Good News Minute

this is probably one of my favorite/least favorite things about Relief Society.. on one hand I get suuper excited to hear whats going on in peoples lives.. and who doesn’t like a little positivity in the morning?… on the other hand tho sometimes I start feeling really uncomfortable/embarrassed for people, this usually happens when it starts getting ridiculous. For example in my freshman ward every week it was the same thing “my brother gets home from his mission and he is hot” .. “my brother gets home from his mission and he is hotter than her brother” .. “my brother leaves on his mission and he is gooorgeous” that one has got to be my favorite tho.. yay awesome, gorgeous brother leaving? Cuz that’s what every girl wants... to write a missionary! Fun times waiting 2 years!... lets not even mention the fact that all the girls felt the desire to talk about the looks, isn’t calling ur own brother hot a little weird.. just a tad bit…. Wow anyways that was a tangent and actually relates to nothing! Awesome. Moving on.

These past couple days/weeks have been so great. And since my relief society usually forgets about good news minute.. Im going to have my own. Right now.

1 ) I have been hanging out with my bff Chantel a lot more lately which always makes me smile! We have had lots of funny times and adventures plus we have the same sense of humor so when we are together I cant help but smile and laugh! This weekend we went to a dance party where we took best friend pictures with miley cyrus, and danced like fools, and watched fools dance!

this is us at the dance party.. ain't we cuute!

We also took a “taking a break from life” day and ate chick food [like girly foods, not chicken food, that would be gross], tried stealing peoples leftovers, and watched our good friends on the bachelor. That show is quite entertaining watching alone, but having someone elses commentary added was even better! This reminds me.. I wish I could watch every television show with Ellen Degeneres cuz pretty sure that would make reality tv 750 times more entertaining. Just sayin.

2 ) I have amazing friends!
Like this girl:


[we are making cement dontcha know!]
Who knew after 18 years we would still be best friends? Pretty sure I can go to her for anything, and do go to her for anything. As of late we have been sitting on our butts watching the Olympics together and it has made for some some pretty good times. Nothing better than a best friend, frozen yogurt, and male figure skaters, not to mention the increasing amount of American pride!
3 ) I had a valentines Day date! Lezzy style. With these gorgeous chicas!

We went and saw the movie “Valentines Day” [slightly cliché I kno] and took pictures and ate more frozen yogurt [yeah we like it a lot don’t judge] and laughed and cried and hugged and leaped. Well I don’t know if anyone cried, but laughing was definitely done. And the movie was really cute, and overflowing with some good lookin people.. which is always a plus.
4 ) this story was on the news last night which just made me laugh and laugh and laugh. Let me share:
These 2 men. Roman and Reyes, were wanted for shooting a police officer and the police heard they were hiding out in their relatives house, so the SWAT team goes and surrounds that house, and then has the police evacuate the rest of the neighborhood. However, Roman & Reyes were actually hiding in 2 houses down, so they got a police escort out of the house, and out of the neighborhood, as the SWAT team tear gases the wrong house! Bahahahaha. Oh man I bet those 2 men were just dying as the police escorted them to safety! [they caught the guys the next day.. don’t worry im not an awful person happy criminals are on the loose]
5 ) I lost $40 yesterday.. which is absolutely NOT good news. It slipped right out of my pocket. : ( BUT! That does mean that I made someone elses day! I just hope whoever found it jumped up and down, maybe skipped a little, told all their roommates, and bought something really good, not like drugs or Pokemon cards or something.
6 ) Im just making some life changing decisions right now and everything is just falling right into place, and I feel good! Things are going to turn out great and Im excited! But all that is for another post. Much too long.


yeah mine is definitely not going to be average!
