I Can Smell Your Fear

Wednesday, October 24th
Okay so, I'm going to post about this past Monday (22nd) and Tuesday (23rd)
The significant events of Monday include that of which occured just after FHE. So, after my role as FHE Father, 3 of my daughters and 1 of my sons decided to leave the Haunted Halloween Gingerbread House we made the previous week on my doorstep. Well, I heard them in the the apartment across the way, so I shoved the house in front of their door. When Morgan saw this, she came knocking on my door once again, and I answered, and next thing I know, she's trying to get me to eat a candy corn from the house that was now on the floor. I said "no" of course, but she said, "if you eat one, then I'll eat one." Okay, I was being totally serious, and so we counted to three to put the candy corn in our mouth. Well my candy corn had some peanut butter stuck to the end, so when I put it in my mouth, it stuck to my finger, and fell out of my mouth. TOTAL ACCIDENT! Morgan then proceeded to throw some Haunted Halloween Gingerbread House at me, and I was NOT about to let this go. I threw some back at her. It soon became a ten minute long war of throwing gingerbread at each other, candy corn, cookie dough, peanut butter, and somehow shaving cream got involved as well. In conclusion, big mess and it was all Morgan's fault. Also, my stairwell is dirty. Very dirty. See picture below of what I looked like.
Significant Events of Tuesday (Yesterday): Okay, so last night, Kellie, Chad, Christian, and Me went up to SLC to go to this haunted warehouse Halloween scare thing. To sum it up: scariest thing EVER! When we first got there in line, there were people in scary costumes, and their soul purpose were to scare the people in line. Well, they came up and tried to scare me, and of course I got scared, so one of the guys pointed at me and signaled all the other scary people to come get me, and then they all ganged up on me and got in my face and SCARY!!! i just sat on the floor and hid my face. Pretty Pathetic! I know...Also in the beginning they have like this things in the waiting room, and Freddy Crougar man comes out of the furnace and talks, and there was a scare with 'The Ring' girl! When we finally went in, it was SOOO scary! One of my favorite parts was when you go on this ledge and it's about a 100 ft. drop down, and the wall starts moving and starts tilting you towards the edge (then when you fall, it's just a mirror reflecting the way down)! so freaking scary! Another trippy part was when you walk on this little walkway down this tunnel that's spinning, so your mind plans games on you and makes you think that your spinngng, and it disorients you and confuses you so bad! I fell and tripped a couple times trying to get to the end! Also, this vampire lady really liked me...she said I was sweet! Even though she was referring to my blood, and that was kind of creapy. One of the scariest parts was when this clown was just in this room playing around, and then he came up behind me and and whispered in my ear and said, "I'M GOING TO RIP YOUR HEAD OFF!" OH MY GOSH! I totally lost it and RAN RAN RAN! I was soooo scared!!!!!! There was also the scary "Saw" guy, and "The Ring" girl was inside. There was a funny part though. Johnny Depp's character (Captian Jack Sparrow) in Pirates of the Carribbean was there, and I was like "LOOK IT'S JACK SPARROW!", and he said, "NO!...JOHN SPARROW!" It was pretty funny! It was so scary, but totally worth the money. It was set up so well, and it was really cool, and it took about an hour to walk through all these mazes and crazy puzzles! WAY COOL! I want to go again HAHA, even though I was scared for my LIFE!!!

So In My Life Now...

Friday, October 19th
So, it's been pretty much FOREVER since I last updated. In fact, I haven't updated since my London/Paris/Rome adventures.
Well, to catch you up, the day after I came home I went to a freaking JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE concert with Monica. It was only...INCREDIBLE! It was so good, the production was amazing...and the day I went was the day they were filming his concert for the HBO special. Our original seats were crappy, like...for real 2nd row from the very back. We scoped some seats up closer to the stage, so we went down a level and sat there. We were so afraid we would get caught, and I felt like we almost did like a thousand times. Whatever, we jumped up $150 worth of seats, so our view was amazing. Basically, it was one of the best concerts I have EVER been to. And, Justin told me I was his best friend!
Also, while home back in the lovely Princeton, New Jersey, I went back to work. It was so refreshing and wonderful to be back at work. I have missed it so so much! It gives me the most joy in the world to work with these kids.
Another big night for me was August 28th, because I had 4th row seats to Hilary Duff at Radio City Music Hall (where I too have performed before, my latin dance ow ow). I went with one of my best friends, Adele. Before going to the concert, we walked passed RCMH, and met her dancers and they were really nice. Anyway, this was definitely a smaller venue than Justin Timberlake, but the producation and everything was still INCREDIBLE. Plus, it's Hilary Duff AKA my Number 1. Better than LiLo (Lindsay Lohan), BS (Britney Spears), and the list goes on. The second song she sang was my favorite, "Getaway". She also had the BEST dance to her new song, "Dignity". I absolutely adored it! I Love Hilary. The End.
I flew back to Utah at the end of August, and started school on September 4th. And to my surprise, who was just hanging out (in rehab) only 10 minutes from where I live? Lindsay Lohan. Okay, so basically post-"Freaky Friday", I've only had the WORST luck with LiLo. IE: New Years (one of the worst days of my lifeeee). Anyway, I've also had the WORST luck out here. IE: I was shopping at the SAME store at the SAME time she was there...I probably walked passed her and didn't even realize it...Stupid Sean. Also, my friend invited me to go out for sushi one night at Happy Sumo, and I said I had too much homework so we should go another time...well who was there that night? LILO! Bahh...so frustrating. Not to mention all my friends have seen her too...ANYWAY.
My Dad came out to see me one weekend in mid September. We had a really great time. We went to a Princeton 1st Ward get together/reunion for veteran Princeton members. We also took a walk up near Bridal Falls. It was great.
Then, my family also came out in the beginning of October to visit during General Conference. The weather was crappy, but we didn't let that stop us! We had the best time EVER! It was so much fun! We went to Saturday Morning, Priesthood, and Sunday Morning Sessions. They were all really wonderful. One lovely little experience was when my Mom, Krista, and I broke into a shut down mall so that we could cut across to Temple Square. Lovely. Saturday afternoon, we drove down to Provo, so I could show my family the actual "Healing At Bethesda" painting. Then, Sunday Morning, my Mom and I were running late, so when we got to the Conference Center, they weren't letting anyone else in. We told them that Dad was inside saving us seats and one guy said, "Well he wont be holding them much longer." Grr...well then we talked to someone else, and they said "You need to find someone with a red badge." Okay. So, my mom asked someone for a red badge person, and I swear it was like code. All the sudden everyone was like, "This lady needs a red badge," "Get her a red badge." Then, we got let in and all was well again. Also, it's a good thing we got in on time on Sunday, because the Mo Tab sang my favorite song, "A Child's Prayer".
Other than those special events, I've just been going to classes (ELANG 223, ENGL 251, GEOL 101, CPSE 400, REL C 130, and REL A 211), volunteering at a school for children with autism on Monday and Wednesday mornings, hanging out with class friends, London friends, and of course Olive Garden friends.
That was just a nice little catch up.
'Till next time...
