Yee-haw

Alrighty, so this past week has been Whoop Up Days...when we get our local fair. And if you're going just for fun (and food) and aren't TOO terribly serious about the rides...then hey, it's a good time :) I went with some of the fam fam on Friday for about 6 hours...it was fun and I'm definitely a fan of the Ring of Fire and the Zipper. I ate some terribly overpriced food which is probably equally terrible for me (ice cream, elephant ears, slushies, so on... AND came home with some scrump-diddly-upmtious fudge). Mmmm Fudge *.* Anyways, I managed to satisfy everyone's "sit by me" and "one more time" requests, so overall it was a fantastic day :)

Which was then ended by going to a dance with W... I hadn't been in FOREVER because I work weekends. We had fun, I remembered how lame they were... but it's ok because we can have a good time regardless! :)

Anyways... I'm not going back to school this semester, And I'm still looking for a second job for the semester (HELP ME PLEASE!). Well I'm not going back because...
1. I still don't know what to do
2. I really couldn't afford it (unless I got a student loan) And I really didn't want to get a student loan when I was still so unsure of what to do.
There's options flying around such as... a degree in Psychology, or Finance, Accounting, or even Physiotherapist. And for all you readers out there... I'm looking for YOUR opinion! I'll take as much help as I can get! Because it's my hope to get back into school for the Winter '11 semester.
As everyone's getting ready and actually GOING back to school now/soon... I'm finding myself jealous and WISHING I were too. *sigh* I'm embarassed, but I crave more learnings!

OH! I've been thinking about starting a Health/Beauty bloggety blog... And I'm curious if any of you would be interested? And do you think I should have a second blog? Or just continue with this one? Input pleeaaassse? :D

Anyways, thanks for reading!

Ta ta for meow :)!

RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME -- I still have my favorite stuffed dog from when I was a wee lass... His name is Rolly and I don't sleep with him but he'll be around for awhile (if not forever). And actually I have a small collection of stuffed dogs so... yep :)

QUESTION NUMERO ONE

Ok, I am most splendidly excited for my first question :) *which was from Leinani...(ps thanks for asking one haha)

Leinani said... Alright missy-face, I've got a question for ya.

Toothpaste: What kind do you use? Do you squeeze from the end or the middle? Do you leave the cap on or off?

Alright, so here goes...
As most of you know (who have been reading my blog) I use a different toothpaste in the morning and at night. At night I use Crest Pro Health and in the morning I use Colgate Visible White (which I'm not sure if my teeth ARE actually more visibly white...but I haven't noticed haha). I only squeeze from the bottom if it's almost out and that's the way it must be done, otherwise I just squeeze from somewhere in the middle. And lastly, I've always been a cap on person. It kind of bugs me when people leave it off... haha.

And for anyone who wants to answer these questions as well... just leave a comment :)

I'm still looking for more questions people, questions about anything :D Pleeeaaassssee? :3

Anywho, bye for meow :)!

RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME -- I love being in bare feet, I would go around without shoes all the time if it were possible :D

OK OK

Alright, well as you may or may not have noticed I did not finish my California stories. And well I've been meaning to get a blog up and I've definitely had times where I COULD do it... but I really haven't felt like doing a big long California trip one again. Soooo... for now I'll skip it. maybe I'll feel like posting it in the future but as for now...no thanks. If anyone has any questions about the trip...ask, and I'll let you know :) I'll just say it was fun, warm and I miss it.

OK, so you're probably thinking I have some awesome topic or something exciting to share... well you're definitely mistaken :D I just felt like posting one. I don't really have anything to say.
Update on my life...I still work 5 nights a week and I'm wanting a full time job on top of that. I've decided I won't be going to school this fall, I may go back in January...but well, I'll have to see. I still need to decide what to do with my life...so difficult. BUT YES, I'm looking for a full time job...any ideas folkies? When I'm not working...I'm exercising or visiting family or hanging out with friends. But, for the most part, life is pretty good right now :)

I've been trying to think of new ideas for blogs...if there's something fast and easy I could do. And well I'm still thinking about it. And I'll continue to think about it and let you know.

Does anybody out there in the blogging world have any questions for me? Seriously... any questions? About anything? Not just about me. COME ON... Ask me a question. Do it.

But yes, it's good to finally get something up.

Ciao for meow (:!

RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME -- If I could eat one last thing before I died... it would be ice cream. Om nom nom.

Oh, Canada

Well, here I am...back in the rain and wind. My being aches to be back in California again though. *sigh* Oh well. Canada is a good place where we only have to worry about 2 colors (red and white). SOOOO I'm not sure if I'll give you a rundown of the whole trip or just a nice tidbit. But I will start by saying it overall was a great trip full of lots of fun times, foolish moments, and of course awesome memories.

We(we being W, her sister(L), her sister's hubby(T), and myself left on Friday June 25th, all not entirely prepared for the 18+ hour venture to Las Vegas. T, being the man he is, seemed to feel like he had to drive the majority of the time...and he did, so good on him I suppose. But at about 2 in the morning when everyone was sleeping, he started to get drowsy and pull off from time to time. At this point I probably had gotten about half hour of sleep and I woke up because it was just much too cramped and hot in the vehicle :l So at about 3 I volunteered my services and I got to drive for a few hours while everyone slept :) YAY! (ps...wasn't tired at all oddly enough). OH! Another thing I could mention is the "mile" guessing game we played. We would look at the green signs that say how many (kilometers here) miles there was to the next place and we would guess what the next number would be and whoever got it...got a point. Sounds slightly sad doesn't it? But hey it made a few hours go by faster :P

Saturday June 26th

At about 8 o'clock we found ourselves mosying into Vegas (finally!) and we decided we should get some breakfast. (At this point we were all quite hungry and slightly cranky from lack of sleep). Soooo, we looked up an IHOP (heck yes it's awesome :D) on the GPS (we called her Grizzly) and set off in search. WELLL apparently Grizzly is stupid and likes to tell us there's IHOP's where there clearly isn't...so, disappointed and growing ever more hungry, we ventured to find our hotel and see when we could check in. At least we found it reasonably easy... it being Fitzgerald's Hotel and Casino. And after a bit more struggles (because we had to call and change the name we had the reservation under -- ridiculous? I know :l) we found out we could check in, in a few hours. So we asked the people there if they knew where the nearest IHOP (we were very set on IHOP at this point if you didn't notice :P) was and we set off...yet again. After about another 45 minutes, we FINALLY found the IHOP and stuffed ourselves good :) ( I had french toast cause it's awesome duh) Then we actually went to 2 Wal Mart's (I don't recall why... ) to pass the time. Then we headed back and finally checked in. OH and may I mention, BOILING slash DEATHLY hot here... aka 40+ degrees C. SO first thing on our list was to hit the pool :D Which was fairly decent :) (aside from the creepy man on the side of the pool who kept staring...) and this is where W first slightly got burnt. And then it was back to the hotel room to get purdied up and explore the strip.

I'll say now we weren't sure where "The Strip" was but neither did anyone we asked.... which seems retarded as they live there -.- jeesh. So we started out by walking. Which we only lasted about 7 blocks (which are much bigger down there by the way) -- before we were all about ready to die. SO we decided to get a slurpee... at which point we also decided that we were not going any further without a vehicle.

SIDE NOTE -- You know the newspaper dispensers we have on some sidewalks? Wellll in Vegas they have about 5 of them every block. BUT instead of newspapers... it's personal ads ._. awful

So we walked back to the hotel, tried to make ourselves look decently NOT disgusting and got the car and drove off in search. We eventually found it many blocks down (aka...would've died if we walked). It was fun to see and definitely had some glitz to it.... but not gonna lie, I was slightly let down. Instead of being about leaving everyone impressed and shows and whatnot... it was mainly about casino's, drinking, and the personal ad's being handed out. But oh well, still glad I got to see it :) There was a huge mall (very spread out...and a lot of it outdoors) called the Miracle Mile (I believe?) which was fairly awesome :o So after a couple of hours of that (and still boiling by the way) we headed back to the hotel and swam again for a bit. Then got ready for bed and watched the good ole telly for a bit and ended up all going to bed around 9. And then (at least W and I) slept straight til 7:30. And neither of us moved the whole night either. So we were very stiff and sore in the morning. But t'was a good sleep.

ANNNNNDDDD this is where I end for now... because apparently I like giving lots of details and have difficulty shutting up. So I shall continue within the next couple of days :)

PS. The blogging world has kind of...died while I was away. Still out there?

Ciao for meow :)!

RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME -- I love beaches and could probably lay in the sand and sun alllll daaaayyyy long :3

Hidy Ho

Wellll it's a been awhile.... quite a long while actually. But meh, MY TRIP IS ALMOST HERE :D We leave tomorrow and I'm ridiculously excited. You may be thinking ah... you've been busy getting ready. Nope. Nope I haven't x) I can actually get ready for a trip quite quickly. I find plenty of other things too. I should be a professional time waster because, honestly, I'm really good. You'd think I'd find more time to write these bloggedy blogs...and well technically I do have time but... uh, well I dunno what to write about. My life is so boring D: If you give me something to rant about I probably could. And I doubt you want to hear about adventures I have with wasps in my room, or ginormous spiders in my bathroom, or my splashing candle wax all over. That brings back memories for me though :l

ANYYYWWAAYYSS. Back to the trip... so I leave tomorrow :D And I'll give you a little run down on the schedule. Driving through the night, spending a day in Vegas, driving to Anaheim (Cali) and then we'll get to spend a few days at DISNEYLAND :D :D :D, and a day at the beach... then we're taking off to the Land of Mormons...yes Utah. For a temple day, shopping, and hopefully some awesome fireworks. Yes, this is the basic rundown. But yeh...I'm excited ^^

And...that's the end. I really have nothing else to talk about. Sad I'm aware. *shrugs* Oh well.

Ciao for meow :)!

RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME -- I hate bugs... they seriously creep me out, a lot :l I know I'm bigger, but they're creepier and just D:

P.S. Everyone is getting married...apparently I fail as a Mormon? x)

Don't Leave People Guessing

Well, this all started when I tried to go to bed earlier last night (12:30ish to be more exact) and well to prove the unsuccessfulness of my attempt I recall looking at the clock at 2:30 -.- Oh well, I'm hoping it comes soon. Anyways, I just COULD NOT shut my brain off. You know what I mean? When you try to stop thinking but your brain just keeps a-going. Well I won't share everything that I was thinking about (mainly because that would be a hideously long list) but one of the things that...stood out(?) I suppose, was letting people know how you feel or just expressing appreciation or even just let know people know when you've thought about them. Not only is this good in the case of "you never know which moment will be you last" BUT people like to know they're being thought of... they like to feel appreciated and special. So, I'm going to be trying to do this more myself as well. And I challenge you out there to do the same. :D

AND I shall include a shoutout to all those who I know read or who are subscribed anyways. Denise you are a very bubbly person who can tell awesome stories, Leinani...you're very kind and fun to hang out with, Jesse...you're crazy and like to have a good time, Star...you're very loving and easy-going, Cora... you're outgoing and cheerful, W... you're caring and a great friend :)

RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME -- WELLL now that I've got that out of the way. I watched the season finale of Glee last night ( I know... total nerd but oh well) and it was really good :D And don't hate on Glee...if you don't like it, so be it. But I like it because it has lots of singing and dancing and it's pretty random and lame haha. But for the main group's music they did a Journey Medley and it was good. I tried to find a link but alas, I was pretty unsuccessful...so just watch it if you can :D If not, just listen to the original songs by Journey of Faithfully, Don't Stop Believing, Any Way You Want It, and so on.

Anyways...toodles for meow :)!

The bottom of the tube of toothpaste

Well I don't know about all of you out there...but I've realized something about myself. I figured it out when I finished off a tube of toothpaste this morning and I felt a little proud of myself...I find a small sense of accomplishment in little things such as this. Finishing a bottle of vitamins, finishing a bottle of water, mowing the lawn, exercising every day, finishing a book and so on. So... my question is, is it normal to feel this way? Or is this completely odd and should I pay less attention to these little things?

If you have this same feeling from time to time... what are the things that you pride in doing or accomplishing?

That's it for meow :)!

RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME -- I use a different toothpaste at night and in the morning, and no they aren't special for night or day or anything like that. I just like having a different one for them? The end.
