our death trap

Well, the last 3 days has been a sick situation...literally.
With the flu, mono, and 2 colds in our apt, I'm surprised Estef came out clean, although she feared breathing in our apartment...I don't blame her.
I was able to go to one class on Monday, and then I just stayed home the rest of the day, but did run to the store for a little. It made me sad that I started feeling worse once I got back, but it makes sense. That night I decided I would rather sleep with the mono, not the flu (the greater of the two) so I slept in brittneys room.

Tuesday - I missed 2 classes, went to math for 40minutes and walked home early, I'm surprised I didn't die on my way up to the Ricks building. I took a math test, kicked my butt... I was in there 2 hours and the testing center closed so I had to just randomly fill in ten questions on the bubble sheet. Once again, I slept in Brits room, hehehe I loved watching her watch Gilmore Girls, that poor girl is in such a daze, can't eat much, and poor mon mon looks dead everytime I dared walking into our room :P

WEDNESDAYYYY I called melina, poor girl is pretty dang sick in utah too.... so I pretty much decided I would rather be with sick melina with a cold, then mono and flu.... ha ha, so at 5:30 after I finished my class, I randomly packed and left for Ogden :) The drive was nice, it felt like only me and the road, seemed like no one else was driving. I got to Ogden at 8 and took care of my melina, bought some tissues with "vicks" in it...melina hates them, I would suggest not buying them... and then we went to bed...ha ha I love being in Utah.........ahhh home sweet home.
p.s. happy birthday dad!!

To my dear sweet utah.

Prettyyy much, I was so ready to come to Utah on Wednesday night. I had a little break down with Melina... I can't really explain it, I'm not sure, but I just have something against being in Idaho a lot. Many can say its not like Utah is much better, but for me going to Utah is the best thing in the world.................

Sooo.. On Thursday the 29th I got all the homework and everything I needed to finish done before 4pm. at 4:40 we (Kara, Jenny, and I) headed off to Odgen...as I felt rather sick. Once we were to Odgen, we made prefect timing to end up at Melina's dorm the exact same time as her. Thinking we would be in and out really fast (hopful wishing that melina would be faster then ten minutes) We all piled up in Julez and drove to SLC. We dropped Jenny and Kara off in sandy right off the freeway. It was soooo good to see Katie again. I miss that girl like crazy....she is my favorite! I almost wish she wasn't married still, so I would have her around in rexburg :P

After we dropped them off me and Meli headed to T-ville for what we figured to be a LAMEEE haunted house. We walked in about 3minutes before it closed and went through.... For a 15 buck thing... it was horrible, I would say it should of costed 7 bucks. The parking lot was more exciting as we were waiting for Dani to show up, people kept knocking on my windows and pulling chainsaws out freaking me and Melina out... they even opened my car doors! So inside the only exciting thing for me was pretending to act scared.... and this one girl that kept following me around. (maybe cause I blew her a kiss and said bye cause she kept staring at me!!) Anyyyyways....after THAT...we went to taco bell and headed back up to Odgen to sleep.
FRIDAYYY- oh yes, its only friday? yeah thats what I thought. I love driving to Utah on thursday nights! So friday. Melina slept in and missed alllllll of her classes. Me such a bad friieennd!!!! We ate some food, and went to the store with sarah so she could get wood to make a sculpture. During that time I had melina model for me a little bit! :)


AFTER our CUTE pics
We both headed off to work. Melina is sick of best buy...and I got sick of being stuck in traffic on my way to work in American Fork. Dang constuction that is everywhere! oh well though, my manager loves me and wouldn't care if I was late honestly..and I was. I worked for 2 hours. met like 5 new people that worked there...but at least I liked them...and I liked hearing the dirt from the last two months I wasn't there. After work my amazing Melina drove down from Ogden to sleep ovaaa...but uh oh...she started to feel sick :( My fault I'm sure... :( sorry meli..but we still had a fun night and we got some treats from our fave maverick :)
Saturday... oh whoops. Melina, was I suppose to wake you up at 8 so you could drive back to Ogden...? oh yea I was... AND I TRIED TWICE!!!!!!! you just kept moaning and ignoring me. I'm glad you were able to cancel your group meeting and that I DIDN'T wake you up so I could hang out with you all day... yes...that was my evil plan :) I'm glad we got to eat Jimmy Johns together before you rushed off to work. I, myself went to work at 5... and worked only 2 hours because I did not feel well...even though after I was off I went shopping to try on clothes.. haha. Melina. my dear, she drove down ONE MORE TIME to Lehi. Could she be any more amazing? It made me superrr happy, even though she got to my house super late. We started watching P.S. I love you, but then just fell asleep cause we both felt rotten.
SUNDAYY. 5am. I wake up to Melina trembling and in pain......awhhh now she is even more sick than I ever was...plus she has a nightmare. So being the good friend I am, and since we went and bought meds last night, I helped her out and made sure she fell back to sleep, and give her some pills to pop ;). We had yummy waffles in the morning and then once again she had to rush off to leave me and go to the airport. I still had a good morning though. I stayed home and watched some conference since I didn't feel that great.. I took a nap and drove home 2 girls back to rexburg. The drive wasn't too bad, I almost got pulled over...but the unlucky son of a gun right behind me did instead...wooo, I was lucky. I talked to Jenny the entire time and found out we have a lot more in common than I ever thought... and it was really cool to finally talk and learn about her. I'm excited to work with her again in december.
So after the drive, I about had no voice from chatting so much, and I got home at 10:30 to a house full of sick girls. One has mono, one has the flu, the other girl has something like I have...pretty much a cold.. and then yes, there is me, we are just a big bunch of sicklings!
I'm already ready to come back to Utah where not so many people are sickkkk! ha ha.

All in all...

School was rough this week... and I know it will be even more rough this next week, cause its midterms!!!! eecck I have so much to do!!
On Wednesday this past week, My sis Nicole drove up to Rexburg and that night we went and got custard at my favorite place ever... BRC's!!
Thursday - Nicole went to my first class with me, after we drove around the burg, and Nicole was surprised with how much Rexburg has changed. For dinner we went to Applebees, mmm, ran to walmart, where me and rosie played with masks on, but got in trouble for taking pictures, and then we came home and watched a movie.

Friday mornin I went to class, aced my test I had, and after made amazing nutella crepes for everyone. After we drove to IF and went to the mall, and I got a cute new sweater :) and we just shopped around, it was really fun. We rushed off to Rexburg to have dinner at craigos, it was amazing and yummy! I can't believe I have never been there.
Saturday Nicole left early in the morning. I did free laundry at Brittney's friends house, who were a married couple that was out of town. That night I went to the hot springs with Brittney, Danny, and some of his family. Wow those were amazing. I loved it. They also tricked me into saying that there was a small pool with such hot water that it felt freezing and your body doesn't know what to do to adjust to it....so I went it and pool and they totally tricked me...turns out it was a ice cold pool.. JERKS :P
and
Sunday I went to church for 2nd time..which really was more like my first, it was fun, and more so funny cause I knew no one there even though I have been in rexburg a while.
Monday I went to my one morning class, in the afternoon had an intense conv with Britt which rang up lots of unanswered questions that we attempted to find on the internet...hahah that was funny. In the evening for FHE we went to big juds for dinner, it was pretty good. The 2 cups of hot coco I got both were watered down which I was bummed about.. and on the way home me and Brit had our unanswered questions answered through Danny...haha that was fun.
Tuesday - Romina started to get sick which worried all of us. I have been missing melina a lot...specially because I didn't see her this weekend, and she has been really busy so I haven't talked to her a lot :(
Wednesday - ha ha guess what. Yep I have a sore throat... figures. I did a lot of homework tonight and took a test preping for my weekend in UTAH!!! :)

My "I need a break" weekend

Dear Friday-----
I missed my class this morning cause I had so much to do before I left at 4 for Utah, like my math retake, which went okay. The girl that drove me down was awesome. She was married, from Utah also,and it was just us in the car, but we talked the ENTIRE car ride, I really haven't ever talked that much in the drive from Idaho to Utah, I'm used to just having music on...it was a blast though. She dropped me off at Best Buy and I got Melina's car and went to the Mall as I waited for her to get off work, and wow I miss shopping at malls! it was sad knowing I had no money to buy all the cute things I liked.... but maybe thats a good thing :P Sooooooo.. Melina finally got off work, almost an hour late, and we rushed to Applebees due to hunger. It was really yummy, and of courseee nice to see my best friend again, she makes me so happy, and I was totally needing a break from Idaho (already? yes already, even though it was less than a week I had been there)
When we got to her dorm I found out that the Jeans i got from China, the True Religions... I SOLD THEM ON EBAY FOR 100.... yay profit! So that made me happy, and again, we just passed out for bed that night.
Saturday Melina went to work early morning once again, and I slept in for a while hahah sucker :P but I thought I would do homework...umm nope I just talked to sarah and shipped my jeans off in the mail. When melina came home we hung out and at 6 we went to the movie Couples Retreat , which I thought was really funny, I liked it a lot, altough there was one part that was a little dirty, but I couldn't help but laugh at it. Me and melina accidently got a LARGE popcorn, it was huge, and both of us are too shy to tell the guy we didn't want it, but the sad thing is we pretty much ate all but an inch of the popcorn...ha ha, gross. After we went to the store and bought items to make nutella crepes :P when we got home we made some delicious crepes which I had like 3 of them, we watched the end of Men in Black with Klysta and then we passed out, but this time we slept on the futon in the living room...ha ha it was so comfy.
Sunday I had to re-make crepes again under Melina's order :P and everyone had a few more, so pretty much I'm pro now :) Afterwards we made a music video, which I still need to put together, but it is really funny, we did it to Black Eyed Peas - Lets get it started...it was a lot of fun recording and hanging with Meli and Klysta. Me and Melina went out and got a bite to eat, watched some TV again, and slept on the futon again :P

Monday- we got up in the morning, everyone went to classes and I waited for my ride to come and pick me up. My ride was an hour late and unfortunately Melina's first class was canceled so we both ended up doing nothing while being stuck in two places ha ha. The drive to Rexburg was good though, I liked the girl and we talked most the time, and it made me really tired so I just stayed home and slept. So pretty this week was amazing and I had a great time.

I also have finally decided that I am horrible at always saying random, dumb, unnecessary comments that don't really make sense, i'm so in my own world, I just need to keep lots of my thoughts to myself.

could I get anymore behinddd....?

Yes friends, I went to Utah last weekend, and I went to Utah again this weekend!!! hahah
two Fridays ago was great (melina's birthday), I went to class, hung out/packed...and drove to Utah with Jen, Jess, and some other girl I didn't know. Once we got to Riverdale, after getting lost, Jen dropped me off at Best Buy after a QUICK drive from Rexburg... dang gurrrrrrrl! hah. We hung out there for a little, saw cute little Melina working in her blue collared shirt, and they left.. and I waited for Meli to get off work. It was so excited to see her on her birthday!!! We went bowling with Melinas rooomates, it was fun... I sucked (I think I got a 53) hahah but we took lots of fun pictures and then after me, mel and sarah went and ate and I got a CHICKEN sandwich... so much for not liking meat anymore(some meat I still don't like though) but I loved the sandwich! oooh and before bowling Sarah made Meli a cute cake and we ate some, mmm, and then we just chilled the rest of the night, it was nice.
Saturday morning - work for melina. We got up bright and early, I took melina to work, and I told her I had a surprise for her when she got off of work and I would pick her up (how awesome is she? she trusts me and lets me use her car all day) anyways, I treated myself to some yummy Nutella Crepes at Ihop...hah, i felt like a loser being there alone, but I really enjoyed the food. After I went to a CAR WASH! (her car was pretty bad, mostly on the outside) and before I left, sarah told me not to wash it and put too much effort into it cause it was just going to rain...hah, but I didn't believe her.
At the car wash I realized I had no cash but two dollars, and I didn't know you couldn't swipe a card for the self car wash, so with one dollar I had already bought an air freshener, and with the other buck I got 4 quarters, and searched melina's car for another 4 so I could start the wash. With one minute left to wash her car clear, the owner came up to me offering a free air freshener (hahahah) so as I was picked what smell to get, there was 30secs left and the thing kept beeping annoyingly, so I was like "hangggg onnn" and I went to find another quarter but couldn't, so the wash ended with a completely soapy car, but I got a free air freshener, yeah?
So after that failed, I went to the Auto-car wash and swiped a card for the $4 wash so I could get the soap off. After that the owner walked up to me AGAIN, handing me a drying towel saying "You can leave with a wet car! why didn't you get the carwash with the dryer included?" So I told him I already spent 3 bucks on the other one, so he then said he would pay for another wash so it would dry it off....HAHAH (thats THREE washes now!!)

So after that, I detailed melina's car, made it look beauitful inside, and felt happy, even though that was such a long process....heh. I watched conference with Meli's amazing roommate Klysta, and I picked Mel up at four. She was sooooo happy about her car :) it was awesome, so after that she took me to Pizza Factory...YUMMMMMMMmmmm, thats like my favorite. We got a pizza and Pasta, which may I say was amazing, tortelini!!! And we stuffed ourselves full. After we drove to Lehi together, which was so fun, and she let me drive. I miss driving everywhere with her like we did in the spring and summer, it brought up lots of fun memories. We stopped by Maverick, got some goodies, and went to my house to watch a movie, which really just turned into sleep. Yay! oh and P.S., I miss my bed...and bedroom, and just being in Utah everyday.

Morning came, I watched some conference, Melina left me to go to a Birthday Lunchhh, and oh yeah.... it RAINED, so those 3 car washes did nothing lol. Jen picked me up at 2. On our way back to Idaho, just 3 of us this time, I had a feeling jen was going to get pulled over, but I thought it was just a whatever thought, so said nothing... but sure enough (after jen and jess fought about what music they listen to on sunday...which I found funny) jen got pulled over right out of Blackfoot...SAD! She got a ticket for $75 going 11 over and we returned to Rexburg.

Monday we went to some Random city out of Rexburg for FHE, and not going to lie, it was sooo fun, we played games and had some delicious puff pudding stuff, but getting to the city was the hard part... we kept getting lost lol. But that is what makes things fun...if you aren't alone getting lost haha. So pretty much..my FHE family is awesome.

Things with Estef still make all of us laugh, and her friends who we call "hobos" or should I say "Hoe-bo's" They just like to walk in, with the bags of food, cook, sleep, whatever, and we don't like the way that they dress most the time, but we are handling it good, because we are always able to laugh it off.... because as me and Brit say "IT'S HARD TO BE H--O-T!" ......I also like how she mostly just talks to me, but its cool, I think she is a cool girl, with friends that don't always think about what they do. OHHHHHHHH and I forgot to tell about the one time I stole her friends car because he left his keys on the couch, so I went to move it a few spaces, and umm YEP he noticed and flipped out...but when they asked about it, I said nothing. ha ha, I didn't want to get punched in the face, but it was such a rush taking someones car I didn't know and moving it hahah. (the funniest thing is he was like "THEY USED MY GAS TOO! THAT MAKES ME SO pissed!" Yeah right kid. hahah
This past week was hard, I was overwhelmed with classes, with what I had to do, and mostly my math class. I thought about all of that too much, and was just putting myself down, it was even making me have sad dreams where I felt like everyone was putting me down...maybe it was cause it was that time of the month too?? hmm? But I made an effort to start working out more, to get strong again, I've realized how weak I've become :(...But whatever I sucked it up on Thursday night... all of my overwhelming non-sense thoughts, and my Mighty Monica invited me to the Rex to go get Sub Zero ice cream... Mmmm, and I then snuck into a 4 buck movie.. Cloudy with a chance of meatballs..... it was so funny, so I never left even thought I thought I would of, plus Monica's friends are cool so I enjoyed being there with a break about thinking of my homework.

So since we are pretending this is Thursday, tomorrow yes, I am going to Utah, AGAIN. could I be anymore predictable??? Probably. Ha Haaaa. Bet that never crossed your mind. Out of 5 weekends, only one has been spent in Rexburg the whole weekend, I'm such a home body!

To my bestest friend in the world

Melinaaaaaaa.............. HAPPY 20th BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!! (old fart)

So Melina is my best friend, obviously.
I love her guts, she is the sweetest girl I know and I am so lucky to have her as my closest friend. I have "known" her since May 29, 2007, that was a funny day, she was quite the rebellious girl back then :P but she is a good, nice, sweetheart now :) Truth be told, I wasn't very close to her until right around this time last year (she bought a new car too, she thinks that's why I wanted to become better friends with her...hahah not true meli!) So yes, I always liked her as a friend, but when I finally realized I wanted her in my life everyday, to talk to, laugh with, all the above, was after I came up to school in Rexburg, and realized how much I missed being with her, and how she was such an amazing person.
K honestly people, she really is the nicest girl in the world, too nice sometimes and I get after her about it.. ha ha :) So all I can say is the past (almost) year has been the best year of mine ever, she changed my life, made me happier (awwww tender) :), and she is just awesome and amazing. I never thought I would ever have a best friend who knew everything about me, who cared so passionately about me, and about life. Who I can't go more than 4 hours without talking to, who I want to spend time with them every chance I can because she is so great and I never want to miss out on whats she's doing...yeah, that's melina.
One of the best things about her is she is so friendly!! Every single person I introduce her to, they fall in love with her, so seeee, I'm lucky :) ha ha. I wish I could explain all of the things we have done together, all the long nights, all the tears we have cried [I always tell her that the rock I used to be is now just a bunch a pebbles everyone steps on.... I'm such a baby now! hah, I used to never cry. So I blame her :)]
What else, I love this girl, she is so funny, I never get sick of being with her, she likes the kind of music I love, so since we are both consistently listening to music, we can listen to that music while we are together and it works out perfect :)
We both have made many visits for eachother, murray- rexburg, rexburg - murray, odgen-rexburg, rexburg-odgen, lehi-murray, murray lehi, SLC-murray, all the above....all I can say is it has been a lot of worth while driving and lots of memories :)
I'm thankful for all the times she has forgiven me [and the same on my part ;)] and that each of our fights, along with lots of tears, just brought us closer together. She is always positive for me, she doesn't let me be left in a bad mood, and I know I can always rely on her to make me happy. I trust her 100% and she will always be my best friend.
I love you melina :)
This video is for you, and our friendship and great relationship
:) thank you for being around in my life.
