Today I got an email from the registers office about GRADUATION! I can't believe it is really happening? In FIVE weeks I will be a GRADUATE from Utah State University. I am seriously FREAKING out... I have three more pay checks and than I have to find a real job... This is happening all to fast....
The good thing is I know my life is headed in the right direction. I have been applying for different jobs. I really want to move outside of Utah. I love it here but I really LOVED living outside of Utah. It will always be my home but I am ready for the change.... No better than Miss Chelsea Irons herself is coming with me.
Our BIGGEST dream in life is moving to EUROPE! We are trying to make that happened. Things are looking up at this point but we will see what happens. Our back up plan is moving to Washington DC. We both don't want the back up plan to happen because we want the real plan to come into play. It is all a matter of time. There is one thing I know for sure... I will be moving from Logan. I have LOVED Logan for the past four years of my life. I consider this my home now. It is really weird to think about moving... like it is a dream or something.
My life has always been planned out for me. I always knew I was going to college after high school, but what about now? Where am I suppose to go. I know the good lord will help me in my decision making process... until than I will just keep chipping again to graduation!
XOXO

Goodbye 22....
Today is the last day of my twenty second year here on earth.... I have been alive for 8,030 days!!! WOW I am one lucky girl!
these are the 22 things I loved about being in my twenty second year of life.
- Starting my LAST semester at Utah State University!!!
- My best friend Kaitlin coming home from her mission in Germany.
- multiple of my best friends getting married
- becoming an aunt to Jax and Rook Henshaw, not many people are aunt's to perfect twin little boys. being an aunt to Sydell, Taige, Lilly, and Sedrah
- going back to Walt Disney World and working in the Emporium, mostly seeing everyone that continues to work there.
- knowing that I can do and go through hard situations
- being better with my finances.
- Road tripping to California with 14 of the greatest people to experience Disneyland for the first time.
- trying new things like, snow shoeing, rock climbing, etc
- running the Salt Lake City MARATHON!
- Going to my VERY FIRST JAZZ game!
- Making a list of 100 Dreams I want to accomplish in my life time and starting to cross some off my list!
- Miss Ashley Pawlak coming to UTAH to visit Chelsea and I
- Watch an entire season of 24 in 48 hours, re watched every episode of the OC.
- Summer classes, seriously I don't know WHY I did not take summer school before now.
- Finding new goals I want in life
- Going to Jackson Hole for the first time with my best friend Chels, sleeping in her car, hiking, running, taking pictures, talking, playing car games, eating, etc. BEST road trip EVER!
- Coming up with the business plan for "BROKEN HEART" I can't wait until it happens, I need to remember I was 22 when I thought of this.
- Seeing my siblings multiple times even though we live across the country from each other. Can't wait until Christmas when I see them again!
- Locking my keys in my car for the first time!
- becoming better friends with those around me. especially my roommates this year. they are all the greatest. I am so lucky to live with such incredible girls!
- learning more and more about myself and the person I want to become! I am one lucky, lucky girl. I can't wait to continue my life being 23 years old. I think 23 has a lot in store for me!
I think the only thing I am going to miss about being 22 is the fact when I walk into a room and hold up the double peace sign... its not my age anymore...

Old Maid
I randomly talked to one of my best friends from Florida tonight that I haven't talked to in the longest time. she is a great girl and I am sad I haven't kept in better contact with her.
As Kathleen and I were talking we started to talk about what I am going to do with my life when I graduate... Now Kathleen is not Mormon and doesn't know much about Mormons. I said to her I always figured I would be married by the time I graduated... When I was a little girl I just knew I would be married...
Well that isn't happening...
now I am going to have to find a career i guess... The best comment made was... WOW you are really young to be thinking about marrying someone? Thank you Kathleen! i think so as well. I kept calling myself the old maid.
Second greatest comment.... So you want to marry a Mormon right Emo? YES!!! Well if every Mormon gets married at a young age than are your picks running out? I mean I want you to get the best Mormon guy out there. because you are so great... you need someone just as great... are Mormon guys great? I told her yes. I also told her she has no need to worry. I still have a wide variety... I don't know if my sisters can say the same...
It was the best conversation ever. Kathleen is great. I just wish I had purple pants now....

September 27 - October 4
What a great week it has been. I seriously am the luckiest girl alive. I really think that. I have so much to be grateful for. There are so many great things that happened this week.
#1 GENERAL CONFERENCE!!! The LDS church has General Conference twice a year. It is a great time because we get to hear from all the general authorities, and of course the prophet. I went home this weekend and got to go to Conference on Sunday morning with Miss Mandi Burton. She is seriously the greatest. We had a great time even though it was REALLY early.... It is just something about being in the same room as the prophet that is SO great!
#2 Root Canal/ Warts.... before i moved to Florida (two years ago) I went to the dentist, while there they told me I would have to get a root canal on my #3 tooth.... Since I was moving to Florida they didn't do it. I have been in pain since then... :( FINALLY I got a root canal on that tooth!!! I can chew on my right side of my mouth now. It is the greatest thing ever. right before the dentist this time I went to the doctor. I had flat head warts all over my leg and didn't even know about them. She had to freeze them all off... It was PAINFUL.... but all is good now. I am wart and root canal free!!!
#3 Kristin Richards! On Thursday I was down in Orem at Timpanogos, they retired Kristin Richards jersey. I played volleyball in High School with Kristin. She was the player I wanted to be. She is AMAZING at volleyball and just the nicest person you will ever meet. She has done amazing things with volleyball. I wouldn't be surprised when I see her in the Olympics one day. She was so sweet, I am so glad I got to see her again.
#4 Utah State vs BYU football game. It was great to be with Aunt Jane on Friday night at Cougar Stadium. I was the ONLY Aggie fan in the middle of all cougar fans... But it was a great game. The people around us were VERY interesting and it made me VERY happy to be an AGGIE! I of course was listing to the newly married couple behind us and the guy said "honey I am not here to talk to you, I am here to watch Football. I will talk to you when we get home. Don't talk to me when the game is going..." What a lucky girl.... NOT. I wanted to turn around and walk the girl out to the stadium. I couldn't believe it. we may not be the best at Football, but man the people in Logan are the best! We lost... but we scored first, and didn't embarrass ourselves. Thanks Aunt Jane for such a great night.
#5 DUNK!!! Ok so my little niece Dunkin aka Sedrah is the cutest thing ever. On Friday I got to babysit her. She loves her aunt Bobo. She is the greatest thing. I call her probably four times a week. She makes my day every time. I love her so much!
#6 Chels and Tris! I love all of my roommates. We have such a great time together. Chels and Tris came down to Orem this weekend and spent the night. It was so great for them to get to know my parents. Chels, Mom Henshaw, and I went to dinner on Saturday night at Brick Oven. It was so good. We later went out to see our new house... it makes me a little sad to see it because I don't really want my parent's to move... but whatever. I will just miss 44 West 1640 North.... We played Hand and Foot my parents favorite card game. chels and I rocked for a little while but then Mom and Dad stepped up there game and beat us. Thanks Chels and Tris for coming down and staying at the Henshaw's!
#7 job hunt... Believe it or not I am actually going to Graduate from College!!! I graduate December 12, 2009 I can not wait... BUT looking for a job is NOT fun. chels and I really want to go abroad somewhere. We both really want to go to Europe! It would be the greatest. I have been looking for any and everything over there. Yesterday I talked to one of my good friends from Disney and she gave us lots of good advice. Hopefully we can find something soon!
#8 Kamin. there is the greatest restaurant in Logan called Kamin. It is a Tia Food restaurant that is amazing. I am all about coupons lately and got one there for buy one get one free. Whitney Burton and I went there on Tuesday and we just got four meals and shared them between the two of us. It was SO good! Thanks Whit for being my date!
#9 Mom and Dad Henshaw! My parent's are the greatest thing ever. I dont know how I got so lucky to have them I love them so much. It was great to be around them for the weekend. I am so lucky to be so close where I can hangout whenever I want. I just love love love them!
#10 My Lovely and Emi. This weekend while at home I got to webcam two of my best friends from Florida. Laura aka Lovely lives in Scotland. I love when I get to talk to her. I don't get to very offend but when I do I remember how much I love her. She is the greatest. she looks SO beautiful and I mostly want to go to Europe just to see her! Emi and I got to talk later. I miss my Emi so much. I get to talk to her more but it was SO good to see her face. She is always so fun to talk to and always makes my day better when I see her!

Top 10 of the Week!
I decided that I am going to recap my week on my blog so I can remember everything I did!
Top 10 of the Week! September 20-27
#1. Finding out that at The Beehive Grill has an INCREDIBLE deal!!! On Monday's from 3-5 they have hamburgers and fries..(I don't eat the fries because of my New Year's Goals) for $2.50! yes that is right 2 dollars and 50 cents!!! You can't even get that at Wendy's. Great deal! i will be going every Monday!
#2. Taco Tuesdays. YES, Logan is a college town so they do things for the college students. they have tacos Tuesdays at Cafe Rio.. I LOVE cafe Rio! so it is a great deal! I love going. After Whitney Burton and I went to music and moonlight because it was Homecoming week at Utah State!
#3. My FIRST exam of the semester. My persuasion class that I am LOVING had a test on Tuesday. I was SO ready for it and I did really well. This professor is amazing at writing multiple choice questions that apply to "real life" They are hard because they could apply to many theories but you have to choose the best one!
#4. Skylar Jenkins cabin! We went to Bear Lake on Friday to Skylar's cabin! it was a great time. we had pizza. I made peach cobbler for the first time. it turned out GREAT! it was really fun... and an incredibly nice cabin!
#5 Heather Fawson! I seriously love this girl! she is so incredible. I just LOVE her! we had such a great time at the cabin. I am so lucky to have her as a friend.
smile with your eyes!!!
#6. This GREAT bath tub! i want to own it one day. I thought it fit so well at the cabin. I wish my parents would put it in there new house. It was great!
#7. Old Navy... GREAT DEALS! So I never spend money on clothes unless they are on sale. One of my best friends once told me..."emo you are going to 20 dollars your way to heck..." this is SO true about me. BUT listen to this great deal, I got 7 ideas for 20 dollars. you really can't get better than that. I was SO happy about it!
#8 The USU football game! the AGGIES actually won a game! it was a BIG DEAL!!! We finally won our homecoming game. I've been at Utah State for five Homecoming games now and this was the first one we have ever won! 53-37 it was a great day!
Free Hats!
#9 The Taylors and Nortons! After the game I decided to hangout with the married couples. I really had a great time with them. We made everyone happy and went to all different restaurants to get food. then we went home and made mac and cheese. It almost made me want to get married... almost... Love the Nortons and Taylors!
#10. Grey's Anatomy season premier. Chels, Tristian, and I were VERY excited about Grey's starting again... It was a let down.. It was good to watch and I am happy it is started again but really it is not as good as we thought. Hopefully it will get better this week.
All in all it was a GREAT week! Life has never been better. Just living each day to the fullest! :)

I seriously thought it was the greatest thing ever. i am a huge fan of Oprah! Well I saw on Oprah's kickoff party Dance, it was AMAZING! One of the coolest things I have ever seen. It is one of my dreams to get a huge group of people and do the same dance. Seriously its on my 100 dreams in life. Well on Oprah they did it. I only wish I was the girl in the front row. One day... one day this dream of mine will happen... cant wait for that day!
