Oh January...

So it just donned on me today... January is almost over! Where did the time go?! It honestly seems like yesterday I was just spending the day/night with friends celebrating New Years. Geeze, what a crazy month.

Lets see, a couple of Fridays ago Chad and I went to Pocatello to see My Bloody Valentine in 3D (since its the nearest 3D theater). We left around 3 (since its 1 1/2 hours south of Rexburg) and went to the 5:10 showing. We checked rotton tomatoes and it gave it a 5, so we thought it would be an AMAZING movie right?! It was R because of gore (slasher movie right?) and nudity. Usually this means some random boobs flopping around which you can easily avoid watchig. It was a classic slasher movie. Meaningless murders with hardly any plot. About 30 minutes into it though... theres about (I'm not kidding) 10 minutes of a girl running around completely naked. And the producers didnt hide anything. Yeah, so we walked out and asked for our money back. Well, the production company has a strict, "No cash back policy." Ha, so they KNEW people would walk out- right? So they gave us comp. tickets. What are we going to do with comp tickets to a theater in Pocatello?! Luckily I was able to sale them to a guy at work who wanted to see the movie; or else we would have been out $9 each. But the worst thing was, was that there was a family with kids around 12 in there. What are these parents thinking?!

Then we went to IHOP and waited 45 minutes for a Viva La French Toast- which we shared. AND the server was incredibly awkward. AND one of the other servers was trying to talk his way into hanging out with us for the night. Just a few reasons why I hate pocky.

After that we went to his sisters house just to say hi. His niece's name is Brooklynn and shes completely adorable (must run with the name). Heres a funny little tid-bit for ya. His sister was trying to figure out a name for her, and she thought, well, shes going to dance, so what name would look pretty on a jacket? and the name was Brooklynn. You know, all cursivey and such. Made me laugh.

That weekend I got this stupid stomach virus. I wont go into detail (your welcome) but basically I slept for about 70% of Saturday and Sunday, had stomach cramps (comparable to PMS cramps- the worst I've ever had) and lots of running to the bathroom- and like 2 1/2 of those HUGE gatorades, and a few crackers. I lost like... 8 pounds in 2 days. I vowed never to eat again... haha.

On Monday I was tired of being home so I forced myself out of the house. Of course I ended up in Rexburg but most of my friends were doing homework that they've procrastinated doing for well over a week (mind you, this was like the 2nd or 3rd week of class). So it was just Chad and me again. He wanted to go somewhere pretty and since I had never been to Teton/Jackson we made a road trip!

We got back pretty early so we decided to get a Red Box... ha. What a joke. There arent enough red boxes in Rexburg to supply the college students. So we ended up back at his apartment and watched Redemption (I think thats what its called) of 24. Basically its a 2 hour pre-movie thing to this seasons 24.

Let me be clear. I have had an aversion to 24 since the first episode. All I hear about is how amazing it is and the fans are well... fanatical. So, I've never watched it- until MLK day. The next week I watched the first 5 or so episodes of this season, and cant wait to watch todays new one.

I went shopping on... Tuesday?? with my friend Brett. Im so lame, after about an hour Im done anymore. What happened to my shop-o-holic-ism?

This last Saturday I had some fun! My friend Kristy and I went to this new restaraunt on the pier called Iggys. When we walked in I couldnt help but feel a slight twinge of recognition... like I had been there before. Only after I sat down did I realize, drrrr... whenever the family goes to Logan/Tremonton and we get dinner we usually end up in Logan at Iggys. I love their calzones. MMmmmmMmm. Afterwards we went to see Inkheart. Basically, I was kinda having a rough day but after I saw that movie, I was completely happy. It was so so so good. Im in love with Brendan Fraser. It had enough explosions to make the fellas happy, enough drama for the ladies, really good eye candy ;), and really good plot. It wasn't hockey or anything and just amazed me the entire way through.

So there you have it. This is pretty much what my life consists of outside of working all the time.


Waiting for the movie to start, looking sexy in our 3D glasses


At the Teton Dam. Again, we look sexy. (And Chelsea, I am indeed wearing the DKNY shirt I bought of ya!)


THE PRETTY TETONS! I have a pretty hilarious video of this too. Check out my windshield! What can I say, I live in Idaho- its a sin not to have a crack/chip in it.


No, this is not an engagement photo. We both just look super sexy.


This one isnt as blurry as the other one; and its cute too.

And on a "lets not start family rumors" note; Chad and I are not dating. We're just really close friends. Im still 100% single and loving it!

UPDATE!

So apparently... I seriously need to update this a little bit more often. But honestly my life is kinda boring. I work a lot and I play a lot... mostly in Rexburg which happens to be 45 minutes away from my house. Here are some awesome pictures!!!



My twin cousin Anna and I goofing around in Logan.



My best friend Chad and I at temple square... we drove down and back on the first day it snowed... brilliant I know right.
