senior.. wow.

2008-09-16T06:57:00.002-06:00

holy moses, how time flies. im a SENIOR! finally. seems like the day would never come. haha. i ordered all my graduation announcements and my class ring this week. it just seems to crazy that it is finally all coming together. almost un real.

things like this are what really kill me. ha look how little we were. 7th grade!

me and my friends at a dance, doing the 09 sign with our hands.

it's just nuts to think it's almost over! but at the same time, i couldn't be more excited.

for those of you that read this to keep up on what im doing.. after graduation i plan on moving to new york city where im hoping to go to the New York Institute of Art. but it all depends on what plans God has in store for me. :]

weekend with the girls :]

2008-08-18T18:37:00.003-06:00

this last weekend was honestly a blast. it was so much fun. my best friend, chelby, her mom, sister and sister's friend all went into sandy and stayed at a hotel, and shopped at south town on and off all weekend. it was so much fun. us girls got all of our school shopping done. it was so nice to take a few days off work and just relax! we swam in the pool, stayed up late and just talked, and plus shopped :] my personal favorite.

these are just a few of the many pictures but it seriously was one of the best weekends that i have ever had.

this is what i love about being single. plus it gives me time to just wind down and have some fun. without the stress of a boyfriend. im to young. ha ha.

my favorite holiday

2008-07-05T00:16:00.002-06:00

this holiday is my absolute favorite. i love everything about it. it seems to be a day when everyone is happy! i love all the festive creations of others. i love being around so many people that are all enjoying it with you. i love the parade (although i was slightly disappointed this year because there was basically no floats.) but i love everything about this holiday.

mike and i went to the salt lake bee's game for our 4th. usually, we go to his brother rocky's, but he didn't have a big get together this year. being at the game was so much fun! for one, im a huge baseball fan. i love watching it! and the firework show was awesome. of course, my pictures aren't to good, but oh well. :]

i think the one think that makes me like this holiday so much, is that it reminds me that we are a free country. we can do what we please. we can say what we want, do what we want.. anything. and that means so much to be. when i think about the men and women fighting to keep us free, it just means that much more. and now, that i have a brother in law that will be leaving for the middle east, it makes me love being free even more then usual. because now it's not just men and women. it's my family.

i love america. i love living in a free country. i love everything about the usa.

saying goodbye. no. see ya later!

2008-06-22T13:43:00.003-06:00

having to say goodbye to your sister is the hardest thing to do. i honestly think that! we haven't been that close the past few months, but she is still my sister. we have that bond that no one else has. and when i had to say goodbye to her, knowing that i would only see her every once in a while, here and there, for the next 4 years.. i balled my eyes out. it's so hard! they haven't even made it to NC yet, but I wish they could turn around and come right back to utah. i wish my sister still just lived a mile away, and i could go hang out with her at her house, and go have lunch with her at work. but this surely does suck. she is gone. and i only get to see her a few times a year now. this is way hard. beyond hard. i want my sister back. :[

but liz and jud - i wish you guys the BEST of luck! i hope that everything goes great for the 2 of you, and i hope that life ends up being just the way you want it too! i love you both with all of my heart and will miss you guys! xoxoxo! jen.

so my friend chelby has a 5 month old son. and everytime i see him, i just love him more and more! he is so stinkin cute! he is the only one that feels like a real nephew to me, even though he isn't. but it's because he is right down the street ya know? i can just go down and see him! and i just love him to death!

sorry for all you readers. my blogs are always very small. and probably pretty pointless. but it's just the things that affect me in life, so i hope you like, at least a little bit :]

court.

2008-06-12T12:58:00.002-06:00

i went to court the other day, about the wreck.

i had to stand before the judge and all this CRAP! but it ended up going great. the judge dropped my ticket from the wreck (which would have been $190) and took it off my record (as long as i go to one, 45 minute class) and fined me $80! he saved me loads of money, and now it's not on my record. WAHOOOOO!

but it was still nerve wracking. ha ha. it all went okay though.

good ol judge pitt. sweet old man.

bridals.. by me! what!?!?

2008-06-10T18:10:00.001-06:00

FAVORITE:

so as a wedding gift, im printing all the ones she really liked.. and blowing them up, and framing them. so that she can have them for display at the wedding!

i know they are nothing great, i've seen some that blow my mind, and these don't. but i think i did an okay job, for just using a small, sanyo vpc-e740.

shook up.

2008-06-01T22:27:00.002-06:00

big time.

so much to cover..

2008-03-04T14:02:00.003-07:00

me and my friends have had even more "catching up" time, which has been way nice. all we do is laugh, laugh and laugh! we do extremely stupid things, but things that only we would do. and we just make them so much fun! in reality, it's just random stupid things, but there is just something about it when we are all together. :] it makes it amazing!!

well, some of you might be glad to hear that after 11 months, i pulled my head out. ha ha. i dumped mike the night before valentines day- but we still "went out" so it became more official almost 2 weeks ago. and needless to say, i've never been happier. out of all honesty, the times i had with mike were amazing, and i learned so much from our relationship. but eh, who wants a boyfriend. ha ha. seriously though- life just keeps getting better! i've had a blast, which is what it's all about. :]

one thing to mention- i got my prom dress. yippie doodle! im so happy. and we have started promenade practice, and our dance is quite a cute one. :] and my dress is modest, and lime green. pretty cute huh!? im also wearing castro's with it. hehe, i will be looking amazing that night! woo!

tonight i get to experience something thats not like any other.. we are playing donkey basketball at my school! should be pretty interesting. i'll be sure to post some pictures when it's all said and done.

the only bad thing i have to say..

i have to find a way that i can come up with 200 dollars a month. and, obviously i don't work at the daycare anymore, just because i need to put school first. all i need is something i can do like 3 times a week, from the time i get out of school till like 6 or 7 or whenever my mom will let me come home, and just nanny or something. something that won't consume all of my time, but that i can still make money from. and i just don't know what im going to do. :[

im open to suggestions.

b-andilism :]

2008-02-24T10:26:00.002-07:00

p.s im single now. ha ha.

i cut my hair.

sadly.

but i love it!

thus far in 2oo8

2008-01-26T12:04:00.000-07:00

well, life has been crazy so far in 2oo8! that is for sure! my year started off with a bang....

driving down the street when BAAMM something lands right in front of me. it was one of those panels that gaurd the street lights.. well, it fell off hitting my car. scary.

then, that same night- i got a speeding ticket. :[ i've only had my lisence since november so this pretty much sucked. i ended up paying $85.oo. Uggh. :[

third.. i was pulling out of the high school, and some stupid punk rear ended me. great eh?

maybe i just shouldn't drive.

but on a better note - my sister and jud announced their engagement! it's a good thing and a not so good thing. i love jud and he and my sister together are great. but it's my sister. we've become really close so it is sad seeing her getting married. it will be different for all of us. she will be living back east somewhere so we will only see her on holidays. it makes me want to cry because it is all going to happen here so soon.

but for now we are all helping to plan the wedding- to make it the best day possible for my sister!
