My Saturday Night




So, these people and I went to go see Jimmy Eat World playing the whole Clarity cd amazingness on Saturday night. And it was amazing. However, everyone in this picture, except the random boy and the Lamanite (Julia) in the background, were way too distracted during said concert.

What were we distracted by???

By making fun of the air-clapping, air guitar-chord-making, convulsion-having, hand-butterfly making group that surrounded us. I compare it to how those religious revivals are on tv. But better live and way more emotional. It was awesome for us, but bordering on orgasmic for most of the people around us, mostly being boys. Yikes.

p.s. Amy, I don't know why you keep getting cut off when I post this picture. If you click on it, you can see everyone. ?

My Achievement

So, yesterday at work,I worked for 9 hours. And I achieved my greatest feat yet. I finished one of these bags of heaven during my shift:

Yes. From start to finish. There were many witnesses. And I didn't get a headache/want to throw up/go into a diabetic coma. Yes! Yes! My teeth, however, now look like this:
Melissa, beware!
p.s. I found this picture in my microbiology power points and it was so disgusting I had to incorporate it. Bad book to read while eating? Microbiology.

My Oscar

So I wish a little Oscar would pop out of my microbiology book and explain things like aerobic respiration and cell metabolism to me like he explains things to Michael...

Dear Martha


Dear Martha -

Okay, don't get me wrong. I love you. Your halloween magazine makes my halloween magical. This recipe did change my life. But yields 2 dozen cookies? Isn't that like a serving size? And after Annie and I (she stayed home sick from school) have eaten half the dough while watching Another Cinderella Story, there isn't much left to bake. And quadrupling the recipe hurts my brain. Fix this. Amen.

-Emily

p.s. Maybe we should feed our army of cats more?

p.p.s. Dad, we said we wanted the BIG bag of powdered sugar. Gosh.

My turn! My turn!

For the non-facebook crowd


Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.

1. I have a secret crush on Mike Rowe from Dirty Jobs.
2. The best/most fun job I ever had was working as a phlebotomist at Bio-Medics in Provo, Utah.

4. I have been as far away as Italy and Austria but I have never been to Mexico or Colorado.
5. I am so afraid of scorpions that I will never take my shoes off in my house. Get out of bed, put on shoes. Get out of shower, put on shoes, etc. Not kidding.
6. I spell really well and have little tolerance for people who cannot. Their/there, were/where, your/you're. Stop it.
7. The compass on the mirror in my car has saved me many times from driving in the wrong direction.
8. I have attended the Sundance Film Festival twice and never saw anyone famous. But I love going.
9. My most favorite movie is Just Friends. Teee jaaaaay!
10. I am afraid to pull through parking spots because I always think there is a cement thing secretly hiding there.
11. My mom passed away 1 1/2 years ago and I think that she wrote a letter to me before she died and hid it somewhere in the house. I am always looking for it.
12. I hate when people don't blow their nose and just snuff their snot.
13. Sometimes I want to ditch the whole nursing thing and become a flight attendant. I think it would be awesome.
14. I always think before I speak.
15. I hate being hot and sweaty. Hate it.
16. My itunes holds 24 days of music.
17. I feel like I am becoming technology illiterate.
18. I love to read! I am obsessed with the library and Barnes & Noble.

21. My best friends are my sisters.
22. I have been on the Beatles Magical Mystery Tour.

My Weekend

So this weekend we went to the really pretty part of AZ aka Emery Cemetery. Just look at all that green!





I know! Who doesn't love Arizona? Annie was kind of ADD at the cemetery, so she discovered her skills in self-portraits.





No, we're not in mourning. We just all happen to like black. But you've got to love AZ clouds. I do.



Aren't pregnant people the cutest?



Then we had to eat at the best Mexican food place in the world. Seriously, how can chips and salsa get better? By loading the chips up with butter first! Divine!




The end

p.s. If anyone knows how to make our blogger put the actual picture on our post when we are writing it instead of doing this as;dlkjhqpwoituqwopitu(#%(*&%(*&w$%ASDAWEOI///...2q35298q234twafsglkwartoi

and then posting the actual picture, let us know!

My Shame

Dear MCC:

Thank you for not judging me today while I hid in the library for 2 hours and read this:





instead of this



I knew going to a community college would pay off somehow.

old, i apologize

Two dances since and I'm just now posting this. wow I'm lame.

WINTER FORMAL!

Welp i asked Kolter Anderson.

For our day activity our group:


It was super fun, we rode rhinos, shot guns, ate tasty food, and watched Dark Knight, it may or may not have been pirated.


Then the dance was a week later. We took pictures at the dance, went to my friend Kenzie Hamberlin's to take pictures and eat catered olive garden, then we went back to the dance, and then watched nacho libre at mi casa.

So this person has our camera and has had it for a while. Do you know how hard it is to update your blog without pictures?? But some things have happened lately we thought you should know.
We drew a similar picture of this for Annie before "it" happened. And then we found our new brother on facebook and sent him a message like this:

Dear Entertainment Industry:

Not to be all debbie downer, but you are kind of ticking me off. The last 5 things I have viewed/read have been crap. Seriously, I am ticked. The last 5 things:

This was a cross between Liar Liar and crap. And I really liked Liar Liar. Next:

Even Annie was bored. And she watched Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen twice in a row. And she had popcorn. Shame on you.

The third one:
Me=ticked off city after finishing this. Meh.

Stop judging me for reading an SF book. Her other book, The Thief Lord, was amazing. I couldn't even finish it.

And lastly:

Not even a box of Charleston Chews could help this movie. Lame-o.

In conclusion, I am going to have to start watching PBS and reading books of worth. Hmm.
