Finally a New Year!!

I was reading my sisters blog and decided since I am home alone with Lilly on a Saturday night it would be a perfect time to write on my blog. Since it is a new year and its tradition to write down some goals for the new year I better get on that. My first goal I am breaking as I write this is being more social. I am a homebody and would rather watch a movie in my warm bed then go out. However, this is the year that will change! (hopefully) My next goal is to start my career or find a job I love. I like working at Joann's but I don't want that as my career so when my contract ends in April I'm hoping to move out of Orem (to where I don't know yet) and find a new job. Thats basically all my goals! Oh and of course work out more often (which I hate doing) but it has to be done! My other goal is to win my dream home, which I am entering twice a day and praying a lot, 40 more days and I can stop obsessing about it!

Mangos

I finally got my roommate to take me to Costco to get my favorite things....mango slices and it was the best 12 bucks I have ever spent!!

We are going to watch Footloose tonight at the $3 movie theater and I'm so excited because all the concessions are only $1!! I'm excited about the movie too but more about getting popcorn and a slush!!

FREE!!

School is done and I am FREE no more school ever again!! I told myself that when school gets over I'll be able to do things that I've been meaning to do in a long time...such as blog and do all my crafts. If you know me I am a little obsessed with pinterest and have gotten my sisters and mom obsessed with it too. If you haven't looked at it do! I love looking at all the crafts ideas that is on there as well as all the recipes. On my computer I have a file of crafts, decorating ideas, quotes, and recipes, and I intend to do all of them (someday). The one that I have found recently that I have been wanting to do with some of my pants is turn them into skinny jeans. Well my first day of no school I finally got to turning a pair of my pants into skinny jeans. It was really easy and turned out way cute! I even took a picture so I could blog about it! I have so many other cute ideas that I can't wait to do!

So since I haven't been blogging for a long time I guess I better catch you all up on my life..its pretty boring and I haven't done anything exciting. I have been looking for a job and a new place to live. I'm still obsessed about moving into a house, but I no longer am going to buy one just rent. Now I've scaled it down to a townhouse...however, there aren't very many cute ones for rent around here. Hopefully by April when I have to move out there will be more cute ones!

That's all that's going on..not very exciting however I'm very excited about Christmas, because I get the week after Christmas off so I can stay home longer than a weekend and I'm super excited!!

Where have I been!

A lot of things have been on my mind lately and its stressing the poop out of me! And no I'm not going to move back to Richfield like last time. Here is a list of all the stress in my life!

• I was offered a job in a different town that was said will be available for me sometime next year before I left for my trip. I can back and they still hadn't made any progress. That was a month with no word or anything. I was really setting my mind to it, because if I do it I would be moving to a new city completely alone. I have family in that town but I wouldn't have anyone to move in with.
• So stresser number 2 I want a house so so so bad. I probably want a house more than I want a husband...I know that will come but a house seems more in my control. So I've been looking at houses in this area and there are some really cute ones. Its made me really really excited to buy one...ok I admit that I just really want one to decorate...I can't wait to be able to tile, tear up carpet knock down walls. I can't wait! Ask my family that's all I talk about is moving into a house!
• Since this job offer was going to take forever to get into place I decided to find a new job. $8.20 an hour is just not cutting it! Specially when I have my bachelors degree I have to be making more!
• I told my family not to tell anyone about this, because I said I would never ever try this. However, my roommate talked me into it and I decided to give it a try. Internet dating....there I said it! I admit I signed up and decided to give it a month to try. Its not going anywhere, none of the guys I message are responding back to me...so that's a little let down.

Since all of these stresses are wearing me down I decided to put them all on the back burner. I'm going to keep my job because even though that store won't open up for a while I am still getting manager training. I'm not going to worry about moving, buying a house, or getting a new job until I finish school the end of this year. By then hopefully things with that job will work out or I'll be able to find another job away from Provo/Orem. I just really want to live outside of Provo/Orem! With that said I'm going to only worry about school! So wish me luck with school because this is the last semester I will ever be doing for the rest of my life!

New Recipe!!

If you have never gone to pinterest do it!!! I have found way cute decorating ideas as well as some good recipes....this one I tried last night its....PRETZEL BITS! and super easy!All you needs is:

-Texas size Rhodes Rolls

-Butter

-Parmesan Cheese

0r

-Cinnamon and Sugar

Directions:

• Cute rolls into 4ths and place on a greased baking sheet to let the raise!
• While rolls are rising get ready a pan with a paper towel and a regular kitchen towel underneath that. Turn on oven to 375 degrees
• Bring a big pot to a boil..after rolls are risen place about 10 into pot and let sit for 45 seconds
• Place on paper towel and let dry for a minute..its ok if they look shriveled and gross
• Carefully place onto the greased baking sheet and place in oven
• Cook for 15 min...shake around during baking once
• Roll in Butter and then the choice of topping you want either Parmesan cheese sprinkled with garlic salt or cinnamon and sugar

They were very easy and very good....now i'm off to Seven Peaks!

What trip??

So sorry I haven't posted about my 2 week trip...but it seems I don't have any pictures! Jerika took all the pictures and I haven't loaded them on my computer yet. If you want a little preview head over to Jamie or Jerika's blogs....Someday i'll get pictures and blog about it..I think it will be more exciting for me to look back and remember it! In other news still working and waiting for school to start so it can be over with!

New Project!

Here is my new project that I got from the DI...can anyone guess what it is and how much I paid for it...ok my mother paid for it? It is a sewing table (great huh) and it was only $10.00. I'm super excited to paint it and start using it. However, I have to wait until I get a house, because I think my roommates are going to kill me if I bring anymore furniture home.

I also bought a little bench thing; however, I can't find the picture in my phone. So I'll have to post pictures of that later. I also have to Yukon this weekend up here in Orem, so I might go a little crazy...I threatened my dad and brother that the garage is now mine to fill-up. I am proud to say that I put my first furniture item in there today (without my brother knowing, he is at camping with the young mens...we won't be very happy when he gets home. He carried my other purchase down to my room so it wouldn't have to go in the garage!) I also am still on the lookout for a dresser. Since I was home I went to the DI everyday in search for one with no luck. I'm going yard selling on Saturday in Payson and if that doesn't turn up anything I have my dad on the lookout in Richfield at the yard sells...Wish me luck!!!
