*-~Happy Birthday Olivia!~-*

Today is my older sister, Olivia's birthday!
Happy Birthday Libby! This is a picture of her 22 years ago today!


Olivia has been my role model my whole life! She is such a great example of how to be responsible and still live life!









She has helped me with so many things. The other day, I was looking through my very first journal ever. I got it before I could write for myself, so Olivia would sit down with me, read the questions and write down my answers for me. She has always been such a great pal and has taught me so many fun games and tricks. Most importantly, she has been able to put up with my irrational not-wanting-to-learn-new-things and has found ways to get around that. Olivia, remember that one time I didn't want to learn how to play a certain game, so you asked me if I wanted to play a game called Key. I agreed to learn that game and loved it, then it turned out to be the game I didn't want to learn.


She has taught me so much about life and still continues to give me pointers. I remember the night before my very first day of first grade. I was so excited but I was a little nervous because I didnt know how it was all going to work, like getting lunch. We were laying in bed and she was coaching me through lunch, telling me what milk to get, to not get Hawaiian haystack, etc.






She has always been so considerate of everything that is important to everyone. This is a picture of the day of my graduation. She flew up from Arizona to see me graduate because she knew it would be important to me. Really? Who does that? My lovely sister. That's who!













Happy birthday Olivia! I love you so much!

UPDATE: Not so good at it, School, Time consumers Etc.

So, I "decided" that i would start posting on my blog. I know i have said this before, but I will make a little more of an effort considering i check my families blogs a lot hoping they would add something, they're probably very displeased with my slackerness.

So here is my update. I am going to UVU even though i said i was going to be going to Dixie, so go Wolverines i guess? haha! I'm taking some random classes, but it's not so bad. I'm in a volleyball class that I LOVE! There are so many fun people in that class and I've actually made friends!On the other side of the spectrum of school, I spend a lot of time with this ugly little Devil (CLICK TO ENLARGE)

when the HECK will ANYONE EVER use this? EVER? if you can give me one example that doesn't involve further education or tricking your friends, you'll be my hero!
I have also been spending a lot of time with Mark. :) In case you haven't seen or talked to me in the past while, I like him, lots. Pretty sure all of my friends or anyone that would even glance at this blog, already knows that though. Oh well, thought I should mention it since he's pretty much the only person I'm not related to that I see lately.

Lately, I have been on an Anberlin kick. They help me get through my hours and HOURS of Mathematics that I have to do. This kick has been lasting a surprisingly long time though. They have a lot of REALLY good songs that I have looked over for years while only listening to the popular-ish songs like A Day Late, Paperthin Hymn, Time & Confusion, and Feel Good Drag. Songs of theirs that I now love are: Audrey Start the Revolution, The Unwinding Cable Car, Adelaide, Alexithymia, Hello Alone, and i absolutely LOVE their cover of There Is A Light That Never Goes Out - by The Smiths.
Thats All for now!

ALL GROWN UP!

So, I decided that since i have now graduated, I will start posting on my blog now that I might have a life and I am away from my family and will be away fro him home for college, so the people that I usually am with, won't know what is going on in my life. so I will blog about it! :)

GRADUATION
I bet most of you still can't believe that I am all done with high school! I am now alumni of Moutnain View High School!

After graduation, we had the Sen10r all nighter of course! It was great fun! I got hypnotized along with like 15-20 other students. It was funny to hear all the stories and gradually remember it all. It was pretty dream like, but the videos are priceless!


SENIOR TRIP!
I took my friends Kiersten Wennerholm and Heather Peterson down to the condo for the week. It was way fun! But my camera broke when i got hypnotized and heather forgot hers. So we don't have any pics of all 3 of us, but this picture is of Kiersten and me and all the boys that we met. They were staying in the building right across the street from my condo and so we hung out with them and took them on the red rock springs hike. Unfortunately,there was construction going on at that time, so they blocked the water so there was no running water. Plus, there was no where to park, so the kind lady in the pink, gave us all a ride up and back in her truck. What a saint!
