Drugs and Alcohol Are Bad

******WARNING******* should not talk while under the infuence.

I am proof that drugs do crazy things to you... Last Thursday I had surgery on my knee. My dad took me to the hospital and wait while I had the procedure, and was with me in recovery. He being the genius man he is decided that he would write down all of the crazy things i said.. He even got a little voice recording on his phone because apparently i like to sing.. But just to prove to you that drugs do crazy things to you I will share a few of the best with you..

Me: is that my drink?
Dad: Yes
Me: Do you think that the nurse will bring me a beer?
Dad: probably not
Me: oh yeah it's against the law or something
Dad: Word of Wisdom
Me: Yeah that one, tell the nurse i can't have beer

Me: My favorite color is pink. It makes me very happy. What is your favorite color?
Dad: Blue
Me: Is that because of Jimmer Fredette? I hear he is a good player

Me: Drugs and alcohol are bad

Me: (to my dad and the nurse) I am going to play for the Jazz one day
Nurse: Really
Dad: Yeah really?
Me: Yeah dad, i am just that good. Haven't you seen me play? I didn't get that from you!

Me: If Superman and Nephi got in a fight, who would win?
Dad: Nephi
Me: Good Answer, he is my favorite

And for my personal favorite (other than the singing)

Me: Tell Uncle David he is crazy
Dad: Why?
Me: I don't even know.. I am just really worried about him. He lives so far away and works for that FBI (my uncle david lives in West Point and works for L3, but apparently i am very concerned)


All of these along will 3 whole pages of things are true. I am proof that drugs do bad things, and that they really do make you crazy. I wouldn't have believed it myself, but my dad recorded some of it. I sounded like i was a five year old. haha we have laughed for days. Let's just say that i wont be taking up any sort of habits anytime soon...

Food, Fun, and Fantastic Friends!

So, I have again decided to post something that I am grateful for, everyday for a week. I did this a few months ago and it helped me be more aware and appreciate the things that I have been blessed with.

Today I am thankful for three different things.. Food, Fun, and my Fantastic Friends.

For the last week, my family has been out of town. I have had the house all to myself, and it has been quite nice. The down side to this however is the fact that I have to make my own dinner... and for those of you who know me, know that I can't cook. So, I have had things like frozen pizza, pasta, and sandwiches. These things aren't too bad but they definitely aren't my mother's cooking! I am so grateful for my wonderful mom who takes time everyday to make sure that we have a nice home cooked meal.

Next is fun. While my parents have been away, I have had all sorts of fun. My cousin came and stayed with me for the whole weekend. We had so much fun together! I absolutely LOVE that girl! She cracks me up. We laughed so much, there wasn't a dull moment the entire weekend. We made crepes and two different desserts which turned out to be quite entertaining...Since neither of us cook. But it all turned out delicious! We went shopping and to lunch and just did whatever we felt like. I am so grateful that I have the opprotunity to have so much fun. Life is for living and enjoying and we all need to make time for fun! It makes the stressful time so much easier to deal with.

And finally my fantasitic friends!! I seriously have been blessed with the BEST friends in the entire world! I don't know what I did to deserve such amazing people. In the last few months I have gone through so tough stuff, and my friends have stayed by me through thick and thin. They have been there for me no matter what. Whether it is to hang out, listen to me vent, give me advice, or just cheer me up when I have had a bad day, they are always there! Even from across the world. My friends mean the world to me! Some of them are my family members, others might as well be. So, to all my friends, you know who you are! Thank you! You will never know how much you mean to me, and how much i truly appreciate your friendship!
