Black Student Union BBQ!

Here I am...with my roommates waiting for our friend Binny to come pick us up for the annual Black Student Union BBQ at UVU!  I hope they let us in! 

Last night my roommate Ashley and I went to Salt Lake to go dancing at the Sandbar.  So fun!  Look at our outfits!


School as been so great this week!  It flew by which means I'm having fun!  I was sort of uneasy about school the first couple of days, but then I actually cut hair on a mannequin and realized it wasn't that hard and actually kind of fun!  We're doing a Halloween competition on the 26th of October and I'm SO EXCITED!  We have to get in groups of 4 and dress a model up as either a villian or a cartoon character.  So we're picking one of the instructors and dressing her up as Ursula from the Little Mermaid.  It's going to be so great!  I can hardly wait.  We're putting on a fashion show and everything!  Hopefully we win...that's all I want.

Welp!  I know I've been pretty crappy at blogging this week...I've just been so busy it's unreal!  I'm not used to getting up at 7:00 in the morning and getting done with school at 5:00 every night.  Doesn't leave too much time for blogging :) 

OK!  I'm signing off now.  Until next time...

First Day of School!!

So...today was my first day of school...I woke up a little late.  But that's okay :) I still made it there on time! 

And within the first hour I was giving another girl a scalp treatment!  AND they told me that I have to cut hair on Friday!!!!  I'm so nervous!  OK people are at my house now I need to go but I'm going to blog later tonight.

I PROMISE!!!!

Home Sweet Home

Longest.  Day.  Ever.

Not really, the drive really wasn't that bad.  A couple eventful things happened.  I was driving right behind a car that started on fire randomly...they pulled off to the side of the road and I called 911 for them.  That was sorta scary.

Then this stupid lady was trying to race me for LITERALLY 3 hours of my trip.  Ugh.  I've never had such road rage before in my LIFE!

I'm going to see if I can figure out how to add some pictures on here from this weekend....let's see here...

This is Grammy and I at the top of a mountain in Rocky Mountain National Park.  When my mom was driving up and there weren't any guard rails I thought Gram was going to have a panic attack.  She was practically leaning over the arm rest in the front seat to make sure we didn't fall over the edge.  Ha!
Mom and I at the same spot on the mountain.  My mom is such a pretty lady :)
We had a picnic in RMNP also, it was so good!  We at fried chicken, potato salad, deviled eggs, fruit salad, anything you could ever want!  Apparently my mom and I were taking too long to compliment Grammy on her cooking skills, so she just decided to do it herself.  She said to us, "Well!  Aren't I just such a good cook?!"
 
 
Two great pictures with two great women :)

We took these last night before we went out to dinner with my mom's friend, Jay.  We went to a mexican restaurant - I can't even remember the name of it.  None of us had ever heard of it or been there or anything.  We were going off of MapQuest directions, hoping it would be easy to find.  We got off on the exit to go eat, and we all assumed that it would be one of the only mexican restaurants in the area.

My, oh my, were we wrong.

There were LITERALLY about 15 Mexican restaurants on the 4 blocks leading to the one we were trying to find.  We thought it was so funny that there were so many!  Maybe you had to be there but....uhh.......er.....

Welp - I start school tomorrow - and I need to be there at 8:15 AM.  I don't even know what to do with myself.  I'm setting my alarm for 6:30 tomorrow morning.  I haven't woken up that early in who knows how long!  My cell phone is ALLLLLL the way across my bedroom so I make sure to actually get OUT of bed and wake up. 

Honestly, I'm pretty nervous about starting school tomorrow.  I just hope I'm good at this!  Because if I'm not, I have no idea what I'm going to do with my life!  I think after we go through the orientation and everything tomorrow I'll feel a lot better - but I'm pretty anxious about it tonight!

Until next time (who knows - it could be in an hour when I can't sleep because of how nervous I am!) good night and be good!

I've Got a LONG Day Ahead of Me

Welp - this weekend has been amazing :)  I've had so much fun with my mom and my grandma.  SO many memories!  I can't wait to scrapbook them all :) yes - I DO scrapbook.

I've gota  497.56 mile drive ahead of me.  It's almost noon and I haven't even left yet.  My goal is to be home by 9....so I need to leave within the next hour.  If any of my followers read this - please please please text me (I know...it's dangerous) on my drive.  I'll be so bored it's not even funny.

I'll be posting pictures of this weekend as SOON as I get home tonight.  My mom gave me a computer cord so I can FINALLY use mine again.  I think it's been about 4 months since mine broke so I'm in desperate need of a new one. 

If I die on my drive home - which I'm really hoping I don't - I want you all to know how much I love you and miss you.  You are all so great and I want pink roses at my funeral and a black casket.  And Cassie - you're the primary spokesperson :) and I want you to help my parents plan it.  You always throw a good party.

I love you all, and I'll be posting again soon :)
