dun dun dun.....

-So this week has been a little thrown off with my new workout. I'm supose to be doing my weight and HIIT on M-W-F and cardio on Tu-Th. It's been backwards this week, however last night when I was supose to do weights I didn't get a chance to.(boy did I hear it from Kait.) I had tons of things come up. I still got really active last night, I just didn't get to the gym. Ugh. I wish I could work out while I'm at work on my lunch break but I can't. I literally don't have enough time. By the time I got there, changed and got situated(hoping there was a treadmill for me) I'd have 15 mins max in there before I'd have to leave, change and get back to my office. So I have to go after work. Which I L.O.V.E. BUT with that sometimes things come up. I needed to meet with Bree and the other bridesmaids to check patterns and get the fabric. I had a meeting with my Stake President last night for my Temple Rec. I didn't get home til midnight. I could have went then, but I needed sleep. Tonight I'll be back on my M-W-F routine. I'll lift tonight. Scouts honor( I know that means nothing cause I'm not a scout, but pretend I am)

- Mandy and Marinda are leaving for the weekend to go snowboarding. I really wished I still loved snowboarding but I don't. Sad huh? I wish I was with them.

- I have the gym tonight, and then no plans. I might go see Valentines day alone.


- Tomorrow I was hoping to see Kait and Rbot(I'm trying to find a nick that sticks with that kid) but I forgot about Jess' bridal shower, and Helaena's wedding reception and I'm just going to be super pressed for time :( Hopefully soon tho.

- I REALLY REALLY REALLY wish my hair would grow.

- I need nail strengthener. My nails BEND they are sooo brittle. I broke 3 today. It hurt like the dickens.

- I saw my dress pattern and material from Bree's wedding last night. Amazing. I'm excited. I'll look hott. :)

- Work is uber stressful right now.

- I finally got my T4 today. Lets hope the Canadian Gov't will be paying for my vacations again this year, like they did last year. So generous. Ha!

- I wish I was a millionaire.

- I wish I wasn't such a girl with my credit card. It's always maxed. I'm workin' on it tho.

- I really just need a break right now. I want to do nothing, but when I do nothing I feel like I'm missing the party. It's friday, do you think I should be in for good at 7:30 when I get home from the gym? We'll see what's going on tonight.

- I'm sleepy.

- I need to go tanning.


What are your plans for the weekend?

Lunch with Trish and Sarah

One thing that keeps me sane at work is the fact that I have two way good friends. Trish and Sarah.


Trish and I met at school, and we became instafriends when we found out that our parents knew each other(She grew up in Nelson, my dad is from Nelson, I spent alot of time growing up in Nelson) Her and I always have so much fun, I heart her! she's awesome! Our parents use to hang out together, and my nana and her grandma lived down the street from each other. Our cousins dated. It's just too funny that in a city of a bazillion we met.

Sarah started working here in November. We started hanging out cause she was on the same break schedule as Trish and I. She has the same sense of humor that we do. So we instantly liked her. She's from BC too.

Anyways, we always fill each other in on our lives at lunch, and tell stories, and just laugh. Most people who are around up during our breaks think we're 5 years old. It's awesome tho, cause we seriously just laugh all the time. We hang out, outside of work and we always have so much fun.

We were having lunch together today, and we were talking about relationships, and about different things pertaining to relationships. So most of you know I don't really blog about dating on here, one reason is I have a first date curse. I don't usually get past a first date. Sometimes it's cause I'm not interested, or cause they're not interested. Who really wants to hear about that?, but I only usually blog about dates that have gone wrong. They're funny and make for good posts. Anyways, we were talking about the types of daters we are. After much 'bashing' on their part I've realized that I'm a pretty close minded person when it comes to people I like/date. Here is the low down on Lachele as seen by Trish/Sarah.

-I am a close minded dater. I don't give people chances.(TRUE) I will NOT go on a date with someone if I don't know them. It creates unneeded worrying (ie: what are they thinking, I need to be on my BEST behavior, I don't want him to pay, etc) If I meet someone, hang out with them a few times then go on a date with them, that's different we already have established some sort of relationship. But if we're starting from scratch it's just too annoying, I'd rather just hang out in a judgemental free environment, AND if I've hung out with the person and I'm not really diggin it, I won't go on an actual date with them. It's a waste of my time, and a waste of theirs.

-I don't like the excuse "well atleast it's a free dinner" I work, I can buy my own dinner thank you very MUCH.

-I usually am only interested in one person at a time. I've always been like this. I'm not a serial dater, and I never will be. I think I'm too picky to be a serial dater.

-Dating people I'm not interested in is just a BIG headache.

-I'm not really looking for anything serious right now.

-I've never had my heart broke. I've had my pride hurt BIG time so it's made me more cautious. I'm not too sure why.

-Dating is a big pain in the rear, lots of people say it's a nice way to get to know someone. I do NOT agree. I think it's stupid :)--I am not bitter whatsoever. I just think there are better ways of getting to know someone.

-I think a date is the WORST way to see a persons 'true' colors. I'm always on my VERY best behavior. I say alot of things I'm sure that they'd like to hear so they get a good impression of me. I'd like someone to see me when I'm playing sports, or when I'm just being goofy and think it's cute AND thats WHY they want to go out with me.

-Yes, I eventually get married, and YES, I realize that if I keep up with this mentality that I will be the last person on the face of the earth married.

-I'm pretty good at keeping my emotions out of the situation, and when I feel like they're getting too involved I always create some sort of drama to back away ie:arguing, bickering, ignoring. I don't need to like someone, only to have them reject me. That's no fun. Like I said I've had my pride hurt before. I've learned my lesson. I was talking to my friend about this the other day. She said "sometimes people put up walls, not to keep people out. But to see who cares enough to break them down." True. Maybe that's what I'm doing. If I know that a guy is interested in me, it's really easy for me to say yay or nay, I'm not the one who is going to get butthurt this way.

-I like to think that this is the safe way to play, but it's also pretty risky. I've been told on several occasions(last night being most recent) that IF you don't risk it, you might miss it. Ha. Well good thing I believe that there is more than one person out there for me. I might have already missed it, but I'm only 24 and so I'm pretty sure I have lots of time.


This sounds pretty sad huh? But really it's not. I've been making ALOT of girl friends lately. It's just what I need right now. I don't need a boyfriend. I don't need as many guy friends either anymore. They're sooo transient at this stage in life. They get serious gfs/wives and ditch their girlfriends, which is the way it should be, so I've gone thru a number of guy friends. Atleast I can keep my girl friends when they get married :) As we can tell I don't really have time/can handle one right now. I know that I need to change some of the ways I go about dating. Sarah said I need to ease up on the close minded business. I agree. I will try.

Goal #1. I will make more of an effort to not be so close minded. I still would like to know the person before I go out with them. Then there aren't as many awkward silences. :)

Goal #2. To give people a chance. Just because I'm not interested in them RIGHT then, I might be once I get to know them(hopefully in a casual setting)


Hmmm, I've decided two goals is good enough. I'm curious to hear your takes on the way I date/handle guys/relationships. What works for you guys? Comment away PLEASE!

ha..ha...ha.....

-I had a good workout last night. The best workouts are the ones that don't even feel like workouts.

-I schooled like 4 boys last night in a game of basketball at FHE. R.E.S.P.E.C.T ha ha

-They convinced me to get a 'gold card' at fabutan cause I tan SO much. Why didn't I think of this sooner? 15% off all product, unlimited tanning all for 31 bones a month. I know that tanning isn't THAT good for me. But I like it, and I look cute tan. My mom made me do it.

-I need new running shoes. Mine are getting old, and it's probably the reason my hips/shins kill

-I'm hoping I get a HUGE fat check from the gov't in April

-I wish my hair would grow. Biotin here I come.

-I wish I had bigger eyes. I have tiny eyes. *atleast they're a hott blue*

-I realized I don't actually care about the Olympics. Luke updates me on the medal count cause he knows I won't have the foggiest idea if he didn't

-Since when did 'figure skating' become 'Ice dancing' HA.

-Boys in Calg's s.u.c.k

-I love Velv-grasshead.

New Workout Program-Courtesy of Kait

So, I have gotten a new and improved workout Courtesy of Kait.

I heart her. I always have. Always will.

She's the BEST big sistah ever.

She loves me, even loved me when I was a bratty 16 year old.

She's helping me accomplish alot of things right now. She's pushing me. She's checking in on me like nobodies business-- "have you been eating every two hours" "did you weigh yourself, don't forget to take your measurements" "You're doing fantastic, I am so excited for you"

She's gone above and beyond what anyone should do for someone else, and I am extremely grateful.

We worked out together Saturday. It was an awesome bonding time for us. HIIT(high intensity interval training) Killed me. It scares me. I am excited to see results soon. She's been doing this simliar workout for the past 10-12 weeks and has seen amazing results(she looks HAWT) seriously. I can't wait to look like her. She lost 35lbs from Sept-Dec. HOLY COW. She's a rockstar. I can't get over how awesome she is. She's starting a fitness blog/website. I'll be sure to direct you there when I know more of the deets. Get on that Kait.

Her and I haven't always been close- Our family is a little random (I know everyone says that, but I think ours is pretty random) I'm really glad this is something her and I can share.


Let me give you a little rundown of how she's been kicking my trash! :) I'm really excited this is exactly the revamp I was looking for.

Cardio
HIIT(High intensity interval training)-- I swear I will learn to love it-I will try to stop being scared of it.

**as you feel more comfortable with your HIIT, you need to switch it up, increase your incline/speed**

1 min warm up 4.0(speed) with a 1% incline
2 mins jog 5.5.(sp) with a 1% incline
1 min sprint 7(sp) with a 1% incline

*repeat 2 more times. (15 minutes)

5 min Cool down 2.5(sp) with a 5-9% incline

By adding the incline you'll be taking a 40 min cardio session and turning it into 20mins. I burned almost as many cals in this 20 minutes as I do in a 45 minute run.

--This is the one I've been doing for the past 3 days. Even adding the little incline has made a huge difference. I am going to stay with a 1% incline for the rest of the week and then next week play with 1.5-2, hopefully increasing every week-two weeks--

Weights

** Anyone who reads my blog knows that weights scare me, and the only reason they scare me is cause I'm not really sore what I'm doing, and no one really took the time to explain them too me. Ha. I'm a big baby. **

Instead of doing my weights on a bench I use a stability ball, just cause it adds that extra little. <3 it. I didn't even feel like I did all that much Saturday, but boy did I feel it yesterday and Sunday. HA.

Upper Body

-3 sets 8 reps chest press--12.5lbs p/aper arm
-3 sets 8 reps flys--10lbs p/a
-3 sets 8 reps tricep pull--20lbs
-3 sets 8 reps bicep curl-12.5lbs p/a
-3 sets 8 reps oblique pull--20lbs
-3 sets 8 reps bench crunch with weight--12.5lbs (ABS)
-3 sets 8 reps tricep/shoulder fly--5lbs p/a

Lower Body

-3 sets 10 reps squats with 10kg each side(I think) Kait, correct me if I'm wrong.
-3 sets 10 reps lunges

Cool Down

3 sets of 10-20sec plank
3 sets of 6 bird/dog
STRETCH

This is about a 90 minute work out :) Amazing. 5-6 days a week. M-W-F I'll do HIIT and weights, Tu-Th I'll do mainly cardio with some abs, then find something productive to do Saturdays/Sundays. I can't wait for Saturday football to start again! COME ON WARM WEATHER!


I really think I need some new shoes. My hips and my shins were killing me after Saturdays HIIT. Like K.I.L.L.I.N.G me. Kait tells me to stop being such a wuss. Ugh.




Kait and Ruthie. Two of my most FAVe people ever. I stole this from Kaits fb. I guess I should have asked first. Sorry.<3 But seriously isn't Kait a babe, and isn't Ruthie a DOLL? I can't wait to play with these two SOON. I miss little Miss Ruthie.

Ugh.

BAHHHHHHHHH I just wrote a huge long blog about Kait, pictures, my WHOLE new workout and how it kicked my ass, I hit post, and it was saving as I posted it so it GOT LOST. Ugh. Too lazy to re post it, so it will be coming tomorrow!

The only Baby I can handle right now.





Dear Blogging world;

Please let me introduce to you my 'daughter' Velvina. She is my PRIDE and JOY, she was born on Feb 1/2010. She stands about 4 inches tall, she wasn't born with that thick of a head of hair. It took some intense care from mommy to be able to look as beautiful as she does.


Love: Proud Mama.


Ha. Isn't Velv swell? I love her. I got her for my birthday from this super cute girl in my ward Laura.(Thanks lady, I know you're reading this, or atleast your roomate is and will relay the msg, that Velv is being blogged about. Thanks Heather) I brought Velv to work, and have been nurturing her(adding a tbsp of water daily). Every morning when I come into work I am so excited about how much she's grown over night. I love it! I haven't been able to bring myself to cut her hair yet. It's sooo lush, and thick and beautiful. It's starting to get hard to water her tho, so I'll have to make a choice sooner or later :)

Thanks Laura for the cutest gift ever that has kept on giving. Everyone at work hearts Velv just as much as I do.

Food For Thought...

The Past is behind........ Learn from it.


The Future is ahead....... Prepare for it.


The Present is NOW........ Live it.



I love this quote. It really taught me alot today. I've realized that this is supose to be the BEST time of my LIFE. I'm supose to be out having fun.

Has it been? Nope.

Could it have been if I had a different attitude? YUP.

Who's fault is it going to be when I'm 50 and I think back to my 20's and have nothing good to say about it. MINE


I've been thru alot in the last 24 years on this earth. Alot more than some people hav to go thru in their entire lives. (I'm not the only one, I'm sure alot of people can say the same thing.)


I'm sure I could have taken alot more from experiences I've had in the past, that would make right NOW alot more bearable. I'm sure I could be preparing now for a better tomorrow.(No, nothing is wrong. I'm just reflecting right now.)


I've mentioned it a few times, but lately I've been a home body, I've been a little bit of a hermit lately. This really isn't like me AT ALL. I'm a very socialable person. I love being the center of attention. I like making people laugh, I love having fun. Wanna know what's wrong?

-Part of it is where I live, and who I live with. It's tough living with people you don't talk to/hang out with/like. I liked my roomates, but I don't LIKE them. We talk, but we've never hung out. I've lived with them for almost two years, and I really know nothing about them. I know you're probably saying "so move" Simple solution right? RIGHT, but it's not that easy. My old roomie Jaylene whom I love so much is moving back to Calgs in the fall for school. We had a blast. I'm pretty sure we'll live together again, so I'm just going to stick it out, so I only have to move one more time. I can't wait for the midnight dance parties again.

- I'm kind of getting sick of Calgary. It's the same people, same things happening just a different night of the week.So it's really hard to be motivated to go out and do things. I know I know, you're probably all saying WELL SWITCH IT UP. Ok, so I will. I will make more of an effort to do fun things, meet new people and have a killer time. I've prayed about moving, and about starting school again. The answer I keep getting is Yes, you will be going back to school, Yes you will be MOVING...but now is not the time. I've learned to listen to the Spirit. It's pretty smart. Last time I tried to force something that wasn't meant to be at the time some not so good things happened. I'm going to try and wait it out. You know the saying "the best things in life are worth waiting for" I sure hope this is true :)


I know you recieve as much, as the effort you put into things. So I will be putting more effort into making myself happy, meeting new people, and making this the BEST time of my life. I'm going to start by finishing the list of things in my "what every woman should do once" book. That in itself will make my life more zesty(yup, I just said zesty) ha!


Here's to a new attitude about life, and here's to hopefully making my 20's the BEST, and doing fun things, and growing, and learning more about myself.

Spice it up.....

I really need to spice up my workout a little bit.

That is why I am starting P90X FOR REALSIES this time on Monday. I did it with Bree a while ago, but then we stopped. We would have completed it twice. If we did, I wouldn't have been so depresed about trying on bridesmaids dresses last night. I'm not sure if the dresses we were trying on are just NOT flattering, or if I am REALLY that unflattering myself. Either THAT or it's the mirrors. I'd like to think it was the mirrors. Yup, it was the mirrors. Ugh. Either way I need to fix it. All the cardio I'm doing is really doing nothing but making me sweat. I need to tone up. That is what P90X is going to do for me.

My two besties down in Utah do all these funny DVD's under the sun. They just started insanity which APPARENTLY is 10x better than P90X, but I really don't want to waste money on it when I haven't even used my p90x. SO I will do this first THEN insanity. Ha. I'll be ripped. Rianne also just ordered Brazillion Butt workout. BAHAHA she's going to kill me if she sees I'm posting that on the www. haha! She's got a ghetto Peurto Rican beeehind! They even send you a free pencil for the pencil test. HA. I can't even do the pencil test. She says she can do the flashlight test. So the pencil test is when you take a pencil and you can hold it under your bum crease where your glute(yes I will be technical) connects to your hamstring(back thigh) My butt is sooooo non existant that when I was talking to her on the phone I tried it and I have no crease.


I love the gym, but I don't feel like I tone/do my weights the way I want too, and this 40-60 minute workout 6 days a week will REALLLLY cut down on my gym time. I'll be able to do more things during the week rather than being at the gym for 3 hours. I can go, do my one hour cardio, come home do my p90x and then carry on with my night. Sounds good right? RIGHT. But, minor glitch. I probably won't actually do it. Ha. It sounds wonderful in theory. I'm trying to get Mandy to do it with me. That way the both of us will stick to it.


Wish me luck.

What did I do this weekend......

Well, I can tell you what I DIDN'T do.

I didn't make any of those treats listed below. I wanted too. Believe me I did. I would have, but lets be honest I would have eaten them ALL. So I saved my waistline.

You're welcome waistline :)
Sorry people I was planning on giving them too, I saved your waistlines as well, don't hate.


I did however make some pottery, I'm almost done painting it. I will have a pretty HUGE mug to drink hot chocolate out of. Soo pretty.

I went to dinner with way good friends. Girls are seriously so fun. Why don't I have more girl friends?

I went to the gym lots--Gym Rat. I may or may not have pulled my hamstring.

I went to the Cross Iron Mall, I HATE forever 21, and H&M. They're too cluttery, and it frusterates me to be in there. Sorry ladies who love those places. Just not for me.

I went to a movie ALONE, all my byself. I went to see When in Rome. It was cute. Not what I expected :( I was a little disappointed.

Had a 8 hour Lost Marathon with Mandy. Ate some perogies and conquesa. So good.

I talked to Mallorie and Rianne. I miss them. I can't wait to see them. They rock. Rylynn is soo excited to see me. I'm excited to see her. Scott said I can only stay and their house as long as Rianne promises not to kick him out of bed so we can cuddle. Errr. No promises Scott. Sorry.

I am excited for American Shopping. :) Woohoo! I have been saving my pennies.

I'm excited to see (in no particular order) ASHLEY HART, CHASE KOTOWSKI, ERIC WHITING, MALLORIE WHITE, RIANNE WHITING, NATE 'spud' MORTENSEN, CLAYTON ALLSOP, JOEY EGBERT, and all the rest of my amazing Utard friends that I have yet to make plans with. My goal is to meet new people while I'm down there too. Oh how I can't wait to get back there to finish my nursing. P.A.R.T.Y .I.N .T.H.E .U.S.A.

I can't wait for my hair to grow. Please grow fast hair. I miss when you use to be long.

Valentines Schmalentines......

... I am very festive person. You can usually get me involved in just about any holiday and make it cute. It's just who I am. I can be creative when I need to be. I guess I served in the Relief Society for too long, because I'm always doing creative little crafts for my ward, and for the girls I visit teach. This holiday will be nothing short of the same thing.... I am FAR from the "little mormon" who ALWAYS has cute things up her sleeve but I sure do surprise people.


Here's what's on the agenda for this weekend with Mandy.






They of course will not be as appealing to the eye as these ones, but really who wouldn't love to get something like this on Valentines day:)

I have given out multiple TINKERBELL Valentines today around the Cancer Centre and it's soooo much fun. They were al lvery well received. So cute.

Dear Utah

Please let me come back and live there. I promise to be good this time. No driving a car that isn't mine and getting pulled over, no staying out as late(or early) as I use too, I promise I'll go to school EVERYDAY, no skipping, I'll do my homework, I promise I won't sell ALL of my plasma for moola(for that cute new shirt before my date.) I will drive the speed limit(scouts honor).

I miss the fun times we had, sledding in little cottonwood, student nights snowboarding, crusin on trax, goin' to the Jazz games, random visits to Liberty Park late at night(I know, retarded), going to UTES games, rolling down the hill in sugarhouse, tanning as much as I do, and still being white compared to other UTAH girls, visiting Temple Square weekly, trips to Provo for dance parties and the OVER ABUNDANCE of Mormon boys(cute mormon boys), being 6 hours from Vegas and 10-12 hours from Cali, staying up late laughing with my roomates(I don't really talk to my roomies now, so having good ones is important.) MASSIVE singles wards.

Oh Utah, as you can see I miss thee. Everytime I come and visit it breaks my heart a little bit more that I am no longer there with you. Call me crazy but I love the "Utah Mormons" I have soooo much fun with them! I will be back soon.


-Lach

So, I've been reading the super cute blogs of random girls around Utah from Dixie, USU, BYU, U of U, UVU and it really made me miss living down there. I've been having an internal debate on how I want to handle the whole school situation. I've decided that I AM going to finish my NURSING, and I want to be a humanitarian nurse. The timeline hasn't exactly been all hatch out yet, but I have 3 semseters-ish minus my intern(hopefully in Utah, Vegas or So.Cali) then I'll a Registered Nurse, I'll write my American NCLEX, then come back to Canada write that one then AWAY I go. Bah!!! It sure sounds like I have my life on track huh?

I have alot of 'nursing' blood in my family. My grandma was a Nurse, and my Aunt just retired from Nursing, and when I talked to her at Christmas, she told me that WHEN I finish my Nursing she will give me her Nursing pin, and her watch. Then hopefully if I'm a REAL GOOD GIRL, I'll get my grandmas too. Cross your fingers!

It's ALL relative....really it is

-Age is relative. Let me explain.

-When I was in grade 5 I thought I was SOOO old. I thought since I was the oldest in the elementary school, that I ruled it. Well, I didn't. I was allowed to go skating Friday nights ALONE when I hit grade 5. My dad would drop me off, tie my skates and away I went. That was the cool thing to do. ** Now when I look at kids in grade 5 I laugh. They're SOOO little. Holy cow. What was I thinking when I 10. Oyi.

-When I hit grade 8 (14rys old)again it might have been the fact that I was the oldest in the school, but I thought I was SOOO old. I got my learners that year, AND I got to go to stake dances(14-18ys old). I got to hang out in the grade 8 hallway, and got to eat lunch in Mr. Marshall's room. He was the coolest teacher ever! I look at kids in Jr. High and it makes me laugh. I really hope I was NOTHING like the ones I see these days, but I have a bad feeling I was. Ugh. ha.

-When I was in grade 12(18yrs old) I thought I obviously was SOOO old and mature. Nothing could get better than a highschool senior. Literally. It rocked, I had my license, I was able to date, hell I could vote if I knew what was going on, and if I drank, I could have boughten my own alcohol. Now, thats some responsible adulthood right there. I never had a care in the world when I was a senior. I went to school, kept up really good marks, and I played basketball, hung out with friends and went to lethbridge almost every weekend. Now that I look at Seniors I think they're SOOOO little. Holy cow.

-When I was a freshman in college. When I lived down in Utah, I thought I was this cute little 18 year old girl, living on her own, buying her own groceries, staying up as late as I wanted too, having as many people over at my house as I could fit. Life was great. I look a girls who are 19 and I laugh(rude huh) They're so inmature. I was NEVER ever like that at all.

- 20 to 23 I thought I was sooo cool, I have a career, I'm not a teenager anymore, I thought I was sooooooooo amazing! This fun little 20 year old who partied with her roomates, stayed up all night laughing.

- 24, Ugh. This age is still old to me(however it's all relative) I was talking to a 26 year old guy last night and he asked me how old I was. When I said 24 I sort of rolled my eyes, he laughed cause he knew I thought I was old. My friend Veronica who is 29 would give her right leg to be 24 again, and well I'd probably give both my legs to be 21 again. Well maybe not. Now that I look back on 21, 22 or even 23 it's still pretty young. I know when I'm 25-26ish I'll look back in 24 and laugh. 24 is NOT old, yet I am having such a hard time with it.(not really anymore, but I did for the first week)

Age is just relative. Lot's of things in this world are relative. I wonder what I am going to think when I'm 80 :) Could you imagine me 80? BAHA! I'm going to be the funnest grandma on the block!

Prayers

Everyone please pray for this little family. I don't know them, but it's sooo sad. It breaks my heart when I hear about things like this happening to babies, and little kids.

Dear Chocolate,

I hate your stinkin guts. I WISH you made me vomit.

Sincerely;
Lach



Ugh. Just when I decide I am going to start eating healthy, get back to the gym, tone up and lose a little bit of weight I get these INTENSE cravings for chocolate. Ugh. I don't want to like it. Last week I had chocolate almost everyday(not alot.) but enough to make me annoyed that I did it. I've been eating really healthy lately but since my birthday I've just been completely thrown off. BOOO.


I need help. Tips please. HOW do I stay away from chocolate. It's my enemy. Ugh. :)


--------------------------------

This weekend was awesome! Friday night I saw Dear John. Channing Tatum is beautiful. I wish boys looked like him in real life. Oh how life would rock :)

Friday night I was at the gym running sprints, and somehow when I was grabbing my towel it was under my waterbottle, and it flipped onto the running pad, and got slippery and I was running at 9.5 and I FLEW off the treadmill. Ouch. It hurt :)

Saturday I went to Canmore for my friends birthday, and hot tubbing. I took tons of pictures, but somehow deleted them, so once Mandy puts hers up on FB I will show the blogging world my nice beautiful brown locks.

We stopped on the way to Canmore to be tourists and take pictures and I was walking carefully down this slope to get to the lake, and I BIFFED it hardcore, and banged my knee and elbow :( ouch. -- I think I need walking lessons.

Sunday was the SUPERBOWL. I had high hopes for Manning and those Colts, but they disappointed me. It was a pretty good game. Saints played a good game! I got sustained in my calling, and received a blessing yesterday as well. I feel so much better, and I'm grateful for blessings, and I know that this is one that I REALLY needed.

What Happens In Provo.......

is such a cute blog.

Check out the blog. Super cute

Updates....

FYI....

- Since the night I woke up with no clothes on, that has not happened again. Thank goodness.

- I've been 24 for a whole 6 days, and I'm glad that no one has asked me my age yet. *shutter*

- I'm excited for this weekend. Canmore roadtrip with Mandy.

- I started re-running from my week hiatus last week. Not as painful as I expected it to be. My time wasn't even off, I sure felt like a fatty last week tho!

- I love love my dark hair now, it's official. It took me a few days to get use to it, but now I love it.

- I think people that add you to facebook to stalk you, find out what you've been up too, talk to you for a week, then when they've decided they're done talking to you delete you. Seriously, delete me once-shame on you, delete me twice-shame on me, but there's not going to be a 3rd time. I haven't seen this 'friend' who really hasn't been a friend in 3 years. He lives down in Utah/wyoming, and he acts like a girl( I secretly hope he stalks my blog, so he sees that I called him a girl) He's going thru some stuff right now...so maybe I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and just let it slide as him having a sissy fit.

- I'm excited for this coming spring/summer events and trips I have planned with my friends. I really hope that 24 isn't going to be as bad of a year as I'm assuming it's going to be.

- I've LOVED playing basketball again. So fun!

- I need to start being friends with girls more, because everytime my guy friends get girlfriends, we're not really friends anymore...cause most girlfriends are intimidated by their boyfriends lady friends. Lame. My friends list is slowly decreasing. Ugh.

- I have yet to beat brick breaker on my blackberry and I've had it for two years.

- I need to stop letting other peoples attitude determine MINE. This is a big problem for me.



*** I really want my followers to get to know me more, if you have any questions for me, please leave one in my comments and I will answer them.*** I love learning about the people I blog stalk, so here is your chance to ask me ANYTHING in the world, and I will answer it :)

Lifes GREATEST Mysteries

Seriously have you ever thought about the wonders and the mysteries that our world has. Some are soooo incredible you just bask in the awesomeness of them, and some you want to know how/why. Some great wonders/mysteries are:

- The Grand Canyon

- Nature

- Sunrises/sunsets

- Waves

- Cute boys haha

- Hair straighteners

- Make up

- Razors

** Ok, so the last few aren't really wonders or mysteries of the world but this last one still has me baffled, and if anyone can shed any light on the situation I'd appreciate it GREATLY!


- Why I woke up with less clothing than when I went to bed, and why I woke up backwards in my bed.


I'll never know.. hmmmm, and it's had me bugged all day long.

Ideas PLEASE!

So my ward just launched a blog- savvy huh? Well since being released from the Relief Society I've been kind of just sitting around not doing anything, I guess I looked a little bored cause I was extended a calling yesterday. I've been asked to be the 'fun editor' on the blog. Yup! Thats right! I'm FUN! I'm finally getting recognized for being fun too. So pretty much my job is to make the blog interactive, have contests, polls,jokes, funny stories, etc... SO I need all my blog followers to help a 'sistah' out and give me ideas for contests, and polls. I've got a few ideas I just need some help with more. I can post as much as I want(not as much as I post on this blog) but I can do it once a month, or even once a week. So I'm hoping to get some contests going, and some wicked sweet prizes.

I'll send anyone who gives me an idea(that I end up using) a prize too. So get creative and give me some feedback! If you feel so inclined to check out my ward blog go to www.edworthy.wordpress.com . I've browsed it a little already and it's fantastic! I'm excited.

What every Woman should do ONCE!




I got this book for my birthday from my dear friend and old roomie Jaylene(Love her) she's soo generous and got me alot of really cute things for my birthday. She leaves today to go to Europe for a month, and I' hope she has a very SAFE and fun trip. We've made some rules and plans that she needs to follow while she is over there to ensure she doesn't get kidnapped and turned into a sex slave(her words not mine) haha! She's a fun girl. She travels with her pink snuggie :) <3 her!

Anyways, this book is so fun, I looked thru it when she gave it to me, and I've decided that I'm going to complete EVERY single one of them-with the exceptions of a "few" that are inappopriate, I'll just change them to something else. But I will take a picture of the page and blog about the experience. Some of them I've already completed so I'll just blog about them but every other one I will start now. I'll go thru them in a little bit and post about the ones I've already done :) this will be so much fun :)


I've had a few requests for pictures of me and my hair :) I will post some soon, I think it's funny I got a new camera for Christmas and I have barely used it because I just take pictures on my blackberry and email them to myself, it's soooo much easier than having to download them to my laptop then blog, and my blackberry pictures of my hair don't look good, so I won't post them:) I think I'm going to invent a camera that has the internet so I can email pictures right from my camera. Wouldn't that be RAD? Done, I'm doing it. Anyways I promise I will take pictures soon and post them.
