One of the best books I've ever read...


Ok, so I just barely (like 20 minutes ago) finished a REALLY REALLY good book!!! It's called "Yearbook", by Allyson Braithwaite Condie. It's hard to explain really... but it's a GREAT story about these high school students getting through the year. And, surprisingly, the LDS religion is mentioned quite a lot in the lives of these teenagers. It always gave me a great and peaceful feeling everytime I read it, because it's like I could read a really great story that I understand and really like it and could still be actually kind of learning more about other peoples' perspectives on the church. I'm sorry if I'm being confusing... haha. Well I really really REALLY think some of you guys need to read it especially if your my age... WOW it's really good. Oh ya, and there's also a sequel I'm gonna have to read but I do not know what it's called so.. ya I'll be working on that:)


Read "Yearbook" it's the BEST!!!!

tHe FaIr!






So... last night I went to a fair with my 3 friends, Kenzie, Macey, and Sierra. It was really really fun!!! But there was a slight mishap.. hehe.






Sooooo, we all went on this way fun CRAZY ride called the Graviton and it's hard to explain but basically you spin so fast somethin happens to the gravity, and it makes you like stuck! Like it feels like your literally glued to the mat you lay on! It was really fun, but we all felt a little woozy:) (Picture of the Gravitron in ACTION!!!!)




But hey, that was only the first ride! So we went on ANOTHER crazy ride called the Zipper, (almost identical to the Rock-O-Plane at Lagoon but taller and there is no brake!!!) So pretty much it's like this wayyy fast ferris wheel but the things you sit in spin and do flips and all that while you go round and round! (I know, makes you sick to think about right?)
(This is The Zipper... freaky huh?!)





Well... after that... the man opened Macey and Sierras' cart and Macey bolts out and..well... BLEAH. We were all, including Macey, cracking up though. While coughing and sputtering poor Macey wasn't even fazed! "That was awesome!" she yelled as soon as she caught her breath. We laughed for such a long time and it was soooo funny despite how sick it was. Haha.





Well she felt better, but she didn't want to risk losing the rest of her dinner on the next ride, which I didn't blame her, so I sat out with her while Kenzie and Sierra went on another wild ride. After that our tickets were all already gone, so we decided to leave and go to Sierra's and sleepover. We watched "10 Things I Hate About You" (WAYYYY CUTE MOVIE!!!!!), ate junkfood, and had soooo much fun.







So that's my story of last night:)

Most loved- hated movie I've EVER seen!


Ok, So last night me and my older sister Hannah decided to rent a movie at Redbox. We picked out "27 Dresses" which I had never seen before so I was excited! It seriously was so loved- hated by me! Like, I loved it, it was cute, but OMG some of the characters just PISSED ME OFF!!! Haha. Seriously though! Like for those of you that have seen it, Tess drove me absolutely insane. Ask my sister even! I was telling off the TV and one time I even through my socks at the TV when I got really upset. But is was still really good, like the story I guess and all.


So... I'm not really sure how I felt about "27 Dresses". I love/hated it:)

I'm Ashamed.

Ok, I'm soooo ashamed of myself for being such a slacker this summer on my posts!!! So much has happened!!!!

1. Girl's camp and Oakcrest:
Both GREAT experiences. I can't even begin to tell you how much those 2 weeks my testimony grew!!! It was awesome. Girl's camp was better than Oakcrest for me cuz at Oakcrest the activities weren't that great and we didn't get very much free time. Plus we slept in terrible bunks. And they gave us no food. Ok so they did. But hardly any!!! Seriously, they were such small portions!! But hey, I did make a lot of friends, my testimony grew more than I thought possible, and I did have a lot of fun at times. OH YA, and I met Haylee T. there too for the first time! She's way cool:) AND, it was my bff Hailey's birthday while we were there! It was really fun. I think she had a good time. I did:) And Girl's camp, oh man that was the best!!! We went up to one of my leader's cabin in the mountains and it was beautiful. Our theme was "Be your own kind of beautiful", so we learned all about inner beauty and all that. It was a way good experience.

2. Cousins & Family and MY 13th BIRTHDAY!!!
Well, my mom's side of the family come down in the summer usually, and they're always there for my birthday on the 25th of July, which is always the best!! I always have sooo much fun with my cousins. For my birthday we went to Seven Peaks and that was SOOOO frickin fun!! Then we were at my house and I opened the bestest presents ever! I got a new phone!! I am in love with it!! Also I got a giftcard, a book, 133$ altogether in bday money, anddd... I think that's it. It was awesome!

3. Misc....
I have had a great summer. I have done stuff with friends and spent time with my family a lot. I have done stuff like... boating, seen HSM at Capitol Theatre, shopping, seeing movies, went to a Salt Lake ReAL game, been to parties, chillin, and definitely trying to make the most of this summer. And it's definitely been great:)

(Next post is just gonna be pictures)

BORED


OH my gosh I am so bored! This is how my summer has been besides Mexico and Chicago and friends. The days drag like nooo other with nothing to do. I'm home with my little sis and her friend. I've tried everyone pretty much and they are all at Lagoon cuz its Stake Lagoon Day but nooooo my parents said we can't and I have been looking forward to this day since... last time I went which was 2 years ago!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :'( cry cry!!!! UGHHHH I NEED SOMETHING TO DOOOOOOO! At least I go to Girls Camp tomorrow. That will be fun I think. Except that we're meeting at 8 in the morning. Psh. That sux. But it is a lot better than sitting at my house all day waiting for the phone to ring and when it does, it's for mom. Psh. WOW what should I do?!?!?!

BFF







Wow, I just wanted to say right now how AWESOME it is to have a best friend. I wouldn't trade mine for the world. (Hailey. And our names aren't the only thing we have in common.) I really seriously don't know what I would do without her. I haven't seen her too much this summer cuz we're both really busy so I miss her sooooo much!!! But we're going to a camp together in a few weeks and it will be so fun. I can't wait to see her then!

I LOVE YA HAILEY!!!!!

Ok I definitely think I should blog pictures of my 2 summer vacations so far, Mexico and Chicago. Ya, I never really blogged about Chicago and I'm not gonna lie I don't wanna explain everyday of it so here's a summary. Me and my mom went to Chicago together for a family reunion! It was really fun! And usually I'm not too fond of family reunions cuz I hate when like all these people you don't even know like come up to you and start talking to you like they have known you all their lives and you don't even know their names... ya I hate that. But this reunion was actually so much fun! I was with my cousins and we met our 1st cousin twice removed and she was really cool. We had so much fun! So after all the reunion stuff we went and stayed downtown and did lots of cool stuff like museums, aquariums, cool restaraunts, and whatnot. So ya, the pictures are above... starting with ones from Chicago:)
