I Surprised Myself!!!

I have a job! That's right, me-a job!

I'm now a waitress at Rawlins newest restaurant Hoot & Howl. Well it's not opening until the 13th, so it's still Fat Boys. I'm just calling it Hoot & Howl.

There are a lot of amazing things that will happen, but I will blog about those as they happen. I started training Wednesday, we have our pre-opening run through thing this Wednesday so I have to be ready to do everything then.

I'm very nervous because I have to memorize a million and twelve things in about 5 nights. You can ask my mom, it's literally 41 pages plus a whole menu.

Oh geez.

But I do enjoy my work atmosphere though. The people who work there are a ton of fun. There is Andrew, the manager/my boss, he is very fun, I'd say we're friends. I'll say more about him in the future. The other cool guy there is Sam. He is a cook and a butcher there. He has a HUGE mustache. It's sorta like Mario's. The video game Mario, with the mustache. I think you know him.

His mustache is the butt of many jokes at work.

That's all I'll say for tonight. I have to copy the menu tonight. And everyone has to train with the big boss tomorrow. The employees are scared of him so I'm worried just like the rest of them, including Andrew and Sam.

Have a fantastic night!!!

Poem For Brittany

Radiant

Listen! Can you hear it?
The phone's ringing!
Could it be Britt?
I spring from my chair,
High in the air,
And land on my feet!
Isn't that neat?
Turns out I was wrong,
It was not the phone's song.
Maybe she'll call next week :(

7 Months Til Christmas!!!!

Today I beat the pokemon game I've been playing. It actually wasn't that hard, I only used one pokemon the whole time so he was like 40 levels above everyone else. It was a good way to spend my time though.
My mom made some delicious cookies yesterday. They are very yummy for you. Kim made me a co author for her blog. That excites me. I broiled some steak again today. One of the movies we watched last night was the worst movie ever. It had horrible actors, crappy camera men and probably a $6 budget. I loved it lol.
Well happy 7 months til Christmas!!! Have a christmas-y night!

Parenthesis Are Like Hugs For Your Words!

Today's post's name is dedicated to my sister Brittany. That is some of her wisdom that she shared with me today.




LaNae and Thomas arrived at my house last night. We went shooting today. Not a very flattering picture of me, but I didn't realize there was a camera nearby. So not my problem.



We then went to dinner at Fat Boys (which I applied to today) and went shopping. Then we came home and made cards. I made two very cute ones. One for each of my two sisters who don't live with me. They are very cute. I will have to put pictures of them on later. After they get them in the mail.
That is all for tonight, I am going to go watch a movie and hopefully play a game with my family. Have a fun night!

Bipolar Weather

This morning I woke up to a very cold Rawlins. During choir it was hailing very loudly. It rained on and off all during school.

Then after school, it was sunny, and hot.

Then all of a sudden I heard the scariest noise outside, I looked out there and it is a monster rain storm. It's very windy and loud.

I think I am done with this Wyoming weather. It is too inconsistent.

Rain

It rained a lot today. This is what my dad found outside.

While fishing.

The cleanup yesterday was very fun. I found a baseball (whom I named Soda), a little toy jeep, and a plastic coin. I loved the hamburgers.

Cheer practice was canceled today because of the tornadoes going on. So when my dad came home with fish to eat, I decided to broil myself a steak. No Britt, not boil. That was delicious. Then, while watching Last Comic Standing, we saw a commercial for Wendy's bashing McDonalds. That's when my mom decided she really wanted to McDonalds, I just ate my second dinner for the night. :D

Idk what else to say. So have a great evening!

My Face Almost Broke Today

We stunted again today.

I had to put up an extension. And pop off. From the extension. For the first time.

I caught Caitlin's butt on my face.

That does not feel good I tell you. Having a 100.2 pound girl land on your face butt-first.

Other than that, stunting was very fun today. It's hard work though. Today was one of those I-want-to-quit days. But that's what makes it worth it. All the sweat and bruises. Another hard work day in the wonderful world of cheerleading.

Also, seminary graduation was tonight. That was fun. My mom played the piano with Kelsey on violin and Chris on viola. They did very good. My mom and I now know that a viola is a bigger violin, we thought it was like a cello.

I ate chicken that touched mushrooms. And broke a plastic fork on a baked potato, I replaced it with a metal one. So no more seminary til August. That means I get to sleep in tomorrow. Yay!

My grandparents are at my house today. The Ward ones, they make me very happy when they visit me. My grandpa always has funny stories to tell me. LaNae and Thomas are coming to visit me Friday night, I'm excited for them too. They've never been here. I love it when people come to visit.

Oh! I almost forgot! Tomorrow is our annual town clean-up day. So we won't go to any of our classes because the school will be cleaning, then we have a barbeque. Then at 5:00 our ward is cleaning part of the town I guess, then we will have a barbeque for dinner. So tomorrow I will get my fair share of cleaning and hamburgers. I'm excited.

Have a great night!

I Do Not Want A Sunburned Ear

That's right, I'm sitting on my couch, and our front door is open, so the sun is shining right on my ear. It does not feel good. I have a feeling it will be sunburned soon. Not looking forward to that.

But I will tell you what sun I am looking forward to. Mexico/California Sun. That is where our summer vacation will be this year. I'm very excited. I plan to get very tan and eat lots of pizza. That's right 24-hour pizza will be available to me. If I want pizza at two in the morning, I can have it. That part I am looking forward to.

Thursday the 8th grade cheerleaders had a dance, so the older girls to stunt. I'm very happy about this because my best friend and I are exactly the same size. This means we get to base together and hopefully Caitlin will be our flyer. She's our other best friend. She's our size too. We love stunting.

I found a new hero at my gas station, he is one of those window picture guys. He is blue, and he has a mohawk and wears a ripped t-shirt with a "T" on it. I named him Toleto. He is very awesome.

Ooooh! I almost forgot! I got to do one of the most relaxing things in the world today, organize our food. I know, it doesn't sound like much fun, but it's one of my favorite things in the world to do. The Schwann's Man came today, and I thought "we don't have enough room in our freezer for that ice cream" so I rearranged everything and made it all pretty and organized. It relaxed me so much that I did the pantry too. It was very relaxing.

Well, I'm going to finish watching iCarly now. Have a wonderful evening! :D

Very Boring

My mom is gone :(



The house is very boring without her. Sunday I was bored all night, I think yesterday I watched TV and took a nap. We had to run the mile at school. That sucked. Dinner was roast on Sunday and last night French Dip.



Today I had a cheer meeting and now I'm at the library. I got my favorite Veggietales movie (Josh and the Big Wall), and two books. They are called "What Will Fat Cat Sit On?" and an Enchanted (my favorite movie) look and find. I'm very excited about all three. Tonight we are having french toast.



Tomorrow school gets out early so I'll be extra bored, but that night I have a choir party. Free pizza. That's my kind of party. Kim and Doug will be having soup.



Thursday cheer practice starts, we'll have it on Tuesdays and Thursdays for the rest of the year. I'm telling my body to prepare for major soreness. :( Oh I will also be watching a lot of TV that night. Pizza for dinner again.



Friday, I don't think anything is happening. But spaghetti for dinner.

Saturday my mommy's coming home! :D

The Past Few Days

Kim is better at mentioning things that happen in my life than I am. I only mention one thing every once in awhile and just ramble about that (yes, I'm my mother's daughter). So I will try to mention more things.

I just hurt myself. I like to snap and point at things (in one motion) so I just did that by my neck so my pointer finger was on my chin and then I accidentally flicked my neck very hard with my middle finger. It did not feel very good.

I saw Iron Man last night. I had to clean my room first, that part sucked. I did not know as much as I thought I did. I guess all I really knew was that he was a superhero. I went with my friend Brittany, and we love the front row. A boy TJ from my ward was up there (along with Kim's seminary teacher on the other side of us) and he did not appreciate me. He said to Brittany "Why did you bring her? She talks too much" it was ok though, he said he liked answering my questions. Which was good because I had a lot of them. I mean that was a confusing/good movie.

The other day my teacher told me that a place I went is not real. She said there were only two cities in Alaska and she said they were Anchorage and I don't remember the other one. I told her I've been to Ketchikan. She said "that's not a city" in a very mean voice. That made me very sad.

I went jogging this morning while Kim rode her bike along side me. It was very fun. We went down to the grocery store, bought a drink, then came back. My dad put up a mirror in our room when we got back home. It's beautiful, it's squiggly and reflective. I like to look at myself in it.

My mom is leaving me tomorrow. I'm very depressed about it. She will be gone for a whole week :( I'm in charge of cooking while she's gone. I'm a little nervous about that. But excited.

I can't think of anything else that has happened, maybe Kim will know.....

And The Secret Is Revealed....

I just realized I never said anything more about the secret I was doing. I could've written about it on Monday, but I forgot. The reason I couldn't say anything about it was because I didn't want Brittany to know about it before it got to her.

I spent hours making a slideshow for my sisters (see above). I did it all by myself. I had a lot of fun finding pictures, quotes and songs. I hope you all enjoy it too.

Along with the slideshow, I sent Ally and Britt some of their favorite snacks. And a Dora sticker. I used that money I found that was for my iPod, and I felt good. I even paid for the delivery. :D

I think this is the first time I've ever done something for not myself. And don't worry, Kim wasn't left out. She got to have Hershey's and Martinelli's to eat/drink while I finally showed my family the project. She got a sticker too.

And, when I went to put the rest of my money in my secret money box, I found $20! I said "mom! this is what happens when you do things for other people!"

So I hope you enjoy the slideshow. I spent a lot of time on it. Have a wonderful day!

Varsity Baby!

Cheerleading tryouts went pretty well. I'm the only one who can't do a cartwheel, but I was the best at the splits in my group.

Despite the horrible "cartwheel" that I did, I made Varsity! Woo hoo! I don't have to wear the ugly JV uniforms anymore! :D

My Three Life Goals

#1: Marry a rich man.

I will love this rich man, do not think I am marrying him just for his money, that is wrong. When I have the choice between marrying a cute poor man and a cute rich man, (I will love both of them) I will have to choose the rich one, life will simply be easier this way.

#2: Be the cutest pregnant lady ever.

I will be married while I am pregnant, do not worry. To be the cutest pregnant lady ever, I will exercise to stay all skinny and eat a ton so I will have a huge belly. I will dance with this pregnant belly.

#3: Be the cutest old lady ever.

I just love old people, they tell the best stories and have a certain spunk that we just don't see anymore. Old people are my favorite so I hope to do them justice by being the cutest old lady ever.
