I've Been Sitting, Waiting, Wishing... Actually, Mostly Just Wishing

May I please vent a little in this post? okay, thanks for your permission and understanding.

Wednesday - After shadowing Dr. Shannon, I helped pass out fliers for CampCo Day Camps and basically did nothing after that. Lame.

Thursday - I went to the Dentist that afternoon and found out I had a cavity. Even more lame! so I have to go back on Tuesday and get that filled...mehh I feel this song is slightly fitting.

If you didn't get why that song fits...listen to it again. Also, my family went out to eat to celebrate the beginning of summer and but unfortunately I had lost my appetite right before we left...therefore I only ate half of my De"lite"ful taco, but I did eat a lot of sweet potato fries! (fun fact #87 - I love sweet potato fries a wholeee lot!)

Friday - I basically spent the whole day wishing I was at the Grand Re-Opening of California Adventure, especially because it was the Grand Opening of CARSLAND! I even changed my facebook profile to this...

... in honor of the new CarsLand's opening to the public. I seriously have to go there before I go back to BYU. I also had New Hire Training Friday evening from 5pm -10pm. So I spent my Friday night filling out paperwork, reading staff manuals, going over rules, and playing jeopardy to quiz us on what we learned. A pretty lame Friday night if I do say so myself.

Saturday - Today I had staff training from 9am - 4:30pm. Woohoo! After that I went and babysat some super cute girls from 6pm - 10:30pm. I even taught them a couple girls camp songs and after they went to bed & I cleaned up, I was able to entertain the Disney dork in me thanks to the "Destination America" channel. I watched a Disney Parks Secrets show and a Behind the Scenes of Walt Disney World. Basically I am the COOLEST college kid ever because I have the most exciting weekends! Therefore, you should really get to know me. You won't regret it. Tonight I was also wishing I was at the One Direction concert in LA. That would have been bomb. I have friends that went, and let's just say that I am pretty dang jealous.

Hopefully once I start working I will be able to have a real schedule that allows me to work and have some fun in the same week! I just love schedules and I cannot wait until my summer is scheduled. No more of this "hmm what am I going to do today? wash the car? work on my doctrine & covenants class? clean my room again? help mom? work for/help dad? watch psych? etc..."  I have been doing that for almost 2 months now and it has gotten pretty old. not gonna lie. Basically I just WISH my days were more exciting and fun. The End.

Just a Tuesday

Today I found a hole in my He is We shirt....worst day ever! But then this afternoon I found out that David Archuleta is releasing a new album on August 7!

So that helped make my day better and balance out my unlucky find on my shirt this morning! Anyway, that's all I have for now  because it has pretty much been a typical, boring tuesday! so, peace out :)

Single Rider is the Best Thing When it Comes to Disney Parks

Have you ever been to an amusement park by yourself? Because I have - it was cool to do what I wanted and the rides were fun, but it was slightly lonely. I got a free ticket to California Adventure on Thursday night and the problem was that it expired Saturday! So I had to quickly try and find someone to go with! Unfortunately 99% of my friends with passes were blocked out on Friday & Saturday. Stupid block out days! I hate them. Since I didn't want to waste the ticket I decide to fly solo! Luckily I had my phone and iPod for some entertainment, but you could basically say I was ridin' solo all day because I rode every ride all alone! Single rider was the greatest thing that day haha After about 5 hours, I had brought back lots of memories and had hit up everything I wanted to: The Little Mermaid, Toy Story Midway Mania, California Screamin' twice, Tower of Terror, Soarin', Goofy's Sky School, and of course I went and saw Aladdin the Musical(which by the way is AWESOME if you haven't seen it!)! I was stoked that I did pretty well on Toy Story, especially since I haven't played it in a year!

My high score is 202,000 and I got decently close to it! And I got "Best in Car," meaning I had the highest score out of the 8 players in the 2 cars. I wanted to have some kind of proof that I went to the park so I decided it was worth a 15 minute wait to get a picture with Mickey!

On my way out, I stopped at the Blue Sky Cellar to see the preview of CarsLand (which opens next Friday) and I could see part of CarsLand on the walkway up to it! It's already open to employees so everything was up and running.

I totally wish I was an employee so I could go in and see everything! I overheard an employee describing it to a guest while we were waiting for Aladdin to start and she said it looks just like the Radiator Springs in the movie!
\
Also, if you are planning on going to CarsLand right when it opens, you should know they are expecting a 5 hour wait for the Radiator Springs Racers!! FIVE HOURS! that's crazy....If I had a pass I probably would wait in that line though, because I wouldn't care about getting my moneys worth that day haha The employees recommend that people wait a couple months and go to CarsLand when the crowds go down. I seriously hope I get to go sometime before I head back to BYU though! Also, I have watched She's the Man three days in a row. The last two days have been because Christian wanted to watch it. I love the fact that my 9 year old brother loves she's the man haha Last night he was cracking up and it was kinda the greatest thing ever! You would have thought that he had never seen the movie before haha. Last night, Christian and I also watched some Psych... I forgot how much I love that show.

Seriously, so funny. If you have not seen Psych you need to get Netflix right now and start watching it on instant que. I think we might have another Psych marathon tonight because I think I watched one episode while up at school and I need to make up for not watching it! Anyway, thats it for now! peace out :)

Awkward and Awesome Thursday!

http://www.thedaybookblog.com/

Ya you should check out that blog because Sydney is awesome and she is basically the cutest, young mormon mom ever. I love that blog, but anyway. On Thursdays she sometimes posts this thing called "Awkward and Awesome Thursday," I think it's pretty cool so I wanted to steal her idea and give it a try.

Awkward:
-Almost ran into someone with my heavy cart Costco, they decided to make sharp turns around the corner and not look for people or carts crossing their path
-Got a random dark spot/ stain on my shirt... have no clue how it got there
-My hair decided to be a little crazy today...no headband could tame my fly aways or hair in general for that matter
-I babysat some little girls today and after half an hour of giving them piggy backs and running around with them I was sweating...so gross.
- I was making a U-turn today and a guy decide to not pay attention and turn right, almost hitting me...I had to use my horn, which I hate doing and made me feel awkward driving on the same road as him. I seriously hate honking my horn...

Awesome:
- My mom bought me blueberries at Costco!
- Got a free ticket to California Adventure from the girls I babysat. Only bummer is that it expires Saturday so I gotta go in the next 48 hours!
- I actually did something productive today and made a little money...aka babysitting!
-I don't have to take a CPR/First Aid class this year for my summer job because the certification I got for Wild Rivers last summer is good until May 2013! Woohoo!
- I watched She's the Man today; one of the BEST movies in the world!

Life Will Write the Words

Today The Rocket Summer released their new album "Life Will Write the Words"...WOOHOO!!

I got converted to their music while up at BYU (thanks to Miss Annabelle) and I couldn't wait to hear new music from them! I've been listening to their new album on PureVolume off and on today. It's pretty good, I like the album I have on my iPod right now a little better, but I think this new album will grow on me! Today you can stream the whole album for free on Pure Volume so check it out here!

My Favorite Quote Mentioned in Today's Stake Conference

L-L-LOVE

As you saw in my post the other day, He is We is one of my top 5 favorite bands, and basically I failed on going to my annual He is We Concert...

He is We Concert in San Diego - August 2011

We waited for an hour after the concert so we could meet He is We
and have them sign our phones, shirts, etc!

I've gone the past 2 years in a row and I wasn't able to make it to their concert tonight in Anaheim. So three years in a row didn't happen :(  Instead, I ended up going to Adult Stake Conference with my mom tonight. yay for growing up haha I miss my all freshman stake at BYU, especially when it comes to stake conference. I felt kind of out of place because a lot of the topics related to teaching and raising children. If you haven't figured it out yet, I am definitely not at that stage of my life yet haha I still feel like I am a kid! Anyway, since I am slightly mourning not being at the He is We concert, I decide to see if they had any new demos on their PureVolume website and I found this little gem!

I am definitely in love with this song..and it's titled L-L-Love, that's kind of ironic haha but anyway, I am stoked for their new album that will be coming out later this year. But for now, I am pretty sure this song will be on repeat for the rest of the night. If you aren't a He is We fan you should convert because they are pretty great and I love them.
That's all I've got for now, so peaceee out :)
