Emily got married yesterday and it was an amazing wedding. I loved every minute of it. It was a party! It makes it hard for me to not want to get married anytime soon after seeing her and Jeremiah so incredibly happy. I want that for myself so bad but there are so many other things that I want before that and Im still 19, except I feel like a granny, with no money, that has been going to school for 10 years and isn't getting anywhere. How does that sound? haha. But anyways, yes, the wedding was great. Im so glad that I was able to go and even happier that I was a bridesmaid :) Although I wore 4 inch heels, I was surprisingly confident in how tall I was and it didn't really bother me. So Emily...thank you for that. It was super hot at the temple so by the time me and the rest of the bridesmaids got to the luncheon (which by the way took forever to get to because we kinda got lost. Don't know how that happened because its on the same street as the temple) we were super thirsty. Thankfully, the waitresses placed giant classes of cold lemonade in front of us. It was so good. We downed like 5 cups in like 15 minutes. Kinda sad. The food was delicious and it was fun to talk to the girls and get to know them. After the luncheon we had a couple hours to do whatever so we went bowling! But before we went bowling we went to walmart to get socks and decorations for the car. Everyone gave us weird looks because we were all wearing the same thing and the guys were too haha. It was fun though. So we went bowling and it was girls against guys. We won...both times! I hadn't been bowling in forever. I loved it. All the people in the wedding party were so fun to be around. We had a good time. Then came the reception. Everyone had their own jobs and mine was to take charge of greeting people and telling them to sign the guest book. I did that for about an hour. It had started raining so everyone went indoors but it made it very memorable. I still think that it was an amazing reception. When it stopped raining, people went outside again. Emily and Jeremiah cut the cake and threw it in each others faces (cutest thing ever) and then we did dancing and the bouquet and garter toss. Have I ever mentioned how much I LOVE weddings?! They are the best. I could go on about this wedding but wont. And they lived happily every after....the end.
So my parents dropped me off at the airport like 40 minutes ago and I don't know why but I just started crying. Have you ever just started crying out of nowhere and had no idea why but you cant control yourself?! Yeah thats what happened. Its weird. And right now I just feel weird. I don't know whats gotten into me. Maybe it's the idea that i'm sitting in the airport on 9/11 and a bunch of creepy old men keep looking at me? I don't know. Oh, ok, so Im C 22 in line to board which means that Im going to be like the last one on with no place to put my bags and Im gonna be stuck in the middle of two big old fat guys. Thats normally how it goes right? haha. Or maybe Ill sit next to the nice missionary. We'll see I guess.
Oh and you know those high heel toms that are being sold? I thought they looked kinda strange online but I just saw a lady wearing them and they were actually super cute on! You probably just have to find the right color. I think some colors would be weird. I don't know, thats just me.
OHHH! I remember something big that has happened to me in the last 2 weeks. I hiked Mount Timpanogos! Thats a big deal. It was the first weekend here. It was kind of a spur of the moment idea. Aliese was on a date that night so I hung out with the roommates. We talked, got to know each other, went to Panda Express and then came home. Danny (a friend of my roommates) said that she had been invited to go hike Timp with some random people so...an hour later we got picked up by people we didn't know and drove to the bottom of the mountain. We got picked up at like 12:15 and started hiking at like 1:00am. I didn't really know what I was getting myself into until we had been hiking for a couple hours already. I didn't think it was that intense of a hike. Turns out it is a 6 hour one-way hike. I had no idea. I actually thought it was a joke but I was wrong. So we get closer and closer to the top and it gets colder and colder. The higher we went, the more layers I put on. The entire time it was pitch black and i had no idea what my surroundings were. We got pretty close to the top and took the wrong trail and started trekking through ice haha. It was an adventure. It wasn't till we were in the middle of an ice bowl till we realized that we went the wrong way because we saw other hikers lights shining from a different trail. We were probably 30 minutes from the top so we were a little sad haha. We just chilled there to wait for the sunrise. The boys had brought blankets and food. They were so prepared. They gave the girls like all of it while they suffered. It made me realize that there really are good guys out there! We waited for a while but it was taking forever so we starting walking back and thats when the sun came out and it started warming up and OH MY GOSH was it gorgeous. Green everywhere, streams, lakes, mountain goats, flowers, waterfalls, trees...you name it. It was like the sound of music or something and you could see for miles! Im so sad that I didn't have my camera. On the way back, the group kinda split into a fast group and a small group but not on purpose. I was in the fast group and my camera was in a backpack with my roommate in the slower group. Oh well. During the hike I told myself I would never do it ever again because it was so long but when I could actually see what I was going through, and now after finishing it, I think I would go again. I would go just for the pictures haha. It was amazing. We got back at 10am and Aliese was really confused because she woke up and we still weren't home! She thought we died or something. So after pulling an all nighter, hiking for 10 hours, we got home, I took a shower and then Aliese and I went to a ward activity at Rock Canyon Park. It was just a BBQ but I was so exhausted. I wanted the good free food though haha. I met a ton of people in our ward so Im glad I went. When we got home, our house was dead for the rest of the day. I think Aliese got a little bored. Oh well! So that was the Mount Timp adventure!
This post was all over the place and Im pretty sure there were a lot of errors but Im so done with it so Im not going to fix anything. Sorry haha.
