Lake Powell

Well I went to lake powel for the first time this last week. I got a ticket on the way there for turning left illegally...... but other than that it was an awesome adventure!! I wasn't able to take my camera sadly enough so sorry about no pictures. I need to get some pictures on here soon!! We're going swimming tomorrow so i'll be sure to get my camera and take it with us. Things are getting changed around a little bit. My roommate debi is moving out so i'm moving in with tami and two other girls are taking my old room. It's going to be awesome!! I freakin LOVE Tami. She'll probably be the girl in all my pictures when I start posting them. anywho... HAPPY 4th of JULY!!!!!!! I can't wait for school to start in the fall. It can't come any faster. There is a choir at the institute that i'm excited to try out for. Hopefully it will be just as fun as the ogden one!! I miss everyone. Love you all!!

Weekend

So we did alot the past few days. Fri we went camping and i'm retarded and left my sim card for my camera in my computer so I didn't get any pictures..... so we went to a resevoir called Gunlock and slept under the stars.... man it was hot!! It was like 85 degrees the whole night. It was awesome though!!
We got home sat and then decided to go to the grand canyon so we did.... it was way cool!! Once again no pics because i'm retarded. We got home around 6 and decided to go see a movie so the guys bought and we saw the prince of persia one... can't think of the name. It was good. Then we went and got ice cream. Pretty awesome weekend.
Last night for FHE we went to Sand hollow, it's another resevoir. We just went swimming, they had a boat but there were so many people I just swam out to the boi(no idea how to spell that) a few times. The car that I went in decided to go cliff jumping so we went to the other end and jumped off some cliffs.... The highest one I jumped was probably around 40 feet. That was a rush. I jumped from about 25 feet the next few times ha ha we all jumped at the same time once, it was cool to turn and see everyone in the air ha ha. It was great fun. I'm making lot's of friends and there are a lot of cool people down here.
Last week I went to the LDS services to get some job help. Monday I had a class on my resume so I have a brand new resume and today and tomorrow they are teaching us how to interview and put ourselves out there. I have been applying to about 5 jobs a day so hopefully I will find something soon. That's pretty much what's happend the last few days. I'll try to get more pictures up soon. Love you all!!

The House

Here is an outside picture of the townhouse I live in... that's my car!! ha ha

This is my bedroom looking from the window. Debi is sticking her hand out ha ha she's cool. You can see the bathroom outside our room.

This is the veiw of our room from the door. You can see that we have two little harry potter closets. The one on the right goes into the room next door, which i have a picture of.

This is a picture of the upstairs hallway. The far door is the closet at the top of the stairs, the big door is the laundry room and the mirror close to us, behind that is the main Harry Potter closet to rule all of the Harry Potter closets.

This is Tami's room. her harry potter closet on the left is the one that connects with our room.

This is the closet in the bathroom where we keep all our bathroom needs.

Shot of the shower and you can see the closet with all our needs in it on the right.

This is just a shot of the sink.

Here is the main Harry Potter closet. Debi keeps her crap in here and Tami plays her guitar in here ha ha it's pretty cool.

this is the laundry room..... small but gets the job done.

This is the storage closet at the top of the stairs.

This is the bathroom downstairs. Down the hall to the right is the garage. There is a room on the left and that is where Tori sleeps. She has the master bedroom with the huge closet and nice jet tub in her room. I would have taken a picture but she was sleepin.

This is the kitchen.

dining table

Living room. Best couch in the world!!.

Qoutes

So I watched the Green Mile on TV the other night. I've seen it before but I seem to still sobb like a child when I watch it. Anyway, as I was watching it there was a qoute that he said that caught my attention; ' I'm tire of being a sparrow alone in the rain." John says this when he's getting ready to be put to death. I thought that it was a touching line.
I also just finished reading the book Phanton and there were a few qoutes in there that I liked. " Regret is a very poisonous emotion, it warps and distorts every aspect of a man's life until there's nothing left but bitterness and despair." and also "Disappointment is such an exhausting emotion- all that energy dissipated first in painful hoping and then in futile, hopless resentment."
Ha these seam kinda dark don't they. Well as it so happens..... I went to church yesterday at my new place and I loved it!!!! I haven't felt that welcome in church for a very long long time. It was awesome and next sunday can't come any sooner. So here are a few good uplifting quotes. "Turn towards the sun and all shadows fall behind you." -Helen Keller "When life get's too hard to stand, kneel."-Elder Maxwell
I'm still job hunting. I called a few of the places that I sent resumes into today and they all say it will be a few weeks before I hear back..... i can't wait that long but I guess i'm going to have to. well, life is grand, life is great, and I can't wait to date... ha ha not really I just needed something to fit... anyway, talk to ya'll later!!

Tucker

Ha ha so Tori, the owner of the town house has this cute dog that keeps me company all day, I love him. His name is Tucker and this is how he sleeps.... always I have like ten pictures of him like this ha ha

New roomie

Ok, so my roomie is totally awesome!! We went to lunch today with her friends and my new friends!! They're totally awesome. Debbie is just great. She's a way good photographer and we're gonna do a shoot pretty soon. i'm excited but nervous cause I hate getting my picture taken but it should be fun. She's way easy to talk to and she's just the epitome of cool. I haven't heard back from any of the jobs that i have applied for yet but i'm parying and hopeing that I get the host job at the hospital. That would be cool. Anyway, i'll keep you upated as soon as something knew happens. Miss and love you all!!!!
