Adventures in Utah!

i had an amazing time in Utah hanging out with hil and jess but man was it FREEZING!!!! look at how cold it was!

ya it was so so sooooo COLD!! and i HATE the cold!! that is why i live in the desert! so now that we've established that i REALLY don't like the cold you can imagine how my week went... i wore at least 5 layers at all times!! i always had 2 jackets on and that silly little scarf wrapped clear up to my eye balls!! there was no way i was letting any of that snow touch me!!

So here's where my adventure in Utah starts... i decided to fly up there cuz there was no way little marty the metro was going to make it up there PLUS i can't drive in the snow (basically crappy car and horrible driving skills equaled accident so i avoided them both) so first problem NO car. then day after getting to Utah my aunt calls me to tell me they have to shut off my phone for the weekend so now i have NO car and NO phone and i'm in a place where i have NO clue where i'm going.

jessica sends me a message on facebook and wants me to come pick her up from work cuz there's a snow storm and she doesn't want to walk home in it. (so are you seeing the problems lining up?) she gives me the worst directions of my life and i head out in the storm with her car to find her! well about 10 minutes on this journey i've almost been in more accidents then i can count and am totally lost! so i pull up to the first guy i see and ask for some help. he's just as clueless as i am so as i drive off i yell "well thanks alot!" in a not so friendly voice.

i pull into the first parking lot i can find so A) i don't kill someone with my horrible driving and B) i can stop and figure out where i'm at. i see this guy standing next to his car and decide to ask for some help again. after explaining to him my problem he gives me his cell phone to call jess. as me and jess are yelling at each other trying to figure out where i am he asks if he can talk to her i hand him the phone and do you know what the first thing he says to her was..." my name is Boubacar, i only speak French and just know a little English..." (yes and that is how you say his name boob a car!) i can hear jessica laughing in the background as her and him try to understand each other and figure out how to get me in the right place.

after he's was done talking to jess i followed behind him and he took me to where she was. i pulled into the parking lot and jess says to me " are you KIDDING me breinn!!! out of all the guys that are on the BYU campus you find the ONE guy that's from Africa AND only speaks French!!!!" what can i say i'm just amazing i guess!!! it was really some adventure and i really am grateful for nice people like that, that help a complete idiotic stranger like me out! so here's us and boubacar we met up with him to take his picture later on that night because it was just to funny and i had to have proof!

so ya basically we're like best friends with him now! not really but he did try and convince us to go to Vegas with him and his friend for the week but we passed that opportunity up. but he keeps telling me he's going to come to az to visit me some time. he definitely in NOT my edward!!! i think this man hunt is really going down hill for me!! i swear he has got to be in his 30's!!!! oh well i'm just going to have to hunt harder!

the dress!

so woohoo i found the perfect dress, the perfect shoes, the perfect everything BUT one thing was missing the PERFECT party!!! hahaha so us girls got all gussied up for an amazing night and guess what all the parties SUCKED!!! haha it's all good tho it was fun dressing up and me and hanna had a blast yelling "HAPPY NEW YEAR!" to every person we saw on the street haha oh and to top off the badness of the night i didn't even get a new years kiss!!! not even a wink or a smile or even a "how you doin?" ya nothing i was very depressed!!! but oh well there is always next year right!?!

and i decided it was probably for the best my kisses are special and i want to save my new years kiss for someone that means something to me. don't get me wrong kissing a total random hottie would be amazing BUT i think it would be even better to start your new year off by kissing someone special...

HECK who am i kidding i'm just trying to tell myself that's whats best because i didn't get what i really wanted! the way to REALLY start your new year off with a bang is to kiss a total "EDWARD" STRANGER!!! tall, hot, and mysterious!! that is how it should be done!! he just comes out of no where while your counting down to new years! your eyes lock with his and you know whats coming and you can't fight it he swoops in just at the last second and plants one on you!! HECK not just one how about a zillion!! right there while every ones cheering on the new year!! yup thats how it SHOULD have went that night!! oh well next year there is always next year!! oh and let me just show you who i'm thinking of while i'm picturing all this amazingness oh yes that is just one FIIIINE man!!!

Dress shopping!!!

ok so you would think that in such a big town and with so many malls and stores that you would be able to find just the right dress right??? WRONG!!! i swear it's the universe is just against me looking cute for new years!!! so i have a SLIGHT problem... i'm really short! i'm 5 foot nothing! so normally i really don't care about my height ya know i've kinda lived with it for 19 years. but you see the problem is i'm not only short but i'm stumpy.... ok i'm really just abnormally, heavily proportioned in my front upper and my back lower areas haha basically i got CURVES! so finding the right dress is quit a challenge.
1. the dress is meant for normal people which means if it goes to their knees it hits my ankles!!
2. if the dress is short you think it would fit just right NOPE it hikes up underneath the cheeks in the back and hangs down at the knees in the front!
3. i'm not supper skinny so i don't like things just clingin to my lard! it's treacherous and makes me feel like i have to suck in everywhere i go! no fun!
so after three days of a major dress hunting i've come up empty handed!!! oh don't get me wrong i'm not oober picky i found some cute ones but guess what i'm not a freakin money tree (oh my gosh did i just refer to myself as a money tree!!! aaahhh i sound like a parent!! SCARY!!!)
so if you must know why i'm so stressed for a dress it's because the dress is just a little pon in the big scheme of thing...i'm on a man hunt! HELLO i've got to get myself a new years kiss!!!! so if i have the right dress and i look effin HOT then i can get a amazing hunk!!!! and get my first new years kiss!!! so yup thats the plan!!! GO TEAM!

aliens!!!

ok mom I love you but you are an official LOON!! and now I must tell the world so that people understand where I get my weirdness from. I have a good excuse it's genetic!!! you get weirdness from your parents! I don't care what science says about inheriting personality traits! CRAZINESS is a Gene and you CAN pass it on to your offspring!! I'm living proof!!!

so me and my mom are very similar... ya I can't believe I'm admitting that one. so we both have really random weird moments and we love to share them with each other. this particular time my mom calls me up and the phone call goes something like this...

me: hey

mom: did you get my e-mail?

me: uhhh nope. haven't checked it yet.

mom: well go check it! I saw a UFO and sent you the picture!!!

me: YOU WHAT?!?! are you kidding me!!! WHEN? WHERE?

mom: ok SOOOO we were driving home from church when we saw them both in the sky! there was a big one and a little one. when we got home I ran inside and grabbed the camera but by the time I got back outside the tittle one zoomed away but I still got the big one!!!

so that's the picture of her UFO. it's pretty legit I must say!!! haha it makes you wonder.....

Just getting started

ok WELL... i really am not sure why i'm doing this i guess i just want to document my life, past and present. i'm not good with keeping a journal so maybe this will be better. ( fingers crossed) well to start this blog i'll just tell you i'm very random and goofy. it's not my fault tho i blame it on my mom and genetics! so i don't know about all of you but i am one of those weirdo Twilight fans!!! yes i will admit it i got my tickets for the midnight showing a week in advance and camped out in line for a good 5 hours to get the best seats in the theater! so needless to say us girls have been talking none stop about how excited we are for this movie. we went all out! we made the SWEETEST shirts ever that say " i heart Edward" on them, we bought fangs and we planned on dressing up all cute for the movie! (memo:put pictures up when i get them) SO this guy that was in my old ward that i haven't really met has been texting me every now and then (you know seeing if i'm possible dating material) and he new we were going to the midnight showing. so that morning he texts me about the twilight movie, i told him that i was so excited and that i've never been more excited for anything in my whole life! so the boy officially thinks i'm a nerd then he says QUOTE "well as long as you aren't dressing up like all those other weirdos then i guess that's cool.." me thinking i'm so funny sent him the picture of my shirts i made..... WELL lets just say the boy never text me back haha i'm pretty sure i scared him away with my obsession! haha oh well i need a guy who can deal with my weirdness right? RIGHT! so we went to the movie and let me just tell you I LOVE TWILIGHT!!! i think they did an amazing job following the book!! i walked out of the theater ready to start the hunt for MY Edward! i'd even settle for a Emmett or a Jasper!!! they were both FIIIIINE!!! well i better get out of bed and get all gussied up for the day so i can catch me a man!
