ALOHA HAWAII part 1

Marukame Udon was our first stop on the island.  My mom is a bit obsessed


Trying new, foreign food in the form of curry noodles and deep fried you name it?? Yes PLEASE

I slept in at the hotel while the rest walked about 4 miles to Leonard's for some sugary goodness. I felt a little like a princess. 






My favorite person to be at beaches with, sitting next to on a plane, scanning passports, getting in fights with, crossing oceans, talking about deep stuff, watching sunsets and laughing with. Gosh I'm going to miss her on my mission. Ruby-we better do one last trip just for old times! ;)  No really look at Skyscanner right now I saw a trip for.....okay just text me



I tried to stop my dad from doing this, but he did it. He bought a pizza box full of nachos for sixteen bucks. It was the kind of nachos we make at home-store bought cheese, canned salsa. We laughed so hard and the "Nacho Incident" was an inside joke and source of teasing for my dad throughout the rest of the trip. 
The Hyatt also offered free classes in lei making, hula and ukulele. Auntie April, the teacher, was a hysterical combination of impatient, sarcastic, curt, nice, talkative, grandmotherly and mean teacherness..... it was highly entertaining. After beginning out the class making fun of us and being rude about the schedule, she said "Now lei making is an act of love and the circle represents the feelings of kindness you feel in making one." I about died. It was so ironically hysterical. 








As some of you may know, Ruby and I are quite the traveling companions. Sometimes we refer to each other as Mary-Kate and Ashley. (I'm Mary-Kate, Ruby's Ashley)  On several occasions we've looked at each other, bewildered, and said "We are so much cooler than Mary-Kate and Ashley." Walking into our resort hotel was one of those moments. We don't need hollywood or flings with boys or a private jet, we're the real Mary-Kate and Ashley! Golda Cristine and Ruby!!





Free and Ari got a brand spankin' new Swatch that are super chic, and took lots of trips to the Swatch store to decide on. I decided to wait until I get my call to buy one

View from our room. Life was goooooooooood.
I look at this and think YAY! 
Spam musubi.  



My mom and her deep love for bacon/avacado spam wrapped in seaweed.
Araceli made this bikini out of a one-piece. I never thought I'd wear a bikini, but I wore it on the first day because it was vintage-y and yellow and I'm 18
Oh look, Marukame Udon again!
I do not know why I look so astonished

So my parents are off to Paris with Freestone and Tizzy. Lucky ducks! My grandparents are staying with us some of the time, but a lot of babysitting and homework is in-store for me this next week and a quarter so I was kinda stressed out. I spaced all my homework and remembered at 11 pm last night that I had a 100 question biology test, 2 Honors English assignments (That included reading) and 6 pages of math. So I woke up at 6, did it, planned to do the math during lunch and got ready in about 2.7 minutes. Luckily, I had tutorial so I went to get Algebra 2 help and finished that. Yay! And my science test turned out to be good, I could use notes and a textbook. I am so relieved right now and I think Heavenly Father helped a lot today. The Epic of Gilgamesh has nothin' on me today! :) PS Have fun in Paris guys! We'll miss you but not too much, I mean You're In Paris! :)

Happy New Year!

2014 will be a great year! It's 1:46 am right now so I will blog more tomorrow but I just can't believe it's January and the start of another brand new year! Yay for 2k14!!! On New Years Eve I went to a friends house to party! We watched Back to the Future and had treats, played games, and talked. We counted down, watched the ball drop, made fun of Miley Cyrus. There were a lot of people so it was really fun. On New Years Day we visited Nana, saw Frozen, went to Coco's and dad, mom and Ruby and I went to dinner. I'd been wanting to go to Rio Grande for awhile so we drove up to SLC. When we got there it was closed! So, change of plans, we went to Royal India in Bountiful instead. I'm so glad we did!! I love Indian food and it was delicious!! We got garlic, regular and a sweet naan and lamb sagg, coconut chicken and butter chicken and a mango lasse! Heaven. It was fun to just spend time with my parents and Ruby. They are really good about taking time to give u...
There are so many things that make up a person. I know that "things" isn't the right word, but I can't think of something that adequately describes what a person even  would  be made of. Dreams, accomplishments, interests, regrets, mistakes, wishes, relationships, etc. I love ballet. I want to teach ballet, and I want to dance ballet. It's part of who I am. But my heart also yearns for the actress side of me. The little bite of real acting that I got at the age of ten in a production of Babes in Toyland in Salt Lake City. The countless drives to Ogden for rehearsals of Music Man when I was twelve. The ten-hour dress rehearsals of Jana's plays throughout high school. I miss that. My heart yearns for the flute. The peak of my playing my Senior year when I was practicing daily and could play Carnival of Venice like a pro. When I began to see what my practicing had accomplished and considered going on to play in a symphony. I miss French. Learning an entire other ...
