laree. i worry about her...


so most of you have probably heard of facebook. so they have this new application thingy where you can send bumper stickers to your friends. the above picture is one that betsy sent me. and also one that you all should recognize from growing up in the lapierre household. duh, it's harry from harry and the hendersons!!!
but anyways, the other night i had my facebook page up on my laptop in the kitchen. laree was nearby so i told her to look. she was looking at it and after a minute or two i asked her "do you know who that is?!" and laree, bless her heart, said "whoopi goldberg?"
i think i started crying i was laughing so hard. and in her defense she tried to claim that she was 'too young to remember'. pshh, like that has ever been an excuse. she also claimed that her second guess was going to be oprah winfrey...

patriot's day

so the one thing i absolutely truly miss the most about boston is patriot's day. it's my FAVORITE holiday, probably because it's only celebrated in massachusetts. the worst part about being in school, however, is that i usually miss the patriot's day celebration by only a couple of days. tomorrow is the day, and i am still in utah. i miss the reenactments, the boston marathon at the 19 mile mark, the parades and the grand opening of kimball's.
WOE IS ME.
and it is so not cool....

git 'r done son!!!


so this past week has been my week of getting things done. i have housing for next year. stadium terrace, as seen in the picture. it's literally the backyard of the football stadium.
i also have gotten my fafsa taken care of for next year.
and as you all have seen i have a job down in virginia but it doesn't start until june, and i get home end of april. so i had all of may. thankfully my manager at sports authority in woburn is letting me transfer back just for the month. and i can start almost as soon as i get home. and he already knows the days that i need off.
now all i need to do is get through finals and we're good!!!

hmm...tastes like blood...
















so i'm not sure how many of you are aware of the books called the Twilight Series by Stephenie Meyer...however i am practically in love with them. (if you're curious here's the website stepheniemeyer.com)
it's about a girl that falls in love with a vampire and how it changes her life around, etc. etc. (my sister in law lisa michelle wrote about this on her family blog, just so you know i'm not the only one that got addicted. you can check her little blurb about it here) so a couple months ago it was posted on the website that summit entertainment have bought the rights to turn these books into movies, heaven bless them. i don't think this could get any better for me. filming started this month but the only cast they had were the 2 main characters. UNTIL this past weekend, when they FINALLY posted pictures of the rest of the vampire family. it's hard to read a book and form pictures of the characters in your mind, so at first i was a little heartbroken and didn't agree with the actors they chose. however, they are slowly starting to grow on me... the guy in front may look a little familiar to you harry potter fans, as he is the one that plays cedric diggory in the fourth movie.
so now, the countdown begins. the movie comes out in december and the fourth book comes out in august. this is probably going to be the sweetest year ever!!!

and remember: the world is a VAMPIRE!!
later dudes

let's hope


so this is a picture from the glorious day of finding out katy and micah were engaged. this is only minutes before i figured it out...racing the sophinator at chuck e. cheese's!! she totally kicked my trash...
but on another note: so i got a call this morning at about 9 o'clock. this woman on the end was telling me she was from gold's gym or some place like unto it (and right there i was like heck no, don't want it!) however she continued to explain that i had won something, having entered my name in some forgotten contest. so i was like okay...? i proceeded to listen as she proceeded to talk. i could pick between a trip for two, all expenses paid to anaheim or las vegas OR a forty dollar gift card to home depot, best buy, dillard's, kohl's or some other places that i forgot. so clearly i picked the trip. betsy is currently accepting it for me (the place is up in south jordan, how convenient is that?!?!?) so i'll know all the details by later tonight and hopefully it's not a big hoax (the lady said no strings attached...) keep your fingers crossed for me!!!
