Heylo everyone! Welcome to my first post of 2007. Woohoo talk about excitement!!! He he.

I don't want to bore y'all with my resolutions--instead, I'll bore you with what I've been up to! :-D

On Saturday, since we're mostly a Mormon community, we had our "First Night"--St George's New Years Bash. I went to Deja Vu instead, which was an interesting movie. Then my mom, my dad, and I went to Chili's and ate--at about 10:00. Then my friend, Staci (who I haven't seen in months) calls me to tell me my friend Riki is in town. So I was going to go to First Night with Josh, Riki, Staci, and Staci's boyfriend Skyler, but our plans changed and we didn't even see each other. Then my family and Garrett watched the fireworks.

On the REAL New Years, I actually fell asleep before midnight. But before that, Zach (one of my sister's friends) "accidentally" dialed 911 and a cop showed up just to make sure everything was all right. Which was an adventure. Then we watched part of Lords of Dogtown and then I fell asleep. But Taylor and her friends all came in and jumped on me. That kind of woke me up.

Then on Monday I went to Pursuit of Happyness with Josh and Maddy, which was one of the best movies I've seen this year, but definitely the saddest. And Will Smith's kid is about the cutest kid I've ever seen. I was totally exhausted! Josh is about my favorite person in the world--he's so hilarious. Why are all my gay guy friends so funny? Hmph.

Today I bought the cutest calendar. It didn't have any pictures, but it's a dry-erase board and I really like it. :-D Then I went bowling--I totally sucked face! I got about twenty points below Maren and Annie (who's Maren's practically mute friend--honestly that girl NEVER EVER talks). And I kept having to change the ball because it was too heavy. I most <b>definitely</b> need to work out.

So, school starts tomorrow. Icky. But I have an art class and P.E., so this semester should be a lot easier, because I got rid of the classes that I have the most work in. Except english. Of course.

/rambling

Anyways, I hope you guys have the best year ever!

 Hello! Hope everyone's Christmas was fabulouso--mine was excellent!

What I Got For Christmas:
-a quesadilla maker
-season 6 (lol, I wish!!!) 5 of 24
-speakers for my iPod (complete w/ remote)
-money
-a gift card to Old Navy
-oodles of DVDs and CDs (hellogoodbye is my favorite a.t.m.)
-a Superman shirt, picture frame, and chapstick (from Maddy)
-a bunch of stuff I can't really think of right now

It's been fun playing with all my new toys. :-D I'm watching 24 (yes, again!) with my mom--it's the funniest thing in the world to hear her scream and watch her throw things at the TV. And it's making me about 10 times more psyched than I was (if that's possible) about Season 6. I think I'm going to use my money to buy Season 2 of The Office, but I haven't decided yet.  My sister, Tay, got a green iPod nano, and it's extremely cute! 

My mom decided that she's eaten too much, so she's going to buy us all a membership to Resultz Fitness Center. I found an incredibly awesome store called Grün--it has the cutest and funniest stuff, I just love it!  I'll probably spend all my money there before I buy The Office. :-P

Well, I'm going to go finish up 24, so I'll see ya! Hope you have a great break!

Now I just have to wrap everyone's and such...
*does a little victory dance*

And reading everyone's posts about 24 is making me really really hyper. Hee...


THREE DAYS TIL CHRISTMAS!

*sigh*
I absolutely adore my heat dish.
I've been freezing for weeks because my heater in the basement won't turn on. So I've had it on, full blast, all day. And it's soooo nice.

So, here's my school day:
French We watched The Scarlet Pimpernel, which was pretty good. The musical is better, though. :-D
Financial Literacy Test. It wasn't too hard--I got a B on it! WOOPPPEEEEE!!!
Lunch Studied for my math test and talked about how we're totally going to try out for High School Musical 2 (HA HA HA! since hardly any of us can sing and dance...). Oh, and then Charity and I spent the rest of the lunch hour trying to find change for a five.
Creative Writing Watched Elf. I love that show!
Algebra 2 OMFG. If I have one more test in that class, my brain will explode, and that could be messy.

Now, I'm just sitting at home, where I'm supposed to be doing my flashcards for Biotechnology (which was one of my favorite classes until the final came along!)...which, of course, I'm not. Yay for slackerness. Anyways, I have no idea what the difference between tRNA, mRNA, and rRNA is. And I don't know who to ask. I wish there was just a huge book titled DNA for Dummies.

How has everyone's day been so far? Hopefully great!

P.S. It snowed last night again! I love snow...except when I'm in it! :-D

P.P.S. I also just noticed all my userpics are 24-related right now. *sarcastic*  Wonder why?

YAY!
I'm done with my homework, and I'm not sick anymore! I'm so excited!

So, last night my friends and I had A "The Office" Marathon. I love that show so much. Except I'm not really a huge fan of the whole Karen/Jim thing going on. Actually, it's really pissing me off. I love Jim...

And I just finished a new book (for history): Don't Know Much About History by Kenneth C. Davis. It was interesting, or as interesting as a history book can get. :-P

So. Not. Fun!

But anyways, I've been sick all week. Which has been a bugger. Josh (my femmy friend) said I sounded like a whore. Since he'd know what one sounded like *snort*.

Let's see, what else is going on this week...

Senior Ball. Not going.
The Office marathon with a bunch of my buddies. Calculators in jello, jelly beans, pizza, pretzels, the works. :D LOL we're dweebs.
Homework. OODLES AND OODLES OF IT!
I read Night by Elie Wiesel. It was really good, but GOSH! what a sad book! And I have to do a report on it.
Cleaning. Ick.
Going to church.
I found more of my Europe pictures!


How's everyone's week been? Sorry my lovely commenting and posting is so...random. I seem to be apologizing for my lack of posts a lot lately...

My little sister left for Japan. We had to drop her off at the airport at 5:30 this morning. *shakes head* I'm exhausted.
I was really excited at her being gone first, being the only child and all...
But now I'm insanely bored!
Of course, I'd never tell her that. :-P

One of my friends from the Europe trip might be getting married, which is hard to imagine. I mean, only three months ago, she was gushing about a guy in our group. *shrugs* Whatever. 

Also, I'm leaving for Salt Lake City on Friday, so I won't be f-listing or posting very much until Monday (not that I do that much anyways). But yeah. We're going to the University of Utah Medical Facility and a bunch of other really cool places. And we're going ICE SKATING! Can I tell you how excited I am for it? Oh, and I'm catching up on The Office on the way up. Which reminds me: the Office is on tomorrow!! Squeee!!

How has everyone been?

AIIIIEEEE...
I really need to get off the computer.
I get on to research for a paper, and by the time I'm done with the paper I'm looking at The Office icons. WTF?
Well, anyways, I just got back from our high school's production of Thoroughly Modern Millie for the...third?...time. It was excellent, as usual! Our drama club puts on the best musicals ever.
Again, I'm getting sidetracked. DANG MY ADHD!
I'm really going now!
Everyone have a great Monday!

Sorry, guys. I've been insanely busy watching tv shows, doing homework...and quite honestly, I had nothing interesting to write.

...actually, I still don't. Oh well, I need a break from HW. So it'll be in list format, just because I want it to be!

-Mucho gracias, [info]bishwop for the icon recommendations (but i'm always looking for more!), and to[info]crashandburn for being the only person to reply to my meme. You can still pimp it if you want. :-) But I won't be sad if you don't.
-I hate math. Matrices have basically ruined my life. Okay, that was uber dramatic. But still, I hate them.
-I got The Fray CD!
-I've watched seasons 1 and 2 of The Office, and it's the frikkin' most hilarious thing ever. I love Jim, and Pam, and of course Dwight. Oh, and Michael makes me laugh too. :-D I don't know if I can wait until season 3 comes out on DVD!!
-Season 6 Preview of 24. Freaking. Amazing. How many months until January?!
-Sorry I've been bad at commenting too. I haven't been on the compy in a while...
-How was everyone's Halloween? Good, great? I was Superman...
-Homework sucks face!

YYYYEEEHHHHAAAWWWW!
The first quarter is finally over!! I'm so excited!
Well, my grades sucked face until a few hours ago, when a few of my teachers changed them.
They're so amazing!
So I'm watching Prison Break, since I don't have any homework.
I'm loving my life right now....

IT'S THE WEEKEND!
lol I seem to be using a lot of caps lately. Well, it's almost the end of the quarter, I almost have all my stuff in, and...I'm relieved. I got an A and a B on my journals (you know, the fifteen page ones), which was such a good thing. I though I'd get a lot worse.

So, we had a game yesterday against Canyon View (we won, 14-0). I was going to see all my friends from the Europe trip, but my sister called just sobbing, saying she wanted to go home. Apparently, one of our friends was being a huge jerk to her...well anyways, I was pulling out of my parking spot when I realized some IDIOT was parked too close behind me. But I tried to miss the bumper, which I thought I did until THUD! his hitch and my bumper connected. Eeeep. So I now have a big dent in the back of my mom's car. Yeah, it was cool. But yeah, it was pretty much embarrassing, because everyone's been asking if I'm okay cuz my sister told all her teachers I got in a car wreck. He he he. 

I woke up this morning and there was an article in the paper with MY PICTURE in it from my Europe trip. This girl in my group, Hilary, had been interviewed because she was oh so wonderful. I guess no gold star for me. :-P But everything she said in the interview just made me want to laugh and barf at the same time.  Oh well...I guess you could say I'm jealous cuz I wanted to be in the paper....

Well, that's all for now. I'm off to do chores! Later!

So.
My grades aren't as bad as I expected them to be.
I have a B+ in Honors US History!!!
Weeeee!
And I got a B on my Algebra 2 test.
I guess it's just a B day... :-) 
And speaking of school...
Yesterday I turned in my English journals. Well, I had completely forgotten to put my essay in my car. So I asked my teacher, Mrs. Smyly, if I could turn it in tomorrow. Ha. Yeah right. She told me I had to turn it in by 3 or she wouldn't take it. So I had to drive all the way up to my house (An hour there and back), and missed lunch to turn in that stupid paper. Oh, I just wanted to kill her. I was SOOO mad! Grrr.

AHH Prison Break!

SLK;DAFJKSKLA;KD LOST IS TOMORROW!!!
I'm so excited...it's going to be a goodun! *beams*

Well, that's all for now...toodles, loves!
