Fall 2009

I love Cedar City. Wow, I never thought those words would come out of my mouth! :) Just kidding! I've almost lived here a entire month and I'm not even home sick yet! It feels like I have only been here for a week! I miss everyone back in Lehi but being away from all the drama and being out on my own is so refreashing!
School is going....well...ok. I like my classes...they are just soo long! My math class isn't too bad yet. Except since im kind of dumb, im in a class with a lot of stupid freshmen and some of them are so annoying! I honestly feel like im in High school again. Me and a couple other "older" people sit in the back and just try to not pay attention to the loud annoying girl in front. I love my english class! I know its going to be so much fun, even if I have to write long papers. My two Criminal Justice classes are going to be really fun, if I can manage to stay awake for them. I already fell asleep once hah. In almost every class there is at least one cute boy....so thats really exciting!
I am having so much fun living with Raquel. She is such an amazing person and I feel so blessed to be able to spend time with her. If you didn't already know she is the president of my Sorority Alpha Phi and she has already done so many amazing things for Theta Sigma. Last spring we won Organization of the Year from SUU and it really was almost all because of her. I hope that I can be as good of a leader as she is.
Presidential Ambassadors is so much fun! Im a Task Force Leader so im in charge of my own little group and my group is the BEST! They are so excited to be able to give tours and to recruit and it makes me excited! I just love love love it! If we all get certified for tours in 3 weeks then we are having a BBQ!
Natalie will be proud...I signed up for Institute! Im really excited for it. I have alot of things in my life I need to change and I know that Institute will help me get through all the stuggles I have been having in my life.
The only thing that could be better right now is if Me, Lainey Linzee and Lacee where together more! Its so weird to spend almost 24/7 with them and then not see them every day. I miss them and they are still my best friends! Lainey wants to rush...how exciting!
Anyway...I love SUU and this year is already turning out to be better than last. Last fall I didn't really want to be here, and changing my attitude has helped so much!
I also decided for my readers :) that I would throw in a little quote at the end of each blog...kind of to inspire..and to be funny. So enjoy!!
"When you feel like giving up, remember why you held on so long in the first place."

My Sisters!

I honestly don't know what I would do without the love and support from my sisters in Alpha Phi! I have been with someone almost every second since the pageant and I haven't really had time to just sit and think about Miss Iron County. I am sad that the outcome didn't turn out the way I wanted it to, but thankfully I have so many sisters that wouldn't let me get discouraged!

Right before I left for the school I had tons of facebook messages! (Thanks Ash for the advice!)

Timian and Raquel ran backstage just before I was about to go on and gave me flowers!

I could hear Kristy, Val, Raquel, and Timian screaming for me the entire night, and they even made me a poster!

And after they all told me I did really good.



I don't know really how good I did, but I know that even if they where lying to me, it would only be because they love me! :)


And I of course can't forget my REAL sister Natalie! Thanks sis for being there for me, even when you couldn't ;)


I went into work today and Heather Larson was working with me, I told her about the pageant and how it was hard when people asked me how it went all I can say is. "Oh, I had fun...but I didn't win." Its been really hard not to shout "I LOST OK!?" She told me that I should just start making up stories on why I didn't win....


"Well, I found out I was pregnant right before I went on stage, and I decided to let the judges know."

"The director found out I took some nude pictures a year ago and they told me I couldn't win."

"I decided I should step down and let another girl win, Iron County just isn't a big enough title."


Of course non of these where true, but Heather made it a lot easier for me to tell people I lost.


Anyway, the point is I don't know where I would be today without Alpha Phi. Rush is coming up soon and I can't wait to share Alpha Phi with another pledge class, I feel bad for girls who aren't a part of my sorority because they have no idea what its like to have this big of a family!

Memories

I found some of these pictures on my Computer and thought it would be fun to show some of them off!
This was one of my best friends at Meadow. Her name is Monet and we both where in Spanish Immersion. My mom would babysit her everyday before school and then after school I would go over to her house and we would hang out at her house. I would sleep over there just about ever weekend. We did alot together, we made dances up to Backstreet Boys, and we learned all the words to "Baby Got Back".
Jarom moved into the ward when I was eleven and I always kind of had a crush on him. It was back in the days when kids would "Go out" which each other, and he was my boyfriend for just about all of Jr. High. There where a group of us that would hang out all the time, and we where in the same ward and all best friends! Me and Jarom liked each other for six years! We are still friends, but the days of love are way behind us!
This is one of my favorite memories of Meadow! It was in third grade and I stole some of my sisters make up and brought it to school for picture day, me and my friend Shantel put it on right before pictures and I thought I was so hott! In the class picture I have so much attitude, its a wonder how I had friends!

Every year my ward would build a float for the the Lehi Round-Up Days Parade. I don't remember why I was dressed up like Raggidy Anne, but even though im way little, I still remember sitting on the float....I don't think I was happy.
