So on Sunday I met a new person who seemed to be nice enough, and then all of the sudden he started to throw down so pretty mean things. Ie...he told me that I should know that if he doesn't like a person straight off the bat then we won't ever like them. So I should be careful. I know that I am a little over excited about things sometimes and annoying at others, but this was a little much for me to handle. Who says that!? He obviously doesn't have a lot of friends. So my friends and I came up with some rules...it started out with one and went to three or four I don't remember. But I will tell them to you,
Rule Numero Uno- If you are ugly you should never be mean to people because you have nothing else to fall back on. I don't mean this is a mean way at all! I think I mostly said it because he hurt my feelings. I don't think very many people don't like me. It was a defense mechanism. It was also kinda ironc cause no one should be mean ever and here I was saying one of the rudest things I have ever said in my life!
Now you should know that this is not justifying mean people on any level. I think that all people should be nice, it the rule above all, but this is just a good rule for everyone. I know mean.
ANYWAY!
Rule Numero Dose-(Is that how you speel two in spanish? I don't know why I am doing it in spanish, I just am!) If you are socially awkward in anyway you should never ever try to be funny, because for the most part it will back fire on you and then people will think you are just mean! ( I don't know if this is what this kid was doing so we figured we should cover our bases and establish this rule.)
Rule Numero Tres- So I was eating a baked potato at the linger longer and it was so amazing! I like to mash all of my stuff up so it mixes together and is pure amazingness! This is how rule number three came about. A member of the Bishopric came up behind me to ask me if i had been set apart for my calling as i was mashing away. It kinda startled me! I then felt really dumb and really small, like i was five! (for those of you who know me you will know that this is no surprise!) I was telling this to my friend Kellen and he says "Well it's okay if you do it cause is like oh hey look at how cute she is! But if you are a guy like me they go 'oh my gosh that is so disgusting what is that guy doing to his food?' So even though I want to do it i can't because i am a guy." SO...the rule is if you are a cute girl you can do almost anything you want to with your food because you can pull it off as cute. If you are a guy you have so such luck!
SO...if you were there for the rules on Sunday just take a moment and go over them again and have a nice laugh about them.
Second thing to say today...sometimes I look at things in life and how it all plays out and I ask myself, "How did THAT Happen?!" Life has a tricky way of throwing curve balls at you and all the sudden everything is upside down and all backward! President Hinckley has the formula for getting through it all!
"It isn’t as bad as you sometimes think it is. It all works out. Don’t worry. I say that to myself every morning. It will all work out. If you do your best, It will all work out. Put your trust in God, and move forward with faith and confidence in the future. THE LORD WILL NOT FORSAKE US. HE WILL NOT FORSAKE US…If we will put our trust in him, if we will pray to him, if we will live worthy of his blessings, he will hear our prayers."
President Gordon B. Hinckley
Thank heavens I know this is true or im not sure i would be able to make it through life!
Oh boy...have an amazing week everyone!

How Much wood would a wood chuck chuck...?
Alright so this summer has been jam packed! I cannot believe how much has happened! At the beginning of the summer when Britt and I decided to move in together we made a summer fun list. Now this list has things that are super easy to do i.e. Blowing bubbles (which we have done to some great extent. We both now have bubble wands in our purses, who knows when you will need a bubble fix?) To things that a are a little more difficult. Like boating, or going to a cabin at bear lake. Both of these activities require us to make new friends! Oh and have we ever made new friends! It is so great!
We are never at a loss of people to hang out with. If one group can't do something the other group can! We are having the time of our lives and we are dragging people along with us. We both figure that if we are only this age once, we will only be unmarried and childless for so long we might as well party it up while we can!
So some of the most amazing activities in which we have participated in (Most of these we did together but some not.)
1- Boating/ Wake boarding down at Lake Powell! AMAZING!
2- Floating the Logan Canyon Canal at midnight! The stars were amazing! The giant spider I found on my leg was not. And like ten seconds into the float the raft Britt and I were sharing popped so we had to hop onto others tubes! It was pretty funny!
3- All three of us ( Britt, Becca, our other roommate, and I) Went on a triple date the other day with these really fun guys and they took us to go and see the movie Up. Which is good but made me kinda sad at the beginning. Anyway, we got into the theatre and it was only us in there, on of the boys brought up a good point of the fact that we rented out the theatre for 45 dollars. So we decided to play a game. Every time the words Paradise Falls was said in the movie we had to move around and find new seats. It was the best date movie I have ever been to! And we could talk as loudly as we wanted cause who was going to tell us to be quiet?
4-Hiking the wind caves. I liked this because I found out a very important lesson, it usually isn't the destination but the journey.
5- All of our dinners and pic-nics up the canyon! So so much fun!
6-Our friend Burd has a canoe, so we all took a trip down the Logan city canal. We went from 1000 N to 1400 N and then back up again. We discovered that trees aren't our friends and that we need to practice. Burd said he would help.
7-Bouldering out at the Hannah property. Ben and I went and it was so much fun. It was almost like the old days between us. I don't think it will be a memory I will ever forget. It was like I had my best friend back for two hours.
8-Dave Knightons cabin in bear lake. This is where we spent our fourth of July. It was so much fun! We made new friends and we taught them how to play ninja destruction. And we borrowed our friend Teancums car, which is an old blue station wagon with the fold down seats in the back, and six girls piled into it and headed on up to the cabin. I don't know what was more fun the cabin or the ride home!
9- Okay so this is going to sound silly but we have made a new friend who has really made this summer so much fun! Her name is Sasha and she is amazing! And even though she is not an activity she has made all of our activites fun!
So there you have it folks! Our summer thus far has been amazing! YAY US! :)
