I never thought it would really happen....

Oh my gosh!!! My life was really made into a television show last night... I couldn't believe it. I sat there thinking how did they take this story from my head? Did the other person involved tell? Why am I not getting paid for my story on the Bachelor? If he told is he getting paid? I should be getting a check...


I have this friend of mine that we went through a pretty 3 almost 4 years now crazy time together. We really liked each other... maybe even love... Neither of us really knew what it was...

When we were going our separate ways, I said to him "our relationship could really be made into a movie one day?" We even joked about our fans and everything. It is that interesting, and we are that cool.

(I really don't think this friend of mine even reads my blog anymore... but if you do... Our relationship is famous we deserve to get paid... well its famous through two other people but you know what I mean)

So here's the dirt....

WELL last night I was watching the Bachelor Season finale.... (I LOVE this stupid show for some reason.) Really it is SO stupid but it gets me every time... good thing for DVR because I can just fast forward.

I was TOTALLY a Tenley FAN. I thought she was the sweetest girl. She is BEAUTIFUL as well. She sees the positive in everything, she also use to work at Disney (my kind of girl). I wanted her to win so bad. I picked her from the beginning and LOVED her.

------------ Well sadly last night she didn't win, she got dumped and everyone was shocked... (well kinda I knew this was going to happen the whole time... but how it went down was interesting.)

EVERYONE told Jake that Tenley was just the better choice. It made sense to EVERYONE in his family, to all of us viewers, and of course to Tenley (she was totally in love with him thinking this was it).... BUT it didn't make sense to Jake... Something was missing... I was Tenley, my friend was Jake.

Direct quote from Jake... (This is were they stole me life... This is how the conversation with my friend went when we went our separate ways)


"We have had such an amazing time getting to know each other, and there are just so many things that I love about you. I love that we have the same values and the same morals and the same temperament. I mean, just your smile and your positivity, and I do love you. I mean you're just perfect as you are. And I don't what it is. Something just doesn't feel right. I don't know why."

--------------- I swear they stole my conversation with my friend....... Serioulsy our conversation went like this... There was obviously a lot more to it but WOW I couldn't believe it...

***I may or may not have found myself crying right long with Tenley. I mean seriously you think you found the person you want to spend your life with then.... GONE... I just feel her pain...

BEST BEST BEST thing Tenley said all night... Once again stolen from my conversation...

The exes agreed to remain friends after Jake said, "You have a life friend. This is not good bye." Tenley expressed that she hoped Vienna would be okay with the friendship and said, "I can say that I am relieved I wasn't her if you were feeling so much love for both of us."

Bottom line... Tenley a better person for going on the show and knowing she wants to spend the rest of her life with someone who LOVES all of her!!! Not just giving pieces of their hearts to many girls...

This is just like my life a year ago, I am a better person for going through a hard time. Although it didn't work out how I wanted it... My friend and I are extremely happy people. We went our separate ways and it was the best best best thing for both of us. Sometimes life goes in a different direction... but always the right direction! I miss my friend at times... but know my life is in the right direction!

BUT I should still get a check for having my life on NATIONAL TELEVISION... Maybe I will call Tenley and we can bond! I can't believe my life was on Television! I'm FAMOUS!!!!

Europe Love

Dear Chelsea,

It has only been one day and I already really miss my best friend in the world. I LOVED the email you sent "all" (I will make fun of you later for that). I can't wait to skype. Thanks for being the best friend in the whole world. If it was up to me I would be there with you... but remember Heavenly Father thinks he is funny...SO I am in Orem Utah (Which I am really grateful for). BUT one day I will be in Europe with you! I REALLY REALLY REALLY miss you! Good thing I am going to Florida tomorrow. The magic will make me happy.

LOVE YOU!!!! xoxo

Pedometer

Okay so Amy came to work yesterday with a pedometer on... I thought to myself (and later told her) Why are you wearing that? They are not even accurate...

We had our weekly HR meeting and she was telling us about "how many steps she had taken." Karlyn (our boss) said "I think we have some those in the back?"

After the meeting she brought one out to me. Amy was SO mad that I was making fun of it them Karlyn just gave me one...

I had to apologizes to Amy because I LOVE this thing. It is amazing how many steps I walk... or don't walk... sometimes I will be sitting here thinking when is the last time I even got out of this chair.

I still don't know how accurate it is but I don't really care I LOVE it! Amy and I will make bets on how many steps away something is. They are great! The recommended steps a day is 10,000... I don't know how anyone makes it too 10,000. I made it to 6,721 and was SO happy. Yesterday only 3,612. I need to step up my game.

I will keep you informed.

xoxo

P90X

Tess and I have been getting up every morning at 5:15 to work out with Dave and the boys/ always one girl... well sometimes there is two... like this morning. P90X has been SO great. I am not noticing a difference yet and I really don't think I will because my body is kinda weird, but I have LOVED getting up in the morning to workout. It changes my whole day.

I didn't think I would be this way but when I get home from work the last thing I want to do is workout. I was doing that for the first couple weeks and it just wasn't working so well. So Tess and I decided to start waking up and working out. I swear I am in a better mood throughout the day. Things don't really tempt me as much to eat. (Well Ashley Taylor does, but she will never get me:) I have really liked it. I don't know what I didn't do this before.

P90X is such a great workout. I have really enjoyed doing it thus far. I hope I can continue!!!

XOXO

Twin Falls Idaho!

I ALWAYS love Twin Falls when I go visit and this time was no exception. I went up to visit my best friend Chelsea. I left on Friday afternoon about 1:30. I got off work super early because I was over hours... It was great. I got up there around 5, the drive wasn't to bad... long by myself but it was good personal time! You know EMO time. We just hung out, went to Target and of course I found something I love. We went to a mexican food resturant that everyone loves in Twin... I just forgot the name but it was really good. Ash Hall met up with us, she was in town for a wedding, it is always good to see her. I miss the three of us living together. After dinner we went to see Dear John. I didn't love it. I mean it was okay but I would only red box it. Not worth 8 dollars... (well chels paid two so the six dollars). Randi came with us as well, she was in Twin for the same wedding. She is always so great to be around.

The next morning we got up and worked out at CSI. They have a great workout room. Lynn and Steve (Chels parents) came with. We went to the canyon after, my VERY FAVORITE part of Twin Falls. Seriously one of the prettiest things I have ever seen. I love it! We later when to see Randi's parents house they are building. It is going to be BEAUTIFUL. I can't wait to see it when it is done. We came home and got ready. Chelsea made me go to a wedding reception. Someone she went to High School with. I am glad we only stopped by. I felt really stupid. But I got over it really quick.

The UTAH STATE game was on TV so ofcourse us alumni watched in support. We dressed the part.... ofcourse. GO AGGIES! They beat Nevada. I wish I could have been there. Tristan came over for the game. I love that girl! We made pizza and had treats.

Here are a few pics from the much needed Emo and Chels time:











Thank you IRONS for letting me stay for the weekend. I love you all!

MICE

There are MICE in my house....

Tess and I moved into our house about three weeks ago. I love living with Tess she is seriously the best. So I moved into a room that probably hasn't been cleaned for months... not the mention the bathroom. Anyways I moved in and cleaned my room up, stupidly thinking the house was clean just not my room. BOY was I WRONG.

Last weekend Tristan, Amy, and Chels were down. We got home from church and they were packing there stuff up when Tristan say very calming (which was weird) there is a mouse under your bed.... I FREAKED OUT. jumped on my bed and never wanted to get down. We looked to see if we could see it and nothing. I CALLED my landlord to report the problem. It had been reported before but now I needed to take more action. My landlord didn't answer and TEXT me back later. He said he would set more traps and we needed to be clean. I thought to myself, you need to have someone come in here and clean this whole place... Anyways that night my cousin, Stafford came over and looked under my bed to make sure nothing was there. I was good to sleep for that night.

Monday night I get home from work and Tess is screaming that the mouse is in her room. She had it trapped and was ready to catch it. I get in there for emotional support. I ran out to get a bag. I went into my room, moved my bean bag and there the mouse was.... I screamed. Tess came running to the rescue. Our ward friend was over for the first time (what a great first impression) she was helping out as well. The mouse went under my bed again. We looked for it and couldn't be found.

I started to vacuum to make our house a little cleaner. I went into my room and the mouse ran to my closet. We had him trapped. He get caught in a little shelf. Tess got a bag and he ran into it. We got him. We ran down the street about ten houses and let him free.

I CALLED the landlord to update the problem...TEXT back.....

Wednesday night I went and got my moms carpet cleaner. I was sick of being in this mess. We started to clean. Our other roommate had warned us of another mouse but we didn't know where it was. Our house is four floors, so I started in the basement on the bottom level. I moved the beanbag and two more mice were dead. We cleaned them up and I started to vacuum again right when I started, a LIVE mouse ran across the floor....

I SCREAMED.... Tess to the rescue. We had him cornered and he ran into the bag again. This time he wasn't getting away. We sadly ran him over with the car. Good thing I believe in Heaven because I know that is where he is going.

I CALLED the landlord once again to report the problem... TEXT back. Do people not know in the world that when someone calls they want a phone call back? especially when there is a problem? I don't get it. We got in a stupid argument over text message. I told him next time just call me back and we won't have things get lost in communication. THROUGH TEXT MESSAGE.

I will admit... I LOVE TEXT MESSAGE. I think it is a great way to stay in touch with friends... but when you need to be a professional with someone... CALL THEM back...

I will keep you updated on the whole mouse situation. Hopefully it is being taken care of....

XOXO
