Heidee's Humorous History

07 July 2011

{Independence Day} :)

"Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there."-{Star Spangled Banner}

The 4th of July has always been my favorite holiday. I'm not sure why. It just is. Maybe it's because my birthday is always 2 days after. ;) I'm not sure. I thought that I would tell you all about my wonderful 4th of July. It was on a Monday this year. Which, for some odd reason I like it that way. It's not like I work that day or something, so... I don't know why I like it, but I do. :) To start it off, I did my nails to match the 4th of July Holiday. :)

Pretty cute, huh??? Yeah. I thought so. :) I picked it out myself (Obviously)

So my day started out with... cleaning. Yup. lots of it! It's not my favorite thing in the world, but my mom loves things to be neat and tidy. So after a whole morning of cleaning, I finally had the opportunity to get ready. :) Yay! :) And then guess what we did???? Lunch at.... FIVE GUYS! :) Woo!!! :) :) I love five guys. After lunch we had time to clean and get ready for a BBQ at our house. :) My grandma and grandpa came, along with my aunt and uncle. It was awesome! :) We celebrated my birthday, but. I can give more details on that later. :)

Then the celebrations of the 4th began. One of my neighbors did fireworks for I swear 4 hours. and they weren't just the normal fireworks, they were the legit, pretty sure still illegal, fireworks. It was insane!

But, all in all, I enjoyed it. :) It was a great day! :)

Until next time

Peace & Blessings. :)

"Bond" Fire... :)

"You don't by chance have six fingers on your right hand?" "Do you always begin conversations this way?"-The Princess Bride

So, Yesterday my Singles Ward had what was called a "Bond Fire". I decided the other day that I should at least try to like this new ward. Because, I'm pretty sure that everyone from the old singles ward (Antelope Hills) hates it. hahaha. This is just and assumption, so it may not be true, but....it probably is... :)

Anyway, I decided that I would invite my friend Niki. She isn't in that ward. But I figured 'hey, I wanna do something with her anyway, and if it ends up being lame... we can leave and go do something else!' Brilliant, right?? :) So we go there, and we kinda just sit off to the side while we are waiting for my sister and her friend to come. So we are all by ourselves. But then guess what happened?? yes... the Elder Quorum President came over and talked to us. I'm sure he means well. But.... yeah. :) So he sits and talks to us, the entire time! Now. by now you may be asking, why The Princess Bride quote at the top? Well.. Because the "Do you always begin conversations this way?" would have work perfectly with him. Hahaha. He would just randomly say, "Okay, Heidee trivia time, what is Heidee's favorite color?" And then whoever was closest won?? it was super weird! But there were some funny things that did happen while he was there. During the 'Sandee Trivia Time' the question was, "When was the last time that Sandee Climbed a Tree?" and I was like "NEVER, she only has one hand." and he said.... HAHAHAH "are you serious?" and we like "You didn't notice???" and he said "No! I meant like you've never climbed a tree!" Hahaha. And then, this is the best part. He like kept going back and getting more food! I think he ate at least 4 hot dogs and 2 hamburgers. And at one point he said. "My manhood is telling me that I have to eat all of this now." so he was trying to eat everything the whole time. And then finally he said "Would you think less of me if I don't finish this?" and me and niki said in unison, "yes!" hahaha. It was great.

So we finally decided that it was time to go. :) So we went and got frozen yogurt, and then started watching Supernatural. It was super fun! :)

That's my events of the day!
Until my next adventure!
Peace & Blessings!

{Updates}

So I know that I totally wrote a super long post yesterday. But I thought that I would update you with some of my past fears.. hahaha.

So my books aren't going to cost as much as they used to. Hurrah! :) They finally posted the fall 2011 books needed. The weird thing is that my english class tells me to choose a book from a list of 4. Ummm. how is she going to teach out of four different books? The one that I was going to get doesn't have any used ones. So maybe i'll just pick the cheapest one like everyone else. hahaha. I for surely don't even know. BUT.. my music of world cultures book hasn't even been printed yet. That happened to me last year in my TBE class. and the class totally sucked because they didn't even know how to teach out of the new books. so this should be interesting. Anyway.. I can get my physiology one for super cheap on amazon. The only super expensive one is my zoology one. And they don't have a used one at the book store either, so maybe i'll just buy that one on amazon too.

Welp. That's my update. aka blab time :)

Peace & Blessings.

This is how my head is right now. {My Thoughts} :)

"Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do." -John Wooden

{School}

Well. School is kinda freaking me out right now. Why? You might ask. Well. That's because it's super expensive. My scholarship only lasted a year, and I just found out that the scholarship I applied for was denied because they ran out of funds. (That's comforting).. SO, that is why it's scaring me. To look ont he bright side of things. Through this experience, I now know when to apply for a scholarship for the year 2011-2012. So that's good. :) I am also super nervous about books this year. I was looking online to see how much they would be. And guess what? My Music of World Cultures book is like $200. WHA????? I'm used to spending like $300 for all of them. But that's just nuts! So, in other words. I really need to find a new job that will give me a ton of hours, with a ton of money.... eek. This should be fun! Everytime I share something like this everyone says "Don't your parents help you out." And I say "I'm sure they would help me. But I would pay them back. I value education more if I'm the one paying for it." I honestly truly believe it. If it wasn't my money that was coming out. I wouldn't value it as much.

This upcoming semester I am taking English 2010. Music of World Cultures. Human Biology. & Phisiology. Oh, and piano lessons. and guess what??? If I pass all of these classes {Which i will} I will have 53 credit hours! And I only need 60 to get my associates! YEAH! :) So because of this. In spring Semester, I am going to take Anthropology, Psycology, the part 'd' of TBE, a photography class (i'm hoping), and then probably an intro to gerentology class. :) I'm actaully really excited about this. And I will tell you why. I realized the other day. That if I stay 'on task' and work really hard, I could have my doctorate in like 5 years! AH! Do you even understand how awesome that is? I think that it is AMAZING! :) Is it weird that I don't even have my associates, and yet i'm already looking towards a doctorate? I kinda hope not. The only thing stopping me remotely from doing my doctorate is that that's A LOT of money. Grad school in an of itself is like 5 times the price of undergrad. So that should be interesting. BUT, I guess that it all works out. :)

Another part of school that I could tell you about is that Social Work is feeling really, really good. I haven't even been accepted into the program, and I'm so excited for it. I was worried for the longest time that I was just doing it because I saw how much Sandee liked it. But guess what? Sandee has to read out of this DSM book, which is a diagnosing disorders book. And I told her that I would read out loud for her. And it was SOOO interesting. I don't know what it is about it, but I find it so entertaining. It's moments like those that make me think that yes, this is for me. Which is AWESOME! :) I love that feeling!

{Hair}

Yes, I am back on this subject, but it's not exactly the same thing. :) I have been trying to curl my hair lately. Don't get me wrong, it is possible. And there are many ways like I like best because they stay in for like 3 days straight. :) Haha But I love those curly waves that everyone has, and for some reason, I can't get it to work on my hair. It drives me absolutley bazako. I was watching this girls youtube channel, and she shows how she did it. So I got all excited and me and Sandee decided that we would try it. So i try it. And it. will. not. stay. in. By the end of the day, it is still there, but! it's very 'beachy' as sandee would say... So I don't know.

I heard that the clipless curling irons make amazing curls! But they are so expensive, so..... I don't know if i even want to try it. If someone bought it for me, I so would. But i'm not going to spend $80 on curling irons. That's so ridiculous!!!!!! So, for now I may be sticking to my straight hair or the spiral curling iron.

{New Movies}

So, I have gotten a few new movies since my last update. My new ones, I am absolutly in love with! :) Woo! I got Ever After, The Princess Bride, and

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World!!! I have watched them all and they are all so awesome!!!!!! :) Scott Pilgrim is So good! I just thought of a movie that I need to put on my list. Secret Window. Have you all seen it? If not, you really should!

{Jobs}

I know that i've kinda already covered this. But I am in the process of looking for a new job. I have thought of tons of places that I would work. But for some reason I always get nervous when it comes to applying for new jobs. I honestly don't know why. All I know is that I do. So i think that I am going to apply to FYE, Michaels, Hobby Lobby, Roberts, Deseret Book, Seagull Book, and most recently I've been thinking about applying at Moore's restaraunt. I'd have to make quite a bit to go there. Because I would spend so much money on gas. It would be ridiculous! But who knows. Maybe that is the job for me. :)

{Institute}

I have been a very bad person. Hahaha. I haven't gone to institute for so long! I have been in the Chorale at the Ogden Institute. So pretty much, I bet that I haven't got credit even now. I'm almost positive that I've missed more than 5 times. And I bet that 4 is even past credit. I'm thinking that I may go tonight. The only problem with that is that I've missed so many, so I don't know the songs, and the day that they are singing, I have to teach in Relief Sociey... maybe I will talk to the teacher tonight about maybe getting music or something. Honestly it has been my fault that I haven't gone.. we will see.

{Last Thoughts}

This is getting long, So I think that I am going to cut it off around now. I love my life! My family is Awesome! I love my new friend! {I'm glad I found her!}

Until Next time

Peace & Blessings!!

Dilemmas.....

So. As usual, my mind has been driving me crazy. I have one dilemma going on right now. Can you guess what that is? Well... it's my hair. As most of you know, I cut my hair and donated it to Locks of Love around may of last year. {wow... it's already been a year. That's nuts} and I LOVED how it looked short!! Now as I look at my pictures from then, I almost want to cut it again.

But then at the same time. I really want it super long like it was in my senior pictures.

Dilemma? I say yes. I think for now I will just keep it how it is. It's kind of fun to see the adventure that it goes on while it tries to grow out. You know, like to see what hairstyles look good on what lengths. I think that it's super cool.

Wanna know what I just realized. Satan sucks!!! Well... I didn't just realize that, but I remembered it today. I think that Satan tries to freak us out over stuff that isn't a big deal, or to make us think that things are happening when they really aren't. Maybe he just wants us to make sure that Heavenly Fathers plan doesn't work. Well... I've decided that I'm not going to let him get to me. I am going to keep continuing what I am doing. Because I know that it is the right thing and that it is bringing me much joy. Well... I know that that was a random rant. But hey, we all have them, yes? Well. I believe that that is all for today. Enjoy. :)

Peace & Blessings!

Isn't Life Great???

So I've decided that I love life. I really, really do. I love that I have family that loves and cares for me! And I love that I have a family that I can love and care for!!!

Have you ever been in this mood where you are like "Life is against me."?? I know that I have. But these past couple days, I've realized that my Heavenly Father is looking out for me. And that he wants the best for me.

Sometimes having friends is super hard. You get along for a while, but then you realize that things aren't going the way they should, so you end it. Well. For me, it seemed that that happened more often then not. Sad huh? Well. guess what? I have a new friend. At first it just felt normal. Meeting a new person happens every day, right? Wrong. You know, it's like the saying "God doesn't give us what we want, He gives us what we need." I am a firm believer of this now! He gave me what I needed. And I am eternally grateful for it.

That is my thought of the day.

Until next time

Peace & Blessings. :)

I Blame My Sister(s).... {Nail Polish}

So, as of lately, my sister Sandee has been totally addicted to nail polish. And since she can't exactly paint her own nails. I have kinda got 'sucked into' painting mine too. I used to paint my nails a lot as a kid. But.. once I started playing the piano and violin, I stopped taking the time, because it would bug me when they were long. Although I wouldn't like to admit this, I am going to. I actually kinda like having all of this nail polish. Maybe it's because I find the color titles hilarious. Or maybe it's because I agree with Sandee when I say that they look nice when they are painted. Either way, I'm stuck. Doesn't it seem like nail polish didn't have cool names up until now? I have all this old nail polish that is just numbers for their colors. LAME! Well. I guess that I will now show you what NEW one I Have got. Key Word in this sentence is New. These are the ones that Sandee has bought me in the past few months. {Don't worry. It makes me a little sick too.}
