and just when i thought i could take a break.....

first off, i'm sure you are all waiting with baited breath on an update on the wedding. well. you're going to have to wait. my weekend is just as crazy as the past 5 days have been and i barely have time to breathe, let a lone blog. :P I promise to update you. For now, know that it was a BEAUTIFUL ceremony, a WONDERFUL reception, and overall a glorious time.

second off, I'm still running around with my head cut off. I auditioned tonight for Aida - I'm not sure they loved my voice, but they saw all my dance experience and told me to definitely be at the dance audition tomorrow morning. I figure this - even if I don't get a singing role, now they know my face so I'm one step ahead all of the other dancers that they have never seen before. Here's hoping I really can dance!! ha ha ha hah.

third off, immediately from the audition tomorrow morning I'm off to spend the ENTIRE day at the Covey Center. Yay for four ballet shows in one day!! yeah right. My poor girls have to be there at 9 am - the same time as my audition. Luckily I have a co-director that can be there at the beginning and I'll get there later. joys.

Finally just so you know....Grizzly Bear and I are still friends and flirting, but I had to tell him that we had to not kiss anymore while I figure out my emotions. He said he's okay with this. I hope he really is.....in the meantime I can't stop thinking about Percy. Percy texted me Monday. I haven't heard from him since, but he's supposed to call me on Sunday. I am VERY excited about that phone call. I just have to get through tomorrow + my solo in church on Sunday. Here goes...hopefully I'm still alive by Monday!!!

  • I only have the work day today + the work day tomorrow and 2.5 ballet classes between me and what is probably going to be the BUSIEST week of 2011.
  • I am singing a solo in church in 10 days. I'm a tad nervous.
  • I changed my audition song for Aida....I'm a much happier person with the new audition song.

First of June

Can you believe that it is already the first of June? I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around it! Since SO MANY things are happening in the month of June and I feel like I haven't given you a really good, meaty boy update, this post is going to be a hodgepodge of everything awesome that has happened, will happen and should happen in the next short while.

HERE WE GO!

First! Some countdowns!
  • There are 15 days until Sister B's wedding. I finished the centerpieces this weekend. Shoes have been procured. All that's left is to find a cuter white shirt, finish the guest book and finalize/purchase food for the reception. I can't believe the wedding is here. 
  • There are 17 days until the end-year recital: Sleeping Beauty by AofB. I am so excited for my students to perform! They have been working SO HARD and they look so extremely polished. Makes my heart happy and proud.
  • In 12 days my family will be here! The whole family hasn't been in Utah since they moved to Virginia. I'm excited to have them be here, even if it's just for a short little while.
  • In one week I'm getting my hairs did. Have to look all cutes and stuff for the wedding. ha!
  • In 18 days I'm singing a solo in church. I'm just a tad bit nervous about it. I practiced w/the choir for the first time on Sunday and it was a little scary. Here's hoping I don't croak or something. 
  • I only have 7 work days until I start my week long "vacation." (Is it really going to be a vacation? Probably not.)
Second! Some updates on boys!
  • Leviticus: We are still friends! We ended up at a mutual friend's BBQ on Monday and it was fun to see him and chat and such. We haven't been out in a few weeks, but he's so nice and helpful and such. A great friend truly.
  • The Australian: After him telling me we couldn't "date" right now and just with life and what not he and I hadn't hung out in a long time. We decided to hang out this past weekend - and it sort of was like a date. He took me to P.F. Chang's and convinced me to try shrimp. It was a weird texture, but pretty good otherwise. Anywho, after that we watched Willow on my couch and enjoyed cuddling. That boy sure knows how to cuddle. I'm not sure if this means anything. Knowing him it doesn't. Pretty much I'm just enjoying him and our friendship. :-)
  • Percy: He's the boy I mentioned here as a new "interest." After playing 2 rounds of phone tag we finally connected on the phone on Monday afternoon. He talks just as cute as he writes. He seems very genuine and that makes me happy.  We're going out to lunch on Friday (which is perfect since it's my day off!) and I'm rather stoked to see him in person. Now I just need to decide what to wear....
  • Grizzly Bear: So named because we clicked while at FHE last week at the Bean Museum while next to the bears. Ha! Also, he reminds me of a teddy bear. :o) Grizzly Bear and I texted most of the weekend, I said hi to him at church and have basically been my flirty, cute self. We watched Gnomeo & Juliet last night and snuggled on his couch. He walked me to my car, kissed me on the cheek and sent me on my way. He's already determined that we should hang out again and I agreed. No plans yet, but it will be fun regardless I'm sure. :-)
Third! A cute little something that I am liking this sunny, Wednesday afternoon. Loves!

Thursday Things and such

*yawn* Hi friends. I am a little on the sleepy side. That seems to be the story of my life these days. I keep attempting to get myself to go to bed early...but alas, it just doesn't seem to happen like ever. Oh well. I must be living life right? or maybe I'm just crazy. ;)

Let's see what awesome things are on my brain today shall we?


  • I am so glad that it is a holiday weekend. I am very much looking forward to sleeping in on Monday. :o)
  • Also, because of my awesome work schedule I have a 3-day weekend, a 3-day work week, followed by another 3-day weekend. What follows then is a 5-day work week and then a whole week off (my "vacation") for my sister's wedding/the end-year show. I can't believe it's coming up that fast. Gah.
  • I feel like I have 500 things to do. I really don't have that much to do, but it feels like I do. le sigh.
  • My iPod touch came in the mail this week! It is so fancy and shiny. I am in love with it.
Doesn't it look shiny? sigh. I think it is going to make my life way easier. We shall see!
  •  Also! I bought shoes for my the wedding. Finally. It only took me ages to find something I liked and that went with the outfits we are wearing. :o)
see?! aren't they super cute? I'm rather excited to wear them and stuff.
  • Sister B has her bridal session tomorrow. It should be fun times! I'm rather excited to see how they turn out and what not. 
  • I am not happy that it is supposed to rain this weekend. I just want sunshine and happiness! Is that too much to ask?
  • I'm singing a solo in church here in a few weeks. EEK! It's part of a choral number...but still. Me. A Solo. :P
  • I am making new friends in my ward. I love friends. People to do things with! Hurrah!
Basically...that's my life. The end-year recital + the wedding are slowly taking over - but everything will be said and done in 3 weeks + 2 days. I'm not sure what I'll do with myself at that point - but I'll probably play!! A lot!! :o)

Have a great Thursday friends!
