sunday mornings

sundays just got better! usually every saturday i do something, and don't follow my normal sleeping pattern because i don't have school the next day. last night me and melissa watched eagle eye, pretty interesting movie. my second time and her first, but i wouldn't consider buying it, and then after that i watched snl as well, so i was up later than my usual 'bedtime'. church used to be at nine, which isn't as bad as school, but still pretty early. . . for me. ha. but now church is at eleven and i was very pleased to wake up without restraint this morning it was very nice! so i went straight to the fridge (becuase i forgot dinner last night). . . and opened a yoplait, and when i was looking for a spoon ana reminded me it was fast sunday, and i totally spaced for the few minutes! so i suran-wrapped the cup and put it back.
there are two types of sunday mornings in my house, hectic or easy-going. today was easy going, partially due to the fact that we have two more hours to get ready! but on hectic days we end up taking three cars, arriving at three different times, and some of us forget scriptures. it's not very fun, especially when we have to fight for the shower, but today it wasn't bad at all, its went really smoothly, so good way to start the year (:
our shower has three settings: regular, massage and. . . i don't know how to describe it. . . let's call it "jetstream", because its in the center and it comes out faster. so i figured out how to make go in between jet stream and regular. it feels really freakin' awesome when i wash my hair, i don't know why but it just does, but yeah.
i also go back to school for the first time since christmas break tomorrow, we will see how that goes, and hopefully i don't have any test when i get back, that always seems to happen to me.

sick families, bad drama teachers and amazing boulevards

this morning i woke up with a slight cold. i think it's my turn now, because my whole family has been sick at one time. it started with marie, who couldn't even down sprite. and if you know marie, not drinking sprite really means she's sick! then dallan, dad, and this morning my mom. poor thing, i felt realy bad for her. so today, i got all my chores done before eleven, made her tea and cleaned part of the kitchen. i don't mind when my family is sick but when they get sickt hey get grumpy sick. they don't lay in their bed quiet just waiting be good, they take it out on the family. me and my mother however just sit and wait for it to go away. it's a strange thing how sickness makes people act. so if i did work today, i would be able to because i feel pretty fine. but for some strange reason thorne printing closes three days around the holidays. so in jan, my work is close jan 1st, 2nd and 3rd,. . . yeah. everyone forgets that its even 2009 by the time that january third comes around, so either they are loosing a lot of buisness, or there is a line outside of thorne printing when i go back to work. haha, i begged them to switch me days because i now am in the process of doing the school musical. and if you have done one, you know it eats up like all of your time. our drama teacher here is on "adminstrative leave". . . he's fired. i guess he hit kids with a plastic bat and broke the bat, all out of anger. i think i'm officialy scared to work with that guy. of course, rumors went flying around like a wildfire, so i could be wrong. but he really did get arrested and all the admin. leave and stuff. so i don't know if we are ever really doing the play. my choir director says she will take it under her wing, but it doesn't seem like we have made any progress. and knowing the cast, it would be hard to pull out a quailty show before the end of the year. . .ha! maybe i am underestimating, myself and the art dept. but who knows. on monday i will probably find out what is going on (or i hope) and see if the choir director is being serious about the play. . . either way, if we do it or not, i'm totally ok. (:

*oh and let me not forget, there is this amazing boulevard called 'garity blvd'. (excuse my spelling if you need to) but it's my favorite one in nampa. . . hope that makes my aunt feel somewhat better. ha!

nampa

i went to boise today, and because i went there i realized how much i love why i don't live there. i used to live there but eventually moved to nampa, obviously.  i love it here.  a lot of people i know tend to complain about this place, and that when they can they will move out!  i disagree, nampa is so amazing.  there probably isnt as many things to do entertainment-wise, however oppurtunity wise nampa is a thriving community. everyone knows where everything is, where 12th is, where Greenhurst is and where different buildings are located, unlike some cities or towns.  or course,  i would like to get out, and i dont wish to spend my whole life in nampa, but growing up, i think it is definitly a place for oppurtunity.  nampa has a lot of things that most communities need, and it's not like we are deprived of anything that most cities do have. . . except for an ice skating rink. haha. maybe thats what i'll do when i grow up. . . build nampa's first ice skating rink called "j's skating corner". HA! no, that's just weird, anyways! nampa is a great place, thank goodness i still have a while before i have to leave!

breaks

it happens every time i have an extended break in the middle of school, christmas, summer, spring, thanksgiving, all of those. i get really bored and it just brings out how un-creative i can be. so today i am going to boise while my family watches hsm-three (i have already seen that twice) and i refuse to watch it again. first two times were great but i can only handle so much of one movie before i become irrated. so i am taking my mom's car and finding something to do down there.
on breaks i usually tend to clean my room a lot, and it has been happening these last few days, but somehow, sometime it gets dirty and i don't know how! its pretty frustrating but i manage. and since its break i stay up however late i want and dont worry about sleep anymore, so last night i watched eagle eye for the first time. dang! it was so packed with 'action' that there wasn't a minute in the movie that i really felt calm, because it wsa so intense. compared to vantage point this show is a knock-out. it was pretty well planned. i think you all need to watch it, and if you don't like it, thats ok too. (: so for these last few days of break i am going to sleep in and stay up as much as i can, and not worry about anything. hopefully i don't have a hard time going back to school and waking up at seven a.m. so far i have a had a pretty amazing break. (:

its january first!

it's two-thousand and nine! that means another year closer to becoming grown up, kinda scary but i'll live. i figured out that sledding makes me sore...weird, i know. me and melissa went sledding with my family on christmas eve day and the next day we were both sore! i was laughing and i felt quite stupid when it hurt to tie my shoes. anyways, after that we played scrabble at the flying m and i learned some new words, thanks to harrison. "funder" and "vizit" are both new words, both with real meanings too! funder is a mix of fun and thunder. . . so if you ever need to combine those two words thats when you would. and vizit is just fun to say, but it's a spin on "visit", and with the z substitution, it makes the word that much more cool.

i've been reading (or looking. . . well both) at this amazing book. it is basically a collection of the best one-hundred photographs ever taken. it seriously amazes me, even when the photo seems random. many of them have to do with historical events throughout america's history, and sometimes even world history. my favorite photos are of marylin monroe, and not for that reason. she was such an icon that any photo of her kinda became a classic, idk, just that era must have been amazing to live in. thats just another thought.

so whenever i go to a good resteraunt i always think to myslef: "i could do this...easy". in fact i have always thought it would neat to own my own resteraunt but have never really had too much interest in the culinary field. i just kinda dream about it, but today those dreams were ruined. i made a batch of basic chocolate chip cookies today and didnt realize how much work it took. that sounded really lazy but anyways...by the time i was done cooking my black shirt was covered in flower and my hands were quite sticky. i had to wash all the utensils and sweep a little bit too. not that im lazy, i just never really knew how much work actually went into cooking i thought was so simple, or maybe it's just me. i was pretty excited that they turned out so great. . .mmmmm.
