I. LOVE. MY. JOB!!! Best job in the world! It's like I'm not even working! This week I am required to take pictures of students studying outside, students on the new library patio, and the Rugby practices. So I went to practice today and it was so much fun. Rugby is an interesting sport and one I can easily fall in love with. I haven't taken any football pictures yet, but I think I'll like Rugby more because you get more facials.
Anyway, that was a sneak peek of pictures. I took over 1,000 pictures at their practice today. I was also supposed to go photograph this foam party... Yeah that never happened. Ha! My roommates made it there before I did and they were drenched, then some friends came running out and they said it was crazy, that everything was wet. So there was no way I was going in there with my camera! Sorry Greg, I'll photograph a different stomp.
So this weekend is Labor day weekend, and I'm stuck at the school. I have dance practices everyday except for sunday. Saturday and Monday practices are 6 HOURS long!!! We're all going to die! That is forever to dance!! So I can't wait for this weekend to be done with.
COLLEGE!!! Crazy stuff! I'm so old! It's super weird living with roommates and not having the same classes every other day and not seeing all the same faces, but I love it! I get to do my own laundry and make my own food! Oh wait... I already did that before! Haha! There are way more mature people at college. None of that silly high school stuff. Tonight I watched 6 people run around a pool table hitting the balls together and giggling like 5 year olds! I see skate boards, long boards and bikes more than cars and just the other day my friends and I watched a beehive float down a river. I think I've actually become more of a kid! We had a "snow day" and had hula hoops, inflatable toys, and a slip n slide!
Anyway! I have this awesome job where I just take pictures! It's amazing and its so not a job! This picture was taken about 20 minutes from Nephi in a little place called Uinta National Park. If you enter then there is a little river and a small man made waterfall, but that isn't even the best part! (it's just where I got the best picture!) If you drive for about 7 miles up this road then eventually you see a sign that says Devil's Kitchen! Most amazing place! Not ever, just that I've seen here. It's seriously a mini bryce canyon. Colton and I just sat there amazed then I started taking pictures. It was red rock and on one side the sky was light blue and on the other there were dark storm clouds.
That's one thing I love about Ephraim, it rains. I think it's rained, thundered, and lightninged? every night that I've been here. It's in between 2 mountain ranges and so there are always clouds that are threatening to cry on us. I love it. I am so glad that I decided to come down here!
Oh yeah! I've grown up. My room has always been clean and I make my bed once I've gotten out of the bathroom in the mornings!
This picture is just beautiful to me! I love love love the lighting! It just all worked out perfectly. This was in an old abandoned house also. It was completely trashed. Not like weathered, but just junk everywhere! We found a magazine that was from like 1964. Crazy Stuff.
Anyway, today I woke up to a friend request on facebook, her name is Mikelle Ostler. Turns out she'll be my roommate! She looks super cute and fun! So I guess I won't get stuck with an overweight emotional girl that cries constantly. I'm super excited for college! I'm ready to leave and live on my own, make my own decisions, make new friends and most of all.... TAKE PICTURES! I'm so so so excited for football! Those will be fantastic! I LOVE sports photography especially football! Oh my! I just can't wait!
Another great thing... I went to mutual. I can't remember the last time I went, but we played fugitive! We started at the firehouse on Bountiful Boulevard and ran to the church on Davis. It was crazy, I haven't ran that far in a while but my father and I got caught... But it was so much fun, except it was still light outside. Whatever, we're playing again next weekend but in the dark! It's my favorite night game now.
I absolutely love abandoned houses! All the ones that where built forever ago and everyone just up and left. This one was pretty awesome. There were two bedrooms, a kitchen and a front room. The bathroom was outside... But there was plumbing in the house and electricity... In one of the rooms the floor had collapsed into the cellar. There was a stable behind it, dirt floor, and we found a super old broom in it. Haha I was a little confused, did they sweep the dirt? Who knows.
I am so excited to go down to Ephraim! Hopefully there will be tons of old places down there! And tractors! Lately I have found tons of tractors around Bountiful because of the pipeline going in. I just want one more than ever!
I even passed my AP english tests! I got 3's on both and I was so excited and surprised at the same time!
I was looking back at older posts because, obviously, I hadn't been on for like 3 months... I remember all about Dance Company. Ha fun, not. I look back at it now and I'm glad I did it. It was hell at the end but after the concert it was easy and a class I looked forward to, mostly because she let us leave early. My life is amazing now. It was so hard and I struggled but I made it! I graduated, I passed my AP tests, and I've finished a government class at the U. I can't wait for college, but I also don't want this summer to end! This is definitely the best summer so far!
Tabitha recently got a bunion removed... She just barely got the stitches out and was told she could swim, but she was scared of keeping it in the water. Her heel is filled with fluid! It's nasty but this explains her life... The look and all.
Brilliant picture! Thank you Colton Kilpack for the idea. I love that you can see the "Bic" and the firework in the background. This is one that the more I look at it, the more I love it.
Lucky Tabi found a cookie that says hi!! You can see her excitement with her hooker make up!
