Silver Mesa, you slay me.

Okay, so for this whole summer (and past) I have been working at a lovely recreation pool called Silver Mesa for the City of North Las Vegas, yee! It's been a lot of fun, especially since I work with a lot of awesome people. For example, my very good friends Sam and Lori and Teylor and so forth. I've made a lot of new good friends too, basically we're all just a big, happy family with some kids we wished weren't related to us. Anyways, I do have some pictures from it with some stories behind it recently so I'm going to share them.

This is from the spirit week we had, it was big hair day. I didn't even have to try! I just woke up and let my mufasa hair do it's thing.

Also, I think working at the pool as ruined my no caffeine thang I had going on. I was so good until this summer. Now I drink my diet coke everyday, and it's not good...Teylor and I have a fetish with it, and to be honest I don't want to give it up.


I have one of these beauts about once every other day.

Photoshoot with the drink, Teylor and I are a little proud.

Ahhh okay, so today at work, we had slide time for TWO HOURS. It was probably the best slide time I've ever had to be honest. Anyways, afterwards, before family swim, we layed out and well our dear friend Sal didn't think he was close enough to the sun, so he started stacking the chairs up. He started out with three on the bottom, and realized he could do much much more.


Lovely.

Even betta.

He succeeded at being a couple inches closer to the sun.

Goodbye Utah, hello work

This past trip to Utah was SO FUN. It truly made me excited for college and made me want to work hard to get up there. Anyways, a recap of what went down is in order. On tuesday, I went to Cafe Rio with Lori and Kayla, to meet up with Lori's sister and Cousin. It was delicious, as always. They were super fast when they made the food! I swear my quesadilla was in my hands right after I ordered it. Then after the rio we went back to the apartment, and I practiced my songs for my audition into the Music Program at UVU. I sang "There are worse things I could do" from Grease and "Anchor of my Soul" from the EFY songbook. I was able to use a piano at my sister's friends house, so that was a major plus. After that we painted our nails and played "Poophead" (a card game) so sO SO many times. It was fun. Then after that we met Cate up at Applebee's (she had to work all the day long) for Karaoke night. Unfortunately, everyone and their mama wanted to sing, and the wait was like an hour and a half long so no no, we did not do it. Then came wednesday, we woke up and went to McDonald's for breakfast, and then I went back to the apartment and kept on practicing. Then at 11:00, I had my audition. Cate came with me. It was truly nerve wrecking, but I have a good feeling about it. Utah Valley has a really nice campus, and Ms. Benish (the director) was a lot of fun. It made me even more excited to come up to Utah! I then said adios to Cate (she had work...AGAIN) and went back to the apartment, picked up Lori and Jessica, got frozen yogurt with Kayla, and hit the road again. Oh, so many stories from this ride home, but these pictures will explain parts of it...



The drive home...Utah is actually pretty during the summer.
Can you see the cute bugs having a party on my window?


Lori's feet on my dashboard

Okay, here is the story on this one. We made a pit stop in St. Geezy and Lori was craving water. Not just any water. Water from Starbucks. Apparently it's free and such so we went through the drive thru to get her it. As we pulled up the guy asked what I wanted and I told him and I also said "it's for my friend here..." then it took him FOREVER to get this cup of water. We started groaning and stuff and then pulled up to the window. He handed me the water and said," I heard you guys grunting and moaning." Awkward. The end.


i love roadtrips.

Oh promalama



I truly need to get better at this blogging thang, no more excuses. Anyways, this dear friends is a recap of my senior prom 2010. I finally got to go!! So exciting, especially since I will remember this prom, unlike last years....ask me about that mess later.

Props goes to Cate for the dress and my hair. She truly is talented and I love her. I also loved when people asked me where I got it from and I could answer, "well my sister lives in London and totally got it for me, so yeah..."

Prom was so fun! We started out at like 6:00 and met at the Marriott for pictures, and to settle into the hotel room. After that we took some pictures, then went to the Kona Grill for dinner. That place is SO GOOD. I literally died from being so happy. After we went to Rainbow Gardens for the dance...it was totally in the ghetto, but hey as long as it looks good, I do not mind. After that the dance we all went back to the hotel room to get the party started....except me. I changed and my best friend Sam and some friends came and picked me up because I did not want to be friends with Jack Daniels. We went to U-Swirl, which is best, and then I went home. All in all it was a grand prom.




We're extremely awkward. I love it.
The gorgeous Mary and I.
Mary and Seal!
Duck face.
They call this the "mormon pose". It's because we're perfect, obvi.
The ladies!



The whole group...yes I am the only white gurrrrl.


I LOVE PROM!
