Summer Projects

2010-07-19T18:07:00.000-07:00

This summer I have been trying to keep myself busy with different projects. My first project was my purple frames/ hair accessories holder in my summer post last week. What I worked on last/ this week is painting my desk.... Projects to come are.... Painting my canopy bed frame....Painting my sisters's canopy bed frame lime green.... finding a chair to use with my dest maybe painting and reupholster that as well.... here are a few before and after pictures of my desk and bed hopefully there will be more pictures to come soon of more projects let me know if you have any fun project ideas I can try!!!

ok so this isn't my desk its my brothers but mine used to look exactly like this one.....

it looks like your basic desk just brown, little cubby, and pull out shelf.

this is my desk after I painted it black!!!

still your basic desk just a sleeker look and it gives me a better place to do my hair and make up! Hopefully by next weekend I will have a Vanity mirror to hang above it to make it more vanityish and less deskish....

this is the before picture of my bed frame I'm painting it black also.....

Why so much black you ask?

Well hopefully when we move it will be into a house or condo so I can do my own room. I have a giant vinyl eiffel tower I want to put on a bright white wall and have my desk and bed both black and find a gorgeous bright yellow bed spread/ throw..... I also have a little purple shelf that hangs on the wall and matching purple frames and two purple boards with vinyl on them too. One says Katee/ daughter of a king that I made at GC and the other says Virtue/ let it garnish your thoughts unceasingly then shall thy confidence wax strong.... I hope to also paint my white bookshelf yellow and have fabric storage boxes in yellow purple white and black! I hope my room turns out the way I am visioning it! My mom helps so much and I get great ideas from friends.... something I'm looking for ideas on right now is a shoe holder shelf/ separater rack thing what ever you want to call it.... if you have any cute ideas for one leave a comment!! My inspiring quote for this post is.....

My dreams/ projects all started with a blog post and a birthday gift from mom :D

What have your dreams started with?

Soundtrack of My Life.....

2010-07-14T16:28:00.000-07:00

**Warning this is an "interactive" post it requires some work on your part**

So I got the idea to write in ways a "soundtrack" of my life from my friend Hannah's english 1010 homework. I thought the assignment sounded interesting and even though I am taking the same class this fall, I thought why not do it now?? So it basically is songs that remind me of events and people in my life. Now this is where your part comes in, see that playlist ----> ---> the songs go in order of the events and people so when the song is mentioned you can click on it and play as much of the song as your little hearts desire and move on to the next when it is mentioned... so here we go.....

I chose Billy Joel's "Uptown Girl" to describe myself because I have always been a city girl, I'm in to fashion, make-up, interior design, shopping, and anything that sparkles.... I thought this song said it the best.... although I don't think I need a man with money necessarily to make me happy... so that part doesn't count.. :D

The next song "Butterfly Kisses" by Bob Carlisle reminds me of when I was little and my parents would get me to fall asleep and when I would go with my mom to take my dad to work I remember hearing this song a lot it makes me happy... and sleepy....

"I Love You Always Forever" by Donna Lewis reminds me of my mom, she used to sing me this song and she loved the part that says: "You've got the most stumblin' blue eyes I've ever seen" it is 1:42 into the song if you wanna skip to that little part.... I used to have blue eyes when i was younger... now they are green....I love my mom she is amazing and is my best friend!!

Ah "You're the One that I Want"...... Saturday nights my family would always go grocery shopping at Macey's in west jordan and listen to Showtunes Saturday night on Kozy 106.5 to and from the store. Grease has always been one of my favorite musicals.....

N'Sync's "Bye Bye Bye" is kind of a random note here.... Krysta and I used to fight a lot when we were younger but what sisters didn't?? I remember one time imparticular she got the new N'Sync CD and she would never let me listen to it... so one day when she wasn't in our room I took the CD and broke it... I was a stupid child cuz now neither one of us could listen to the Cd and I still got in trouble ..no winning there except that I made Krysta mad.....

Glee's cover of "Beth" represents my family moving to Ammon Idaho in 2004, but my dad stayed and lived in Utah with my grandparents for his job so he could only come up on weekends... song is kinda self explanitory on this one but can I just say I LOVEE puck off of Glee he is soo studdly....*sigh*

"Shake yo Groove Thang..." by Peaches & Herb reminds me of my Dad... he loves disco and I just love this song so it works.... It also reminds me of when my brothers and sister and I would get up at 4 AM and do a paper route and we would have to listen to "dad music" while we did our routes.....

"I Say a Little Prayer" by my sista Aretha, reminds me of my best friend from Idaho, Jessica Dawn Hart the 1st.... We were driving down the main street in Idaho Falls, 17th street, one night and we were blasting this song as she drove... we even had actions and did them for cars next to us.. it was marvelous :D I miss Jess and love her just as much as my own sister in fact she is...

Jesse McCartney's "Beautiful Soul" reminds me of another friend from Idaho Silvana we would always have sleep overs and drool over Jesse McCartney and listened to this song over and over again....

"Wild Wild West" by Will Smith you ask....? Well, I couldn't drive when we lived in Idaho so my older brother Marcus always had to drive my friends and I around and we would ask him to play this song all the time after it randomly came on one time... my friends and I memorized the lyrics and I can proudly still sing along... so it reminds me of Marcus and his random gangsta moments....

"We're all in this together" by none other than the High School Musical Cast reminds me of my very first ballroom dance group performance we did a cha cha to this song... I miss IBA... 2nd best Swing Dancer in Gem State BABY!!! I won't make you listen to this song any more you can turn it off....

"Mercy" by Duffy is mainly used for the title not so much the lyrics... it represents the 1st time I sluffed a class in middle school in 8th grade... Mrs. Snowden's english class with Silvana... needless to say we got caught and I was in BIG trouble... but so was Daniel because he set the example for me ;) so i begged for Mercy.... thus the song Mercy!

Oh "Hey There Delilah" by Plain White T's... We were moving back down to Utah in 2007 I think and I was riding in the U-Haul with my dad and this song came on like 90 times while we were driving down and it has a sad melody so it fit the situation... i loved idaho and still do i miss it so much but i've had so many great memories in utah I get to tell you about now....

"Letter to Me" by Brad Paisley reminds me of my brother Daniel... when we moved back down to utah it was his senior year and it was really hard for him so we got really close, not that we weren't already... we were born on the same day, June 6th, 3 years apart and we have stuck together since then..... I would also say the song "I'm awesome" by spose reminds me of him as well but I couldn't post that on my blog... its kinda inappropriate you can look it up on your own if you wish.. my favorite part is "and if you like this.. its cuz i'm little sister wrote it" haha we listened to it for the 1st time in an arctic cirle drive thru and couldn't stop laughing at the lyrics :D

Michael Buble... who doesn't love him? "Everything" reminds me of 9th grade and my friend Matt... in science we would pass a notebook back and forth and just write song lyrics on it and we still give each other great songs to listen to... and he still has the notebook he is a cutie..

"Fifteen" by Taylor Swift obviously reminds me of when I was fifteen and starting High School at Huge Copper Hills it was scary but I had great friends and got to go while my sister was a senior which made it easier and this song came out oddly that same year.....

"Forever" by Chris Brown reminds me of my first high school dance.. the Hello stomp after the 1st home game of the year.... I went with my sister and some of her friends. I remember this song from the stomp specifically because when it came on it was like someone hit the partay button and turned it on HIGH!! I remember dancing with Eric Diamond, Krysta, Caitlyn Rassmensen, Tommy Nudd, and Stefan Warren... they were all seniors and I was a sophmore the guys were wearing sunna shades, just a random note, and I felt cool... so now I always remember the stomp when iI listen to it and those guys and how crazy they were and also how lucky I was to also have all those cute boys in my seminary class :D

"Wild at Heart" by Gloriana reminds me of my sister Krysta and the great year we had together her senior year and my sophmore year.... we hung out a lot.. her friends were my friends and my friends were her friends too .we went on random adventures together and got really close that year and summer......plus she used to sing this song religiously...

"All the Above" by Maino ft. T-Pain, reminds me of the summer in between my Sophmore and Junior year, it continued my sister and I's "adventures" that summer.. one I remember the most is we were driving my cousin Jeff's truck down some street in Riverton listening to this song when a huge truck full of cowboys pulled up next to us and started dancing to this song.... we sped away laughing at the cowboys dancing to the rap song....

"How to Save a Life" by the Fray reminds me of August 24th, 2009 for reasons you that know me probably could figure out.... 'nuff said....

"Merry Happy" by Kate Nash reminds me of my Junior Year because it was a great year and I feel like it made me grow a lot with all the things I was involved in and things with my friends...

"Highway to Hell" Glee's cover reminds me of my Junior year as well because I failed my 1st class ever that year 3rd quarter AP Us History with Mr. Wall..... I'm still doing summer school to make up that credit.... and my friend Chantelle and I used to drive around listening to this song a few times when we were hyper.....

"Kids" by MGMT reminds me of my Tech class this year and the amazing girls I met in it!!! We always has so much fun, going on trips downtown, naming strangers sleeping on TRAX, taking pictures, and basically being kids :D

"Young Forever" by Jay- Z ft. Mr. Hudson also reminds me of those girls and the fun times we still have today like we once had a tea party and wore Pink stick on Mustaches... if you don't believe me check my facebook pictures as proof.... we also took pictures outside random daybreak houses that were fun colors :D

"Bust a Move" by Young MC reminds me of my 1st DECA comp. with girls from my tech program. Lexi, Nikki, Massie, and Lindsay thanks to Mrs. Short hettin gus to join!!.... this was our Jam in our hotel room in layton.... one of the funnest weekends of my life.... we didn't place in finals but we still had a blast!!

"Out of my League" by Stephen Speaks reminds me of my friend Shannon who I got close to this year and summer...we always talk about boys and she is the one that introduced me to this song because she said she wanted the guy she falls in love to feel this way about her.. so now it reminds me of her and also of how a guy should treat/ feel about you if he loves you... cute I know.

"The way you make me feel" by none other than MJ... reminds me of girls camp because the first music Katie and I turned on while we were there was Michael Jackson's Greatest Hits....

"Vogue" by Madonna also reminds me of the GC because we listened to this on one of Laura's mixes while she gave us make overs.... she did a little dance for us and everything it was so funny I love her!!! she's such a great role model for me and the other girls :D

"Whatta Man" by En Vogue also is another GC memory because our amazing preisthood and cabin owner Jake did so much to help at camp and we all think Jen is one lucky girl to have someone so helpful and funny and not to mention talented and spiritual.... so the song fits.....

"Happily Ever After" by He is We might confuse you at first glance... but its more of a hope.... than an actual memory... I hope this song will remind me of my senior year and that I end up happy and I get to yell my story....plus its just a great song....

"Graduation (Friends Forever)" by Vitamin C is also a song I hope will remind me of my senior year and my friends from high school... hopefully it will remind some of you of your graduations and high school.....

"Us" by Regina Spektor I hope will remind me of my college life and journeys that come after that as well..... mainly because I hope someone builds a statue of me and puts it on a mountain top or names a city after me..... the chorus also I think could remind me of it with the part that says "We are living in a den of thieves rumaging for answers in the pages.." because I know in college you learn alot about yourself and what you want the rest of you life to be about...I hope to search around for those answers.....

"Undeniable" by Mat Kearney is a memory and hope.... it reminds me and describes my friends and family so far in my life and I hope more friends and family to come in the future because you all are undeniable and the only ones in an unreliable world ;)... Chorus explains it all.....

"Fame" by Naturi Naughton is a hope too not because I want to be famous but because "I'm gonna learn how to fly and make it to heaven" and I hope "people cry when they see me"... in a good way.... and they will remember my name" in good times.....

"Jump rope" by Blue October is just a good summary of my life and it makes me happy and the lyrics really say what I can't..... its been good times... and hard times... but I have also gained great advice and experience..... life really is l"ike a jump rope, up and down"..... we gotta "hold our heads up high and watch all the negative go by".....

Finally the end....."May Angles Lead You In" by Jimmy Eat World..... I hope when I die angles lead me in..... and even now in all I do..... May angles lead you all in, in whatever it is you will go on and experience and accomplish....may you all "Deny, Deafeat, and RISE on victory's wings!"

Well i keep up trends pretty well its been another 4 months since i have updated this thing! Go Me! whoo......so a lot has happened since october last year.....i joined DECA at jordan high school thanks to my marketing teacher Mrs. Short its been so much fun! I'm going to state this week in Layton and i'm sooo excited! I've been very busy lately with french club and tech stuff and other things. Also since october daniel and krysta have been back home which was....uncomfortable to say the least going from just 4 people in the house to 6 again is very hard, but there gone again so its all good..... i've been getting ready to take the ACT hopefully in April and its been weird to see how fast growning up has gone. I've also started getting mail and e-mail from colleges i'm not ready for this i still feel like i should be in middle school.... Other than that tho things have been pretty good....Oh and i must give a shout out to Shawn White in all his hotness with his new half pipe gold medal, that double McTwist 1260 was absolutly amazing! Oh and to jessica i finally updated my blog....tell kyle i say hi ;) love ya'll and miss a lot of you too! have an awesome february!

2009-10-04T07:58:00.000-07:00

wow i havent' done this in a really long time! So much has been going on i've been so busy! School takes up most of my time these days... i have my tech program i'm doing for hospitality and tourism that i love it is so much fun and i'm learning more this past month in that class than i have the rest of the time i have been in school!! i'm also in AP american history and math 1010 that takes up a lot of time...i "get" to go to all the football games this year since andrew decided he is trying for a football scholarship too and is now the kicker for varsity and JV...i'm also doing french club council which is so fun but a lot of hard work! being in all these fun things has made me make new friends that i never would have met if i didn't do it! I think everyone needs to try something new its amazing how much you can learn and gain! Dan left for his mission almost two months ago now and its been hard but so amazing to see how much he has learned and he knows now that we lived in a bubble our whole lives living in utah and idaho haha. Krysta is off at SUU now and has been there for a while now too...she loved it at first and now she is a little homesick and is having roommate troubles she is thinking about transfering to somewhere else that would be "better for her" i think she thinks it was going to be more like BYU since it was still in utah and she has had a little culture shock! My parents are the same still working although my mom did break her ankle and sprained her knee playing KICKBALL at work....yeah my mother plays kickball! I got my license a while ago too and i'm very excited to get to drive to idaho..when my parents finally let me go....i'm hoping sometime soon!! well thats whats been up with me! i miss everyone in idaho and hope to get to visit soon!! love you all and have an AWESOME day :)

New Thoughts

2009-05-03T17:18:00.000-07:00

So i was talking to Daniel today when it hit me......I'm going to be all alone this summer....let me explain...
Daniel had his final interview with the Bishop today and has his interview with the stake pres. to put his papers fully in and should get his call sometime very soon...he will be hopefully leaving this summer.
Krysta is going to SUU for her 1st year of college this fall and has orientation etc. going on this summer.
Marcus has a job and is only home at night any ways.
Dad and Mom both work too.
WHAT AM I SUPPOSTED TO DO ALL SUMMER??
Liz works at night so Coop doesn't even need a nanny this summer....
This is weird...I have to do all the chores...i'll even have to start COOKING for my self at let me tell you I CAN"T COOK!!! The extent of my cooking skills is chocolate chip cookies, brownies, cake, frosting, lasagna (with mama's help), and bagels!!! I"M NOT GOING TO SURVIVE THIS SUMMER.....Older siblings need to realize the travisty this causes leaving younger kids by themselves!!! I never thought i would miss my older brothers and sisters when they finally decided to leave but now i realize how much they did for me!
Marcus always knew how to solve hard problems,when something went wrong you would know to ask marcus what to do his ideas and imagination are limitless as how to solve things, and can make you laugh in ANY situtation.
Daniel was always willing to talk and was always my emotional support, i could trust him with anything. When he moved to Idaho I at least knew i could call or text him whenever i needed, with him on a mission its not that easy, letters take a while to get and he is supposted to be focusing on the work any ways, not my boy of friend problems at home.
Krysta was always a friend any friday i didn't have plans i could count on her to fill them for me. She always cooked dinner when mom wasn't home. She takes me to school, and to friends houses, lunch, on late night drives for no reason, and put up with my "white girl" dancing in the car when good songs come on the radio, as she puts it anyways.
I never realized how much i would miss them or how much they did for me and how important it is to have a strong family you can rely on. My parents will always be there for me but not in the same way my brothers and sister have been...These next two years i have left of high school and with out them is going to be an interstingadventure and i hope i can handle it. Good friends hopefully will come my way that will take their subsituted places, cuz my idaho friends of course are in Idaho...i don't know how i've made it through my first year of high school with out them...its been hard! Thanks to my mom and dad for creating such a loving, strong, and close family i have been able to rely on! And for the oportunity to move to idahp to create such good friends and role models! I will really miss my brothers and sisters as they start in "the real world" and on new missions in their lives. I already miss everyone in idaho and i hope you all know that and that i love you all so much!! Thank you to of course my father in heaven for bring all these amazing people into my life as well, with out him these next few years might seem impossible with out his comfort and guidence, reading my patriarchal blessing in sacrament today helped me realize all these things and how blessed i am. I hope you all realize the same and know how much you are loved!! wish me luck!

4th quarter

2009-04-08T16:19:00.000-07:00

Its finally fourth quarter and things are slowin down again but only a little and at school...i'm still a dance captain for our stake in the temple celabration that is coming up on may 30th, which has taken up a lot of my time me and krysta help with warm-ups and just learned how to do the boot scoot (i don't know who to spell that is that right?) after like 5 years of time to forget it..lets just say we got taught by a 5 year old on youtube.....my AP euro test is may 8th that my teacher has us running scholastic marathons for and i have written a total of 5, 45 minute timed, essays in the past 2 weeks.. not to mention the prep tests as well.. we also are preping for CRT end of the year testing that starts april 23 or 28th, i don't remember i have also started drivers ed (finally) but my mom is TERRIFIED to drive with me so i only get to go with my dad on the weekends...maybe over spring break that will change... my last break until summer scary i know....but im kinda scared to get my lisence cuz of all the scary drivers out there but i cant wait to get a job so i can go to idaho more often (I really need to get a haircut from kenz and go shoe shopping with jess) and so i don't have to bug my parents about money to do stuff.... i am also going to the BYU language fair on the 16th for french which i am really excited about, my 2 months of memorizing le corbeau a la renard is finally paying off! I also am going to a lot of andrew's home soccer games which actually takes up most of my time soccer games are LONG! maybe i should start taking my homework with me but that would almost defeat the purposed of going to watch...his dad has gotten quite good at pimping me out on dates with him to get them to win which by the way we are undefeated (in varsity but not JV) and #2 in the state Riverton is our last team we have to beat to get #1!!!!

school registration already!!

2009-01-28T17:47:00.000-08:00

In PAWS today i got my registration stuff for next year already! I feel like i just started 9th grade yesterday how can i be getting ready for my junior year?? I'm applying for 3 in high school college courses to recieve high school and college credit and taking another set of classes at the tech center that can give me 14 hours of college credit and a paid internship for my senior year... the course i'm taking is on hospitality and tourism..or buisness managment i think it will be fun and a job that is always in need so if times get hard i have a pretty good chance of not getting layed off!! Its still just so crazy to think that i'm already 1/2 way through high school and already getting ready for college i don't even know what college i want to go to...any suggestions?? I miss being in middle school and having things being so much more relaxed...i don't want to grow up yet!! But i guess its something we all have to do..it just happens faster than we expect!

day 2

2009-01-23T15:14:00.000-08:00

b-day #2 of the semester and i think i am going to survive...i never knew i could do 12 pull ups but p.e. every other day for 5 years i guess really does pay off....but i can't shake the feeling that something is wrong.....like one of those feelings that someone isn't telling you the truth..that something isn't right...how do you fix that?? But at least funny things seem to constantly be happening which keeps things worth while...and of course family.i'm so happy i have a family that is always there for me and friends as well..and neighbors..i dont know what i would do without liz sam cooper and sophie to keep me entertained and laughing!! everyone needs some of that in their lives along with some chocolate and hugs!!

lost

2009-01-22T18:06:00.000-08:00

2nd semester finally started wednesday after a long weekend which sucked but at least we are 1/2 way through the year!!!! The other thing that started this week..LOST (the TV show) i totally hate that show but can't help but watch it! You watch one episode cuz you are bored and then BAM! you are sucked in and can't stop watching it even though you are totally confused the whole time and don't know what is goin on!!! It sooo frustrating but you can't stop your self i hate it...daniel isn't even here to help me understand...but at least it is something to do to keep my mind off of careers, drivers ed, P.E. (with a fractured ankle), biology, honors english, AP euro history, college prep math, and french....seminary is my only break- i' m so glad i have friends in my class it makes it more personal- i hope 2nd semester goes by just as fast and the 1st one only 2 and 1/2 years of high school left and then i get to choose what the heck i want to do with the rest of my life...i don't even know what i want to be yet...this is going to be hard any good ideas?? Who knew life could be so.....interesting but hard at 15...
P.S.- only 135 days until i trn 16!!!! Yay

2008-10-16T21:44:00.000-07:00

so yeah i haven't written in 2 months i blame the ap class and friends that seem to consume my life these days not to mention my mom and her blogs i read everynight cuz they make me laugh......... she just corrected my grammar on MY BLOG!!! who does that haha??? its like a really long text..... to everyone..... so anyways school has been amazing i love high school and i only got lost once it was...really bad.... but i had a really cute snake skin (faux) 3 inch pointed toe rampage shoe stolen yes just one i still have the matching one that goes with it. what does one do with one high heeled shoe??? stupid boys....my mom wouldn't want me to leave out my latest big money dispense...i got in a car accident with my sister...the two boys that rear ended us...were two of my best friends down here andrew and nathan.... we got out of the car and just laughed while my sister and her friends had a mental break down...we also asked the cop if we could sit in the back of his car...he told us only if we stole something from the maverick down the street..andrew actually thought about it just to get a picture what wont boys do to get their show off shot?? we lost our football game last night to west jordan...i was very disappointed cuz our defense wasnt in the game until 4th quarter...i'm pretty sure i offended our student body pres. but i guess its a good thing i 'm friends with stefan and diamond to keep me on tommy's good side.... my mom likes to tell all of our family about me and andrew and tell them that i have crush on him she even posted it on her facebook...he's not a crush.... that would mean that i would have a crush on silvana or jessica too do the words best friend mean and thing these days or does every body have to have a crush??? well thats all for my rant today so good bye again probably for another 2 months again bye love ya'll

I like my classes tho i'm a TA for ballroom 3 and my locker is in a bad but good place bad cuz its far from my classes good cuz its by the gym and football teams lockers can you say JACKPOT!! how many sophmores can say they were surrounded by the entire football team and the soccer field is right outside!! I have some classes with people i know but not quite friends which i guess gives me opportunities to get to know more people but its still scary!! Sleeping out on the 24th was soo much fun the guys i was with drank so much vault and slurpee that they were shaking it was pretty funny!!! I've been odsessed with the olympics and michael phelps (can you say hot bod!) and the mens gymnastics the muscles on those guys are intense the control and mscle it takes to do some of that stuff is crazy!!
