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 :)

Back!

Well, this will be short. I really am not good at this, I want to get more into it though.
So, I got back 2 weeks and 2 days ago from the best mission ever! Italy Rome! AMAZING!

I had my family at the airport.. a little bit after I got there. My plane was early.. it was sad for them cause they wanted to be there when i walked in.. they made me posters .. fun Italian ones.
I have such a crafty family.. too bad i have none of those genes whatsoever!

I haven't been up to much. I went out with the missionaries a lot in the first week, then we did other things .. like ALEC'S BASKETBALL GAME! That was awesome. I am so happy that he's playing! He's a great player! I am his #1 fan! (some other people may want to fight me for that title.. but I'll win :D)

I've started applying to BYU.. I don't know yet if i will go. For years I said I didn't want to.. but I kinda do. I don't know yet though if it's the right thing.

Amy and I are planning a branch party for New Years.. it should be interesting.

welp, I'm out for now.. we're going to Halifax today.. to do some shopping and go to the Nutcracker.. fun! girls night(s) out :) i gotta go get ready.

Not very good at this...

Well, my last blog was forever ago.. pretty soon after I got my call. Now it's only 24 days until I leave! CRAZY!! I am so excited! I've gone to the temple already. I went last Saturday. Easter Weekend with my family. (the ones that could be there..)It was Mom, Dad, Ashley, Chad, Nannie and Poppa. I was glad that there weren't too many people there. I was nervous. It was an all around good experience though. We might go Thursday night, if i don't work.

I have almost everything finished for my mission, except for like the biggest thing! haha my Visa stuff. I am waiting for a package I need from the travel department. and They were waiting for the package from my mission. I should be getting it soon, then I'll go to Halifax to meet with the Honorary Consul. then i'll send my application to Montreal, and then hopfully I'll be all good, and VERY hopfully we'll get this all done before the 24th of April!!

I am reallly excited!!! I can't wait! I always used to think that the MTC was going to be scary.. but the only thing I'm scared of now, is that they won't let me into the states, or Italy. I can't wait for the MTC, and the Mission!!! Sure, it'll be hard but soo worth it!

I'm pretty much finished work. I had my last shift on Saturday.. but they are still going to schedule me in for random shift to help out a bit.. so that's cool. I actually really love working at Blockbuster and I love everyone I work with and I'm going to miss them, and working there!

Well, until next time.. who knows when that'll be.. I'll try to do better and write one more often.
Arrivederci! :D
