You can call me a 'Playa'.............

But I think it is entirely appropriate for a 21 year old to have a long list of boyfriends. (Maybe one day I will post my entire list on here.) Enter Channing Tatum. He was in Step Up and She's the Man, and he's just really rediculously good looking. Plus, he has the sexiest voice. A nice, slow southern draw. Wow.

On another note, I think I shall start recommending a "Song of the Day." A song that I have been listening to, and that I think ya'll should check out.
Today's song is No One, by Alicia Keys.
So look at this nice picture and listen to this song, it might help you in becoming more luxury.

Check it Out

So my friend Stephen has a new song. Ya'll should listen to it, it's really good, and sad.

He put out an album over in Asia a few years ago and it was very good as well. He is a luxury singer.

Drunken Texting

I must start this post by saying that I was not, nor have I ever been drunk. But, you know when you get those late night texts and you wake up like "Where am I?" Well, this seems to happen to me quite a bit. The sleeping habits of young people without familial responsibilities are random at best. I try to get to bed by 11 most nights, but there are many nights when I'm up till 2 or 3 doing who knows what, usually studying. So, when I'm up late, I sometimes like to see if other people are up. I'll just send the "Hey dude" text. And at least 1 person will be up and willing to talk to me in the middle of the night. I feel guilty about texting people in the middle of the night, on the off chance that they might be asleep.

I'm usually pretty good about putting my phone on silent when I go to sleep, but sometimes I forget. And then, there are other times when I'm completely asleep and I'll wake up and check my phone. I did this last night. I went to bed pretty early, at like 10. Around 11 I woke up and saw that I had 1 new message. I opened it and it was from my friend Elayna (HI!) telling me about a date she'd been on. I was all excited for her, and I tried to call her, but in my sleepiness I couldn't figure out how to use the phone. I think I sent her a message back telling her to call me tomorrow, but this morning when I woke up all of my outbox messages were deleted. Interesting.

So, the point of this long, boring post is just for me to say that if you contact me during the night, who knows what will happen. I've had friends call at like 4 in the morning and I've had entire conversations that I couldn't remember the next day. I've heard that texting while drunk is a bad idea, I would like to add that texting while sleeping is also detrimental.

On another side note, I found this cool website online for a local magazine for college students. http://schooledmagazine.com/magazine.php
It has a bunch of fun stuff to read, so all of my college buddies should check it out.

Ok, I know I'm random, but that's why ya'll love me. I really want to go to Hawaii again. I want to go like tomorrow.

And, I have been listening to a lot of John Mayer lately. He's pretty amazing, and when he sings live it looks like he is making out with his microphone, slightly innapropriate yet funny.
Ciao ya'll.

Mostly/All "A" Answers -- Girl/Guy Next Door:Wholesome as apple pie, you're the one that parents admire and suitors dream about! Your quintessential love matches include Woody ("Toy Story"), Troy ("High School Musical"), Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Gabrielle ("High School Musical"), and Belle ("Beauty and the Beast"). True love is waiting... you just need to get out and find it!

Mostly/All "B" Answers -- Prince or Princess:For you, it's all about the fairy-tale romance! You thrill to the classic Princes and Princesses who have always represented Disney romance, and would happily move into your true love's castle, given the chance. You could find true love with the likes of Princes Edward, Eric, or Philip, or Princesses Cinderella, Aurora, or Giselle. Just remember it's not the size of the castle or the bank account, but the size of the heart, that is the mark of the true prince or princess.

Mostly/All "C" Answers -- The Rascal with a Heart of Gold:You'll never lack for excitement in your life -- you are either smitten with lovable rogues ... or are one yourself! We're not talking BAD guys here, but your romantic type frequently finds itself in hot water. We're betting a woman like you will swoon for the likes of Captain Jack Sparrow ("Pirates of the Caribbean"), Tramp ("Lady and the Tramp"), and the Beast/Prince ("Beauty and the Beast"). If you're a man, your perfect partner would need the spunk of Jessie ("Toy Story 2"), Mulan, or Nala ("The Lion King") to steal your heart -- and keep up with you.

Mostly/All "D" Answers -- High Maintenance: The good news is that you appreciate all the finer things in life and expect nothing less than the best. The not-so-great news? Some would consider you high maintenance -- or at the least hard to please. Looks like you'd get along just peachy with Joe Kingman ("The Game Plan"), Lighting McQueen ("Cars"), Kuzco ("The Emperor's New Groove"), Colette (Disney*Pixar's "Ratatouille"), Princess Jasmine ("Aladdin"), or Sharpay ("High School Musical"). Good luck, 'cause you're gonna need it!

Mostly/All "E" Answers -- Full-on Villain:You're drawn to trouble like flies on wet pizza! Not to worry though, you'll find plenty of romantic drama with Davy Jones ("Pirates of the Caribbean"), Gaston ("Beauty and the Beast"), Jafar ("Aladdin"), Queen Narissa ("Enchanted"), Maleficent ("Sleeping Beauty"), or even Ursula ("The Little Mermaid"). Or you may want to rethink staying single this Valentine's Day. Either way, spread the love and try not to hurt anybody!

I promise I study.........

Ok, so it may seem as though all I've done this week is watch movies, but I have in fact also watched a Jazz game and done some serious studying. But, I would like to recommend this movie to ya'll. It is a littlte 'artistic' but the music is fantastic, it's all The Beatles. So if you find yourself witht nothing to do this weekend, you should watch it.

I will be watching the NBA all-star festivities. Even though I think it's a bunch of crap cause Deron didn't get picked to play. Also, if they had a "Hottest Player" vote Kyle would definitely win.

The Guide to Being Luxury

My bathroom floor is being redone. That is rather luxury. I will post pics when it's all finished.

Awesomely bad 70's music is luxury. i.e. Barry Manilow, Copacabana. And Donny Osmond recently recorded an album of 70's love songs. I must admit, it's pretty good!

I love Bath & Body Works Wallflowers. They fill your room with luxurious fragrence. I only use Sweet Pea, but there are many different ones available.

That is all that is luxury for today. Besides me being luxury, but that's nothing new.

The Jane Austen Book Club

I just finished watching this movie, and it was absolutely adorable. It is definitely very luxury. I would highly recommend that you watch it.
And, I have fallen in love with Marc Blucas, he is very good looking. He was in First Daughter with Katie Holmes a few years ago, and I thought he was cute then. It turns out that he used to be a basketball player. And I think that after watching this movie you will fall in love with him too. So for now on, when I refer to my actor boyfriend, it's Marc. Kyle is still my athlete boyfriend.

Zero Tolerance Friday

Pedro and I cruising in the Porsche, not tolerating anything.

First off I must thank Peter for introducing me to this wonderful concept. Zero Tolerance Friday (ZTF), is all about not letting anyone or anything ruin your Friday and potentially your weekend. In honor of ZTF I didn't go my community health class today because I can't tolerate the teacher. I also didn't tolerate Jacqueline being a b-rat. I also will not tolerate a loss from the Jazz tonight. They've won 10 in a row, and I fully anticipate that streak to continue tonight.

And Peter, please be more careful when walking in the future. Jacqueline would no longer have someone to worry about her all of the time, and I wouldn't have anyone to share my quasi-love of mormon movies with. I will not tolerate you being hit by a car!!!! Haha.

I had a giant Biochem test this week, but all that is past, and I fully anticiapte having a good weekend. I hope you all do the same.

Disconnected

I'm offically over reading and writing about plants. I want to be a freaking dentist, not a botanist. But, I'll suck it up and keep going. I have a Biochemistry test to take before thursday. That should be rather interesting, considering I haven't studied for it. haha.
I need a mental break. Unfortunately, that won't come until June when I graduate. I'll be done with my bachelor's and then it's just 6 more years of school till I'll be an orthodontist. Not that long, right??
So, I will go will make it through this week, though I may not remember all of it. There are days when I feel like a walking zombie, going through the motions but not connecting with anything. It might have something to do with taking an insane amount of upper division credits.....
The good news is that the Jazz are on a 9-game winning streak. They always keep my interest peaked.
I'm excited for Saturday cause I get to volunteer at a free dental clinic. It should be a lot of fun, and hopefully I'll learn a lot. When I'm a dentist I want to be able to go to 3rd world countries and provide dental care. I would especially love to be ablto to help kids with cleft palates.
I have many ideas flowing for amazing blogs,but they will just have to wait until I have more than 5 minutes to write.
I'm gonna study now..... fun!!!!!

Oh What a Great Way to Start your Morning

The Jazz dominated in Memphis, and my boy Kyle was perfect from the field. This is what he had to say after the game.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=Y9FwjsIOnoU
But, really, do you think I heard any of it?? Haha.

Half Way 'Round the World

So, I'm pretty sure I don't know any people in Italy or Africa at the moment. So it was a little surprising to see those two places pop up on my site counter. So, I'm thinking I'm gonna make my blog private. Please email me so that I can add you as a friend. And even if I don't know you personally, if you're a friend of a friend or whatnot, email me too. I love that people read my blog, but I would prefer being able to control it from the ENTIRE world.
Thanks ya'll.

My Boyfriend is Hot (on and off the court)

Ok, I don't mean to bore you with 2 blogs within the space of 10 minutes, but who knows when I'll have the chance to blog again. Life is nothing less than CRAZY this semester. I have a few free minutes right now, so I will share some of my thoughts.

-I got the high score on my microbiology test. This is pretty luxury because it was a very hard/tricky test. I felt very proud of myself.

-I'm digging the new OneRepulic song "Stop and Stare." It's very good, ya'll should check it out.

-The Jazz have reclaimed the top spot in the Northwest division. Kyle helped win last nights game against Houston with 2 3-pointers with a few minutes to go. And then tonight he made an amazing 3-pointer in the last minute of the game to put the Spurs away for good. I work tomorrow, up in SLC, I wonder where the Jazz boys hang out?? Haha. JK. But, I'm planning on going to the game against Golden State on the 19th. That should be a good game, mainly because Baron Davis is a pretty amazing player. I wonder what it would take to trade him to our team?

-The weather in Utah is officially unluxury. We basically had a white out today. My poor Aunt Sara was involved in a massive pile-up, but escaped but was pretty beaten up. Her car was totalled. I'm a little nervous about driving to SLC in the morning.

-I still love Kyle Korver. I just thought I would put that in for good measure.

-I have a lucky Jazz sweatshirt, and whenever I wear it the Jazz win.

-I think that I'm going to finish writing my paper on the communication of plants using the underground information superhighway. Rather unluxury, yet still interesting. If I ever need to perform dental procedures on plants, I'll definitely know how they communicate. Yah. Good night.

Stand A Little Taller

As most of you know our beloved Prophet, President Gordon B. Hinckley passed away yesterday. He was such a wonderful example and such an inspiration. He is the prophet that I have grown up with, and it will be a little weird not to have him helping to encourage us on. President Hinckley always inspired the youth of the church to try to be a little better everyday. I found this great link with a few highlights of his life and talks:

http://photo.byu.edu/video.php?cat1=Slide%20Shows&cat2=General&cat3=2008&cat4=Hinckley%20Tribute

And from it I pulled these little phrases which help to remind me of the wonderful spirit of our reveered prophet:

"Mediocrity will never do. You are capable of something better, give it your very best, you will never again have such an opportunity."

"Stand a little taller, rise a little higher, be a little better."

I will miss President Hinckley, but I know that the sweet reunion between him and Sister Hinckley must have been truly amazing.

I'm Not Blonde.....I Promise

Ok, so everyone has those times when they say things without thinking about them, or do really stupid things. Unfortunately some of us have this happen more than others. I had one such moment today, and it caused me to think back on some of the other "Blonde" moments I've had in my life. Here is a brief account.

-A couple of years ago we went to Hawaii in the middle of January, so when we flew back to SLC there was of course snow. My dad, being the very caring father that he is, parked the car in the parking garage so we wouldn't have to go through the hassle of getting on and off the buses. So, we walk into the garage and there are a bunch of cars with snow on them. So I say, "How did these cars get snow on them if they're inside??" DUH. Everyone had a good laugh at my expense.

-I get really confused whenever my dad tries to explain professional sports to me. I like to watch, but I really don't care if I understand.

-Whenever anyone tries to explain to me how to drive a manual transmission car, I get utterly confused and ask why you wouldn't just drive an automatic in the first place.

-To start I don't find this one particularly funny. But, one night I was playing this game with my friends, where you write down names of people and then you have to go around and try to get people to guess them. So, the name on the paper was Peewie Herman, and the clue was that he lived in a cartoon house on t.v. I blurted out Blue's Clue's and everyone immediately started laughing for like 5 minutes. To this day I don't even understand what was so funny. I guess it has to do with the fact that they're all like 5 years older than me, and I remind them of that often.

-So, ya know the song Feel Good Inc. by the Gorillaz? Well, there is a part at the beginning of the song, and I always sing it as "Shucka, Shucka" but one day while Jac and I were driving and I was singing along she said that wasn't right. Listen to the song, and I think you'll agree with me.

-One time my friend Stef and I were going to the movies. I pulled out my card to pay and put it through the machine. It didn't work and the lady told me to do it again. It kept saying there was an error reading the card, so the lady tried to do it on another machine, but it still wouldn't work. I KNEW there was money on it, so I was just like what the?? Finally I take a look at my card and realize it's my ATM card and not my debit card. Man did I feel stupid.

Ok, so I promise I'm not stupid!!! Really. I did very well on my microbiology test today, which was very hard. Sometimes I just think that I concentrate so hard on school, that when I'm not studying I let my mind relax a little too much. Oh well. It provides for a lot of good comic relief.

What an amazing guy

As if I really need another reason to love Kyle Korver.

Isn't he just amazing?!?

The Guide To Being Luxury

This is a how to guide to living a "Luxury Life." (It is meant for entertainment purposes only, and should be taken with a grain of salt. Hahahaha.) Only 95% of this is based on my actual life.

You must only shop at luxury stores.

*Target - select items only.

You must have these luxury products in your purse at all times. Evian water bottle (do not refill with tap water).
Trident Cool Colada gum
Mac lipgloss, pink only. (Don't let Camille steal it).

You must have luxury gadgets. HP Laptop

Ipod Nano Razr phone (only pink).

You must listen to luxury music. Gwen Stefani
Michael Buble
The Spice Girls

You must have luxury celebrity crushes. The athlete, Kyle Korver.
The actor, Orlando Bloom.
The musician, Chris Carrabba.

You must only use Bath and Body Works Sweet Pea bath products. Conditioner
Shampoo
Body Cream

You must only have Dooney & Bourke handbags and accessories. Luggage
Watches, "bling"
Purse

You must only wear perfume with pink packaging. Envy Me
Lili Bermuda
Pink Sugar

You must only drive luxury vehicles, and they must be black.

BMW
Cadillac
Porsche

You must only stay at hotels with the word "grand" in the title.

Grand America
Grand Californian
Grand Wailea

You must only use luxury phrases, such as:

-"Hey, Ya'll!"

-"How unluxury."

-"Awkward."

Most importantly, you must believe in yourself and have the mindset that you are luxury.

A Must See

I am usually not one to endorse going out and seeing R rated movies, but I highly recommend this one. Yes, it's bloody, but the blood looks very fake. It's a little gorry, but overall I think it is in a satiric manor. Plus, the soundtrack and acting are AMAZING. I've always thought Johnny Depp was genious, but this film puts him over the top. He acts, talks and sings in a British accent. So, go watch this movie. I'm sure you won't be dissappointed (you may not want to eat right beforehand!!).

Playing Catch Up

So, I've totally been a blog slacker the past little while. I will try to remedy this by catching up on all the goings-on in the past 2 weeks.

The week after Christmas, Chrissi, Don, Pete, and the kiddos came up to visit us. Apparantly, Gabby taught Haydan how to play her favorite game, ANTM (America's Next Top Model).:

We had lots of fun with them here. We went up to Soldier Hollow to go sledding, went to the Train restaurant in Heber (Grandpa's favorite) and did lots of shopping and playing. Chrissi also bought lots of clothes, most of which I already own. So, we could probably dress like twins for a week. (By the way Chrissi, I wore the dress today that we got like red and black, and it is very cute.)

Peter and I had planned on going skiing/snowboarding on friday after going sledding. Apparently my sister's were not to keen on this idea and complained that they were intentionally uninvited. This was definitely not the case. We just wanted to go and we didn't think it was that big of a deal. We ended up going with Don (who picked snowboarding right up after 10 years, way to go) and the Awkward. For the rest of the trip, Peter and I made sure to invite the girls EVERYWHERE we went, just to prove a point!

On saturday, Peter and I went up to my work Christmas party at the Little America. It was nice, but just not as luxury as the Grand America. Oh well. Peter also drove me past the Delta Center so that I could see the giant poster of D. Will hanging on the side of the building. That was highyly luxury. Thanks, Pete.

And then our luxury cousins had to go home. But, we are excited to go see them sometime soon.

And then, I started my final semester of school. I'm takng some killer classes this semester, so don't be surprised if this blog doesn't get updated all that often.

Last weekend I went to the Jazz game with my friends Stef, Rob, and Tyler. It was a lot of fun and luckily the Jazz won.

I decided that when I am a rich orthodontist, I will buy season tickets to the basketball team (which will not be Utah). Hopefully it'll be the Lakers.


So anyway, that is just a quick run down of things. I need to download the pics from my b-day and from the luxury Jazz game I attended last night. Look for that soon.

My New Boyfriend

Say hello to the newest Jazz member, Kyle Korver. Not only is he incrediby good looking, he happens to play very well. Kyle is an amazing free-throw shooter, and is hot behind the arc. We already have a date for tomorrow night. I'm so excited!!
