I'm just too excited.

Exactly one month until...



Then 3 days after that I'm headed to...

NEW YORK CITY!

which means...

Macy's thanksgiving Parade

lots of shopping

and best of all...

My favorite little boys in the world...I CAN'T WAIT!

why, why, WHY...

do shoes have to be so expensive?? Seriously, it just breaks my heart when I find a beautiful pair of shoes and it is priced way out of my budget. That was the story of my life while shopping online yesterday...
$96.00
$182.00
$91.00
$91.00
$100.00
$91.00

And the biggest heartbreak...
$495.00


But the good news is that I worked reeeeally hard on my mid-term paper for history and finished it a week and a half early...so proud of myself. I'm going to DSW tomorrow.

my week...

~Remember those "Fortunately, Unfortunately" books that you read in Elementary school? Well I decided that format is the best way to describe my exciting week.~

SUNDAY:
Fortunately, me, dad, and Hayley were going to get to spend quality time together while Mom, Rex, and Nina went to Disneyland.

Unfortunately, I was up all night with an achey body, sore throat, and pounding head ache.

MONDAY:
Fortunately, I was still living from a terrible night.

Unfortunately, I couldn't lift my head or get out of bed.

Fortunately, my dad found some Tylenol PM so I could sleep the whole day.

Unfortunately, it didn't work.

TUESDAY:
Fortunately, I got my self out of bed, in the shower, and to school.

Unfortunately, I only made it through one class and came home.

Fortunately, I was able to sleep when I got home.

Unfortunately, I had an orthodontist appointment and got rubber bands, which caused even more pain then I was already in.

Fortunately, my dad brought home Samurai Sam's.

Unfortunately, he forgot to bring me some.

Fortunately, there was an Office marathon on.

Unfortunately, my mouth and head were throbbing the whole time I was watching it and I got a terrible fever.

WEDNESDAY:
Fortunately, I have a sweet sister who let me sleep with her, because she knows how I hate to be alone when I'm sick.

Unfortunately, her balcony door was a little bit open and a bug got in and decided to bite me 6 times and leave HUGE, ugly, super itchy, red marks.

Fortunately, I had a really comfortable, bug free, bed to lay in all day.

Unfortunately, I was alone again.

Fortunately, my dad brought me a delicious smoothie during lunch and mashed potatoes from KFC for dinner...perfect for a sick girl with sore teeth.

Unfortunately, I still had my raging fever when it was time for bed.

THURSDAY:
Fortunatley, I woke up fever-less and ready to go to school and work.

Unfortunately, I was a little out of it and grabbed a fully heated flat iron right on the metal part and burned my fingers.

Fortunately, I left for school only 5 mintues later than I should have.

Unfortunatley, my car was empty.

Fortunately, I had Celine to help me through the morning.

Unfortunately, I couldn't sing along because of my sore throat.

Fortunatley, I had really confortable Sinister sweats to wear on this cold/windy/sick morning. (Thanks Tandrea)

Unfortunately, I forgot my hand sanatizer.

Fortunately, mom, Rex, Nina, cousins, my aunt, and her friends were here when I got home at the end of the day.

... as you can see, it was kind of a tough week and I've decided I'm going to reward myself with a new pair of shoes. I think I deserve some. Don't you agree? Fortunately I'm going to up to Provo with Hayley to visit Brooke tomorrow. I miss her a lot and I'm way excited. Unfortunately it's Provo...and cold. Fortunately I don't have to live there...only visit for a few days. :)
