Drive In

So Remember those Drive In Movie Theaters our parents and grandparents used to go to? A time in Which there were no such things as indoor movie theaters? Well.. there is one around us (45-60Mins away) and we went to it last night! I've been to it maybe 2 times before, so I know how fun it is.. but this was B's first time there! B's youngest brother Z's tagged along and It was his first time too! I have been telling B. forever that I wanted to take him to the drive in before he goes away for two months! Finally it happened. Luckily, He has a truck and Of course with my little Pinner heart We made a Little Camp in the flatbed. Our little Camp was fully equipped with Blankets, which was great cause it got a little chilly. Like the Amazing Man & Older Brother I love, B. surprised Z. with some Popcorn & a Soda. The Drive-in was playing a double feature of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Hercules,We watched Turtles only but it was overall a Fun experience. I didn't even think of Taking a picture of Our little Camp, I will next time along with bringing food and Pillows. Here's some Pictures of Last Night.

Valuable lessons in Dating.

Yesterday was Sunday which included Church and then a fireside to follow. The fireside was about Dating and it was great!It was long.. but, great valuable lessons. The fireside was about a web blog turned Book "31 dates in 31 days" by Tamara Duricka Johnson. The best part is that not only was the author their in person, but she was Mormon!(me too) I loved it when I first heard about the fireside and actually looked at her blog after hearing all she had to say. Here's the blog link: So the super "Me" summed up version is that she(me too) was tired of being single and wanted to start anew. The idea ultimately meant to start fresh, go on first dates, have fun and just enjoy the process without any expectations. So, she went on 31 dates in 31 days, had a second date with one of them and ended up marrying the same guy! It's pretty official that she's a Rockstar! In the church alot of times dating isn't easy... like AT ALL! Especially to a Convert looking in.(also like me)So, because of that I have decided to really put myself out there and start dating. I feel like this experience will take time and also building my confidence. One of the Prime Lessons that I learned from Tamara's talk was to just say "Yes". Yes to anyone that asks for a date and/or anyone that I wouldn't normally go for. I should give everyone a chance and that's exactly what I'm going to do. The only problem is that will those same people have the same motto as me, the "Yes" to anyone motto. I just hope to be given a chance as I am giving a chance to everyone else. Another Great Valuable lesson was just because you went on a date with a person and sparks did not fly that doesn't mean it's a dead end. The reason for this is because they have friends! One of those friends could be the one and even your future spouse. So... You...Never...Know... :) So we shall see where this goes!

Accepted?

So I applied to University! I applied to 3 universities in 3 totally different States. I applied to Utah,Idaho and Hawaii All three which are church schools. Utah is 1st choice, Idaho my 2nd and Hawaii My 3rd (Only b/c it's super far away... and I live in California!) So Far, I got Accepted to BYU Hawaii & Idaho (In that order) It's kinda Bittersweet for me going off to college. I am super Pumped for the Experience & Adventure I have yet to encounter moving to another state. At the same time all my family lives in California, so I'm sure it will be especially hard on my Parents. I'm just grateful that I'm getting Accepted, I know now that a 4.0 Gpa & getting on the Deans List Finally paid off. I still have yet to hear from Utah which btw, is the hardest of the three to get into but, Patience is Key (So I'm told.) If I don't get into Utah, It's ok b/c I think I would really enjoy Rexburg,ID. Here's some Pics of what It looks like. I will Blogging From One of these Places! Can't Wait! So Here are the Campuses: Utah, Idaho, Hawaii
