Update of my life and then, Christmas Adam :)

Update: I am so glad that I am done with my first semester of college. I passed math 1010 (barely) but I passed and that is the important part. I now have a job at ancestry.com and I love it! I work with my lovely sister who got me the job in the first place. The environment of the workplace is so great. It has a healthy amount of stress because it is a job, but its pretty chill and they put a lot of work into making it a place that people want to work. I'm lovin it!

Ever since I took a weight training class last semester, I have fallen in love with lifting weights so now one of my favorite places is Golds gym. That is second only to my couch watching Grey's Anatomy with my beloved mom! We spend so much time laughing and crying while watching that show. I love it!

Christmas Adam (Adam came before Eve;) )

So yesterday, I slept in :) I love that! And I woke up, finished memorizing The Living Christ to complete a challenge of a friend. Then I went to the gym and saw like 7 people that I know,

then I went to Ernie's and saw 3 more people that I know. Haha! Then I went to blockbuster and picked up another disc of Grey's Anatomy of course :) and then I went and visited my friend that just got surgery on his torn ACL. Then Wes came over to my house and played my guitar for a while and then we went to Farr's for some frozen yogurt and he beat me at my own game :( He and I made this game up in April where you stick the spoon to your nose and you have to try to blow it in the cup. I kicked his trash the first time we played, but yesterday must have been an off day or something because I couldn't do it!

Then I ditched him for my little blonde girls Kate and Penny! I love those kiddos! They came over and watched 2 very intense episodes of Grey's and then We had some hot Cocoa (notice the ice cream in front of penny)

Then we got sleepy, played the ugly face picture game for a while, facebook stalked people, watched a bunch of youtube videos and then made a FORT!! In case you haven't noticed, I like having sleepovers in forts! :)

And yes, those are footie PJ's I'm wearing! they have Sock Monkey on the feet. :)

So that was my Christmas Adam. I would say it was a day well spent :)

TYRONE!

K, so if you know me at all, you know I LOVE Tyrone Wells! Well, on Nov 1st, I got to go to his concert at the Velour in Provo. I went with Mark Garrett which was great! Mark saw one of his mission buddies in line who actually had access to 2 free tickets! Does it get any better? A little! Not only did I get to go see my favorite musician for FREE, but I got to meet him again just like last year! It was such a lovely experience! I love him so much! The local opener was Ryan Innes and he was really really good, and so fun to watch. The other openers that were on tour with Tyrone were okay, but they weren't as entertaining. It was a really great concert! I can't wait for his next album. He said it's coming out early next year! (Late Christmas present hint!) In the picture above, he is singing with his wife Elina. She's so beautiful! They have an album together that I'm not a very big fan of, but that doesn't lessen my love for Tyrone!

I'm In Miami!

Day 1/2: The Flight

So, our flight was around 12:30 in the afternoon but we had a lay-over in BALTIMORE so it took us a while to get to Ft. Lauderdale. Our flight to Baltimore was pretty uneventful, but the next flight made up for all of that. Since we flew via Southwest, we didn't have assigned seats, so we all moved up to the very front row of the plane so we could get off SUPER fast when the time was appropriate. Well when you sit on the front row, you don't have a chair in front of you to put your bag under so I had to put my backpack in an over-head compartment. It had my laptop and school stuff and scriptures in it. So, we were sitting in our front row seats watching people come in and it was like a parade. We saw all sorts of people come on, most of which were dressed pretty snazzy. Well, this one guy comes on the plane, and he wasn't with anyone else. He tried to put his bag in an over-head compartment where it wasn't going to fit, so he tried somewhere else, and that wasn't working, so he turned my backpack and pushed it to the back of the compartment and shoves his bag in, but it wasn't really fitting so he hit it with both hands 4 times, kept one hand on the bag to keep it in, and closed the compartment, all the while, smashing mine. Olivia leaned over to me and was like "when you get your backpack, drop his on the ground and step on it a few times." So I laughed at that and watched everyone else come on the plane. WELL about halfway through the flight, my mom was standing up so I asked her to get my scriptures out of my backpack, so she gently moved the guys bag and pulled mine out. When she pulled mine out, something dripped out of the compartment and onto my dads arm. Then came the fish smell. I looked at that guy's bag and I could see something seeping into the fabric of his bag around the seams. I was so mad! My bag reeked of fish and so did everything in it! I was kinda being rude and loud saying stuff like "What the heck was in his bag!? This is disgusting?!" and I'm sure he could hear me because he was sitting behind my dad but there was no reaction on his face. He was just kinda looking around as if nothing was going on anywhere. Then, when it was time to get off the plane, my family and I all jumped up and got our bags really fast so we could be the first people off the plane. Well, this guy had a similar goal. He grabbed his fish bag and stood RIGHT next to us. All the while my mom is freaking out saying "Daniel! He's going to touch me with the fish bag! Don't Touch Me!" and then a drop of the fish water/oil/whatever-it-was dripped on my mom's foot! She is super sensitive to smells so this experience was like twice as bad for her as it was for everyone, so some of you can picture my mom saying "The fish water dripped on my foot!" she was almost in tears but laughing hysterically! It was horrible and my bag and I smelled like fish for the rest of the night. :/
