Happy Birthday to Me?(!)

Well hello there. It's my birthday. SURPRISE!

It's been a little bit because... well basically because I didn't feel like blogging/didn't have the time. :D

So this past weekend was a fun one :) It all began Friday night with sushi at Kinjo with Holly and Tyler (Scott's cousin and his cousin's wife - I've mentioned them before but I'm too lazy to go find where). And it was delish! I love Kinjo now :D (But I always get the same things...and I likely always will). Afterwards we headed over to Starbucks and Chapters for a hot beverage and a wander and to chat. Then it was back to our place for a bit for even more chatting. :D
Thanks Holly and Tyler, we'll have to do it again soon!
(Sorry you couldn't come up Nani...next time!)

Saturday was a nice relaxing day in the morning... and then in the evening it was my birthday fiesta! Benifred and Francesca came and we made tacos and commenced the beginning of the murder mystery Francesca had created. Basically, we were all different characters and we had to find who had murdered Senor Sanchez! Francesca gave us each clues that we were able to use to question each other.
It was really fun - thank you!
And we got a kitty cake :D
And Sunday was the Calgary Temple dedication. Which was also good...though our broadcast cut off part of the way through...

Last night, was dinner with Scott's family. Thanks everyone! Nice to see you all again :)!

Which brings us to my actual birthday today! The double deuce. Nothing too exciting...but it's nice to hear from everyone. Thanks for all the birthday greetings ;)

So here's 22 things...
A) you may not know about me
B) are on my mind
C) are birthday related.
So here goes!

1. I actually haven't had many birthday parties that weren't family related. When I was 18, I had a little gathering of friends and when I was 21...I had another. But when I was young, I don't even remember!
2. I don't really remember my birthday's when I was younger at all. Am I senile? Can you remember yours??
3. I really like ice cream cake. We still have a quarter of the DQ ice cream cake seen above :3
4. I never thought I'd be married before I was 22...not at all!
5. I have so many scratches on my hands from George, but I still love him.
6. I'm hungry. You should NOT be allowed to be hungry on your birthday dang it!
7. You should actually probably not have to work or do anything on your birthday at all.
8. I find it crazy that I've been living in Calgary for 2 years now. It seems like it's been much longer.
9. I also find it crazy how much my life has changed in the past 2 years! Especially the last year.
10. I miss the 2 sisters that used to live in Calgary... that was always fun.
11. I still get up early to work out even though I don't have to...I just prefer to get it done.
12. Yes I even worked out today.
13. Lambie asked me if I've seen results. Answer: No, because I still eat what I want most of the time.
14. I still don't know what to do with my life :<
15. I no longer have any living grandparents.
16. I still love spending time with family and friends.
17. I bet no one's still reading this list ;)
18. I really love Turtle Pecan Cluster blizzards. I bring this up not because I think about ice cream all the time (I do), but because I just got an email for buy one get one free blizzards from DQ :D
19. The last clothing related purchase I made was a Tower of Terror t-shirt from Disneyland and I haven't even worn it...
20. Other than that, I don't remember the last time I bought clothes. It's likely time to change that.
21. At least I can still fit into all the same clothes I guess? Or is that a bad thing?
22. I'm getting old. You can see when I smile how wrinkly I'm going to be (around my eyelets)! You chose this Scott!


So celebrate for me, and for goodness sakes...have some dang ice cream.

Toodles for meow :)!

Here we go again...

Well... I suppose as it has been an utterly long time since my last post that I should just get one up. What has happened in my life....

OH well firstly it got deliciously warm outside! And I was even able to soak in a few rays (of UV radiation...which really probably isn't that good but oh well). There's something about the sun and warmth that just makes me feel happy inside :) I love to be outside and just drink in the warmth...because before I know it...it'll be gone again D:! I even mowed! Yes MOWED! (not a lot, but still mowed nonetheless)... And there was an OBSCENELY LARGE amount of Ladybugs in my backyard. Quite literally HERDS of them... and when I mowed they would fly up and ATTACK MY FACE! I KID YOU NOT! As you may or may not have noticed... I hate bugs... all of them. To me they are seriously awful and I feel as though I need someone to be defending me from them at all times. I would rather... fight someone than face a bug (pathetic? I know -.-).

I have been doing a power yoga videoish type thing the past few days and although I'm utterly relaxed by the end... It's pretty intense! And I'm sore the next day.... but I guess that's kind of good.

ANOTHER THING! I have no idea why or how... but I've randomly gotten a slight cold for the past few days! It's disgusting!It started out with just a runny nose... then I couldn't even breathe through my nose.... THEN APPARENTLY I started snoring at night because of the loss of useage of my nose. And then I wake up with a terribly sore throat and then today I was croaking away D: And it's just not too pleasant really.

Today we did spring cleaning of the house... Which took a really long time actually... But I'm just glad it's done and everything is clean and nice and yes :) Well... except for my room... but I'm not going to worry about that because well it's summer vacation now. OH! I haven't mentioned that yet! School is now done for me!(for the semester). Communications there was no final but I ended up with 98% in the class... I think that's pretty awesome haha. Kickboxing... I'm not sure what my final mark is. But we did the final written exam and skills testing on monday and I think it went pretty good. ALSO! We did our fitness testing to see how we had improved since the start of the semester (we did this with pushups)... at the beginning I did 14... the end I did 32. And well I know it doesn't sound THAT fantasticredible... but well... I'm proud of myself :) So there :P Computers, we didn't have a final and I don't have my final grade in that quite yet. Last, but not least, Anatomy... I had my final for that on Wednesday and the grade is not up yet... I think I did decently well BUT I suppose I shall have to wait and see.
Also this weekend I went on a trip to Waterton with W and Mr. H which was actually really fun! It was pretty nice up there :) Although it took Mr. H seemingly FOREVER to start the fire (but you can't blame him... he's kind of a city boy) and I was STARVED D: (along with W) it was all in all quite a fun trip! Friday/Saturday night even went to a couple of Mormon house dance party type things which were surprisingly not too bad... Generally I'm quite anti social seeming and yeh, I just don't go to those (haha). But they were alright.

Well I think... that is... it... OH! I saw Avatar in 3D on... Wednesday night? Yea I think so... ANYWHO... I think it was really good! I was kind of iffy about it at first. But I would definitely see it again! So if you're willing to take a risk... SEE IT! but watch the trailer first just to get a rundown. :)

Anyways... this is the end now haha

Bonne nuit for meow :)!

RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME -- Well... the past week (Monday- Saturday) there has been a deal at dairy queen for buy one get one for 25 cents :o So I've gone... everyday except one. I like ice cream an exceedingly large amount hehe
