Day 3

So I have some of the greatest friends in the world. So how exactly can I choose just one?! I have made so many great friends in the past and now that I have to tell you all about them!My friends from back home are fantastic and they leave so many memories in my mind. And what is so fantastic about it is that we are all still friends. We are all in contact and we still write each other every week on Sunday just to tell each other about our lives in college! I Love These Girls!
My family I think are my greatest friends! I am missing Matt... he was on his mission but he is included in this picture! My family is always there and they love me no matter what and are always willing to help me out whenever I am needing it. I just love my family :) They are amazing :)The Ambassador group is some of my greatest friends and I am so grateful that I have each and everyone of them in my lives today! They are so nice and they really work hard as individuals and as a team. I feel so lucky to be part of such an organization!

My dance ensemble here at school is just superb! I was so extremely nervous into getting into dance because I had had such a bad experience before! But these girls and guys are just so fantastic and they really go out of there way to help you. When you make a mistake they say get it girl get it get it, which is an inside joke, haha. But they are so nice and so supportive over everything you do in dance. It is amazing I love these people :)haha so this is James. No we are not dating although he loves to pretend that we are engaged all the time. haha But this is my friend James and he is one of the greatest people I know! We hang out all the time *cough* because he likes my roommate :) but we talk and text and hang out all the time. It's a blast! I'm grateful to have such a great friend like him in my life here at college :)This is my roommate Jessica! Isn't she beautiful :) I love her to death and I am so glad that we were able to become friends the way we did :) She is one of the most amazing people I have met and we are already so close! She always keeps me happy and on my toes with the things she says to me! We are so alike and I have had so many fantastic, funny, great, spiritual, and so on and so forth nights with her! Love this girl to death :) She is one of my best friends :)
This is my wonderful, fantastic, beautiful, charismatic best friend! She is fantastic and we have been friends since we were 5 years old. How can we not be close you tell me? What I love is that no matter how long we are apart or what happens nothing ever changes in our friendship. She is always her and I am always me. Forever :) it is fantastic. This girl has done so much in my life and we have been through so much together. I will always be so thankful to have her in my life as my example and person to look up to even though she is smaller ;) I love her to death she will forever be my best friend :)

So I really don't take pictures by myself so you will have to suffice with this :)
1. I don't think I will ever grow up. I am still a kid at heart and I would love to watch all the Disney movies over and over again then anything else!
2. Doing ballet since you are 5 years old and then trying to take a ballet class here at CEU is completely different. And slightly boring to me. So I am excited to be able to try new things in dance :)
3. I absolutely hate facial hair! My friends here at CEU that joined in in this No Shave November know how I feel.
4. I have lived in Las Vegas my whole life until now. I didn't know I would like the small towness so much! But I really do :)
5. I love being an ambassador :) Makes me really try and reach out to people that I normally wouldn't even try to talk to. It's nice to try and reach beyond myself.
6. My roommate Jessica is the greatest and we literally stay up till 2 or 3 in the morning talking even though we are exhausted and want to sleep. We just can't shut up it seems. I feel lucky to have such a great roommate :)
7. I tend to overdue the smiley faces. It happens with my happiness I guess hahahaha!
8. I have made bets with friends that I wont be married in 2 1/2 years. When I accomplish that I will get a milkshake :)
9. I have always wanted to go to Italy. Especially to go there on a mission. I know it would be extremely hard with the pope being there and what not. But the fact that they are building a temple in Italy... I wanna go :)
10. I am a little obsessed with musicals :) They make me happy which is why I am so happy that I have Taralynn as another roommate because that's all she listens to :)
11. When I get married and go on my honeymoon. I want to go to San Francisco or New York just so I can go see Wicked! Is that a little bad?
12. I tend to like all music. But I absolutely love just soft acoustic sounds. :) Which is why Joshua Radin is my favorite artist.
13. I really really want long hair. Which makes me so depressed that I have short hair! So my goal is to actually grow it out!
14. I was a nanny for a couple of years and I absolutely loved it! But it made me realize that I shouldn't rush what I have now. So I am grateful to be a college student living life :)
15. Pink and Brown are my favorite colors. And they have been my favorite colors since I was in middle school. It makes me wonder if my colors will ever change?

Tangled :)

So over this Thanksgiving Day weekend home in Vegas :) Jenni and I decided to go see a movie. I still have yet to see Harry Potter and I did want to see that this weekend. So my whole plan was to go see that with Jenni. Turns out that the day she saw it was on Thanksgiving with her family and I really didn't want to miss out on that time with my family so I declined and we both decided that we would go see a movie tomorrow. So here is the day and we both decided since she saw Harry Potter the day before, that we would watch Tangled. It looked like a super cute movie and I had already wanted to see it so we said why not. :)
I have to say that this movie was super duper cute and is completely worth seeing. I was kinda sketchy about seeing it and just waiting for it to be like every other Disney movie. But it was so cute and had a good story about dreams and such :) lol but I really really really enjoyed it. And now I really really really want the soundtrack. haha the music was good too :)
Totally recommend seeing it :)

I really like this song in the movie :)

Boyce Avenue

Okay can I just admit my obsession with Boyce Avenue. I think my roommate Jessica is so sick of me listening to them, but what can I say they are ridiculously amazing!
So if you know me you know that you can basically take any song and make it an acoustic version with an airy mans voice and I am in heaven! Honestly like John Mayer, Matt Nathanson, and Joshua Radin. Nobody knows Joshua Radin but he will be my future husband someday... okay so not really but a girl could only dream right :)
So since I have recently discovered Boyce Avenue I have listened to most of the songs... which are mostly covers but they really are amazing :) I like them :)
So that is my recommendation to all of those who love them acoustic songs :)

In Love...


I am officially in LOVE with this song. I did like it when Katy Perry sung it but now I love it. I love the word changes, I love how it's acoustic, I love how he sings, and basically I love everything about this! Amazing!

Being an Ambassador

So my title starts off as this because I am doing ambassador work right now... or at least I'm supposed to. I kinda took a break :) but let me tell you about being an ambassador. I went into this thinking ya you know it'll be some work but I can handle it and I can, but I will tell you what I had no idea how much work comes into being an ambassador here at CEU. For the past two weeks I have been practically gone due to College Fairs in Las Vegas, High School Tours for Beaver and Cedar City, and Eagle Experiences which are every Friday this month except for the week fo Thanksgiving. So is ambassadors running my life right now... I answer yes. I have missed a lot of school because of it which means I now have to make up a lot of work. Now I may sound like I am complaining a lot about it, but in reality I think this is the most wonderful and life fullfiilling experience I have had.
Being an ambassador doesn't just mean going to different high schools and having kids come by the school to just show them what CEU is all about. I have had to be put in one of the most time consuming jobs in ambassadors that has taught me about being responsible, putting others first, putting my foot down when people take advantage, being organized, and reaching beyond what I thought I could possibly reach.
I have learned so much this year not only just because of the classes I have taken, but I have learned more about how I work and how I react to stressful situations. I have learned to take charge and make people listen. I have learned to reach out to others and to be enthusiastic to those who need it. I have learned to be a friend and a guidance to those that need me. I have learned oh so much about who I am and who I want to be just from joining the ambassador program. I wouldn't dare not tell anyone about this school and what it does for people. How much the school and these programs such as the ambassadors does for its' students. I can honestly say that I love CEU and being apart of the Ambassador program makes it even better :)
