these past days have been crazy. brando came in friday. we hung out. on saturday we went up to slc to find him a place to live. we found a house that a bunch of these guys are renting out. its a couple of minutes from the U. saturday night the family came in. i went to a bonfire. i met this kid from boston who has family in rochester that i know! i couldnt believe it. i know his cousins and his uncle. what a small world!
sunday i spent the day with the family. we went to this place called timpenogas caves. it was a mile in a half hike up a mountain then you have a tour in these caves, it was pretty neat.
monday we all went to slc to move brando in to his new place. we went to this really cool restaurant called the mayan. its a mexican themed place. they have people who do these really cool dives into a pool while your eating. then we came back and went to the pool and hot tub. then i went and watched a movie with a bunch of kids.
today i had freshman orientation at 10. they had booths to go to, free stuff and they had a presentation. i got a UV shirt because i answered a question. what is the mascots nickname? willy.
school tom.!!

yesterday i got my haircut and went to the bank. then i went and got pizza with crystal, sheena and michelle. the pizza guy gave us free breadsticks!! what a nice guy. then we came back and watched 16 candles. then i talked with dylan. he was having a bad night and was kind of mad.
someone from bimington, ny called me today at 7am! i know because i looked up the phone number on the internet and that is where it was from. i was so pissed off. they were looking for "franny". it was some old lady. i went and gave plasma today. i got there at 12 and didnt leave till 430 because i had to fill out all this paperwork and have a physical. but i get 25 bucks in cash each time i go. its just like giving blood. except about 15 minutes longer. i can go twice a week. so thats cool. 200 bucks a month!! :-D
.:brando comes in late late tonight or tom. morning:.

yesterday i helped move dylan and trask from their old rooms to their new ones. its in the same complex but a different building. we began at 12 and got done moving stuff at 4. then we bought pizza and took a break and then set up the rooms. then a bunch of us watched a movie in their new apartment.
today i worked from 12-5. i got a pretty bad headache so i took my migraine pills which are loaded with caffeine then i drank a mountain dew so this whole night i have been super hyper. i went to the movies with michelle, crystal and sheena. we saw "the stepford wives" it was .50 cent tuesday! then we chilled at crystal's apartment. then i went over to dylans to chill with him.

.:Hurricane chaley sucks:.
saturday i worked from 4-11. then a bunch of us from work went to walmart to get a bunch of candy then we went to rochelle's house to watch "how to lose a guy in 10 days." i love that movie. sunday i worked. it went by so slow.
dylan came home last night! i missed him. he bought me these cool chinese balls that you have to roll around your hand with out making a noise. it helps with stress. im so glad he's home now. im going to help him move out of his room into another one that he's moving to with all the guys he's made friends with.
so the family is delayed two days on coming out. my dad, grandpa, uncle and brando all went down to pine island to go work on the house since its got a big whole in the roof. my dad said all the trees are gone on pine island and you can see for miles and miles. its so sad, thats my second home basically. everything is just ruined. so my dad is just going to fly straight from florida to utah and meet my mom. and my brother is flying home so he can drive out cuz he has all his stuff. my great grandma is ok, my great uncle got a hold of the place she was living at and talked to the nurses.

i think i've got a cold. i've been really sick lately and dont have alot of energy.
the family comes out this week!! i am so excited. i miss them so much.
so pine island is pretty much ruined right now because of hurricane charley. there not letting any one on the island inless you show proof that your a resident and you have to find you own way to get to your house because the road is basically impossible to travel on because of trees and power lines all over the place. our neighbor called and said theres trees all over our property and he said the roof looks like it needs to be fixed. so my dad is planning on going down after utah to check it out. my grandma and grandpas house is ok though. their neighbor called and said everything is fine except for trees all over the place. my great grandma is in one of those assisted living places and since the electric is out we havnt been able to contact her so we dont know how she's doing.
on another note. im coming home october 27. i have a break from school so i'll be home for 2 days. then im driving my car out with my mom. so if anyone is going to be home october 27/28 then let me know!
yesterday i went to the gas station to fill the air in my bike and i couldnt get it and i ended up missing the bus. right after i missed the bus dylan pulls in to get gas. i couldnt believe it. good timing. so he took me to work. he's in cali right now with his family. he'll be home tom. night.

friday i worked from 11-5. then came home and cleaned my room. it looks pretty good. :-) then i went with dylan, trask and peggy for a bonfire. it was huge. it was also really hot and you couldnt stand close to it at all.
saturday i had to wake up early and go to work at 8 o'clock. it sucked because i havnt woken up that early in a long time. i got out around 5. then i went on a date with chad who lives in the apartment next to me and is 21. we went with chelsea and von. he was so nice. he always opened the car door for me. we went to this pretty cool italian place for dinner. then we went to the movies and saw napoleon dynamite, which was made by a lds guy. it was pretty good. a different kind of movie.
today i went to church then had a nap which felt so nice to just sleep. then i had to work from 4-10. which went by pretty slow. im going to tacobell with dylan and i have to pay because i lost a bet that we had going.

i got an A in history!! woo wee...im so excited. maybe if i actually studied in high school and had a little effort i could of done a whole lot better. oh well. im 99% positive that i got an A in public speaking also. so thats good.
i have been working a lot lately. i told them once school begins i can only work during the day on saturday. bc i dont want to be working during the week and on weekend nights. last night i saw "troy" with dylan, tim and jake. it was pretty good. then chilled with dlyan till about 3ish. then went to bed. and worked today from 11-4. it went by pretty quickly. after work i finally did laundry and bought food. i had no food and was getting sick of fast food and eating at work.
12 days till brandon is out in utah!! i can not wait.
14 days till my family is out here for a week! i miss them so much. i always feel like there is a piece of me missing being away from them and home. i love it out here and dont want to move back but i just miss my family alot. and everyone else. especially the poker crew.

saturday i played raquetball with dylan. then went to work. afterwards i went to dylans apartment and we watched a movie. i fell asleep during it. every single time that we have watched a movie one of us falls asleep during it. if its not me its him. its getting to be tradition now whenever we watch movies.
i just realized that i spend a lot of time with dylan. basically the only time i dont see him is when im sleeping, at class or studying. at work i see him and we're always hanging out.
BRANDO COMES HOME TOMORROW!!! woowee i am so excited. i havent seen him in two years. i cant believe hes coming home. i cant wait to talk to him. i miss him so much.

salt lake was alot of fun. dylan's brother had these really big bean bags called love sac's that we slept on. they were so comfy. friday we went to the great salt lake. we did this thing called skim boarding. you get a surf board look alike which is about 2 1/2 feet long and about a foot wide. you have to get in really shallow water. then you run throw it in the water and then jump on it. you go really far. it is so much fun. i wanna do it again. the only thing i didnt like about it was the water. i have never had so much salt on me after i got done swimming. it also stung really bad if you got the water in your eyes. it was so salty.
i worked from 5-1130 last night. it went by pretty quickly. then i went to salt lake with dylan, victoria, brian, jake, and clint. we went to this club vortex.
