"Don't worry, I was a boy scout..... My mind is a compass!" - Couple's Retreat*

*Side Note: Couple's retreat was NOT a good movie. It had a lot of dirtyness in it and wasn't very funny. There were like 3 times I laughed. And twice was the same thing just at different parts of the movie.... wait till you can redbox it if you really want to see it. So you only waste a dollar instead of ten...

My Dad is Cooler than your Dad...

I love my Dad. He is the WORLDS BEST DAD!!! I am pretty sure he deserves a major award for
having me as a daughter. He is wonderful. I couldn't ask for a better Dad. Here is why my Dad is so amazing.. Just from things he did today....

• He went to Costco just to buy me tampons (by himself)
• He planned his day around bringing me lunch
• Stopped everything he was doing just to meet me at the bank to talk to the loan officer
• He carried my beauty supply bag out to the car for me
• He lets me drive around his truck
• He cleaned MY bathroom for me so my Mom wouldn't be angry... including picking up my make-up and hair stuff
• He helped me (and still is helping me) find a car
• Always makes me laugh... even after yelling at him and telling him I am PMSing and to leave me alone....

My dad has a billion things he could do everyday, and today he was especially busy. But he still takes time to make sure I am happy. Thanks Dad. I love you!

Uh-ohhhhh

I think I am already getting stressed about school. This is NOT a good thing. I was going over my graduation report. Trying to plan when I will take what classes. When I got down to a few upper level classes and had to SOUND OUT THE NAME of the class!!! Oh my gosh! Hooked on foniks workeded four me... yep....

Homecoming and Pretty Girls

One of the main reason I wanted to go to beauty school is to do up do's and make-up for homecoming/ prom/ special occasions for the girls that don't know how to do their own hair and make-up, or maybe the girls that do and just like to be pampered (wow... longest run on sentence ever..) Anywho! So tonight was homecoming for Meridian and Ferndale. I did my cousin Alli's hair (didn't get any pictures of her...) and make-up. She looked beautiful! I also did Hannah and Heidi Hoyt's hair.... and make-up....

I love these girls... they make me sooo happy! Even though they call me Sister Chapin ;)

These girls are soooo puurrtty!!!!!!

Heidi won Homecoming Princess for Sophmore class! Yay gooo Heid!Also, since I took pictures of these cute girls that means I found my camera! Yay (ok basically it means I cleaned my room) So here are some pictures from Wicked..
My Mommy, Daddy and me....

I was bored on the way to Seattle and TRIED to be creative... with no success....My Mom's luck... sit behind world's tallest man....

This is the back drop.... It's a map of Oz (No duh!)

That is all :)

I Love to See the Temple....

....I'm going there Someday...

Dear Life,

I love you! I couldn't be any happier (well maybe if my car was bought...)! I think you are ridiculous though... sometimes you just think you are sooo funny! I actually agree. You are pretty funny. Looking back on the last 2 years I just laugh now (cuz I couldn't then) and now I think... When I left Rexburg and BYU-I I thought and said "I'm done with you and am NEVER coming back!" Never say never... right? Right! Well, it's official... We are going back. Back to BYU-I! And I couldn't be happier! (??WHAT!??) But it's true. School starts January 5th. We are gonna have a blast! Living with Buddha (aka Melissa). How fun! I seriously can't wait! Political Science and Business will be our time fillers (aka majors). That I am not too excited about (ya know.. the school part!). I think it will be a good move for us. But, I just have one favor... could you stop making me eat my words. I promise to be more open to things. But I am glad that you are FINALLY falling into place! I haven't been this happy since.... well in a very long time! So.. thank-you, Life. For making me happy!

Love,
Me

Beauty...

I love this new commercial for Dove and Wal-Mart.



I love it because I think sometimes people get caught up in beauty as a size 00 long blonde hair.... However I think that beauty comes in all sorts of shapes and sizes and colors and ways. No matter what color your hair is, what size your waist is, if your eyes are big or small. No matter what you don't like about your self, your insecurities are what sets you apart from everyone else. I have always said (kind of as a joke) that I don't hang out or associate with ugly people. As rude as this statement can be taken. It IS true. I think that all of my friends/ family members are beautiful. For their own individual reasons. I was always made fun of my looks while I was in school. And people have said things here and there about my looks.. Now that I am 22 years old I have finally come to the realization that we are all beautiful and amzing in our own ways. So, I am glad that Dove/ Wal-Mart are trying to show the world that we are all beautiful in our own ways...

WICKEDly Awesome

On Thursday night my parents and I had the opportunity to go down to Seattle and watch the Broadway show Wicked. It was amazing! I loved it. We had pretty good seats too so that was exciting. If you don't know what Wicked is about (really none of us did) it is about the Witches from the Wizard of Oz. It tells how Glenda (with a "Ga") became the "Good Witch" and how the wicked witch "Alphie" became the Wicked Witch. It also shows how the Lion, Scarecrow and the Tin man all came to be. The play was not only entertaining but also funny! I really enjoyed it. It was wicked-ly awesome.


And I figured since I am already talking about "Wicked"ly awesome things... (Get it?) I should mention another thing that has brightened up my day recently. For instance.... I bought a black laptop bag/ purse. I found this sweet deal and the one and only K-Mart. I saw it and thought "Oh that's cute... I wish it was like $2.99 though". Sure enough. Look down at the price and it was $2.99. So then I went around saying "I wish this was $.50" I guess I got a little greedy. Oh well, I will take what I can get!


I just love things that make me happy especially when they are wickedly awesome!!
**Please note, I could NOT find my camera and have been saving this post for a few days. As soon as I find my camera I will post pictures. I promise!
