I never thought i'd care

If my teacher missed three classes in a row. Yes, three. 

I know what most of you are thinking, are you kidding me? Isn't that a dream come true? And thats what I thought too, at the beginning, but guys we have literally not heard a word from this guy for the last week and a half. 

We were coming up with scenarios in class today, since once again he didn't show. We concluded that he must have gotten kidnapped by a Deaf person that he offended while he was interpreting for them. They put him in a shipping crate and took him to a country that no body knows of and left him there to be eaten by a lion with no wifi or reception. 

Yep that sounds about right. 

Lets just say my day hasn't had the best beginning, and then my friend creepily snuck up behind me and cleared his throat. 

As I sat here taking pictures of myself as he made me laugh, I realized that life could be much worse. At least I have people that know how to make me laugh in life, that's a plus. 

Side-note, I'm dying my hair red today. Pray for me, I'm terrified, probably.

st. geezy

It's about time I did this post, these kids have been waiting months. Kim and I ventured down to the lovely land of St. Geezy over Valentines day weekend with some buds, because that's what you do when you're single and living life. We wanted to party and that's exactly what we did.

Love you kiddo's more than life, and you better never forget it!

Dear Grandpa and Grandma Craven,

      I'm missing you a little more lately. As I sit here listening to 

Beautiful Savior, I'm reminded by the both of you. I wish I realized 

before Grandpa got sick how blessed I was to know the both of you. 

Grandpa, thank you for living a great legacy and for giving me the 

opportunity to live up to it.  Grandma, I apologize that I didn't take 

advantage of those few months you were on this earth without grandpa, 

however I am grateful for the moments we did have and for what an 

outstanding women you were.

      I'm learning for myself what you have always known. I'm learning 

so much about life and the Gospel. My heart is growing with love for 

this Church that I have never had before. I'm understanding more and 

more each and every day.

      To put it simply, thank you. Thank you for effecting generations 

with your great examples. Thank you for helping me become a better 

person while you were on this earth and now that you have left it. I'm 

especially thankful that when I get to talk about the many miracles that 

have happened in my family I am reminded of you two.

     with love your granddaughter,

life is a whole lot more exciting with this girl

Last night we went on a little excursion to the gro-cer-y store on our way home from work, because that's what you do when you're trying to figure out what to make for dinner.

We finished our purchases and started walking out the door. 

Kimberly dropped the receipt, she looked at me, I know what that look means.

I told her I wasn't picking it up, I had groceries in my arms.

I'm sure she would have left it, but we had a lesson in Sunday school a few months ago about littering. It still resonates with us just a little bit.

 "Tamara" it was starting, it always starts like this. I'm used to it. I just kept walking as she slid the receipt under her foot, "TAMARA" that's when it happened "TAMARA GET BACK HERE RIGHT NOW. SERIOUSLY GET BACK HERE AND APOLOGIZE. SAY YOU"RE SORRY." Everyone was staring, I smile and yelled back "BAD NEWS I'M NOT LISTENING, WORSE NEWS YOU'RE MAKING A SCENE." I finally make it to the car, she followed. "Weellllllll, I hope you're here to apologize" were her last remarks. Then we both got in the car and as we started driving away we saw the cart boy pushing his carts smiling, and laughing just a little bit.

Everyone needs a little excitement in their lives, we choose to get it by making scenes at the grocery store.

People smiling and laughing are a bonus. 

Really though.

Her personality and incredible good looks bring all the friends to the yard. Seriously.

She's the reason that I even have friends.

We're having a little tourney with these so called friends she's introduced me to, the official title is Smash.

When ever we get together we play Super Smash Bros. They're pretty good, I'll give them that.

We've got 'em beat though. They have no chance.

See? There's a lot at stake. 

Who ever loses has to go to the Valentines Day dance, which isn't a bad thing if your tradition isn't watching horror movies on this worthless holiday. Unless you have some hunk to cuddle with, then congratulations, you did what we couldn't. 

i'm addicted

Two things, The Bachelor and Flappy Bird. 

This isn't a confession, this is a warning.

Oh Juan Pablo.

I promise myself every season that I won't watch this television show you call reality tv, but it always seems to suck me. 

I crumble under the pressure when they announce who will be next. "I loved him, I want him, I'll settle with watching him". 

I'm so proud of my sisters that toughened it up and stopped, but I can't get over the drama in the girls house. It really makes no sense, especially when the odds of  all of them getting their heart broken is 99.99%.

Good job girls, you keep me watching. Please continue to cry and make it a little interesting. 

I'm watching to tonight...with my roommates. They support me.

Never start Flappy Bird, don't even download it. 

It's a worthless game that can never be won.

I got sucked into this unhealthy vortex.

I played 2 hours straight yesterday with nothing to show for it except a whopping high score of 36, I screamed and jumped with joy....I need help.

I"m deleting it.

this and that

I don't want this blog post to end out being another "I promise to blog", because really I don't know if anyone cares all that much or even if I do. I've decided that this blog is just going to be my rambles about life. The only words that I have to say right now are; I'm missing the sun, and I don't mean that sun thats lurking in the sky while the snow is still at bay. I want the really stuff...I want summer back.
I want my sun kissed skin and the few freckles that appear on my face.
I love freckles I wish I had more.
I want to make my one swimsuit line, some day I will. That's a promise.
I wish I was brave enough to die my hair red.
I love to feed people. I don't know why, maybe it's because I miss cooking for my dad.
I love my dad.
I love my family
I want to jump in my car right this second and go to St. George and see my new nephew, and the rest of the little nuggets that live down there. I miss them a little too much and their cute faces, besides I hear the weather is warm down there right now, and it could hold me off 'til summer.
Maybe I'll move down there.
I made too many new goals for the new year, I got a little stressed and now I'm slacking. I should really work on that.
I am so blessed, my Heavenly Father loves me. I see it in my family, my friends, my schooling, the gospel, my testimony, the list is endless.
My institute class is the best, hands down. It makes me a better person.
I made a deaf friend, we talking for 25 minutes in sign language. It was weird. I've come so far, I can almost see the end in sight.
Nienie is inspiring.
Kim and I are going to start vlogging....I think.
I got a raise from my glorious boss, very unexpected and an answer to a prayer.
I love libraries, I could walk around one for days.
I want a horse.
Most of all, I want happiness. Which I have, and life couldn't get much better right now.

im backkk

Heeyyyyyy, it's been a while. Yeah, it's been a while.

I was reading through my blog and realized how much I miss this cyber world of friends.

Well kids it's just me tonight. Cookin' myself some grub, while my roommates are out and about in this cold weather. It's October peeps! How could time fly by so quickly. 

It's slightly chilly in my apartment I might just go cuddle up in a blanket and watch a scary movie by myself. Tis the season. 

WHERE'S A HUNK WHEN  YOU NEED ONE???
