Aunt Edna

Just two short years ago Aunt Edna became our guardian angel! This summer I was in a summer workshop and decided to write a poem about her. I miss her so much! I love going to the cemetery and seeing Aunt Edna! I miss her dearly!

Aunt Edna
October 18, 1951 to September 11, 2007

sitting on the grass
next to where your body rest
I begin to think of what you mean to me

Once in a while,
Someone comes along,
Someone who just naturally
makes everyone feel a little happier,

Aunt Edna, you’re that someone to me.
you gave me a new perspective,
On what really matters in life.

Even though you were alone,
You always had me,
and I always had you,

There are things you’ve said to me
I’ll always remember,
and ways you’ve helped me
I’ll never forget.

The times we spend together,
are moments I wait for
They stay with me forever and

leave me waiting,
to the next time,
when I see you again

and then I reverently walk away

Quote of the day




Chels, Ami, and I have been telling quotes of the day to each other these last couple of days. this is the quote I found today and LOVE it!

"Most people are too busy living life to ever put life into their living." Author (Unknown)

Seriously I think it is SO great! We all need to remember to put life in our living when life gets crazy. Live life to the fullest!

09/09/09



I think days like 09/09/09 are really cool. seriously all the same number to tell what day it is? that is cool. i ALWAYS wanted to get married on 08/08/08 or 09/09/09... I thought it would be so cool... lately I have been shooting for 12/12/12... I think it is going to really work out for me. Just something I am working towards... A girl can dream right?

Locked my keys in the car.... again.. :(

Ok so anyone who knows me know i have classic EMO moments... yet another one happened last night. i was in California all weekend (I will blog about it soon) After the weekend i realized i hadn't worked out for a long time (four days and ate like crap on the trip). i got back to Logan around 9:00, I unpacked and then decided to go running.

since it was late at night I thought i would be more safe if i went to Old Main stairs and just ran up and down them. when I got there I always run with Pepper spray just in case... i mean i know i live in Logan Utah but you never know what will happen. I got all my stuff together, pepper spray, water, cell phone... and than just put my keys down and locked the car...

Right after i did it I just thought to myself of course this is happening.... Classic EMO. So I didn't really worry about it. I mean what was the worst thing that could happen, not have a car for a couple days til I figured it out? I ran the stairs and because i was a little upset about the car i ran then five times... Which is AMAZING. I mean if any of you know Old Main stairs this is an accomplishment. I usually only run them three times, if I am lucky.

After that i didnt really know what to do. I called Mandi and she told me, to call the campus police. They unlock your car for FREE! Thank you Officer Jones for making my night all better!!! He was so kind. I got into my car and everything was all better... Great way for me to remember I am back in the "real world.." the magic is gone. :(

PARK CITY!!!!

This weekend was a great one with the family. My two sisters are in town, my sister in law came down with the kids and it was SO fun to be all together. We went up to Park City for the weekend and stayed in the West GAte lakes resort. Of course my mom got a killer deal on some rooms. We had a blast together. We played tennis, went running, swimming, and of course we got to ride the Alpine Slides, it seriously brought back so many memories of childhood, we would read books all summer long just so we could go on the Alpine Slides. They are incredible. We had a great weekend all together and I just look forward to Christmas when we are all together again!

500 days of summer



WARNING... If you have NOT seen the movie 500 days of summer you should probably stop reading now... because i am going to write my feelings down about the movie.... and I will tell you the ending of the movie... so i would love for you to continue reading, you will just know the end of the movie if you do so...




okay so seriously how could these two not end up together... I went into this movie thinking "ok this is another chick flick that i am just going to love and I will watch it over and over again." I just don't know how I feel about it..

the movie starts out with main girl and boy meeting each other. they tell you at the beginning of the movie this is NOT a love story... but you just forget that right after they tell you because HELLO every girl wants it to be a love story...

so we continue on in the movie with these two falling completely in LOVE with each other. They have a blast together, seriously they are prefect for each other. They laugh, cry, compliment each other, they are the couple/ relationship you want to be in. But the girl ALWAYS says "I don't want a relationship," she is not ready for one. but they spend ALL of there time together, so clearly they are in a relationship and she is just denying it. and who is "READY" for a relationship anyways?

she breaks up with him and he is just BROKEN... like he doesn't even know what to do with himself..(he should come to Broken Heart?) He NEVER sees her and then at a wedding he runs into her... ALL the feelings come back and they are both SO happy. And I was JUST SO HAPPY about it...

then the next scene(which is my favorite scene, if you saw it you know why) they are at a party and he finds out, out of NO WHERE, she is engaged. Like how broken could you be and than she has to be getting married. Seriously you just feel for him. and why was she SO nice to him at the wedding? Playing games with his heart...(quit playing games with my heart... BSB for LIFE)

He leaves the party... BROKEN of course and than what? He gets himself all back together and OF COURSE, like leave the poor boy alone, but NO she has to be at their "special spot" when he is there. She of course comes over and talks to him, not ever thinking about him, like "oh maybe he is having a hard time, i guess i will go talk to him." seriously i am just surprised it is the girl, not the boy.

Anyways, in the end of the movie he asks her, "How could you just get married?" she says, "because i found what i was waiting for" (or something along those lines) it is pretty sad at the moment, than i started to think about it, she didn't just settled for him, she loved him of course but she knew, she needed better for herself, although i was really sad for him, and still am a little bit, (best part is Chels is as well, we both had a rough night about it) but she is happy.

BUT the boy is even happier, because he waited until he was over her and moved on, to another amazing girl. I still don't know how I feel about them not ending up together, but I do LOVE the movie.

until next time,

xoxo
