Well, Life, we have known eachother another year. And what a year it has been. One year ago I was in Cancun, Mexico on senior trip with my bff's (minus Kylee) Jenni Jensen, Taylor Howell, and Amber Williamson.
Cancun was most likely the FUNNEST trip i have ever taken! oh the memories, we just kept Jai Ho'in and left there with no regrets. I can't count on one hand how many times people thought we were drunk when we hadn't had a drop. The time when Amber slipped at the top of the waterslide then had to wear a bandaid on her back getting a tanline from it. Then Taylor limboing and after you limbo they give you a drink of tequila (mexican water) then she just said "i've already had too much!" haha. Then Jenni getting up and asking the performers at Xel-Ha if she could play their steel drums (we were literally the only people sitting by them and dancing to their music). Then the great beach party where i spent most of the time with Nick Fichtner, he was wasted, but only leaving his wobbly side to get on the mini stage to do the Cotton Eye'd Joe, where i rolled my ankle on the clap-jump causing myself and 2 drunk girls to fall over. But then the people thought i was the drunk one. haha... but the best memory was going down the waterslide at Senor Frogs, where they didn't tell us it only led to an opening and 10' drop into a 4.5' deep salt watery bay, 2.5' of it was pure mossy seaweed.. then to get out we had to climb a disgustingwooden stair ladder that had moss all over it. Our last day, Michael Jackson died.
That summer was a pretty mellow summer, me and Kylee spent most of our time longboarding and living the dream. Nothing too big or exciting. We talked a lot about how we would spend the next year in St. George. CRAZY!!! I never thought that day would come, now look... what was supposed to be only a year has now turned into 2, which begins in August. I wouldn't live with anyone besides my best friend Kylee because we had the BEST year. So many things have happened, it was definitely a year of growing up. 
But not too much growing up because that's not very fun. Never too old to have a girls night including: pizza, putting on crazy makeup and outfits, going out and doorbell ditching friends and crushes (only to find out later that you doorbell ditched your crushes neighbor), not being able to find your crushes house thus, stopping at maverick face makeup and all to ask where that address is. Mamma Mia!! then building forts and watching School of Rock. Only to be woken up at 3 a.m. by your friends (whom we doorbell ditched) lighting firecrackers on our front porch. I seriously thought it was gunshot, I have never been so scared in all my life. 
Yep, St. George has definitely known the best times of my life. I LOVE Cache Valley, that is my home, but St. George definitely has a special place in my heart. I have made more REALLY GOOD friends in my year there than in all my life! I would name all the them but i am afaid i will forget a name, but it's not like anyone is reading this besides Kylee so i dont think it would effect them if i forgot their name haha they would never know.
But, anyways we've met alot of GREAT people! Even if the introduction was nothing less than creepy. Aka, being followed after the Allred concert then being asked by a group of complete stranger boys "What are you guys doing tonight?" hahaha but they ended up being the COOLEST boys ever, only downfall is they are from up north aka my hometown haha. They are our North Boys and we are their St. G girls.Then there was work, Kylee worked at Pizza Factory Express on Sunset :) haha and i worked at Krave Frozen Yogurt. We both became very good friends with the others work family. Nothing like weighing yogurts, washing spoons, cutting fruit and candy, and being with friends haha.
Then the boy life. Oh Geeze. St. George has the wierdest males in all the world. hahah for some reason they all have girlfriends but just keep that quiet for a while. haha... so much to say about this area, but yet no words. Just WOW! St. George held my first kiss and also turned around to be my first real bummer haha. It definitely sucked, and the horrible thing was I saw the gf everywhere. But you know what it's all good :) Everything happens for a reason. But, just like in everyones life there have been good times and hard times, in the end me and Kylee were always there for each other and all that crap was just crap, shovel it into the barrell and dump it somewhere else. If you leave it there all it's gunna do is rot and stink up the place which now doesn't just effect you but everyone else around you. No reason to linger. Not a big deal. I have had a talking to Kylee's boo and she's had a talk with mine. We've got eachother's back. And right while that crap was happening I turned my focus to something else :)
I found that hiking is a great way to divert the mind from all that crap tho haha... I LOVE HIKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is a GREAT way to Get in touch with your inner-indian. 
I also got my life saved, not in a figuratively way, because of my new found passion. I went with some friends up to hike the Red Moutain, which was SOO much fun, but as i told one of my other friends Sidney Harrison (who also almost died there) she said "Don't do it, you will die!" haha on the way down I somehow found myself on the edge of a cliff holding onto a wall made of sandstone, aka very breakable. As i was hanging on i found that my handhold wasn't attached to the moutain, thus a boulder was coming loose about to fall on me and my foot holes were giving. This is especially scary when your scared of heights. While i'm standing there afraid to move my hero, Andy Smith, came over and in about 30 seconds grabbed my wrist and kind of helped pull/throw me off to the side. The amazing part is he stood on, the edge while doing this without holding onto anything. All he did was dig his toes into the sandy cliff. He is amazing! haha. 
Year, look at where you have sent me now, Connecticut - the COMPLETE other end of the country!! WHAT!!?? i never thought i would end up here or ever end up anywhere but Utah my whole life. But i'm glad i came, it has definitely been another growing situation and i have learned that nannying is the BEST birth control. well, it doesnt actually stop that whole cycle from occuring but it definitely will make you not want kids for a long time... a VERY long time. for the first 6 weeks I was basically the community babysitter. I babysat Tae, Julia, Sarah (1,6, and 9) and Christian, 3. All of these kids are awesome and i love them! Now i am a live-in nanny for the Martino's with Gabriela, 6, and Sophia, 9. they are a handful indeed. But the things they say are priceless.
I love this family and they are so good to me. The girls are adorable, but very sassy at times. It's wierd to think i have already been here 6 weeks and I only have 6 weeks left! Then i will be back home for 2 days and in St. George on August 18th aka the day before my birthday. Crazy talk. Basically every weekend = a trip to New York City. It is cool and all but again, i am a West coast girl... this place is too big for me haha. But it's cool to see. I like the little town of New Canaan, CT, sometimes i feel a little clostrophobic (spelled wrong) because literally there are walls of trees all around me. But it's beautiful, i can't deny that! Nanny is pretty great too, it has it's downfalls tho, like when you have to get angry at the little kids because they are fighting. then they think i'm the bad guy when really i know someone is going to end up getting hurt so i'm trying to prevent that. makes me definitely respect my parents a little more, heaven knows we were not easy haha. I love it, i love the experience i am getting, but i am ready to go back to Utah. Well, if you know me, you know that where ever i am, Kylee will either soon be there, has just left and i'm about to leave to where ever she is, or she is in the other room. so, i would like to have my:
Ode de Kylee.(dont be mad at the picture, it's funny)
