dam, arizona, page






once upon a time me and a few select roommates [sherry, jade, becky] and brant. made our way trippin on the road down to little page airzona. we made our way down on friday afternoon, and well it is a very scenic drive...sorta except it was in the dark so i honestly don't know. when we got to page we went to beckys house got some pizza and breadsticks of course for me :] cause im a pizza hater. then we watched the last song and all of us cried. after the movie we played twister and i dominated i think....haha and we played lego creator.we had a slumber party in beckys living room,, it was a pretty fun night. the next morning we woke up took forever to get ready,, haha anyway we headed up to horseshoe bend and it was super cool. apparently i am an idiot for hanging off the edge well just with my feet but hey,,, i like living on the edge hehe it was so fun and we stayed there for about an hour. after we left there we went and ate a little place called slackers and the food was quite delicious but a little pricey after we went to a little fair type thing called the balloon regatta they just had a bunch of little booths for random stuff. ill explain it more later. but after that we went to another look out and you could see the dam,, dont worry we made plenty of "dam" jokes such as dam lights, dam workers, we took dam pictures,, and there were tours of dam aka dam tours :] after we went to the lookout we actually went to the dam and it was fun and we took some pretty cool roomie pictures. after we went to the dam we went over to lake powell walked down to the water touched it played in the sand a little wrote some secret messages ;] and then walked back it was pretty epic.  after....we headed back to the balloon regatta where basically they get like 20-30 HOT AIR BALLOONS and blow them up in the street and they light them and it looks freaking amazing! they gave out these little cards that were just like baseball cards but they had the balloons on them..they were supposed to be for little kids but hey i think i still count i got a few and i feel pretty awesome. we even got to push the button for one of the balloons it was awesome. i'm really glad i went and got a little break from college aka cedar city & campus housing. it was getting a little depressing! so thanks becky for a great weekend i loved it! the end enjoy the pics :]

halloween,,november,,next semester schedule

this past weekend was of course halloween weekend, on friday for my popular music class there was a costume contest and i dressed up as a fairy,, one of my many halloween costumes of this year. i got full credit for my costume,, partly cause we had to do an action to go with ours and i flew around the stage, died, and then got clapped back to life..it was an epic performance. lets just say i felt completely ridiculous! anyway after class we went back to appartment and hung out until that night when the institute trunk or treat and dance was. of course i needed a new costume for that night so i was a rockstar,, complete with a guitar hero guitar. we were the coolest kids there obviously, we had a fairy [jade],, a hippie [tstar],, a biker [becky],, and a couple of fat tourists [nia&tylerhoward] oh ya and me,,. we danced all night and it was a blast. the next day we woke up late but hey it was saturday,, so we just kinda bummed around all day i make a paper chain counting down till my birthday,, which is in june,, haha its about 10 lengths of jade long :] it makes me pretty happy,, everyday i rip off the piece and write what i did that day,, its pretty cool. after i finally finished my super long chain i watched a marathon of the show NCIS and it was the horror ones, which was not exactly the greatest idea to watch,, because one i was in the apartment by myself, two it was dark and halloween weekend, and three i'm kind of a whimp. but i didnt die or get eaten or attacked by any scary things so that is always good. the next day we woke up about 20 minutes before we needed to leave for church to see our awesome roommate [nia] speak in sacrament meeting. she did a great job and church was just all around great. my ward is pretty great. after church we watched cheesy halloween disney movies, it was wonderful. sunday was a pretty good day. this week has definitely had its ups and downs,, ive had tests and the apartment has been a mess,, i felt sick for a day and missed all of my class,, and the registration for classes next semester has started,, its been stressful and basically me and jade are pretty home sick. its not helping that i cant talk to my boy [garrett howard] very much but this week can only get better right? i really hope it does cause c103d [jade&i] definitely needs some cheering up. anywayy a few of us roomies are going to the grand town of page arizona with ze becky cause that is where she is from. im pretty excited about it and it should be a good break from the stresses of school and life! thats all for now!
