It seems I only blog when I fall ill...


So, there has been some pretty great recent activity happening in the life of me...my life.. this thing I call my own.

Halloween happened. It was pretty funny. All my roomates and I dressed up as the Spice Girls! It actually turned out pretty awesome. We all fit our part so well. Becky has red hair and a sassy attitude, so obviously, she was Ginger Spice. We also found this shiny dress that was a Union Jack flag. Awesome, no? Nikole has dark curly hair. So, we put it in corn rows, left it for a few days and then took it out and hair-sprayed it until it was HUGE! Then she took it to the next level and put dark face makeup on so she looked Black. Then she dressed herself in head to toe leopard. Legit huh? Janae has baby blue eyes and long blond hair. Just guess who she was. Yup, you got it. Baby Spice. Then Sarah, the sporty one dressed up in track pants and a t-shirt. I was so jealous. I was Posh Spice, so basically, all black, uncomfortable stilettoes, and dark makeup. The best part was when the DJ at the Dance played "Stop Right Now" and all 5 of us got up on stage and danced in front of 300 people. It was so rad! By the end of the night, we were getting compliments all over the place and none of us could stop talking in British accents. Mine was the best, but thats just my opinion. Haha. By the end of the night. I was so ready to be a slob. I hunkered down in a t-shirt and a bowl of halloween candy in my lap.

Last Saturday, my friend Sarah got baptized. We just recently became friends. It was such a blessing to see her so happy. I know that she knows who she is. That is truly a wonderful thing to witness in the life of a close friend.

Next was...hmm, let me see. Oh yeah, it was the Masquerade Ball. Some girls in my ward organized this huge party. It was so awesome. You had to have a mask and be dressed in formal wear to get in. It was so much fun. All of us dressed up and looked super good! A friend of Nikole, Janae and Sarah's came up from Utah to see Sarah get baptized. Greg taught Sarah her first discussion. It was cool for him to come. Oh, and by my persuasive ways, he danced. It was quite something! Haha. I hope you are reading this Greg, hahahaha.

Now, for the great news. I got promoted. As you know, I currently work at La Senza in the mall just as a Team Lead, but there is a new store opening up. It's going to be a super centre. Now, I am being transferred but that is not all. I am going to be the Assistant Manager of the store. Which totally rocks my socks off. Hello pay raise, hello awesome resume. Hello world, welcome your newest business savy lady! I'm a workin' woman now!

  4. I'm wondering why we were never friends when all this went down because we pretty much live parallel lives and danced the night away at all these dance extravaganzas.
