School Work and Speed Runs

Well as I sit here at my desk wondering about life, space, the final frontier, and elementary science methods I decided to write a blog post since I said I would post more.  My very last year in school starts tomorrow and I am already doing homework.  Welcome to college for those not there yet.  I am actually trying to stay on top of my homework by doing some reading responses before school even starts.  Also this is the very first semester I actually have all my books before the semester starts so props to me XD  Vivi's new favorite spot in our whole house is right under my desk on my crochet blanket that I made a year ago.  It's so funny because once we get up and let her out of the bedroom she runs in there and sits down like "hey guys come in here and do stuff on these tall black things so I can sit under here and sleep."  She is a pretty funny dog.  Trent has been working on speed running The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time.  There are some major glitches in that game and the world record for completing the game the quickest was in 19 minutes and 15 seconds.  Trent has been practicing for a few weeks now and just did it in 31 minutes and 2 seconds.  We are the most interesting people in the world I bet! haha j/k we know we are pretty lame! But check this out for the major Zelda glitches.  Well wish me luck on starting school tomorrow!

This is the link to the world record for beating the game the quickest.

Vivi laying in the cords of our computers. She is so weird.

Trent mastering speed running.

Remember That Day

So.. Remember that day that I used to blog? Ya I kinda do. I totally suck at blogging though. I want to get good at it now though because I always have so many things cross my mind where I say to myself, "I should totally write that down." And then poof I don't and it totally disappears. Fly's away like a little birdie.  Well I think I am actually going to try.. I say this all the time but THIS TIME I am going to succeed. (no one hold me to this please.) Well it's been a year since I have blogged and I just want to announce that in that year we have moved into an upgraded apartment with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, got a puppy named Vivi, and I now work two jobs at the coolest places ever! So can't complain, life is pretty awesome. Oh wait it would be even more awesome if I didn't have to go back to school on Monday but it's my very last year of school and I miss all my school friends. So I will be trekking back to school on Monday and grudging through the piles of homework that will come along with it. To end this post I will post pictures of my puppy.

This was Vivi when she was about 7 weeks old

No she doesn't sleep on our bed with us but in the morning when Trent leaves she he will sometimes put her on the bed to cuddle with me until I get up and she decided that her favorite spot was on our pillows. She thinks she is the Queen.

I guess this was the most comfortable sleeping position that day.

This is one of my favorite pictures. The big Standard poodle is my sisters dog Zoey and then there is Vivi up there. I think they will be best friends.

March Madness!!


Don't let the title confuse you, this has nothing to do with basketball! It's about the crazy upcoming month of March that me and Trent get to deal with. yay..... well most of it is yay...  So this month we have so much going on from lot's and lot's of homework, to my spring break and Trent not getting one, the many trips to Ogden we have to make almost every weekend, and the many reasons why we have to go down to Ogden.

This last weekend we were able to make our way down to Ogden on Friday and spend the weekend up there with our families playing lots of games with everyone and getting no homework done.  During this week I have a historical book report due by Thursday and I started reading my book yesterday.  So tomorrow is going to be one crazy day of making a book report! Then this weekend we will be heading back down to Ogden on Friday after I go to my group interview to make it into the education program in the fall.  I will find out if i get into the program probably sometime either after that or this summer... not quite sure how it works... that night we will also have to make it to my friend, Courtney Burrows wedding reception! I'm so excited for her! Being married is fun!  And then on Saturday Sara's little baby Alli will be turning 1 and we will be celebrating with a party.

After that crazy fun weekend we will be back in Provo for the week days and I will be going crazy just doing homework all through spring break while Trent goes to school and does the work thing like always.  Also on the 15th of March the Monster Guru kickstarter that Gimo Games has been pushing will end.  Hope we get all the money we need.  Then that weekend will be the first throughout March that we will be staying in Provo.

The next week is another full week of tons of homework due and then we will be making our way down to Ogden for the midnight premier of the HUNGER GAMES on the 23rd! Can't freakin wait!!! Super excited for that.. it's crazy to think that its already here.  So we will be in Ogden from Thursday that weekend all the way until Sunday and we will be bringing our little hamster Bean with us since its 4 days we will be away.

Then the last week of March will be fun as on that Friday we will be going to a Jazz game with the Burke family and watching General conference.. It will be a crazy month but we are so excited for a lot of things!!! I just haven't blogged this in a while and thought hey this will be a fun month for us, I should tell the world! :) haha j/k but seriously.... well can't wait for the HUNGER GAMES

One whole summer = no time to blog!

        So I have gone all summer without posting one thing on my blog, well actually I think I might have posted one thing. Well not something to really celebrate about though.  Well lets see, Trent and I have been married for about 3 1/2 months now.  Which is crazy because I seriously feel like I have been married to him my whole life.  He is my best friend! I love him so much!
       The one sad thing I learned this summer was how far away I am from my family.  Being away from them and not seeing them like every day has really been the toughest thing for me this summer.  I just know for sure that when we are done with school we are going to move a lot closer to them.  In other words school has started and me and Trent have started our super busy lives of school and work!  Good thing we go to bed with each other at night, because if we didn't we probably would never see each other.
        UVU has been a big adjustment.  I was so used to Weber State where you like had a few more breaks and not a lot of homework ever, mostly a lot of testing.  Well at UVU all my classes consist of a hand written assignments due every day of class and big papers due every two weeks, plus some tests thrown in the mix! And I also don't care what anyone says about this but I swear that UVU is a much larger campus then Weber State! I am walking so much farther to get to my classes now!
        Now that I have somewhat blogged again I am going to blog more I promise! And I promise lots of pictures next time I get on.  Plus I still have to go through my wedding pictures and post them somewhere for people to see.  Ya that is on the list for sure.  Next time though!

The Server is Down!!!

So Long time no Blog... Well while I have still been on the job hunt my days have been full of thoughts like, "what in the heck am I going to do today?"  So every day is different.  Lately I was introduced to this online game called League of Legends (LOL) by my brother and now I always want to play it!  So right now I would be playing that instead of doing this but unfortunately the server is down or really busy.  :( so sad.. But today has been quite eventful! I got ready for the day, read this awesome twitter post and watched the awesome Bioshock Inifinite Demo trailer. My Jaw was hanging from my face literally!  It looks insane!  The combat looks spectacular and the story line looks very intriguing.  It's the kind of game to get your heart racing that's for sure!  If you're at all interested or have ever heard of Bioshock then you can check it out.  http://www.joystiq.com/2011/07/08/bioshock-infinite-footage/
 Also I was going to make a trip to the DMV and I couldn't find it, then when I stopped to ask for help they informed me that the DMV is closed on Fridays.  So that's one  thing I can't check off.  Dang it! Also I learned how to Crochet a Flower today! they are so cute and I'm so excited to keep learning new things like that. :)
 Well Hopefully the server will come back on soon because I want to play some LOL!

Seven Peaks

Yesterday was so great! So Trent's work got invited to go to Seven Peaks yesterday by another Gameing Company and they rented the whole place out for like 3 hours.  So we went yesterday night and had such a great time!  That was probably like the first and only time we wouldn't have to wait in any lines! We are probably not going to go back when you do have to wait in lines.  We went on the Boomerang Slide like 7 times in a row, and floated down the Lazy river without anyone else in it.  Also we got to meet some awesome new people  and spend some fun time together.  Hopefully we can do the same thing next year! Thanks Chair for inviting us to Seven Peaks!

It's been a while....

Well it's official I'm the worst blogger ever! Haha I guess I just got really busy planning the wedding and time just got away from me.  Well we are finally in our new apartment in Orem, we have been married for two and a half weeks and have been loving every bit of it.  I must admit that it was a little different for both of us to not have to say goodbye at night and drive home, but thats the best part.  My favorite part is going to bed and when I get cold (which I always do when I go to bed at night) I can cuddle up to Trent for a few minutes get warm and then go to sleep. :)  Well the wedding was so great, seriously the best day of my life, and now that I think of it, it seems to be all a blur.  I had planned and planned for everything to be perfect for 3 months and then on the one day it all comes together, the Bride and Groom don't really even get to enjoy half the stuff they planned. Haha but thats the fun of it, and I was very excited to here that all our guests enjoyed the wedding.  Well since I never posted any Bridals (once again because i'm a failure)  I will post some now.  Besides I don't have the wedding pictures quite yet either, but they are coming soon. 


 

So here are some of the Bridals that took place back in May but once I get the actually wedding photos then I will post them as well.
              So as far as being a wife,  it's been a fun adventure, I clean the house, and cook dinner (which I am learning to do) and of course being there for my husband when he comes home.  Also this week has been the crazy week of sickness! First my little sister Clara got sick then I got it, then Trent, then my Mom, and then Gavin and Adam.  Everyone in our families are just getting sick.
   We went to the fireworks at Weber High on Saturday night with friends and family and we got to see a lot of our old friends!  It was so great to see everyone! Father's day weekend was a rather sad one actually, thinking it was going to be a pretty good weekend me and Trent went to my cousins house to get hair cuts when I called my mom to see if they were home.  My mom answered and gave me some really sad news,  my 14 year old dog Lady had been put down on Saturday.  She wasn't doing very good and her body finally gave out on her.  So that was really sad and sudden.  But we tried to make the best of our fathers day weekend.  In loving Tribute to our dog Lady,  you were such a great dog and a loyal friend to us all.  You will always be with us.
