It looks over whelming, I KNOW. But I'm going to do it. If I miss a day.... don't be too disappointed. 

Here is the blog I found this fun challenge on! Story of my Life


Here is my story.  

 

 
I was raised in Mapleton Utah, and it was happy. I have 2 siblings, Amelia and Max. It was a carefree childhood, filled with Pokemon, Scooby Doo, Barbies, and the best neighborhood where there were so many fun kids and happy nights playing night games. My mom had a weekly routine, Mondays we (SHE) would clean the house. Tuesdays was shopping day. Wednesdays...... um.... huh. Thursdays was Grandma day, we would go to Grandmas house to visit and eat and watch cartoons. and Fridays was random day, we would just do the things that didn't get done the rest of the days. I think. 

I would spend hours and hours in the basement playing barbies with my best friend Sally. HOURS. HOURS. Junior High was my awkward years. but my sister still thought I was really cool. Once I got to high school, I had so many amazing friends. I spent all my time with any friend I could find, instead of being with my family, and I regret that. I love my family so much, and now, I want to see them everyday, and tell them all about what is going on every day every minute. I refrain mostly to not be annoying. I think it would get very redundant for them. I mean, my days don't change THAT much. haha.  

Now I go to UVU and I am in communications, and a AAS in graphic design. I am starting my 4th year at UVU this fall, and that is an ACCOMPLISHMENT. GO LIZA! I am married to the best man ever. He is amazing. I am really, so lucky. He makes me sandwiches and french toast, and chocolate banana shakes. Plus he is way good at warming up the bed. I am happy. and now that it is warming up I am getting even happier! I am OBSESSED with cats. I love them. I want them. or at least one....  or two.  cat.

bean blankies.

Zerts are what I call desserts. Tray-trays are entrees. I call sandwiches sammies, sandoozles, or Adam Sandlers. Air conditioners are cool blasterz, with a z. I don't know where that came from. I call cakes big ol' cookies. I call noodles long-ass rice. Fried chicken is fri-fri chicky-chick. Chicken parm is chicky chicky parm parm. Chicken cacciatore? Chicky catch. I call eggs pre-birds, or future birds. Gummy bars, are chewy cubs. Root beer is super water. Tortillas are bean blankies. And I call forks...food rakes.

cup.board. ?

thats how you really spell cupboard.

so the rumors are true, I'M PREGNANT.

wait.

hold on, wrong rumor   scratch that. [i'm pregnant] .... but the other one is that i moved back to mapleton, and that one is for sure true. don't ask about that first one..........................


so yeah, i moved myself out, moved myself in. done and done. i guess. i live in mapleton and stuff. i'm happy?
sure.

monday though, was great. i got up, did my sisters hair, and laid in bed for a while longer. then i cleaned and moved in all the way. its cute and stuff. then i went on a nice long fabulous bike ride! CAUSE THE WEATHER WAS JUST SO FREAKING NICE! it makes me so happy. it was for sure was picnic weather. it would have been a perfect picnic. so, after my imaginary picnic, i took a nap, read my book -harry potter. then mowed the lawn with max, annnnnnd [drum roll!!!!!!] i bought EIGHT books for SEVEN dollars! TADA! high-light of my day. i have 4 out of the 7 harry potter books, hard cover, and i only need 3 more to complete the set. exciting, no?
so in all, it was a very successful day.

day one? check.

if you love me baby, smile.

nerdnerdnerdnerdnerdnerd..... ready for this? starting april 28th i'm going to re-read all the harry potter books (cause april 28th is when my summer begins, suckers! unless you have an early summer too.. then you aren't a sucker.) annnnyways. i will finish by the end of the summer, with time to spare. i still count guys in glasses when i pass them at school. today the count was 17. but i still have about 2 more hours... so.... k. today i fell walking up the stairs. like, it wasn't just a trip. it was a fall. (probably more of a trip, but i like to exaggerate.) so, i fell.

by the way, ONE final down. ONE more at six tonight. THEN ONLY TWO MORE. then i'm all done. ALL DONE PEOPLE. i just can't wait. also, when i grow up i was going to be a teacher. buuut. i hate school. so why did i think i could go back and actually teach it? that usually means and hour earlier AND a hour later than everyone else! i don't think i will do that. so instead i am getting a bachelors in communications, emphasis in speech communication. i feel a lot better about that than teaching. so i start that great adventure in the fall.

i'm moving home in 6 FREAKING DAYS. i don't know how to feel about that. the guy sitting across from me in the library keeps laughing and talking to himself. i'm pretty sure he is casting spells. they are probably really funny ones too. you know whats funny? pressing the "spell check" button and seeing all my wrongly spelled words light up in yellow. DING. (it doesn't like it when i use ALL CAPS EITHER.) i really want to go camping.


glasses count: 19. WAIT. k. 20.

worst birthday. APRIL FOOLS! it was seriously one of the best ever. so happy. like, i've had some pretty rockin' birthdays. this once......................... when i was little, i got a bike. a beautiful bike. oh, i was so excited. it was purple and teal, and it had streamers on the handles, beads on the spokes, and freaking cool training wheels. perrrfect bike guys. the best part was, waking up to it IN MY BEDROOM. i woke up to my litter sister sitting with my bike, and telling me happy birthday! it was so happy. later that day my dad brought me birthday balloons, like, tons of them. it was impressive for sure. we had a lot of fun with them, like we would tie them to those old green carton basket things that strawberries would come in, and put little things in them and float them around the house. along with things like spatulas and a hand lemon squeezer. so great, really. this other time.......................... in high school, my very best friends had every one of my teachers give me a different present, and they even got the hottest of the choir boys to sing to meee!!!!! yesssssss! and also.................... last year, i spent my birthday in india with some of the greatest people i will ever know. its prrrrretty cool, right?
this birthday is going in the list of awesome birthdays. it started at midnight with my roommate Marissa, we watched tangled, did some sweet P90X and drank tea. mmmmm so great. i woke up and it was sunny and amazing and megan brought me pie, i had lunch with my mom and dad (cute boys eat at cafe rio) annnnd trevor came from logan and spent the afternoon with me! we drew with chalk, played guitar at the park, sat on the swings, watched the sky, and rode bikes all over town!!!! that was all i wanted. to ride my bike. in the sun. and i got it. we also went to village inn and watched funny youtube videos. then i ate some pie and talked to gregory.

also, i have a few things figured out. the 31st was a good day for that. 19 is going to rock out, love.
