Tuesday, June 12, 2012

Oh how I love my life. Recently, I've been watching a lot of netflix. Some shows that I've been watching the past few months are Vampire Diaries, Gossip Girl, 90210, Lost, and Supernatural. Through watching these, (especially Gossip Girl and 90210) I've come to realize that I am so blessed! haha that may sound weird, but here's why. You can tell by the name of Gossip Girl (if you don't watch it already) that it is FULL of drama. It takes place in the upper east side of New York. So.. yes, rich snobs. BUT I am so happy my life is not that crazy. And then 90210 is also like that because it takes place in a Beverly Hills, California with a bunch of rich kids. I watched seasons 1-4 of Gossip Girl while I did telemarketing at work. So, after about 5+ hours of watching it every day, my mind started playing tricks on me. I started getting all worked up about life and stressed out. Then, when I tried to think of why.. I didn't know. Haha so unfortunately, I don't reccommend watching that much of that show at once.. that often. Haha it's not healthy. I never got too far into 90210 while doing calls for me to get that way about that show. But, I can imagine it is a similar experience. After coming to the realization that my life was not going to end and wasn't a mess.. (my life is actually basically the opposite. haha) I realized how much I have to be happy about. I have a great family.. friends.. and an amazing boyfriend. (I already knew this.. but it was kind of a slap in the face reminder kinda thing!)
My house is currently... very full. Haha it was even more full about a month or so ago when my aunt lived at my house too. But anyway, right now my sister and her family (4 people), my brother and his family (4 people), my parents and I all live in the same household. Not only that, but that means there are 4 kids under 6 years old. Haha there's always something going on. It's pretty nice though because my brother and his fam moved from Snowflake, AZ and so it's been nice to see them more often. They are actually working on moving out into a rental house that my parents got here pretty quick, but it's like 3 streets away from my house. So, that's nice. And then my sister and her family have lived at my house for a while now. Me and my sister are close, so it's always nice to my best friend around prettymuch all the time. It'll be a big shock when all of us are gone...for my parents.
My friends.. I don't see very often anymore since I've been dating Adam for about 4 months now. So, I've kinda gone MIA. But, hey.. it happens. I do get to see Summer like all the time since I work with her. haha so that's nice. And then Karlie just moved to Provo for a couple months.. so I wont see her for a while. Other than that, I don't see much of anyone else. But... I have Adam :) and I'm completely content.
The last couple of weeks have been pretty fun. Starting with the 1st of this month. My work decided to take the day off and make a lake day with the whole company. So me and Adam went to Canyon Lake with everyone from work. They rented jetskis and had a couple people bring boats and stuff. Did I take pictures? No. FAIL. But it was pretty fun. Minus the fact that Adam got a ticket... on a jetski. Yeah, it's possible.. so watch out. He got a navigation violation. Apparently you're suppose to drive on the right side of the lake.. or going counter-clockwise. So, they gave him a citation. It was stupid though because it was his first time on a jetski and he didn't even know. I didn't even know and I've ridden jetskis enough that I thought I knew enough.. guess not. But anyway, it's not a huge deal though. They just want him to get education.. by going to a $5 boating class. Haha it's prettymuch a waste of time, but what can ya do?
That following sunday was pretty fun as well. I got to go with Adam and his family to Laguna Beach, California to a beach house that his family rented. It was pretty nice. We got there on Sunday and just mainly hung out that day.. walked on the beach a little bit.. tore up my foot. It's fine. Haha no, but I really did tear my foot up. It wasn't too bad though, I just stabbed a hole in my big toe and then scratched up some other parts of it. It really wasn't a big deal. It sounds worse than it was. I got it the day we got there too, which kind of sucked, but yeah.. it was when we were walking on the beach and the tides were coming way up to the side of the house and we were trying to run up and get on rocks or whatever so we didn't get washed away in our clothes. I was just trying to escape the water and i jumped up the side of some steps that had some rocks around it and it tore my foot open. But anyway, yeah.. so that's sunday. Then monday we went to go see the ship Queen Mary in Long Beach. We got to go on it and look around and also got to go on a haunted tour. It was a fun experience. I definately wouldn't mind living there.. if i was rich. Haha but I'm not.. so it's just a dream. After we visited the ship, we went back to the house and then boogieboarded. That was pretty fun! We even saw dolphins pretty close to shore from our porch. Not while we were in the water, but there were surfers pretty close to them. It was pretty cool. I didn't get any pictures of it unfortunately. Then we just hung out the rest of the evening. The next day.. Adam was sick. It was pretty sad, but we just hung out and stayed in bed all day. Then, the next morning we got ready and drove home. That's basically california in a nutshell.. a rather large nutshell.
On saturday June 9, we went to Octane Raceway (use to be F1 Raceway) so that was pretty fun. I wish I would have gotten some pictures, but I didn't. It was pretty fun though. Those cars go pretty dang fast. They make you wear a helmet and all! So that was fun!
Then this sunday, June 10, we hung out with my family in celebration of my brother in law, Jason's birthday. It was a chill night. Played some pictionary.. nothing crazy. Since then, nothing really exciting has happened.
Life is crazy.. I never would have thought I'd be where I am 5 months ago. I love my life and everything in it! Honestly, I really can't think of anything bothering me right now. That's pretty dang good! I guess I shouldn't speak too soon.. but yeah. I love love. :)
And if you were wondering.. Yes, "love" is written with glass cleaner on a mirror.
