Happy Halloween!!!

Every year at school, they have a halloween parade and the kids get to walk around the gym and then the entire school to show off their costumes.  The office staff and the Janitors love to get into participate and I just have a couple pictures of the great event.

New Hairstyle

It has been way too long, since I wrote last, but in my defense, I did say you might miss me for a while because of school and work.  I have been very busy, but it seems like I am just very happy these days.  I don't have a lot of stress because I like what I do each day.  I have been busy with work like normal, but school is going great and I am already over half way done with my second semester.  Only 3 and a half more semesters to go.  WAHOO!!!  The purpose of this post is not actually to tell you that I am alive still, but really because I made a dramatic change to my hairstyle.  I thought this would NEVER happen again because of a childhood nightmare, but some people at work told me I should do it and I finally decided that it would be okay.  I am posting about it because my friend's dad really wanted to see it and told me to blog about it.  So here you go dad #2.  :)

This is my hair when I actually wash it, blow dry it, straighten it, and then flip it out, either with the straightener or my curling iron.  I like it best this way.  I got my school (work) pictures done this way and they actually turned out really cute.  This is the way I do it most days, unless I do nothing.

This is my hair when I just wash it, put a little Gel in it and then blow dry it with my diffuser.  I don't like it as much as straight, but it is fast and easy.

I told the lady, I need something different.  Something I can do straight or curly, but also be able to put it in a pony tail if I want.  She asked me how long, and I told her to start cutting it off at the shoulders and then chop away for some layers, then she thinned it out a lot which is wonderful.  I really do love it.  I am glad I have great friends that tell me what makes me look good.  

Here I am!

Blogging in my free time, what is this?  Don't get too confused, just because I am blogging doesn't mean I have free time, it just means I am still alive. :)  I have been so busy it seems since about May 26th.  The week before that I was in Nauvoo with my parents and had a lot of fun.  I was able to go to the Temple and do some family names, from baptisms to sealings.  What a blessing!  Then on May 26th, I started Massage Therapy school part-time at night.  so I have been working during the day and going to school at night.  My classes are Monday thru Thursday, 7 to 10:30pm so I don't get much time for anything else.  Luckily, I like my job, for the most part. 

I got my very own massage table, but I haven't even used it yet.  I told my roommate I would give her a massage this weekend.  I absolutely love school.  I was really worried about anatomy, but it turns out it is my favorite class, however, I like most of my classes.  I am almost done with the first semester, so a lot of homework is getting handed out which doesn't give me a lot of time for anything else.  I was really trying to get out there with the activities in my ward, but since most of them are at night during the week, I can't really make it. 

I have made a goal to have 100% attendance at school, so there are no excuses why I don't learn the material.  I also want to get a 4.000 GPA, so we will just have to see how that goes for me as time moves on.  This is a 1 year program, so I should stop being busy at the end of May 2010.  I hope you all don't miss me until then.

Last week, I was able to go to Billings, Montana and see my sister, Brother-in-law, Niece, and Nephew all sealed together.  What a wonderful experience that was, and of course I cried like a baby.  Hey, What else did you expect from me. :)  Then the next day was the 4th, which was awesome, I spent it with all my cousins in Wyoming.  The only thing that was missing was tubing with the Bators.  Then I had to come back to reality for work and I have never been so mad at the alarm than I have this week.  I don't really have any right to complain, because I know other people get up like this everyday, but dang, I am tired!!!  I can't wait until I can sleep in before I have to go to work.  Only two more weeks.  Wahoo!
