Come On Down...


So on Monday my sister's sister-in-law invited us to go to a taping of the Price is Right in L.A. I was so excited the night before that I could barely sleep. I remember watching that show everyday during the summer's growing up. Channel 2 at 10:00! So to finally have the opportunity to go was AMAZING!!!! We left Meg's house around 10:45 and drove down to the city. we had to be there by noon so we figured the taping was at 1:00pm...NOPE, try 4:00pm. So we had to wait on these benches for hours, luckily there was this snack bar to buy food because we weren't prepared to wait that long. Around 2 :30 they start to interview people to see who they are going to pick! Once we were inside i was surprised at how small the studio was. The show that we went to was there Halloween show so they gave a lot of cool stuff... like 4 cars and trips and stuff. It was fun because the lady right next to us got picked and ended up winning a car and a trip and going on to the showcase, but she overbid! And Drew Carrey was so funny and talked a lot to the audience, which I thought was good. Overall a very fun day!

Update: Change

So I haven't posted anything for awhile because I haven't been doing anything that great but all of the little things have added up to a lot of change for me, more then I've seen in a while.

The first change happened on August 7th when I finished my internship! After 3 months of boredom and professional time wasting I completed it! I would like to thank Shellie for continually emailing me throughout the day and Christine who sits on the other-side of the wall. Without both I may have never survived!


This is a picture of my cubicle. I had a lot of time on my hands the last week and yes that is Breaking Dawn to the left of computer. I was able to all but finish it and get paid for it!!! And all of those boxes are full of employee handbooks... the one project I completed in the time I was there. I know you are all jealous!

The next change happened the next day when I moved out of my apartment in Sugarhouse and moved my stuff to my parents house in Provo. It was so sad because it was the end of Liz and I as roommates. Liz and I met when we both moved into our Sandy apartment. We both had a mutual friend. And that was that.. we have pretty much been best friends and inseparable since!!! She was the easiest person I've ever lived with!

I love you Lizzie!

The next change happened August 12th when I came to California for a month! My brother-in-law needed help while his secretary was on her honeymoon and given that I'm unemployed and homeless I thought it was a good solution! So I came down here to help out for a few weeks and then to hang out for a few after that! So far it has been good, except for the awesome flu that knocked me down and out for 3 days! But I am having a great time and went to the singles ward today, very overwhelming but nonetheless a good experience. And Shellie is coming down in 11 days to play and be a tourist with me!!! Hollywood here we come :)

Ava and the boys at the beach the night I got here. It was freezing and the tide was really high. They are too cute I can't get enough of them, especially Ava, I wish I had a video camera to record her expressions to things! Adorable!!!! :)

The weirdest thing about all this is that I am not starting school again. Summer is over. Back to school has begun and I don't have to go. It is a really weird feeling to know that! Weird but good and I am enjoying the break!

So that is the update on my not very exciting life!!!! Enjoy :)
