Updates...

I realized I haven't posted in a couple of months so I updated with 4 new posts. Just a couple things that's been going on here in Rexburg. One last thing that I want to rant about for a minute. So as you all know I've been looking for a job for a Very long time. A couple weeks ago I finally got a job at The Medicine Shoppe and I was so excited and thankful. He told me I couldn't start until I got a background check done, because working at a pharmacy they have to make sure I'm not going to take advantage of it. He gave me the pack of papers I had to fill out and the card to take to the police station to get my fingerprints done. I got this at 2:30pm on Tuesday. He said he would like me to get it back to him before 5 so he could send it that day because it will take 2-3 weeks to get done. So I first went to the police station to get the fingerprints done. They were releasing someone that day so everyone was busy and I had to wait. Finally at 3:45 I was done with that. Then I filled out the paperwork and it said I needed to signatures from reputable business people and a copy of my diploma. This was a problem!! I called my mom and we figured out to have her fax a copy of my diploma to my uncle at work, then he signed one spot for the business people and he got his boss to sign the other one. I was so relieved, I rushed back to The Medicine Shoppe and got it back to him by 4:30. He then said he would get it mailed first thing tomorrow..........WHAT??!! I just rushed all around town to get this done before 5 and you're not mailing it today!! Grrr whatever as long as it's done that's fine!! So here I was thinking all was good and that I would be starting soon......Oh I was wrong!! Friday morning I get a call from my boss-to-be and he said "you brought in your paperwork on tues. right? Well I lost them." WHAT??!! You gotta be kidding me, they haven't been sent yet and you lost them!!! He called me later and said he found them and he mailed them. Well that's just great but now I have to wait even longer before I can start. Don't get me wrong I'm So, So, So grateful to get this job but it's so frustrating that I'm running out of money and me starting keeps getting delayed!! Grrrrrrr.........ok just wanted to get that out and it feels good. Thanks for listening sorry if it was boring and whiny. Enjoy the rest of my posts :)

Typical Sunday in Rexburg....

So we have 4 guys who are our neighbors and sometimes we will go over and hang out with them because they have the big house and me and Lindsey just have the small one. Well on sunday some of them decided to pay us a visit. They came over with rootbeer bottles that looked like beer bottles just to freak us out, then they decided to show us just how strong they were by tearing our phone books in half. That was fine until they decided to start throwing it all over the place. It continued to get smaller and more of a mess.

Devin with his rootbeer chillin in the mess!!

It took about 8 try's to finally get a good picture of us throwing it all in the air lol

The guys said they would clean it up......

Devin was just like a kid in a big pile of leaves...

They cleaned by putting it in..........

Our fridge...

Our cupboards...

Our stove (kinda a fire hazard)...

And our bedrooms!!

After we kicked the guys out we cleaned it ourselves......

Then we just had to play in it :)

We decided to get back at the guys by giving it all back to them. We put tinfoil in front of there laundryroom door and filled it with the paper so when they opened the door it would spill into there house. It was easy to do because our houses are connected through the laundry room so we didn't have to stand outside and risk them catching us.

We are very sneaky!! :)

It was Very Loud and we were afraid they would hear it and come see what was going on so we turned on the dryer, which is pretty much the loudest monster ever, and nobody wants to be in there while it's on.

Lindsey filling the tinfoil!!

Our finished product, now all we have to do is wait for them to open the door.

Later, after they opened the door, they tried to get into our house and get back but we locked our doors :) so they just left all if the paper in the laundry room. Later that night they were all gone so we broke into there house and put the paper in there beds. We forgot to lock our front door and when they got home they came running in, screaming, with arm fulls of paper and they threw it in our rooms again. We finally just threw it all away but it was such a fun day!! :)

Random Girls Night......

One night at about 8:30pm my friends Amy and Melissa called and told me to hurry and get to there apt. because we were having a girls night. I was already to settle down for the night in my sweats and I was sitting down to watch a movie. But I changed back into clothes and went. I'm so glad I did because it was such a fun night!!

We saw Tangled in 3-D. Such a cute movie.

Before the movie we went to domino's to get a pizza and we may have flirted a little with the guy behind the counter. lol There was no one else there and we were having fun. He was wearing a chicken hat and I commented on it and we went from there lol The best thing was that I asked him to do a chicken dance for us and he DID!!! It was so much fun and of course I had to record it.

He said he wanted a copy of it so he wrote his name, and major lol because apparently that's also relevant, on the pizza box so I could friend him on facebook. I did later that night and found that Mikayla knows him, wow small world :) Enjoy the video, I do!!

The Neighbors Concert!!

My friend Cori came to Rexburg one weekend and we went to a concert at Sammy's. Sammy's is a burger and ice-cream joint here where they hold free concerts from unknown bands. The band playing was The Neighbors, we've been to there concert before and they are pretty good. They are a brother and sister duo who write and sing there own songs. There trademark is to wear these big glasses so we went to the dollar store and bought black glasses and took out the middle to make our own glasses and wore them to the concert. Afterwards they told us how much they loved looking up and seeing all of us in the glasses. It was so much fun.

I know it looks like I'm praying, and it is Rexburg so it's possible that I am, lol but I'm not. Cori took this pic. and sent it to me.

Carly, Cori, and me rocking our Awsome glasses!!

K.C. decided he wanted to be a model and used us as the couch :)

All of us with The Neighbors!!

Me ans Adam Keiser from The Neighbors. Also he was voted Utah's Sexiest Bachelor of the Year. So yeah,......everyone can be jealous lol He was a little sweaty from his concert though, gross!! :)

Something Fishy.....

So I decided to get a fish for my apartment. Don't ask me why I just felt like getting a fish. I ended up getting two little goldfish that were only .28 I figured best to go with the cheapest since they would most likely die. My friend Melissa was with me and wanted to get one too, to keep with mine.

Me and my fishy's!!

Melissa with her fish George.

I never got around to actually naming my fish.
It's a good thing I didn't name them and get to attached because one of them died the nest day and then two days after that the other one died. A week later George died and I had to tell Melissa. I thought she was going to cry. But that was my adventure with fish I will probably wait a while before I ever get fish again. lol

Oh Boy I'm 22...........

Well it happened, no matter how much I tried to deny it and everything I did to try and stop it from happening, it happened..............I Turned 22!! :( I do not like this whole aging thing at all but despite that I had a pretty Amazing day thanks to my Awsome friends. First my roommate, Kaila, bought me a cinnamon roll for breakfast and I got a card in the mail from my mom :) Then I got all dolled up and went to my friends apartment. Cori, my friend, bought me terriyaki chicken for lunch then a bunch of us went to Applebee's for dinner. It happened to also be another friends, Levi, birthday so we combined our party since we had the same friends!!

The Birthday Girl!! After much denial I was determined to have a fun time.

My friends made me a giant birthday card, it was so awsome they are the absolute best!!

This is the inside of the card, the duct tape in the corner is because in Idaho we use duct tape for everything. The pop-out in the middle is a purple, orange spotted, cow getting hit by a tractor because I grew up on a dairy lol Then each of the people are are each one of my friends who made the card and they each wrote me something. I love this card, it made my day. :)

Me and Levi are Birthday Buddies!! We're pretty much best friends now because of our birthday bond lol I'm glad I wasn't turning 26 like he was though :)

Levi's Birthday Sundae!!

My Birthday Sunday!!

My friends Cori, Adam, Amy, Diana, and the weird kid who looks like he's picking his nose is Diana's boyfriend Nick but we call him The Florist because he wants to be a florist. This was the first time meeting him and he's kinda a weirdo lol

Melissa and Mattie!!

Santa Clause was there and he threw a ton of mints at us. He was trying to see how many he could get in our drinks. He was a fun Santa but I think he should've been getting ready for Christmas instead of making apperances at Applebee's :)

It turned out to be a very good birthday but I'm hoping the next one won't come around so fast.

It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas...

The Christmas Season is once again upon us which means three things, lots of annoying snow, I turn another year older, and we get to Celebrate our Saviors Birth. One of my favorite things is Decorating!! After Thanksgiving I brought up all my Christmas decorations but then realized my apartment is so small that I couldn't put up many things.

I bought a small Christmas Tree which fits perfectly on the side table.

We set up as many boxes as we could to create more tables to put decorations on. I went to the dollar store and bought Christmas table clothes to cover them so it's more festive. It worked out pretty well.

Everyone needs a Nativity Set for Christmas!!

This little village is no where near as good as my mom's but I thought it worked for now until I can start collecting my real Christmas Village!!

This is my little apartment. As you can see it's snowing to add to all the other annoying snow already on the ground :/

My poor little car covered with snow, that's sure ganna be fun to drive in!!

I'm excited to go home and be with my family for awhile and start a new year. A lot has been going on lately, things that I thought I had figured out haven't been working out like I planned. But all I can do is look ahead and start the new year with a fresh attitude about Everything, and Hopefully things will turn out how they're suppose to.
