, and my first real shot at being an adult. <br />
<br />
<br />
I moved to R<span class="goog-spellcheck-word">exburg</span> a few weeks before school actually started and I lived in St. Anthony with my Uncle Pete and his family, while I looked around for a job, and housing, and worked on solidifying everything for school.<br />
<br />
Suzette <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Michie</span>, and <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">DeeAnne</span> Green 2 of my good buddies from high school were looking for a place to live as well and so we decided to room together. Suzette and I went house hunting one day, and almost literally stumbled upon the housing on this street.........<br />

This street is located right across from campus, the <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Spori</span> Building to be exact and it had quit possibly the oldest houses in <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">rexburg</span> on it. There were several homes and one Apartment Complex (that was rumored to be an old hospital) called the Davenport Apartments. I'm not exactly positive they were up to <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">BYUI</span> housing code, but the rent was super cheap, and for whatever reason <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Suz</span> and I decided it was the way to go, and the next thing we knew we were moving into the downstairs apartment of house number 121. If only we would have known the glories that place had in store for us.</div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;">We had these annoying crows just outside Dee's bedroom that made the loudest most horrible, <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">cauking</span> noises in the morning, one Sunday after church Dee attempted to chase them out of the trees so she could have some peace and quiet for her Sunday nap. the visions of her flapping her arms imitating those obnoxious birds make me smile every time I think about it! Also we had an ear wig infestation that was super awesome and ruined many a box of cereal, that was when I found out that ear wigs don't actually crawl in your ears and lay eggs in your brain. Also the tenants previous to us did not clean the stove... like ever, and they let grease and all sorts of nasty stuff collect under the burner and one time Dee and <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Suz</span> almost burned the house down when the burner caught on fire, sadly enough I slept through the whole thing, even the fire alarm going off. </div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;">But it wasn't just the house, Dee LOVED to pick on me, I'm like way bigger then her and if she would have provoked me enough I'm sure I would have taken her down (wink wink), but alas many a late night you would see me chasing her down the street, because she stole my pillow, or wrapped up in my mattress pad yelling "I'm a <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Pandido</span>, I'm a <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Pandido</span>", we loved our "<span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Doink</span> <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Doink</span>" aka Law and Order <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">SVU</span>.But for some reason the memory of Dee that sticks out the most was every time she had a Popsicle she would throw the stick behind the television, there were a lot of sticks accumulated at the end of the semester!</div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Worth IT! It was a waterfall that spiralled down into a basin, and you could hike down it, it was amazing!!!! Now we all know I'm not super outdoorsy, but that was something I attempted every summer I was there.

Because of all that took place, <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Rexburg</span> will always hold a special place in my heart.

I'm glad you asked! Here's what's going on in my world!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I'm in my last quarter at Big Bend, I applied for graduation and as far as my counselor and I are <span style="background-color: yellow;">concerned </span>I'm all set to receive my 2 year degree in June. Now, I realize it's just an associates degree, but I'M <span class="goog-spellcheck-word" style="background: yellow;">SOOOOOOOOO</span> EXCITED! It feels good to be so close to accomplishing something.....and it only took me what? 4 years to do it!!!!! <br />
<br />
<br />
That's me though, always on time (wink, wink).<br />
<br />
<br />
The middle of April, Angie's sister Kim and her daughter Elsie flew into Seattle and we made a little road trip out of it and hit up some hot spots, like the Woodland Zoo, Seattle's children's museum, and the Tulip festival. It was amazing, we ate some seriously delicious food, and made some serious memories! Angie who is apparently a star sighting magnet, spotted Dave Mathews at the Zoo on the carousel with his youngest son, she pointed him out to me, and I couldn't believe it at first, but after I got another good look, I was so excited, I wanted to get a picture real bad, but <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Ang</span> reminded me that he was with his family and that wouldn't be so cool, man I hate it when she's right!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Here's some shots from the Zoo....<br />

Although I have to admit, there was one scene that actually kinda got to me, and <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Miley's</span> acting was somewhat believable.

</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"> Just a side note, I love Utah, it's beautiful and there's lots of stuff to do and great places to eat, and some of my most favorite people live there, but I definitely received no impressions to make it my home. There comes a time in a Single <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">LDS</span> girls life when she reaches that age where it feels like you've got to move somewhere in order to find a husband and you think "Hey Utah has a lot of single Mormons, maybe moving there will solve all my problems!" Uh, not so much, I've known plenty of people who have proved that theory wrong! I thought it was a place I'd like to go, but I no longer feel that way.</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

</div>So what's coming up next?......priority #1 is I need to find a summer job and from there....well, I've officially decided that I should only talk about things that are definite, that are all set up and ready to go, that way it's not so disappointing if things fall through, and you don't have to explain yourself.<br />
<br />
<br />
In other words, I don't know yet, I've got some "irons in the fire" but nothing absolute, but I will let you know, when I know!<br />

I think we only use 10 percent of our hearts."- John Beckwith "Wedding Crashers"I crashed a wedding last Thursday! I never met the happy couple before, I knew 2 people that were actually invited, and it was....... well not as sweet as the movie makes it look, but that's probably because I wasn't lookin' to hook up with hot chicks, so you know whatever!<br />
<br />
<br />
The upside is, it wasn't your typical <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">LDS</span> wedding reception with the line, the after dinner mints and the crazy sherbet/7-up punch we love so much! This was a pretty classy event and my only pet peeve was the choice of songs selected for their mini dance party they had at the end of the night All this gave me the inspiration for my top 5 list for this Tuesday.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
without further adieu today's theme for Top 5 Tuesday is.................................<br />

<br />
"Top 5 Most Overplayed Songs @ Weddings!"<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
1. "When You Say Nothing At All" by Allison <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Krauss</span> and Union Station<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<object height="385" width="480"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/QjsjZWlRVvo&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/QjsjZWlRVvo&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I sang this song at not 1 but 2 wedding receptions in the same year, this song lost it's appeal to me though when it replaced "Lady in Red" as the go to slow song at stake dances, so whenever I hear it now it takes me back to all the times I stood alone along the wall trying to make myself look available for a dance, but nobody takin' the bait! <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Hmm</span>.... perhaps that's really why I hate it so much?<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
2. "At Last" by Etta James<br />
<br />
<br />
<object height="405" width="500"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/uVI254QGSQ4&hl=en_US&fs=1&border=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/uVI254QGSQ4&hl=en_US&fs=1&border=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="500" height="405"></embed></object><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I think this song should strictly be played at weddings of people<br />
over 50 who've never been married, it's a little more fitting, I have a hard timing believing this song when it's played at the weddings of people in their early 20's..... really? really? at last your love has come along, like you've really been waiting that long?......doubtful!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
3. "God Bless the Broken Road" by Rascal <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Flatts</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<object height="405" width="500"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/kkWGwY5nq7A&hl=en_US&fs=1&border=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/kkWGwY5nq7A&hl=en_US&fs=1&border=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="500" height="405"></embed></object><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I admit it, I got sucked in and thought this may have been the sweetest love song ever written, but when everybody started jumping on the train and thinking that song was written just for them, it got old fast! Sorry Rascal <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Flatts</span> you still win my heart with "I Melt" though!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
4. "From This Moment" by <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Shania</span> Twain feat. Bryan White<br />
<br />
<br />
<object height="405" width="500"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/a-Lp2uC_1lg&hl=en_US&fs=1&border=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/a-Lp2uC_1lg&hl=en_US&fs=1&border=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="500" height="405"></embed></object><br />
<br />
<br />
I think <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Shania</span> may have the record for most overplayed songs by one artist of all time, I could make her music, an overplayed Top 5 all on it's own! But this song, ever since it came out apparently became the only love song duet in recorded music history! Oh and don't even get me started on when she crossed over and she took Bryan White out of the song completely, this song needs to be retired ASAP, it is too obnoxious to still be used!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
5. "<span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Pachelbel's</span> Canon" aka "Canon in D major" by Johan <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Pachelbel</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<object height="405" width="500"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/DZHw9uyj81g&hl=en_US&fs=1&border=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/DZHw9uyj81g&hl=en_US&fs=1&border=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="500" height="405"></embed></object><br />
<br />
<br />
I sometimes wonder if composers would die a new death if they realized what their works were best known for. For example, would Benny Goodman be happy or disappointed that whenever "sing sing sing" came on it made people wanna eat cookies? Or when you hear Aaron Copeland's "Rodeo" you automatically say "Beef it's what's for dinner!" Same with <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Pachabel</span>, would he be OK that his Canon in D is the opening act for Wagner's "Bridal Chorus"? I don't know, but I can't figure out why with all the various classical pieces to choose from <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">Pachebel's</span> Canon gets played like it's the only one that exists! Time to switch it up people!<br />

For about 3 years now I have frequented her shops and booths, and I am never disappointed in all the sweet stuff I find! Some of my most treasured accessories have come from her, and I feel the need to praise her for aiding me in my constant quest for cute stuff!</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

On her website <a href="http://www.liberatingstyle.com/">http://www.<span class="goog-spellcheck-word">liberatingstyle</span>.com</a> not only can you find her online store, but she has a Fashion Magazine, as well as blogs, photos, and videos all geared towards plus size woman who don't want to be left out of the fashion world. It seems like every time I see her she is always working on something, or trying to figure out someway to bring a little more urban culture our way and you know I'm not mad at that! </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I have had zero motivation to do anything on it, because I'm just not inspired, lots of stuff has been going on, but I have managed to shirk all opportunities to write about them. <br />
<br />
And it never fails......e<span class="goog-spellcheck-word">verytime</span> I read Sis. Payne's blog, I think man I really wish I had themed days, so I always have something to inspire me.<br />
<br />
So, I don't care how completely unoriginal I'm being, Starting next week it's a whole new Big Girls Need Love Too...... I hope you don't mind the theft of the theme idea, but you know since when have I <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">shy'd</span> away from that?</div><div><br />

</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">This is the first of the "Not from Emily" ideas.... if you've read my blog before I bet you can guess who I stole this idea from. The Top 5 list idea came from Angie (shocking!) via the movie High Fidelity, the characters in the movie are always spotting off top 5 lists usually themed towards music because they work in a record shop. but anyway Angie has always said it's the perfect amount, sometimes there just aren't enough options to constitute a top 10, not to mention sometimes that gets long, top 5 is quick and to the point, and since I'm notorious for making things longer then I need to, I figure this is a great way to help me out with my long windiness!

Now this <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">particular</span> party I am especially proud of because I came up with everything all on my own, which is an unusual feet for me, because I am almost always stealing <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">somebodies</span> idea. . . . (mainly Angie). So I felt an incredible sense of accomplishment and it completely trumped the fact that I got zero play on Valentine's day ( I thought this was really gonna be my year! :))<br /><br /><br /><span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error">Anywho</span>. . . this years theme "the <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">Headbangers</span> Ball" and everyone was ordered to come dressed as their favorite "<span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error">Rockstar</span>" and or their own <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_5" class="blsp-spelling-error">Rockstar</span> persona!<br /><br />I was super bummed because Miss Gwen in her usual <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_6" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">genius</span> came up with the plan for her and Meredith to be <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_7" class="blsp-spelling-error">Axl</span> and Slash from Guns N Roses. And I was left shaking my fist and wishing I'd thought of it first, so then I thought maybe I'll be Courtney Love, or Janis Joplin, or Brett <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_8" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">Michael's</span> circa Rock of Love. . . . none of which panned out or made me very excited, so finally two days to go until the big show and the idea hit me that I've wanted to be Lady Ga Ga for quite sometime, why don't I just be her? Sure it was a bit of a stretch considering it was "<span id="SPELLING_ERROR_9" class="blsp-spelling-error">Rockstar</span>" themed party and people were probably expecting something different from me, but everything for the costume fell into place (after a lengthy mental debate about <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_10" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">whether</span> or not I could work the no pants look.) and I was fired up about it, and decided forget what people think. . . . it's my dance right?<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Here's what I came up with. . . . . . .<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div align="center">The Inspiration</div><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 397px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5438625436564233794" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj72gv4nbiMh-WvUXyVn58yeI7vv0HOlLW7hOTFAtEY5uCr9CP_7eiAw9DZ4tnQq3to0FimrYUtZL2rNscHph39LgRKU0PB8PRf3lRT8DriJjzDjBhiRN638PN03fEuQEHbnhZ73fxaFR4/s400/lady-gaga.jpg" /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div align="center">The Imitation</div><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7y4pO57G9miS6xXc0SbZse6Yt3rNpVAQdOZ1HMYYCuSQkKCQSJuguolA4N-__0ht0GBUur4aZfRS3oBS1z9X4-oEx0n48ob5cEhyphenhyphenXRZOHDdR4BGYzXJ8CkLT0Z3B5R7wyDZqTVclOPbQ/s1600-h/100_0707.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 359px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5438624313618210818" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7y4pO57G9miS6xXc0SbZse6Yt3rNpVAQdOZ1HMYYCuSQkKCQSJuguolA4N-__0ht0GBUur4aZfRS3oBS1z9X4-oEx0n48ob5cEhyphenhyphenXRZOHDdR4BGYzXJ8CkLT0Z3B5R7wyDZqTVclOPbQ/s400/100_0707.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />I made those glasses myself thank you!!!!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />I need to give a little shout out to the crew from <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_11" class="blsp-spelling-error">Wenatchee</span> that hit us up!

You know whatever you do, they'll still be there." ~Amy LiLast week was my sister Amy's Birthday, Wednesday we decided to do a little sisterly bonding to commerate! We did lunch, got a pedicure, and bought matching hats! All was enjoyable. . . well except for the tickle fight I had with the guy that did my toes! :) But that's beside the point.<br /><br />One of the things I love most about my sister is she always found a way to make me feel special when it was my day! Weither it was Balloons, funny cards, cute stuffed animals, or a ticket to a movie I was dying to see, she made birthdays special and It's my hope to live up to that someday!<br /><br />I'm sorry it was two days late, but I hope you know I love you Amus!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgr4xtEy-QA7vsp4uYzOFfasirkbf2P98IQ6baj0f61ufjGJxp3tIwFLBRhFyho7pu0Yici_4WxG-Elj6F8FhATYnwzim4eQI8IEsVJ4eORZnoX3I7ls1FhyolTgq8xvzzXmnLxfD08pgQ/s1600/102_1687.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 150px; HEIGHT: 200px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5410381669644962610" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgr4xtEy-QA7vsp4uYzOFfasirkbf2P98IQ6baj0f61ufjGJxp3tIwFLBRhFyho7pu0Yici_4WxG-Elj6F8FhATYnwzim4eQI8IEsVJ4eORZnoX3I7ls1FhyolTgq8xvzzXmnLxfD08pgQ/s200/102_1687.JPG" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQUhGT6dU9PcrLUZGLGytJ3-RmRxKrPd_F_gxm3TcJzGAK1OA4ynGtQOJM-xhkoX7cel2inLK9E34kSgVWASKliOWxgC4w0ldHq0O8KcdTX76vId-QblpQ6_isjyzfN-TSb4IwOhLDZZo/s1600/102_1690.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 150px; HEIGHT: 200px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5410381680109881058" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQUhGT6dU9PcrLUZGLGytJ3-RmRxKrPd_F_gxm3TcJzGAK1OA4ynGtQOJM-xhkoX7cel2inLK9E34kSgVWASKliOWxgC4w0ldHq0O8KcdTX76vId-QblpQ6_isjyzfN-TSb4IwOhLDZZo/s200/102_1690.JPG" /></a><br /></div><div> </div><div>Before </div><div> </div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpeSg7wbetTjRNZ-9m-DLi2ZIYahyphenhyphenblPYDE6i0mYMWAnMGSDxR9ubepFDsPfY3E-N8z0XnHy3JTF4nosJ6IS6Z9bCRYewURnF6i78jScZzMGkGxFrb1346skohYtCA5yuY-OdapeKfz_U/s1600/102_1691.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 278px; HEIGHT: 171px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5410381691046361442" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpeSg7wbetTjRNZ-9m-DLi2ZIYahyphenhyphenblPYDE6i0mYMWAnMGSDxR9ubepFDsPfY3E-N8z0XnHy3JTF4nosJ6IS6Z9bCRYewURnF6i78jScZzMGkGxFrb1346skohYtCA5yuY-OdapeKfz_U/s200/102_1691.JPG" /></a></div><div> </div><div> </div><div>AFTER!!!</div><div><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzPXdD3tj2h_UKxmqdEg-MxX5thI0WTxNUmqP-Ndp0zi6MG4v7xnCb2STY2VdKFG7rpvpnORauJVahqrkmhdBMxfYr-Mif60Gkf6xP0VuBhVrMo8hUHpd6DiBGQ-Hv-4-9WMpk9c-wWBA/s1600/102_1695.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 327px; HEIGHT: 224px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5410381684893167122" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzPXdD3tj2h_UKxmqdEg-MxX5thI0WTxNUmqP-Ndp0zi6MG4v7xnCb2STY2VdKFG7rpvpnORauJVahqrkmhdBMxfYr-Mif60Gkf6xP0VuBhVrMo8hUHpd6DiBGQ-Hv-4-9WMpk9c-wWBA/s200/102_1695.JPG" /></a><br /><br /></div><div></div><div><br />I felt bad though because she didn't get a cake this year. . . . .but we did get matching hats right???
