Work

Sitting here
at a place that is almost like home to me.
Familiar faces, familiar sounds, familiar smells.

I feel as if I am in fishbowl
watching the whole world revolve around me,
{swimming} in, and out, and in, and out.
I watch as the world passes by,
so much commotion so many people passing by,
as I still just sit here in my fish bowl.

I see people embracing,
people crying, people who haven't seen their loved ones for a long while.
I remember being the people outside of this little fish bowl and I wonder
did they see me? Did they see our excited embrace, did they watch the tears?
And think the same things I now think when I see.

The cycle is never ending, keeps going in circles,
day by day, hour by hour, all the same stories,
the people start to blend in, different faces but somehow all the same.

I begin to forget the stories, forget the embraces, forget the yelling, and the screaming.

In one ear and out the other. Day by day, hour by hour.

It happens.

St. George

I love my life,
I love my family,
I know that God loves me!

I flew down to St. George for the weekend,
spent some time with my family,
met some new friends,
got my first sunburn of the season,
played with my lovely neice Sophia,
tried something new,
didn't like it,

purple flags and my new buddy Chris,
tears of joy, tears of sadness,
remembering good times,
bike rides in the dark,
Dear John,
I love my life and my family.
Thank you Jesus, I love you.

The {endless} world of possibilities

Sometimes my mind starts to {wonder}.
Wonder what God has planned for me,
wonder what I will turn out to be,
wonder what I will be doing in my life 5 years from now....ten years from now?
I can't help but wonder.
I am happy.
I am happy how my life is right now,
but I can't help but wonder, what else is there?
What else to see!
I am so excited for the things I will see!
I cannot wait for those days to come,
when I will be seeing and doing things that I can't even imagine doing right now.
I am happy where I have come and where I have been so far.
Thank you Lord, Jesus, for guiding me through this journey.
I can't wait for the exciting road to come that I have yet to travel.
The possibilities are endless!
And I can't wait!


I know the road may be windy,
it may be smooth,
it may have some bumps,
it may even have some cracks {at times},
that I may think I will never get out of,
but, I know it will all work out in the end.

And,
I am ready for it!

start paving another one"

Get me out of {HERE}

Longing: prolonged unfulfilled desire or need.

Hoping: Desiring; being optimistic toward;

Wishing: A hope or desire for something

How I wish I could be on a plane right at this moment,

going somewhere besides {here},

anywhere but here.

Dear God,

please help me to get a vacation

sometime very,

very soon!

I talked to a man today from England...

He called all the way from England to talk to some one

about how to run his sprinkler timer.

I was the one fortunate enough to get to speak with him.

He made me want to travel to England! It sounds so exciting!

Please get me out of here.

The world has endless possibilities and my soul is

longing for them!

Rebate

All of you that didn't think you would EVER recieve a rebate from your mobile provider, you are wrong. (including my very own father)

I just got my Tmobile rebate card yesterday, and I was stoked!

$100 extra bucks for me! :)

Acrylic Nails

So, funny story. Yesterday I was sick and I called into work... I think I had food poisoning or something.

Anyway, in the late afternoon I started feeling a little bit better so I decided to go get my nails done at a local nail salon in Kaysville.

They are always very sweet to me there. I realized when I got there that it was not a very good idea. I was feeling a little bit nauseous already and the smell in there made it much worse!

I decided to try to just get through it, but about half way through the nice oriental lady was filing, filing, filing. With her electric filer. It seemed like it was lasting forever! I started to feel quite light headed and I asked the nice lady if I could go use the restroom. Of course she said yes.

I walked straight to the restroom and right as I entered the door I fell down. The next thing I remember is 3 nice Asian ladies standing around me asking me if I was okay. I said yes, yes, I am fine, don't worry about me.

One of the nice ladies asked me if I had eaten anything that day, and I just remembered at that moment that I hadn't eaten anything since the night before...oops...

Anyway, they were all speaking in their native tongue, I didn't really know what was going on.

Meanwhile one lady brought me a whole handfull of tootsie rolls, and made me eat them. Another lady brought me a bottle of water. Meanwhile, I just sat on the floor for the next ten minutes trying to catch my breath and soak in what had just happened.

I eventually got up with the help of these sweet little Asian ladies, she finished my nails and insisted on me calling someone to come pick me up. She was such a sweet lady.

Finally Dad and Mom came and picked me up and I went home. The moral of the story is: Don't forget to eat something during the day, don't go get your nails done if you are feeling nauseous and if you need some sugar, Asian ladies can always help :)

I am feeling much better today! I am actually writing this post here on break at work. I am so happy to be feeling better. Thank you Jesus, for letting me feel better today! xoxo

It's a Brand New day!

"It's a brand new day, the sun is shining. It's a brand new day!" :)

-Joshua Radin

Today is yet again another good day, I woke up to the sun shinning right in my face, the beginning of such a great, great day!

I am now sitting at 600 s. West Temple listening to Queen sing Bohemian

Rhapsody in a little Coffee House called RawBean.

It is a sweet little place.

I have become quite addicted to the smell of coffee and the atmosphere it provides.

Something about it encompasses me and I just love it. :)

I suppose it makes me feel as if I am home in my grandmothers house

on 92 High St. in Thomaston, Connecticut.

She always has a fresh pot of coffee brewing,

when we walk in, it just surrounds you

and you truly know you're home.

It also gives me the inspiration to write.

What is better than blogging in a cute little coffee

House listening to oldies and watching people discuss their lives,

drinking their cups of coffee and eating biscotti?

Nothing :)

Anyway, I best be off.

I am going to the Jake Garn Photography Workshop

today and I am SO SO excited! :)

I absolutely love my life!

Thank you to my Lord, and Saviour, Jesus Christ

for letting me live and enjoy my life here on earth

through His love and grace. Praise be to His name.

Barnes and Noble bliss!

Tonight, was a great night. Actually, all day was a great day, a great, great day.

Beautiful sun, wonderful people, pay day, chick-fil-a, sweet-sweet perfume,

the smell of coffee and books at Barnes and Noble.

Today was a day I decided to celebrate my independence. I treated myself to some new

perfume from MAC :) I sat in Barnes and Noble and just read and read

magazines and books. Today was a great day. Thank you God for letting me have these days

to remind me how amazing this life can be. I love my life, and I love my family, I love my friends,

and last but not least I love my savior Jesus Christ. Thank you.

Work, work, WORK, work, Work

I am blogging at work....I know i know, I'm bad.

I figured out how to change the font on my posts! :)

I was SO excited!

Does anyone know how to change the font of the blog title?! I want to change mine really bad!

Anyway, let me know. Better go back to work...xoxo!

California!! :)

I cannot wait for tomorrow! :) I am going to be meeting my best friend Alicia Child and her boyfriend Ryan Bartley in Sacramento, California! I don't know why I am so excited....actually...I do...I am so happy to be getting out of Utah for the weekend.

Also, I Love California! I have always wanted to move there. From the beach, to the city, to the culture. I love it all! Who knows, maybe one day I will live there!!

Anyway, Happy Earth day! Love you all!

Pulled over...

So.....I got pulled over on my way to work the other day...

But, I got out of it! :) I was so excited, after I found out I got out of it of course!

I guess that's what you get for being a cry baby. If that's what it takes to get yourself out of a ticket and higher insurance each month, so be it! Thank you to the nice cop who let me out of it! He really shouldn't have, I was going 85mph in a 65mph zone...oops...But, I was late for work...I know that's no excuse, but for me it was, and I did tell him the truth. Anyway, thank you nice cop, and thank you God for sending those tears to my eyes.

Catch up...

So...I feel like I have a TON of catching up to do. (on this blog that is) I have never been a huge blogger except for posting my photographs every once and a while, but I have really gotten interested in it lately! I, like many of us, like to read what is going on in other peoples lives(especially at work, when I am bored). It's just exciting and intriguing to me! Sorry...if that sounds creepy.

Anyway....Last week I was able to go to Connecticut with my family for Easter weekend and it was SO much fun! We (Mom, Dad, Carl, Amanda, and my little niece Sophia) flew out on Thursday morning and I had to fly home on Monday :( Everyone else left on the next Thursday...but I had to go back to work! It was so much fun though, hanging out with the cousins, seeing Nonni and Poppop (my dad's parents) and also Grammie and Grandpa (Mom's parents). Some of the things we like to do while we are in good old Thomaston, CT is: Go on walks with one of my favorite cousins Mikey, go frog hunting at the old cemetary behind Grammie and Gramps house, play and sing acoustic music on the porch, eat Nonni's AMAZING Italian cuisine, and visit with all the family! It was a blast! Here are a few pictures from the excursion!

My Sister Amanda and Niece Sophia

Popop, this would fall under the "eating Nonni's amazing food category"

Grandpa Harry

Carl, texting (as usual)

Mikey, Playing the guitar! He is SO good!

Mannequin

So....I bought a mannequin...I don't know why, maybe I am weird.

My dad said I was when I told him I bought it off of Ebay. I just have always wanted one. To hang clothes on and such, also it is going to help me now that I am a photographer with testing lighting! So, I am excited
