before i leave

just one last picture so you wont forget what i look like :)

so i decided i should probably write on here one more time before i leave on the mission. what to talk about..... all i can think of is to say im going to miss you guys so much. we played games on sunday.. sorry nate you couldn't be there.. but it was so fun. my step-dad couldn't stop talking about how fun "those guys" are. it made he night and i don't think i could have had a better last sunday night before the mission. honestly it was perfect. thanks guys. im so sad that i didn't get to see nate one last time before i left. but its my luck. it always happens to me. i always miss seeing the people most important to me right before i leave somewhere. huh maybe i should just stay in place and it will stop happening to me. or i could just go to Africa... so i don't have much to write but i wanted to put something on here. just so you guys don't forget about me :) love you all and i hope to get at least one letter from each of you... but more would definatly be accepted :) k LOVE YOU!!!!!! and i can't wait to serve the LORD!!! just in case i haven't told any of you that recently :)

i think i have an interesting brain

so i am writing on this blog to let you all know that i have officially declared myself a nerd. this is how i was able to come to this conclusion. first it came to me when i was in hawaii and i was walking to school and i decided that it would be fun to take my rubics cube with me on my walk.. so i went back into the house and all the way from the point to campus i worked on the rubic's cube. i got to the last side but couldn't finish it. i then proceeded to when walking through the halls keep my nose in a book becuase it was so good and make sure to not make eye contact with anyone. not because i didn't like them but because i didn't want to be inturupted in my reading. so after realizing those two incidents. i was thinking today about them again and then realized that those things could qualify me as a nerd. but what i spent 5 hours of my day today doing solidified my nerdiness ( is that a word?) i was on my computer imputing numbers into a program for taxes. now this may not sound like too much of a nerdy thing to do but i was really loving it! i mean i came home from working with my grandma and went right to the computer to "crunch numbers" and then i was inturupted because i had to go and get my mom but don't worry the second i got home i went right back to the computer... isn't that strange i got home at about 830 and i worked again on the numbers will about 1030. i didn't even move from my spot. isn't that nerdy? so yes... very pointless story that really doesn't have a point but i wanted to write on the blog.
also just in case you guys didn't realize it i am leaving into the MTC in two weeks... yes it is that close and the closer it gets the more nervous i become its like i always knew it was going to come. but i feel like its coming too fast but not fast enough. im not ready to be a missionary but i can't imagine doing anything else with the next year and a half with my life. so i guess that means im making the right decision ;) anyways i think thats enough rambling for one day :) miss you guys... and by that i mean nate and corey cause eventhough we live in the same city you still manage to advoid us (me and whit) at all costs :) hope you enjoy the werewolves.. and nate keep killin on the court!!!!! miss you all!!!!!!!!!!

i finally figured it out!

sooo I know im bad! i havent ever really used this correctly...and then i forgot my user name and im lame and boring and didnt want to write anything. but here i am! so be proud cami and nate!

so life....we will start with the family

court-13yrs. just made the first cut for the oylmpic develompment program, she is stoked! she has been getting up everyday for the past 3 months at 6 am to go to train with these super legit college trainers, she is the youngest one by like three years and she hangs with them! i am so proud of her! she also talked my mom in to coaching church volleyball so she could play that, and shes got my dad coaching the young womens basketball team! in short shes amazing! and will go far in life! im so proud of her!

trevor-is a mess...about a week ago i was sooo excited because he called me telling me he was coming out to utah next fall for school, half because of my mom and half cuz i thought he really wanted to change....turns out everyone has been lying to me...why!? i have no idea but at the beginning of this week i found out he ran out...cant really say he ran away is too old for that... and missed a very important meeting with his lawyer...STUPID! agh i love the kid so much and he just throws away EVERY chance he gets! it sooo frusterating! so theres that i had to get it out cuz its been bottled up inside...but i cant dwell on it or i just get angry

mom and dad are doing well and i love them both for all their strength and support

my life...well aparently i am a weakling with no veins in my left arm....i got denied to give plasma with corey after cami and i went to bed at 1 am and woke up at 6:45 am to get to the place at 7 am when they opened up....good thing they didnt open till 8....sooo whitney could not pass go and collect 70 dollars.... but neither could cami so i guess its cool lol

my camera is broken and i dont know what to do with my life! its sad! i mean i feel like im getting along ok...but i miss it! i feel in control with it somehow.... now that feeling is lost

school is interesting but hard... lots of reading and studying but not boring so thats good

boys...i had almost given up even just looking for boys...then one day last week it was like i had my eyes opened and low and behold i started seeing quite a few cuties this was exciting! lol then at the party cami and some of the girls and i went to...AMAZING! had it NOT been a party setting i might have been more friendly and talk to some of them...buttt i have learned my lesson...and its amazing how much u change and learn and grow from a situation...things i would have been attracted to b4 almost are a complete turn off to me now... i catch things like that all the time now my total oppinion about things have changed sooo much from freshman year...or even just last year...it insane! but its a good thing! i LOVE it!

i am teaching sunday school and im starting to love it! and have seen soooo many blessings in my life because of it! 

work....needs to pick up! i am only getting one shift a week and ummmm i hate it! but i did get really cool shirts the other day for $1.30 AMAZING!! 

dani and amber and i are in the process of looking for a place to live next year! kinda excited!

we want a puppy! that will be fun! em says shes coming to byu for the spring so she would live with us too! AWESOME! 

so this is really long and im tired now sooo maybe more later now that i know what im doing!

love you all and miss u nate and corey! (corey has been to cool to hang out with us since he found out his veins are better than ours!)

Sorry for the absence

So I forgot about the blog. Sorry. But i'm back. Christmas break was way tight.  I went down to Vegas for the BYU bowl game. It was cold and BYU got smashed, but it was cool to be in Vegas for a couple of days. Wild wild West. :-) I made it back to Oregon on Christmas Eve and had a great two weeks with my fam. My little brothers are gettin big, and one of them is a baller. He almost beat me in one-on-one, and he's only a sr. in high school. I think I'll be goin back home next month to watch my brother's senior night basketball game. I played a bunch of Tiger Woods on Wii, and let me say my golf game is legit. haha.  Not to mention my rock star drumming skills.  Bein home was awesome, and i wasn't way excited to come back to Utah. I have some good job offers back in Oregon from friends of the family, but there are no girls back home for me. (Maybe I need to move to Idaho, huh Nate?) So I'm back in Utah, reffin basketball and donating plasma to survive. Knowing I'll be leaving in a few weeks kinda hurts my chances of gettin a more steady job. Oh well, guess I'll just have to make Whit and Cami cook me food more. Nate, they were sayin the other day how much of a mooch I am and just made them cook for us all the time. They said they fed us all the time!!! I said that was bogus! They offered us their leftovers a few times, but they cooked for us like 5 times. And most of those were on big occasions. Thanksgiving, SuperBowl party, etc. So yeah, I guess you gotta chime in with your opinion on our free-loading selves. 

Anyway, back to the update. Actually, I think that's about it. I'm in utah, livin on a couch. Oh, hooked on prison break and lost. Stupid Dallas and Blair, got me started. . . oh well. At least they're good series. Unlike Charmed and House.   haha.  So there it is. My life, my life, my life. Oh, and check out Demetri Martin on youtube. He's a hilarious comedian. Some things never change.
