To. The. Day. I'm not going to explain. This post is more for me. Its been a really long journey?! dont know if thats the right word. I just know that my brother and I as sooo much more better for it. I remember being so incredibly angry and rejected...now its just sad. I know it will turn full circle one day and im dreading that day but until then im very much happy where i am right now. I dont think i could have handled the state my brother was in back then anymore. To six years.

I ♥ the library

2009-06-25T21:56:00.000-07:00

I just love the library! I use to go ALL the time when i was a kid and today i decided to go. I kind of cough*owe*money*cough (since highschool) to the library and last year during amnesty week i tried to pay it but the lady was so stereotypical and rude so i left. But since i have Andrew we used his card. Its awesome! I tried to familiarize myself with the layout and know where what is, and aside from the hobo funk smell it gives off i love the smell of books. Weird? And they have it like its self check out, AND you get to check out 50 books at a time. I wouldn't do that i learned my lesson.
im currently reading A Room of One's Own by Virginia Woolf.

June 23rd marked our 2nd year anniversary. It was great, we went to sushi (what else) and i was in sushi heaven. Ahh. Dont have any pictures BUT i have a little story. This couple next to us at the restaurant wouldnt talk to each other. The girl never looked up from texting on her phone and the guy looked so bored. When they did talk it hurt my ears. They would argue and maybe the guy did something jerky to her before dinner idk however when it was time for them to go she just got up and left. No word to the guy. I mean not that i was paying much attention to them or anything. Happy Anniversary babe!!

Do you wanna get frosty with me?

2009-06-24T17:45:00.000-07:00

A while back a remember drea blogged about her
favorite commercial and im going to post mine up. It makes me crack up everytime i see it.

My favorite part its just the head shot of the guy singing.

Personal Frustration

2009-06-13T20:53:00.000-07:00

Dear Journal,

I went to the temple today. It was great! Who did i happen to come across? Why Melsa's folks of course! We talked and laughed and it was great. Very humbling. Then we went to my favorite place in the world ~~eye roll~~ Wal Mart. And i got some cup cake stuff for my primary kiddies.

On a little side note, today is the day journal, that tickets for Kings of Leon come out on sale. How much are the tickets you might ask? Well, 42 big ones for the cheapest so you can only image how much the good seats are. UGH!!!! Really journal? What happened to the good ole days of paying 15 bucks. So even if those days where when the Huntridge was still open but still 25 the most. I can almost CRY! Yea i know im being dramatic but its Kings of Leon! How can i persuade Andrew on that? We would be dropping a bill IF and when everything was said and done. I mean its not the Deftones but i want to go to a concert sooo bad! o well. The important thing is that i went to the temple.

~D

Problemo. I seriously cant find my phone. Im S.O.L. Im not all that freaked out about it because no one really calls me but your cell phone becomes like some sort of appendage and mine grew legs and ran away. It is on to me and didnt like being neglected from not being charged every night. -sigh-
FOUND IT! YEA. its was at work. im careless with my poor phone.

It came!

2009-05-19T22:50:00.000-07:00

It FINALLY came! My bento box and accessories came. For those of you who dont know what a bento is, its a Japanese lunch[box]. They are neat and i finally got mine today! its prolly been in my mail box for a while since we are awful at regularly checking it but who cares.

JAPAN! I love it

i wont explain ill let this picture do that

ive wanted to get some sort of feel of my camera. i did NOT and i am NOT going to have this camera be one of those things were i just leave in the box. No way jose. after work i got my camera and lens and headed outside. You know random practice shots and what not. Can i just add that i had no idea how many people come out after 5 just for whatever reason. im not too happy about the shots and i got some really weird looks but i like these two the most.

24

2009-05-19T20:30:00.000-07:00

i've been getting some crap for not posting and i feel the need to explain. I have just finished reading the Harry Potter Saga; all 7 freaking books. I go into this 'zone' when i am reading something thats really interesting all else just isnt as important.

So unpreventable i grudgingly turned 24 (ugh) at the end of april. so to document the moment my super-mother-in-law made a great little dinner and the best thing happen. Along with getting the new KINGS OF LEON cd and my gray chuck's my husband suprised me with an SLR camera, the Rebel Xsi Canon slr. Andrew got it in silver because thats all it came in, i did make a little stink about the color at first because i mean i love the color black and thats the only color camera's should come in but i got a freaking slr camera so ill hold my tongue. the camera came with the 18-55mm lens but andrew got me an ultrasonic 75-300mm lens too. i love you andrew!

isnt it pretty?

Osaka

2009-04-19T00:37:00.000-07:00

Ok first and foremost Andrew came home not in the same way than he left today. His calling required him to be in day camp for scouts and he was out in the sun for a while and he came back sun burnt on his face and back of the neck. I was very upset over this. He was dressed up as a pirate and was wearing a bandanna...out in the sun. You can totally see the pink line right across the middle of his forehead. Aloe Vera and sun screen. I cant trust him to go anywhere.

i love sushi
japanese soda

I believe i have expressed my love for sushi in the past. So for my graduation present my awesome in-laws took the family to Osaka which is one of my favorite sushi restaurants now. It was my first time there; I have been looking forward to it for a while now and i just love sushi. I wish i knew how to speak/write/understand Japanese. My in-laws aren't much for sushi but they were sports and I know they had fun with the guy on the grill who was making their food. And i had a piece of the fillet Mignon and i don't willingly eat steak but man that was freaking good. You get where im going with this. A very good night spent with family.

wow that sounded really cheesy...

Cant stand...

2009-04-11T22:25:00.000-07:00

WAL-MART. It's Easter Eve(word ?) and everyone is in Wal-Mart buying last minute stuff. Some one put me out please. I mean people are buying stuff like its there last chance. Ugh i cant stand it.

Hair

2009-04-03T00:12:00.000-07:00

I don't know what possessed me to get sucked in to the stupid trivial gossip but sadly i did and can i tell you what i thought when i saw this? Holy hair! THIS is what I'm aiming for and it squashed any thoughts about me cutting my hair. Its Lindsay Lohan after a new do. OK so there might be a chance that those long locks are extensions but extensions or no extensions I want my hair that long!

...One day ...one day....

DONE

2009-03-28T22:32:00.000-07:00

March 26th will be marked as the day i am officially done GOING to school. I still have a ways ahead of me in that i need to take a written test and a mock state board but that's like in a month. Yea I'm scared but right now I'm done with school and that's what really matters people.
Andrew and I celebrated by going to Cafe Rio. Cafe Rio is AWESOME and they have Horchata. I mean come on!

I'm actually going to miss school:(

Side note:
Conversation Andrew and i had this evening that went something like this

Andrew: Hun bun...?
Me: yea
Andrew: Sometimes you look Japanese
Me: ...bursts out laughing...

Guess what?!?!?!

2009-03-10T15:28:00.001-07:00

Guess?

Seriously guess???
***************************************
I'm not pregnant!
I know isn't it awful?

Let me explain; I got grief over not blogging and was told to make it up if i didn't have anything to blog about. I was head set on saying i was pregnant in the beginning but I chickened out. (I got alot of ladies who would seriously be pissed if i faked it.)

I just don't have children or live a cool existence to post about everyday.

Ill try tho. Here goes:

Along with March being the month of March Madness it also mean that I will be DONE with school at the end of this month. Can I get a hallelujah? I am pumped and can't wait for it to be over. Although I will miss all the free wax services I get at school. And once I have passed my written and practical state board, it will be official.

Ok so here's another thing. I want to get a really cool SLR camera but since Andrew wants to get a house -Yea that's another thing: a HOUSE. So this SLR camera that i want is on the expensive side and the whole purpose besides the obvious of capturing the candid and not so candid moments of my future children; i want to get it for my make up portfolio. That way i can show people that I'm legit and I know what I'm doing. I just know this camera will capture the make up so much better then a point and shoot camera. It's frustrating. And then i have Andrew telling me that its all in how you shoot the picture with the camera that you have. Although there is some truth to that, I want to yell: It's really the camera and the lenses buddy!!! Can someone please help me out? Pretty please?

Cuties and Other

2009-02-16T15:24:00.001-08:00

So i was web surfing and i came upon this website: http://www.bust.com/ where i came across these videos. One word: ADORABLE

This mom with her 4 year old, happen to be from France, videotapes her little one telling stories. The quotes from these stores are turned into merch and all proceeds go to an organization who get needy Mongolia kids with books. Cool huh?

When I grow up I want my kids to speak French

Once upon a time... from Capucha on Vimeo.

And this cute kid is rocking out to Hey Jude

While I'm at it...

This is a very good parody, I mean they got everything right.

This is just plain funny, I about pee'd myself and yet I was embarressed for her at the same time.

Valentines Day in Utah

2009-02-16T12:08:00.000-08:00

Andrew and i drove to Utah for the weekend. One of my bestest friends (yeah, its a word) passed through the temple for the first time on Valentines Day and we were lucky enough to be there and see it. Totally awesome, what wasn't so awesome was the snow. I've realized that snow is meant to be liked and seen at a distance, at a period of small time. Not to live with. It snowed pretty good Friday night in Salt Lake City and we stayed another day in SLC. Andrews bestest friend, Ben lives in Provo and met with us at this totally cool restaurant called the Red Iguana. Good authentic Mexican food, went to the Bountiful Temple afterwards and saw Jamie. I cant best describe something seen through the eyes of someone else, go through something for the first time. Definitely overwhelming but all in a good way.

So I'm a loser and my camera err Andrews camera stayed in the car's middle compartment all through the trip, so no pictures:(

Happy Valentine's Day!

BTW: I FINALLY finished reading Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte. I need to read it a second time though.

Valentine's/Runway/Fantasy

2009-02-12T23:54:00.000-08:00

At school today we had this little contest going on. We (students) had to partner up with another student and make up their face to have a Valentine'es/Runway/Fantasy look. We were given three hours and our teachers judges. Not surprising were that our (esti) teachers were not there so i have no idea who won. I don't care so much about winning although it would be really nice but i really enjoyed doing my friend Jodi's make up.

White face with fuschia pink X and O, white feather eyelashes and small x and o's on the lower part of the O with rhinestones.

This lady above has a really cool cupcake look! I especially like the creative cherry on her head.

This lovely hawaiian has an awesome heart with black feathers as eyelashes.

Jodi loved it! Ecstatic it turned out great!

Burnt

2009-01-23T22:28:00.000-08:00

January 17Th while I was checking to see how the sauce with the meatballs was coming, I lifted the lid of the saucepan and it was bubbling like crazy. In the madness, a sauce bubble landed on my left arm. I licked it right quick and grabbed some ice packs. It doesn't hurt anymore I just have this nasty battle scar and I put Aloe Vera which makes it look like I have fungus or something.

I also want to add that Andrew and I had the privilege to have dinner with Melsa and her hubby Adam at the CPK in the Fashion Show Mall. That place is symbolic to us. I had an awesome time chatting it up with them. We will definitely have to do it again.

How could I forget?

2009-01-10T22:31:00.001-08:00

Seriously, how did I forget this?

I braved the strip and went to Sephora in the Venetian and bought a small fortune of make-up. It was not cheap thats all I have to say. So spread the word, Hire me to do your make-up!

sushi:)

2009-01-10T22:17:00.000-08:00

私は寿司を愛する! Which means I love sushi! Last Saturday not this Saturday since its guy night at my place tonight. Andrew and I had some yummy sushi at Sushi Ko. He suggested we eat sushi after I got home from school that day, he was a tad hesitant since I have braces and asked if it was ok. I told him that I would stuff the sushi in my mouth and use my back teeth, I was going to eat sushi man! It so made my day and we ate loads of sushi. Refer to pictures below. Did I mention how much i love sushi?

cant.sleep.

2008-12-23T03:10:00.000-08:00

I went to bed early Monday, i believe it was 9 something. 9 SOMETHING! That's a humongo record for me. I don't know if it was the Tylenol i took or my teeth still hurt but i was out. I think due to falling asleep early i woke up early. I woke up at 2:30am. What the frejollies?!

2 Sundays ago my mother in law had the Hair family tradition, Gingerbread House Party. My brother and his girlfriend even came. It was awesome. There was a plethora of food that i think i inhaled most of and then after the food we got to do our ginger bread house. We decided to have a Nightmare Before Christmas theme. Not bragging or anything but i think there is a likeness to it. The best part i enjoyed was spending time with the family and especially my brother. I miss him.

Second since i have not decorated for Christmas or gotten a tree for Christmas. Or even bought gifts for Christmas (I know i suck) we did all the shopping Monday. Can i just say its not great being on a "budget". I'm seriously going to draw a tree, stick it on the wall and Andrew and I our going to take our Christmas picture in front of it. Being poor blows. This year we are being very frugal with our money and our gifts kind of show that. Not saying they are bad gifts just wish i could get more. I think most of America agrees with me.

Third, my teeth hurt because I got braces Monday morning. I'm a tad self conscious with the spaces in my teeth and I'm getting that fixed. Cant take long to guess the reason to our frugality. And can i repeat how awesome my husband is? No complaining what so ever on his part. All support. Love him.

Fourth, Sundays: Andrew and I like to go over to my in-laws and have dinner and spend family time over there. After dinner and Andrew trying to teach us the game, Hearts, my brother in law wanted us to head over to this house that has lights synchronized to music. A true must see, its on Durango and Redcoach. Just a nice regular house, you park your car across the street, you turn on your radio, i think the station was 94.4FM. Could be wrong. And the lights on the house go along with the music they play on the radio.

Fifth: I am super duper excited to see my friends. I miss them. Drea is coming to Vegas this week and I cant wait to see her. And Melsa is coming in January! I need J and I'm set.
