BYU IDOL

Disclaimer: this blog post is coming from an Aggie who lived in Logan for four years. only going to Utah State events. Knowing the people at the event. :)

I never went to any events at BYU other than sporting growing up... So last night was a real treat for me. I like BYU and have always been a fan (until I became an Aggie...)

Well last night was MEMORABLE for this Aggie. BYU IDOL!!! On Wednesday I usually go to Institute but last night I called my friend Jenny in my ward and asked if she was going. She said "No. I am going to BYU Idol. Do you want to come?"

I love events and like to support so I thought I am in!!!

Jenny came to get me and we were headed down to BYU IDOL!

I walked in and thought. Emo HAVE AN OPEN MIND. The first person got up to sing...

CHURCH SONG? Ok this is the lord's University... I guess that is okay.

Second song...

CHURCH SONG? I now felt like I was 14 and it was EFY all over again... I like church song... I just thought it was going to be different.

Third song...

MY GIRL!!! It was getting better. I love that song.

Jenny sitting next to me leads over and says "that guys is HOT!!!" hurry and pulls out her gum wrapper... She quickly writes her number down, goes and hands it to his friend and sits back down...

Wait a min... What just happened?

I was so confused on what just happened... she just went up and gave her number to some stranger? WHAT? I am SO not like that so I was COMPLETELY confused. She just looks at me... We will see where that goes? WOW Jenny way to go girl!

My favorite performer... sang HALO. She was amazing! She totally had my vote!

The JUDGES. now they are something we can talk about... I bet if I knew them it would hav been funnier (is that even a word)... remember who Simon is on American Idol... Well he is known for his rude comments. SO if BYU IDOL is happening you need someone with a RUDE comment. Right?

Wrong? NONE of the Judges said anything mean... EVERYTHING was POSITIVE. I couldn't believe it. I am a positive person, who likes positive people... BUT you need to be honest with the contests as well.

The MC I forgot to talk about him... One of those guys who doesn't know what he is talking about so just tries to make an easy laugh... Just laughing at himself the WHOLE time. I don't think I laughed at him once. Do you know how easy it is to make me laugh? That is how bad he was...

All around it was a great night. Great event that I will probably go again! Thanks BYU for making this Aggie entertained for the night!

XOXO,

Emo

If we were in Florida what would we be doing today....

Chels, Ash and I LOVE to play the game... If we were in Florida today like we were two years ago... What would we be doing.

******************My day :)

If we were still at Disney I would have got up and worked out. Come over to your house to wake you too up. We would then stock on facebook, talk to Ashley Hall on speaker, and hear what your crazy roommates did the night before. I would go home and get my swimming suit on. I would come back over and we would plan what resort we wanted to go to. I would want to go to the Yatch and Beach club to lay out on the beach, Ash would want to go to Taco Bell, and Chels would just make up late wherever we were going. We would go to Yatch and Beach. We would lay in the sun FOR HOURS. Until i would get up and say "I think I am getting really sunburned..." Ash would go get something at the snack bar and Chels and I would eat it. We would lay out again for a while then go into EPCOT to eat at Mexico. In our swimming suit cover ups. We would all get the same thing and just sit and eat. After I would make us go to Norway to "see where my little brother is living." We would then go over to MK. Ash would make us watch Spectro Magic parade at seven. we would get ice cream from Main Street. Then just people watch until Wishes! I would make us go to ride "THE WILDEST RIDE IN THE WILDERNESS" Ash would hit me because i would keep saying this. We would have jackets on so we aren't just in our swimming suite cover ups. Chels would be wearing my white one. I would be wearing something of Chels, and Ash would be wearing her Jean jacket that goes great with everything. We would walk past Peter Pan and say "I love that ride." Ash and I would both be caring Chels stuff in our bags. we would stop every 30 mins to take a picture. I would OF COURSE be in the middle of them all. We would look at our bus schedules thinking what bus should we take? We find one and head down to the tunnel to take it. We would get on the bus. Ash would pull her sadoko (SP) book out. chels would fall asleep, and I would be focused on not getting car sick. We would get home and walk to your apartment to check our emails and start a movie. We would plan what time each of us worked the next day and when we could lay out again. I would leave after a little bit to go to bed. Ending our day!


******************** Chels's day :)

If we were at disney we would have woken up to Emo making us pancakes. Then we would be walking out to the pool, swim suits on, sun glasses on, emo applying sun screen, me grabbing twilight, and ash rinning form building to building looking for a pop machine with orange soda. At the pool we would sit and take frequent dips. Today we have chosen to hit up MGM studios. We eat dinner at the 50s diner before rushing to do one more time of toy story mania before the beauty and the beast show... then we grab some pop corn and head to Fantasmic for me, we watch it then hit the pavement running trying to beat the crowds to catch our bus home...


************************* Ash's day! :)

okay.. so if we were in florida today i would be waking up to chelsea getting text message after text message on her phone from emo. these would not wake chelsea up, only me. emo would have the great idea to go to the OUTLETS, but first we would go to the pool. i would whip out my suduko book and a bottle of orange soda, emo would be on the phone to one of her sisters and chels would most definitely be wearing a swimsuit with tops and bottoms that did not match. and we would invite rod to come but all he would say would be "oh my gosh, you girls are annoying." After a quick trip to the pool we would go to the outlets where EMO would shop away at the Gap.. we would then decide to go to EPCOT, so we would pick out a bus time to get to the commons. we would be planning our whole trip around this time, but somehow chelsea would make us late and we would be running our butts off to get there on time, and we would make it with seconds to spare. on the bus we would talk about the cute international boys and we would go straight to the countries where we would stalk chelsea's latest crush in FRANCE. Chels would get a ham and cheese sandwich and take off the ham. i would eat a whole french baguette and emo would get some desert. we would then walk to the UK to see the British Invasion, stop in mexico to SHOP and visit Norway to ride Maelstrom. Lastly we would end up in Mexico to eat our FAVORITE dinner. we would sit and talk until illuminations came on and then high tail it back to the bus stop, because it is WILD back there at night. when we got home, we would stuff our face with emo's homemade popcorn even though we were so full already. while stuffing our faces we would decide to go to MK tomorrow for a little castle party action before work. i would go to sleep with a smile on my face because i was working the best job, and living with the best friends.

Miss my two best friends!!!

XOXO

GIRLS WEEKEND!!!

Last weekend my mom took us to FLORIDA!!! We went last year and we decided why not for this year. SADLY my two sister in laws didn't come this year but they were VERY missed. We had SUCH a good time.

My mom and I arrived later Thursday night. KA and MJ got there mid afternoon so they went to dinner with Charlie (my best friend I met in my ward in Florida). They picked us up and the fun started. I had party in the USA playing when we got into the car. The people around us looked at me kinda funny.... That happens all the time... I don't know why?

Friday morning we didn't get up until ten, went for a jog. I LOVE running with my sisters because they make me faster.

After we decided to go swimming and take naps in the sun. The hard rock hotel pool was AMAZING! WE all LOVED it! We got all ready and toke this picture to show we did get ready at least once this trip...

We went over to the Disney's boardwalk to rent bikes... We saw this one and HAD to get it. Seriously the BEST 22 dollars we spent on the trip. We laughed the WHOLE time. KA and I were in the back and up the hills we wouldn't help at all... MJ was pretty upset...

After biking we were ready for DINNER. We went to Peaches and Creme. One of my FAVORITE places from when I lived in Florida. Seriously SO good.

Saturday we were at DISNEY all day long. Three parks in one day! MAGICAL day! I was wearing my pedometer.... WE WALKED 26,642 steps.... That is 13.3 miles people.... needless to say we were all ready to sleep that night. We got to see both fireworks shows, see all our favorite shows, and ride our favorite rides. GOOD thing I still have connections to get us in for free! :) It was VERY cold and rainy... that is why we look our best!

Sunday we went to church then went to see the temple. After we went to the BEST Italian food restaurant. SO good! That night we went and walked around the different resorts. Saw the firework show from the beach and OR COURSE got ice cream. We HAVE TO HAVE THAT.

Monday before we flew out we had to go to the outlet mall. I spent TOO much MONEY but I am loving my new clothes. I LOVE the OUTLETS in Florida. Good thing I don't live there now... I would be broke.... Thanks Mom, KA, and MJ for the AMAZING vacation. See you next year!

XOXO
