Life as I know it.
I love BYU. I'm really glad I decided to come here, and really sad that I didn't decide to until this semester. There are like zero ronchy people out here! It's really crazy! And great! And boys don't have long nasty hair or saggy pants either! However, they all look the same. (Blonde spiky hair, blue eyes, and 5 feet tall.) Everyone that is, except Tim. (If you don't already know who that is, I'm not going to tell you. haha)
A list of things I've done that make me very sociable:
1. Running with Jessica and Echo. Both from Hawaii, these girls are EXTREMELY fabulous and hilarious. Echo did wrestling her senior year of high school. Jessica is very very flexible. She's the first friend I made out here.
2. Going to the mall with Jessica and Dianne. I think Dianne is from Hawaii too. Shes one of the most fashionable people I've ever met and so it was extremely intimidating going shopping with her, even though none of us bought anything. She likes sushi. And she has an extremely attractive boyfriend.
3. Playing Just Dance 3 on the Wii with Whitney (my roommate) Paige (from the athens stake!) and Paige's roomie Amanda until 2 or 3 in the morning. The first sociable thing I did actually. SO MUCH FUNNNNNN.
4. Going to The Pizza Pie Cafe with Whitney, Paige, and their friend (and now my friend) Lindsay. I feel like Lindsay and I are a lot alike. AKA she's flippin amazing. She thinks I talk like Cari (the weirdo babysitter in the Incredibles) but SHE is definitely the Cari-voiced one. She can do like 12 man push ups. And she's really funny when she's tired. :)
5. Sometime this week Whitney, Augusta (my other roomie) and I are going to some yogurt place whitney really likes. I'm excited to get to know Augusta better!!! She's really nice, but we don't really know each other that well at all... I know she's been a convert for almost 3 years, her hair used to be realllllly long, and she has a boyfriend named spencer. And she's taking ice skating as one of her classes. but that's about it.
guys it's snowing outside right at this very instant. again. there's already like 3 inches of snow on the ground that's been there since saturday night. uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuug. BUT im pretty sure this means that me and whitney and paige are all going to go sledding, plus maybe some other people.
6. I go over to beck and ben's house like 8 days a week (ha. now that song is stuck in your head. :D mwahahahah) they are awesome. And pretty much everytime I go we all watch a movie because Ben wants to make me a cultured swine instead of an uncultured swine. My favorite one we've watched so far is probably... Oceans 11? Or maybe the proposal.
I think I'm gaining weight, despite walking almost a full mile to campus everyday. and despite the mile walk back from campus every day. And despite walking AROUND the gargantuan campus everyday, to get from class to class. AND despite the huge hill at the end of my walk every day. I just don't get it.
food: (this section is mostly for mom :D) I'm great in that area. I eat lots of soup and hamburger helper. And sandwiches, both turkey (with lettuce and mustard and cheese on whole wheat bread) and peanut butter. MILK ONLY COSTS 1.91 AT THE CREAMERY! It's great. I also eat ice cream, but only after supper.
I'm going to go play in the snow now. Heres some pictures of stuff here, taken at random places:
That picture^^^^^^^^^^^ makes me look like a smart college girl doing homework. Which I was definitely doing at the time.
"That's a good picture I wanna copy of that."^
Awwwwwwww. They're cute.
We're cute too.
And Trev dog is cute too.
I can't think of an ending. So... yeah. awkward

First days of Utah
Hullo! As you all know, I'm in Utah now!!! My first four days were spent with Michelle and Nate, who are very fantastic hosts. We partied it up! On New Years Eve, Nate's fam came over (his dad, mam, and sister Abbey) and we ate takeout Chinese ("which I never actually did before but kind of enjoyed") and played on the Waite's new Wii. It was especially fun to watch Grandpa play wipeout (it's just like the show). He was pretty terrible at it but it was HILARIOUS! We were ALL laughing our heads off and I almost wet my pants. Then they left and we started the movie Rango. Shell got tired and went to bed, and me and Nate stayed down to finish it. I fell asleep at 11:30 though, and Nate finished it all by his lonesome.
To make up for me and Shells lack of party attitude on NYE, New Years DAY was the real partay. After church we went over to Nate's bro Aaron's house to help Grandma watch the children (5 of them, the 6th was born that day)! We left and came home to play Ticket to Ride and Shell got really grumpy because she lost reeeeeeeally badly plus she was gassy. We drank Martenelli's (which we called "bubbly") out of wine glasses and I thought it was really gross so I only drank like 2 sips. Plus, I was kind of gassy too and I didn't want to become any bubblier than I already was. (Yeah, yeah, I know i told you guys I wasn't gassy. I lied.)
And, somewhere in there we saw temple square with all of it's lights. IT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL!!! And cold.
pictures!

| Addison at breakfast. This is one awesome kid. Oh, later we went to J Dawgs where they have massive hot dogs and Nate was trying to get him to take another bite, and he screamed, "BUT THEY TASTE LIKE TRASH!!!" Then, once he noticed me laughing my head off he screamed, "THEY TASTE LIKE GARBAGE!!!" hahahahahahaha |

| Bryn. She is also awesome, and has fabulous pink light-up princess cowgirl boots. |

DATES!!!!!
This is probably going to seem really boring to all of you... I just want to remember it. No pressure to read the whole thing.
Howdy folks. Sorry it's been a while since I last blogged, things have been super duper crazy around here lately. I just started packing stuff recently, and it seems like I haven't been home very much as of late. Mostly due to the fact that I've gone on 2 dates in the past week! Plus it was Spencer Giddens bday on the 23, and I was at his house pretty much all day playing basketball and riding scooters and playing on the Wii with a bunch of our church friends.
My date. Dates actually. One official and one... not so official. With Colin Henderson. First, a few friends of his went over to his house to party it up, and while we were both hiding in the woods during a rousing game of Sheep and Wolf (yes i know, my friends are awesome :D) he asked me to double with him. I said yes of course, because I've kinda had a slight crush on this boy since I was like 10 years old. We went to Crackerbarrel with 2 of our friends and then watched a movie. It was pretty fun, but the people we doubled with were kind of lame- one didn't eat anything at the restaurant and the other was pretty much asleep the whole time. The car ride home was the best part because they weren't there and Colin is one of the funniest people I've ever met. :)
Date number 2: Not really an official date, but definitely more fun than the first. Colin invited me to his house to go shootin'. It was so much fun!!! We shot 3 different kinds of guns. I don't remember what any of them were called, though. We played that game where someone throws the little skeet things and we had to shoot them. I ACTUALLY SHOT ONE!!! It was pretty far away, and I just pulled the trigger and hoped for the best. (Pretty much what I did every time.) That sucker shattered into a billion pieces. After that me and Colin walked around on the property with the smallest gun looking for squirrels, but we couldn't find any because the best time to find squirrels is in the morning. Then he had a brilliant idea: to go mountain biking all over his dirt bike trails. It sounded fun and pretty easy so I said ok. WORST IDEA EVER. It wouldn't have been so bad if I hadn't fallen off my bike so much. I completely wiped out, as in, was laying on my side on the ground, a total of 5 times. It was so embarrassing, because he kind of tripped like maybe once. The most embarrassing fall was when I drove into an invisible hole, fell sideways off my bike, and hit the bottom of my left ribs on a REALLY hard stump, or root. It knocked the wind right out of me, and when he came to ask me if I was okay, all I could do was make that weird robot groaning sound that you make when you lose your wind. And he was trying really hard not to laugh. He succeded for the most part.
After that, we went inside and decided to go play Frisbee Golf at Fort Yargo. He won by one point. We were both pretty bad, but it was super fun, and we only broke one frisbee. :)
THEN we went back to his house and he taught me how to play Halo. That is a fun game, and it really wasn't that hard either.
And that's all. Now that I think about it, I can't believe Colin still likes me after all that making a fool of myself. Today he invited me to come play paintball with his family, but I couldn't go because I was packing. :/ BUT HE JUST CALLED AND ASKED IF I WANTED TO COME AND PLAY GAMES AT HIS HOUSE!!! Seriously, like 5 minutes ago. :D I like that kid.
Sorry this ended up being so long...

Creeper!!!
Today, some man named Charles Charlow or something like that has called me 4 times. I do not know this man, at ALL. I've never heard his name before in my life. He's definitely southern, which makes me think he probably met me at Ingles. I have no idea how he got my number. Each time he's called he's given me his number and said, "If you get this message call me back please. I was just checkin to see how you's doin. See ya later, bye."
ITS REEEALLY FREAKIN ME OUT!
Me and mom decieded that next time we would just let dad answer and yell at the creepo. sickening.
The only guy I can think of who it maybe might possibly be is one creepy old man who followed me around ingles on one of my breaks and eventually asked me if I had a boyfriend. He used to come through my line every time he came to Ingles and he would wave at me and smile and all that. He was like 60 years old at least, with a bald head and a mustache. But I was kind of rude to him everytime he came through my line so I haven't seen him in months. He's the only extreme creep I've ever met though... I just don't know. Hopefully it's just some dope out there pulling a prank and I really don't have a legit stalker...
