reunions, graduations, and ghost towns.

It's been 2 weeks since my last post, I fail at life. Or I guess I just fail at blogging. Aaaanywho I guess I'll just catch you up on the highlights from the last two weeks.

Last Sunday we had a Con Brizzle reunion. Con Brio, or Con Brizzle as I like to call it, is an a cappella choir I was in my senior year. There were only 12 members and we were all really close, I had missed them a lot and I'm so glad I got to see them. I'll post more details later when someone (*cough* Elizabeth Martin) sends me the pictures. Since I don't have those here's an old picture of some of us singing around the piano:



Monday, I hung out with Daniel, made cookies, and went to the park with Dominic.


I've been making cookies a lot lately, I'm not really sure why.

On Tuesday my friend Lionel got back into town and brought me a necklace and earrings that he had bought me while he was on his trip, SO sweet.


I don't think I mentioned it before but I LOVE skeleton keys. Seriously. I'm kiiind of obsessed with them.

Wednesday I hung out with Shayden. We went to Taco Bell (I looove Taco Bell), the mall, and then graduation to cheer for our friend Mary and his friend Cory.

We sat underneath the bleachers because we're rebels like that (oh and we might have shown up a little late too. oops. haha)


Instead of listening to the boring speeches we decided to do slow motion guns and voice overs and think up movies that we thought were awesome but nobody would ever go see because they're actually really lame, and not awesome.

We wrote on our chests, well, Shayden wrote on his back and his chest but yeah, so Mary and Cory would know how much we love them.




Mary is so freakin' adorable. I love her, and her baby.


I didn't get a picture of the writing on my chest because I forgot so you'll just have to pretend you can actually see it in this picture.


No, you don't have to adjust your monitor and you are not drunk...well actually I don't know, you might be. But that's not why the picture looks like this, it's just the blurriest picture EVER because my camera hates me and stuff. I wrote "I love M.S." on my chest and by the end of the night it looked like it said "I love me" I was pretty sad.


After graduation me and Shayden got drinks and went to the park to run through the sprinklers and set things on fire.




No, Shayden isn't drunk or high, the flash was just crazy bright.

Then I went out to Gilbert for a while, came home, and slept.

Thursday, I hung out with Daniel. Since I didn't take any pictures of us this week here's a picture of us at Disneyland:

He's SO freakin' cute. :]

Later that night I went over to Josh's house and played rock band. The guys had strobe lights and a fog machine. It was pretty epic.

Friday, I went to a bbq at Daniel's house and watched Tommy Boy and the Suns game with the boys (and Summer). I don't really remember what I did later that night but I know I did something. I'm pretty sure I played rockband again?

Saturday, I did fun stuff.

Sunday night I hung out with Curt and Megan. We went to Goldfield ghost town which is pretty boring during the day but terrifying at night. I wanted to take pictures but we were all freaking out so we hurried out of there pretty fast. After we left the ghost town we drove around the desert and Curt decided it would be fun to try and scare us and pretend that his car wouldn't start. It was good times. Except not.

We decided we wanted to go somewhere where we could sit and talk to we headed over to In and Out where we spent an hour trying to figure out if these guys inside that kept staring at us were checking out me and Megan...or Curt. It was hilarious, and we decided that they were just confused because they kept looking at all three of us. Then they left and we got bored so we drove around some more until we came across the coolest park I've ever seen in some random neighborhood. I wish I would have gotten a picture of the whole thing but I forgot so you'll just have to imagine it from the tiny bit you can see in this picture:


It was shaped like a CASTLE. It was pretty legit I'm not gonna lie. You had to "rock climb" to get up to the tower. We played for a bit and then laid in the tower to take some pictures. Remember that warning I gave you a couple posts ago about me and my friends taking hideous pictures? Well, I'm warning you again.


















Then we told scary stories until we got so scared that we had to leave.

Monday, my dad and brother left for Gilchrist so I hung out with my mom and Daniel. :]

and today is my sister's birthday. Happy Birthday Jennie!

I'm onto you Disney!

I'm pretty positive Disney uses their movies to brainwash little kids.

Excibit A:
Fish are friends



NOT FOOD


Okay okay I know that quote is from Finding Nemo but that's still Disney!

I hate seafood. Seriously, I can't eat it, it totally freaks me out and I'm preeeetty sure it's because I watched The Little Mermaid 135,642,983,837,136,948,246 times when I was little. Oh and I also get really sad when people kill deer and rabbits. Yet for some reason I'm totally okay when it comes to cows and pigs. Why? Well, Disney made Bambi, which made me love woodland creatures, but they never made one about killing farm animals (at least not one that I've seen.) I think Disney has something against them. They WANT us to eat them. That's why they convinced us not to eat fish and forest animals so farm animals are all we'd have left... Think about it.


Very sneaky Disney. Verrrrry Sneaky.



P.S. This is not an "I hate Disney" post. I'm actually obsessed with Disney, it's my fav. :] I'm just really weird and have really weird thoughts. okaybye! :]

For good.

The last few days have been wonderful. I've been sitting here watching Glee and eatin' Cup 'o noodles for the last 30 minutes, going through over 300 pictures trying to figure out which ones to post. (I told you I'm a picture freak). Here's what I've been up to:

Wednesday: sang in the finale at my old high school's last choir concert, went to Dairy Queen after (it's tradition. Although some lame kids decided to start a new tradition and go to Wendy's. We're no longer friends. Juuust kidding, but they're still lame.)After Dairy Queen me and some of my old friends (who I adore and have missed deeply) went to the park and took million pictures, I'll post some in a bit. then me and Ali went and played with Derek's animals. SO awesome. His pony looked like a unicorn, I love him. After that we went to Cory's, got locked in a trunk (seriously, i did), went home, ate and fell asleep watching That 70's show. It was good times.

Every year in the finale we sing "For Good", it's a song from the musical Wicked and has amazing lyrics. It's one of my favorite songs. Click here to listen to it.

Thursday: I'll write about it in the next post since I have a bunch of pictures from that day to put up and there will already be too many in here.

Friday: went to see "Letters to Juliet" with my mom (really good movie), ate pizza, went to Main St. to see some art, came home, baked cookies, and now I'm bloggin'. I guess it's techincally Saturday now.

Saturday: Blogged. Nooow on to the pictures!

Beware! Me and my friends like to make really unattractive faces which can lead to pretty terrifying photos. You have been warned.


Rockin' out to The Backstreet boys.
















Mary is probably going to murder me for this but I just love it so much! haha, I told you we take horrifying pictures.



Me and Ali take jumping pictures allll the time so of course we had to do some that night.

We got this one on the first shot.


We tried to take more with Mary and FAILED.
























The flash was a liiittle bit on the bright side.






I told you she put me in the trunk.

Hey! You made it through all the pictures! Yay you. :] I'll post Thursdays pictures soooon. I know, you're really excited. :P kbye! :]
