Eclipse

Okay, I know all these little girls get way to excited for the Twilight movies to come out. Every year, since they started coming out into theathers, my family gets tickets for the midnight showing for that movie. It's always been fun and I enjoy the experience of hanging with my family and watching these movies. Last night I got off work and went to the theater in Orem and met up with family members. It was way exciting this year because we has assigned seats and didn't have to worry about the hustle and bustle of trying to get a good seat. It was relaxing in taking our time to walk to our line to go to our theater and meeting up with the family. Once we were inside, our family went and got popcorn (kettle corn at the Orem theater is AMAZING) and then sat in our seats talking and having fun.

The movie was so good. It was the best out of the three. I personally thought at some parts it was just slow, but I was excited for the action scene because it's my favorite part in the book. I thought they did the fight scenes extremely well in this movie. The effects were so good.

I know a lot of people don't like the Twilight books or movies, but I do. I am very happy with this new movie and excited for it to come out on DVD and watch them some more.

ALSO in November Harry Potter pt 1 is coming out and I am SOOO excited for that movie to come out. Me and Kodei (my little cousin) are going to get midnight showing tickets! So excited for those last two movies to come out. Pt 2 is coming out July 2011, I believe.

Pretty much, I am excited for this next year of movies!

Favorite Song

So I've been watching the new show on ABC Family, Pretty Little Liars. I really like it, but my favorite part of the show is the theme song for it. So I decided to look in iTunes and try and find it..and I did. The song is called Secret by The Pierces. You have to check it out. It's a pretty awesome song. I downloaded a bunch of their songs because they have such a unique sound to them. I love it!!!!

Secret By: The Pierces

Got a secret
Can you keep it?
Swear this one you'll save
Better lock it, in your pocket
Taking this one to the grave
If I show you then I know you
Won't tell what I said
Cause two can keep a secret
If one of the m is dead…

Why do you smile
Like you have told a secret
Now you're telling lies
Cause you're the one to keep it
But no one keeps a secret
No one keeps a secret
Why when we do our darkest deeds
Do we tell?
They burn in our brains
Become a living hell
Cause everyone tells
Everyone tells…

Got a secret
Can you keep it?
Swear this one you'll save
Better lock it, in your pocket
Taking this one to the grave
If I show you then I know you
Won't tell what I said
Cause two can keep a secret
If one of the m is dead…

Look into my eyes
Now you're getting sleepy
Are you hypnotized
By secrets that you're keeping?
I know what you're keeping
I know what you're keeping

Got a secret
Can you keep it?
Swear this one you'll save
Better lock it, in your pocket
Taking this one to the grave
If I show you then I know you
Won't tell what I said
Cause two can keep a secret
If one of the m is dead…

[spoken]
Alison?
Yes, Katherine.
I have something I want to tell you, but
you have to promise to never tell anyone.
I promise
Do you swear on your life?
I swear on my life

[end spoken]

You swore you'd never tell…
You swore you'd never tell…

You swore you'd never tell…
You swore you'd never tell…

Got a secret
Can you keep it?
Swear this one you'll save
Better lock it, in your pocket
Taking this one to the grave
If I show you then I know you
Won't tell what I said
Cause two can keep a secret
If one of the m is dead…
(chorus x 3)

Yes two can keep a secret
If one of us is…. Dead.

Happy Fathers Day, Mom!

I'm lucky to have a mom who is so amazing that she plays the role of the father. My mom is always there for me. She is my biggest supporter. So I just wanted to say how much I love my mom and Happy Fathers Day, Mom!!!

I'm Home!

I finally have gotten all of my stuff back to my moms house. I can't even express the exciting running through my body now that I am back home. I was having so many anxiety attacks and depression going on at my apartment. Once my roommate Erin told me she was officially going back to California, I knew I wouldn't be able to stay in that apartment with two girls who don't speak English. As I lay in my bed, I think back on how much I have learned in just a few months of living on my own. It was such a great learning experience for me to get away and branch out. It was both a great and stressful. I had laughs and I had tears. Through and through, I AM HOME! I can clean the kitchen and it actually stay clean for more than 5 minutes, I can watch T.V. and not have guys coming in and out of my house, I can sleep at night w/o having someone coming in and out of my room. Ah the feeling of my own room and not being around annoying roommates. Yay!!!

As a wise girl once said, "There's no place like home!"

So Sad

Yesterday around 3 p.m. a girl who lives in my apartment complex was raped and beating within an inch of her life. It literally happened right behind my apartment. I have not been able to stop thinking about this. When those terrible things were going on, I was sitting in my apartment, watching T.V. and having fun. If only I could have heard anything I might have been able to stop it. It just frustrates me that people can be so disgusting and do such things to young and talented young women. I couldn't stop thinking about this so I thought maybe if I came to my moms and get away from the crime scene and all of the cops asking questions, maybe I wouldn't think about it so much. It's not working out the way I wanted it to. My thoughts and prayers go out to the victim and her family. She is a true hero for fighting for her life.

The Hunger Games Series

Once again I have finished reading The Hunger Games Series. Whenever I find myself not wanting to read, I pick up these books. Once I start reading, I can't put them back down. I always try and picture myself as Katniss and think to myself how in certain situations I would do somethings different, but I know that whatever she does, she does for a reason. One thing in particular really bugs me is how she treats her mother sometimes. I understand that she is mad at her mom for the way she treated her and Prim after their father died, but come on, you are holding a grudge for way to long there. Personally, I love both Peeta AND Gale. I think they are both great and amazing characters. I do think that Gale is the right guy for Katniss. I'm Team Gale, if you would say haha. If you haven't read these books yet, here's some advice... GO and read them. They are so intriguing and you will be hooked from page one. My favorite books of all time..

I have heard that they are making a movie of this as well. They are going to be making a decision of a director this sumer and start filming in January 2011. The movie would be released later in 2011.

The first book is The Hunger Games and the second is Catching Fire. The third book Mockingjay will be out in August (and yes I already have it pre-ordered ha).

Beautiful Weather

This summer weather has been so beautiful. You would have never thought that it snowed just a few weeks ago. My mom and I went to Jordan Landing this afternoon, the weather was incredible. I can't express how much happier I am when it's summer. In my moms backyard all of the flowers are blooming and our garden is starting to grow.

In just a few weeks we will finally going camping. I haven't gone camping since last July. It's going to be so great to go out into the woods. SO excited.
This is me and Alex last summer camping.

Hoggle Zoo

On Thursday I was able to go to the Hoggle Zoo with my cousin Jordan and Alex. It had been years since I have been there. The last time I was there, the zoo seemed so much bigger. It felt like since we were all older, that the zoo only took us about an hour and half to go around the whole thing and shop. It was quite fun though. Here are some fun pictures from our little trip to the zoo.

Work Out

Finally went to the gym today! I pushed myself enough to get ready and head to gold's. I did a 2 mile workout on the elliptical. I rocked it so hard I had sweat dripping off of me. It was such a great workout. Then I came back to my apartment and went straight over to the club house with Erin and played racquetball for an hour. Holy cow, I had forgotten how fun it is to play and what a workout too. We were sweating so bad! It got to the point where I was sitting on the ground trying to scoot and hit the ball from down there. Didn't really work out as well as I had hoped it would have. But it was fun to get a really good workout in today. Hopefully tomorrow I can push myself again to go to the gym and go play racquetball again.
