Job.

Because this consumes my entire life....
I'm blogging about this.
Lame.
I know.

I work at SkyWest Airlines, in case you didn't know.
It's actually kind of fun.
I'm an administrative assistant to the Director of Customer Relations.
Mouthfull.
Basically:
I answer the phone, type some nice letters and some rejection letters, and log and file stuff.
Secretary to the max.
But I love it.
Even though I have to work 40 hours a week.
And while everyone is out at the lake and doing fun things,
I'm cooped up inside.
Working.
The ladies I work with are hilarious.
Carrie, Cassie and Linda make my life so interesting.
They give me advice on everything from boys to beer.
Yep.
I'm the only LDS person in my department.
I love it.
Seriously.
I love them.
And my boss, Kelly, is AMAZING!
I love her.
She's one of the most awesome ladies ever.
She is such a "sweet tart" (her famous words for describing someone nice).
She even brought us all Starbucks yesterday cause she's just cool like that.

Poopy phone pictures of my office. Lame. I know. But I love it. And it's not usually this dark. It was raining this day.

Anyways.
Sorry this post isn't very exciting.
I blogged most of this last night waiting for my flight to Boston.
Whatta day.
4 hours of sleep.
4 mondo blisters.
And a whole bunch of walking.
But SO worth.
Post about that later...
Peace.

Cliff.

Sometimes, your friends persuade you to go cliff jumping.
So you do.
And then they pressure you to do scary things...
Like jump off a 55 foot cliff.
And hey.
You gotta impress those cute boys.
So you do.
You end up in with bruises and cuts since you slapped the water so hard.
But you weren't a chicken.
So you're proud.
And the thrill was so amazing that you can't wait to go again.

Yeah.
I know how you feel.

Cliff jumping = my anti-drug.

Grand.

First item of business:
Happy 1-year anniversary to the blog.
It's been a grand year full of many sick times and post-worthy events.
Hopefully there are many more to come.

Second item of business:
I'm sorry I haven't blogged much.
I've been so busy with work and play,
I haven't even had time to take pictures.
Shocking, I know.
Usually i'm all over that.
I've been too busy playing soccer and flag football and swimming and hitting some sand volleyball,
I haven't had time to whip out the cam.
But here's one of the grand times we had last week.
I went with the South Dakota kids (Abs and Ben and Issac and Ash),
To Krave.
Saw Davis and Alexa.
It was grand indeed. :]

Third item of business:
Sunday I went to the Grand Canyon with the family.
Minus Brad.
It was extremely grand.
Windy.
But what a beaut.
Good times at the Canyon.

More summer adventures to follow. :]

Home.

"Everyone goes home after their Freshman year."
That's what Ray said to Ash and I last night as we were jumping on the tramps.
And it got me thinking.
I didn't want to be one of those people.
AT ALL.
I wanted to move back to my grandparents and work in NY.
I fought coming home every step of the way.
I was miserable the first week.
BUT.
I know there's a reason I came home.
I needed to learn how to work.
I believe I needed to spend one more summer with my family.
And.
I needed to come home to my friends.
I've missed them A LOT.
And so far, this summer has been great.
And we still have so many more crazy things to accomplish.
So.
Therefore.
As much as I miss BYU:
The atmosphere,
The roommate,
The dorm life,
The friends,
The late night talks,
The besties,
The crazy road trips,
The J-Hall boys....
I'm glad I came home.
It's been great.
Luff you all.
Peace.
Blessings.

Burned.

Events of life.
Work: 50 hours this week.
Workout: 3 hours this week (I NEED MORE)
Netflix: 7 hours this week
Burned: to a crisp from running the outdoor art show all day (it's HIDEOUS. It's not a nice smooth tan line causing one either).

Volunteering: at Ace Hardware (awesome).
Reception: beautiful.
Friends: reunited.
All in all:
Rachel is a beaut.
I'm a lobster.
And I love these people.

Speeding.

Since no new events have happened in my life,
Here's a song.
To all of us growing up too fast.

Here's the day you hoped would never come
Don’t feed me violence, just run with me
Through rows of speeding cars
The paper cuts, the cheating lovers
The coffee’s never strong enough
I know you think it’s more than just bad luck

There, there, baby
It’s just text book stuff
It’s in the ABC of growing up
Now, now, darlin’
Oh don’t lose your head
'Cause none of us were angels
And you know I love you, yeah

Sleeping pills, no sleeping dogs lie never
Far enough away
Glistening in the cold sweat of guilt
I’ve watched you slowly winding down for years
You can’t keep on like this
Now is as bad of time as any

There, there, baby
It’s just text book stuff
It’s in the ABC of growing up
Now, now, darlin’
Oh don’t kill yourself
'Cause none of us were angels
And you know I love you, yeah

It’s okay by me
It’s okay by me
It’s okay by me
It was a long time ago

It’s okay by me
It’s okay by me
It’s okay by me
It was a long time ago

There, there, baby
It’s just text book stuff
It’s in the ABC of growing up
Now, now, darlin’
Oh don’t lose your head
'Cause none of us were angels
And you know I love you, yeah

There, there, baby
It’s just text book stuff
It’s in the ABC of growing up
Now, now, darlin’
Oh, don’t kill yourself
'Cause none of us were angels
And you know I love you, yeah
