You are my Sunshine!

Ok, so it is Saturday.... afternoon. (had to look at my watch) Its almost 2pm.
Dad just got home from Hockey a few minutes ago, and said it was a nice day out.. this is how the conversation went:

Dad: You should be outside, it's really nice out!
Me: is it? (I was freezing in my room)
Dad: Yeah, you should go play with your friends
Me: What friends?
Dad: yeah, you should take your computer outside and..
Me :MY computer outside (i have a desktop..)
Dad: You should take my netbook outside and find some picture game to play with your friends.

haha, I'll just add in here that, i'm such a loser! haha most of my friends live outside the country! Robyn lives here, we hang out on Thursdays :)
haha dad knows that most of my friends live far away, so he suggested I go outside and play virtually with my friends haha.. ohh technology, I could actually do that, though I'm not. I'm blogging instead.

I was sitting up in my room watching the second half of Julia and Julie (or the other way around.. boh) just before Dad got home.
Mom had mentioned it being a good movie, and Amy last night said I should watch it, so I did.
Amy said she made some Bruschetta last night after watching it, cause she says everytime she watches that movie she just has to go bake/cook something afterwards. haha well, I watched it, and I just really felt like blogging! Funny. Anyone who hasn't seen this movie, should. It's not my favorite movie, but I enjoyed it, and I do actually feel excited right now to be blogging. Perhaps i missed the point of the movie?

I took some pictures with my phone ( I implemented some of dad's plan.. computer- check, pictures- check, friends-..... )


Me blogging,, you can even see my reflection. how nice.


blogging by the pool.. niiice! too bad the pool wasn't swim-in-able yet.

me blogging outside sans makeup, or a smile.. sun was too bright.

Well, i can't say i'm completely without friends right now..


So, I just got up to go inside to ask dad a question for Alec... and .5 seconds later I come back to find my snack blown over!
LAME!

Anywway, it is really nice out.
It was a nice funeral yesterday, Everything went really well, as far as I know, and not including the musical number which was horribly done by MOI.

Everyone was excited to see Luke though, that was fun. Everyone is glad he's home.
annnnd I'm an idiot.. I made the Flag backwards.. UGH! the one SIMPLE thing I did, I did it wrong! seriously!


Anyway, I'm glad Luke is home too. He can help me with the "Preach My Gospel Crash Course" I (now, we) have to teach to the members here, under the direction of the elders. I think it's a great idea, but I'm glad I'll have help from Luke.

Preach my Gospel (or Predicare il mio Vangelo) ROCKS!! everyone needs one!

Ok, I think I'm done for now. Peace out all!

Bout time Mr.Eyjafjallajökull

welp, I am about to sneak over to the MacDonald's house before they get home with Luke to put a little sign on their door.. "Welcome Home Elder MacDonald"
Mom and I wanted to do a little more decorating.. but mom left this afternoon for Ontario.. and unfortunately, she is the creative one of the two of us.. so he's stuck with just a little sign on the door..
k this is short.. but I have to go MAKE the sign.. haha I've been trying the past little bit, but I'm not having much luck... peace out!

I just want to add a little bit about Brother Ralph Cameron. He died on Tuesday morning. His funeral is tomorrow. I just wanted to say, that I'm grateful for the gospel in my life. I'm grateful that he had it in his as well. He was a great member, and he lived a great life. So many people in Pictou County know, and love him. I had the opportunity to sing at his wife's funeral a few years ago, and I have the opportunity now, to sing at his. I'm singing Each Life That Touches Our for Good. I think it's quite an appropriate hymn for him. I'm glad that he's in a much much better place, and that I'm sure he's much more comfortable now.

Night. :)

Happy Birthday Jeffie Van Hulten

Happy Birthday to Jeff !!

Jeffie, you rock!! I hope you have an awesome day!!! don't worry, 26 isn't that old ;)
Love, ME!

Boh!

First off, I am horible at subject lines! The first part of my mission emailing home, my subject lines were always "Hey" or something boring like that, then Dad told me I had to start being creative, because if I didn't, my emails would be marked as spam or something in his email, so from then on, I always tried to have a unique subject line. NOW, I'm tired, and being the least creative person alive, I no longer have fun subject lines, so we're going with "Boh!" today Enjoy!

Ok, so I'm patiently (only because there is nothing I can do about it) waiting for Eclipse to come out. I am SO excited. But, to hold me over until then, I have a new obsession.

stefan, elaina, damon

The Vampire Diaries!!!!!

1- It's awesome, and it's pretty much pg-13.. nothing too sketch.. 2- look at those vampires!!HELLO! (the girl isn't one)

Today, I got myself caught up. It's still only in it's first season, and it's still not over, so if you want to catch up, you only have 18 episodes to watch.

Today, I answered questions about The Vampire Diaries.. one of them was "Would you date a vampire?" and then you click "yes" or "no" . I contemplated.. i wonder if anyone would see my answer?.. and then I laughed at myself vampires aren't real, who cares!
After a long debate in my head about my answer, I clicked YES! I would totalllllly date a vampire! If he was like Stefan (Vampire Diaries), or Edward (Twilight) or maybe even Damon (Vampire Diaries) :S Heck YEs i would date them. Now, I wish vampires DID exist. haha

YES, i'm a fool!

I'm also having issues with this whole Volcano business! We are supposed to leave for Italy on the 30th. I'm hoping we'll be able to! No worries though, we got insurance on it, so we can get our money back and re-schedule if needed.

Also, poor Luke, is having a rough time trying to get home! He was supposed to get home from his mission in Ireland on Friday but Mr. Eyjafjallajokull (the volcano) has been getting in the way! Who knows when he'll get home! People are getting anxious.

OH! so.. I was accepted into Saint Mary's University!! wHOO HOO! I am really really REALLY excited! I can't wait to get back to school. Now, I'm just looking for an apartment, which is completely impossible this time of year. Everyone just wants to Sublet for the summer! Can you say FRUSTRATING!!?

Psycho!

That would be me.
K so I've finished all the Twilight books. I'm not on to Midnight sun. You probably all know what that is, but for those who don't, it's like twilight, re-written from Edward's perspective. The only thing is, it isn't finished! Stephenie Meyer was working on it as her next project after twilight. She gave a few copies (all of which were unique in some way) to some people. As a result of one of her "trustworthy" friends, not being so worthy of her trust, is that, one of those copies was
leaked onto the Internet!
So, she hasn't finished the book, because of somewhat bitter feelings towards the whole situation.
BUT because Stephenie Meyer is awesome, she posted it on her site, so as to save her fan from doing anything illegal! Thank you Steph! (haha yep, we're friends.. not, but it's OK to pretend right?)

SO, I'm currently reading that, and loving it.

It's sick how much I loved the books, and how into them I got. Ask Ashley, Jade, or Chris especially.. i was texting them begging them to know what was going to happen next cause I couldn't take the suspense. haha. and only Jade -reluctantly- gave in to my begging.

Anyway. That's enough about that.

ITALY! I am so excited to go back! Mom, Dad, and I are leaving Halifax on April 30th (2 months before eclipse comes out haha) flying to Florence. Staying there a bit, then making our way to the other cities i served in aka- Livorno, Pistoia, Rome/Ladispoli. We are also going to Pisa, and Bologna. OH and a new addition to the trip, we're going to pompei! We're gonna see the volcano!!! ooo scary! I promise I will post pictures. THEN it's off to Greece! I think we will be there for 3 days? Then home again home again jiggity jig. May 13th we get home.

I'm sorry to Bobby and Laramie, that I won't be able to be at their weddings!!!

So other than that, not much is up. I started doing some different stuff for Dad. I'm totally confused by it, but I'm sure I'll catch on.

I have been home for 4 months and 11 days! That seems weird, sometimes it feel like a lot, and sometimes it doesn't seem like much at all. BOH.
My Elders go home next transfer. WEIRD!

Welp, I'm outta hurr for now. I will try to learn more about all this, so i can be less boring, and stick some pictures or something on here.

On to Book 2- New Moon

Well, I JUST finished Twilight, holy HECK the book is 400 thousand times better than the movie! They leave out such detail! Reading the book literally made my heart rate freak out a bit. haha.
I want to start reading New Moon immediately, but i know as soon as I start, I'll be giving up my life for the next 2 days give or take, and that pattern will continue through until i've finished the rest of the books.

I also think my love life is now doomed because of my reading.
HAPPY DAY :)

Seriously, not good at this

Alright.. new/still boring update on post mission life!

I'm doing nothing. haha. kidding(ish)

I'm working for dad, but still in the training process, so still unpaid.
I went to visit Amy and Steve in Alberta in January.
While there, I took an adventurous 2.5 days bus ride to Utah! I got to see my Family, The Earls, there, and some mission friends. It was pretty great. I love Utah!! BUT the trip was way too fast, and I didn't get to see NEARLY as many people as i really wanted to see. It made me sad, BUT I make trips to Utah as often as possible, so I will be seeing them all in the somewhat near future.

Currently Mom, Dad, and I are planning our trip to Italy. .. annnd Mom just came in my room to tell me the flight is booked. FUN! We are leaving on April 30th and flying into Florence. I think i MAY have a heart attack with our stop-overs.. i panic a LOT with stop-overs in general, but we have like 3 of 'em! and both on the way there and back we stop in Montreal which is the WORST airport in the whole entire universe! I despise it. Oh well, can't do anything about it now..
We are coming back on the 13th of May.
Even though it seems impossible, I'm hoping for some sort of miracle so that i can be in Utah the next day for Laramie and Nathaly's Wedding. Here's praying!

I'm applying to St. Mary's University, and I am insanely excited to get back to school. I can't stand it anymore. I need school!!
So, I'll be moving to Halifax in the fall, to start my life of large amounts of debt! How exciting!
Well, I'm feeling rather sickly today, and the computer screen hurts me. So I'm out. PEACE!

btw- i'm finally reading twilight and i'm in LOVE! haha I won't specify if its love for the book, or for edward :)
